1 Krönikeboken 11
1 Och hele Israel samlade sig: till David i Hebron, och sade: Si, vi äre ditt ben och ditt kött.
All the Israelites gathered to meet with David in Hebron. They told him, “We are your flesh and blood.
2 Och tillförene, medan Saul var Konung, förde du Israel ut och in; så hafver ock Herren din Gud sagt till dig: Du skall föda mitt folk Israel, och du skall vara en Förste öfver mitt folk Israel.
In recent times, even though Saul was king, you were the real leader of Israel. The Lord your God told you, ‘You will be the shepherd of my people, and you will be the leader of my people Israel.’”
3 Kommo också alle Israels äldste till Konungen i Hebron. Och David gjorde ett förbund med dem i Hebron för Herranom. Och de smorde David till Konung öfver Israel, efter Herrans ord, genom Samuel.
All the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, and David made a solemn agreement with them before the Lord. There they anointed David as king of Israel, as the Lord had promised through Samuel.
4 Och David drog åstad, och hele Israel, till Jerusalem, det är Jebus; ty de Jebuseer bodde i landena.
Then David and all the Israelites went to Jerusalem (formerly known as Jebus) where the Jebusites lived.
5 Och de borgare i Jebus sade till David: Du skall icke komma härin. Men David vann den borgen Zion, det är Davids stad.
The Jebusites told David, “You will not enter here!” But David did capture the fortress of Zion, now known as the City of David.
6 Och David sade: Den som de Jebuseer först slår, han skall vara hufvud och öfverste. Då steg Joab, ZeruJa son, först upp, och vardt höfvitsmän.
David had said, “Whoever is first to attack the Jebusites will be my commander-in-chief.” Since Joab, son of Zeruiah, was the first, he became commander-in-chief.
7 Och David bodde på borgene; deraf kallar man henne Davids stad.
David decided to love in the fortress, which is why they named it after him the City of David.
8 Och han byggde staden omkring, ifrå Millo och sedan allt omkring; och Joab lät lefva dem som qvare voro i stadenom.
He built up the city all around it, from the Millo in a circuit all around, while Joab repaired the rest of the city.
9 Och David hade framgång, och kom sig före; och Herren Zebaoth var med honom.
David became more and more powerful, for the Lord Almighty was with him.
10 Desse äro de öfverste ibland Davids väldiga, de der manliga höllo med honom i hans rike, när hela Israel, så att man gjorde honom till Konung, efter Herrans ord, öfver Israel.
These were the leaders of David's powerful warriors who, along with all the Israelites, gave him strong support in becoming king, just as the Lord had promised would happen to Israel.
11 Och detta är talet på Davids väldiga män: Jasabeam, Hachmoni son, den ypperste ibland tretio; han hof sin spets upp, och slog trehundrad i en gång.
This is the list of the leading warriors who supported David: Jashobeam, son of Hachmoni, leader of the Three. Using his spear, he once killed 300 men in a single battle.
12 Näst honom var Eleazar, Dodo son, den Ahohiten, och han var ibland de tre väldiga.
After him came Eleazar, son of Dodo the Ahohite, one of the Three leading warriors.
13 Denne var med David, då de talade hädelse, och de Philisteer sig der församlat hade till strid; och var ett stycke åker fullt med bjugg, och folket flydde för de Philisteer.
He was with David at Pas-dammin when the Philistines gathered for battle that took place in a field full of barley. The Israelite army ran away when the Philistines attacked,
14 Och de trädde midt uppå åkerstycket, och undsatte det, och slogo de Philisteer; och Herren gaf en stor salighet.
but David and Eleazar took a stand in the middle of the field, defending their ground and killing the Philistines. The Lord saved them by giving them a great victory.
15 Och de tre utaf de yppersta tretio drogo neder till bergshällen till David, i den kulona Adullam; men de Philisteers lägre var i Rephaims dal.
Another time, the Three, who were part of the Thirty leading warriors, went down to meet David when he was at the cave of Adullam. The Philistine army was camped in the valley of Rephaim.
16 Och David var i borgene; och de Philisteers folk var på den tid i BethLehem.
At the time David was in the stronghold, and the Philistine garrison was in Bethlehem.
17 Och David fick lusta, och sade: Ho vill gifva mig dricka af det vattnet i den brunnen i BethLehem, under portenom?
David was feeling really thirsty, and he said, “If only someone could bring me a drink of water from the well beside the entrance gate to Bethlehem!”
18 Då slogo desse tre genom de Philisteers lägre, och hemtade vatten utu brunnen i BethLehem, under portenom, och båro till David. Men han ville icke drickat, utan utgöt det Herranom;
The Three broke through the Philistine defenses, took some water from the well at Bethelehem's gate, and brought it back to David. But David refused to drink it, and poured it out as an offering to the Lord.
19 Och sade: Det låte Gud vara långt ifrå mig, att jag detta göra skulle, och dricka dessa mäns blod i deras lifsfara; förty de hafva det hemtat med sins lifs fara; derföre ville han icke drickat. Det gjorde de tre hjeltar.
“God forbid that I should do this!” he said. “It would be like drinking the blood of these men who risked their lives! They risked their lives to bring me a drink.” So he did not drink it. This is just some of the things the Three leading warriors did.
20 Abisai, Joabs broder, han var den ypperste ibland tre, och han hof sin spets upp, och slog trehundrad, och han var beprisad ibland tre.
Abishai, Joab's brother, was leader of the second Three. Using his spear, he once killed 300 men, and became famous among the Three.
21 Och han den tredje härligare än de två, och var deras öfverste; men till de tre kom han icke.
He was the most highly regarded of the Three and was their commander, though he was not one of the first Three.
22 Benaja, Jojada son, IsHails sons, den mycket bedrifvit hade, af Kabzeel, han slog tu de Moabiters lejon; och gick neder, och slog ett lejon midt i brunnenom i snötiden.
Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, a strong warrior from Kabzeel, did many amazing things. He killed two sons of Ariel of Moab. He also went after a lion into a pit in the snow and killed it.
23 Han slog ock en Egyptisk man; han var fem alnar lång, och hade en spets i handene såsom ett väfträ; men han gick ned till honom med en staf, och tog honom spetsen utu handene, och drap honom med hans egen spets.
Another time he killed an Egyptian—a huge man who stood seven foot six inches tall. The Egyptian had a spear whose shaft was as thick as a weaver's rod. Benaiah attacked him with just a club, but he was able to grab the spear from the Egyptian's hand, and killed him with his own spear.
24 Det gjorde Benaja, Jojada son, och vardt beprisad ibland tre hjeltar;
These were the kind of things Benaiah did that made him as famous as the Three leading warriors.
25 Och var den härligaste ibland tretio; men till de tre kom han icke; honom gjorde David till sitt hemliga råd.
He was the most highly regarded of the Thirty, though he was not one of the Three. David put him in charge of his personal bodyguard.
