Kings III 2
1 And the days of David drew near that he should die: and he addressed his son Solomon, saying, I go the way of all the earth:
Torej Davidovi dnevi so se približali, da naj bi umrl in svojemu sinu Salomonu je naročil, rekoč:
2 but be thou strong, and shew thyself a man;
»Jaz grem pot vse zemlje. Bodi torej močan in se izkaži moža
3 and keep the charge of the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, to keep the commandments and the ordinances and the judgments which are written in the law of Moses; that thou mayest understand what thou shalt do in all things that I command thee:
in ohrani naročilo Gospoda, svojega Boga, da hodiš po njegovih poteh, da ohranjaš njegove zakone, njegove zapovedi, njegove sodbe in njegova pričevanja, kakor je zapisano v Mojzesovi postavi, da boš lahko uspeval v vsem, kar delaš in kamorkoli se obrneš,
4 that the Lord may confirm his word which he spoke, saying, If thy children shall take heed to their way to walk before me in truth with all their heart, [I promise thee], saying, there shall not fail thee a man on the throne of Israel.
da bo Gospod lahko nadaljeval svojo besedo, ki jo je govoril glede mene, rekoč: ›Če tvoji otroci pazijo na svojo pot, da hodijo pred menoj v resnici, z vsem svojim srcem in z vso svojo dušo, tebi ne bo odrezan, ‹ je rekel, ›noben mož na Izraelovem prestolu.‹
5 Moreover thou knowest all that Joab the son of Saruia did to me, what he did to the two captains of the forces of Israel, to Abenner the son of Ner, and to Amessai the son of Jether, that he slew them, and shed the blood of war in peace, and put innocent blood on his girdle that was about his loins, and on his sandal that was on his foot.
Poleg tega tudi veš, kaj mi je storil Cerújin sin Joáb in kaj je storil dvema poveljnikoma Izraelove vojske, Nerovemu sinu Abnêrju in Jeterjevemu sinu Amasáju, ki ju je ubil in vojno kri prelil v miru in vojno kri položil na svoj pas, ki je bil okrog njegovih ledij in na njegove čevlje, ki so bili na njegovih stopalih.
6 Therefore thou shalt deal [with him] according to thy wisdom, and thou shalt not bring down his grey hairs in peace to the grave. (Sheol h7585)
Stori torej glede na svojo modrost in ne dopusti, da bi njegova osivela glava šla v miru dol v podzemlje. (Sheol h7585)
7 But thou shalt deal kindly with the sons of Berzelli the Galaadite, and they shall be among those that eat at thy table; for thus they drew nigh to me when I fled from the face of thy brother Abessalom.
Toda izkazuj prijaznost sinovom Gileádca Barzilája in naj bodo izmed tistih, ki jedo pri tvoji mizi, kajti tako so prišli k meni, ko sem pobegnil zaradi tvojega brata Absaloma.
8 And, behold, [there is] with thee Semei the son of Gera, a Benjamite of Baurim: and he cursed me with a grievous curse in the day when I went into the camp; and he came down to Jordan to meet me, and I swore to him by the Lord, saying, I will not put thee to death with the sword.
Glej, s seboj imaš Šimíja, Gerájevega sina, Benjaminovca iz Bahuríma, ki me je preklinjal z bolečim prekletstvom na dan, ko sem odšel v Mahanájim, toda prišel je dol, da me sreča pri Jordanu in prisegel sem mu pri Gospodu, rekoč: ›Ne bom te usmrtil z mečem.‹
9 But thou shalt by no means hold him guiltless, for thou art a wise man, and wilt know what thou shalt do to him, and shalt bring down his grey hairs with blood to the grave. (Sheol h7585)
Zdaj ga torej ne imej brez krivde, kajti moder človek si in veš, kaj mu moraš storiti, temveč njegovo osivelo glavo s krvjo privedi dol k podzemlju.« (Sheol h7585)
10 And David slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David.
Tako je David zaspal s svojimi očeti in bil pokopan v Davidovem mestu.
11 And the days which David reigned over Israel [were] forty years; he reigned seven years in Chebron, and thirty-three years in Jerusalem.
Dni, ko je David kraljeval nad Izraelom, je bilo štirideset let. Sedem let je kraljeval v Hebrónu, triintrideset let pa je kraljeval v Jeruzalemu.
12 And Solomon sat on the throne of his father David, and his kingdom was established greatly.
Potem se je Salomon usedel na prestol svojega očeta Davida in njegovo kraljestvo je bilo silno utrjeno.
13 And Adonias the son of Aggith came in to Bersabee the mother of Solomon, and did obeisance to her: and she said, Dost thou enter peaceably? and he said, Peaceably:
Hagítin sin Adoníja je prišel k Salomonovi materi Batšébi. Rekla je: »Prihajaš miroljubno?« Rekel je: »Miroljubno.«
14 I have business with thee. And she said to him, Say on.
Poleg tega je rekel: »Nekaj ti imam povedati.« Rekla je: »Povej.«
15 And he said to her, Thou knowest that the kingdom was mine, and all Israel turned their face toward me for a king; but the kingdom was turned [from me] and became my brother's: for it was [appointed] to him from the Lord.
Rekel je: »Veš, da je bilo kraljestvo moje in da je ves Izrael svoje obraze naravnal name, da naj bi jaz kraljeval, vendar se je kraljestvo zaobrnilo in postalo bratovo, kajti njegovo je bilo od Gospoda.
16 And now I make one request of thee, do not turn away thy face. And Bersabee said to him, Speak [on].
Sedaj od tebe prosim eno prošnjo, ne zavrni me.« Rekla mu je: »Povej.«
17 And he said to her, Speak, I pray thee, to king Solomon, for he will not turn away his face from thee, and let him give me Abisag the Somanite for a wife.
Rekel je: »Spregovori, prosim te, kralju Salomonu (kajti ne bo ti rekel ne), da mi da za ženo Šunémko Abišágo.«
18 And Bersabee said, Well; I will speak for thee to the king.
Batšéba je rekla: »Dobro, zate bom govorila kralju.«
19 And Bersabee went in to king Solomon to speak to him concerning Adonias; and the king rose up to meet her, and kissed her, and sat on the throne, and a throne was set for the mother of the king, and she sat on his right hand.
Batšéba je torej šla h kralju Salomonu, da mu govori za Adoníja. Kralj je vstal, da jo sreča in se ji priklonil, se usedel na svoj prestol in dal postaviti sedež za kraljevo mater in usedla se je na njegovo desnico.
20 And she said to him, I ask of thee one little request; turn not away my face from thee. And the king said to her, Ask, my mother, and I will not reject thee.
Potem je rekla: »Od tebe želim eno majhno prošnjo, prosim te, ne reci mi ne.« Kralj ji je rekel: »Vprašaj, moja mati, kajti jaz ti ne bom rekel ne.«
21 And she said, Let, I pray thee, Abisag the Somanite be given to Adonias thy brother to wife.
Rekla je: »Naj bo Šunémka Abišága dana tvojemu bratu Adoníju za ženo.«
22 And king Solomon answered and said to his mother, And why hast thou asked Abisag for Adonias? ask for him the kingdom also; for he [is] my elder brother, and he has for his companion Abiathar the priest, and Joab the son of Saruia the commander-in-chief.
Kralj Salomon je odgovoril svoji materi in rekel: »Zakaj prosiš za Adoníja Šunémko Abišágo? Prosi zanj tudi kraljestvo, kajti on je moj starejši brat; celo zanj in za duhovnika Abjatárja in za Cerújinega sina Joába.«
23 And king Solomon swore by the Lord, saying, God do so to me, and more also, [if it be not] that Adonias has spoken this word against his own life.
Potem je kralj Salomon prisegel pri Gospodu, rekoč: »Bog naj mi tako stori in še več, če ni Adoníja te besede spregovoril zoper svoje lastno življenje.
24 And now [as] the Lord lives who has established me, and set me on the throne of my father David, and he has made me a house, as the Lord spoke, this day shall Adonias be put to death.
Zdaj torej kakor živi Gospod, ki me je utrdil in me postavil na prestol mojega očeta Davida in ki mi je naredil hišo, kakor je obljubil, bo ta dan Adoníja usmrčen.«
25 So king Solomon sent by the hand of Banaeas the son of Jodae, and he slew him, and Adonias died in that day.
Kralj Salomon je poslal po roko Jojadájevega sina Benajá in ta je padel nanj, da je umrl.
26 And the king said to Abiathar the priest, Depart thou quickly to Anathoth to thy farm, for thou art worthy of death this day; but I will not slay thee, because thou hast borne the ark of the covenant of the Lord before my father, and because thou was afflicted in all things wherein my father was afflicted.
Duhovniku Abjatárju pa je kralj rekel: »Pojdi v Anatót, k svojim lastnim poljem, kajti vreden si smrti, toda tokrat te ne bom usmrtil, ker pred mojim očetom Davidom nosiš skrinjo Gospoda Boga in ker si bil prizadet v vsem, s čimer je bil prizadet moj oče.«
27 And Solomon removed Abiathar from being a priest of the Lord, that the word of the Lord might be fulfilled, which he spoke concerning the house of Heli in Selom.
Tako je Salomon vrgel ven Abjatárja, da ne bi bil duhovnik Gospodu, da je lahko izpolnil Gospodovo besedo, ki jo je govoril glede Élijeve hiše v Šilu.
28 And the report came to Joab son of Saruia; for Joab had turned after Adonias, and he went not after Solomon: and Joab fled to the tabernacle of the Lord, and caught hold of the horns of the altar.
Potem so do Joába prišle novice, kajti Joáb se je obrnil za Adoníjem, čeprav se ni obrnil za Absalomom. Joáb je pobegnil h Gospodovemu šotorskemu svetišču in se oprijel oltarnih rogov.
29 And it was told Solomon, saying, Joab has fled to the tabernacle of the Lord, and lo! he has hold of the horns of the altar. And king Solomon sent to Joab, saying, What ails thee, that thou hast fled to the altar? and Joab said, Because I was afraid of thee, and fled for refuge to the Lord. And Solomon sent Banaeas son of Jodae, saying, Go and slay him, and bury him.
To je bilo povedano kralju Salomonu, da je Joáb pobegnil v Gospodovo šotorsko svetišče in glej, pri oltarju je. Potem je Salomon poslal Jojadájevega sina Benajá, rekoč: »Pojdi, padi nanj.«
30 And Banaeas son of Jodae came to Joab to the tabernacle of the Lord, and said to him, Thus says the king, Come forth. And Joab said, I will not come forth, for I will die here. And Banaeas son of Jodae returned and spoke to the king, saying, Thus has Joab spoken, and thus has he answered me.
Benajá je prišel v Gospodovo šotorsko svetišče ter mu rekel: »Tako govori kralj: ›Pridi naprej.‹« Rekel je: »Ne, temveč bom tukaj umrl.« Benajá je kralju ponovno prinesel besedo, rekoč: »Tako je rekel Joáb in tako mi je odgovoril.«
31 And the king said to him, Go, and do to him as he has spoken, and kill him: and thou shalt bury him, and thou shalt remove this day the blood which he shed without cause, from me and from the house of my father.
Kralj mu je rekel: »Stôri, kakor je rekel, padi nanj in ga pokoplji, da boš lahko od mene in od hiše mojega očeta odvzel nedolžno kri, ki jo je prelil Joáb.
32 And the Lord has returned upon his own head the blood of his unrighteousness, inasmuch as he attacked two men more righteous and better than himself, and slew them with the sword, and my father David knew not of their blood, [even] Abenner the son of Ner the commander-in-chief of Israel, and Amessa the son of Jether the commander-in-chief of Juda.
Gospod bo njegovo kri povrnil na njegovo lastno glavo, ker je padel na dva moža, pravičnejša in boljša kakor on in ju umoril z mečem, moj oče David pa ni vedel o tem, namreč Nerovega sina Abnêrja, poveljnika Izraelove vojske in Jeterjevega sina Amasája, poveljnika Judove vojske.
33 And their blood is returned upon his head, and upon the head of his seed for ever: but to David, and his seed, and his house, and his throne, may there be peace for ever from the Lord.
Njuna kri se bo torej povrnila na Joábovo glavo in na glavo njegovega semena na veke, toda nad Davidom, nad njegovim semenom, nad njegovo hišo in nad njegovim prestolom bo mir na veke od Gospoda.«
34 So Banaeas son of Jodae went up, and attacked him, and slew him, and buried him in his house in the wilderness.
Tako je Jojadájev sin Benajá odšel gor, padel nanj, ga usmrtil in pokopan je bil v svoji lastni hiši v divjini.
35 And the king appointed Banaeas son of Jodae in his place over the host; and the kingdom was established in Jerusalem; and [as for] Sadoc the priest, the king appointed him to be high priest in the room of Abiathar. And Solomon son of David reigned over Israel and Juda in Jerusalem: and the Lord gave understanding to Solomon, and very much wisdom, and largeness of heart, as the sand by the sea-shore.
Na njegovo mesto, čez vojsko, je kralj postavil Jojadájevega sina Benajá, na Abjatárjevo mesto pa je kralj postavil duhovnika Cadóka.
Kralj je poslal in poklical Šimíja ter mu rekel: »Zgradi si hišo v Jeruzalemu in tam prebivaj in ne hodi kamorkoli od tam.
Kajti tako bo, da na dan, ko pojdeš ven in preideš potok Kidron, boš zagotovo vedel, da boš zagotovo umrl. Tvoja kri bo na tvoji lastni glavi.«
Šimí je rekel kralju: »Ta beseda je dobra, kakor je rekel moj gospod kralj, tako bo tvoj služabnik storil.« In Šimí je mnogo dni prebival v Jeruzalemu.
Pripetilo pa se je ob koncu treh let, da sta dva izmed Šimíjevih služabnikov pobegnila k Maahájevemu sinu Ahíšu, kralju iz Gata. Šimíju so povedali, rekoč: »Glej, tvoja služabnika sta v Gatu.«
Šimí je vstal, osedlal svojega osla in šel v Gat, k Ahíšu, da poišče svoja služabnika. Šimí je odšel in svoja služabnika privedel iz Gata.
To je bilo povedano Salomonu, da je Šimí iz Jeruzalema odšel v Gat in ponovno prišel nazaj.
Kralj je poslal in dal poklicati Šimíja ter mu rekel: »Mar te nisem primoral, da prisežeš pri Gospodu in ti izpričal, rekoč: ›Zagotovo vedi, na dan, ko greš ven in hodiš kakorkoli naokoli, da boš zagotovo umrl?‹ In rekel si mi: ›Beseda, ki sem jo slišal, je dobra.‹
Zakaj se potem nisi držal Gospodove prisege in zapovedi, ki sem ti jo naročil?«
Kralj je poleg tega Šimíju rekel: »Ti poznaš vso zlobnost, ki je znana tvojemu srcu, ki si jo storil mojemu očetu Davidu, zato bo Gospod tvojo zlobnost povrnil na tvojo lastno glavo
in kralj Salomon bo blagoslovljen in Davidov prestol bo pred Gospodom utrjen na veke.«
Tako je kralj zapovedal Jojadájevemu sinu Benajáju, ki je odšel ven in padel nanj, da je ta umrl. In kraljestvo je bilo utrjeno v Salomonovi roki.
