Kings I 22

1 And David departed thence, and escaped; and he comes to the cave of Odollam, and his brethren hear, and the house of his father, and they go down to him there.

David je torej odpotoval od tam in pobegnil v votlino Adulám. Ko so njegovi bratje in vsa hiša njegovega očeta to slišali, so odšli dol, tja k njemu.

2 And there gathered to him every one that was in distress, and every one that was in debt, and every one that was troubled in mind; and he was a leader over them, and there were with him about four hundred men.

K njemu so se zbrali skupaj vsak, kdor je bil v stiski in vsak, kdor je bil v dolgu in vsak, kdor je bil nezadovoljen; in postal je poveljnik nad njimi in tam je bilo z njim okoli štiristo mož.

3 And David departed thence to Massephath of Moab, and said to the king of Moab, Let, I pray thee, my father and my mother be with thee, until I know what God will do to me.

David je od tam odšel v moábsko Micpo in moabskemu kralju rekel: »Naj moj oče in moja mati, prosim te, prideta naprej in bosta s teboj, dokler ne izvem kaj bo Bog storil zame.«

4 And he persuaded the King of Moab, and they dwell with him continually, while David was in the hold.

In privedel ju je pred moábskega kralja in prebivala sta z njim ves čas, ko je bil David v utrjenem kraju.

5 And Gad the prophet said to David, Dwell not in the hold: go, and thou shalt enter the land of Juda. So David went, and came and dwelt in the city of Saric.

Prerok Gad je rekel Davidu: »Ne prebivaj v utrjenem kraju. Odidi in pojdi v Judovo deželo.« Potem je David odrinil in prišel v gozd Heret.

6 And Saul heard that David was discovered, and his men with him: now Saul dwelt in the hill below the field that is in Rama, and his spear [was] in his hand, and all his servants stood near him.

Ko je Savel slišal, da so odkrili Davida in može, ki so bili z njim (torej Savel je prebival v Gíbei, pod drevesom v Rami, s svojo sulico v svoji roki in vsi njegovi služabniki so stali okoli njega),

7 And Saul said to his servants that stood by him, Hear now, ye sons of Benjamin, will the son of Jessae indeed give all of you fields and vineyards, and will he make you all captains of hundreds and captains of thousands?

je potem Savel rekel svojim služabnikom, ki so stali okoli njega: »Poslušajte torej, vi Benjaminovci, ali bo Jesejev sin vsakemu izmed vas dal polja in vinograde in vas vse postavil za poveljnike nad tisočimi in poveljnike nad stotimi,

8 That ye are conspiring against me, and there is no one that informs me, whereas my son has made a covenant with the son of Jessae, and there is no one of you that is sorry for me, or informs me, that my son has stirred up my servant against me for an enemy, as [it is] this day?

da ste se vsi izmed vas zarotili zoper mene in tam ni nikogar, ki mi kaže, da je moj sin sklenil dogovor z Jesejevim sinom in tam ni nikogar izmed vas, ki mu je žal zame ali mi kaže, da je moj sin zoper mene razvnel mojega služabnika, da preži v zasedi, kakor ta dan?«

9 And Doec the Syrian who was over the mules of Saul answered and said, I saw the son of Jessae as he came to Nomba to Abimelech son of Achitob the priest.

Potem je odgovoril Edómec Doég, ki je bil postavljen nad Savlove služabnike in rekel: »Videl sem Jesejevega sina prihajati v Nob, k Ahitúbovemu sinu Ahimélehu.

10 And [the priest] enquired of God for him, and gave him provision, and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.

Ta je od Gospoda povprašal zanj in dal mu je živež in dal mu je meč Filistejca Goljata.«

11 And the king sent to call Abimelech son of Achitob and all his father's sons, the priests that were in Nomba; and they all came to the king.

Potem je kralj poslal, da pokliče duhovnika Ahiméleha, Ahitúbovega sina in vso hišo njegovega očeta, duhovnike, ki so bili v Nobu in vsi izmed njih so prišli h kralju.

12 And Saul said, Hear now, thou son of Achitob. And he said, Lo! I [am here], speak, [my] lord.

Savel je rekel: »Poslušaj sedaj ti, Ahitúbov sin.« Ta je odgovoril: »Tukaj sem, moj gospod.«

13 And Saul said to him, Why have thou and the son of Jessae conspired against me, that thou shouldest give him bread and a sword, and shouldest enquire of God for him, to raise him up against me as an enemy, as [he is] this day?

Savel mu je rekel: »Zakaj sta se zarotila zoper mene, ti in Jesejev sin, v tem, da si mu dal kruha in meč in si od Boga poizvedel zanj, da bi on vstal zoper mene, da preži v zasedi kakor na ta dan?«

14 And he answered the king, and said, And who [is] there among all thy servants faithful as David, and [he is] a son-in-law of the king, and [he is] executor of all thy commands, and [is] honourable in thy house?

Potem je Ahiméleh odgovoril kralju in rekel: »Kdo je tako zvest med vsemi tvojimi služabniki kakor David, ki je kraljev zet in gre ob tvojem ukazu in je častitljiv v tvoji hiši?

15 Have I begun to-day to enquire of God for him? By no means: let not the king bring a charge against his servant, and against thee whole of my father's house; for thy servant knew not in all these matters anything great or small.

Ali sem takrat začel poizvedovati od Boga zanj? To bodi daleč od mene. Naj kralj ne pripiše kakršnekoli stvari svojemu služabniku niti vsej hiši mojega očeta, kajti tvoj služabnik ni vedel nič od vsega tega, manj ali več.«

16 And king Saul said, Thou shalt surely die, Abimelech, thou, and all thy father's house.

Kralj je rekel: »Zagotovo boš umrl, Ahiméleh, ti in vsa hiša tvojega očeta.«

17 And the king said to the footmen that attended on him, Draw nigh and slay the priests of the Lord, because their hand [is] with David, and because they knew that he fled, and they did not inform me. But the servants of the king would not lift their hands to fall upon the priest of the Lord.

Kralj je rekel pešcem, ki so stali okoli njega: »Obrnite se in ubijte Gospodove duhovnike, ker je tudi njihova roka z Davidom in ker so vedeli, ko je on pobegnil, pa mi tega niso pokazali.« Toda kraljevi služabniki niso hoteli iztegniti svoje roke, da pade na Gospodove duhovnike.

18 And the king said to Doec, Turn thou, and fall upon the priests: and Doec the Syrian turned, and slew the priests of the Lord in that day, three hundred and five men, all wearing an ephod.

Kralj je rekel Doégu: »Ti se obrni in padi nad duhovnike.« In Edómec Doég se je obrnil in padel nad duhovnike in jih na ta dan usmrtil petinosemdeset oseb, ki so nosili lanen efód.

19 And he smote Nomba the city of the priest with the edge of the sword, both man, and woman, infant and suckling, and calf, and ox, and sheep.

Nob, mesto duhovnikov, je udaril z ostrino meča, tako moške kakor ženske, otroke in dojenčke, vole, osle in ovce, z ostrino meča.

20 And one son of Abimelech son of Achitob escapes, and his name [was] Abiathar, and he fled after David.

Eden izmed Ahimélehovih sinov, Ahitúbov sin, imenovan Abjatár, pa je ušel in pobegnil za Davidom.

21 And Abiathar told David that Saul had slain all the priests of the Lord.

Abjatár je pokazal Davidu, da je Savel umoril Gospodove duhovnike.

22 And David said to Abiathar, I knew it in that day, that Doec the Syrian would surely tell Saul: I am guilty of the death of the house of thy father.

David je rekel Abjatárju: »Vedel sem to ta dan, ko je bil tam Edómec Doég, da bo zagotovo povedal Savlu. Povzročil sem smrt vseh oseb hiše tvojega očeta.

23 Dwell with me; fear not, for wherever I shall seek a place [of safety] for my life, I will also seek a place for thy life, for thou art safely guarded [while] with me.

Ostani z menoj, ne boj se, kajti kdor streže po mojem življenju, streže po tvojem življenju. Toda z menoj boš na varnem.«
