1 Samuel 10

1 Then Samuel took the vial of oil, and poured it upon his head, and kissed him, and said: 'Is it not that the LORD hath anointed thee to be prince over His inheritance?

Potem je Samuel vzel stekleničko olja in jo izlil na njegovo glavo ter ga poljubil in rekel: » Ali ni to zato, ker te je Gospod mazilil, da bi bil poveljnik nad njegovo dediščino?

2 When thou art departed from me to-day, then thou shalt find two men by the tomb of Rachel, in the border of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say unto thee: The asses which thou wentest to seek are found; and, lo, thy father hath left off caring for the asses, and is anxious concerning you, saying: What shall I do for my son?

Ko danes odideš od mene, potem boš našel dva moža ob Rahelinem mavzoleju, na meji Benjamina, ob Celcáhu; in rekla ti bosta: ›Oslice, ki si jih šel iskat, so najdene in glej, tvoj oče je zapustil skrb nad oslicami in se žalosti zaradi tebe, rekoč: ›Kaj naj storim za svojega sina?‹‹

3 Then shalt thou go on forward from thence, and thou shalt come to the terebinth of Tabor, and there shall meet thee there three men going up to God to Beth-el, one carrying three kids, and another carrying three loaves of bread, and another carrying a bottle of wine.

Potem boš šel naprej od tam in prišel boš do ravnine Tabor in tam boš srečal tri može, ki gredo gor k Bogu v Betel. Eden bo nosil tri kozličke, drugi bo nosil tri hlebe kruha in drugi bo nosil vinski meh.

4 And they will salute thee, and give thee two cakes of bread; which thou shalt receive of their hand.

Pozdravili te bodo in ti dali dva hleba kruha, ki ju boš sprejel iz njihovih rok.

5 After that thou shalt come to the hill of God, where is the garrison of the Philistines; and it shall come to pass, when thou art come thither to the city, that thou shalt meet a band of prophets coming down from the high place with a psaltery, and a timbrel, and a pipe, and a harp, before them; and they will be prophesying.

Potem boš prišel do Božjega hriba, kjer je garnizija Filistejcev in zgodilo se bo, ko prideš tja do mesta, da boš srečal skupino prerokov prihajati dol iz visokega kraja, s plunko, bobničem, piščaljo in harfo pred njimi, in oni bodo prerokovali.

6 And the spirit of the LORD will come mightily upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy with them, and shalt be turned into another man.

Gospodov Duh bo prišel nadte in prerokoval boš z njimi in spremenjen boš v drugega človeka.

7 And let it be, when these signs are come unto thee, that thou do as thy hand shall find; for God is with thee.

Naj bo, ko pridejo k tebi ta znamenja, da storiš, kakor se ti ponuja priložnost, kajti Bog je s teboj.

8 And thou shalt go down before me to Gilgal; and, behold, I will come down unto thee, to offer burnt-offerings, and to sacrifice sacrifices of peace-offerings; seven days shalt thou tarry, till I come unto thee, and tell thee what thou shalt do.'

Šel boš dol pred menoj v Gilgál, in glej, prišel bom dol k tebi, da darujem žgalne daritve in da žrtvujem žrtvovanje mirovnih daritev. Sedem dni boš čakal, dokler ne pridem k tebi in ti pokažem, kaj boš storil.«

9 And it was so, that when he had turned his back to go from Samuel, God gave him another heart; and all those signs came to pass that day.

Bilo je tako, da ko je obrnil hrbet, da bi odšel od Samuela, mu je Bog dal drugo srce in vsa ta znamenja so se zgodila tisti dan.

10 And when they came thither to the hill, behold, a band of prophets met him; and the spirit of God came mightily upon him, and he prophesied among them.

Ko so prišli tja do hriba, glej, ga je srečala skupina prerokov in Božji Duh je prišel nadenj in prerokoval je med njimi.

11 And it came to pass, when all that knew him beforetime saw that, behold, he prophesied with the prophets, then the people said one to another: 'What is this that is come unto the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?'

Pripetilo se je, ko so vsi, ki so ga poznali od prej, videli, da je, glej, prerokoval med preroki, potem je ljudstvo reklo drug drugemu: »Kaj je to, kar je prišlo h Kiševemu sinu? Ali je tudi Savel med preroki?«

12 And one of the same place answered and said: 'And who is their father?' Therefore it became a proverb: 'Is Saul also among the prophets?'

Nekdo iz istega kraja je odgovoril in rekel: »Toda kdo je njihov oče?« Zato je postal pregovor: »Ali je tudi Savel med preroki?«

13 And when he had made an end of prophesying, he came to the high place.

Ko je nehal prerokovati, je prišel na visok kraj.

14 And Saul's uncle said unto him and to his servant: 'Whither went ye?' And he said: 'To seek the asses; and when we saw that they were not found, we came to Samuel.'

Savlov stric je rekel njemu in njegovemu služabniku: »Kam sta odšla?« Rekel je: »Iskat oslice. Ko pa sva videla, da jih ni bilo nikjer, sva šla k Samuelu.«

15 And Saul's uncle said: 'Tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel said unto you.'

Savlov stric je rekel: »Povej mi, prosim te, kaj ti je Samuel rekel.«

16 And Saul said unto his uncle: 'He told us plainly that the asses were found.' But concerning the matter of the kingdom, whereof Samuel spoke, he told him not.

Savel je svojemu stricu rekel: »Pojasnil nama je, da so bile oslice najdene.« Toda o zadevi kraljestva, o kateri je govoril Samuel, mu ni povedal.

17 And Samuel called the people together unto the LORD to Mizpah.

Samuel je skupaj sklical ljudstvo h Gospodu v Micpo

18 And he said unto the children of Israel: 'Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel: I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and I delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all the kingdoms that oppressed you.

in Izraelovim otrokom rekel: »Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog: ›Izraela sem privedel iz Egipta in vas osvobodil iz roke Egipčanov in iz roke vseh kraljestev in od teh, ki so vas zatirali, ‹

19 But ye have this day rejected your God, who Himself saveth you out of all your calamities and your distresses; and ye have said unto Him: Nay, but set a king over us. Now therefore present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes, and by your thousands.'

vi pa ste ta dan zavrnili svojega Boga, ki vas je sam rešil vseh vaših nasprotnikov in vaših stisk in ste mu rekli: › Ne, temveč nad nami postavi kralja.‹ Sedaj se torej predstavite pred Gospodom po vaših rodovih in po vaših tisočih.«

20 So Samuel brought all the tribes of Israel near, and the tribe of Benjamin was taken.

Ko je Samuel vsem Izraelovim rodovom velel, da se približajo, je bil izbran Benjaminov rod.

21 And he brought the tribe of Benjamin near by their families, and the family of the Matrites was taken; and Saul the son of Kish was taken; but when they sought him, he could not be found.

Ko je Benjaminovemu rodu velel, da pride bliže po svojih družinah, je bila izbrana Matríjeva družina in izbran je bil Kišev sin Savel. Ko pa so ga iskali, ga niso mogli najti.

22 Therefore they asked of the LORD further: 'Is there yet a man come hither?' And the LORD answered: 'Behold, he hath hid himself among the baggage.'

Zato so naprej povpraševali od Gospoda, ali bi mož še moral priti tja. Gospod je odgovoril: »Glejte, skril se je med stvari.«

23 And they ran and fetched him thence; and when he stood among the people, he was higher than any of the people from his shoulders and upward.

Stekli so in ga vzeli od tam. Ko je stal med ljudstvom, je bil višji kakor katerikoli izmed ljudstva, od njegovih ramen navzgor.

24 And Samuel said to all the people: 'See ye him whom the LORD hath chosen, that there is none like him among all the people?' And all the people shouted, and said: 'Long live the king.'

Samuel je vsemu ljudstvu rekel: »Vidite koga je Gospod izbral, da tu ni podobnega njemu izmed vsega ljudstva?« Vse ljudstvo je zavpilo in reklo: »Živel kralj.«

25 Then Samuel told the people the manner of the kingdom, and wrote it in a book, and laid it up before the LORD. And Samuel sent all the people away, every man to his house.

Potem je Samuel ljudstvu povedal o načinu kraljestva in to zapisal v knjigo ter jo položil pred Gospoda. In Samuel je vse ljudstvo poslal proč, vsakega k svoji hiši.

26 And Saul also went to his house to Gibeah; and there went with him the men of valour, whose hearts God had touched.

Tudi Savel je odšel domov v Gíbeo in z njim je šla četa mož, čigar src se je Bog dotaknil.

27 But certain base fellows said: 'How shall this man save us?' And they despised him, and brought him no present. But he was as one that held his peace.

Toda Beliálovi otroci so rekli: »Kako nas bo ta človek rešil?« Prezirali so ga in mu niso prinesli daril. Toda on je ohranil svoj mir.
