1 Chronicles 11
1 Then all Israel gathered themselves to David to Hebron, saying, “Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.
Då kom heile Israel i hop hjå David i Hebron og sagde: «Du veit me og du er same folket.
2 In times past, even when Saul was king, it was you who led out and brought in Israel. Yahweh your God said to you, ‘You shall be shepherd of my people Israel, and you shall be prince over my people Israel.’”
Alt longe sidan, då Saul endå var konge, var du den som førde Israel. Og til deg hev Herren din Gud, sagt: «Du skal vera ein hyrding for Israel, folket mitt, ja, du skal vera ein hovding yver mitt folk Israel.»»
3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before Yahweh. They anointed David king over Israel, according to Yahweh’s word by Samuel.
Då so alle styresmennerne i Israel kom til kongen i Hebron, gjorde David eit samband med deim der i Hebron for Herrens åsyn, og sidan salva dei David til konge yver Israel, etter Herrens ord gjenom Samuel.
4 David and all Israel went to Jerusalem (also called Jebus); and the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, were there.
Og David for med heile Israel til Jerusalem, det er Jebus; der var jebusitarne, som endå var att i landet.
5 The inhabitants of Jebus said to David, “You will not come in here!” Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion. The same is David’s city.
Og Jebus-buarne sagde til David: «Du kjem ikkje inn her.» Men David tok like vel Sionsborgi, det er Davidsbyen.
6 David had said, “Whoever strikes the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain.” Joab the son of Zeruiah went up first, and was made chief.
Og David sagde: «Den som fyrst drep ein jebusit, kven det so er, han skal verta hovding og herførar.» Og Joab, son åt Seruja, kom fyrst upp, og vart då hovding.
7 David lived in the stronghold; therefore they called it David’s city.
Sidan sette David seg til i borgi; difor kalla dei henne Davidsbyen.
8 He built the city all around, from Millo even around; and Joab repaired the rest of the city.
Og han bygde byen rundt umkring, frå Millo og heilt ikring, og Joab bygde upp att det andre av byen.
9 David grew greater and greater, for Yahweh of Armies was with him.
Og Davids velde auka Davids velde stødt og stendigt, og Herren, allhers drott, var med honom.
10 Now these are the chief of the mighty men whom David had, who showed themselves strong with him in his kingdom, together with all Israel, to make him king, according to Yahweh’s word concerning Israel.
Og dette er dei gjævaste kjemporne hans David, som gav honom kraftig hjelp, i lag med heile Israel, til å verta konge, til å gjeva honom kongedømet hans, etter Herrens ord um Israel.
11 This is the number of the mighty men whom David had: Jashobeam, the son of a Hachmonite, the chief of the thirty; he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them at one time.
Dette er talet på kjemporne hans David: Jasobam, son til hakmoniføraren for kjemporne; han svinga spjotet sitt yver tri hundrad, som vart drepne i ein gong.
12 After him was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, who was one of the three mighty men.
Og etter han kom Eleazar, son åt Dodo, ahohiten; han var ein av dei tri kjemporne.
13 He was with David at Pasdammim, and there the Philistines were gathered together to battle, where there was a plot of ground full of barley; and the people fled from before the Philistines.
Han var med David i Pas-Dammim, då filistarane hadde kome saman til strid, og der var ein åkerlapp fullgrodd med bygg; og folket rømde for filistarane.
14 They stood in the middle of the plot, defended it, and killed the Philistines; and Yahweh saved them by a great victory.
Då stødte dei seg upp midt på åkerleppen og varde honom og hogg ned filistarane, og Herren gav deim soleis ein stor siger.
15 Three of the thirty chief men went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam; and the army of the Philistines were encamped in the valley of Rephaim.
Ein gong for tri av dei tretti hovdingarne nedetter berget til David ved Adullams-helleren, medan ein flokk med filistar hadde lægra seg i Refa’imsdalen.
16 David was then in the stronghold, and the garrison of the Philistines was in Bethlehem at that time.
Men David var den gongen i borgi, og ein av filistarvaktpost var då i Betlehem.
17 David longed, and said, “Oh, that someone would give me water to drink from the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!”
Då fekk David brått ein sterk hug og sagde: «Å um einkvan vilde gjeva meg vatn å drikka utor brunnen som er attmed porten i Betlehem!»
18 The three broke through the army of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem that was by the gate, took it, and brought it to David; but David would not drink any of it, but poured it out to Yahweh,
Då slo dei tri seg gjenom filistarlægret og auste vatn utor brunnen ved porten i Betlehem, og tok og bar det åt David. Men David vilde ikkje drikka det, men helte det ut for Herren.
19 and said, “My God forbid me, that I should do this! Shall I drink the blood of these men who have put their lives in jeopardy?” For they risked their lives to bring it. Therefore he would not drink it. The three mighty men did these things.
For han sagde: «Gud late det aldri koma i mine tankar at eg skulde gjera slikt! Skulde eg drikka blodet av desse mennerne som hev våga livet? For med livs vågnad hev dei bore det hit.» Han vilde ikkje drikka det. Dette hadde dei tri kjemporne gjort.
20 Abishai, the brother of Joab, was chief of the three; for he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them, and had a name among the three.
Absai, bror hans Joab, var føraren for dei tri; han svinga spjotet sitt yver tri hundrad, som vart drepne. Og han var namngjeten millom dei tri.
21 Of the three, he was more honorable than the two, and was made their captain; however he wasn’t included in the three.
Han var ein gong til so mykje vyrd som nokon annan i dette tritalet, og han var hovdingen deira; men endå nådde han ikkje upp til dei tri fyrste.
22 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done mighty deeds, killed the two sons of Ariel of Moab. He also went down and killed a lion in the middle of a pit on a snowy day.
Benaja, son hans Jojada, som var son åt ein djerv og dådrik mann frå Kabse’el, han drap dei tvo Arielarne i Moab, og det var han som steig ned i brunnen ein snøversdag og slo i hel ei løva der.
23 He killed an Egyptian, a man of great stature, five cubits high. In the Egyptian’s hand was a spear like a weaver’s beam; and he went down to him with a staff, plucked the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and killed him with his own spear.
Han felte og den risestore egyptaren som var fem alner høg. Endå egyptaren hadde eit spjot i handi som liktest stor-riven i ein vev, so gjekk han imot honom, og hadde ikkje anna til verja enn staven sin. Og han rykte spjotet ut or handi på egyptaren og drap honom med hans eige spjot.
24 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did these things and had a name among the three mighty men.
Dette hadde Benaja Jojadason gjort. Og han var namngjeten millom dei tri kjemporne.
25 Behold, he was more honorable than the thirty, but he didn’t attain to the three; and David set him over his guard.
Ja, han var meir vyrd enn nokon av dei tretti; men upp til dei tri fyrste nådde han ikkje. Og David sette honom til hovding yver livvakti si.
26 The mighty men of the armies also include Asahel the brother of Joab, Elhanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem,
