1 Samuel 30

1 Pripetilo se je, ko so David in njegovi možje na tretji dan prišli v Ciklág, da so Amalečani napadli jug in Ciklág in udarili Ciklág ter ga požgali z ognjem

Now when David and his men were come to Siceleg on the third day, the Amalecites had made an invasion on the south side upon Siceleg, and had smitten Siceleg, and burnt it with fire.

2 in ženske, ki so bile v njem, so zajeli [kot] ujetnice. Nobene niso usmrtili niti velike niti male, temveč so jih odvedli proč in odšli na svojo pot.

And had taken the women captives that were in it, both little and great: and they had not killed any person, but had carried them with them, and went on their way.

3 Tako so David in njegovi možje prišli k mestu in glej, to je bilo požgano z ognjem. Njihove žene, njihovi sinovi in njihove hčere pa so bili zajeti [kot] ujetniki.

So when David and his men came to the city, and found it burnt with fire, and that their wives and their sons, and their daughters were taken captives,

4 Potem so David in ljudstvo, ki je bilo z njim, povzdignili svoje glasove in jokali, dokler niso imeli več moči za jokanje.

David and the people that were with him, lifted up their voices, and wept till they had no more tears.

5 In dve Davidovi ženi sta bili zajeti [kot] ujetnici, Jezreélka Ahinóam in Abigájila, žena Karmelčana Nabála.

For the two wives also of David were taken captives, Achinoam the Jezrahelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal of Carmel.

6 David je bil silno zaskrbljen, kajti ljudstvo je govorilo o njegovem kamnanju, ker so bile duše vseh ljudi užaloščene, vsak mož zaradi svojih sinov in zaradi svojih hčera, toda David se je ohrabril v Gospodu, svojem Bogu.

And David was greatly afflicted: for the people had a mind to stone him, for the soul of every man was bitterly grieved for his sons, and daughters: but David took courage in the Lord his God.

7 David je duhovniku Abjatárju rekel: »Ahimélehov sin, prosim te, prinesi mi sèm efód.« In Abjatár je tja, k Davidu, prinesel efód.

And he said to Abiathar the priest the son of Achimelech: Bring me hither the ephod. And Abiathar brought the ephod to David.

8 David je poizvedel pri Gospodu, rekoč: »Ali naj sledim za tem krdelom? Ali jih bom dohitel?« Odgovoril mu je: »Zasleduj, kajti zagotovo jih boš dohitel in čisto gotovo vse povrnil.«

And David consulted the Lord, saying: Shall I pursue after these robbers, and shall I overtake them, or not? And the Lord said to him: Pursue after them: for thou shalt surely overtake them and recover the prey.

9 Tako je David odšel, on in šeststo mož, ki so bili z njim in prišli so k potoku Besór, kjer so ostali tisti, ki so ostali zadaj.

So David went, he and the six hundred men that were with him, and they came to the torrent Besor: and some being weary stayed there.

10 Toda David je zasledoval, on in štiristo mož, kajti dvesto jih je ostalo zadaj, ki so bili tako slabotni, da niso mogli prečkati potoka Besór.

But David pursued, he and four hundred men: for two hundred stayed, who being weary could not go over the torrent Besor.

11 Na polju so našli Egipčana, ga privedli k Davidu, mu dali kruha in je jedel in primorali so ga piti vodo.

And they found an Egyptian in the field, and brought him to David: and they gave him bread to eat, and water to drink,

12 Dali so mu košček figove kepe in dva grozda rozin. Ko je pojedel, je njegov duh ponovno prišel k njemu, kajti tri dni in tri noči ni jedel nobenega kruha niti ni pil nobene vode.

As also a piece of a cake of figs, and two bunches of raisins. And when he had eaten them his spirit returned, and he was refreshed: for he had not eaten bread, nor drunk water three days, and three nights.

13 David mu je rekel: »Komu pripadaš? In od kod si?« Rekel je: »Jaz sem mladenič iz Egipta, služabnik Amálečana in moj gospodar me je pustil, ker sem se pred tremi dnevi počutil bolnega.

And David said to him: To whom dost thou belong? or whence dost thou come? and whither art thou going? He said: I am a young man of Egypt, the servant of an Amalecite, and my master left me, because I began to be sick three days ago.

14 Naredili smo invazijo nad jug Keretéjcev in nad območja, ki pripadajo Judu in nad jug Kaléba in Ciklág smo požgali z ognjem.«

For we made an invasion on the south side of Cerethi, and upon Juda, and upon the south of Caleb, and we burnt Siceleg with fire.

15 David mu je rekel: »Ali me lahko privedeš dol k tej skupini?« Rekel je: »Prisezi mi pri Bogu, da me ne boš niti ubil niti me ne boš izročil rokam mojega gospodarja in jaz te bom odvedel dol k tej skupini.«

And David said to him: Canst thou bring me to this company? And he said: Swear to me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, nor deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring thee to this company. And David swore to him.

16 Ko ga je privedel dol, glej, bili so razširjeni nad vso zemljo, jedli, pili in plesali zaradi velikega plena, ki so ga vzeli iz filistejske dežele in iz Judove dežele.

And when he had brought him, behold they were lying spread upon all the ground, eating and drinking, and as it were keeping a festival day, for all the prey, and the spoils which they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Juda.

17 David jih je udarjal od večerne polteme do naslednjega dne in niti mož izmed njih ni pobegnil razen štiristo mladeničev, ki so jahali na kamelah in pobegnili.

And David slew them from the evening unto the evening of the next day, and there escaped not a man of them, but four hundred young men, who had gotten upon camels, and fled.

18 David je povrnil vse, kar so Amalečani odvedli proč in David je rešil svoji dve ženi.

So David recovered all that the Amalecites had taken, and he rescued his two wives.

19 Ničesar jim ni manjkalo, niti malega, niti velikega, niti sinov, niti hčera, niti plena, niti nobene stvari, ki so jim jih vzeli. Vse je David povrnil.

And there was nothing missing small or great, neither of their sons or their daughters, nor of the spoils, and whatsoever they had taken: David recovered all.

20 David je vzel vse trope in črede, ki so jih gnali pred tisto drugo živino in rekli so: »To je Davidov plen.«

And he took all the flocks and the herds, and made them go before him: and they said: This is the prey of David.

21 David je prišel k dvestotim možem, ki so bili tako slabotni, da niso mogli slediti Davidu, ki so jih primorali, da ostanejo pri potoku Besórju in odšli so naprej, da srečajo Davida in da srečajo ljudstvo, ki je bilo z njim in ko se je David približal ljudstvu, jih je pozdravil.

And David came to the two hundred men, who being weary had stayed, and were not able to follow David, and he had ordered them to abide at the torrent Besor: and they came out to meet David, and the people that were with him. And David coming to the people saluted them peaceably.

22 Potem so odgovorili vsi zlobneži in Beliálovi možje izmed tistih, ki so odšli z Davidom in rekli: »Ker niso odšli z nami, jim ne bomo dali od plena, ki smo ga povrnili, razen vsakemu možu svojo ženo in svoje otroke, da jih bodo lahko odvedli proč in odšli.«

Then all the wicked and unjust men that had gone with David answering, said: Because they came not with us, we will not give them any thing of the prey which we have recovered: but let every man take his wife and his children, and be contented with them, and go his way.

23 Potem je David rekel: »Ne boste tako storili, moji bratje, s tem, kar nam je Gospod dal, ki nas je zaščitil in v naše roke izročil skupino, ki je prišla zoper nas.

But David said: You shall not do so, my brethren, with these things, which the Lord hath given us, who hath kept us, and hath delivered the robbers that invaded us into our hands.

24 Kajti kdo vam bo prisluhnil v tej zadevi? Temveč kakor je njegov del tistemu, ki gre dol v bitko, tako bo njegov del tistemu, ki ostane pri stvareh. Enako si bosta razdelila.«

And no man shall hearken to you in this matter. But equal shall be the portion of him that went down to battle and of him that abode at the baggage, and they shall divide alike.

25 In tako je bilo od tega dne naprej, da je to naredil [za] zakon in odredbo za Izraela do tega dne.

And this hath been done from that day forward, and since was made a statute, and an ordinance, and as a law in Israel.

26 Ko je David prišel v Ciklág, je od plena poslal Judovim starešinam, torej svojim prijateljem, rekoč: »Glejte darilo za vas od plena Gospodovih sovražnikov;

Then David came to Siceleg, and sent presents of the prey to the ancients of Juda his neighbours, saying: Receive a blessing of the prey of the enemies of the Lord.

27 tistim, ki so bili v Betelu in tistim, ki so bili v južnem Ramátu in tistim, ki so bili v Jatírju

To them that were in Bethel, and that were in Ramoth to the south, and to them that were in Jether,

28 in tistim, ki so bili v Aroêrju in tistim, ki so bili v Sifmótu in tistim, ki so bili v Eštemói

And to them that were in Aroer and that were in Sephamoth, and that were in Esthamo,

29 in tistim, ki so bili v Rahálu in tistim, ki so bili v mestih Jerahmeélovcev in tistim, ki so bili v mestih Kenéjcev

And that were in Rachal, and that were in the cities of Jerameel, and that were in the cities of Ceni,

30 in tistim, ki so bili v Hormi in tistim, ki so bili v Bor Ašánu in tistim, ki so bili v Atáhu

And that were in Arama, and that were in the lake Asan, and that were in Athach,

31 in tistim, ki so bili v Hebrónu in k vsem krajem, kjer so se bili sam David in njegovi možje vajeni preganjati.«

And that were in Hebron, and to the rest that were in those places, in which David had abode with his men.
