1 Samuel 20
1 David ran away from [the] Naioth [section] of Ramah [city]. He went to Jonathan and asked him, “What have I done [to displease your father]? What did I do that was wrong? Why is he trying to kill me?”
David je pobegnil iz Najóta v Rami in prišel ter pred Jonatanom rekel: »Kaj sem storil? Kaj je moja krivda? Kakšen je moj greh pred tvojim očetom, da mi streže po življenju?«
2 Jonathan replied, “My father is surely not trying to kill you! He always tells me before he does anything that he is planning. He tells me about important things and unimportant things that he plans to do. (Why would he refuse to tell me [if he were planning to kill me]?/I am sure that he would not refuse to tell me [if he were planning to kill you].) [RHQ] So what you are saying cannot be true.”
Rekel mu je: »Bog ne daj. Ne boš umrl. Glej, moj oče ne bo storil ničesar, ali velikega ali malega, razen, da mi bo to pokazal. Zakaj bi moj oče to stvar skril pred menoj? To ni tako.«
3 Then David solemnly declared this to Jonathan: “Your father knows very well that you and I are very good friends, so he says to himself, ‘I will not tell Jonathan [what I am going to do]. If I tell Jonathan, he will be upset/distressed, [and then he will tell David].’ But just as certain as Yahweh lives and you live, I am only one step away from being killed.”
David je poleg tega prisegel in rekel: »Tvoj oče zagotovo ve, da sem našel milost v tvojih očeh.« Rekel je: »Naj Jonatan tega ne izve, da ne bi bil užaloščen, toda resnično, kakor živi Gospod in kakor živi tvoja duša, je samo korak med menoj in smrtjo.«
4 Jonathan said to David, “I will do whatever you tell me to do.”
Potem je Jonatan rekel Davidu: »Karkoli želi tvoja duša, celo to bom storil zate.«
5 David replied, “Tomorrow we will celebrate the Festival of the New Moon. I always eat with the king at that festival. But tomorrow I will hide in the field, and I will stay there for one night. I will stay there until the evening of the day after tomorrow.
David je Jonatanu rekel: »Glej, jutri je mlaj in jaz naj ne bi manjkal sedeti s kraljem pri mizi. Toda pusti mi oditi, da se lahko skrijem na polju do tretjega dne zvečer.
6 If your father asks why I am not there at the festival, say to him, ‘David requested me to allow him to go to his home in Bethlehem, where his family will offer the sacrifice that they offer [during this festival] every year.’
Če me tvoj oče sploh pogreši, potem reci: ›David je iskreno prosil oditi od mene, da lahko teče v svoje mesto Betlehem, kajti tam je letna klavna daritev za vso družino.‹
7 If your father says ‘That is okay’, then I know I will be safe. But if he becomes extremely angry, you will know that he is determined to harm me.
Če reče tako: › To je dobro, ‹ bo tvoj služabnik imel mir. Toda če bo zelo ogorčen, potem bodi prepričan, da je po njem določeno zlo.
8 Please be kind to me. Yahweh heard you when you made a solemn agreement with me [that you and I will always be loyal friends]. If I deserve to be punished [MTY], kill me yourself. I do not want [RHQ] you to allow your father to punish [IDM] me.”
Zato boš prijazno postopal s svojim služabnikom, kajti svojega služabnika si privedel v Gospodovo zavezo s seboj. Vendar če bo v meni krivičnost, me sam ubij, kajti zakaj bi me privedel k svojemu očetu?«
9 Jonathan replied, “I will never do that! But if I find out that my father is determined to harm/kill you, I will certainly warn you.” [RHQ]
Jonatan je rekel: »To bodi daleč od tebe, kajti če zagotovo izvem, da je bilo po mojem očetu določeno zlo, da pride nadte, mar ti ne bi potem tega povedal?«
10 David asked him, “How will I find out if your father answers you harshly?”
Potem je David rekel Jonatanu: »Kdo mi bo povedal? Ali kaj če ti tvoj oče odgovori surovo?«
11 Jonathan replied, “Come with me. We will go out into the field.” So they went together out into the field.
Jonatan je rekel Davidu: »Pridi in pojdiva ven na polje.« In oba izmed njiju sta odšla na polje.
12 There Jonathan said to David, “I promise this while Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship], is listening: At this time the day after tomorrow, I will find out what my father [is thinking about you]. If he is saying good things about you, I will certainly send a message to you to tell that to you [RHQ].
Jonatan je rekel Davidu: »Oh Gospod, Izraelov Bog, ko bom kadarkoli slišal svojega očeta, jutri ali tretji dan in glej, če bo dobro do Davida in potem ne pošljem k tebi in ti tega ne pokažem;
13 But if he is planning to hurt/kill you, I will enable you to know [IDM] that, and enable you to go away safely. I desire that Yahweh will punish me severely if I do not do that [for you]. I desire/hope that Yahweh will be with you [and help you] like he has helped my father.
Gospod stori tako in mnogo več Jonatanu. Toda če to ugaja mojemu očetu, da ti stori zlo, potem ti bom to pokazal in te poslal proč, da boš lahko šel v miru, in Gospod bodi s teboj, kakor je bil z mojim očetom.
14 But while I am still alive, please be kind to me in the same way that Yahweh is kind to me, and do not kill me [when you become king].
Dokler še živim ne boš samo meni izkazoval Gospodove prijaznosti, da ne umrem,
15 But [if I die, ] never stop being kind to my family, [even] after Yahweh has gotten rid of all your enemies all over the earth.”
temveč tudi svoje prijaznosti ne boš odsekal od moje hiše na veke. Ne, niti ko je Gospod odsekal Davidove sovražnike, vsakega iz obličja zemlje.«
16 [David agreed]. So Jonathan made a solemn agreement with David. And he said, “I hope/desire that Yahweh will get rid of all your enemies.”
Tako je Jonatan sklenil zavezo z Davidovo hišo, rekoč: »Naj Gospod to celo zahteva pri roki Davidovih sovražnikov.«
17 And Jonathan requested David to repeat his solemn promise to be his close friend, because Jonathan loved David as much as he loved himself.
Jonatan je Davidu dal, da je ponovno prisegel, ker ga je ljubil, kajti ljubil ga je, kakor je ljubil svojo lastno dušo.
18 Then Jonathan said, “Tomorrow we will celebrate the Festival of the New Moon. When you are not sitting at your place when we eat, my father will (miss you/see that you are not there).
Potem je Jonatan rekel Davidu: »Jutri je mlaj in ti boš pogrešan, ker bo tvoj sedež prazen.
19 The day after tomorrow, in the evening, go to the place where you hid before. Wait by the pile of stones.
Ko boš tri dni ostal, potem boš hitro šel dol in prišel h kraju, kjer si se skril, ko je bilo opravilo v roki in ostal boš pri kamnu Ezelu.
20 I will come out and shoot three arrows as though I were trying to shoot at a target. [The arrows will hit the ground] close to the pile of stones.
Jaz pa bom izstrelil tri puščice na tej strani, kakor če streljam v tarčo.
21 Then I will send a boy to bring the arrows back to me. If you hear me say to him, ‘They are closer to me’, then as surely as Yahweh lives, you will know that everything is fine, [and that Saul will not kill you].
Glej, poslal bom dečka, rekoč: ›Pojdi, najdi puščice.‹ Če bom dečku izrecno rekel: ›Glej, puščice so na tej tvoji strani, vzemi jih, ‹ potem pridi, kajti tam je zate mir in nobene škode, kakor Gospod živi.
22 But if I tell him, ‘The arrows are farther away’, you will know that you must leave immediately, because Yahweh wants you to run away.
Toda če mladeniču rečem tako: ›Glej, puščice so onstran tebe, ‹ pojdi svojo pot, kajti Gospod te pošilja proč.
23 I hope/desire that Yahweh will watch you and me and enable us to never forget what we have promised each other.”
Glede zadeve, o kateri sva govorila, glej, Gospod bodi med menoj in teboj na veke.«
24 So David went and hid in the field. When the Festival of the New Moon started, the king sat down to eat.
Tako se je David skril na polju. Ko je prišel mlaj, se je kralj usedel, da jé hrano.
25 He sat where he usually sat, close to the wall. Jonathan sat across from him, and Abner [the army commander] sat next to Saul. But no one was sitting in the place where David [usually sat].
Kralj je sedel na svojem sedežu, kakor ob drugih časih, torej sedežu pri zidu in Jonatan je vstal in Abnêr je sedel pri Savlovi strani, Davidovo mesto pa je bilo prazno.
26 On that day, Saul did not say anything about David, because he was thinking, “Something must have happened that caused David to become unacceptable [to worship God].”
Kljub temu Savel ta dan ni spregovoril nobene stvari, kajti mislil je: »Nekaj se mu je pripetilo, ni čist. Zagotovo ni čist.«
27 But the next day, when David was not sitting at the place where he usually sat, Saul asked Jonathan, “Why has that son of Jesse not been here to eat with us yesterday and today?”
Pripetilo se je naslednji dan, ki je bil drugi dan meseca, da je bil Davidov prostor prazen. Savel je rekel svojemu sinu Jonatanu: »Zakaj ne prihaja Jesejev sin k jedi niti včeraj niti danes.«
28 Jonathan replied, “David earnestly requested me that I permit him to go to Bethlehem.
Jonatan je odgovoril Savlu: »David me je iskreno prosil za dovoljenje, da gre v Betlehem.
29 He said, ‘Please allow me to go, because our family is going to offer a sacrifice. My [older] brother insisted that I be there. So please allow me to go to be with my [older] brothers.’ [I allowed David to go], and that is the reason that he is not here eating with you.”
Rekel je: ›Pusti me oditi, prosim te, kajti naša družina ima klavno daritev v mestu in moj brat mi je zapovedal, naj bom tam in sedaj, če sem našel naklonjenost v tvojih očeh, mi pusti oditi, prosim te in videti svoje brate.‹ Zato ne prihaja h kraljevi mizi.«
30 Saul was (furious/very angry) with Jonathan. He yelled at him, “You stupid bastard [EUP]! I know that you are being loyal to that son of Jesse. By doing that, you will bring shame to yourself and to your mother.
Potem je bila Savlova jeza vžgana zoper Jonatana in mu je rekel: »Ti, sin sprevržene uporne ženske, mar ne vem, da si si izbral Jesejevega sina v svojo lastno zmedo in k zmedi nagote svoje matere?
31 As long as Jesse’s son is living, you will never become the king, and you will never rule over a kingdom! So now, summon David, and bring him to me. He must be executed!”
Kajti dokler Jesejev sin živi na zemlji, ne boš utrjen niti tvoje kraljestvo. Zato sedaj pošlji in mi ga pripelji, kajti zagotovo bo umrl.«
32 Jonathan asked his father, “Why should David be executed? What wrong has he done?”
Jonatan je svojemu očetu Savlu odgovoril in mu rekel: »Zakaj naj bi bil umorjen? Kaj je storil?«
33 Then Saul threw his spear at Jonathan in order to kill him, [but the spear did not hit him]. So Jonathan knew that his father really wanted to kill David.
Savel je vanj vrgel kopje, da ga pobije, po čemer je Jonatan vedel, da je bilo od njegovega očeta odločeno, da Davida usmrti.
34 Jonathan was very angry, and he left the room. On that second day of the festival, he refused to eat anything. He was disgusted about what his father had done, and he was worried about David.
Tako je Jonatan v siloviti jezi vstal od mize in drugi dan meseca ni jedel nobene hrane, kajti užaloščen je bil zaradi Davida, ker mu je oče storil sramoto.
35 The following morning Jonathan went out to the field to give a message to David, like he had agreed that he would do. He took a young boy with him.
Pripetilo se je zjutraj, da je Jonatan odšel na polje ob času, dogovorjenem z Davidom in majhen deček z njim.
36 Jonathan said to the boy, “Run and find the arrows that I shoot.” The boy started running, and Jonathan shot an arrow ahead of the boy.
Svojemu dečku je rekel: »Steci, poišči sedaj puščice, ki jih izstrelim.« In medtem ko je deček stekel, je izstrelil puščico preko njega.
37 When the boy ran to the place where the arrow hit the ground, Jonathan called out, “The arrow is further away!” [RHQ]
Ko je deček prišel na mesto puščice, ki jo je Jonatan izstrelil, je Jonatan zaklical za dečkom in rekel: » Ali ni puščica onstran tebe?«
38 Then he shouted to the boy, “Act quickly; do not wait! Do not stop!” The boy picked up the arrow and brought it back to Jonathan.
Jonatan je zaklical za dečkom: »Podvizaj se, pohiti, ne stoj.« Jonatanov deček je zbral puščice in prišel k svojemu gospodarju.
39 But the boy did not understand the meaning of what Jonathan had said; only Jonathan and David knew.
Toda deček ni vedel nobene stvari. Samo Jonatan in David sta poznala zadevo.
40 Then Jonathan gave his bow and arrows to the boy and told him, “Go back to the town.”
Jonatan je izročil svoje strelno orožje svojemu dečku in mu rekel: »Pojdi, odnesi jih v mesto.«
41 When the boy left, David came out from the south side of the pile of stones behind which he had been hiding. He went to Jonathan and bowed [in front of Jonathan] three times, with his face touching the ground. Then David and Jonathan kissed each other [on the cheek/neck], and they cried together. But David cried more than Jonathan.
In brž ko je deček odšel, se je David dvignil iz kraja proti jugu in padel na svoj obraz na tla in se trikrat priklonil. Drug drugega sta poljubila in jokala drug z drugim, dokler David ni prevladal [v joku].
42 Jonathan said to David, “May things go well for you as you go. Yahweh has heard what we solemnly promised to always do for each other, and what we said that our descendants must do for each other.” Then David left, and Jonathan went back to the town.
Jonatan je rekel Davidu: »Pojdi v miru, kakor sva oba izmed naju prisegla v Gospodovem imenu, rekoč: ›GOSPOD bodi med menoj in teboj in med mojim semenom in tvojim semenom na veke.‹« In vstal je ter odpotoval, Jonatan pa je odšel v mesto.
