< 2 Samuel 12 >

1 Yahweh [told the prophet Nathan what David had done, and he] sent Nathan to tell [this story to] David: “[I heard about] two men [who] were living in a certain city. One was rich and the other was poor.
Тогава Господ прати Натана при Давида. И той като дойде при него, каза му: В един град имаше двама човека, единият богат, а другият сиромах.
2 The rich man owned a lot of cattle and sheep.
Богатият имаше овци и говеда твърде много;
3 But the poor man had only one little female lamb, which he had bought. He raised the lamb, and it grew up with his children. He would give the lamb some of his own food and let it drink from his cup. He let the lamb sleep in his arms. The lamb was like a daughter to him.
а сиромахът нямаше друго освен едно малко женско агне, което бе купил и което хранеше; а то бе пораснало заедно с него и чадата му, от залъка му ядеше, от чашата му пиеше, и на пазухата му лежеше; и то ме беше като дъщеря.
4 [One day] a visitor came to [visit] the rich man. The rich man did not want to take one of his own animals [and kill it] to prepare a meal for the visitor. So instead, he stole the poor man’s lamb [and killed it] and prepared a meal for his visitor.”
И един пътник дойде у богатия; и нему се посвидя да вземе своите овци и от своите говеда да сготви за пътника, който бе дошъл у него, но взе агнето на сиромаха та го сготви за човека, който бе дошъл у него.
5 [When] David [heard that, he] was very angry about [what] the rich man [had done]. He said to Nathan, “I solemnly declare that the man who did that should be executed!
Тогава гневът на Давида пламна силно против тоя човек; и той каза на Натана: В името на живия Господ, човекът, който е сторил това, заслужава смърт;
6 But before he is executed, he should pay back to the poor man four lambs for doing this, and for not having pity [on the poor man].”
и ще плати за агнето четверократно, понеже е сторил това дело, и понеже не се е смирил.
7 Nathan said to David, “You are the man [I have been talking about]! And this is what Yahweh, the God we Israelis [worship], says to you: ‘I appointed you to be king of Israel, after having rescued you from Saul.
Тогава Натан каза на Давида: Ти си тоя човек. Така казва Господ Израилевият Бог: Аз те помазах за цар над Израиля, и те избавих от Сауловата ръка;
8 I gave you his palace and his wives. I caused you to become the king to rule Israel and Judah. If [you had told me that] you were not content with what I gave you, I would have given you twice as much!
и дадох ти дом на господаря ти, и жените на господаря ти в пазухата ти, и дадох ти Израилевия и Юдовия дом; и ако това беше малко, приложил бих ти това и това.
9 So why have you despised my commandment [about not committing adultery]? You have done what I consider to be very evil! You have arranged for Uriah to be killed in a battle by the Ammon people-group’s soldiers, and you have taken his wife to be your wife!
Защото презря ти словото на Господа, та стори зло пред очите Му? Ти порази с меч хетееца Урия, и си взе за жена неговата жена, а него ти уби с меча на амонците.
10 You have despised me, and have taken Uriah’s wife to be your wife. So for many generations some of your descendants will die violently. [MTY, PRS]
Сега, прочее, няма никога да се оттегли меч от дома ти, понеже ти Ме презря, та взе жената на хетееца Урия, за да ти бъде жена.
11 I solemnly declare to you that I will cause someone from your own family to bring trouble to you. I will take your wives and give them to him, and he will have sexual relations with them in the daytime, where everyone can see it, and you will know all about it.
Така казва Господ: Ето, отсред твоя дом ще подигна против тебе злини, и ще взема жените ти пред очите ти, та ще ги дам на ближния ти; и той ще лежи с жените ти пред това слънце.
12 What you did, you did secretly, but what I will cause to happen, everyone in Israel will be able to see it [or know about it]. [IDM]’”
Защото ти си извършил това тайно; но Аз ще извърша туй нещо пред целия Израил и пред слънцето.
13 David replied, “I have sinned against Yahweh.” Nathan said to David, “Yahweh has forgiven you for your sin: You will not die [because of this sin].
Тогава Давид каза на Натана: Съгреших Господу, А Натан каза на Давида: И Господ отстрани греха ти; няма да умреш.
14 But, you have shown contempt for Yahweh by doing this. So, your baby will die.”
Но понеже чрез това дело ти си дал голяма причина на Господните врагове да хулят, затова детето което ти се е родило, непременно ще умре.
15 Then Nathan went home. Then Yahweh caused the baby t o become very sick, the one that Uriah’s wife had given birth to.
И Натан си отиде у дома си. А Господ порази детето, което Уриевата жена роди на Давида, и то се разболя.
16 So David prayed to God that the child [would not die]. He (fasted/abstained from food), and he went into [the room where he slept] and lay all night on the floor.
Давид, прочее, се моли Богу за детето; и Давид пости, па влезе та пренощува легнал на земята.
17 [The next morning] his advisors stood around him and urged him to get up. But he would not get up, and he would not eat any food with them.
И старейшините на дома му станаха и дойдоха при него, за да го дигнат от земята; но той отказа, нито вкуси хляб с тях.
18 One week later the baby died. David’s servants were afraid to tell that to David. They said [to each other], “Hey, while the baby was still alive, we talked to him, but he would not answer us. Now, if we tell him that the baby is dead [RHQ], he may do something to harm himself!”
И на седмия ден детето умря. И слугите на Давида се бояха да му явят, че детето бе умряло, защото думаха: Ето, докато детето бе още живо говорехме му, и той не слушаше думите ни; колко, прочее, ще се измъчва, ако му кажем, че детето е умряло!
19 But when David saw that his servants were whispering something to each other, he realized that the baby must be dead. So he asked them, “Is the baby dead?” They replied, “Yes, he is dead.”
Но Давид, като видя че слугите му шепнеха помежду си, разбра, че бе умряло детето; затова Давид каза на слугите си: Умря ли детето? А те рекоха: Умря.
20 Then David got up from the floor. He bathed himself, put lotions on his body, and put on other clothes, Then he went into Yahweh’s Sacred Tent and worshiped Yahweh. Then he went home. He asked his servants for some food. They gave him some, and he ate it.
Тогава Давид стана от земята, уми се и се помаза, и като промени дрехите си, влезе в Господния дом та се помоли. После дойде у дома си; и, понеже поиска, сложиха пред него хляб, и той яде.
21 Then his servants said to him, “We do not understand [RHQ] why you have done this! While the baby was still alive, you cried for him and refused to eat anything. But now that the baby has died, [you are not crying any more!] You got up and ate some food!”
А слугите му му казаха: Що е това, което ти стори? Ти пости и плака за детето, докато беше живо; а като умря детето, ти стана и яде хляб!
22 David replied, “While the baby was still alive, I fasted and cried. I thought, ‘Who knows? Yahweh may be merciful to me and not allow the baby to die’.
А той рече: Докато детето беше още живо, постих и плаках, защото си рекох: Кой знае? може Бог да ми покаже милост, и детето да остане живо.
23 But now the baby is dead. So (there is no reason for me to (fast/abstain from eating food) any more./why should I (fast/abstain from eating food) any more?) [RHQ] (Can I bring him back to me?/I certainly cannot bring him back to me!) [RHQ] [Some day] I will go to where he is, but he will not return to me.”
Но сега то умря. Защо да постя? Мога ли да го върна надире? Аз ще ида при него, а то няма да се върне при мене.
24 Then David comforted his wife, Bathsheba. Then he (slept/had sexual relations) with her, and she [became pregnant again and] gave birth to another son. David named that son Solomon. Yahweh loved that little boy.
След това, Давид утеши жена си Витсавее, и влезе при нея та лежа с нея; и тя роди син, и нарече го Соломон. И Господ го възлюби,
25 He told the prophet Nathan to tell David to name the baby boy Jedediah [which means ‘loved by Yahweh’, ] because Yahweh loved him.
и прати чрез пророка Натана та го нараче Едидия, заради Господа.
26 (Meanwhile/While all that was happening), Joab’s [soldiers] attacked Rabbah, [the capital city] of the Ammon people-group; and they captured the king’s fortress.
А Иоав воюва против Рава на амонците и превзе царския град.
27 Then Joab sent messengers to David, to tell him this: “My troops are attacking Rabbah, and we have captured the city’s water supply.
И Иоав прати вестители до Давида, да кажат: Воювах против Рава, и даже превзех града на водите.
28 Now gather your troops and come and surround the city and capture it. If you do not do that, my troops will capture the city and it will then be named ‘the City of Joab’.”
Сега, прочее, събери останалите люде та разположи стана си против града и завладей го, да не би аз да завладея града, и той да се нарече с моето име.
29 So David gathered all his troops. They went [with David] to Rabbah and attacked it and captured it.
Затова Давид събра всичките люде та отиде в Рава, би се против нея, и я завладя.
30 Then David took the crown from the head of the king of Rabbah (OR, from the head of [Milcom] the god of Rabbah) and put it on his own head. It [was very heavy; it] weighed (75 pounds/34 kg.), and it had many very valuable stones fastened to it. His soldiers also took many other valuable things from the city.
И взе от главата на царя им короната му, която тежеше един златен талант, и бе украсена със скъпоценни камъни; и положиха я на главата на Давида. И той изнесе из града твърде много користи.
31 Then they brought the people of Rabbah out of the city and forced them to [work for them] using saws and iron picks and axes. David’s troops also forced them to make bricks. David’s soldiers did this in all the towns of the Ammon people-group. Then David and all of his army returned to Jerusalem.
Изведе и людете, които бяха в него, та го тури под триони и под железни дикани и под железни брадви, и преведе ги през пещта за тухли; и така постъпи с всички градове на амонците. Тогава Давид се върна с всичките люде в Ерусалим.
