2 Samuel 12
1 The LORD sent Nathan to David. He came to him, and said to him, “There were two men in one city: the one rich, and the other poor.
Gospod je k Davidu poslal Natána. Ta je prišel k njemu in mu rekel: »Bila sta dva moža v enem mestu; eden bogat, drugi pa reven.
2 The rich man had very many flocks and herds,
Bogat človek je imel silno mnogo tropov in čred,
3 but the poor man had nothing, except one little ewe lamb, which he had bought and raised. It grew up together with him and with his children. It ate of his own food, drank of his own cup, and lay in his bosom, and was like a daughter to him.
toda reven človek ni imel ničesar, razen ene majhne ovčje jagnjice, ki jo je kupil in jo preživljal. Ta je zrasla skupaj z njim in z njegovimi otroki; jedla je od njegove lastne hrane, pila iz njegove lastne čaše, ležala v njegovem naročju in mu je bila kakor hči.
4 A traveler came to the rich man, and he didn’t want to take of his own flock and of his own herd to prepare for the wayfaring man who had come to him, but took the poor man’s lamb and prepared it for the man who had come to him.”
K bogatašu pa je prišel popotnik in žal mu je bilo vzeti od svojega lastnega tropa in od svoje lastne črede, da pripravi za popotnika, ki je prišel k njemu, temveč je vzel reveževo jagnje in to pripravil za človeka, ki je prišel k njemu.«
5 David’s anger burned hot against the man, and he said to Nathan, “As the LORD lives, the man who has done this deserves to die!
Davidova jeza je bila silno vžgana zoper tega moža in Natánu je rekel: » Kakor Gospod živi, mož, ki je storil to stvar, bo zagotovo umrl
6 He must restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing and because he had no pity!”
in četverno bo povrnil jagnje, ker je storil to stvar in ker ni imel usmiljenja.«
7 Nathan said to David, “You are the man! This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you out of the hand of Saul.
Natán je rekel Davidu: »Ti si ta človek. Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog: ›Mazilil sem te [za] kralja nad Izraelom in te osvobodil iz Savlove roke.
8 I gave you your master’s house and your master’s wives into your bosom, and gave you the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that would have been too little, I would have added to you many more such things.
Dal sem ti hišo tvojega gospodarja in v tvoje naročje žene tvojega gospodarja in dal sem ti Izraelovo in Judovo hišo. Če bi bilo to premalo, bi ti dodal še več takšnih in takšnih stvari.
9 Why have you despised the LORD’s word, to do that which is evil in his sight? You have struck Uriah the Hittite with the sword, have taken his wife to be your wife, and have slain him with the sword of the children of Ammon.
Zakaj si preziral Gospodovo zapoved, da si storil zlo v njegovem pogledu? Hetejca Urijája si ubil z mečem in njegovo ženo vzel, da postane tvoja žena, njega pa si umoril z mečem Amónovih otrok.
10 Now therefore the sword will never depart from your house, because you have despised me and have taken Uriah the Hittite’s wife to be your wife.’
Zdaj torej meč ne bo nikoli odšel od tvoje hiše, ker si me preziral in si vzel ženo Hetejca Urijája, da bi bila tvoja žena.‹
11 “This is what the LORD says: ‘Behold, I will raise up evil against you out of your own house; and I will take your wives before your eyes and give them to your neighbor, and he will lie with your wives in the sight of this sun.
Tako govori Gospod: ›Glej, zoper tebe bom vzdignil zlo iz tvoje lastne hiše in pred tvojimi očmi bom vzel tvoje žene in jih dal tvojemu bližnjemu in ta bo ležal s tvojimi ženami v pogledu tega sonca.
12 For you did this secretly, but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.’”
Kajti ti si to delal naskrivaj, toda jaz bom to stvar storil pred vsem Izraelom in pred soncem.‹«
13 David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against the LORD.” Nathan said to David, “The LORD also has put away your sin. You will not die.
David je rekel Natánu: »Grešil sem zoper Gospoda.« Natán je rekel Davidu: » Gospod je tudi odstranil tvoj greh; ne boš umrl.
14 However, because by this deed you have given great occasion to the LORD’s enemies to blaspheme, the child also who is born to you will surely die.”
Vendar ker si s tem dejanjem dal Gospodovim sovražnikom veliko priložnost, da izrekajo bogokletje, bo tudi otrok, ki ti je rojen, zagotovo umrl.«
15 Then Nathan departed to his house. The LORD struck the child that Uriah’s wife bore to David, and he was very sick.
In Natán je odšel od njegove hiše. Gospod pa je udaril otroka, ki ga je Urijájeva žena rodila Davidu in ta je bil zelo bolan.
16 David therefore begged God for the child; and David fasted, and went in and lay all night on the ground.
David je zato rotil Boga za otroka in David se je postil in vstopil ter vso noč ležal na zemlji.
17 The elders of his house arose beside him, to raise him up from the earth; but he would not, and he didn’t eat bread with them.
Starešine njegove hiše so vstali in odšli k njemu, da ga vzdignejo z zemlje, toda ni hotel niti ni z njimi jedel kruha.
18 On the seventh day, the child died. David’s servants were afraid to tell him that the child was dead, for they said, “Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spoke to him and he didn’t listen to our voice. How will he then harm himself if we tell him that the child is dead?”
Pripetilo se je na sedmi dan, da je otrok umrl. Davidovi služabniki pa so se mu bali povedati, da je bil otrok mrtev, kajti rekli so: »Glej, medtem ko je bil otrok še živ, smo mu govorili, pa ni hotel poslušati našega glasu. Kako bo torej žalostil samega sebe, če mu povemo, da je otrok mrtev?«
19 But when David saw that his servants were whispering together, David perceived that the child was dead; and David said to his servants, “Is the child dead?” They said, “He is dead.”
Toda ko je David videl, da so njegovi služabniki šepetali, je David zaznal, da je bil otrok mrtev. Zato je David rekel svojim služabnikom: »Je otrok mrtev?« Rekli so: »Mrtev je.«
20 Then David arose from the earth, and washed and anointed himself, and changed his clothing; and he came into the LORD’s house, and worshiped. Then he came to his own house; and when he requested, they set bread before him and he ate.
Potem se je David vzdignil z zemlje, se umil, mazilil, zamenjal svojo obleko, prišel v Gospodovo hišo in oboževal. Potem je prišel v svojo lastno hišo; in ko je zahteval, so predenj postavili kruh in je jedel.
21 Then his servants said to him, “What is this that you have done? You fasted and wept for the child while he was alive, but when the child was dead, you rose up and ate bread.”
Potem so mu njegovi služabniki rekli: »Kakšna stvar je ta, ki si jo storil? Postil si se in jokal zaradi otroka, medtem ko je bil živ, toda ko je bil otrok mrtev, si vstal in jedel kruh.«
22 He said, “While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept; for I said, ‘Who knows whether the LORD will not be gracious to me, that the child may live?’
Rekel je: »Medtem ko je bil otrok še živ, sem se postil in jokal, kajti rekel sem: ›Kdo lahko pove, ali mi bo Bog milostljiv, da bo otrok lahko živel?‹
23 But now he is dead. Why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to me.”
Toda sedaj je mrtev, zakaj bi se torej postil? Ali ga lahko ponovno privedem nazaj? Jaz bom šel k njemu, toda on se ne bo vrnil k meni.«
24 David comforted Bathsheba his wife, and went in to her, and lay with her. She bore a son, and he called his name Solomon. The LORD loved him;
David je potolažil svojo ženo Batšébo in šel noter k njej in ležal z njo in rodila je sina in njegovo ime je imenoval Salomon. In Gospod ga je ljubil.
25 and he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet, and he named him Jedidiah, for the LORD’s sake.
In poslal je po roki preroka Natána in ta je njegovo ime imenoval Jedidjá, zaradi Gospoda.
26 Now Joab fought against Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and took the royal city.
Joáb se je boril zoper Rabo Amónovih sinov in zavzel kraljevo mesto.
27 Joab sent messengers to David, and said, “I have fought against Rabbah. Yes, I have taken the city of waters.
Joáb je poslal poslance k Davidu in rekel: »Boril sem se zoper Rabo in zavzel mesto vodá.
28 Now therefore gather the rest of the people together, and encamp against the city and take it; lest I take the city, and it be called by my name.”
Zdaj torej zberi skupaj preostanek ljudstva in se utabôri zoper mesto in ga zavzemi, da ne bi jaz zavzel mesta in bi se ta imenoval po mojem imenu.«
29 David gathered all the people together and went to Rabbah, and fought against it and took it.
In David je vse ljudstvo zbral skupaj in odšel v Rabo in se bojeval zoper njo ter jo zavzel.
30 He took the crown of their king from off his head; and its weight was a talent of gold, and in it were precious stones; and it was set on David’s head. He brought a great quantity of plunder out of the city.
Vzel je krono njihovega kralja iz njegove glave, katere teža je bila talent zlata z dragocenimi kamni in ta je bila postavljena na Davidovo glavo. In iz mesta je prinesel plena v velikem obilju.
31 He brought out the people who were in it, and put them to work under saws, under iron picks, under axes of iron, and made them go to the brick kiln; and he did so to all the cities of the children of Ammon. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
Privedel je ljudstvo, ki je bilo tam in jih postavil pod žage, pod brane iz železa, pod sekire iz železa in jih primoral, da gredo skozi opekarsko peč. Tako je storil vsem mestom Amónovih otrok. Tako se je David in vse ljudstvo vrnilo v Jeruzalem.
