1 Samuels 13
1 I ett år hadde Saul dengang vært konge; og da han hadde vært konge over Israel i to år,
[was] a son of (Thirty *X) year[s] Saul when became king he (and forty *X) and two years he reigned over Israel.
2 valgte han sig tre tusen mann av Israel; av dem var to tusen med Saul i Mikmas og i Betel-fjellene, og tusen var med Jonatan i Gibea i Benjamin; resten av folket lot han fare hjem hver til sitt.
And he chose for himself Saul three thousand from Israel and they were with Saul two thousand at Micmash and in [the] hill country of Beth-el and one thousand they were with Jonathan at Gibeah of Benjamin and [the] rest of the people he sent away each man to tents his.
3 Og Jonatan slo det krigsmannskap som filistrene hadde i Geba; det fikk filistrene høre; men Saul lot basunen lyde rundt omkring i hele landet og sa: Hebreerne skal høre det.
And he attacked Jonathan [the] garrison of [the] Philistines which [was] at Geba and they heard [the] Philistines and Saul he gave a blast on the trumpet in all the land saying let them hear the Hebrews.
4 Og hele Israel fikk høre tidenden om at Saul hadde slått filistrenes krigsmannskap, og at filistrene hadde lagt Israel for hat. Og folket blev kalt til våben for å følge Saul til Gilgal.
And all Israel they heard saying he has attacked Saul [the] garrison of [the] Philistines and also it has made itself odious Israel with the Philistines and they were summoned the people after Saul Gilgal.
5 Filistrene samlet sig for å stride mot Israel, tretti tusen vogner og seks tusen hestfolk, og fotfolk så mange som sanden ved havets bredd; og de drog op og leiret sig ved Mikmas østenfor Bet-Aven.
And [the] Philistines they gathered - to fight with Israel thirty thousand chariot[s] and six thousand horsemen and a people like the sand which [is] on [the] shore of the sea for multitude and they came up and they encamped at Micmash [the] east of Beth Aven.
6 Da nu Israels menn så hvilken fare de var i fordi folket blev hårdt angrepet, da skjulte folket sig i huler og tornebusker og fjellkløfter og tårner og brønner.
And everyone of Israel they saw that it was distress to it for it was hard pressed the people and they hid themselves the people in caves and in thickets and in cliffs and in underground chambers and in cisterns.
7 Nogen av hebreerne gikk over Jordan til Gads og Gileads land; men Saul var ennu i Gilgal, og alt folket fulgte ham skjelvende.
And Hebrews they passed over the Jordan [the] land of Gad and Gilead and Saul still he [was] at Gilgal and all the people they trembled after him.
8 Han ventet syv dager - til den tid Samuel hadde fastsatt; men Samuel kom ikke til Gilgal, og folket spredte sig og forlot ham.
(And he waited *Qk) seven days to the appointed time which Samuel and not he had come Samuel Gilgal and it scattered the people from with him.
9 Da sa Saul: Kom hit til mig med brennofferet og takkofferne! Og så ofret han brennofferet.
And he said Saul bring near to me the burnt offering and the peace offerings and he offered up the burnt offering.
10 Men da han vel hadde ofret brennofferet, da kom Samuel, og Saul gikk ut imot ham for å hilse på ham.
And it was when finished he to offer up the burnt offering and there! Samuel [was] coming and he went out Saul to meet him to bless him.
11 Da sa Samuel: Hvad har du gjort? Saul svarte: Da jeg så at folket spredte sig og forlot mig, og du ikke kom til den fastsatte tid, og filistrene samlet sig ved Mikmas.
And he said Samuel what? have you done and he said Saul if I saw that it was scattered the people from with me and you not you had come to [the] appointed time of the days and [the] Philistines [were] gathering Micmash.
12 så tenkte jeg: Nu drar filistrene ned mot mig til Gilgal, og jeg har ennu ikke bønnfalt Herren, og jeg tok mot til mig og ofret brennofferet.
And I said now they will come down [the] Philistines against me Gilgal and [the] face of Yahweh not I have entreated and I forced myself and I offered up the burnt offering.
13 Da sa Samuel til Saul: Du har båret dig dårlig at, du har ikke holdt det bud som Herren din Gud gav dig; ellers hadde Herren nu stadfestet ditt kongedømme over Israel for all tid.
And he said Samuel to Saul you have acted foolishly not you have kept [the] commandment of Yahweh God your which he commanded you for now he established Yahweh kingdom your to Israel until perpetuity.
14 Men nu skal ditt kongedømme ikke stå ved makt; Herren har søkt sig ut en mann efter sitt hjerte, og ham har Herren utsett til fyrste over sitt folk; for du har ikke holdt hvad Herren bød dig.
And now kingdom your not it will endure he has sought Yahweh for himself a man according to own heart his and he has appointed him Yahweh to ruler over people his for not you have kept [that] which he commanded you Yahweh.
15 Så gjorde Samuel sig rede og drog fra Gilgal op til Gibea i Benjamin, og Saul mønstret de folk han hadde hos sig - omkring seks hundre mann.
And he arose Samuel and he went up from Gilgal (and he went on way his and the rest of the people it went up after Saul to meet [the] people [of] the battle and they went from Gilgal *X) Gibeah of Benjamin and he mustered Saul the people who were found with him about six hundred man.
16 Og Saul og hans sønn Jonatan og de folk som de hadde hos sig, lå i Geba i Benjamin, og filistrene hadde leiret sig ved Mikmas.
And Saul and Jonathan son his and the people which was found with them [were] remaining in Geba of Benjamin and [the] Philistines they encamped in Micmash.
17 Da drog det en flokk ut av filistrenes leir for å herje; den var delt i tre hoper; den ene hop tok veien til Ofra, til Sual-bygden,
And it came out the destroyer from [the] camp of [the] Philistines three companies the company one it turned to [the] direction of Ophrah to [the] land of Shual.
18 og den annen hop tok veien til Bet-Horon, og den tredje hop tok veien til den bygd som rager op over Sebo'im-dalen bortimot ørkenen.
And the company one it turned [the] direction of Beth Horon and the company one it turned [the] direction the border which looks down over [the] valley of Zeboim the wilderness towards.
19 Dengang fantes det ikke en smed i hele Israels land; for filistrene tenkte som så: Hebreerne kunde ellers gjøre sig sverd eller spyd.
And a craftsman not he was found in all [the] land of Israel for (they said *QK) [the] Philistines lest they should make the Hebrews a sword or a spear.
20 Og hele Israel måtte gå ned til filistrene for å få smidd sine plogjern og sine hakker, sine økser og sine plogskjær,
And they went down all Israel the Philistines to sharpen each man plowshare his and mattock his and axe his and plowshare his.
21 og når eggen var sløvet på plogskjærene og hakkene og grepene og øksene, eller for å få en pigg påsatt.
And it was the charge two thirds of a shekel for the plowshares and for the mattocks and for three fork and for the axes and to make straight the goad[s].
22 Således gikk det til at på den dag da striden stod, fantes det ikke sverd eller spyd hos nogen av alle de folk som var med Saul og Jonatan; bare Saul og hans sønn Jonatan hadde disse våben.
And it was on a day of battle and not it was found a sword and a spear in [the] hand of any of the people which [was] with Saul and with Jonathan and it was found to Saul and to Jonathan son his.
23 Filistrenes forpost rykket frem til Mikmas-skaret.
And it came out [the] garrison of [the] Philistines to [the] pass of Micmash.
