Første Krønikebog 11

¹ Derpå samlede hele Israel sig hos David i Hebron og sagde: "Vi er jo dit Kød og Blod!"

¹ Then all Israel gathered to David at Hebron and said, “Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.

³ Og alle Israels Ældste kom til Kongen i Hebron, og David sluttede i Hebron Pagt med dem for HERRRNs Åsyn, og de salvede David til Konge over Israel efter HERRENs Ord ved Samuel.

³ So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the Lord; and they anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of the Lord through Samuel.

⁵ og Indbyggerne i Jebus sagde til David: "Her kan du ikke trænge ind!" Men David indtog Klippeborgen Zion, det er Davidsbyen.

⁵ The inhabitants of Jebus said to David, “You shall not enter here.” Nevertheless David captured the stronghold of Zion (that is, the city of David).

⁷ Så tog David Bolig i Klippeborgen, hvorfor man kaldte den Davidsbyen;

⁷ Then David dwelt in the stronghold; therefore it was called the city of David.

⁹ Og David blev mægtigere og mægtigere; Hærskarers HERRE var med ham.

⁹ David became greater and greater, for the Lord of hosts was with him.

¹¹ Navnene på Davids Helte var følgende: Isjba'al, Hakmonis Søn, Anføreren for de tre; det var ham, som engang svang sit Spyd over 300 faldne på een Gang.

¹¹ These constitute the list of the mighty men whom David had: Jashobeam, the son of a Hachmonite, the chief of the thirty; he lifted up his spear against three hundred whom he killed at one time.

¹³ han var med David ved PasDammim, dengang Filisterne samlede sig der til Kamp. Marken var fuld af Byg, og Folkene flygtedefor Filisterne;

¹³ He was with David at Pasdammim when the Philistines were gathered together there to battle, and there was a plot of ground full of barley; and the people fled before the Philistines.

¹⁵ Engang drog tre af de tredive ned til David på Klippen, til Adullams Hule, medens Filisternes Hær var lejret i Refaimdalen.

¹⁵ Now three of the thirty chief men went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam, while the army of the Philistines was camping in the valley of Rephaim.

¹⁷ Så vågnede Lysten hos David, og han sagde: "Hvem skaffer mig en Drik Vand fra Cisternen ved Betlehems Port?"

¹⁷ David had a craving and said, “Oh that someone would give me water to drink from the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!”

¹⁹ med de Ord: "Gud vogte mig for at gøre det! Skulde jeg drikke de Mænds blod, som har vovet deres Liv? Thi med Fare for deres Liv har de hentet det!" Og han vilde ikke drikke det. Den Dåd udførte de tre Helte.

¹⁹ and he said, “Be it far from me before my God that I should do this. Shall I drink the blood of these men who went at the risk of their lives? For at the risk of their lives they brought it.” Therefore he would not drink it. These things the three mighty men did.

²¹ iblandt de tredive var han højt æret, og han var deres Anfører; men de tre nåede han ikke.

²¹ Of the three in the second rank he was the most honored and became their commander; however, he did not attain to the first three.

²³ Ligeledes fældede han Ægypteren, en kæmpestor Mand, fem Alen høj. Ægypteren havde et Spyd som en Væverbom i Hånden, men han gik ned imod ham med en Stok, vristede Spydet ud af Hånden på ham og dræbte ham med hans eget Spyd.

²³ He killed an Egyptian, a man of great stature five cubits tall. Now in the Egyptian’s hand was a spear like a weaver’s beam, but he went down to him with a club and snatched the spear from the Egyptian’s hand and killed him with his own spear.

²⁵ iblandt de tredive var han højt æret, men de tre nåede han ikke. David satte ham over sin Livvagt.

²⁵ Behold, he was honored among the thirty, but he did not attain to the three; and David appointed him over his guard.
