2 Og alle Slags Mennesker, som var i Nød, flokkede sig om ham, forgældede Mennesker og Folk, som var bitre i Hu, og han blev deres Høvding. Henved 4OO Mand sluttede sig til ham.
2 Everyone who was in distress, and everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was discontented gathered to him; and he became captain over them. Now there were about four hundred men with him.
3 Derfra drog David til Mizpe i Moab og sagde til Moabiternes Konge: "Lad min Fader og min Moder bo hos eder, indtil jeg får at vide, hvad Gud har for med mig!"
3 And David went from there to Mizpah of Moab; and he said to the king of Moab, “Please let my father and my mother come and stay with you until I know what God will do for me.”
6 Nu kom dette Saul for Øre, thi David og de Mænd, han havde hos sig, havde vakt Opmærksomhed. Saul sad engang i Gibea under Tamarisken på Højen med sit Spyd i Hånden, omgivet af alle sine Folk.
6 Then Saul heard that David and the men who were with him had been discovered. Now Saul was sitting in Gibeah, under the tamarisk tree on the height with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing around him.
7 Da sagde Saul til sine folk, som stod hos ham: "Hør dog, I Benjaminiter! Vil Isajs Søn give eder alle sammen Marker og Vingårde eller gøre eder alle til Tusind- og Hundredførere,
7 Saul said to his servants who stood around him, “Hear now, O Benjamites! Will the son of Jesse also give to all of you fields and vineyards? Will he make you all commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds?
8 siden I alle har sammensvoret eder imod mig, og ingen lod mig det vide, da min Søn sluttede Pagt med Isajs Søn? Ingen af eder havde Medfølelse med mig og lod mig vide, at min Søn havde fået min Træl til at optræde som min Fjende, som han nu gør."
8 For all of you have conspired against me so that there is no one who discloses to me when my son makes a covenant with the son of Jesse, and there is none of you who is sorry for me or discloses to me that my son has stirred up my servant against me to lie in ambush, as it is this day.”
11 Da sendte Kongen Bud og lod Præsten Ahimelek, Ahitubs Søn, hente tillige med hele hans Fædrenehus, Præsterne i Nob; og da de alle var kommet til Kongen,
11 Then the king sent someone to summon Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and all his father’s household, the priests who were in Nob; and all of them came to the king.
13 Da sagde Saul til ham: "Hvorfor sammensvor du og Isajs Søn eder imod mig? Du gav ham jo Brød og Sværd og rådspurgte Gud for ham, så at han kunde optræde som min Fjende, som han nu gør!"
13 Saul then said to him, “Why have you and the son of Jesse conspired against me, in that you have given him bread and a sword and have inquired of God for him, so that he would rise up against me by lying in ambush as it is this day?”
14 Ahimelek svarede Kongen:"Hvem blandt alle dine Folk er så betroet som David? Han er jo Kongens Svigersøn, Øverste for din Livvagt og højt æret i dit Hus?
14 Then Ahimelech answered the king and said, “And who among all your servants is as faithful as David, even the king’s son-in-law, who is captain over your guard, and is honored in your house?
15 Er det første Gang, jeg har rådspurgt Gud for ham? Det være langt fra! Kongen må ikke lægge sin Træl eller hele mit Fædrenehus noget til Last, thi din Træl kendte ikke det mindste til noget af dette!"
15 Did I just begin to inquire of God for him today? Far be it from me! Do not let the king impute anything to his servant or to any of the household of my father, for your servant knows nothing at all of this whole affair.”
17 Og Kongen sagde til Vagten, som stod hos ham: "Træd frem og dræb HERRENs Præster; thi de står også i Ledtog med David, og skønt de vidste, at han var på Flugt, gav de mig ikke Underretning derom!" Men Kongens Folk vilde ikke lægge Hånd på HERRENs Præster.
17 And the king said to the guards who were attending him, “Turn around and put the priests of the Lord to death, because their hand also is with David and because they knew that he was fleeing and did not reveal it to me.” But the servants of the king were not willing to put forth their hands to attack the priests of the Lord.
18 Da sagde Kongen til Doeg: "Træd du så frem og stød Præsterne ned!" Da trådte Edomiten Doeg frem og stødte Præsterne ned; han dræbte den Dag femogfirsindstyve Mænd, som bar Efod.
18 Then the king said to Doeg, “You turn around and attack the priests.” And Doeg the Edomite turned around and attacked the priests, and he killed that day eighty-five men who wore the linen ephod.
22 Da sagde David til Ebjatar: "Jeg vidste dengang, at når Edomiten Doeg var der, vilde han give Saul Underretning derom! Jeg bærer Skylden for hele dit Fædrenehus's Død.
22 Then David said to Abiathar, “I knew on that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul. I have brought about the death of every person in your father’s household.
