1And it came to pass after the death of Saul, when David had returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, that David abode two days in Ziklag.
1A stalo sa po smrti Saulovej, keď sa navrátil Dávid od porážky Amalecha, že zostal Dávid v Ciklagu dva dni.
2And it came to pass on the third day, that behold, a man came out of the camp from Saul with his garments rent, and earth upon his head; and as soon as he came to David, he fell to the earth and did obeisance.
2A stalo sa tretieho dňa, že hľa, prišiel nejaký človek z vojska od Saula a mal roztrhnuté rúcha a zem nasypanú na svojej hlave. A bolo, keď prišiel k Dávidovi, že padol na zem a klaňal sa.
3And David said to him, Whence comest thou? And he said to him, Out of the camp of Israel am I escaped.
3A Dávid mu riekol: Odkiaľ ideš? A on mu povedal: Utiekol som z vojska Izraelovho.
4And David said to him, What has taken place? I pray thee, tell me. And he said that the people had fled from the battle, and many of the people also had fallen and died, and that Saul and Jonathan his son were dead also.
4A Dávid mu zase riekol: A čo sa stalo, povedz mi, prosím. A povedal: To, že utiekol ľud z boja, aj padlo mnoho z ľudu, a pomreli i Saul i Jonatán, jeho syn, zomreli.
5And David said to the young man that told him, How knowest thou that Saul and Jonathan his son are dead?
5A Dávid riekol mládencovi, ktorý mu to oznamoval: Ako to vieš, že zomrel Saul i Jonatán, jeho syn?
6And the young man that told him said, I happened by chance to be upon mount Gilboa, and behold, Saul leaned on his spear; and behold, the chariots and horsemen followed hard after him.
6Na to povedal mládenec, ktorý mu to oznamoval: Náhodou som prišiel na vrch Gilboa, a hľa, Saul sa tam opieral na svoju kopiju, a taktiež som videl, že ho stíhajú vozy a jazdci tesne sa ženúc za ním.
7And he looked behind him, and saw me, and called to me. And I said, Here am I.
7A keď sa obzrel za seba a videl ma, zavolal na mňa, a ja som povedal: Tu som.
8And he said to me, Who art thou? And I said to him, I am an Amalekite.
8A riekol mi: Kto si ty? A ja som mu povedal: Som Amalechita.
9He said to me again, Stand, I pray thee, over me, and slay me; for anguish has seized me; for my life is yet whole in me.
9Vtedy mi riekol: Nože zastaň nado mňa a zabi ma, lebo ma pochytil kŕč, a preto, že je ešte celá moja duša vo mne.
10So I stood over him, and put him to death, for I knew that he would not live after his fall; and I took the crown that was upon his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them hither to my lord.
10A tak som sa zastál nad ním a zabil som ho, lebo som vedel, že nebude žiť, keď raz padne. Potom som vzal korunu, ktorá bola na jeho hlave, a náramenník, ktorý bol na jeho ramene, a doniesol som ich k svojmu pánovi sem.
11Then David took hold of his garments and rent them; and all the men that were with him [did] likewise.
11Vtedy pochytil Dávid svoje rúcha a roztrhol ich, a tak urobili aj všetci mužovia, ktorí boli s ním.
12And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until even for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of Jehovah, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword.
12A smútili a plakali a postili sa až do večera pre Saula a pre Jonatána, jeho syna, jako i pre ľud Hospodinov a pre dom Izraelov, pretože padli mečom.
13And David said to the young man that told him, Whence art thou? And he said, I am the son of an Amalekite stranger.
13A Dávid riekol mládencovi, ktorý mu to oznamoval: Odkiaľ si ty? A odpovedal: Som syn muža amalechitského pohostína.
14And David said to him, How wast thou not afraid to stretch forth thy hand to destroy Jehovah's anointed?
14Na to mu riekol Dávid: Ako je to, že si sa nebál vystrieť svoju ruku, aby si zahubil pomazaného Hospodinovho?
15Then David called one of the young men and said, Draw near, [and] fall on him. And he smote him that he died.
15A Dávid zavolajúc jedného z mládencov povedal: Pristúp a obor sa na neho! A uderil ho, a zomrel.
16And David said to him, Thy blood be upon thy head; for thy mouth has testified against thee, saying, I have slain Jehovah's anointed.
16A Dávid mu riekol: Tvoja krv nech je na tvoju hlavu, lebo tvoje vlastné ústa svedčily proti tebe, keď si povedal: Ja som zabil pomazaného Hospodinovho.
17And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son;
17Vtedy trúchlil Dávid a spieval túto trúchlivú pieseň nad Saulom a nad Jonatánom, jeho synom,
18and he bade them teach the children of Judah [the song of] the bow. Behold, it is written in the book of Jasher: --
18a kázal ju naučiť synov Júdových, pieseň, zvanú: Lučište. Hľa, je napísaná v knihe Spravedlivého, Úprimného.
19The beauty of Israel is slain upon thy high places: how are the mighty fallen!
19Oj, kráso Izraelova! Na tvojich výšinách - zabitý! Jako padli hrdinovia!
20Tell [it] not in Gath, carry not the tidings in the streets of Ashkelon; Lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, Lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.
20Neoznámte toho v Gáte, nezvestujte na uliciach Aškalóna, aby sa neradovaly dcéry Filištínov, aby neplesaly dcéry neobrezancov!
21Ye mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew, no rain upon you, nor fields of heave-offerings! For there the shield of the mighty was vilely cast away, The shield of Saul, [as] not anointed with oil.
21Oj, vrchy v Gilboe! Nech nepadá na vás rosa, ani nech neprší na vás dážď, ani nech nie je tam poľa, ktoré by poskytlo obeť pozdvihnutia! Lebo tam bol potupne povrhnutý štít mnohých hrdinov, štít Saulov, bez toho, že by bol býval pomazaný olejom.
22From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, The bow of Jonathan turned not back, And the sword of Saul returned not empty.
22Od krvi pobitých, od tuku udatných neuhlo kedysi zpät lučište Jonatánovo, a meč Saulov nenavrátil sa prázdny.
23Saul and Jonathan, beloved and pleasant in their lives, Even in their death were not divided; They were swifter than eagles, they were stronger than lions.
23Saul a Jonatán, milovaní a utešení vo svojom živote, neboli rozlúčení ani pri svojej smrti. Rýchlejší boli ako orli, silnejší boli ako ľvi!
24Ye daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you in scarlet with splendour, Who put ornaments of gold upon your apparel.
24Dcéry Izraelove, plačte nad Saulom, ktorý vás odieval purpurom, dvakrát farbeným, s ozdobami, ktorý dával zlaté ozdoby na vaše rúcha!
25How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle! Jonathan is slain upon thy high places.
25Oj, ako padli hrdinovia prostred boja! Jonatán, na tvojich výšinách zabitý!
26I am distressed for thee, my brother Jonathan: very pleasant wast thou unto me; Thy love to me was wonderful, passing women's love.
26Úzko mi je nad tebou, môj brat Jonatán! Krásny si mi bol a príjemný veľmi! Podivuhodnejší si mi bol vo svojej láske nad lásku žien.
27How are the mighty fallen, and the instruments of war perished!
27Oj, ako padli hrdinovia, a zahynuly nástroje boja!
