1A stalo sa jedného dňa, že riekol Jonatán, syn Saulov, mládencovi, ktorý nosil jeho zbraň: Poď, prejdime k posádke Filištínov, ktorá je tamto na druhej stane! Ale svojmu otcovi nepovedal o tom.
1Now it fell upon a day, that Jonathan the son of Saul said unto the young man that bare his armor, Come, and let us go over to the Philistines' garrison, that is on yonder side. But he told not his father.
2A Saul dlel na konci Gibee pod granátovou jabloňou, ktorá bola v Migróne. A ľudu, ktorý bol s ním, bolo okolo šesťsto mužov.
2And Saul abode in the uttermost part of Gibeah under the pomegranate-tree which is in Migron: and the people that were with him were about six hundred men;
3A Achiáš, syn Achitúba, brata Ichabóda, syna Pinchasa, syna Éliho, kňaza Hospodinovho v Síle, nosil efód. A ľud nevedel, že odišiel Jonatán.
3and Ahijah, the son of Ahitub, Ichabod's brother, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, the priest of Jehovah in Shiloh, wearing an ephod. And the people knew not that Jonathan was gone.
4A medzi priechodmi, ktorými hľadal Jonatán možnosť prejsť na posádku Filištínov, bola príkra skala jako zub z jednej strany priechodu a príkra skala jako zub z druhej strany priechodu; meno jednej bolo Bócec, a meno druhej Sene.
4And between the passes, by which Jonathan sought to go over unto the Philistines' garrison, there was a rocky crag on the one side, and a rocky crag on the other side: and the name of the one was Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.
5Jeden zub čnel od severa naproti Michmasu a druhý od juhu naproti Gabe.
5The one crag rose up on the north in front of Michmash, and the other on the south in front of Geba.
6A Jonatán riekol mládencovi, ktorý nosil jeho zbraň: Poď, prejdime k posádke týchto neobrezancov; možno, že Hospodin vykoná za nás, lebo však Hospodinovi nie je ťažko zachrániť už či mnohom a či málom.
6And Jonathan said to the young man that bare his armor, Come, and let us go over unto the garrison of these uncircumcised: it may be that Jehovah will work for us; for there is no restraint to Jehovah to save by many or by few.
7A jeho zbrojnoš mu povedal: Učiň všetko, čokoľvek je v tvojom srdci. Obráť sa, kam chceš; hľa, budem s tebou podľa žiadosti tvojho srdca.
7And his armorbearer said unto him, Do all that is in thy heart: turn thee, behold, I am with thee according to thy heart.
8A Jonatán riekol: Hľa, my prejdeme k mužom a ukážeme sa im.
8Then said Jonathan, Behold, we will pass over unto the men, and we will disclose ourselves unto them.
9Ak nám povedia takto: Čakajte, až prijdeme k vám, budeme stáť na svojom mieste a nepojdeme hore za nimi.
9If they say thus unto us, Tarry until we come to you; then we will stand still in our place, and will not go up unto them.
10Ale ak povedia takto: Poďte hore na nás, vtedy pojdeme hore, lebo ich Hospodin vydal do našej ruky, a toto nám bude znamením.
10But if they say thus, Come up unto us; then we will go up; for Jehovah hath delivered them into our hand: and this shall be the sign unto us.
11A tedy sa ukázali obidvaja posádke Filištínov. A Filištíni povedali: Hľa, tamto Hebreji vychádzajú z dier, do ktorých sa boli ukryli!
11And both of them disclosed themselves unto the garrison of the Philistines: and the Philistines said, Behold, the Hebrews come forth out of the holes where they had hid themselves.
12A mužovia posádky odpovedali Jonatánovi a jeho zbrojnošovi a riekli: Poďte hore k nám, a povieme vám niečo! Vtedy riekol Jonatán svojmu zbrojnošovi: Poď za mnou hore, lebo ich Hospodin vydal do ruky Izraelovej.
12And the men of the garrison answered Jonathan and his armorbearer, and said, Come up to us, and we will show you a thing. And Jonathan said unto his armorbearer, Come up after me; for Jehovah hath delivered them into the hand of Israel.
13A tak vyšiel Jonatán hore na svojich rukách a na svojich nohách a jeho zbrojnoš za ním. A padali pred Jonatánom, a jeho zbrojnoš zabíjal za ním.
13And Jonathan climbed up upon his hands and upon his feet, and his armorbearer after him: and they fell before Jonathan; and his armorbearer slew them after him.
14To bola prvá porážka, v ktorej zabil Jonatán a jeho zbrojnoš okolo dvadsiatich mužov asi jako na pol kuse poľa, ktorý zorie pár volov za deň.
14And that first slaughter, which Jonathan and his armorbearer made, was about twenty men, within as it were half a furrow's length in an acre of land.
15Na to povstal veliký strach, takže sa všetko triaslo v tábore, na poli i vo všetkom ľude. Posádka i ten zhubca sa tiež triasli strachom, takže sa chvela zem, lebo to bol strach od Boha.
15And there was a trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people; the garrison, and the spoilers, they also trembled; and the earth quaked: so there was an exceeding great trembling.
16A Saulovi pozorovatelia videli v Gibei Benjaminovej, že hľa, množstvo sa rozplýva a že chodí jako v nejakom zmätku sem a ta.
16And the watchmen of Saul in Gibeah of Benjamin looked; and, behold, the multitude melted away, and they went [hither] and thither.
17Vtedy povedal Saul ľudu, ktorý bol s ním: Nože spočítajte mužstvo a vidzte, kto odišiel od nás! A keď spočítali, videli, že hľa, nebolo Jonatána ani jeho zbrojnoša.
17Then said Saul unto the people that were with him, Number now, and see who is gone from us. And when they had numbered, behold, Jonathan and his armorbearer were not there.
18A Saul povedal Achiášovi: Dones sem truhlu Božiu. Lebo truhla Božia bola toho dňa so synmi Izraelovými.
18And Saul said unto Ahijah, Bring hither the ark of God. For the ark of God was [there] at that time with the children of Israel.
19A stalo sa, kým hovoril Saul kňazovi, že hrmot, ktorý bol v tábore Filištínov, sa šíril viac a viac a rozmáhal sa, a preto povedal Saul kňazovi: Nechaj tak.
19And it came to pass, while Saul talked unto the priest, that the tumult that was in the camp of the Philistines went on and increased: and Saul said unto the priest, Withdraw thy hand.
20Vtedy sa hurtom shromaždili, Saul i všetok ľud, ktorý bol s ním, a prišli až k bitke, a tu hľa, meč druha bol obrátený proti jeho druhovi, a bol náramne veľký zmätok.
20And Saul and all the people that were with him were gathered together, and came to the battle: and, behold, every man's sword was against his fellow, [and there was] a very great discomfiture.
21A boli aj Hebreji vše za Filištínov, ktorí tiež prišli s nimi do tábora na okolo, aj tí sa teraz obrátili, aby boli s Izraelom, ktorý bol so Saulom a s Jonatánom.
21Now the Hebrews that were with the Philistines as beforetime, and that went up with them into the camp, [from the country] round about, even they also [turned] to be with the Israelites that were with Saul and Jonathan.
22A všetci mužovia Izraelovi, ktorí sa skrývali na vrchu Efraimovom, počuli, že utekajú Filištíni, a pripojili sa aj oni a stíhali ich v boji bežiac tesne za nimi.
22Likewise all the men of Israel that had hid themselves in the hill-country of Ephraim, when they heard that the Philistines fled, even they also followed hard after them in the battle.
23Tak zachránil Hospodin Izraela toho dňa. A boj sa pretiahol až za Bét-áven.
23So Jehovah saved Israel that day: and the battle passed over by Beth-aven.
24A hoci boli mužovia Izraelovi ukonaní toho dňa, Saul zaviazal ľud prísahou povediac: Zlorečený muž, ktorý by jedol chlieb do večera, aby som sa pomstil na svojich nepriateľoch. A tak nikto zo všetkého ľudu neokúsil chleba.
24And the men of Israel were distressed that day; for Saul had adjured the people, saying, Cursed be the man that eateth any food until it be evening, and I be avenged on mine enemies. So none of the people tasted food.
25A všetok ľud zeme vošiel do lesa, kde bolo hojne medu na poli.
25And all the people came into the forest; and there was honey upon the ground.
26A keď vošiel ľud do lesa, videl, že hľa, tečie med, ale nikto nesiahol svojou rukou k svojím ústam, lebo ľud sa bál prísahy.
26And when the people were come unto the forest, behold, the honey dropped: but no man put his hand to his mouth; for the people feared the oath.
27Ale Jonatán nepočul, keď zaväzoval jeho otec ľud prísahou, a tak vystrel koniec svojej palice, ktorú mal vo svojej ruke, a omočil ho do plásta medu a obrátil svoju ruku k svojim ústam, a rozsvietily sa jeho oči.
27But Jonathan heard not when his father charged the people with the oath: wherefore he put forth the end of the rod that was in his hand, and dipped it in the honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth; and his eyes were enlightened.
28Na to odpovedal ktorýsi z ľudu a riekol: Tvoj otec veľmi zaviazal ľud prísahou a povedal: Zlorečený muž, ktorý by dnes jedol chleba, hoci bol ľud ustatý.
28Then answered one of the people, and said, Thy father straitly charged the people with an oath, saying, Cursed be the man that eateth food this day. And the people were faint.
29Na to riekol Jonatán: Môj otec zarmútil zem. Nože pozrite, že sa rozsvietily moje oči, keď som ochutnal trochu tohoto medu.
29Then said Jonathan, My father hath troubled the land: see, I pray you, how mine eyes have been enlightened, because I tasted a little of this honey.
30A čo by bolo bývalo len vtedy, keby sa bol dnes smele najedol ľud z koristi svojich nepriateľov, ktorú našiel! Lebo či by teraz nebola väčšia bývala porážka Filištínov?
30How much more, if haply the people had eaten freely to-day of the spoil of their enemies which they found? for now hath there been no great slaughter among the Philistines.
31A tak bili toho dňa z Filištínov od Michmasa až do Ajalona. A ľud bol veľmi unavený.
31And they smote of the Philistines that day from Michmash to Aijalon. And the people were very faint;
32Preto sa ľud vrhol na korisť a naberúc drobného dobytka a volov a teliat porážal na zem, a tak jedol ľud s krvou.
32and the people flew upon the spoil, and took sheep, and oxen, and calves, and slew them on the ground; and the people did eat them with the blood.
33Potom oznámili Saulovi a vraveli: Hľa, ľud hreší proti Hospodinovi, lebo jie s krvou. A povedal: Dopustili ste sa nevernosti. Dovaľte ihneď ku mne veľký kameň.
33Then they told Saul, saying, Behold, the people sin against Jehovah, in that they eat with the blood. And he said, ye have dealt treacherously: roll a great stone unto me this day.
34A zase povedal Saul: Rozídite sa medzi ľud a povedzte im: Doveďte ku mne každý svojho vola a každý svoje dobytča a zabíjajte tu a jedzte a nehrešte proti Hospodinovi jediac s krvou. A tak doviedol všetok ľud, každý vlastnoručne svojho vola tej istej noci, a zabíjali tam.
34And Saul said, Disperse yourselves among the people, and say unto them, Bring me hither every man his ox, and every man his sheep, and slay them here, and eat; and sin not against Jehovah in eating with the blood. And all the people brought every man his ox with him that night, and slew them there.
35A Saul postavil oltár Hospodinovi. To bol prvý oltár, ktorý postavil Hospodinovi.
35And Saul built an altar unto Jehovah: the same was the first altar that he built unto Jehovah.
36A Saul povedal: Nože sídime za Filištínmi vnoci a budeme lúpiť u nich až do ranného svetla a neponechajme z nich nikoho. A povedali: Urob, čokoľvek sa ti vidí za dobré. Ale kňaz riekol: Pristúpme prv sem k Bohu.
36And Saul said, Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and take spoil among them until the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them. And they said, Do whatsoever seemeth good unto thee. Then said the priest, Let us draw near hither unto God.
37A tak sa pýtal Saul Boha: Či mám sísť za Filištínmi? Či ich vydáš do ruky Izraelovej? Ale mu neodpovedal toho dňa.
37And Saul asked counsel of God, Shall I go down after the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into the hand of Israel? But he answered him not that day.
38Vtedy povedal Saul: Pristúpte sem, všetci náčelníci ľudu, a vyzveďte a vidzte, čím sa dnes vykonal tento hriech?
38And Saul said, Draw nigh hither, all ye chiefs of the people; and know and see wherein this sin hath been this day.
39Lebo jako že žije Hospodin, ktorý zachraňuje Izraela, keby to bolo hoci pre Jonatána, môjho syna, i ten zomrie. A nikto mu neodpovedal zo všetkého ľudu.
39For, as Jehovah liveth, who saveth Israel, though it be in Jonathan my son, he shall surely die. But there was not a man among all the people that answered him.
40Vtedy povedal všetkému Izraelovi: Vy buďte na jednej strane, a ja a Jonatán, môj syn, budeme na druhej strane. A ľud povedal Saulovi: Urob, čo uznáš za dobré!
40Then said he unto all Israel, Be ye on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side. And the people said unto Saul, Do what seemeth good unto thee.
41A Saul povedal Hospodinovi, Bohu Izraelovmu: Daj znať dokonale! A chytený bol Jonatán a Saul, a ľud vyšiel z toho.
41Therefore Saul said unto Jehovah, the God of Israel, Show the right. And Jonathan and Saul were taken [by lot]; but the people escaped.
42A Saul povedal: Hoďte los medzi mnou a medzi Jonatánom, mojím synom. A postihnutý bol Jonatán.
42And Saul said, Cast [lots] between me and Jonathan my son. And Jonathan was taken.
43Vtedy povedal Saul Jonatánovi: Povedz mi, čo si učinil? A Jonatán mu povedal a riekol: Koncom palice, ktorú mám vo svojej ruke, som naozaj okúsil trochu medu. Nuž hľa, preto zomriem.
43Then Saul said to Jonathan, Tell me what thou hast done. And Jonathan told him, and said, I did certainly taste a little honey with the end of the rod that was in my hand; and, lo, I must die.
44A Saul odpovedal: Nech tak učiní Bôh a tak nech pridá, že istotne zomrieš, Jonatáne!
44And Saul said, God do so and more also; for thou shalt surely die, Jonathan.
45Ale ľud povedal Saulovi: Či má zomrieť Jonatán, ktorý spôsobil túto tak veľkú záchranu v Izraelovi? Kdeže by! Jako že žije Hospodin, nepadne vlas s jeho hlavy na zem, lebo veď s Bohom to učinil dnes. A tak vyslobodil ľud Jonatána, a nezomrel.
45And the people said unto Saul, Shall Jonathan die, who hath wrought this great salvation in Israel? Far from it: as Jehovah liveth, there shall not one hair of his head fall to the ground; for he hath wrought with God this day. So the people rescued Jonathan, that he died not.
46Vtedy odišiel Saul hore nechajúc Filištínov, a Filištíni tiež išli na svoje miesto.
46Then Saul went up from following the Philistines; and the Philistines went to their own place.
47A Saul zaujmúc kráľovstvo nad Izraelom bojoval dookola proti všetkým svojim nepriateľom, proti Moábovi, proti synom Ammonovým, proti Edomovi, proti kráľom Cóby, proti Filištínom, a všade, kamkoľvek sa obrátil, páchal ukrutnosť.
47Now when Saul had taken the kingdom over Israel, he fought against all his enemies on every side, against Moab, and against the children of Ammon, and against Edom, and against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines: and whithersoever he turned himself, he put [them] to the worse.
48Keď potom nadobudnul moci, zbil Amalecha a tak vytrhol Izraela z ruky jeho lupiča.
48And he did valiantly, and smote the Amalekites, and delivered Israel out of the hands of them that despoiled them.
49A synovia Saulovi boli: Jonatán, Jišvi a Malkišua, a mená jeho dvoch dcér boly: meno staršej bolo Mérab, a meno mladšej Míkoľ.
49Now the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Ishvi, and Malchishua; and the names of his two daughters were these: the name of the first-born Merab, and the name of the younger Michal:
50A meno ženy Saulovej bolo Achinoam, dcéra Achimácova. A meno veliteľa jeho vojska bolo Abner, syn Néra, strýca Saulovho.
50and the name of Saul's wife was Ahinoam the daughter of Ahimaaz. And the name of the captain of his host was Abner the son of Ner, Saul's uncle.
51Kíš, otec Saulov, a Nér, otec Abnerov, bol syn Abielov.
51And Kish was the father of Saul; and Ner the father of Abner was the son of Abiel.
52A vojna bola krutá proti Filištínom po všetky dni Saulove. A kde videl Saul nejakého muža udatného alebo silného, vzal ho k sebe.
52And there was sore war against the Philistines all the days of Saul: and when Saul saw any mighty man, or any valiant man, he took him unto him.
