Poslední slova

23 Toto jsou Davidova poslední slova:

Tak praví David, syn Jišajův,
tak praví povýšený Nejvyšším,
jehož pomazal Bůh Jákobův,
líbezný pěvec izraelský.

Promlouvá ze mě Hospodinův duch,
jeho slovo ve svých ústech mám.
Toto mi řekl izraelský Bůh,
On, skála Izraele, praví sám:

Kdo lidem spravedlivě vládne,
kdo v Boží bázni panuje,
je jako úsvit za východu slunce,
jak jasné jitro bezmračné;
je jako po dešti vyjasnění,
když tráva raší ze země.

Kdyby můj dům před Bohem tak nestál,
což by mi věčnou smlouvu dal,
cele platnou a stvrzenou?
Všechnu tu spásu, všechno to blaho
by rozkvést nenechal!

Darebák jak trní vyvržen bude,
rukou se takového nikdo nedotkne,
železo a tyč se na něj bere,
oheň ho spálí tam, kde je!

Davidovi hrdinové

Zde jsou jména Davidových hrdinů:

Jošeb-bašebet Tachkemonský, velitel Trojice. Uměl to s kopím tak, že [a] jich jednou pobil na osm set.

Další z té trojice hrdinů byl Eleazar, syn Doda, syna Achochiova. Ten byl s Davidem, když se odvážili na Filištíny. Ti se shromáždili k boji, a tak vytáhli také Izraelci; 10 tehdy vstal a pobíjel Filištíny, až mu ruka ztuhla, že nemohl pustit meč. Lid jen postupoval za ním a obíral pobité. Hospodin toho dne způsobil veliké vítězství.

11 Po něm byl Šama, syn Agea Hararského. Filištíni se jednou shromáždili u dílu pole osetého čočkou a lid se před nimi dal na útěk. 12 Šama se ale postavil doprostřed toho pole, uhájil je a Filištíny odrazil. Hospodin tehdy způsobil veliké vítězství.

13 Tito tři z třicítky velitelů sestoupili o žních k Davidovi do jeskyně Adulam, když v údolí Refaim tábořil oddíl Filištínů. 14 David byl tehdy ve skalní pevnosti. Betlém byl obsazen Filištíny. 15 David tenkrát zatoužil: „Kéž bych se mohl napít vody z té betlémské studny u brány.“ 16 A tak se ta trojice hrdinů probila do filištínského tábora a navážila vodu z betlémské studny u brány. Vzali ji a donesli Davidovi. Ten se jí ale odmítl napít, ale vylil ji jako oběť Hospodinu. 17 „Hospodin chraň,“ zvolal, „vždyť je to krev těch mužů! Šli tam s nasazením života!“ A nechtěl se napít.

Takové činy konala tato trojice hrdinů.

18 Velitelem Třicítky [b] byl Joábův bratr Abišaj, syn Ceruji. Oháněl se kopím tak, že jich pobil na tři sta, a tak se stal stejně známým jako ona Trojice. 19 Vskutku, mezi Třicítkou byl slavný a byl jejich velitelem, ale Trojici se nevyrovnal.

20 Také Benajáš, syn Jojadův z Kabceelu, byl udatný bojovník mocných činů. To on zabil ty dva Moábce, kteří se bili jako lvi. A jednou slezl do jámy a zabil v ní lva, tenkrát, když napadl sníh. 21 Jindy šel a zabil Egypťana jen s holí v ruce. Egypťan vypadal hrozivě, byl ozbrojen kopím. On mu je ale vytrhl z ruky a zabil ho jím. 22 Takové činy konal Benajáš, syn Jojadův, a tak se stal stejně známým jako Trojice. 23 Mezi Třicítkou byl slavný, ale Trojici se nevyrovnal. David mu svěřil svou tělesnou stráž.

24 Ke Třicítce patřili: Asael, bratr Joábův, Elchanan, syn Doda Betlémského; 25 Šama Charodský; Elika Charodský; 26 Chelec Paltiský; Ira, syn Ikeše Tekojského; 27 Abiezer Anatotský; Sibechaj [c] Chušatský; 28 Calmon Achochijský; Mahraj Netofský; 29 Cheled, syn Baany Netofského; Itaj, syn Ribaje z benjamínské Gibeje; 30 Benajáš Piratonský; Hidaj od potoka Gaaš; 31 Abi-albon Arbatský; Azmavet Bachurimský; 32 Eliachba Šaalbonský; Jašenovi synové Jonatan, 33 syn [d] Šamy Hararského, Achiam, syn Šarara Hararského; 34 Elifelet, syn Achasbaje z Maaky; Eliam, syn Achitofela Gilonského; 35 Checro Karmelský; Paaraj Arbejský; 36 Jigal, syn Nátanův z Cóby; syn Hagriho; [e] 37 Selek Amonský; Nachraj Beerotský, zbrojnoš Joába, syna Ceruji; 38 Ira Jitrejský; Gareb Jitrejský; 39 a Uriáš Chetejský.

Všech celkem bylo třicet sedm.

David’s Last Words

23 These are the last words of David:

“The inspired utterance of David son of Jesse,
    the utterance of the man exalted(A) by the Most High,
the man anointed(B) by the God of Jacob,
    the hero of Israel’s songs:

“The Spirit(C) of the Lord spoke through me;
    his word was on my tongue.
The God of Israel spoke,
    the Rock(D) of Israel said to me:
‘When one rules over people in righteousness,(E)
    when he rules in the fear(F) of God,(G)
he is like the light(H) of morning(I) at sunrise(J)
    on a cloudless morning,
like the brightness after rain(K)
    that brings grass from the earth.’

“If my house were not right with God,
    surely he would not have made with me an everlasting covenant,(L)
    arranged and secured in every part;
surely he would not bring to fruition my salvation
    and grant me my every desire.
But evil men are all to be cast aside like thorns,(M)
    which are not gathered with the hand.
Whoever touches thorns
    uses a tool of iron or the shaft of a spear;
    they are burned up where they lie.”

David’s Mighty Warriors(N)

These are the names of David’s mighty warriors:(O)

Josheb-Basshebeth,[a](P) a Tahkemonite,[b] was chief of the Three; he raised his spear against eight hundred men, whom he killed[c] in one encounter.

Next to him was Eleazar son of Dodai(Q) the Ahohite.(R) As one of the three mighty warriors, he was with David when they taunted the Philistines gathered at Pas Dammim[d] for battle. Then the Israelites retreated, 10 but Eleazar stood his ground and struck down the Philistines till his hand grew tired and froze to the sword. The Lord brought about a great victory that day. The troops returned to Eleazar, but only to strip the dead.

11 Next to him was Shammah son of Agee the Hararite. When the Philistines banded together at a place where there was a field full of lentils, Israel’s troops fled from them. 12 But Shammah took his stand in the middle of the field. He defended it and struck the Philistines down, and the Lord brought about a great victory.

13 During harvest time, three of the thirty chief warriors came down to David at the cave of Adullam,(S) while a band of Philistines was encamped in the Valley of Rephaim.(T) 14 At that time David was in the stronghold,(U) and the Philistine garrison was at Bethlehem.(V) 15 David longed for water and said, “Oh, that someone would get me a drink of water from the well near the gate of Bethlehem!” 16 So the three mighty warriors broke through the Philistine lines, drew water from the well near the gate of Bethlehem and carried it back to David. But he refused to drink it; instead, he poured(W) it out before the Lord. 17 “Far be it from me, Lord, to do this!” he said. “Is it not the blood(X) of men who went at the risk of their lives?” And David would not drink it.

Such were the exploits of the three mighty warriors.

18 Abishai(Y) the brother of Joab son of Zeruiah was chief of the Three.[e] He raised his spear against three hundred men, whom he killed, and so he became as famous as the Three. 19 Was he not held in greater honor than the Three? He became their commander, even though he was not included among them.

20 Benaiah(Z) son of Jehoiada, a valiant fighter from Kabzeel,(AA) performed great exploits. He struck down Moab’s two mightiest warriors. He also went down into a pit on a snowy day and killed a lion. 21 And he struck down a huge Egyptian. Although the Egyptian had a spear in his hand, Benaiah went against him with a club. He snatched the spear from the Egyptian’s hand and killed him with his own spear. 22 Such were the exploits of Benaiah son of Jehoiada; he too was as famous as the three mighty warriors. 23 He was held in greater honor than any of the Thirty, but he was not included among the Three. And David put him in charge of his bodyguard.

24 Among the Thirty were:

Asahel(AB) the brother of Joab,

Elhanan son of Dodo from Bethlehem,

25 Shammah the Harodite,(AC)

Elika the Harodite,

26 Helez(AD) the Paltite,

Ira(AE) son of Ikkesh from Tekoa,

27 Abiezer(AF) from Anathoth,(AG)

Sibbekai[f] the Hushathite,

28 Zalmon the Ahohite,

Maharai(AH) the Netophathite,(AI)

29 Heled[g](AJ) son of Baanah the Netophathite,

Ithai son of Ribai from Gibeah(AK) in Benjamin,

30 Benaiah the Pirathonite,(AL)

Hiddai[h] from the ravines of Gaash,(AM)

31 Abi-Albon the Arbathite,

Azmaveth the Barhumite,(AN)

32 Eliahba the Shaalbonite,

the sons of Jashen,

Jonathan 33 son of[i] Shammah the Hararite,

Ahiam son of Sharar[j] the Hararite,

34 Eliphelet son of Ahasbai the Maakathite,(AO)

Eliam(AP) son of Ahithophel(AQ) the Gilonite,

35 Hezro the Carmelite,(AR)

Paarai the Arbite,

36 Igal son of Nathan from Zobah,(AS)

the son of Hagri,[k]

37 Zelek the Ammonite,

Naharai the Beerothite,(AT) the armor-bearer of Joab son of Zeruiah,

38 Ira the Ithrite,(AU)

Gareb the Ithrite

39 and Uriah(AV) the Hittite.

There were thirty-seven in all.
