사무엘하 23

1이는 다윗의 마지막 말이라 이새의 아들 다윗이 말함이여 높이 올리운 자, 야곱의 하나님에게 기름 부음 받은자 이스라엘의 노래 잘하는 자가 말하도다 2여호와의 신이 나를 빙자하여 말씀하심이여 그 말씀이 내 혀에 있도다 3이스라엘의 하나님이 말씀하시며 이스라엘의 바위가 내게 이르시기를 사람을 공의로 다스리는 자, 하나님을 경외함으로 다스리는 자여 4저는 돋는 해 아침 빛 같고 구름 없는 아침 같고 비 후의 광선으로 땅에서 움이 돋는 새 풀 같으니라 하시도다 5내 집이 하나님 앞에 이 같지 아니하냐 하나님이 나로 더불어 영원한 언약을 세우사 만사에 구비하고 견고케 하셨으니 나의 모든 구원과 나의 모든 소원을 어찌 이루지 아니하시랴 6그러나 사악한 자는 다 내어 버리울 가시나무 같으니 이는 손으로 잡을 수 없음이로다 7그것들을 만지는 자는 철과 창자루를 가져야 하리니 그것들이 당장에 불사르이리로다 하니라 8다윗의 용사들의 이름이 이러하니라 다그몬 사람 요셉밧세벳이라고도 하고 에센 사람 아디노라고도 하는 자는 군장의 두목이라 저가 한 때에 팔백 인을 쳐 죽였더라 9그 다음은 아호아 사람 도대의 아들 엘르아살이니 다윗과 함께 한 세 용사 중에 하나이라 블레셋 사람이 싸우려고 모이매 이스라엘 사람들이 물러간지라 세 용사가 싸움을 돋우고 10저가 나가서 손이 피곤하여 칼에 붙기까지 블레셋 사람을 치니라 그 날에 여호와께서 크게 이기게 하셨으므로 백성들은 돌아와서 저의 뒤를 따라가며 노략할 뿐이었더라 11그 다음은 하랄 사람 아게의 아들 삼마라 블레셋 사람이 떼를 지어 녹두나무가 가득한 밭에 모이매 백성들은 블레셋 사람 앞에서 도망하되 12저는 그 밭 가운데 서서 막아 블레셋 사람을 친지라 여호와께서 큰 구원을 이루시니라 13또 삼십 두목 중 세 사람이 곡식 벨 때에 아둘람 굴에 이르러 다윗에게 나아갔는데 때에 블레셋 사람의 떼가 르바임 골짜기에 진 쳤더라 14그 때에 다윗은 산성에 있고 블레셋 사람의 영채는 베들레헴에 있는지라 15다윗이 사모하여 가로되 베들레헴 성문 곁 우물 물을 누가 나로 마시게 할꼬 하매 16세 용사가 블레셋 사람의 군대를 충돌하고 지나가서 베들레헴 성문 곁 우물 물을 길어 가지고 다윗에게로 왔으나 다윗이 마시기를 기뻐 아니하고 그 물을 여호와께 부어 드리며 17가로되 여호와여 내가 결단코 이런 일을 하지 아니하리이다 이는 생명을 돌아보지 아니하고 갔던 사람들의 피니이다 하고 마시기를 즐겨 아니하니라 세 용사가 이런 일을 행하였더라 18또 스루야의 아들 요압의 아우 아비새니 저는 그 삼 인의 두목이라 저가 창을 들어 삼백 인을 죽이고 그 삼 인 중에 이름을 얻었으 19저는 삼 인 중에 가장 존귀한 자가 아니냐 저가 저희의 두목이 되었으나 그러나 첫 삼 인에게는 미치지 못하였더라 20또 갑스엘 용사의 손자 여호야다의 아들 브나야니 저는 효용한 일을 행한 자라 일찍이 모압 아리엘의 아들 둘을 죽였고 또 눈 올 때에 함정에 내려가서 한 사자를 죽였으며 21또 장대한 애굽 사람을 죽였는데 그의 손에 창이 있어도 저가 막대를 가지고 내려가서 그 애굽 사람의 손에서 창을 빼앗아 그 창으로 죽였더라 22여호야다의 아들 브나야가 이런 일을 행하였으므로 세 용사 중에 이름을 얻고 23삼십 인보다 존귀하나 그러나 첫 삼 인에게는 미치지 못하였더라 다윗이 저를 세워 시위대 장관을 삼았더라 24요압의 아우 아사헬은 삼십 인 중에 하나요 또 베들레헴 도도의 아들 엘하난과 25하롯 사람 삼훗과 하롯 사람 엘리가와 26발디 사람 헬레스와 드고아사람 익게스의 아들 이라와 27아나돗 사람 아비에셀과 후사 사람 므분내와 28아호아 사람 살몬과 느도바 사람 마하래와 29느도바 사람 바아나의 아들 헬렙과 베냐민 자손에 속한 기브아 사람 리배의 아들 잇대와 30비라돈 사람 브나야와 가아스 시냇가에 사는 힛대와 31아르바 사람 아비알본과 바르훔 사람 아스마웻과 32사알본 사람 엘리아바와 야센의 아들 요나단과 33하랄 사람 삼마와 아랄 사람 사랄의 아들 아히암과 34마아가 사람의 손자 아하스배의 아들 엘리벨렛과 길로 사람 아히도벨의 아들 엘리암과 35갈멜 사람 헤스래와 아랍 사람 바아래와 36소바 나단의 아들 이갈과 갓 사람 바니와 37암몬 사람 셀렉과 스루야의 아들 요압의 병기 잡은 자 브에롯 사람 나하래와 38이델 사람 이라와 이델 사람 가렙과 39헷 사람 우리아라 이상 도합이 삼십칠 인이었더라

1Now these are the last words of David. David the son of Jesse says, the man who was raised on high says, the anointed of the God of Jacob, the sweet psalmist of Israel: 2“The Spirit of Yahweh spoke by me. His word was on my tongue. 3The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spoke to me, ‘One who rules over men righteously, who rules in the fear of God, 4shall be as the light of the morning, when the sun rises, a morning without clouds, when the tender grass springs out of the earth, through clear shining after rain.’ 5Most certainly my house is not so with God, yet he has made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things, and sure, for it is all my salvation, and all my desire, although he doesn’t make it grow. 6But all of the ungodly shall be as thorns to be thrust away, because they can’t be taken with the hand, 7But the man who touches them must be armed with iron and the staff of a spear. They shall be utterly burned with fire in their place.” 8These are the names of the mighty men whom David had: Josheb Basshebeth a Tahchemonite, chief of the captains; the same was Adino the Eznite, against eight hundred slain at one time. 9After him was Eleazar the son of Dodai the son of an Ahohite, one of the three mighty men with David, when they defied the Philistines who were there gathered together to battle, and the men of Israel were gone away. 10He arose, and struck the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand froze to the sword; and Yahweh worked a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to take plunder. 11After him was Shammah the son of Agee a Hararite. The Philistines were gathered together into a troop, where there was a plot of ground full of lentils; and the people fled from the Philistines. 12But he stood in the midst of the plot, and defended it, and killed the Philistines; and Yahweh worked a great victory. 13Three of the thirty chief men went down, and came to David in the harvest time to the cave of Adullam; and the troop of the Philistines was encamped in the valley of Rephaim. 14David was then in the stronghold; and the garrison of the Philistines was then in Bethlehem. 15David longed, and said, “Oh that one would give me water to drink of the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!” 16The three mighty men broke through the army of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David: but he would not drink of it, but poured it out to Yahweh. 17He said, “Be it far from me, Yahweh, that I should do this! Isn’t it the blood of the men who went in jeopardy of their lives?” Therefore he would not drink it. The three mighty men did these things. 18Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief of the three. He lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them, and had a name among the three. 19Wasn’t he most honorable of the three? therefore he was made their captain: however he didn’t attain to the three. 20Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done mighty deeds, he killed the two sons of Ariel of Moab: he went down also and killed a lion in the midst of a pit in time of snow. 21He killed an Egyptian, a goodly man: and the Egyptian had a spear in his hand; but he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and killed him with his own spear. 22Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did these things, and had a name among the three mighty men. 23He was more honorable than the thirty, but he didn’t attain to the three. David set him over his guard. 24Asahel the brother of Joab was one of the thirty; Elhanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem, 25Shammah the Harodite, Elika the Harodite, 26Helez the Paltite, Ira the son of Ikkesh the Tekoite, 27Abiezer the Anathothite, Mebunnai the Hushathite, 28Zalmon the Ahohite, Maharai the Netophathite, 29Heleb the son of Baanah the Netophathite, Ittai the son of Ribai of Gibeah of the children of Benjamin, 30Benaiah a Pirathonite, Hiddai of the brooks of Gaash. 31Abialbon the Arbathite, Azmaveth the Barhumite, 32Eliahba the Shaalbonite, the sons of Jashen, Jonathan, 33Shammah the Hararite, Ahiam the son of Sharar the Ararite, 34Eliphelet the son of Ahasbai, the son of the Maacathite, Eliam the son of Ahithophel the Gilonite, 35Hezro the Carmelite, Paarai the Arbite, 36Igal the son of Nathan of Zobah, Bani the Gadite, 37Zelek the Ammonite, Naharai the Beerothite, armor bearers to Joab the son of Zeruiah, 38Ira the Ithrite, Gareb the Ithrite, 39Uriah the Hittite: thirty-seven in all.

1Voorts zijn dit de laatste woorden van David. David, de zoon van Isai zegt, en de man, die hoog is opgericht, de gezalfde van Jakobs God, en liefelijk in psalmen van Israel, zegt: 2De Geest des HEEREN heeft door mij gesproken, en Zijn rede is op mijn tong geweest. 3De God Israels heeft gezegd, de Rotssteen Israels heeft tot mij gesproken: Er zal zijn een Heerser over de mensen, een Rechtvaardige, een Heerser in de vreze Gods. 4En Hij zal zijn gelijk het licht des morgens, wanneer de zon opgaat, des morgens zonder wolken, wanneer van den glans na den regen de grasscheutjes uit de aarde voortkomen. 5Hoewel mijn huis alzo niet is bij God, nochtans heeft Hij mij een eeuwig verbond gesteld, dat in alles wel geordineerd en bewaard is; voorzeker is daarin al mijn heil, en alle lust, hoewel Hij het nog niet doet uitspruiten. 6Maar de mannen Belials zullen altemaal zijn als doornen, die weggeworpen worden, omdat men ze met de hand niet kan vatten; 7Maar een iegelijk, die ze zal aantasten, voorziet zich met ijzer en het hout ener spies; en zij zullen ganselijk met vuur verbrand worden ter zelver plaats. 8Dit zijn de namen der helden, die David gehad heeft: Joscheb Baschebeth, de zoon van Tachkemoni, de voornaamste der hoofdlieden. Deze was Adino, de Ezniet, die zich stelde tegen achthonderd, die van hem verslagen werden op eenmaal. 9En na hem was Eleazar, de zoon van Dodo, zoon van Ahohi, deze was onder de drie helden met David, toen zij de Filistijnen beschimpten, die aldaar ten strijde verzameld waren, en de mannen van Israel waren opgetogen. 10Deze stond op, en sloeg onder de Filistijnen, totdat zijn hand moede werd, ja, zijn hand aan het zwaard kleefde; en de HEERE wrocht een groot heil ten zelven dage; en het volk keerde wederom hem na, alleenlijk om te plunderen. 11Na hem nu was Samma, de zoon van Age, de Harariet. Toen de Filistijnen verzameld waren in een dorp, en aldaar een stuk akkers was vol linzen, en het volk voor het aangezicht der Filistijnen vluchtte; 12Zo stelde hij zich in het midden van dat stuk, en verloste dat, en sloeg de Filistijnen; en de HEERE wrocht een groot heil. 13Ook gingen af drie van de dertig hoofden, en kwamen in den oogst tot David, in de spelonk van Adullam; en de hoop der Filistijnen had zich gelegerd in het dal Rafaim. 14En David was toen in een vesting; en de bezetting der Filistijnen was toen te Bethlehem. 15En David kreeg lust, en zeide: Wie zal mij water te drinken geven uit Bethlehems bornput, die in de poort is? 16Toen braken die drie helden door het leger der Filistijnen, en putten water uit Bethlehems bornput, die in de poort is, en droegen het, en kwamen tot David; doch hij wilde dat niet drinken, maar goot het uit voor den HEERE. 17En zeide: Het zij verre van mij, o HEERE, dat ik dit zou doen; zou ik drinken het bloed der mannen, die heengegaan zijn met gevaar van hun leven? En hij wilde het niet drinken. Dit deden die drie helden. 18Abisai, Joabs broeder, de zoon van Zeruja, die was ook een hoofd van drieen; en die hief zijn spies op tegen driehonderd, die van hem verslagen werden; en hij had een naam onder die drie. 19Was hij niet de heerlijkste van die drie? Daarom was hij hun tot een overste. Maar hij kwam niet tot aan die eerste drie. 20Voorts Benaja, de zoon van Jojada, de zoon van een dapperen man, groot van daden, van Kabzeel; die sloeg twee sterke leeuwen van Moab; ook ging hij af, en sloeg een leeuw in het midden van een kuil in den sneeuwtijd. 21Daartoe sloeg hij een Egyptischen man, een man van aanzien; en in de hand des Egyptenaars was een spies, maar hij ging tot hem af met een staf; en hij rukte de spies uit de hand des Egyptenaars, en doodde hem met zijn eigen spies. 22Die dingen deed Benaja, de zoon van Jojada; dies had hij een naam onder de drie helden. 23Hij was de heerlijkste van de dertig, maar tot die drie eersten kwam hij niet; en David stelde hem over zijn trawanten. 24Asahel, Joabs broeder, was onder de dertig; Elhanan, de zoon van Dodo, van Bethlehem; 25Samma, de Harodiet; Elika, de Harodiet; 26Helez, de Paltiet; Ira, de zoon van Ikes, de Thekoiet; 27Abi-ezer, de Anetothiet; Mebunnai, de Husathiet; 28Zalmon, de Ahohiet; Maharai, de Netofathiet; 29Heleb, de zoon van Baena, de Netofathiet; Ithai, de zoon van Ribai, van Gibea der kinderen Benjamins; 30Benaja, de Pirhathoniet; Hiddai, van de beken van Gaas; 31Abi-Albon, de Arbathiet; Azmaveth, de Barhumiet; 32Eljachba, de Saalboniet; van de zonen van Jazen, Jonathan; 33Samma, de Harariet; Ahiam, de zoon van Sarar, de Harariet; 34Elifelet, de zoon van Ahasbai, de zoon van een Maachathiet; Eliam, de zoon van Achitofel, de Giloniet; 35Hezrai, de Karmeliet; Paerai, de Arbiet; 36Jig-al, de zoon van Nathan, van Zoba; Bani, de Gadiet; 37Zelek, de Ammoniet; Naharai, de Beerothiet, de wapendrager van Joab, den zoon van Zeruja; 38Ira, de Jethriet; Gareb, de Jethriet; 39Uria, de Hethiet, zeven en dertig in alles.
