Jonathans Abmachung mit David.

David gab ihm zurück: Dein Vater weiß wohl, daß du Gefallen an mir gefunden hast, und denkt: Das braucht Jonathan nicht zu wissen, er könnte sich darüber betrüben - vielmehr, so wahr Jahwe lebt und so wahr du lebst, zwischen mir und dem Tod ist nur ein Schritt! 1Sam 25:26

1 Samuel 20:3 in different translations

German

Luther Da schwur David weiter und sprach: Dein Vater weiß wohl, daß ich Gnade vor deinen Augen gefunden habe; darum wird er denken: Jonathan soll solches nicht wissen, es möchte ihn bekümmern. Wahrlich, so wahr der HERR lebt, und so wahr deine Seele lebt, es ist nur ein Schritt zwischen mir und dem Tode.

ELO (1905) Und David fuhr fort und schwur und sprach: Dein Vater weiß wohl, daß ich Gnade gefunden habe in deinen Augen, und er hat gedacht: Jonathan soll dieses nicht wissen, damit er sich nicht betrübe. Aber doch, so wahr Jehova lebt und deine Seele lebt, nur ein Schritt ist zwischen mir und dem Tode!

ELO (modernisiert) Und David fuhr fort und schwur und sprach: Dein Vater weiß wohl, dass ich Gnade gefunden habe in deinen Augen, und er hat gedacht: Jonathan soll dieses nicht wissen, damit er sich nicht betrübe. Aber doch, so wahr der HERR lebt und deine Seele lebt, nur ein Schritt ist zwischen mir und dem Tod!

NeÜ Doch David widersprach: "Dein Vater weiß genau, dass ich deine Gunst gewonnen habe. Deshalb denkt er: 'Jonatan soll das nicht wissen, denn es könnte ihn schmerzen.' So wahr Jahwe lebt und so gewiss du lebst: Es war nur ein Schritt zwischen mir und dem Tod!"

KJV (66 books) And David sware moreover, and said, Thy father certainly knoweth that I have found grace in thine eyes; and he saith, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved: but truly as the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, there is but a step between me and death.

ASV And David sware moreover, and said, Thy father knoweth well that I have found favor in thine eyes; and he saith, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved: but truly as Jehovah liveth, and as thy soul liveth, there is but a step between me and death.

BSB But David again vowed, “Your father knows very well that I have found favor in your eyes, and he has said, ‘Jonathan must not know of this, or he will be grieved.’ As surely as the LORD lives and as you yourself live, there is but a step between me and death.”

DRA And he swore again to David. And David said: Thy father certainly knoweth that I have found grace in thy sight, and he will say: Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved. But truly as the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, there is but one step (as I may say) between me and death.

FBV But David swore an oath again, saying, “Your father knows very well that I'm your friend, and so he's told himself, ‘Jonathan can't find out about this, otherwise he'll be really upset.’ I swear on the life of the Lord, and on your own life, my life is hanging by a thread.”

GNV And Dauid sware againe and sayd, Thy father knoweth that I haue found grace in thine eyes: therefore he thinketh, Ionathan shall not knowe it, lest he be sorie: but in deede, as the Lord liueth, and as thy soule liueth, there is but a step betweene me and death.

JPS And David swore moreover, and said: 'Thy father knoweth well that I have found favour in thine eyes; and he saith: Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved; but truly as the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, there is but a step between me and death.'

LSV And David swears again and says, “Your father has certainly known that I have found grace in your eyes, and he says, Do not let Jonathan know this, lest he is grieved; and yet, YHWH lives, and your soul lives, but—as a step between me and death.”

NASB Yet David vowed again, saying, “Your father is well aware that I have found favor in your sight, and he has said, ‘Jonathan is not to know this, otherwise he will be worried.’ But indeed as the Lord lives and as your soul lives, there is just a step between me and death.” NASB 2020

NIV (US) But David took an oath and said, “Your father knows very well that I have found favor in your eyes, and he has said to himself, ‘Jonathan must not know this or he will be grieved.’ Yet as surely as the Lord lives and as you live, there is only a step between me and death.”

NIV (UK) But David took an oath and said, ‘Your father knows very well that I have found favour in your eyes, and he has said to himself, “Jonathan must not know this or he will be grieved.” Yet as surely as the Lord lives and as you live, there is only a step between me and death.’

NMV And David [beloved] swore moreover, and said, You1s father certainly knows that I have found grace in youi eyes; and he says, Let not Y’honatan [Yehovah has Given] know this, lest he be grieved: but truly [as] the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) lives, and [as] youi soul lives, [there is] but a step between me and death.

OJB And Dovid took an oath, moreover, and said, Avicha certainly knoweth that I have found chen in thine eyes; and he saith, Let not Yonatan know this, lest he be grieved; but truly as Hashem liveth, and as thy nefesh liveth, there is hardly a peysah (step) between me and mavet.

RV And David sware moreover, and said, Thy father knoweth well that I have found grace in thine eyes; and he saith, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved: but truly as the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, there is but a step between me and death.

T4T Then David solemnly declared this to Jonathan: “Your father knows very well that you and I are very good friends, so he says to himself, ‘I will not tell Jonathan what I am going to do. If I tell Jonathan, he will be upset/distressed, and then he will tell David.’ But just as certain as Yahweh lives and you live, I am only one step away from being killed.”

WEB (US) David swore moreover, and said, “Your father knows well that I have found favor in your eyes; and he says, ‘Don’t let Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved;’ but truly as Yahweh lives, and as your soul lives, there is but a step between me and death.”

WEB (UK) David swore moreover, and said, “Your father knows well that I have found favour in your eyes; and he says, ‘Don’t let Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved;’ but truly as the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, there is but a step between me and death.”

WEB (Updated) David swore moreover, and said, “Your father knows well that I have found favor in your eyes; and he says, ‘Don’t let Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved;’ but truly as the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, there is but a step between me and death.”

РСП (66 кн.) Давид клялся и говорил: отец твой хорошо знает, что я нашел благоволение в очах твоих, и потому говорит сам в себе: «пусть не знает о том Ионафан, чтобы не огорчился»; но жив Господь и жива душа твоя! один только шаг между мною и смертью.

РСП (юбил.) Давид клялся и говорил: «Отец твой хорошо знает, что я нашел благоволение в очах твоих, и потому говорит сам в себе: „Пусть не знает о том Ионафан, чтобы не огорчился“. Но жив Господь и жива душа твоя! Один только шаг между мной и смертью».

НРП Но Давид поклялся и сказал: — Твой отец прекрасно знает, что ты расположен ко мне, и он сказал себе: «Ионафан не должен об этом знать, иначе он опечалится». Но верно, как и то, что Господь жив и жив ты сам, — мне остался один шаг до смерти.

Заокская (Кулаков) Но Давид клятвенно убеждал его: «Отцу твоему хорошо известно, что ты благоволишь ко мне, и он мог решить про себя: пусть лучше Ионафан не знает этого, чтобы не огорчиться. Господом клянусь и жизнью твоей, что я на шаг от смерти!»

ВП Но Давуд поклялся и сказал: — Твой отец прекрасно знает, что ты расположен ко мне, и он сказал себе: «Ионафан не должен об этом знать, иначе он опечалится». Но верно, как и то, что жив Вечный и жив ты сам, — мне остался один шаг до смерти.

ВП-Т Но Довуд поклялся и сказал: — Твой отец прекрасно знает, что ты расположен ко мне, и он сказал себе: «Ионафан не должен об этом знать, иначе он опечалится». Но верно, как и то, что жив Вечный и жив ты сам, — мне остался один шаг до смерти.

СП (БЛ) Но Давид поклялся и сказал: «Твой отец хорошо знает, что я нашёл твоё благоволение, и поэтому сказал сам себе: „Ионафан не должен знать об этом, потому что обязательно расскажет об этом Давиду”. Но как то истинно, что ты и Господь живы, мне грозит неминуемая смерть!»
