< 2 Samuel 12 >
1 Then the LORD sent Nathan to David, and when he arrived, he said, “There were two men in a certain city, one rich and the other poor.
Un Tas Kungs sūtīja Nātanu pie Dāvida. Un tas gāja pie viņa un uz to sacīja: divi vīri bija vienā pilsētā, viens bagāts un otrs nabags.
2 The rich man had a great number of sheep and cattle,
Un tam bagātam bija ļoti daudz avju un vēršu.
3 but the poor man had nothing except one small ewe lamb that he had bought. He raised it, and it grew up with him and his children. It shared his food and drank from his cup; it slept in his arms and was like a daughter to him.
Bet tam nabagam nebija it nekā kā viens vienīgs jēriņš, ko viņš bija pircis un uzaudzinājis, un tas pie viņa bija uzaudzis kopā ar viņa bērniem; tas ēda no viņa kumosa un dzēra no viņa biķera un gulēja viņa klēpī un bija viņam tā kā bērns.
4 Now a traveler came to the rich man, who refrained from taking one of his own sheep or cattle to prepare for the traveler who had come to him. Instead, he took the poor man’s lamb and prepared it for his guest.”
Kad nu pie tā bagātā vīra atnāca ceļinieks, tad tam bija žēl ņemt no savām avīm un no saviem vēršiem, ko laba sataisīt tam ceļiniekam, kas pie viņa bija atnācis, un viņš ņēma tā nabaga vīra jēriņu un to sataisīja tam vīram, kas pie viņa bija atnācis.
5 David burned with anger against the man and said to Nathan: “As surely as the LORD lives, the man who did this deserves to die!
Tad Dāvids dusmās iedegās pret to vīru varen ļoti un viņš sacīja uz Nātanu: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvs, tas vīrs, kas to darījis, pelnījis nāvi.
6 Because he has done this thing and has shown no pity, he must pay for the lamb four times over.”
Un to jēru tam būs četrkārtīgi atdot, tāpēc ka viņš tā darījis un ka nav žēlojis.
7 Then Nathan said to David, “You are that man! This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you from the hand of Saul.
Tad Nātans sacīja uz Dāvidu: tu esi tas vīrs. Tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs: Es tevi par ķēniņu esmu svaidījis Israēlim, un tevi esmu izpestījis no Saula rokas,
8 I gave your master’s house to you and your master’s wives into your arms. I gave you the house of Israel and Judah, and if that was not enough, I would have given you even more.
Un tev esmu devis tava kunga namu, un tava kunga sievas tavā klēpī, un Es tev esmu devis arī Israēla un Jūda namu. Un ja tas vēl nepietiek, tad Es šo un to vēl gribēju pielikt.
9 Why then have you despised the command of the LORD by doing evil in His sight? You put Uriah the Hittite to the sword and took his wife as your own, for you have slain him with the sword of the Ammonites.
Kāpēc tu tad Tā Kunga vārdu esi laidis pār galvu, darīdams, kas ļauns priekš Viņa acīm? To Etieti Ūriju tu esi nokāvis ar zobenu un viņa sievu sev ņēmis par sievu, bet viņu tu esi nokāvis ar Amona bērnu zobenu.
10 Now, therefore, the sword will never depart from your house, because you have despised Me and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your own.’
Nu tad zobens neatstāsies no tava nama ne mūžam, tāpēc ka tu Mani esi nicinājis un tā Hetieša Ūrijas sievu ņēmis sev par sievu.
11 This is what the LORD says: ‘I will raise up adversity against you from your own house. Before your very eyes I will take your wives and give them to another, and he will lie with them in broad daylight.
Tā saka Tas Kungs: redzi, Es vedīšu nelaimi pār tevi no tava paša nama un ņemšu tavas sievas priekš tavām acīm un tās došu tavam tuvākam; tas pie tavām sievām gulēs pašā saulē.
12 You have acted in secret, but I will do this thing in broad daylight before all Israel.’”
Jo tu to esi darījis slepeni, bet Es to darīšu visa Israēla priekšā un pašā saulē.
13 Then David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against the LORD.” “The LORD has taken away your sin,” Nathan replied. “You will not die.
Tad Dāvids sacīja uz Nātanu: es esmu grēkojis pret To Kungu. Un Nātans sacīja uz Dāvidu: tad nu Tas Kungs arī tavus grēkus ir atņēmis; tev nebūs mirt.
14 Nevertheless, because by this deed you have shown utter contempt for the word of the LORD, the son born to you will surely die.”
Tomēr tāpēc ka tu caur šo lietu Tā Kunga ienaidniekiem esi devis tiešām iemeslu zaimot, tad arī tam dēlam, kas tev dzimis, būs mirt.
15 After Nathan had gone home, the LORD struck the child that Uriah’s wife had borne to David, and he became ill.
Un Nātans gāja savā namā. Un Tas Kungs sita to bērnu, ko Ūrijas sieva Dāvidam bija dzemdējusi, ka tas palika ļoti slims.
16 David pleaded with God for the boy. He fasted and went into his house and spent the night lying in sackcloth on the ground.
Un Dāvids meklēja Dievu par to bērnu, un Dāvids gavēja un iegāja un gulēja par nakti pie zemes.
17 The elders of his household stood beside him to help him up from the ground, but he was unwilling and would not eat anything with them.
Tad visi viņa nama vecaji gāja pie viņa un viņu gribēja uzcelt no zemes, bet viņš negribēja un neēda maizes ar tiem.
18 On the seventh day the child died. But David’s servants were afraid to tell him that the child was dead, for they said, “Look, while the child was alive, we spoke to him, and he would not listen to us. So how can we tell him the child is dead? He may even harm himself.”
Un septītā dienā tas bērns nomira. Un Dāvida kalpi bijās viņam sacīt, ka tas bērns miris. Jo tie sacīja: redzi, kamēr tas bērns vēl bija dzīvs, tad mēs ar viņu runājām, un viņš negribēja mūsu balsi klausīt, kā tad lai viņam sakām, ka tas bērns miris, lai viņš nepadara ko ļauna?
19 When David saw that his servants were whispering to one another, he perceived that the child was dead. So he asked his servants, “Is the child dead?” “He is dead,” they replied.
Bet Dāvids redzēja, ka viņa kalpi klusiņām savā starpā runāja, un Dāvids manīja, ka tas bērns miris. Un Dāvids sacīja uz saviem kalpiem: vai tas bērns miris? Un tie sacīja: miris.
20 Then David got up from the ground, washed and anointed himself, changed his clothes, and went into the house of the LORD and worshiped. Then he went to his own house, and at his request they set food before him, and he ate.
Tad Dāvids cēlās no zemes un mazgājās un svaidījās un pārmija savas drēbes un gāja Tā Kunga namā un pielūdza. Pēc viņš nāca savā namā un pavēlēja, lai viņam maizi ceļ priekšā, un ēda.
21 “What is this you have done?” his servants asked. “While the child was alive, you fasted and wept, but when he died, you got up and ate.”
Tad viņa kalpi uz viņu sacīja: kas tas ir, ko tu dari? Kad tas bērns bija dzīvs, tad tu gavēji un raudāji, un kad nu tas bērns miris, tad tu celies un ēdi maizi?
22 David answered, “While the child was alive, I fasted and wept, for I said, ‘Who knows? The LORD may be gracious to me and let him live.’
Un viņš sacīja: kamēr tas bērns vēl bija dzīvs, es gavēju un raudāju, jo es domāju, kas zin, vai Tas Kungs par mani neapžēlosies, ka tas bērns paliek dzīvs.
23 But now that he is dead, why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I will go to him, but he will not return to me.”
Bet kad tas nu miris, kāpēc man būs gavēt? Vai es to vēl varēšu vest atpakaļ? Es gan iešu pie viņa, bet viņš pie manis atpakaļ negriezīsies.
24 Then David comforted his wife Bathsheba, and he went to her and lay with her. So she gave birth to a son, and they named him Solomon. Now the LORD loved the child
Un Dāvids iepriecināja Batsebu, savu sievu, un iegāja pie tās un gulēja pie tās. Un tā dzemdēja dēlu un tas nosauca viņa vārdu Salamanu. Un Tas Kungs to mīlēja.
25 and sent word through Nathan the prophet to name him Jedidiah because the LORD loved him.
Un viņš deva pavēli caur pravieti Nātanu, un šis nosauca viņa vārdu JedidJa (t.i. Dieva mīlēts) Tā Kunga dēļ.
26 Meanwhile, Joab fought against Rabbah of the Ammonites and captured the royal fortress.
Un Joabs karoja pret Rabu, Amona bērnu pilsētu, un ieņēma to ķēniņa pilsētu.
27 Then Joab sent messengers to David to say, “I have fought against Rabbah and have captured the water supply of the city.
Tad Joabs sūtīja vēstnešus pie Dāvida un sacīja: es pret Rabu esmu karojis un pilsētas lejas daļu jau ieņēmis.
28 Now, therefore, assemble the rest of the troops, lay siege to the city, and capture it. Otherwise I will capture the city, and it will be named after me.”
Tad nu sapulcini tos atlikušos ļaudis un apmeties pret to pilsētu un ieņem to, lai es neieņemu to pilsētu, un slava par to lai nepaliek man.
29 So David assembled all the troops and went to Rabbah; and he fought against it and captured it.
Tad Dāvids sapulcināja visus ļaudis un nogāja uz Rabu un karoja pret to un to ieņēma,
30 Then he took the crown from the head of their king. It weighed a talent of gold and was set with precious stones, and it was placed on David’s head. And David took a great amount of plunder from the city.
Un ņēma viņu ķēniņa kroni no viņa galvas, tam svars bija viens talents zelta un dārgu akmeņu, un tas Dāvidam tapa likts uz galvu; viņš arī ļoti lielu laupījumu izveda no tās pilsētas.
31 David brought out the people who were there and put them to work with saws, iron picks, and axes, and he made them work at the brick kilns. He did the same to all the Ammonite cities. Then David and all his troops returned to Jerusalem.
Un tos ļaudis, kas tur bija, viņš izveda un tos lika apakš zāģiem un apakš kuļamiem dzelzs ruļļiem un apakš dzelzs cirvjiem, un tos lika ķieģeļu cepļos. Tā viņš darīja visām Amona bērnu pilsētām. Un Dāvids un visi ļaudis griezās atpakaļ uz Jeruzālemi.
