1 Chronicles 19
1 Now it happened that Nahash, the king of the sons of Ammon, died, and his son reigned in his place.
Un notikās pēc tam, ka Nahas, Amona bērnu ķēniņš, nomira, un viņa dēls palika par ķēniņu viņa vietā.
2 And David said: “I will act with mercy toward Hanun, the son of Nahash. For his father was gracious to me.” And so David sent messengers to console him over the death of his father. But when they had reached the land of the sons of Ammon, so that they might console Hanun,
Tad Dāvids sacīja: es darīšu žēlastību pie Anona, Nahasa dēla, jo viņa tēvs žēlastību darījis pie manis. Un Dāvids sūtīja vēstnešus, viņu iepriecināt par viņa tēvu. Tad Dāvida kalpi nāca uz Amona bērnu zemi pie Anona, viņu iepriecināt.
3 the leaders of the sons of Ammon said to Hanun: “Do you think that perhaps David has sent them to console you in order to honor your father? Have you not noticed that his servants came to you so that they might explore, and investigate, and examine your land?”
Bet Amona bērnu lielkungi sacīja uz Anonu: vai Dāvids godina tavu tēvu tavās acīs, ka tas sūtījis pie tevis iepriecētājus? Vai viņa kalpi nav tāpēc pie tevis nākuši, ka zemi izklausa un izposta un izlūko?
4 And so Hanun shaved the heads and beards of the servants of David, and he cut away their tunics from the buttocks to the feet, and he sent them away.
Tad Anons ņēma Dāvida kalpus un tiem nodzina bārdu un viņiem nogrieza vienu drēbju pusi līdz gurniem un tos atlaida.
5 And when they had gone, and had sent word to David, (for they had suffered a great disgrace, ) he sent to meet them, and he instructed them that they should remain at Jericho until their beards grew, and then they should return.
Un tie aizgāja. Un kad nu Dāvidam ziņu deva par tiem vīriem, tad viņš tiem sūtīja pretī, (jo tie vīri bija ļoti apsmieti, ) un ķēniņš tiem lika sacīt: paliekat Jērikū, tiekams jūsu bārda atkal būs ataugusi, tad nāciet atpakaļ.
6 Then, when the sons of Ammon realized that they had committed an injury against David, both Hanun and the rest of the people sent one thousand talents of silver, so that they might hire for themselves chariots and horsemen from Mesopotamia, and from Syrian Maacah, and from Zobah.
Kad nu Amona bērni redzēja, ka bija palikuši smirdoši Dāvida priekšā, tad Anons un Amona bērni sūtīja tūkstoš sudraba talentus, saderēt ratus un jātniekus no Mezopotamijas, no Maēkas un no Cobas.
7 And they hired thirty-two thousand chariots, and the king of Maacah with his people. When these had arrived, they made camp in the region opposite Medeba. Also, the sons of Ammon, gathering from their cities, went to war.
Un tie sev saderēja trīsdesmit un divi tūkstoš ratus un to ķēniņu no Maēkas un viņa ļaudis, un tie nāca un apmeta lēģeri pret Medbu. Un Amona bērni arīdzan sapulcējās no savām pilsētām un nāca karā.
8 And when David had heard this, he sent Joab and the entire army of strong men.
Kad nu Dāvids to dzirdēja, tad viņš sūtīja Joabu un visu spēku ar tiem vareniem.
9 And the sons of Ammon, going out, set up a battle line before the gate of the city. But the kings who had come to their aid stood separately in the field.
Un Amona bērni izgāja un nostājās uz kauju priekš pilsētas vārtiem. Bet tie ķēniņi, kas bija nākuši, turējās savrup laukā.
10 And so Joab, understanding the war to be set facing him and behind his back, chose the strongest men from all of Israel, and he went out against the Syrians.
Kad nu Joabs redzēja, ka karš pret viņu taisījās no priekšas un no aizmugures, tad viņš izlasīja kādus no Israēla jauniem vīriem un nostājās Sīriešiem pretī.
11 But the remaining portion of the people he placed under the hand of his brother Abishai. And they went out against the sons of Ammon.
Bet tos citus ļaudis viņš deva Abizajam, savam brālim, rokā, un tie nostājās pret Amona bērniem.
12 And he said: “If the Syrians prevail over me, then you shall be a help to me. But if the sons of Ammon prevail over you, I will be a safeguard for you.
Un viņš sacīja: ja Sīrieši būs stiprāki nekā es, tad nāc tu man palīgā, bet ja Amona bērni būs stiprāki nekā tu, tad es nākušu tev palīgā.
13 Be strengthened, and let us act manfully on behalf of our people, and on behalf of the cities of our God. And the Lord will do what is good in his own sight.”
Turies droši un lai stipri cīnāmies priekš saviem ļaudīm un priekš sava Dieva pilsētām, un Tas Kungs lai dara, kā tam patīk.
14 Therefore, Joab, and the people who were with him, went out to battle against the Syrians. And he put them to flight.
Un Joabs nāca tuvāki ar saviem ļaudīm, kas pie viņa bija, kauties ar Sīriešiem, bet tie bēga viņa priekšā.
15 Then the sons of Ammon, seeing that the Syrians had fled, also themselves fled from Abishai, his brother, and they entered into the city. And now Joab returned to Jerusalem.
Un kad Amona bērni redzēja, kā Sīrieši bēga, tad tie arīdzan bēga priekš Abizajus, viņa brāļa, un tie nāca pilsētā, un Joabs nāca uz Jeruzālemi.
16 But the Syrians, seeing that they had fallen before Israel, sent messengers, and they brought the Syrians who were across the river. And Shophach, the leader of the military of Hadadezer, was their commander.
Kad nu Sīrieši redzēja, ka Israēla priekšā bija sakauti, tad tie sūtīja vēstnešus un lika nākt tiem Sīriešiem, kas viņpus upes dzīvoja, un Šofahs, HadadEzera kara lielskungs, gāja viņu priekšā.
17 When this had been reported to David, he gathered together all of Israel, and he crossed the Jordan. And he rushed toward them. And he set up a battle line facing them. And they fought against him.
Kad to Dāvidam teica, tad viņš sapulcēja visu Israēli un pārgāja pār Jardāni, un nāca pie tiem un nostājās tiem pretī. Un Dāvids nostājās Sīriešiem pretī uz kauju, un tie ar viņu kāvās.
18 But the Syrians fled from Israel. And David killed of the Syrians seven thousand chariots, and forty thousand men on foot, and Shophach, the leader of the army.
Bet Sīrieši bēga Israēla priekšā, un Dāvids nokāva no Sīriešiem septiņ tūkstoš ratus un četrdesmit tūkstoš kājniekus; viņš nokāva arī Šofahu, to kara lielkungu.
19 Then the servants of Hadadezer, seeing themselves to be overwhelmed by Israel, crossed over to David, and they served him. And Syria was no longer willing to offer aid to the sons of Ammon.
Kad nu HadadEzera kalpi redzēja, ka Israēla priekšā bija sakauti, tad tie derēja mieru ar Dāvidu un viņam kalpoja. Un Sīrieši negribēja vairs Amona bērniem palīdzēt.
