1 Samuel 24
1 And it came to pass when Saul had returned from following the Philistines, that it was told him, saying, Behold, David is in the wilderness of Engedi.
Un notikās, kad nu Sauls no Fīlistiem bija griezies atpakaļ, tad viņam teica un sacīja: redzi, Dāvids ir Enģedu tuksnesī.
2 And Saul took three thousand men, chosen out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men upon the rocks of the wild goats.
Tad Sauls ņēma trīstūkstoš izlasītus vīrus no visa Israēla un gāja meklēt Dāvidu ar viņa vīriem uz tiem mežu kazu kalniem.
3 And he came to the sheepfolds by the way, where was a cave; and Saul went in to cover his feet; and David and his men were abiding in the recesses of the cave.
Un viņš nāca pie tiem avju laidariem ceļmalā; tur bija viena ala, un Sauls tanī iegāja savas kājas apsegt, bet Dāvids un viņa vīri sēdēja alas dibenā.
4 And David's men said to him, Behold the day of which Jehovah said to thee, Behold, I will give thine enemy into thy hand, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good to thee. And David arose, and cut off the skirt of Saul's robe secretly.
Tad Dāvida vīri uz to sacīja: redzi, šī ir tā diena, par ko Tas Kungs tev ir sacījis: “Redzi, Es tavu ienaidnieku dodu tavā rokā, un tev būs viņam darīt, kā tev tīk.” Un Dāvids cēlās un nogrieza klusiņām vienu stūri no Saula svārkiem.
5 And it came to pass afterwards that David's heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul's skirt.
Bet pēc tam Dāvidam sirds par to lēca, ka viņš to stūri no Saula svārkiem bija nogriezis.
6 And he said to his men, Jehovah forbid that I should do this thing to my master, Jehovah's anointed, to stretch forth my hand against him, for he is the anointed of Jehovah.
Un viņš sacīja uz saviem vīriem: lai Tas Kungs mani no tā pasargā, ka es ko darītu savam kungam, Tā Kunga svaidītam, un savu roku pie viņa pieliktu, - jo viņš ir Tā Kunga svaidītais.
7 And David checked his men with these words, and suffered them not to rise against Saul. And Saul rose up out of the cave, and went on [his] way.
Un Dāvids apsauca savus vīrus ar vārdiem un viņiem neļāva pret Saulu celties; un Sauls cēlās no tās alas un gāja pa ceļu.
8 David also arose afterwards, and went out of the cave, and cried after Saul, saying, My lord the king! And when Saul looked behind him, David bowed with his face to the earth, and did obeisance.
Tad arī Dāvids cēlās un izgāja no alas un sauca Saulam pakaļ un sacīja: mans kungs un ķēniņ! Tad Sauls skatījās atpakaļ. Un Dāvids locīdadamies ar savu vaigu nometās zemē.
9 And David said to Saul, Why dost thou listen to words of men, saying, Behold, David seeks thy hurt?
Un Dāvids sacīja uz Saulu: kāpēc tu klausi cilvēku vārdiem, kas saka: redzi, Dāvids meklē tavu nelaimi?
10 Behold, this day thine eyes have seen how that Jehovah had given thee this day into my hand in the cave; and they bade me kill thee; but [mine eye] spared thee; and I said, I will not put forth my hand against my lord, for he is the anointed of Jehovah.
Redzi, šodien tavas acis redz, ka Tas Kungs tevi šodien tai alā bija devis manā rokā. Un gan sacīja, lai es tevi nokauju, bet (mana roka) tevi žēloja, jo es sacīju: es nepielikšu savu roku pie sava kunga, jo viņš ir Tā Kunga svaidītais.
11 And see, my father, yes, see the skirt of thy robe in my hand. For in that I cut off the skirt of thy robe, and killed thee not, know and see that there is neither evil nor transgression in my hand, and I have not sinned against thee; yet thou liest in wait for my life to take it.
Redzi jel, mans tēvs, redzi savu svārku stūri manā rokā; jo kad es to stūri no taviem svārkiem nogriezu, tad es tevi neesmu nokāvis. Atzīsti tad un redzi, ka manā rokā nav nedz ļaunuma nedz blēdības, un ka pret tevi neesmu grēkojis; taču tu meklē manu dvēseli paņemt.
12 Jehovah judge between me and thee, and Jehovah avenge me of thee; but my hand shall not be upon thee.
Tas Kungs tiesās starp mani un tevi, tiešām Tas Kungs mani pie tevis atriebs, bet mana roka nebūs pret tevi.
13 As saith the proverb of the ancients, Wickedness proceedeth from the wicked; but my hand shall not be upon thee.
Tā kā top teikts pēc veca sakāma vārda: no bezdievīgiem nāk bezdievība; bet mana roka nebūs pret tevi.
14 After whom is the king of Israel come out? after whom dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, after a single flea.
Pret ko tu, Israēla ķēniņ, esi izgājis? Kam tu dzenies pakaļ? Vienam nedzīvam sunim, vienai blusai!
15 Jehovah therefore shall be judge, and judge between me and thee, and see, and plead my cause, and do me justice [in delivering me] out of thy hand.
Bet Tas Kungs būs par tiesnesi un tiesās starp mani un tevi, un redzēs un pārstāvēs manu tiesu un mani izglābs no tavas rokas.
16 And as soon as David had ended speaking these words to Saul, Saul said, Is this thy voice, my son David? And Saul lifted up his voice and wept.
Kad nu Dāvids bija beidzis šos vārdus uz Saulu runāt, tad Sauls sacīja: vai šī nav tava balss, mans dēls Dāvid? Un Sauls pacēla savu balsi un raudāja.
17 And he said to David, Thou art more righteous than I; for thou hast rewarded me good, whereas I have rewarded thee evil.
Un viņš sacīja uz Dāvidu: tu esi taisnāks nekā es. Jo tu man esi labu darījis, bet es tev ļaunu esmu atmaksājis.
18 And thou hast shewed this day how that thou hast dealt well with me, forasmuch as when Jehovah had delivered me up into thy hand, thou didst not kill me.
Un nu tu man šodien esi parādījis, ka tu pie manis esi labu darījis, kad Tas Kungs mani tavā rokā bija iedevis, bet tu mani neesi nokāvis.
19 For if a man find his enemy, will he let him go well away? wherefore Jehovah reward thee good for that thou hast done to me this day.
Kad, kas savu ienaidnieku atrod, vai viņš tam liks staigāt pa labu ceļu? Lai Tas Kungs tev labu atmaksā par to, ko tu šodien pie manis esi darījis.
20 And now behold, I know that thou shalt certainly be king, and that the kingdom of Israel shall be established in thy hand.
Un nu, redzi, es zinu, ka tu tiešām būsi par ķēniņu, un ka Israēla valstība stāvēs tavā rokā.
21 Swear now therefore to me by Jehovah, that thou wilt not cut off my seed after me, and that thou wilt not destroy my name out of my father's house.
Tad zvērē nu man pie Tā Kunga, ka tu manu dzimumu pēc manis negribi izdeldēt, nedz iznīcināt manu vārdu no mana tēva nama.
22 And David swore to Saul. And Saul went home; and David and his men went up to the stronghold.
Tad Dāvids zvērēja Saulam. Un Sauls gāja savās mājās, bet Dāvids un viņa vīri gāja uz augšu tai nepieejamā vietā.
