1 Samuel 26
1 The people of Ziph went to Saul at Gibeah and told him, “David's hiding on the hill of Hakilah, opposite the wastelands.”
Tad Zifieši nāca pie Saula uz Ģibeju un sacīja: vai Dāvids nav paslēpies uz Aķilas pakalna šaipus tuksneša?
2 So Saul went to the Desert of Ziph along with three thousand specially-picked men from Israel to search for David there.
Tad Sauls cēlās un nogāja uz Zifas tuksnesi, un viņam līdz trīstūkstoš izlasīti Israēla vīri, Dāvidu meklēt Zifas tuksnesī.
3 Saul set up camp beside the road at the hill of Hachilah opposite the wastelands, near to where David was living in the desert. When he realized that Saul had come looking for him there,
Un Sauls apmeta lēģeri uz Aķilas pakalna, kas šaipus tuksneša ceļmalā. Bet Dāvids palika tuksnesī. Un kad viņš redzēja, ka Sauls viņam pakaļ nāca tuksnesī,
4 he sent out spies and found out Saul had definitely arrived.
Tad Dāvids izsūtīja izlūkus un nomanīja Saulu tiešām nākam.
5 One night David got up and went over to Saul's camp and saw where Saul was sleeping, along with Abner, son of Ner, the army commander. Saul was lying in the middle of the camp with his men all around him.
Un Dāvids cēlās un nāca uz to vietu, kur Sauls bija apmeties, un Dāvids redzēja to vietu, kur Sauls gulēja ar Abneru, Nera dēlu, savu karalielkungu, un Sauls gulēja starp tiem savestiem lēģera ratiem, un tie ļaudis ap viņu bija apmetušies.
6 David asked Ahimelech the Hittite and Abishai, son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, “Who wants to go with me into the camp to Saul?” “I'll go with you,” Abishai replied.
Tad Dāvids bilda un sacīja uz Aķimeleku, to Etieti, un uz Abizaju, Cerujas dēlu, Joaba brāi, sacīdams: Kas man ies līdz pie Saula lēģerī? Tad Abizajus sacīja: es iešu tev līdzi.
7 So David and Abishai went to the army camp at night. Saul was sleeping there in the camp with his spear stuck in the ground beside his head, with Abner and his men sleeping around him.
Tad Dāvids un Abizajus nāca pie (Saula) ļaudīm naktī, un redzi, Sauls gulēja aizmidzis starp tiem savestiem lēģera ratiem, un viņa šķēps bija viņa galvas galā zemē iedurts, bet Abners un tie ļaudis gulēja ap viņu.
8 Abishai said to David, “God has handed your enemy over to you today. So please let me spear him to the ground in one go. I won't need to do it twice!”
Tad Abizajus sacīja uz Dāvidu: Dievs šodien tavu ienaidnieku ir devis tavā rokā; lai es nu viņu jel ar vienu reizi noduru ar šķēpu pie zemes, tad viņam otru reizi vairs nevajadzēs.
9 But David said to Abishai, “No, don't kill him! Who can attack the Lord's anointed one and not be guilty of a crime?
Bet Dāvids sacīja uz Abizaju: nenonāve viņu, jo kas savu roku varētu pielikt pie Tā Kunga svaidītā un palikt nenoziedzīgs?
10 As the Lord lives, the Lord himself will kill him. Either his time will come and he'll die, or he will go into battle and be killed.
Un Dāvids sacīja: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo, - ja Tas Kungs viņu nesitīs, vai nu viņa diena nāks, ka tas mirs, vai tas karā ies un ies bojā, -
11 May the Lord prevent me from attacking the Lord's anointed one. Just pick up the spear and water jug beside his head, and let's go.”
Lai Tas Kungs mani pasargā, ka es savu roku liktu pie Tā Kunga svaidītā! Tāpēc ņem jel nu to šķēpu, kas ir viņa galvas galā, un to ūdens biķeri un ejam.
12 David took the spear and water jug beside Saul's head, and they left. Nobody saw anything; nobody knew what had happened; nobody woke up. Everybody stayed asleep, because the Lord had made them fall into a deep sleep.
Tā Dāvids ņēma to šķēpu un to ūdens biķeri no Saula galvas gala, un tie gāja projām, un neviens to neredzēja, un neviens to nemanīja, un neviens neuzmodās, bet tie gulēja visi, jo ciets miegs no Tā Kunga tiem bija uzkritis.
13 Then David went back over to the other side, and stood on top of the hill far enough away—there was a considerable distance between them.
Kad nu Dāvids uz otru pusi bija pārgājis, tad viņš stāvēja kalna galā no tālienes, ka vēl plata vieta bija viņu starpā.
14 He shouted down to the army and Abner, son of Ner, “Aren't you going to answer me, Abner?” “Who is that shouting, disturbing the king?” Abner called back.
Un Dāvids uzkliedza tiem ļaudīm un Abneram, Nera dēlam, un sacīja: vai tu neatbildi Abner? Tad Abners atbildēja un sacīja: kas tu tāds esi, ka tu tā pret ķēniņu kliedzi?
15 David called to Abner, “Aren't you meant to be this great man? Is there anyone in Israel who is better than you? So why didn't you protect your master the king when someone came to kill him?
Tad Dāvids sacīja uz Abneru: vai tu neesi vīrs? Un kas tev ir līdzīgs iekš Israēla? Kāpēc tad tu savu kungu, to ķēniņu, neesi sargājis? Jo viens no tiem ļaudīm ir nācis, ķēniņu, tavu kungu, nonāvēt.
16 You haven't done well at all. As the Lord lives, you all deserve to die, because you did not protect your master, the Lord's anointed. Take a look around. Where are the king's spear and water jug that were beside his head?”
Tas nav labi, ko tu esi darījis; tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo, jo jūs nāvi esat pelnījuši, tāpēc ka jūs savu kungu, Tā Kunga svaidīto, neesat labāki sargājuši. Un nu redzi, kur ķēniņa šķēps ir un tas ūdens biķeris, kas bija viņa galvas galā?
17 Saul recognized David's voice and asked, “Is that you speaking, David, my son?” “Yes it's me, my lord and king,” David replied.
Un Sauls pazina Dāvida balsi un sacīja: vai šī nav tava balss, mans dēls Dāvid? Un Dāvids sacīja: mana balss, mans kungs un ķēniņ.
18 “Why is my lord hunting me, his servant? What is it that I've done? What crime am I guilty of?” he continued.
Un viņš sacīja: kāpēc mans kungs savu kalpu tā vajā? Jo ko es esmu darījis un kāds ļaunums ir manā rokā?
19 “Please listen to me, my lord and king. If the Lord has made you angry with me, then may he be happy to accept an offering. But if it's men that have done it, may they be cursed before the Lord! For all this while they've been driving me away from living among God's chosen people, telling me, ‘Go away and worship other gods.’
Un nu klausi jel, mans kungs un ķēniņ, sava kalpa vārdus. Ja Tas Kungs tevi pret mani skubina, tad lai viņš ož upura dāvanu, bet ja cilvēku bērni to dara, tad tie lai ir nolādēti priekš Tā Kunga, tāpēc ka tie mani šodien izdzen, ka es nevaru palikt iekš Tā Kunga mantības, sacīdami: ej, kalpo svešiem dieviem.
20 Please don't let me die so far from the presence of the Lord. The king of Israel has come to chase down one little flea, hunting me like someone who hunts a partridge in the mountains.”
Bet lai nu manas asinis pie zemes nekrīt tālu no Tā Kunga vaiga, jo Israēla ķēniņš ir izgājis vienu blusu meklēt, tā kā irbi medī uz kalniem.
21 “I've done wrong,” Saul replied, “Come back, David, my son. I won't ever try to harm you again, because you valued me and spared my life today. I've been so stupid! I've made a big mistake!”
Tad Sauls sacīja: es esmu grēkojis, griezies atpakaļ, mans dēls Dāvid, jo es tev vairs ļauna nedarīšu, tāpēc ka mana dvēsele šodien ir dārga bijusi tavās acīs; redzi, es esmu aplam darījis un ļoti noziedzies.
22 “I have the king's spear here,” said David. “Send one of your men over to collect it.
Tad Dāvids atbildēja un sacīja: redz, še ir ķēniņa šķēps, lai tad viens no tiem puišiem nāk un to paņem.
23 The Lord rewards all those who do what is right and who are trustworthy. The Lord handed you over to me today, but I refused to harm the Lord's anointed one.
Bet Tas Kungs lai ikvienam maksā pēc viņa taisnības un pēc viņa uzticības; gan Tas Kungs tevi šodien manā rokā bija devis, bet es savu roku negribēju likt pie Tā Kunga svaidītā.
24 In the same way as I valued your life today, may the Lord value my life, and may he rescue me from all my troubles.”
Un redzi, kā tava dvēsele šodien ir augsti turēta manās acīs, tā lai mana dvēsele augsti top turēta Tā Kunga acīs, un lai viņš mani izpestī no visām bēdām.
25 Saul said to David, “May you be blessed, David my son. You will accomplish a great deal and always be successful.” David left, and Saul went back home.
Tad Sauls sacīja uz Dāvidu: svētīts tu esi, mans dēls Dāvid, tiešām ko tu uzņemsies, to tu tiešām arī izvedīsi galā. Tad Dāvids gāja savu ceļu, un Sauls griezās atpakaļ uz savu vietu.
