2 Samuel 20
1 A rabble-rouser called Sheba, son of Bichri, from the tribe of Benjamin, happened to be there. He blew the ram's horn and shouted: “We have no interest in David, no commitment to Jesse's son. Israelites, let's all go home!”
Un tur gadījās netikls vīrs, Šebus vārdā, Bikra dēls, Benjaminietis; tas pūta trumetes un sacīja: mums daļas nav pie Dāvida, nedz mantības pie Isajus dēla, - ikviens no Israēla ejat savā dzīvoklī!
2 So all the men of Israel abandoned David to follow Sheba, son of Bichri. But the men of Judah accompanied their king all the way from the Jordan to Jerusalem.
Tad visi Israēla vīri gāja nost no Dāvida, Šebum, Bikra dēlam, pakaļ. Bet Jūda vīri turējās pie sava ķēniņa, no Jardānes līdz Jeruzālemei.
3 When David returned to his palace in Jerusalem, he took the ten concubines he had left to look after the palace and put them in a house under guard. He took care of their needs but he didn't sleep with them. They were imprisoned until they died, living like widows.
Kad nu Dāvids uz Jeruzālemi pārnāca savā namā, tad ķēniņš ņēma tās desmit sievas, savas liekas sievas ko viņš bija atstājis, to namu sargāt, un tās ielika kādā sargu namā un tās apgādāja, bet vairs pie tām negāja. Un tās bija ieslēgtas līdz savai miršanas dienai un dzīvoja par atraitnēm.
4 Then the king ordered Amasa, “Call up the army of Judah. Have them come to me within three days, and you come too.”
Un ķēniņš sacīja uz Amasu: sasauc man Jūda vīrus uz trešo dienu, un stāvi tu arīdzan te.
5 Amasa called up the army of Judah, but he took longer than the time he was given.
Tad Amasus gāja, Jūdu sasaukt, bet viņš kavējās pāri par nolikto laiku, ko tas viņam bija nolicis.
6 David then spoke to Abishai, saying, “Now Sheba the son of Bichri is going to cause us more trouble than Absalom did. Take the king's men and chase him down, or he will take over fortified towns and get away from us.”
Tad Dāvids sacīja uz Abizaju: nu mums Šebus, Bikra dēls, darīs vairāk ļaunuma nekā Absaloms. Ņem sava kunga kalpus un dzenies viņam pakaļ, ka viņš netiek stiprās pilsētās un neizzūd no mūsu acīm.
7 So Joab's men, along with the Cherethites, the Pelethites, and all the experienced fighters, marched out of Jerusalem to chase down Sheba, son of Bichri.
Tad Joaba vīri viņam izgāja pakaļ, ir tie Krieti un Plieti un visi varenie. Un tie izgāja no Jeruzālemes, Šebum, Bikra dēlam, dzīties pakaļ.
8 While they were at the large rock in Gibeon, Amasa caught up with them. Joab was dressed for battle. Over his clothes was a belt around his waist with a dagger in its sheath. As he moved forward, it fell out.
Kad tie nu pie tā lielā akmens nāca, kas ir Gibeonā, tad Amasus tos sastapa, bet Joabs bija apjozies pār savām drēbēm, kas viņam bija mugurā, un pār tām bija josta, kur zobens bija piesiets uz viņa gurniem savās makstīs, šis izslīdēja un tas (zobens) nokrita zemē.
9 “How are you doing, my brother?” Joab asked Amasa. Joab held Amasa by the beard with his right hand to kiss him.
Un Joabs sacīja uz Amasu: vai tev labi klājās, mans brāli? Un Joabs satvēra ar labo roku Amasus bārdu, viņu skūpstīt.
10 Amasa wasn't prepared for the dagger in Joab's left hand. Joab stabbed him in the belly and his intestines poured out onto the ground. Joab didn't need to stab him twice, because Amasa was already dead. Then Joab and his brother Abishai set off in pursuit of Sheba.
Un Amasus nesargājās no tā zobena, kas bija Joaba rokā, un tas viņam to iedūra vēderā, ka viņa iekšas izgāzās zemē un viņam otras reizes vairs nevajadzēja, un viņš nomira. Bet Joabs un viņa brālis Abizajus dzinās pakaļ Šebum, Bikra dēlam.
11 One of Joab's men stood beside Amasa and called out, “If you're on Joab's side, and if you are on David's side, then follow Joab!”
Un viens vīrs no Joaba puišiem palika pie viņa stāvot un sacīja: kam labs prāts ir pie Joaba, un kas Dāvidam (pieķeras), tas lai iet Joabam pakaļ.
12 But Amasa was there, lying in his blood in the middle of the main road. When the man saw that everybody was stopping to look, he pulled the body off the road into a field and threw a cloth over it.
Bet Amasus vārtījās asinīs ceļa vidū. Kad nu tas vīrs redzēja, ka visi ļaudis tur apstājās, tad viņš Amasu no ceļa novēla uz tīrumu un uzmeta viņam drēbes, tāpēc ka redzēja, ka ikviens, kas pie viņa pienāca, apstājās.
13 Once Amasa's body was off the road, all the men followed Joab in pursuit of Sheba.
Kad viņš nu no ceļa bija novelts, tad visi ļaudis gāja garām, Joabam pakaļ, Šebum, Bikra dēlam pakaļ dzīties.
14 In the meantime Sheba had gone around all the tribes of Israel and eventually ended up the town of Abel-beth-maacah. All the Bichrites gathered for battle and followed him into the town.
Un viņš gāja pa visām Israēla ciltīm uz Abelu un BetMaāku, un pa visu Berim-tiesu, un tie sapulcējās un gāja viņam pakaļ.
15 Joab's army came and besieged Sheba in Abel-Beth-Maacah. They built a siege ramp against the town's outer wall. While all of Joab's army was battering the wall to knock it down,
Un tie nāca un apmetās pret viņu Abel BetMaākā un uzmeta valni pret to pilsētu un tas stāvēja pie mūra, un visi ļaudis, kas pie Joaba bija, meklēja to mūri postīt un apgāzt.
16 a wise woman from the town called out, “Listen! Please listen! Tell Joab, ‘Come over here so I can speak to you.’”
Tad viena gudra sieva no pilsētas sauca: klausiet, klausiet, sakāt jel Joabam: nāc šurp, es ar tevi gribu runāt.
17 He went over to her, and the woman asked, “Are you Joab?” “Yes, that's me,” he replied. “Please listen to what I, your servant, have to say,” she said. “I'm listening,” he replied.
Kad viņš nu pie tās atnāca, tad tā sieva sacīja: vai tu esi Joabs? Un viņš sacīja: es tas esmu. Un tā uz viņu sacīja: klausies savas kalpones vārdus. Un viņš sacīja: es klausos.
18 Then the woman said, “In times gone by people used to say, ‘If you want advice, go to Abel,’ and that's how arguments were settled.
Tad viņa teica un sacīja: vecos laikos tā mēdza runāt: kas vaicā, lai vaicā Abelā, un tā tika galā.
19 I am one of the peaceful and faithful people of Israel. You're trying to destroy a town that's like a mother in Israel. Why do you want to tear down the Lord's possession?”
Es esmu no tiem mierīgiem un uzticīgiem iekš Israēla, un tu meklē tādu pilsētu izdeldēt, kas ir māte iekš Israēla. Kāpēc tu gribi aprīt Tā Kunga mantību?
20 “Certainly not!” Joab answered. “It's not what I want—to destroy or tear down this town!
Tad Joabs atbildēja un sacīja: lai Dievs pasargā, lai Dievs pasargā, ka es aprītu un ka es izdeldētu; tas tā nav.
21 That's not the intention. But a man called Sheba, son of Bichri, from the hill country of Ephraim, has rebelled against the king, against David. Just hand over this one man and I will withdraw from the town.” “Fine,” the woman replied, “his head will be thrown over the wall to you.”
Bet viens vīrs no Efraīma kalniem, Šebus vārdā, Bikra dēls, tas savu roku pacēlis pret ķēniņu, pret Dāvidu; dodiet man to vien, tad es aiziešu projām no pilsētas. Tad tā sieva sacīja uz Joabu: redzi, viņa galva pie tevis taps nomesta pāri pār mūri.
22 The woman went and talked with everyone about her wise plan. So they cut off the head of Sheba and threw it to Joab. Then Joab blew the ram's horn to sound the retreat, and all his men left the town and went home. Joab returned to the king in Jerusalem.
Un tā sieva nāca pie visiem ļaudīm ar savu gudrību, un tie Šebum, Bikra dēlam, nocirta galvu un to izmeta Joabam ārā. Tad viņš pūta trumetes, un tie izklīda no tās pilsētas projām, ikviens savā dzīvoklī, un Joabs griezās atpakaļ uz Jeruzālemi pie ķēniņa.
23 Joab commanded the whole army of Israel. Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, was in charge of the Cherethites and Pelethites.
Un Joabs bija pār visu Israēla karaspēku, un Benajus, Jojada dēls, pār tiem Krietiem un Plietiem,
24 Adoniram was in charge of the labor force. Jehoshaphat, son of Ahilud, kept the official records.
Un Adorams bija pār tiem darbiniekiem un Jehošafats, Aķiluda dēls, bija kanclers,
25 Sheva was the secretary. Zadok and Abiathar were the priests,
Un Zejus bija rakstu vedējs, un Cadoks un Abjatars bija priesteri,
26 and Ira the Jairite was David's priest.
Un arī Irus, Jaīra dēls, bija pie Dāvida lielskungs.
