2 Samuel 15
1 And it came to pass after this, that Absalom prepared him a chariot and horses, and fifty men to run before him.
Un pēc tam Absaloms sev sagādāja ratus un zirgus un piecdesmit vīrus, kas viņa priekšā skrēja.
2 And Absalom used to rise up early, and stand beside the way of the gate; and it was so, that when any man had a suit which should come to the king for judgment, then Absalom called unto him, and said: 'Of what city art thou?' And he said: 'Thy servant is of one of the tribes of Israel.'
Un Absaloms cēlās no rīta agri un nostājās ceļā pie vārtiem, un ja kam bija kāda tiesas lieta, par ko viņš pie ķēniņa nāca tiesāties, tad Absaloms to aicināja pie sevis un sacīja: no kuras pilsētas tu esi? Un kad tas sacīja: tavs kalps ir no šīs jeb tās Israēla cilts,
3 And Absalom said unto him: 'See, thy matters are good and right; but there is no man deputed of the king to hear thee.'
Tad Absaloms uz to sacīja: redzi, tava lieta ir laba un taisna, bet tev nav izklausinātāja pie ķēniņa.
4 Absalom said moreover: 'Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man who hath any suit or cause might come unto me, and I would do him justice!'
Un Absaloms uz to sacīja: ak! Kas mani celtu par zemes soģi, lai, ja kam kāds strīdus vai tiesas lieta būtu, nāktu pie manis un es tam gādātu taisnību!
5 And it was so, that when any man came nigh to prostrate himself before him, he put forth his hand, and took hold of him, and kissed him.
Un kad kāds pie viņa nāca un metās zemē, tad viņš izstiepa savu roku un to satvēra un to skūpstīja.
6 And on this manner did Absalom to all Israel that came to the king for judgment; so Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.
Tā Absaloms darīja visam Israēlim, kas pie ķēniņa nāca tiesāties. Tā Absaloms zaga sirdi Israēla vīriem.
7 And it came to pass at the end of forty years, that Absalom said unto the king: 'I pray thee, let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed unto the LORD, in Hebron.
Un pēc četriem gadiem Absaloms sacīja uz ķēniņu: es gribu noiet un savu apsolījumu Hebronē izpildīt, ko es Tam Kungam solījis.
8 For thy servant vowed a vow while I abode at Geshur in Aram, saying: If the LORD shall indeed bring me back to Jerusalem, then I will serve the LORD.'
Jo tavs kalps ir solījumu solījis, kad es Gešurā Sīrijā dzīvoju, sacīdams: ja Tas Kungs mani tiešām vedīs atpakaļ uz Jeruzālemi, tad es kalpošu Tam Kungam.
9 And the king said unto him: 'Go in peace.' So he arose, and went to Hebron.
Tad ķēniņš uz to sacīja: ej ar mieru. Un viņš cēlās un gāja uz Hebroni.
10 But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying: 'As soon as ye hear the sound of the horn, then ye shall say: Absalom is king in Hebron.'
Un Absaloms sūtīja izlūkus pie visām Israēla ciltīm un sacīja: kad jūs dzirdēsiet trumetes skaņu, tad jums būs sacīt: Absaloms ir ķēniņš Hebronē.
11 And with Absalom went two hundred men out of Jerusalem, that were invited, and went in their simplicity; and they knew not any thing.
Un ar Absalomu gāja divsimt vīri no Jeruzālemes, kas bija aicināti, bet tie gāja savā vientiesībā un nezināja it nenieka.
12 And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counsellor, from his city, even from Giloh, while he offered the sacrifices. And the conspiracy was strong; for the people increased continually with Absalom.
Absaloms sauca arī Ahitofelu no Ģilus, Dāvida padoma devēju, no viņa pilsētas Ģilus, kad viņš upurus upurēja. Un dumpinieku derība palika stipra un ļaudis pulcējās un vairojās pie Absaloma.
13 And there came a messenger to David, saying: 'The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom.'
Tad nāca vēstnesis pie Dāvida un sacīja: visu Israēla vīru sirds pieķērusies Absalomam.
14 And David said unto all his servants that were with him at Jerusalem: 'Arise, and let us flee; or else none of us shall escape from Absalom; make speed to depart, lest he overtake us quickly, and bring down evil upon us, and smite the city with the edge of the sword.'
Tad Dāvids sacīja uz visiem saviem kalpiem, kas pie viņa bija Jeruzālemē: ceļaties un bēgsim, citādi mums glābšanās nav priekš Absaloma; ejat steigšus, ka viņš steigdamies mūs nepanāk un nepadara mums nelaimi un nekauj to pilsētu ar zobena asmeni.
15 And the king's servants said unto the king: 'Behold, thy servants are ready to do whatsoever my lord the king shall choose.'
Tad ķēniņa kalpi uz ķēniņu sacīja: tā kā mans kungs, tas ķēniņš, nodomā, redzi, mēs esam tavi kalpi.
16 And the king went forth, and all his household after him. And the king left ten women, that were concubines, to keep the house.
Un ķēniņš izgāja ar visu savu namu kājām. Un ķēniņš atstāja desmit liekas sievas, to namu sargāt.
17 And the king went forth, and all the people after him; and they tarried in Beth-merhak.
Tā nu ķēniņš ar visiem ļaudīm kājām izgāja un apstājās pie pēdējā nama.
18 And all his servants passed on beside him; and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men that came after him from Gath, passed on before the king.
Un visi viņa kalpi gāja viņam līdzās, ir visi Krieti un visi Plieti ir visi Gatieši, sešsimt vīri, kas viņam no Gatas bija līdz nākuši, tie gāja ķēniņa priekšā.
19 Then said the king to Ittai the Gittite: 'Wherefore goest thou also with us? return, and abide with the king; for thou art a foreigner, and also an exile from thine own place.
Tad ķēniņš sacīja uz Itaju no Gatas. Kam tu arīdzan mums gribi iet līdz? Ej atpakaļ un paliec pie ķēniņa, jo tu esi svešinieks un tik ienācējs savā vietā.
20 Whereas thou camest but yesterday, should I this day make thee go up and down with us, seeing I go whither I may? return thou, and take back thy brethren with thee in kindness and truth.'
Vakar tu esi atnācis, vai man šodien tevi būs maldināt, mums iet līdz? Jo es eju, kur varēdams; ej atpakaļ un ved savus brāļus līdz atpakaļ; žēlastība un uzticība lai ir ar tevi.
21 And Ittai answered the king, and said: 'As the LORD liveth, and as my lord the king liveth, surely in what place my lord the king shall be, whether for death or for life, even there also will thy servant be.'
Bet Itajus atbildēja ķēniņam un sacīja: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvs, un kā mans kungs, tas ķēniņš, dzīvs, - tai vietā, kur mans kungs, tas ķēniņš, būs, lai būtu vai uz nāvi vai uz dzīvību, tur būs tavs kalps arīdzan.
22 And David said to Ittai: 'Go and pass over.' And Ittai the Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones that were with him.
Un Dāvids sacīja uz Itaju: nāc tad, iesim! Tā Itajus no Gatas gāja līdz ar visiem saviem vīriem un ar visiem bērniem, kas pie viņa bija.
23 And all the country wept with a loud voice, as all the people passed over; and as the king passed over the brook Kidron, all the people passed over, toward the way of the wilderness.
Un visa zeme raudāja lielas raudas, un visi ļaudis gāja garām. Un ķēniņš gāja pāri pār Kidronas upi, un visi ļaudis gāja pāri pa to ceļu uz tuksnesi.
24 And, lo, Zadok also came, and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of God; and they set down the ark of God — but Abiathar went up — until all the people had done passing out of the city.
Un redzi, arī Cadoks tur bija ar visiem Levitiem, kas Dieva derības šķirstu nesa; un tie nolika Dieva šķirstu un Abjatars tur pienāca - kamēr visi ļaudis no pilsētas bija izgājuši.
25 And the king said unto Zadok: 'Carry back the ark of God into the city; if I shall find favour in the eyes of the LORD, He will bring me back, and show me both it, and His habitation;
Tad ķēniņš sacīja uz Cadoku: nes Dieva šķirstu atpakaļ pilsētā. Ja es žēlastību atradīšu Tā Kunga priekšā, tad Viņš mani vedīs atpakaļ un man liks redzēt Viņu pašu ar Viņa dzīvokli.
26 but if He say thus: I have no delight in thee; behold, here am I, let Him do to me as seemeth good unto Him.'
Bet ja Viņš tā sacīs: Man nav labs prāts pie tevis, - redzi, še es esmu, lai Viņš man dara, kā Viņam patīk.
27 The king said also unto Zadok the priest: 'Seest thou? return into the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz thy son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.
Un ķēniņš sacīja uz priesteri Cadoku: tu redzētāj, ej atpakaļ uz pilsētu ar mieru, un Aķimaācs, tavs dēls, un Jonatāns, Abjatara dēls, jūsu abi dēli ar jums.
28 See, I will tarry in the plains of the wilderness, until there come word from you to announce unto me.'
Redziet, es gaidīšu tuksnesī pie braslām, tiekams kāda vēsts no jums atnāks un man dos ziņu.
29 Zadok therefore and Abiathar carried the ark of God back to Jerusalem; and they abode there.
Tā Cadoks un Abjatars Dieva šķirstu nesa atpakaļ uz Jeruzālemi un tur palika.
30 And David went up by the ascent of the mount of Olives, and wept as he went up; and he had his head covered, and went barefoot; and all the people that were with him covered every man his head, and they went up, weeping as they went up.
Un Dāvids kāpa uz Eļļas kalnu un iedams raudāja un savu galvu bija aptinis un gāja pats basām kājām, arī tie ļaudis, kas pie viņa bija, ikkatrs savu galvu bija aptinis un gāja uz augšu un iedami raudāja.
31 And one told David, saying: 'Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.' And David said: 'O LORD, I pray Thee, turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.'
Un Dāvidam teica un sacīja: Ahitofels ir starp dumpiniekiem pie Absaloma. Tad Dāvids sacīja: Kungs, dari jel Ahitofela padomu par ģeķību!
32 And it came to pass, that when David was come to the top of the ascent, where God was wont to be worshipped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat rent, and earth upon his head.
Kad nu Dāvids nāca kalna galā, kur mēdza Dievu pielūgt, redzi, tad Uzajus, tas Arķiets, viņam nāca pretī ar saplēstiem svārkiem un zemi uz galvas.
33 And David said unto him: 'If thou passest on with me, then thou wilt be a burden unto Me;
Un Dāvids uz to sacīja: ja tu man nāksi līdz, tad tu man būsi par nastu.
34 but if thou return to the city, and say unto Absalom: I will be thy servant, O king; as I have been thy father's servant in time past, so will I now be thy servant; then wilt thou defeat for me the counsel of Ahithophel.
Bet ja tu iesi atpakaļ pilsētā un sacīsi uz Absalomu: es būšu tavs kalps, ķēniņ, kā citkārt esmu bijis tava tēva kalps, tā nu es būšu tavs kalps, - tad tu man iznīcināsi Ahitofela padomu.
35 And hast thou not there with thee Zadok and Abiathar the priests? therefore it shall be, that what thing soever thou shalt hear out of the king's house, thou shalt tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.
Un vai tur pie tevis nebūs tie priesteri Cadoks un Abjatars? Tāpēc visu, ko tu ķēniņa namā dzirdēsi, to saki tiem priesteriem, Cadokam un Abjataram.
36 Behold, they have there with them their two sons, Ahimaaz Zadok's son, and Jonathan Abiathar's son; and by them ye shall send unto me every thing that ye shall hear.'
Redzi, tur ir viņu abi dēli, Aķimaācs Cadoka, un Jonatāns, Abjatara dēls, caur tiem jūs visu, ko dzirdat, sūtat pie manis.
37 So Hushai David's friend came into the city; and Absalom was at the point of coming into Jerusalem.
Tā Uzajus, Dāvida draugs, gāja pilsētā, kad Absaloms nāca uz Jeruzālemi.
