< 2 Samuel 4 >
1 And when Saul's son heard that Abner had died in Hebron, his hands became enfeebled, and all the Israelites were troubled.
Kad nu Saula dēls dzirdēja, ka Abners Hebronē bija miris, tad viņa rokas nogura un viss Israēls iztrūkās.
2 And Saul's son had two men who were captains of bands; the name of the one was Ba'anah, and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin: (for Beeroth also was reckoned to Benjamin:
Un Saula dēlam bija divi vīri, sirotāju virsnieki, un vienam bija vārds Baēna un otram Rekabs, Rimona dēli, no Beērotas, no Benjamina bērniem, (jo Beērota arīdzan Benjamina bērniem top pieskaitīta;
3 And the Beerothites had fled to Gittayim, and remained sojourners there until this day.)
Un tie Beērotieši bija bēguši uz Ģetaīm un bija tur piemitēji līdz šai dienai.)
4 And Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son that was lame on both feet. He was five years old when the tidings came of Saul and Jonathan from Yizre'el, and his nurse took him up and fled: and it came to pass, in her haste to flee, that he fell, and was rendered lame. And his name was Mephibosheth.
Un Jonatānam, Saula dēlam, bija dēls, tas bija tizls uz abējām kājām; pieci gadus viņš bija vecs, kad tā vēsts no Jezreēles nāca par Saulu un Jonatānu, un viņa emma viņu bija uzņēmusi un bēgusi, un tai steigšus bēgot viņš bija kritis un par kropli palicis, un viņa vārds bija Mefibošets.
5 And the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Ba'anah, went, and came at the heat of the day to the house of Ish-bosheth, who was just lying in bed as usual at noon.
Un Rimona, tā Beērotieša, dēli, Rekabs un Baēna, nogāja un nāca uz Išbošeta namu pašā dienas karstumā un viņš gulēja uz gultas dienasvidū.
6 And they came thither into the interior of the house, as buyers of wheat; and they smote him under the fifth rib: and Rechab and Ba'anah his brother escaped.
Un tie gāja namā iekšā, tā kā kviešus ņemt, un iedūra viņam vēderā, un Rekabs un Baēna, viņa brālis, aizbēga.
7 Namely, they came into the house, while he was lying on his bed in his sleeping-chamber, and they smote him, and slew him, and cut off his head, and took his head, and went by the way of the plain all the night.
Tie nāca namā, viņam uz gultas guļot savā guļamā istabā, un to sita un nokāva, un viņam nocirta galvu, un tie ņēma viņa galvu un gāja pa klajuma ceļu visu nakti.
8 And they brought the head of Ish-bosheth unto David to Hebron, and they said to the king, Behold, here is the head of Ish-bosheth the son of Saul thy enemy, who sought thy life: and the Lord hath granted to my lord the king vengeance this day on Saul, and on his seed.
Un tie nesa Išbošeta galvu pie Dāvida uz Hebroni un sacīja uz ķēniņu: redzi, še ir Išbošeta, Saula dēla, tava ienaidnieka, galva, kas tavu dzīvību meklēja. Tā Tas Kungs manu kungu, to ķēniņu, šodien ir atriebis pie Saula un viņa dzimuma.
9 But David answered Rechab and Ba'anah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said unto them, As the Lord liveth, who hath redeemed my soul out of all adversity,
Bet Dāvids atbildēja Rekabam un viņa brālim Baēnam, Rimona, tā Beērotieša, dēliem, un uz tiem sacīja: tik tiešām, kā Tas Kungs dzīvs, kas manu dvēseli ir atpestījis no visām bēdām,
10 When one told me, saying, Behold, Saul is dead, and he was in his own eyes as though he brought good tidings, I took hold of him, and slew him in Ziklag, who [thought] that I should give him a reward for his tidings:
Kas man to vēsti nesa, sacīdams: redzi, Sauls ir nomiris! Un šķitās labu vēsti nesot, to es sagrābu un nokāvu Ciklagā, dot tam vēstneša algu;
11 How much more, when wicked men have slain a righteous man in his own house upon his bed? and now, behold, I will require his blood of your hand, and I will remove you away from the earth.
Jo vairāk, kad bezdievīgi vīri taisnu vīru viņa namā uz viņa gultas nokāvuši, - un nu, vai man nebūs meklēt viņa asinis no jūsu rokām un jūs izdeldēt no zemes?
12 And David gave the command to the young men, and they slew them, and cut off their hands and their feet, and hanged them up by the pool in Hebron. But the head of Ish-bosheth they took, and buried it in the sepulchre of Abner in Hebron.
Un Dāvids pavēlēja saviem puišiem, un tie tos nokāva un nocirta viņiem rokas un kājās un tos uzkāra pie Hebrones dīķa. Bet Išbošeta galvu tie ņēma un apraka Abnera kapā Hebronē.
