< 1 Samuel 11 >
1 And Nahash the Ammonite comes up, and encamps against Jabesh-Gilead, and all the men of Jabesh say to Nahash, “Make a covenant with us, and we serve you.”
Tad Naās, tas Amonietis, cēlās un apmeta lēģeri pret Jabesu Gileādā, un visi Jabesas vīri sacīja uz Naāsu: deri derību ar mums, tad mēs tev gribam kalpot.
2 And Nahash the Ammonite says to them, “For this I cut [a covenant] with you, in picking out every right eye of yours—and I have set it [for] a reproach on all Israel.”
Tad Naās, tas Amonietis, uz tiem sacīja: tā es ar jums gribu derēt derību, ka es jums visiem labo aci izduru un ka es visu Israēli tā lieku kaunā.
3 And [the] elderly of Jabesh say to him, “Leave us alone [for] seven days, and we send messengers into all the border of Israel: and if there is none saving us—then we have come out to you.”
Tad Jabesas vecaji uz viņu sacīja: dod mums septiņas dienas vaļu, ka mēs vēstnešus sūtam pa visām Israēla robežām; ja tad nav, kas mūs izpestī, tad mēs pie tevis gribam iziet.
4 And the messengers come to Gibeah of Saul, and speak the words in the ears of the people, and all the people lift up their voice and weep;
Kad nu tie vēstneši nāca uz Ģibeju, Saula pilsētu, un šos vārdus runāja priekš ļaužu ausīm, tad visi ļaudis pacēla savu balsi un raudāja.
5 and behold, Saul has come out of the field after the herd, and Saul says, “What [is that] to the people, that they weep?” And they recount the words of the men of Jabesh to him.
Un redzi, Sauls ar vēršiem nāca no lauka. Un Sauls sacīja: kas tiem ļaudīm kait, ka tie raud? Tad tie viņam stāstīja Jabesas vīru vārdus.
6 And the Spirit of God prospers over Saul, in his hearing these words, and his anger burns greatly,
Un Dieva Gars nāca pār Saulu, kad tas šos vārdus dzirdēja, un viņa dusmas ļoti iedegās.
7 and he takes a couple of oxen, and cuts them in pieces, and sends [them] through all the border of Israel, by the hand of the messengers, saying, “He who is not coming out after Saul and after Samuel—thus it is done to his oxen”; and the fear of YHWH falls on the people, and they come out as one man.
Un viņš ņēma jūgu vēršu un tos sakapāja gabalos un tos sūtīja pa visām Israēla robežām caur vēstnešu rokām, sacīdams: kas neizies Saulam pakaļ un Samuēlim pakaļ, tā vēršiem tāpat darīs. Tad Tā Kunga bijāšana krita uz tiem ļaudīm, un tie izgāja kā viens vienīgs vīrs.
8 And he inspects them in Bezek, and the sons of Israel are three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand.
Un viņš tos skaitīja Bazekā, un Israēla bērnu bija trīssimt tūkstoši un Jūda vīru bija trīsdesmit tūkstoši.
9 And they say to the messengers who are coming, “Thus you say to the men of Jabesh-Gilead: Tomorrow you have safety—by the heat of the sun”; and the messengers come and declare [it] to the men of Jabesh, and they rejoice;
Tad tie sacīja uz tiem vēstnešiem, kas bija nākuši: tā sakāt Jabesas vīriem Gileādā: rītu jums būs glābšana, kad saule spiež. Kad nu tie vēstneši nāca un Jabesas vīriem to stāstīja, tad tie priecājās.
10 and the men of Jabesh say [to the Ammonites], “Tomorrow we come out to you, and you have done to us according to all that [is] good in your eyes.”
Un Jabesas vīri sacīja: rīt mēs pie jums iesim ārā, lai jūs mums dariet, tā kā jums patīk.
11 And it comes to pass, on the next day, that Saul puts the people in three detachments, and they come into the midst of the camp in the morning-watch, and strike Ammon until the heat of the day; and it comes to pass that those left are scattered, and there have not been left two of them together.
Un otrā rītā Sauls tos ļaudis dalīja trijos pulkos, un tie uzbruka lēģerim gaismai austot un kāva Amoniešus, kamēr diena iekarsa; bet tie, kas atlika, tā tapa izklīdināti, ka viņu starpā ne divi nepalika kopā.
12 And the people say to Samuel, “Who is he that says, Saul reigns over us? Give up the men, and we put them to death.”
Tad tie ļaudis sacīja uz Samuēli: kas tie tādi, kas sacīja: vai lai Sauls pār mums valda? Dodiet šurp tos vīrus, lai tos nokaujam.
13 And Saul says, “There is no man put to death on this day, for today YHWH has worked salvation in Israel.”
Bet Sauls sacīja: šai dienā nevienam nebūs tapt nokautam, jo Tas Kungs šodien pestīšanu ir devis iekš Israēla.
14 And Samuel says to the people, “Come and we go to Gilgal, and renew the kingdom there”;
Un Samuēls sacīja uz tiem ļaudīm: nāciet, iesim uz Gilgalu un atjaunosim tur ķēniņa valstību.
15 and all the people go to Gilgal, and cause Saul to reign there before YHWH in Gilgal, and sacrifice sacrifices of peace-offerings there before YHWH, and Saul rejoices there—and all the men of Israel—very greatly.
Un visi ļaudis gāja uz Gilgalu un cēla tur Saulu par ķēniņu Tā Kunga priekšā Gilgalā, un upurēja tur pateicības upurus Tā Kunga priekšā. Un Sauls tur ļoti priecājās ar visiem Israēla vīriem.
