< 1 Samuel 21 >
1 And David comes to Nob, to Ahimelech the priest, and Ahimelech trembles at meeting David and says to him, “Why [are] you alone, and no man [is] with you?”
Tad Dāvids nāca uz Nobu pie priestera Aķimeleka, un Aķimeleks gāja Dāvidam drebēdams pretī un uz to sacīja: kāpēc tu nāci viens pats, un neviena tev nav līdz?
2 And David says to Ahimelech the priest, “The king has commanded me [on] a matter, and he says to me, Let no man know anything of the matter about which I send you, and which I have commanded you; and [my] young men know [to go] to such and such a place.
Tad Dāvids sacīja uz priesteri Aķimeleku: ķēniņš man kādu lietu ir pavēlējis un uz mani sacījis: lai neviens nekā nezin no tās lietas, par ko es tevi esmu sūtījis, un ko es tev esmu pavēlējis; un saviem puišiem es esmu pavēlējis, tai un tai vietā uz mani gaidīt.
3 And now, what is there under your hand? Give five loaves into my hand, or that which is found.”
Nu tad, kas tev ir pie rokas? Dod man kādas piecas maizes, vai, kas atrodas.
4 And the priest answers David and says, “There is no common bread under my hand, but there is holy bread; if only the youths have been kept from women.”
Tad tas priesteris Dāvidam atbildēja un sacīja: še man nav ikdienišķas maizes pie rokas, bet vien tās svētās maizes; ja tikai tie puiši no sievām būs noturējušies.
5 And David answers the priest and says to him, “Surely, if women have been restrained from us as before in my going out, then the vessels of the young men are holy, and it [is] a common way; and also, surely it is sanctified today in the vessel.”
Tad Dāvids tam priesterim atbildēja un uz to sacīja: tiešām, sievas no mums ir nost bijušas vakar un aizvakar, kamēr es izgāju, un to puišu lietas bija svētas. Lai nu tas ceļš gan nav svēts, tomēr tas šodien taps svētīts caur to ieroci.
6 And the priest gives the holy thing to him, for there was no bread there except the Bread of the Presentation, which is turned aside from the presence of YHWH to put hot bread [there] in the day of its being taken away.
Tad tas priesteris tam deva svētu maizi, tāpēc ka citas maizes tur nebija, kā vien tās priekšliekamās maizes, kas no Tā Kunga vaiga bija atņemtas, ka atkal jaunas taptu uzliktas tai dienā, kad viņas tiek atņemtas.
7 And there [is] a man of the servants of Saul detained before YHWH on that day, and his name [is] Doeg the Edomite, chief of the shepherds whom Saul has.
Un tur bija viens vīrs no Saula kalpiem tai dienā ieslēgts Tā Kunga priekšā, un viņa vārds bija Doēgs, viens Edomietis, virsnieks pār Saula ganiem.
8 And David says to Ahimelech, “And is there not spear or sword here under your hand? For I have taken neither my sword nor my vessels in my hand, for the matter of the king was urgent.”
Un Dāvids sacīja uz Aķimeleku: vai tavā rokā nav kāds šķēps vai zobens? Jo es nedz savu zobenu nedz savas bruņas neesmu līdzi ņēmis, tāpēc ka ķēniņa lieta bija steidzama.
9 And the priest says, “The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you struck in the Valley of Elah, behold, it is wrapped in a garment behind the ephod, if you take it to yourself, take; for there is none other except it in this [place].” And David says, “There is none like it—give it to me.”
Tad tas priesteris sacīja: Fīlista Goliata zobens, ko tu ozolu ielejā nokāvi, redzi, tas ir še vienā drēbē ietīts aiz efoda; ja tu to gribi, tad ņem, jo te cita nav kā tas vien. Tad Dāvids sacīja: cita tāda nav, dod man to.
10 And David rises and flees on that day from the face of Saul, and comes to Achish king of Gath;
Un Dāvids cēlās un bēga tai dienā no Saula un nāca pie Aķisa, Gatas ķēniņa.
11 and the servants of Achish say to him, “Is this not David, the king of the land? Is it not of this one [that] they sing in dances, saying, Saul struck among his thousands, and David among his myriads?”
Tad Aķisa kalpi uz to sacīja: vai šis nav Dāvids, tās zemes ķēniņš? Vai no tā netapa dziedāts ar stabulēm un sacīts: Sauls tūkstošus kāvis, bet Dāvids desmit tūkstošus.
12 And David lays these words in his heart, and is exceedingly afraid of the face of Achish king of Gath,
Un Dāvids šos vārdus ņēma pie sirds un bijās ļoti no Aķisa, Gatas ķēniņa.
13 and changes his behavior before their eyes, and feigns himself mad in their hand, and scribbles on the doors of the gate, and lets down his spittle to his beard.
Tāpēc viņš izlikās ārprātīgs priekš viņu acīm un kā traks apakš viņu rokām kasīja vārtu durvis, un siekalas tam notecēja bārdā.
14 And Achish says to his servants, “Behold, you see a man acting as a madman; why do you bring him to me?
Tad Aķis sacīja uz saviem kalpiem: raugi, jūs redzat, ka tas vīrs ir traks, kāpēc jūs to pie manis esat atveduši?
15 Am I lacking madmen, that you have brought in this one to act as a madman before me? Does this one come into my house?”
Vai man traku nav diezgan, ka jūs šo pie manis esat atveduši, manā priekšā trakot, - vai tad tam būs nākt manā namā?
