< 1 Samuel 27 >

1 And David says to his heart, “Now I am consumed by the hand of Saul one day; there is nothing better for me than that I diligently escape to the land of the Philistines, and Saul has been despairing of me—of seeking me anymore in all the border of Israel, and I have escaped out of his hand.”
Un Dāvids domāja savā sirdī: taču man kādā dienā nāks gals caur Saula roku; man labuma nav, ja es glābtin neglābjos uz Fīlistu zemi, lai Sauls mitās mani joprojām meklēt visās Israēla robežās; tā es no viņa rokas izglābšos.
2 And David rises, and passes over, he and six hundred men who [are] with him, to Achish son of Maoch king of Gath;
Tad Dāvids cēlās un gāja ar tiem sešsimt vīriem, kas pie viņa bija, pie Aķisa, Maoka dēla, Gatas ķēniņa.
3 and David dwells with Achish in Gath, he and his men, each one with his household, [even] David and his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail wife of Nabal the Carmelitess.
Un Dāvids palika pie Aķisa Gatā, pats un viņa vīri, ikkatrs ar savu namu, Dāvids ar savām abām sievām, Aķinoamu, to Jezreēlieti, un Abigaīli, Nābala sievu, to Karmelieti.
4 And it is declared to Saul that David has fled to Gath, and he has not added to seek him anymore.
Kad nu Saulam sacīja, ka Dāvids aizbēdzis uz Gatu, tad viņš to vairs nemeklēja.
5 And David says to Achish, “Now if I have found grace in your eyes, they give a place to me in one of the cities of the field, and I dwell there, indeed, why does your servant dwell in the royal city with you?”
Un Dāvids sacīja uz Aķisu: ja es žēlastību esmu atradis priekš tavām acīm, tad lai man dod vietu vienā zemes pilsētā, ka es tur dzīvoju; jo kāpēc tavam kalpam ķēniņa pilsētā pie tevis būs dzīvot?
6 And Achish gives Ziklag to him in that day, therefore Ziklag has been for the kings of Judah until this day.
Tad Aķis viņam tai dienā deva Ciklagu. Tāpēc Ciklaga Jūda ķēniņiem pieder līdz šai dienai.
7 And the number of the days which David has dwelt in the field of the Philistines [is one year] of days and four months;
Un tas laiks, ko Dāvids Fīlistu zemē mita, bija viens gads un četri mēneši.
8 and David and his men go up, and they push toward the Geshurite, and the Gerizite, and the Amalekite (for they are inhabitants of the land from of old), as you come to Shur and to the land of Egypt,
Un Dāvids cēlās ar saviem vīriem un uzbruka Gešuriešiem un Ģirziešiem un Amalekiešiem, jo tie citkārt bija tie zemes iedzīvotāji līdz Šurai un Ēģiptes zemei.
9 and David has struck the land, and does not keep alive man and woman, and has taken sheep, and oxen, and donkeys, and camels, and garments, and turns back, and comes to Achish.
Un Dāvids kāva to zemi un nepameta dzīvus ne vīrus, ne sievas un ņēma avis un vēršus un ēzeļus un kamieļus un drēbes, un griezās atpakaļ un nāca pie Aķisa.
10 And Achish says, “To where have you pushed today?” And David says, “Against the south of Judah, and against the south of the Jerahmeelite, and to the south of the Kenite.”
Kad nu Aķis sacīja: kur jūs šodien esat ielauzušies? Tad Dāvids sacīja: pret dienasvidu iekš Jūda, un pret dienasvidu pie Jerameliešiem, un pret dienasvidu pie Keniešiem.
11 David keeps alive neither man nor woman, to bring in [word] to Gath, saying, “Lest they declare [it] against us, saying, Thus David has done, and thus [is] his custom all the days that he has dwelt in the fields of the Philistines.”
Un Dāvids ne vīrus, ne sievas nepameta dzīvus, ka tie netiktu uz Gatu; jo viņš sacīja: lai nenes vēsti pret mums, sacīdami: tā Dāvids mums ir darījis. Un tāds bija viņa darbs, cik ilgi tas Fīlistu zemē dzīvoja.
12 And Achish believes in David, saying, “He has made himself utterly abhorred among his people in Israel, and has been for a perpetual servant to me.”
Un Aķis ticēja Dāvidam un domāja, viņš sev smirdošu darījies priekš saviem Israēla ļaudīm, tāpēc viņš man mūžam būs par kalpu.
