< 2 Samuel 12 >
1 So Jehovah sent Nathan to David. And he came to him, and said to him, "Tell me how you judge this case. There were two men in a certain city, the one rich and the other poor.
Un Tas Kungs sūtīja Nātanu pie Dāvida. Un tas gāja pie viņa un uz to sacīja: divi vīri bija vienā pilsētā, viens bagāts un otrs nabags.
2 The rich man had very many flocks and herds,
Un tam bagātam bija ļoti daudz avju un vēršu.
3 but the poor man had nothing, except one little ewe lamb, which he had acquired. And he raised it and it grew up alongside him and his children. It used to eat of his morsel and drink from his cup and sleep in his arms, and it was like a daughter to him.
Bet tam nabagam nebija it nekā kā viens vienīgs jēriņš, ko viņš bija pircis un uzaudzinājis, un tas pie viņa bija uzaudzis kopā ar viņa bērniem; tas ēda no viņa kumosa un dzēra no viņa biķera un gulēja viņa klēpī un bija viņam tā kā bērns.
4 Now a traveler came to the rich man, but he was unwilling to take from his own flock or his own herd to prepare for the traveler who had come to him, but took the poor man's lamb and prepared it for the man who had come to him."
Kad nu pie tā bagātā vīra atnāca ceļinieks, tad tam bija žēl ņemt no savām avīm un no saviem vēršiem, ko laba sataisīt tam ceļiniekam, kas pie viņa bija atnācis, un viņš ņēma tā nabaga vīra jēriņu un to sataisīja tam vīram, kas pie viņa bija atnācis.
5 Then David became very angry with that man, and he said to Nathan, "As Jehovah lives, the man who has done this deserves death.
Tad Dāvids dusmās iedegās pret to vīru varen ļoti un viņš sacīja uz Nātanu: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvs, tas vīrs, kas to darījis, pelnījis nāvi.
6 He must restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing, and because he had no pity."
Un to jēru tam būs četrkārtīgi atdot, tāpēc ka viņš tā darījis un ka nav žēlojis.
7 Then Nathan said to David, "You are the man. This is what Jehovah, the God of Israel, says: 'I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you out of the hand of Saul.
Tad Nātans sacīja uz Dāvidu: tu esi tas vīrs. Tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs: Es tevi par ķēniņu esmu svaidījis Israēlim, un tevi esmu izpestījis no Saula rokas,
8 I gave you your master's house, and your master's wives into your care, and gave you the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that would have been too little, I would have added to you many more such things.
Un tev esmu devis tava kunga namu, un tava kunga sievas tavā klēpī, un Es tev esmu devis arī Israēla un Jūda namu. Un ja tas vēl nepietiek, tad Es šo un to vēl gribēju pielikt.
9 Why have you despised Jehovah, to do that which is evil in his sight? You have struck Uriah the Hethite with the sword, and have taken his wife to be your wife, and have slain him with the sword of the people of Ammon.
Kāpēc tu tad Tā Kunga vārdu esi laidis pār galvu, darīdams, kas ļauns priekš Viņa acīm? To Etieti Ūriju tu esi nokāvis ar zobenu un viņa sievu sev ņēmis par sievu, bet viņu tu esi nokāvis ar Amona bērnu zobenu.
10 Now therefore the sword will never depart from your house, because you have despised me, and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hethite to be your wife.'
Nu tad zobens neatstāsies no tava nama ne mūžam, tāpēc ka tu Mani esi nicinājis un tā Hetieša Ūrijas sievu ņēmis sev par sievu.
11 "This is what Jehovah says: 'Look, I will raise up evil against you out of your own house; and I will take your wives before your eyes, and give them to your neighbor, and he will lie with your wives in the sight of this sun.
Tā saka Tas Kungs: redzi, Es vedīšu nelaimi pār tevi no tava paša nama un ņemšu tavas sievas priekš tavām acīm un tās došu tavam tuvākam; tas pie tavām sievām gulēs pašā saulē.
12 For you did it secretly, but I will do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.'"
Jo tu to esi darījis slepeni, bet Es to darīšu visa Israēla priekšā un pašā saulē.
13 David said to Nathan, "I have sinned against Jehovah." Nathan said to David, "Jehovah also has put away your sin. You will not die.
Tad Dāvids sacīja uz Nātanu: es esmu grēkojis pret To Kungu. Un Nātans sacīja uz Dāvidu: tad nu Tas Kungs arī tavus grēkus ir atņēmis; tev nebūs mirt.
14 However, because by this deed you have shown utter contempt for Jehovah, the child also who is born to you shall surely die."
Tomēr tāpēc ka tu caur šo lietu Tā Kunga ienaidniekiem esi devis tiešām iemeslu zaimot, tad arī tam dēlam, kas tev dzimis, būs mirt.
15 Then Nathan went to his home. And God struck the child that Uriah's wife bore to David, and it was very sick.
Un Nātans gāja savā namā. Un Tas Kungs sita to bērnu, ko Ūrijas sieva Dāvidam bija dzemdējusi, ka tas palika ļoti slims.
16 Then David sought from God on behalf of the child. And David fasted, and went in and lay all night on the ground.
Un Dāvids meklēja Dievu par to bērnu, un Dāvids gavēja un iegāja un gulēja par nakti pie zemes.
17 And the elders of his house approached him to lift him up from the ground, but he was unwilling, and he would not eat food with them.
Tad visi viņa nama vecaji gāja pie viņa un viņu gribēja uzcelt no zemes, bet viņš negribēja un neēda maizes ar tiem.
18 It happened on the seventh day, that the child died. The servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead; for they said, "Look, while the child was yet alive, we spoke to him, and he did not listen to our voice. How will he then harm himself, if we tell him that the child is dead?"
Un septītā dienā tas bērns nomira. Un Dāvida kalpi bijās viņam sacīt, ka tas bērns miris. Jo tie sacīja: redzi, kamēr tas bērns vēl bija dzīvs, tad mēs ar viņu runājām, un viņš negribēja mūsu balsi klausīt, kā tad lai viņam sakām, ka tas bērns miris, lai viņš nepadara ko ļauna?
19 But when David noticed that his servants were whispering together, David perceived that the child was dead; and David said to his servants, "Is the child dead?" They said, "He is dead."
Bet Dāvids redzēja, ka viņa kalpi klusiņām savā starpā runāja, un Dāvids manīja, ka tas bērns miris. Un Dāvids sacīja uz saviem kalpiem: vai tas bērns miris? Un tie sacīja: miris.
20 Then David arose from the ground, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his clothing; and he came into the house of Jehovah, and worshiped. Then he went to his own house, and he asked for bread to eat. And they set bread before him, and he ate.
Tad Dāvids cēlās no zemes un mazgājās un svaidījās un pārmija savas drēbes un gāja Tā Kunga namā un pielūdza. Pēc viņš nāca savā namā un pavēlēja, lai viņam maizi ceļ priekšā, un ēda.
21 Then his servants said to him, "What is this that you have done? You fasted and wept and kept vigil for the child while he was alive; but when the child was dead, you rose up and ate bread."
Tad viņa kalpi uz viņu sacīja: kas tas ir, ko tu dari? Kad tas bērns bija dzīvs, tad tu gavēji un raudāji, un kad nu tas bērns miris, tad tu celies un ēdi maizi?
22 He said, "While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept; for I said, 'Who knows whether Jehovah will not be gracious to me, that the child may live?'
Un viņš sacīja: kamēr tas bērns vēl bija dzīvs, es gavēju un raudāju, jo es domāju, kas zin, vai Tas Kungs par mani neapžēlosies, ka tas bērns paliek dzīvs.
23 But now he is dead, why should I fast? Can I bring him back? I shall go to him, but he will not return to me."
Bet kad tas nu miris, kāpēc man būs gavēt? Vai es to vēl varēšu vest atpakaļ? Es gan iešu pie viņa, bet viņš pie manis atpakaļ negriezīsies.
24 David comforted Bathsheba his wife, and went in to her, and lay with her. She bore a son, and he called his name Solomon. Jehovah loved him;
Un Dāvids iepriecināja Batsebu, savu sievu, un iegāja pie tās un gulēja pie tās. Un tā dzemdēja dēlu un tas nosauca viņa vārdu Salamanu. Un Tas Kungs to mīlēja.
25 and he sent by the hand of Nathan the prophet; and he named him Jedidiah, for Jehovah's sake.
Un viņš deva pavēli caur pravieti Nātanu, un šis nosauca viņa vārdu JedidJa (t.i. Dieva mīlēts) Tā Kunga dēļ.
26 Now Joab fought against Rabbah of the people of Ammon, and took the royal city.
Un Joabs karoja pret Rabu, Amona bērnu pilsētu, un ieņēma to ķēniņa pilsētu.
27 Joab sent messengers to David, and said, "I have fought against Rabbah, and have also taken the water supply of the city.
Tad Joabs sūtīja vēstnešus pie Dāvida un sacīja: es pret Rabu esmu karojis un pilsētas lejas daļu jau ieņēmis.
28 Now therefore gather the rest of the people together, and besiege the city and capture it yourself, or I will capture the city, and it will be named after me."
Tad nu sapulcini tos atlikušos ļaudis un apmeties pret to pilsētu un ieņem to, lai es neieņemu to pilsētu, un slava par to lai nepaliek man.
29 David gathered all the people together, and went to Rabbah, and fought against it, and took it.
Tad Dāvids sapulcināja visus ļaudis un nogāja uz Rabu un karoja pret to un to ieņēma,
30 He took the crown of their king from off his head; and its weight was a talent of gold, and in it were precious stones; and it was set on David's head. He brought out the spoil of the city, a very great amount.
Un ņēma viņu ķēniņa kroni no viņa galvas, tam svars bija viens talents zelta un dārgu akmeņu, un tas Dāvidam tapa likts uz galvu; viņš arī ļoti lielu laupījumu izveda no tās pilsētas.
31 He brought out the people who were in it, and put them to work with saws, and iron picks, and iron axes, and to labor at the brick kiln. And he did the same to all the cities of the people of Ammon. David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
Un tos ļaudis, kas tur bija, viņš izveda un tos lika apakš zāģiem un apakš kuļamiem dzelzs ruļļiem un apakš dzelzs cirvjiem, un tos lika ķieģeļu cepļos. Tā viņš darīja visām Amona bērnu pilsētām. Un Dāvids un visi ļaudis griezās atpakaļ uz Jeruzālemi.
