1 Samuel 20
1 David ran away from [the] Naioth [section] of Ramah [city]. He went to Jonathan and asked him, “What have I done [to displease your father]? What did I do that was wrong? Why is he trying to kill me?”
Tad Dāvids bēga no Najotas pie Rāmatas, un nāca un sacīja Jonatāna priekšā: ko es esmu darījis, kas ir mans noziegums un kas ir mani grēki tava tēva priekšā, ka viņš manu dzīvību meklē?
2 Jonathan replied, “My father is surely not trying to kill you! He always tells me before he does anything that he is planning. He tells me about important things and unimportant things that he plans to do. (Why would he refuse to tell me [if he were planning to kill me]?/I am sure that he would not refuse to tell me [if he were planning to kill you].) [RHQ] So what you are saying cannot be true.”
Tad tas uz viņu sacīja: lai Dievs pasargā, tu nemirsi! Redzi, mans tēvs nedara ne lielu ne mazu lietu, ko viņš man papriekš nesacītu, kādēļ tad mans tēvs šo lietu priekš manis būtu apslēpis? Tas tā nav.
3 Then David solemnly declared this to Jonathan: “Your father knows very well that you and I are very good friends, so he says to himself, ‘I will not tell Jonathan [what I am going to do]. If I tell Jonathan, he will be upset/distressed, [and then he will tell David].’ But just as certain as Yahweh lives and you live, I am only one step away from being killed.”
Tad Dāvids turklāt vēl zvērēja un sacīja: tavs tēvs labi zina, ka es žēlastību esmu atradis priekš tavām acīm, tāpēc viņš domā, lai Jonatāns no tā nekā nezina, ka tas par to nenoskumstas. Bet patiesi, tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo un tava dvēsele dzīvo, viens solis vien ir starp mani un nāvi.
4 Jonathan said to David, “I will do whatever you tell me to do.”
Un Jonatāns sacīja uz Dāvidu: ko tava dvēsele vēlās, to es tev darīšu.
5 David replied, “Tomorrow we will celebrate the Festival of the New Moon. I always eat with the king at that festival. But tomorrow I will hide in the field, and I will stay there for one night. I will stay there until the evening of the day after tomorrow.
Un Dāvids sacīja uz Jonatānu: redzi, rītu ir jauns mēnesis, un man būtu ar ķēniņu pie galda jāsēž un jāēd, tad nu palaid mani, ka es laukā apslēpjos līdz trešās dienas vakaram.
6 If your father asks why I am not there at the festival, say to him, ‘David requested me to allow him to go to his home in Bethlehem, where his family will offer the sacrifice that they offer [during this festival] every year.’
Ja tavs tēvs pēc manis vaicās, tad saki: Dāvids mani lūgdams lūdzis, ka varētu steigšus noiet uz savu pilsētu Bētlemi, jo tur ir tas gadskārtīgais upuris visiem tiem radiem.
7 If your father says ‘That is okay’, then I know I will be safe. But if he becomes extremely angry, you will know that he is determined to harm me.
Ja nu viņš tā sacīs: tas ir labi, - tad tavam kalpam būs miers. Bet ja viņš par to apskaistās, tad tu vari zināt, ka viņš ļaunu apņēmies.
8 Please be kind to me. Yahweh heard you when you made a solemn agreement with me [that you and I will always be loyal friends]. If I deserve to be punished [MTY], kill me yourself. I do not want [RHQ] you to allow your father to punish [IDM] me.”
Dari tad žēlastību pie sava kalpa, jo tu ar savu kalpu Tā Kunga derību esi derējis. Bet ja kāds noziegums ir pie manis, tad nokauj tu mani, kāpēc tu mani vēl gribētu vest pie sava tēva?
9 Jonathan replied, “I will never do that! But if I find out that my father is determined to harm/kill you, I will certainly warn you.” [RHQ]
Tad Jonatāns sacīja: lai tas ne mūžam tev nenotiek, ja es tiešām atzītu, ka mans tēvs būtu apņēmies tev ļaunu darīt, ka es tev to nesacītu!
10 David asked him, “How will I find out if your father answers you harshly?”
Tad Dāvids sacīja uz Jonatānu: kas man to sacīs, kad tavs tēvs tev bargi atbildēs?
11 Jonathan replied, “Come with me. We will go out into the field.” So they went together out into the field.
Tad Jonatāns sacīja uz Dāvidu: nāc, ejam laukā. Un tie izgāja abi divi uz lauku.
12 There Jonathan said to David, “I promise this while Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship], is listening: At this time the day after tomorrow, I will find out what my father [is thinking about you]. If he is saying good things about you, I will certainly send a message to you to tell that to you [RHQ].
Tad Jonatāns sacīja uz Dāvidu: Kungs, Israēla Dievs, ja es no sava tēva būšu izklausījis ap šo laiku rītu vai parītu, un redzi, kad tas ir labi priekš Dāvida, un es tad pie tevis nesūtu un tev no tā ziņas nedodu,
13 But if he is planning to hurt/kill you, I will enable you to know [IDM] that, and enable you to go away safely. I desire that Yahweh will punish me severely if I do not do that [for you]. I desire/hope that Yahweh will be with you [and help you] like he has helped my father.
Tad lai Tas Kungs Jonatānam šā un tā dara. Bet ja mans tēvs ko ļaunu pret tevi ir apņēmies, tad es tev par to arī ziņu došu, un tevi palaidīšu, ka tu ar mieru vari aiziet. Un lai tad Tas Kungs ir ar tevi, kā Viņš ir bijis ar manu tēvu.
14 But while I am still alive, please be kind to me in the same way that Yahweh is kind to me, and do not kill me [when you become king].
Un kaut tu, kamēr es vēl dzīvoju, kaut tu pie manis parādītu Tā Kunga žēlastību,
15 But [if I die, ] never stop being kind to my family, [even] after Yahweh has gotten rid of all your enemies all over the earth.”
Un kad es mirstu, ne mūžam neatrautu savu žēlastību no mana nama, arī tad ne, kad Tas Kungs Dāvida ienaidniekus visus no zemes izdeldēs.
16 [David agreed]. So Jonathan made a solemn agreement with David. And he said, “I hope/desire that Yahweh will get rid of all your enemies.”
Tā Jonatāns derēja derību ar Dāvida namu. Un Tas Kungs ir piemeklējis Dāvida ienaidniekus.
17 And Jonathan requested David to repeat his solemn promise to be his close friend, because Jonathan loved David as much as he loved himself.
Un Jonatāns Dāvidu vēl reiz apzvērināja viņu mīlēdams, jo tas viņu mīlēja, itin kā savu dvēseli.
18 Then Jonathan said, “Tomorrow we will celebrate the Festival of the New Moon. When you are not sitting at your place when we eat, my father will (miss you/see that you are not there).
Un Jonatāns uz viņu sacīja: rītu ir jauns mēnesis, tad pēc tevis vaicās, jo tava vieta, kur tu sēdi, būs tukša.
19 The day after tomorrow, in the evening, go to the place where you hid before. Wait by the pile of stones.
Bet trešā dienā nonāc drīz un ej uz to vietu, kur tu biji paslēpies darba dienā, un apsēdies pie Azel akmens.
20 I will come out and shoot three arrows as though I were trying to shoot at a target. [The arrows will hit the ground] close to the pile of stones.
Tad es trīs bultas šaušu tam sānis, tā kā mērķī šaudams.
21 Then I will send a boy to bring the arrows back to me. If you hear me say to him, ‘They are closer to me’, then as surely as Yahweh lives, you will know that everything is fine, [and that Saul will not kill you].
Un redzi, es sūtīšu puisi (sacīdams): ej, meklē tās bultas. Ja es uz to puisi sacīšu: redzi, tās bultas ir šaipus tevis, dabū tās, - tad nāc, jo tev ir miers un nav nekas, tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo.
22 But if I tell him, ‘The arrows are farther away’, you will know that you must leave immediately, because Yahweh wants you to run away.
Bet ja es tā uz to puisi sacīšu: redzi, tās bultas ir tavā priekšā viņā pusē, - tad ej, jo Tas Kungs tev ir licis iet.
23 I hope/desire that Yahweh will watch you and me and enable us to never forget what we have promised each other.”
Bet par to lietu, par ko es un tu esam runājuši, redzi, lai Tas Kungs ir starp mani un tevi mūžīgi.
24 So David went and hid in the field. When the Festival of the New Moon started, the king sat down to eat.
Tad Dāvids paslēpās laukā, un kad jauns mēnesis bija, tad ķēniņš apsēdās pie galda ēst.
25 He sat where he usually sat, close to the wall. Jonathan sat across from him, and Abner [the army commander] sat next to Saul. But no one was sitting in the place where David [usually sat].
Kad nu ķēniņš apsēdās savā vietā, to brīdi kā ar vienu pie sienas, tad Jonatāns nāca, un Abners apsēdās Saulam sānis, bet Dāvida vieta palika tukša.
26 On that day, Saul did not say anything about David, because he was thinking, “Something must have happened that caused David to become unacceptable [to worship God].”
Bet Sauls nesacīja tai dienā nekā, jo viņš domāja: tam kas ir noticis, ka tas nav šķīsts, - viņš nebūs šķīsts.
27 But the next day, when David was not sitting at the place where he usually sat, Saul asked Jonathan, “Why has that son of Jesse not been here to eat with us yesterday and today?”
Bet otrā jauna mēneša dienā Dāvida vieta palika atkal tukša. Tad Sauls sacīja uz savu dēlu Jonatānu: kāpēc Isajus dēls pie galda nav nācis nedz vakar, nedz šodien?
28 Jonathan replied, “David earnestly requested me that I permit him to go to Bethlehem.
Tad Jonatāns Saulam atbildēja: Dāvids mani lūgdams lūdzis, ka varētu iet uz Bētlemi,
29 He said, ‘Please allow me to go, because our family is going to offer a sacrifice. My [older] brother insisted that I be there. So please allow me to go to be with my [older] brothers.’ [I allowed David to go], and that is the reason that he is not here eating with you.”
Un sacīja: atlaid mani lūdzams, jo mūsu radiem ir upuris tai pilsētā, un mans brālis man pats to ir pavēlējis; nu tad, ja es žēlastību esmu atradis tavās acīs, tad dod man lūdzams vaļu, savus brāļus apmeklēt. Tādēļ viņš nav nācis pie ķēniņa galda.
30 Saul was (furious/very angry) with Jonathan. He yelled at him, “You stupid bastard [EUP]! I know that you are being loyal to that son of Jesse. By doing that, you will bring shame to yourself and to your mother.
Tad Sauls apskaitās pret Jonatānu un uz to sacīja: tu netiklais stūrgalvi, vai es nezinu, ka tu to Isajus dēlu esi izredzējis sev par kaunu un tavai netiklai mātei par kaunu?
31 As long as Jesse’s son is living, you will never become the king, and you will never rule over a kingdom! So now, summon David, and bring him to me. He must be executed!”
Jo cik ilgi Isajus dēls virs zemes dzīvos, ne tu, nedz tava valstība nepastāvēs. Tad nu nosūti un dabū man viņu šurp, jo viņam jāmirst.
32 Jonathan asked his father, “Why should David be executed? What wrong has he done?”
Tad Jonatāns savam tēvam Saulam atbildēja un uz to sacīja: kāpēc tam būs mirt? Ko viņš ir darījis?
33 Then Saul threw his spear at Jonathan in order to kill him, [but the spear did not hit him]. So Jonathan knew that his father really wanted to kill David.
Tad Sauls meta ar šķēpu pēc viņa, ka to nodurtu. Un Jonatāns nomanīja, ka viņa tēvs pilnīgi bija apņēmies, Dāvidu nokaut.
34 Jonathan was very angry, and he left the room. On that second day of the festival, he refused to eat anything. He was disgusted about what his father had done, and he was worried about David.
Tad Jonatāns cēlās no galda ar dusmām un neēda tai otrā jauna mēneša dienā nekā, jo viņam sirds ēdās par Dāvidu, tāpēc ka viņa tēvs to bija negodā licis.
35 The following morning Jonathan went out to the field to give a message to David, like he had agreed that he would do. He took a young boy with him.
Un rītā Jonatāns izgāja laukā, kur ar Dāvidu bija norunāts, un mazs zēns bija viņam līdz.
36 Jonathan said to the boy, “Run and find the arrows that I shoot.” The boy started running, and Jonathan shot an arrow ahead of the boy.
Un viņš sacīja uz savu puisi: teci, meklē jel tās bultas, ko es šaušu. Tad tas puisis tecēja, un viņš šāva vienu bultu pāri pār to.
37 When the boy ran to the place where the arrow hit the ground, Jonathan called out, “The arrow is further away!” [RHQ]
Kad nu tas puisis uz to vietu nāca, kur Jonatāns to bultu bija aizšāvis, tad Jonatāns tam puisim sauca pakaļ un sacīja: vai tā bulta nav tavā priekšā viņā pusē?
38 Then he shouted to the boy, “Act quickly; do not wait! Do not stop!” The boy picked up the arrow and brought it back to Jonathan.
Atkal Jonatāns tam puisim sauca pakaļ: steidzies čakli, nestāvi! Tad tas puisis Jonatānam lasīja tās bultas un nāca atkal pie sava kunga.
39 But the boy did not understand the meaning of what Jonathan had said; only Jonathan and David knew.
Bet tas puisis nezināja nekā; Jonatāns tikai un Dāvids zināja to lietu.
40 Then Jonathan gave his bow and arrows to the boy and told him, “Go back to the town.”
Un Jonatāns deva tos rīkus savam puisim, un uz to sacīja: ej, nes tos pilsētā.
41 When the boy left, David came out from the south side of the pile of stones behind which he had been hiding. He went to Jonathan and bowed [in front of Jonathan] three times, with his face touching the ground. Then David and Jonathan kissed each other [on the cheek/neck], and they cried together. But David cried more than Jonathan.
Tā tas puisis nogāja, un Dāvids cēlās no dienasvidus puses un metās uz savu vaigu pie zemes un klanījās trīs reiz', un tie skūpstījās un raudāja abi divi, bet Dāvids jo stipri.
42 Jonathan said to David, “May things go well for you as you go. Yahweh has heard what we solemnly promised to always do for each other, and what we said that our descendants must do for each other.” Then David left, and Jonathan went back to the town.
Tad Jonatāns sacīja uz Dāvidu: ej ar mieru! Ko mēs abi iekš Tā Kunga vārda esam zvērējuši sacīdami: Tas Kungs lai ir starp mani un tevi, un starp manu dzimumu un tavu dzimumu, - tas lai tā paliek mūžīgi. Un viņš cēlās un aizgāja, un Jonatāns nāca pilsētā.
