2 Samuel 2
1 After this, David enquired of the LORD, saying, “Shall I go up into any of the cities of Judah?” The LORD said to him, “Go up.” David said, “Where shall I go up?” He said, “To Hebron.”
Pēc tam Dāvids To Kungu vaicāja un sacīja: vai man būs iet uz vienu no Jūda pilsētām? Un Tas Kungs uz to sacīja: ej. Tad Dāvids sacīja: uz kurieni man būs iet? Un Viņš sacīja: uz Hebroni.
2 So David went up there with his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
Tad Dāvids cēlās uz turieni līdz ar savām divām sievām, Aķinoamu, to Jezreēlieti, un Abigaīli, Nābala, tā Karmelieša, sievu.
3 David brought up his men who were with him, every man with his household. They lived in the cities of Hebron.
Un Dāvids arī saviem vīriem, kas pie viņa bija, ikkatram ar savu namu lika iet uz turieni; un tie dzīvoja Hebrones pilsētās.
4 The men of Judah came, and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah. They told David, “The men of Jabesh Gilead were those who buried Saul.”
Un tie Jūda vīri nāca un Dāvidu tur svaidīja Jūda namam par ķēniņu.
5 David sent messengers to the men of Jabesh Gilead, and said to them, “Blessed are you by the LORD, that you have shown this kindness to your lord, even to Saul, and have buried him.
Un Dāvidam stāstīja un sacīja: Jabesas vīri Gileādā Saulu ir aprakuši. Tad Dāvids sūtīja vēstnešus pie tiem Jabesas vīriem Gileādā un tiem lika sacīt: svētīti jūs esat Tam Kungam, ka jūs šo mīlestību esat parādījuši savam kungam Saulam un viņu esat aprakuši.
6 Now may the LORD show loving kindness and truth to you. I also will reward you for this kindness, because you have done this thing.
Tad lai nu Dievs jums atkal parāda mīlestību un uzticību, un es arīdzan jums gribu labu darīt par to, ka jūs tā esat darījuši.
7 Now therefore let your hands be strong, and be valiant; for Saul your lord is dead, and also the house of Judah have anointed me king over them.”
Un nu stiprinājiet savas rokas un esiet droši; jo, kad jūsu kungs Sauls nu ir miris, tad Jūda nams mani svaidījis sev par ķēniņu.
8 Now Abner the son of Ner, captain of Saul’s army, had taken Ishbosheth the son of Saul and brought him over to Mahanaim.
Bet Abners, Nera dēls, Saula kara lielskungs, ņēma Išbošetu, Saula dēlu, un to pārveda uz Mahānaīm,
9 He made him king over Gilead, over the Ashurites, over Jezreel, over Ephraim, over Benjamin, and over all Israel.
Un to iecēla par ķēniņu pār Gileādu un pār tiem Asuriešiem un pār Jezreēli un pār Efraīmu un pār Benjaminu un pār visu Israēli.
10 Ishbosheth, Saul’s son, was forty years old when he began to reign over Israel, and he reigned two years. But the house of Judah followed David.
Četrdesmit gadus Išbošets, Saula dēls, bija vecs, kad viņš palika Israēlim par ķēniņu, un viņš valdīja divus gadus; bet tie no Jūda nama turējās pie Dāvida.
11 The time that David was king in Hebron over the house of Judah was seven years and six months.
Un viss tas laiks, kamēr Dāvids Hebronē bijis ķēniņš pār Jūda namu, ir septiņi gadi un seši mēneši.
12 Abner the son of Ner, and the servants of Ishbosheth the son of Saul, went out from Mahanaim to Gibeon.
Un Abners, Nera dēls, izgāja ar Išbošeta, Saula dēla, kalpiem no Mahānaīm uz Gibeonu.
13 Joab the son of Zeruiah and David’s servants went out, and met them by the pool of Gibeon; and they sat down, the one on the one side of the pool and the other on the other side of the pool.
Un Joabs, Cerujas dēls, izgāja arīdzan ar Dāvida kalpiem, un tie sastapās pie Gibeonas dīķa, un palika viens šaipus dīķa un otrs viņpus dīķa.
14 Abner said to Joab, “Please let the young men arise and compete before us!” Joab said, “Let them arise!”
Un Abners sacīja uz Joabu: lai jel tie puiši ceļas un cīkstas mūsu priekšā. Tad Joabs sacīja: lai ceļas.
15 Then they arose and went over by number: twelve for Benjamin and for Ishbosheth the son of Saul, and twelve of David’s servants.
Tad cēlās un nogāja pēc skaita divpadsmit par Benjaminu un Išbošetu, Saula dēlu, un divpadsmit no Dāvida kalpiem.
16 They each caught his opponent by the head and thrust his sword in his fellow’s side; so they fell down together. Therefore that place in Gibeon was called Helkath Hazzurim.
Un tie sagrāba viens otru pie galvas un iedūra savu zobenu otram sānos, un tie krita visi reizē, un šī vieta tapa nosaukta Elkat-Acurim (asmeņu tīrums), kas ir pie Gibeonas.
17 The battle was very severe that day; and Abner was beaten, and the men of Israel, before David’s servants.
Un tai dienā cēlās grūta kaušanās, un Abners un Israēla vīri tapa sakauti no Dāvida kalpiem.
18 The three sons of Zeruiah were there: Joab, Abishai, and Asahel. Asahel was as light of foot as a wild gazelle.
Un tur bija trīs Cerujas dēli, Joabs un Abizajus un Azaēls. Un Azaēls bija viegls uz kājām, kā stirna laukā.
19 Asahel pursued Abner. He didn’t turn to the right hand or to the left from following Abner.
Un Azaēls dzinās Abneram pakaļ un neatstājās no Abnera ne pa labo ne pa kreiso roku.
20 Then Abner looked behind him and said, “Is that you, Asahel?” He answered, “It is.”
Un Abners skatījās atpakaļ un sacīja: vai tu neesi Azaēls? Un viņš sacīja: es tas esmu.
21 Abner said to him, “Turn away to your right hand or to your left, and grab one of the young men, and take his armour.” But Asahel would not turn away from following him.
Tad Abners uz to sacīja: atkāpies vai pa labo, vai pa kreiso roku, un satver vienu no tiem puišiem un paņem viņa ieročus. Bet Azaēls no viņa negribēja atstāties.
22 Abner said again to Asahel, “Turn away from following me. Why should I strike you to the ground? How then could I look Joab your brother in the face?”
Tad Abners runāja vēl uz Azaēli un sacīja: atstājies no manis, - kāpēc man tevi būs kaut zemē? Kā tad es varēšu savu vaigu pacelt tava brāļa Joaba priekšā?
23 However, he refused to turn away. Therefore Abner with the back end of the spear struck him in the body, so that the spear came out behind him; and he fell down there and died in the same place. As many as came to the place where Asahel fell down and died stood still.
Bet viņš negribēja atstāties. Tad Abners viņam ar šķēpa otru galu iedūra vēderā, ka šķēps pakaļā iznāca ārā, un Azaēls turpat krita un nomira. Un visi, kas uz to vietu nāca, kur Azaēls bija kritis un nomiris, tie tur apstājās.
24 But Joab and Abishai pursued Abner. The sun went down when they had come to the hill of Ammah, that lies before Giah by the way of the wilderness of Gibeon.
Bet Joabs un Abizajus dzinās Abneram pakaļ, un saule jau nogāja, kad tie nāca pie Amas pakalna, kas šaipus Ģias uz Gibeonas tuksneša ceļa.
25 The children of Benjamin gathered themselves together after Abner and became one band, and stood on the top of a hill.
Un Benjamina bērni sapulcējās Abneram pakaļ vienā pulkā un stāvēja kāda kalna galā.
26 Then Abner called to Joab, and said, “Shall the sword devour forever? Don’t you know that it will be bitterness in the latter end? How long will it be then, before you ask the people to return from following their brothers?”
Tad Abners sauca uz Joabu un sacīja: vai tad zobens lai rij mūžam? Vai tu nezini, ka beidzot ceļas rūgtums? Un cik ilgi tu tiem ļaudīm nesacīsi, lai saviem brāļiem vairs nedzenās pakaļ.
27 Joab said, “As God lives, if you had not spoken, surely then in the morning the people would have gone away, and not each followed his brother.”
Tad Joabs sacīja: tik tiešām kā Dievs dzīvo, kad tu nebūtu runājis, tie ļaudis jau no paša rīta būtu novērsti, ikviens no sava brāļa nost.
28 So Joab blew the shofar; and all the people stood still and pursued Israel no more, and they fought no more.
Tad Joabs pūta ar bazūni, un visi ļaudis apstājās un nedzinās vairs Israēlim pakaļ un mitējās kauties.
29 Abner and his men went all that night through the Arabah; and they passed over the Jordan, and went through all Bithron, and came to Mahanaim.
Un Abners un viņa vīri gāja cauru nakti pa to klajumu un cēlās pār Jardāni un gāja caur visu Bitronu un nāca uz Mahānaīm.
30 Joab returned from following Abner; and when he had gathered all the people together, nineteen men of David’s and Asahel were missing.
Un Joabs griezās atpakaļ no Abnera un sapulcināja visus ļaudis. Tad no Dāvida kalpiem trūka deviņpadsmit vīri un Azaēls.
31 But David’s servants had struck Benjamin Abner’s men so that three hundred and sixty men died.
Bet Dāvida kalpi bija kāvuši no Benjamina un Abnera vīriem trīssimt un sešdesmit vīrus; tie bija nomiruši.
32 They took up Asahel and buried him in the tomb of his father, which was in Bethlehem. Joab and his men went all night, and the day broke on them at Hebron.
Un tie pacēla Azaēli un to apraka viņa tēva kapā Bētlemē. Un Joabs gāja ar saviem vīriem cauru nakti, ka gaisma tiem ausa Hebronē.
