2 Samuel 20
1 There happened to be there a wicked fellow, whose name was Sheba the son of Bichri, a Benjamite; and he blew the shofar, and said, “We have no portion in David, neither have we inheritance in the son of Jesse. Every man to his tents, Israel!”
Un tur gadījās netikls vīrs, Šebus vārdā, Bikra dēls, Benjaminietis; tas pūta trumetes un sacīja: mums daļas nav pie Dāvida, nedz mantības pie Isajus dēla, - ikviens no Israēla ejat savā dzīvoklī!
2 So all the men of Israel went up from following David, and followed Sheba the son of Bichri; but the men of Judah joined with their king, from the Jordan even to Jerusalem.
Tad visi Israēla vīri gāja nost no Dāvida, Šebum, Bikra dēlam, pakaļ. Bet Jūda vīri turējās pie sava ķēniņa, no Jardānes līdz Jeruzālemei.
3 David came to his house at Jerusalem; and the king took the ten women his concubines, whom he had left to keep the house, and put them in custody and provided them with sustenance, but didn’t go in to them. So they were shut up to the day of their death, living in widowhood.
Kad nu Dāvids uz Jeruzālemi pārnāca savā namā, tad ķēniņš ņēma tās desmit sievas, savas liekas sievas ko viņš bija atstājis, to namu sargāt, un tās ielika kādā sargu namā un tās apgādāja, bet vairs pie tām negāja. Un tās bija ieslēgtas līdz savai miršanas dienai un dzīvoja par atraitnēm.
4 Then the king said to Amasa, “Call me the men of Judah together within three days, and be here present.”
Un ķēniņš sacīja uz Amasu: sasauc man Jūda vīrus uz trešo dienu, un stāvi tu arīdzan te.
5 So Amasa went to call the men of Judah together, but he stayed longer than the set time which had been appointed to him.
Tad Amasus gāja, Jūdu sasaukt, bet viņš kavējās pāri par nolikto laiku, ko tas viņam bija nolicis.
6 David said to Abishai, “Now Sheba the son of Bichri will do us more harm than Absalom did. Take your lord’s servants and pursue after him, lest he get himself fortified cities, and escape out of our sight.”
Tad Dāvids sacīja uz Abizaju: nu mums Šebus, Bikra dēls, darīs vairāk ļaunuma nekā Absaloms. Ņem sava kunga kalpus un dzenies viņam pakaļ, ka viņš netiek stiprās pilsētās un neizzūd no mūsu acīm.
7 Joab’s men went out after him with the Cherethites, the Pelethites, and all the mighty men; and they went out of Jerusalem to pursue Sheba the son of Bichri.
Tad Joaba vīri viņam izgāja pakaļ, ir tie Krieti un Plieti un visi varenie. Un tie izgāja no Jeruzālemes, Šebum, Bikra dēlam, dzīties pakaļ.
8 When they were at the great stone which is in Gibeon, Amasa came to meet them. Joab was clothed in his apparel of war that he had put on, and on it was a sash with a sword fastened on his waist in its sheath; and as he went along it fell out.
Kad tie nu pie tā lielā akmens nāca, kas ir Gibeonā, tad Amasus tos sastapa, bet Joabs bija apjozies pār savām drēbēm, kas viņam bija mugurā, un pār tām bija josta, kur zobens bija piesiets uz viņa gurniem savās makstīs, šis izslīdēja un tas (zobens) nokrita zemē.
9 Joab said to Amasa, “Is it well with you, my brother?” Joab took Amasa by the beard with his right hand to kiss him.
Un Joabs sacīja uz Amasu: vai tev labi klājās, mans brāli? Un Joabs satvēra ar labo roku Amasus bārdu, viņu skūpstīt.
10 But Amasa took no heed to the sword that was in Joab’s hand. So he struck him with it in the body and shed out his bowels to the ground, and didn’t strike him again; and he died. Joab and Abishai his brother pursued Sheba the son of Bichri.
Un Amasus nesargājās no tā zobena, kas bija Joaba rokā, un tas viņam to iedūra vēderā, ka viņa iekšas izgāzās zemē un viņam otras reizes vairs nevajadzēja, un viņš nomira. Bet Joabs un viņa brālis Abizajus dzinās pakaļ Šebum, Bikra dēlam.
11 One of Joab’s young men stood by him, and said, “He who favours Joab, and he who is for David, let him follow Joab!”
Un viens vīrs no Joaba puišiem palika pie viņa stāvot un sacīja: kam labs prāts ir pie Joaba, un kas Dāvidam (pieķeras), tas lai iet Joabam pakaļ.
12 Amasa lay wallowing in his blood in the middle of the highway. When the man saw that all the people stood still, he carried Amasa out of the highway into the field, and cast a garment over him when he saw that everyone who came by him stood still.
Bet Amasus vārtījās asinīs ceļa vidū. Kad nu tas vīrs redzēja, ka visi ļaudis tur apstājās, tad viņš Amasu no ceļa novēla uz tīrumu un uzmeta viņam drēbes, tāpēc ka redzēja, ka ikviens, kas pie viņa pienāca, apstājās.
13 When he was removed out of the highway, all the people went on after Joab to pursue Sheba the son of Bichri.
Kad viņš nu no ceļa bija novelts, tad visi ļaudis gāja garām, Joabam pakaļ, Šebum, Bikra dēlam pakaļ dzīties.
14 He went through all the tribes of Israel to Abel, to Beth Maacah, and all the Berites. They were gathered together, and went also after him.
Un viņš gāja pa visām Israēla ciltīm uz Abelu un BetMaāku, un pa visu Berim-tiesu, un tie sapulcējās un gāja viņam pakaļ.
15 They came and besieged him in Abel of Beth Maacah, and they cast up a mound against the city, and it stood against the rampart; and all the people who were with Joab battered the wall to throw it down.
Un tie nāca un apmetās pret viņu Abel BetMaākā un uzmeta valni pret to pilsētu un tas stāvēja pie mūra, un visi ļaudis, kas pie Joaba bija, meklēja to mūri postīt un apgāzt.
16 Then a wise woman cried out of the city, “Hear, hear! Please say to Joab, ‘Come near here, that I may speak with you.’”
Tad viena gudra sieva no pilsētas sauca: klausiet, klausiet, sakāt jel Joabam: nāc šurp, es ar tevi gribu runāt.
17 He came near to her; and the woman said, “Are you Joab?” He answered, “I am.” Then she said to him, “Hear the words of your servant.” He answered, “I’m listening.”
Kad viņš nu pie tās atnāca, tad tā sieva sacīja: vai tu esi Joabs? Un viņš sacīja: es tas esmu. Un tā uz viņu sacīja: klausies savas kalpones vārdus. Un viņš sacīja: es klausos.
18 Then she spoke, saying, “They used to say in old times, ‘They shall surely ask counsel at Abel,’ and so they settled a matter.
Tad viņa teica un sacīja: vecos laikos tā mēdza runāt: kas vaicā, lai vaicā Abelā, un tā tika galā.
19 I am amongst those who are peaceable and faithful in Israel. You seek to destroy a city and a mother in Israel. Why will you swallow up the LORD’s inheritance?”
Es esmu no tiem mierīgiem un uzticīgiem iekš Israēla, un tu meklē tādu pilsētu izdeldēt, kas ir māte iekš Israēla. Kāpēc tu gribi aprīt Tā Kunga mantību?
20 Joab answered, “Far be it, far be it from me, that I should swallow up or destroy.
Tad Joabs atbildēja un sacīja: lai Dievs pasargā, lai Dievs pasargā, ka es aprītu un ka es izdeldētu; tas tā nav.
21 The matter is not so. But a man of the hill country of Ephraim, Sheba the son of Bichri by name, has lifted up his hand against the king, even against David. Just deliver him, and I will depart from the city.” The woman said to Joab, “Behold, his head will be thrown to you over the wall.”
Bet viens vīrs no Efraīma kalniem, Šebus vārdā, Bikra dēls, tas savu roku pacēlis pret ķēniņu, pret Dāvidu; dodiet man to vien, tad es aiziešu projām no pilsētas. Tad tā sieva sacīja uz Joabu: redzi, viņa galva pie tevis taps nomesta pāri pār mūri.
22 Then the woman went to all the people in her wisdom. They cut off the head of Sheba the son of Bichri, and threw it out to Joab. He blew the shofar, and they were dispersed from the city, every man to his tent. Then Joab returned to Jerusalem to the king.
Un tā sieva nāca pie visiem ļaudīm ar savu gudrību, un tie Šebum, Bikra dēlam, nocirta galvu un to izmeta Joabam ārā. Tad viņš pūta trumetes, un tie izklīda no tās pilsētas projām, ikviens savā dzīvoklī, un Joabs griezās atpakaļ uz Jeruzālemi pie ķēniņa.
23 Now Joab was over all the army of Israel, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and over the Pelethites,
Un Joabs bija pār visu Israēla karaspēku, un Benajus, Jojada dēls, pār tiem Krietiem un Plietiem,
24 Adoram was over the men subject to forced labour, Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was the recorder,
Un Adorams bija pār tiem darbiniekiem un Jehošafats, Aķiluda dēls, bija kanclers,
25 Sheva was scribe, Zadok and Abiathar were priests,
Un Zejus bija rakstu vedējs, un Cadoks un Abjatars bija priesteri,
26 and Ira the Jairite was chief minister to David.
Un arī Irus, Jaīra dēls, bija pie Dāvida lielskungs.
