Pirmā Laiku 19
1 Un notikās pēc tam, ka Nahas, Amona bērnu ķēniņš, nomira, un viņa dēls palika par ķēniņu viņa vietā.
And it came to pass after this, that Nachash the king of the children of 'Ammon died, and his son became king in his stead.
2 Tad Dāvids sacīja: es darīšu žēlastību pie Anona, Nahasa dēla, jo viņa tēvs žēlastību darījis pie manis. Un Dāvids sūtīja vēstnešus, viņu iepriecināt par viņa tēvu. Tad Dāvida kalpi nāca uz Amona bērnu zemi pie Anona, viņu iepriecināt.
And David said, I will show kindness unto Chanun the son of Nachash, because his father showed kindness unto me. And David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. And the servants of David came unto the land of the children of 'Ammon to Chanun, to comfort him.
3 Bet Amona bērnu lielkungi sacīja uz Anonu: vai Dāvids godina tavu tēvu tavās acīs, ka tas sūtījis pie tevis iepriecētājus? Vai viņa kalpi nav tāpēc pie tevis nākuši, ka zemi izklausa un izposta un izlūko?
And the princes of the children of 'Ammon said unto Chanun, Doth David honor thy father in thy eyes, that he hath sent comforters unto thee? are not his servants come unto thee in order to search out, and to overthrow, and to spy out the land?
4 Tad Anons ņēma Dāvida kalpus un tiem nodzina bārdu un viņiem nogrieza vienu drēbju pusi līdz gurniem un tos atlaida.
Chanun thereupon took David's servants, and shaved them, and cut off their garments in the middle as far as the hip-bone, and sent them away.
5 Un tie aizgāja. Un kad nu Dāvidam ziņu deva par tiem vīriem, tad viņš tiem sūtīja pretī, (jo tie vīri bija ļoti apsmieti, ) un ķēniņš tiem lika sacīt: paliekat Jērikū, tiekams jūsu bārda atkal būs ataugusi, tad nāciet atpakaļ.
And some people went and told David concerning these men. And he sent [persons] to meet them: because the men were greatly ashamed; and the king said, Tarry at Jericho until your beard be grown, and then return.
6 Kad nu Amona bērni redzēja, ka bija palikuši smirdoši Dāvida priekšā, tad Anons un Amona bērni sūtīja tūkstoš sudraba talentus, saderēt ratus un jātniekus no Mezopotamijas, no Maēkas un no Cobas.
And when the children of 'Ammon saw that they were become in bad odor with David, Chanun and the children of 'Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire for themselves from Mesopotamia, and from Syria-ma'achah, and from Zobah, chariots and horsemen.
7 Un tie sev saderēja trīsdesmit un divi tūkstoš ratus un to ķēniņu no Maēkas un viņa ļaudis, un tie nāca un apmeta lēģeri pret Medbu. Un Amona bērni arīdzan sapulcējās no savām pilsētām un nāca karā.
And they hired for themselves thirty and two thousand [warriors in] chariots, and the king of Ma'achah and his people: and they came and encamped before Medeba. And the children of 'Ammon gathered themselves together out of their cities, and came to the battle.
8 Kad nu Dāvids to dzirdēja, tad viņš sūtīja Joabu un visu spēku ar tiem vareniem.
And when David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the army [and] the mighty men.
9 Un Amona bērni izgāja un nostājās uz kauju priekš pilsētas vārtiem. Bet tie ķēniņi, kas bija nākuši, turējās savrup laukā.
And the children of 'Ammon came out, and put themselves in battle array at the entrance of the city: and the kings that were come were by themselves in the field.
10 Kad nu Joabs redzēja, ka karš pret viņu taisījās no priekšas un no aizmugures, tad viņš izlasīja kādus no Israēla jauniem vīriem un nostājās Sīriešiem pretī.
When now Joab saw that the front of battle was against him before and behind, he made a selection from all the chosen men of Israel, and arrayed himself against the Syrians.
11 Bet tos citus ļaudis viņš deva Abizajam, savam brālim, rokā, un tie nostājās pret Amona bērniem.
And the rest of the people he delivered into the hand of Abshai his brother, and they arrayed themselves against the children of 'Ammon.
12 Un viņš sacīja: ja Sīrieši būs stiprāki nekā es, tad nāc tu man palīgā, bet ja Amona bērni būs stiprāki nekā tu, tad es nākušu tev palīgā.
And he said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then shalt thou bring me help; but if the children of 'Ammon be too strong for thee, then will I help thee.
13 Turies droši un lai stipri cīnāmies priekš saviem ļaudīm un priekš sava Dieva pilsētām, un Tas Kungs lai dara, kā tam patīk.
Be strong, and let us strengthen ourselves in behalf of our people, and in behalf of the cities of our God, and may the Lord do that which seemeth good in his eyes.
14 Un Joabs nāca tuvāki ar saviem ļaudīm, kas pie viņa bija, kauties ar Sīriešiem, bet tie bēga viņa priekšā.
And Joab drew nigh and the people that were with him in front of the Syrians unto the battle, and they fled from before him.
15 Un kad Amona bērni redzēja, kā Sīrieši bēga, tad tie arīdzan bēga priekš Abizajus, viņa brāļa, un tie nāca pilsētā, un Joabs nāca uz Jeruzālemi.
And when the children of 'Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, then did they also fly before Abshai his brother, and entered into the city. And Joab went back to Jerusalem.
16 Kad nu Sīrieši redzēja, ka Israēla priekšā bija sakauti, tad tie sūtīja vēstnešus un lika nākt tiem Sīriešiem, kas viņpus upes dzīvoja, un Šofahs, HadadEzera kara lielskungs, gāja viņu priekšā.
And when the Syrians saw that they were smitten before Israel, they sent messengers, and brought out the Syrians that were beyond the river: and Shophach the captain of the army of Hadar'ezer went before them.
17 Kad to Dāvidam teica, tad viņš sapulcēja visu Israēli un pārgāja pār Jardāni, un nāca pie tiem un nostājās tiem pretī. Un Dāvids nostājās Sīriešiem pretī uz kauju, un tie ar viņu kāvās.
And when it was told to David, he gathered all Israel together, and passed over the Jordan, and came up with them, and arrayed himself against them. So when David had arrayed himself against the Syrians [for] battle, they fought with him.
18 Bet Sīrieši bēga Israēla priekšā, un Dāvids nokāva no Sīriešiem septiņ tūkstoš ratus un četrdesmit tūkstoš kājniekus; viņš nokāva arī Šofahu, to kara lielkungu.
And the Syrians fled from before Israel: and David slew of the Syrians [the men of] seven thousand chariots, and forty thousand men on foot, and Shophach the captain of the army he put to death.
19 Kad nu HadadEzera kalpi redzēja, ka Israēla priekšā bija sakauti, tad tie derēja mieru ar Dāvidu un viņam kalpoja. Un Sīrieši negribēja vairs Amona bērniem palīdzēt.
And when the vassals of Hadar'ezer saw that they were smitten before Israel, they made peace with David, and served him: and the Syrians would not help the children of 'Ammon any more.
