< Pirmā Samuela 10 >
1 Tad Samuēls ņēma eļļas trauciņu un to izlēja uz viņa galvu un to skūpstīja un sacīja: vai Tas Kungs tevi nav svaidījis par valdnieku pār Savu mantību?
Then Samuel took a little vial of oil, and poured it on his head. And he kissed him, and said: “Behold, the Lord has anointed you as first ruler over his inheritance. And you shall free his people from the hands of their enemies, who are all around them. And this shall be a sign for you that God has anointed you as ruler:
2 Kad tu šodien no manis aiziesi, tad tu atradīsi divus vīrus pie Rahēles kapa, pie Benjamina robežām Celcā, tie uz tevi sacīs: tās ēzeļu mātes ir atrastas, ko tu esi izgājis meklēt, un redzi, tavs tēvs no tām ēzeļu mātēm ir mitējies un bēdājās jūsu pēc, sacīdams: ko lai es daru sava dēla pēc.
When you will have departed from me this day, you will find two men beside the sepulcher of Rachel, in the parts of Benjamin to the south. And they will say to you: ‘The donkeys have been found, which you had been seeking as you traveled. And your father, forgetting about the donkeys, has been anxious for you, and he says, “What shall I do about my son?”’
3 Un no turienes vēl tālāki gājis, tu nāksi pie Tābor ozola, tur tevi sastaps trīs vīri, kas uz Bēteli iet pie Dieva; viens nesīs trīs kazlēnus un otrs nesīs trīs maizes klaipus un trešais nesīs trauku ar vīnu.
And when you will have departed from there, and will have traveled farther, and will have arrived at the oak of Tabor, in that place three men, who are going up to God at Bethel, will find you. One will be bringing three young goats, and another three loaves of bread, and another will be carrying a bottle of wine.
4 Un tie tevi apsveicinās laipnīgi un tev dos divas maizes; tās ņem no viņu rokām.
And when they will have greeted you, they will give you two loaves. And you shall accept these from their hand.
5 Pēc tam tu nāksi uz to Dieva pakalnu, kur Fīlistu lēģeri stāv, un kad tu pilsētā nāksi, tad tu sastapsi vienu praviešu pulku no kalna nākam, un viņu priekšā stīgas un bungas un stabules un kokles, un tie runās praviešu vārdus.
After these things, you shall arrive at the hill of God, where the garrison of the Philistines is. And when you will have entered the city there, you will meet a company of prophets, descending from the high place, with a psaltery, and a timbrel, and a pipe, and a harp before them, and they will be prophesying.
6 Un Tā Kunga Gars uz tevi nāks, ka tu līdz ar tiem praviešu vārdus runāsi, un tad tu tapsi pārvērsts par citu vīru.
And the Spirit of the Lord will spring up within you. And you shall prophesy with them, and you shall be changed into another man.
7 Kad nu šās zīmes tev notiks, tad dari, kā tava roka māk, jo Dievs ir ar tevi.
Therefore, when these signs will have happened to you, do whatever your hand will find, for the Lord is with you.
8 Bet tev būs noiet manā priekšā uz Gilgalu, un redzi, es nonākšu pie tevis, dedzināmos upurus upurēt un pateicības upurus upurēt. Septiņas dienas tev tur būs gaidīt, tiekams es pie tevis nāku un tev saku, kas tev jādara.
And you shall descend before me into Gilgal, (for I will descend to you), so that you may offer an oblation, and may immolate victims of peace. For seven days, you shall wait, until I come to you, and reveal to you what you should do.”
9 Un notikās, kad viņš savu muguru grieza, no Samuēla aiziet, tad Dievs viņam deva citu sirdi, un visas tās zīmes notika tai pašā dienā.
And so, when he had turned his shoulder, so that he might go away from Samuel, God changed him to another heart. And all these signs occurred on that day.
10 Tiem nu tur pie tā pakalna nākot, redzi, tad praviešu pulks viņu sastapa, un Tā Kunga Gars nāca pār viņu, un viņš runāja praviešu vārdus viņu starpā.
And they arrived at the above-stated hill, and behold, a group of prophets met him. And the Spirit of the Lord leapt up within him, and he prophesied in their midst.
11 Un visi, kas viņu citkārt bija pazinuši, kad tie to redzēja ar tiem praviešiem praviešu vārdus runājam, tad tie ļaudis cits uz citu sacīja: kas tam Ķisa dēlam noticis? Vai Sauls arīdzan starp praviešiem?
Then all those who had known him yesterday and the day before, seeing that he was with the prophets, and that he was prophesying, said to one other: “What is this thing that has happened to the son of Kish? Could Saul also be among the prophets?”
12 Tad viens vīrs no turienes atbildēja un sacīja: kas tad ir šo tēvs? Tādēļ tas sakāms vārds ir cēlies: Vai Sauls arīdzan starp praviešiem?
And one would respond to the other, saying, “And who is their father?” Because of this, it turned into a proverb, “Could Saul also be among the prophets?”
13 Un viņš beidza praviešu vārdus runāt, un nāca uz to kalnu.
Then he ceased to prophesy, and he went to the high place.
14 Tad Saula tēva brālis sacīja uz viņu un uz viņa puisi: kur bijāt gājuši? Viņš sacīja: tās ēzeļu mātes meklēt, un kad mēs redzējām, ka nav, tad mēs nācām pie Samuēla.
And the uncle of Saul said to him, and to his servant, “Where did you go?” And they responded: “To seek the donkeys. But when we did not find them, we went to Samuel.”
15 Tad Saula tēva brālis sacīja: saki man jel, ko jums Samuēls ir teicis?
And his uncle said to him, “Tell me what Samuel said to you.”
16 Un Sauls sacīja uz savu tēva brāli: viņš mums patiesi ir sacījis, tās ēzeļu mātes esam atrastas; bet par to ķēniņa godu, par ko Samuēls bija runājis, viņš tam nekā nesacīja. -
And Saul said to his uncle, “He told us that the donkeys would be found.” But the word about the kingdom, which Samuel had spoken to him, he did not reveal to him.
17 Tad Samuēls tos ļaudis sasauca Tā Kunga priekšā uz Micpu.
And Samuel called the people together, to the Lord at Mizpah.
18 Un viņš sacīja uz Israēla bērniem: tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs: Es Israēli esmu izvedis no ēģiptiešu rokas un no visu ķēniņu rokas, kas jūs spaidīja;
And he said to the sons of Israel: “Thus says the Lord God of Israel: I led Israel away from Egypt, and I rescued you from the hand of the Egyptians, and from the hand of all the kings who were afflicting you.
19 Bet jūs šodien savu Dievu esat atmetuši, kas jūs no visām jūsu bēdām un izbailēm ir atpestījis, un uz Viņu esat sacījuši: “Cel pār mums ķēniņu.” Nu tad, stājaties Tā Kunga priekšā pēc savām ciltīm un pēc saviem tūkstošiem.
But today you have rejected your God, who alone saved you from all your evils and tribulations. And you have said: ‘By no means! Instead, appoint a king over us.’ Now therefore, stand in the sight of the Lord, by your tribes and by your families.”
20 Kad nu Samuēls visām Israēla ciltīm bija licis klātu nākt, tad Benjamina cilts tapa iezīmēta.
And Samuel brought near all the tribes of Israel, and the lot fell upon the tribe of Benjamin.
21 Un kad viņš Benjamina ciltij pēc viņas radiem lika klātu nākt, tad Matra radi tapa iezīmēti, un Sauls, Ķisa dēls, tapa iezīmēts. Un tie to meklēja, bet neatrada.
And he brought near the tribe of Benjamin, with its families, and the lot fell upon the family of Matri. And then it went to Saul, the son of Kish. Therefore, they sought him, but he was not found.
22 Tad tie To Kungu vaicāja: vai vēl kāds še atnācis? Tad Tas Kungs sacīja: redzi, viņš starp tiem traukiem ir paslēpies.
And after these things, they consulted the Lord as to whether he would soon arrive there. And the Lord responded, “Behold, he is hidden at home.”
23 Tad tie steidzās un viņu no turienes atveda, un viņš stājās ļaužu vidū, un viņš bija veselu galvu lielāks nekā visi ļaudis.
And so they ran and brought him there. And he stood in the midst of the people, and he was taller than the entire people, from the shoulders upward.
24 Tad Samuēls sacīja uz visiem ļaudīm: vai jūs redzat, kādu Tas Kungs ir izredzējis? Jo neviens nav tāds, kā viņš, starp visiem ļaudīm. Tad visi ļaudis gavilēja un sacīja: lai dzīvo ķēniņš!
And Samuel said to all the people: “Certainly, you see the one whom the Lord has chosen, that there is not anyone like him among all the people.” And all the people cried out and said, “Long live the king!”
25 Tad Samuēls uz tiem ļaudīm teica to ķēniņa tiesu un to sarakstīja grāmatā un nolika Tā Kunga priekšā. Un Samuēls atlaida visus ļaudis, ikvienu uz viņa mājām.
Then Samuel spoke to the people the law of the kingdom, and he wrote it in a book, and he stored it in the sight of the Lord. And Samuel dismissed all the people, each one to his own house.
26 Un Sauls gāja arīdzan mājās uz Ģibeju, un viņam gāja līdz pulks vīru, kam Dievs sirdi bija kustinājis.
And then Saul went away to his own house at Gibeah. And a portion of the army, whose hearts had been touched by God, went away with him.
27 Bet kādi nelieši sacīja: ko šis mums palīdzēs? Un tie viņu nicināja un viņam nenesa dāvanas. Bet viņš nelikās to dzirdējis.
Yet the sons of Belial said, “How could this one be able to save us?” And they despised him, and they brought him no presents. But he pretended not to hear them.
