< Pirmā Samuela 17 >

1 Un Fīlisti sapulcināja savu spēku uz karu un sapulcējās iekš Sohus, vienā Jūda cilts pilsētā un apmeta savu lēģeri starp Sohu un Azeku Eses-Damimā.
Now the Philistines, gathering their troops for battle, assembled at Socoh of Judah. And they made camp between Socoh and Azekah, within the borders of Dammim.
2 Bet Sauls un Israēla vīri sapulcējās un apmetās ozolu ielejā un taisījās karot pret Fīlistiem.
But Saul and the sons of Israel, having gathered together, went to the Valley of Terebinth. And they positioned the army so as to fight against the Philistines.
3 Un Fīlisti stāvēja uz kalna viņā pusē, un Israēla ļaudis stāvēja uz kalna šai pusē, un ieleja bija viņu starpā.
And the Philistines were standing on a mountain on the one side, and Israel was standing on a mountain on the other side. And there was a valley between them.
4 Tad viens stiprinieks izgāja no Fīlistu lēģera, ar vārdu Goliats no Gatas; viņa garums bija sešas olektis un viens sprīdis.
And there went out from the camp of the Philistines, a man of illegitimate birth, named Goliath of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a palm.
5 Un tam bija vara cepure uz galvas un tam bija zvīņainas krūšu-bruņas un, tas krūšu bruņu svars bija pieci tūkstoši sēķeļu vara,
And he had a helmet of brass upon his head, and he was clothed with a breastplate of scales. Moreover, the weight of his breastplate was five thousand shekels of brass.
6 Un lielu bruņas no vara ap lieliem, un vara šķēps uz pleciem.
And he had plates of brass on his lower legs, and a small shield of brass was covering his shoulders.
7 Un viņa šķēpa kāts bija kā riestava un viņa šķēpa asmens bija no sešsimt sēķeliem dzelzs, un tas bruņu nesējs gāja viņa priekšā.
Now the shaft of his spear was like the beam used by a weaver. And the iron of his spear held six hundred shekels of iron. And his armor bearer went before him.
8 Šis nu stāvēja un sauca uz Israēla pulkiem un uz tiem sacīja: kāpēc jūs gribat iziet un stāties uz karu? Vai es neesmu Fīlists un jūs Saula kalpi? Izmeklējiet no sevis vienu, kas pie manis nāk lejā.
And standing still, he cried out to the battle lines of Israel, and he said to them: “Why have you arrived, prepared for battle? Am I not a Philistine, and are you not the servants of Saul? Choose one man from among you, and let him descend to do battle alone.
9 Ja tas ar mani varēs kauties un mani nokaus, tad mēs jums gribam būt par kalpiem, bet ja es viņu pārvaru un viņu kauju, tad jūs būsiet mums par kalpiem un mums kalposiet.
If he is able to fight with me and to strike me down, we will be your servants. But if I will prevail over him, and strike him down, you will be the servants, and you will serve us.”
10 Un tas Fīlists sacīja: es šodien Israēla pulkus esmu lamājis; dodiet man vienu vīru, ka mēs viens ar otru cīkstamies.
And the Philistine was saying: “I have reproached the troops of Israel today. Present a man to me, and let him undertake a fight against me alone.”
11 Kad nu Sauls un viss Israēls šos Fīlista vārdus dzirdēja, tad tie iztrūcinājās un bijās ļoti. -
And Saul and all the Israelites, hearing these words of the Philistine in this manner, were stupefied and exceedingly afraid.
12 Dāvids nu bija dēls tam Efratiešam no Jūda Bētlemes, ar vārdu Isajus; tam bija astoņi dēli, un Saula laikā tas jau bija vecs vīrs, jau labi gados.
Now David was the son of an Ephrathite man, the one mentioned above, from Bethlehem of Judah, whose name was Jesse. He had eight sons, and during the days of Saul, he was an elderly man, and of great age among men.
13 Un Isajus trīs vecākie dēli bija karā gājuši Saulam līdz, un viņa triju dēlu vārdi, kas karā gāja, bija: Elijabs, tas pirmdzimtais, un viņa otrais, Abinadabs, un tas trešais Šamus.
Now his three eldest sons followed Saul into battle. And the names of his three sons, who went to the battle, were Eliab, the firstborn, and the second, Abinadab, and the third Shammah.
14 Un Dāvids bija tas jaunākais; un tie trīs vecākie Saulam bija gājuši līdz.
But David was the youngest. Therefore, when the three eldest had followed Saul,
15 Bet Dāvids gāja un nāca no Saula, sava tēva avis ganīt Bētlemē.
David went away from Saul, and he returned, so that he might pasture the flock of his father at Bethlehem.
16 Bet tas Fīlists izgāja rītos un vakaros un rādījās tur četrdesmit dienas.
Truly, the Philistine advanced morning and evening, and he stood forth, for forty days.
17 Tad Isajus sacīja uz savu dēlu Dāvidu: ņem jel priekš saviem brāļiem vienu ēfu no šīm ceptām vārpām un šās desmit maizes un steidzies lēģerī pie saviem brāļiem.
Now Jesse said to his son David: “Take, for your brothers, an ephah of cooked grain, and these ten loaves, and hurry to the camp, to your brothers.
18 Bet šos desmit sierus nones tam virsniekam par tūkstoš, un apmeklē savus brāļus, kā tiem klājās, un ņem vienu zīmi no tiem.
And you shall carry these ten little cheeses to the tribune. And visit your brothers, to see if they are doing well. And learn with whom they have been stationed.”
19 Bet Sauls un šie un visi Israēla vīri bija ozolu ielejā, ar Fīlistiem karodami.
But they were in the valley of Terebinth, with Saul and all the sons of Israel, fighting against the Philistines.
20 Tad Dāvids cēlās agri un atstāja avis pie gana un ņēma (tās lietas) un nogāja, kā Isajus viņam bija pavēlējis, un nāca pie tiem savestiem lēģera ratiem, un tas karaspēks izgāja uz kaušanos un sacēla kara troksni.
And so, David rose up in the morning, and he commended the flock to the caretaker. And he went away burdened, just as Jesse had instructed him. And he went to the place of the battle line, and to the army, which, in going out to fight, was shouting in the conflict.
21 Un Israēlieši un Fīlisti nostājās uz kaušanos, pulks pret pulku.
For Israel had positioned their troops, but the Philistines also had prepared themselves against them.
22 Tad Dāvids nolika tos traukus pie tā rīku sarga un skrēja pie tiem karapulkiem un nāca un apsveicināja savus brāļus.
Then, leaving the items that he had brought under the hand of the keeper of baggage, David ran to the place of the conflict. And he was asking if all was going well with his brothers.
23 Kad nu viņš vēl ar tiem runāja, redzi, tad nāca tas stiprinieks, vārdā Goliats, tas Fīlists no Gatas, no Fīlistu karapulkiem un runāja tos pašus vārdus, un Dāvids to dzirdēja.
And while he was still speaking with them, there appeared the man of spurious descent, whose name was Goliath, the Philistine of Gath, ascending from the camp of the Philistines. And he was speaking in these same words, which David heard.
24 Bet visi Israēla vīri, kad tie šo vīru redzēja, tad tie priekš viņa bēga un bijās ļoti.
Then all the Israelites, when they had seen the man, fled from his face, fearing him greatly.
25 Un Israēla vīri sacīja: vai jūs to vīru esat redzējuši, kas te nāk? Viņš nāk Israēli lamāt. Un notiks, to vīru, kas šo kaus, ķēniņš darīs ļoti bagātu un tam dos savu meitu par sievu un atlaidīs viņa tēva namam nodošanas iekš Israēla.
And someone of Israel said: “Have you seen this man, who has risen up. For he ascended in order to reproach Israel. Therefore, the man who will strike him down, the king will enrich with great wealth, and will give to him his daughter, and will cause his father’s house to be free of tribute in Israel.”
26 Tad Dāvids runāja uz tiem vīriem, kas pie viņa stāvēja, un sacīja: kas tam vīram būs, kas šo Fīlistu kaus un novērsīs kaunu no Israēla? Jo kas viņš tāds, tas Fīlists, tas neapgraizītais, ka tas tā dzīvā Dieva karapulkus lamā?
And David spoke to the men who were standing with him, saying: “What will be given to the man who will have struck down this Philistine, and who will have taken away the disgrace from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should reproach the soldiers of the living God?”
27 Tad tie ļaudis viņam teica tos pašus vārdus un sacīja: tā un tā tam vīram darīs, kas viņu nokaus.
Then the people repeated to him the same words, saying, “These things shall be given to the man who will have struck him down.”
28 Bet Elijabs, viņa vecākais brālis, viņu dzirdēja ar tiem vīriem runājam, un Elijabs apskaitās par Dāvidu un sacīja: kāpēc tad tu esi atnācis? Un pie kā tu to mazo avju pulciņu tuksnesī esi pametis? Es gan zinu tavu lielību un tavu sirds blēdību, jo tu esi nācis kaušanos redzēt.
Now when Eliab, his eldest brother, had heard this, as he was speaking with the others, he became angry against David, and he said: “Why did you come here? And why did you leave behind those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your pride and the wickedness of your heart, that you have come down so that you might see the battle.”
29 Tad Dāvids sacīja: ko tad nu es esmu darījis? Vai man nav brīvi runāt?
And David said: “What have I done? Is there any word against me?”
30 Un viņš griezās no tā pie cita un sacīja tos pašus vārdus. Un tie ļaudis tam atbildēja tā kā papriekš.
And he turned away from him a little, toward another. And he asked the same question. And the people responded to him as before.
31 Kad nu šie vārdi tapa dzirdēti, ko Dāvids runāja, un Saulam tapa sacīti, tad viņš to lika atvest.
Now the words that David had spoken were heard and reported in the sight of Saul.
32 Un Dāvids sacīja uz Saulu: lai nevienam sirds nezūd viņa pēc. Tavs kalps noies un kausies ar šo Fīlistu.
When he had been led to Saul, he said to him: “Let no one lose heart over him. I, your servant, shall go and fight against the Philistine.”
33 Bet Sauls sacīja uz Dāvidu: tu nevari noiet pret šo Fīlistu, ar viņu kauties. Jo tu esi zēns un viņš ir karavīrs no savas jaunības.
And Saul said to David: “You are not able to withstand this Philistine, nor to fight against him. For you are a boy, but he has been a warrior from his boyhood.”
34 Tad Dāvids sacīja uz Saulu: tavs kalps ganīja sava tēva avis, tad nāca lauva un lācis un nonesa avi no ganāmā pulka.
And David said to Saul: “Your servant was pasturing the flock of his father. And there approached a lion or a bear, and it took a ram from the midst of the flock.
35 Un es tam dzinos pakaļ un to kāvu un izpestīju (to avi) no viņa rīkles. Kad viņš nu pret mani cēlās, tad es viņu grābu pie bārdas un to situ un nokāvu.
And I pursued after them, and I struck them, and I rescued from their mouth. And they rose up against me. And I caught them by the throat, and I strangled and killed them.
36 Tavs kalps ir gan lauvu, gan lāci nokāvis; tāpat būs šis neapgraizītais Fīlists, tā kā viens no tiem; jo viņš tā dzīvā Dieva karapulkus ir lamājis.
For I, your servant, have killed both lion and bear. And so this uncircumcised Philistine, too, will be like one of them. Now I will go and take away the reproach of the people. For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, who has dared to curse the army of the living God?”
37 Un Dāvids sacīja: Tas Kungs, kas mani pestījis no lauvas un no lāča, mani arī atpestīs no šā Fīlista rokas.
And David said, “The Lord who rescued me from the hand of the lion, and from the hand of the bear, he himself will free me from the hand of this Philistine.” Then Saul said to David, “Go, and may the Lord be with you.”
38 Tad Sauls sacīja uz Dāvidu: ej tad, lai Tas Kungs tev palīdz. Un Sauls apģērba Dāvidu ar savām paša drēbēm un lika vara cepuri uz viņa galvu un to apģērba ar krūšu bruņām.
And Saul clothed David with his garments. And he placed a helmet of brass upon his head, and he clothed him with a breastplate.
39 Un Dāvids apjoza viņa zobenu pār savām drēbēm un sāka staigāt, jo viņš vēl to nebija ieradis. Un Dāvids sacīja uz Saulu: tā es nevaru iet, jo es to vēl neesmu ieradis. Un Dāvids to nolika no sevis nost.
Then David, having girded his sword over his armor, began to see if he could walk in the armor. But he was not accustomed to it. And David said to Saul: “I cannot move about in this way. For I am not used to it.” And he put them aside.
40 Un viņš ņēma savu zizli rokā un izlasījās piecus gludus oļus no upes un tās lika tai gana tarbā, kas viņam bija, proti tai kulē, un viņa linga bija viņa rokā. Tā tas gāja tam Fīlistam pretī.
And he took up his staff, which he held always in his hands. And he chose for himself five very smooth stones from the torrent. And he put them into the shepherd’s bag that he had with him. And he took up a sling in his hand. And he went out against the Philistine.
41 Un tas Fīlists nāca Dāvidam arvien tuvāk, un viņa bruņu nesējs viņa priekšā.
And the Philistine, advancing, went and drew near against David. And his armor bearer was before him.
42 Kad nu tas Fīlists skatījās un Dāvidu redzēja, tad viņš to izsmēja, jo tas bija jauneklis sarkaniem vaigiem un skaistu ģīmi.
And when the Philistine had seen and considered David, he despised him. For he was a youth, ruddy and of handsome appearance.
43 Un tas Fīlists sacīja uz Dāvidu: vai es esmu suns, ka tu ar koku pie manis nāci? Un tas Fīlists lādēja Dāvidu pie saviem dieviem.
And the Philistine said to David, “Am I a dog, that you approach against me with a staff?” And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.
44 Un tas Fīlists sacīja uz Dāvidu: nāc šurp pie manis, es tavu miesu došu putniem apakš debess un zvēriem laukā.
And he said to David, “Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth.”
45 Bet Dāvids sacīja uz to Fīlistu: tu nāci pie manis ar zobenu un šķēpu un priekšturamām bruņām, bet es nāku pie tevis Tā Kunga Cebaot vārdā, kas ir Israēla karapulku Dievs, ko tu esi zaimojis.
But David said to the Philistine: “You approach me with sword, and spear, and shield. But I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, which you have reproached.
46 Šodien Tas Kungs tevi dos manā rokā, ka es tevi nokauju un tavu galvu no tevis atņemu un Fīlistu lēģera maitas dodu putniem apakš debess un zvēriem virs zemes, un visa pasaule atzīs, ka Israēlim ir Dievs.
Today, the Lord will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you down. And I will take your head from you. And today, I will give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth, so that all the earth may know that God is with Israel.
47 Un visi šie pulki atzīs, ka Tas Kungs neizglābj ar zobenu un šķēpu: jo tas karš pieder Tam Kungam, Tas jūs dos mūsu rokā.
And this entire assembly will know that the Lord does not save by sword, nor by spear. For this is his war, and he will deliver you into our hands.”
48 Un notikās, kad nu tas Fīlists cēlās un nāca un Dāvidam tuvojās, tad Dāvids steidzās un skrēja uz tiem karapulkiem, tam Fīlistam pretī.
Then, when the Philistine had risen up, and was approaching, and was drawing near against David, David hurried and ran to the fight against the Philistine.
49 Un Dāvids bāza roku tarbā un izņēma vienu oli un meta ar lingu un iesvieda tam Fīlistam pašā pierē, tā ka tas akmens viņa pierē ieskrēja, un tas krita uz savu vaigu pie zemes.
And he put his hand into his bag, and took out one stone. And swinging it around, he cast it with the sling and struck the Philistine on the forehead. And the stone became imbedded in his forehead. And he fell on his face, upon the ground.
50 Tā Dāvids pārvarēja to Fīlistu ar lingu un ar oli, un kāva to Fīlistu un to nokāva, bet Dāvidam zobena nebija rokā.
And David prevailed against the Philistine with a sling and a stone. And he struck and killed the Philistine. But since David held no sword in his hand,
51 Tad Dāvids pieskrēja un piestājās pie tā Fīlista un ņēma viņa zobenu un to izvilka no makstīm un to nokāva un tam ar to nocirta galvu. Kad nu Fīlisti redzēja, ka viņu varenais bija miris, tad tie bēga.
he ran and stood over the Philistine, and he took his sword, and withdrew it from the sheath. And he killed him and cut off his head. Then the Philistines, seeing that their strongest man was dead, fled away.
52 Un Israēla un Jūda vīri cēlās un gavilēja un dzinās Fīlistiem pakaļ, kamēr nāk tai ielejā un līdz pašiem Ekronas vārtiem; un Fīlistu nokautie krita uz Zaārim ceļa un līdz Gatai un līdz Ekronai.
And the men of Israel and Judah, rising up, shouted and pursued after the Philistines, even until they arrived at the valley and as far as the gates of Ekron. And many wounded among the Philistines fell on the way of Shaaraim, and as far as Gath, and as far as Ekron.
53 Un Israēla bērni griezās atpakaļ no Fīlistu dzīšanas un aplaupīja viņu lēģeri.
And the sons of Israel, returning after they had pursued the Philistines, invaded their camp.
54 Un Dāvids ņēma tā Fīlista galvu un to nonesa uz Jeruzālemi, bet viņa bruņas viņš nolika savā teltī.
Then David, taking up the head of the Philistine, brought it to Jerusalem. Yet truly, he placed his armor in his own tent.
55 Bet kad Sauls redzēja Dāvidu izejam pret to Fīlistu, tad tas uz Abneru, to kara lielkungu, sacīja: kam dēls ir šis jauneklis, Abner? Tad Abners sacīja: tik tiešām kā tava dvēsele dzīvo, ķēniņ, to es nezinu.
Now at the time that Saul had seen David going out against the Philistines, he said to Abner, the leader of the military, “From what stock is this youth descended, Abner?” And Abner said, “As your soul lives, O king, I do not know.”
56 Tad ķēniņš sacīja: vaicā jel, kam dēls šis jauneklis ir?
And the king said, “You shall inquire as to whose son this boy may be.”
57 Kad nu Dāvids atpakaļ griezās no tā Fīlista kaušanas, tad Abners viņu ņēma un veda Saula priekšā, un tā Fīlista galva bija viņa rokā.
And when David had returned, after the Philistine had been struck down, Abner took him, and brought him before Saul, having the head of the Philistine in his hand.
58 Un Sauls uz to sacīja: kam dēls tu esi, puisi? Dāvids sacīja: tava kalpa Isajus, tā Bētlemieša, dēls.
And Saul said to him, “Young man, from what ancestry are you?” And David said, “I am the son of your servant Jesse of Bethlehem.”
