Pirmā Samuela 20
1 Tad Dāvids bēga no Najotas pie Rāmatas, un nāca un sacīja Jonatāna priekšā: ko es esmu darījis, kas ir mans noziegums un kas ir mani grēki tava tēva priekšā, ka viņš manu dzīvību meklē?
And David went in flight from Naioth in Ramah and came to Jonathan and said, What have I done? What is my crime and my sin against your father that he is attempting to take my life?
2 Tad tas uz viņu sacīja: lai Dievs pasargā, tu nemirsi! Redzi, mans tēvs nedara ne lielu ne mazu lietu, ko viņš man papriekš nesacītu, kādēļ tad mans tēvs šo lietu priekš manis būtu apslēpis? Tas tā nav.
And he said to him, Far be the thought: you will not be put to death: see, my father does nothing, great or small, without giving me word of it: would he keep this secret from me? It is not so.
3 Tad Dāvids turklāt vēl zvērēja un sacīja: tavs tēvs labi zina, ka es žēlastību esmu atradis priekš tavām acīm, tāpēc viņš domā, lai Jonatāns no tā nekā nezina, ka tas par to nenoskumstas. Bet patiesi, tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo un tava dvēsele dzīvo, viens solis vien ir starp mani un nāvi.
But David took his oath again and said, Your father sees that I am dear to you; so he says to himself, Let Jonathan have no idea of this, for it will be a grief to him; but as the Lord is living, and as your soul is living, there is only a step between me and death.
4 Un Jonatāns sacīja uz Dāvidu: ko tava dvēsele vēlās, to es tev darīšu.
Then Jonathan said to David, Whatever your desire is, I will do it for you.
5 Un Dāvids sacīja uz Jonatānu: redzi, rītu ir jauns mēnesis, un man būtu ar ķēniņu pie galda jāsēž un jāēd, tad nu palaid mani, ka es laukā apslēpjos līdz trešās dienas vakaram.
And David said to Jonathan, Tomorrow is the new moon, and I will not be seated with the king at his table: but let me go to a safe place in the country till the evening.
6 Ja tavs tēvs pēc manis vaicās, tad saki: Dāvids mani lūgdams lūdzis, ka varētu steigšus noiet uz savu pilsētu Bētlemi, jo tur ir tas gadskārtīgais upuris visiem tiem radiem.
And if your father takes note of the fact that I am away, say, David made a request to me for himself that he might go to Beth-lehem, to his town: for it is the time when his family make their offering year by year.
7 Ja nu viņš tā sacīs: tas ir labi, - tad tavam kalpam būs miers. Bet ja viņš par to apskaistās, tad tu vari zināt, ka viņš ļaunu apņēmies.
If he says, It is well, your servant will be at peace: but if he is angry, then it will be clear to you that he has an evil purpose in mind against me.
8 Dari tad žēlastību pie sava kalpa, jo tu ar savu kalpu Tā Kunga derību esi derējis. Bet ja kāds noziegums ir pie manis, tad nokauj tu mani, kāpēc tu mani vēl gribētu vest pie sava tēva?
So, then, be kind to your servant; for you have been united with your servant in an agreement made before the Lord: but if there is any wrongdoing in me, put me to death yourself; why take me to your father?
9 Tad Jonatāns sacīja: lai tas ne mūžam tev nenotiek, ja es tiešām atzītu, ka mans tēvs būtu apņēmies tev ļaunu darīt, ka es tev to nesacītu!
And Jonathan said, Do not have such a thought: for if I saw that my father was designing evil against you, would I not give you word of it?
10 Tad Dāvids sacīja uz Jonatānu: kas man to sacīs, kad tavs tēvs tev bargi atbildēs?
Then David said to Jonathan, Who will give me word if your father gives you a rough answer?
11 Tad Jonatāns sacīja uz Dāvidu: nāc, ejam laukā. Un tie izgāja abi divi uz lauku.
And Jonathan said to David, Come, let us go out into the country. And the two of them went out together into the open country.
12 Tad Jonatāns sacīja uz Dāvidu: Kungs, Israēla Dievs, ja es no sava tēva būšu izklausījis ap šo laiku rītu vai parītu, un redzi, kad tas ir labi priekš Dāvida, un es tad pie tevis nesūtu un tev no tā ziņas nedodu,
And Jonathan said to David, May the Lord, the God of Israel, be witness; when I have had a chance of talking to my father, about this time tomorrow, if his feelings to David are good, will I not send and give you the news?
13 Tad lai Tas Kungs Jonatānam šā un tā dara. Bet ja mans tēvs ko ļaunu pret tevi ir apņēmies, tad es tev par to arī ziņu došu, un tevi palaidīšu, ka tu ar mieru vari aiziet. Un lai tad Tas Kungs ir ar tevi, kā Viņš ir bijis ar manu tēvu.
May the Lord's punishment be on Jonathan, if it is my father's pleasure to do you evil and I do not give you word of it and send you away so that you may go in peace: and may the Lord be with you, as he has been with my father.
14 Un kaut tu, kamēr es vēl dzīvoju, kaut tu pie manis parādītu Tā Kunga žēlastību,
And may you, while I am still living, O may you be kind to me, as the Lord is kind, and keep me from death!
15 Un kad es mirstu, ne mūžam neatrautu savu žēlastību no mana nama, arī tad ne, kad Tas Kungs Dāvida ienaidniekus visus no zemes izdeldēs.
And let not your mercy ever be cut off from my family, even when the Lord has sent destruction on all David's haters, cutting them off from the face of the earth.
16 Tā Jonatāns derēja derību ar Dāvida namu. Un Tas Kungs ir piemeklējis Dāvida ienaidniekus.
And if it comes about that the name of Jonathan is cut off from the family of David, the Lord will make David responsible.
17 Un Jonatāns Dāvidu vēl reiz apzvērināja viņu mīlēdams, jo tas viņu mīlēja, itin kā savu dvēseli.
And Jonathan again took an oath to David, because of his love for him: for David was as dear to him as his very soul.
18 Un Jonatāns uz viņu sacīja: rītu ir jauns mēnesis, tad pēc tevis vaicās, jo tava vieta, kur tu sēdi, būs tukša.
Then Jonathan said to him, Tomorrow is the new moon: and it will be seen that you are not present, for there will be no one in your seat.
19 Bet trešā dienā nonāc drīz un ej uz to vietu, kur tu biji paslēpies darba dienā, un apsēdies pie Azel akmens.
And on the third day it will be specially noted, and you will go to the place where you took cover when the other business was in hand, waiting by the hill over there.
20 Tad es trīs bultas šaušu tam sānis, tā kā mērķī šaudams.
And on the third day I will send arrows from my bow against its side as if at a mark.
21 Un redzi, es sūtīšu puisi (sacīdams): ej, meklē tās bultas. Ja es uz to puisi sacīšu: redzi, tās bultas ir šaipus tevis, dabū tās, - tad nāc, jo tev ir miers un nav nekas, tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo.
And I will send my boy to have a look for the arrow. And if I say to him, See, the arrow is on this side of you; take it up! then you may come; for there is peace for you and no evil, by the living Lord.
22 Bet ja es tā uz to puisi sacīšu: redzi, tās bultas ir tavā priekšā viņā pusē, - tad ej, jo Tas Kungs tev ir licis iet.
But if I say to the boy, See, the arrow has gone past you: then go on your way, for the Lord has sent you away.
23 Bet par to lietu, par ko es un tu esam runājuši, redzi, lai Tas Kungs ir starp mani un tevi mūžīgi.
As for what you and I were talking of, the Lord is between you and me for ever.
24 Tad Dāvids paslēpās laukā, un kad jauns mēnesis bija, tad ķēniņš apsēdās pie galda ēst.
So David went to a secret place in the country: and when the new moon came, the king took his place at the feast.
25 Kad nu ķēniņš apsēdās savā vietā, to brīdi kā ar vienu pie sienas, tad Jonatāns nāca, un Abners apsēdās Saulam sānis, bet Dāvida vieta palika tukša.
And the king took his seat, as at other times, by the wall: and Jonathan was in front, and Abner was seated by Saul's side, but there was no one in David's seat.
26 Bet Sauls nesacīja tai dienā nekā, jo viņš domāja: tam kas ir noticis, ka tas nav šķīsts, - viņš nebūs šķīsts.
But Saul said nothing that day, for his thought was, Something has taken place making him unclean; it is clear that he is not clean.
27 Bet otrā jauna mēneša dienā Dāvida vieta palika atkal tukša. Tad Sauls sacīja uz savu dēlu Jonatānu: kāpēc Isajus dēls pie galda nav nācis nedz vakar, nedz šodien?
And on the day after the new moon, that is, the second day, there was still no one in David's seat: and Saul said to his son Jonathan, Why has the son of Jesse not come to the feast yesterday or today?
28 Tad Jonatāns Saulam atbildēja: Dāvids mani lūgdams lūdzis, ka varētu iet uz Bētlemi,
And answering Saul, Jonathan said, He made a request to me that he might go to Beth-lehem,
29 Un sacīja: atlaid mani lūdzams, jo mūsu radiem ir upuris tai pilsētā, un mans brālis man pats to ir pavēlējis; nu tad, ja es žēlastību esmu atradis tavās acīs, tad dod man lūdzams vaļu, savus brāļus apmeklēt. Tādēļ viņš nav nācis pie ķēniņa galda.
Saying, Our family is making an offering in the town, and my brothers have given me orders to be there: so now, if I have grace in your eyes, let me go away and see my brothers. This is why he has not come to the king's table.
30 Tad Sauls apskaitās pret Jonatānu un uz to sacīja: tu netiklais stūrgalvi, vai es nezinu, ka tu to Isajus dēlu esi izredzējis sev par kaunu un tavai netiklai mātei par kaunu?
Then Saul was moved to wrath against Jonathan, and he said to him, You son of an evil and uncontrolled woman, have I not seen how you have given your love to the son of Jesse, to your shame and the shame of your mother?
31 Jo cik ilgi Isajus dēls virs zemes dzīvos, ne tu, nedz tava valstība nepastāvēs. Tad nu nosūti un dabū man viņu šurp, jo viņam jāmirst.
For while the son of Jesse is living on the earth, your position is unsafe and your kingdom is in danger. So make him come here to me, for it is certainly right for him to be put to death.
32 Tad Jonatāns savam tēvam Saulam atbildēja un uz to sacīja: kāpēc tam būs mirt? Ko viņš ir darījis?
And Jonathan, answering his father Saul, said to him, Why is he to be put to death? What has he done?
33 Tad Sauls meta ar šķēpu pēc viņa, ka to nodurtu. Un Jonatāns nomanīja, ka viņa tēvs pilnīgi bija apņēmies, Dāvidu nokaut.
And Saul, pointing his spear at him, made an attempt to give him a wound: from which it was clear to Jonathan that his father's purpose was to put David to death.
34 Tad Jonatāns cēlās no galda ar dusmām un neēda tai otrā jauna mēneša dienā nekā, jo viņam sirds ēdās par Dāvidu, tāpēc ka viņa tēvs to bija negodā licis.
So Jonathan got up from the table, burning with wrath, and took no part in the feast the second day of the month, being full of grief for David because his father had put shame on him.
35 Un rītā Jonatāns izgāja laukā, kur ar Dāvidu bija norunāts, un mazs zēns bija viņam līdz.
Now in the morning, Jonathan went out into the fields at the time he had said to David, and he had a little boy with him.
36 Un viņš sacīja uz savu puisi: teci, meklē jel tās bultas, ko es šaušu. Tad tas puisis tecēja, un viņš šāva vienu bultu pāri pār to.
And he said to the boy, Go and get the arrow I let loose from my bow. And while the boy was running, he sent an arrow past him.
37 Kad nu tas puisis uz to vietu nāca, kur Jonatāns to bultu bija aizšāvis, tad Jonatāns tam puisim sauca pakaļ un sacīja: vai tā bulta nav tavā priekšā viņā pusē?
And when the boy came to the place where the arrow was, Jonathan, crying out after the boy, said, Has it not gone past you?
38 Atkal Jonatāns tam puisim sauca pakaļ: steidzies čakli, nestāvi! Tad tas puisis Jonatānam lasīja tās bultas un nāca atkal pie sava kunga.
And Jonathan went on crying out after the boy, Be quick, do not keep waiting about, go quickly. And Jonathan's boy got the arrow and came back to his master.
39 Bet tas puisis nezināja nekā; Jonatāns tikai un Dāvids zināja to lietu.
But the boy had no idea what was going on; only Jonathan and David had knowledge of it.
40 Un Jonatāns deva tos rīkus savam puisim, un uz to sacīja: ej, nes tos pilsētā.
And Jonathan gave his bow and arrows to the boy, and said to him, Take these and go back to the town.
41 Tā tas puisis nogāja, un Dāvids cēlās no dienasvidus puses un metās uz savu vaigu pie zemes un klanījās trīs reiz', un tie skūpstījās un raudāja abi divi, bet Dāvids jo stipri.
And when the boy had gone, David came from his secret place by the hill, and falling to the earth went down on his face three times: and they gave one another a kiss, weeping together, till David's grief was the greater.
42 Tad Jonatāns sacīja uz Dāvidu: ej ar mieru! Ko mēs abi iekš Tā Kunga vārda esam zvērējuši sacīdami: Tas Kungs lai ir starp mani un tevi, un starp manu dzimumu un tavu dzimumu, - tas lai tā paliek mūžīgi. Un viņš cēlās un aizgāja, un Jonatāns nāca pilsētā.
And Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, for we two have taken an oath, in the name of the Lord, saying, The Lord will be between me and you, and between my seed and your seed for ever. Then David went away, and Jonathan went into the town.
