Pirmā Samuela 21
1 Tad Dāvids nāca uz Nobu pie priestera Aķimeleka, un Aķimeleks gāja Dāvidam drebēdams pretī un uz to sacīja: kāpēc tu nāci viens pats, un neviena tev nav līdz?
Then came David to Nob to Ahimelech the priest: and Ahimelech was afraid at the meeting of David, and said to him, Why are you alone, and no man with you?
2 Tad Dāvids sacīja uz priesteri Aķimeleku: ķēniņš man kādu lietu ir pavēlējis un uz mani sacījis: lai neviens nekā nezin no tās lietas, par ko es tevi esmu sūtījis, un ko es tev esmu pavēlējis; un saviem puišiem es esmu pavēlējis, tai un tai vietā uz mani gaidīt.
And David said to Ahimelech the priest, The king has commanded me a business, and has said to me, Let no man know any thing of the business about which I send you, and what I have commanded you: and I have appointed my servants to such and such a place.
3 Nu tad, kas tev ir pie rokas? Dod man kādas piecas maizes, vai, kas atrodas.
Now therefore what is under your hand? give me five loaves of bread in my hand, or what there is present.
4 Tad tas priesteris Dāvidam atbildēja un sacīja: še man nav ikdienišķas maizes pie rokas, bet vien tās svētās maizes; ja tikai tie puiši no sievām būs noturējušies.
And the priest answered David, and said, There is no common bread under my hand, but there is hallowed bread; if the young men have kept themselves at least from women.
5 Tad Dāvids tam priesterim atbildēja un uz to sacīja: tiešām, sievas no mums ir nost bijušas vakar un aizvakar, kamēr es izgāju, un to puišu lietas bija svētas. Lai nu tas ceļš gan nav svēts, tomēr tas šodien taps svētīts caur to ieroci.
And David answered the priest, and said to him, Of a truth women have been kept from us about these three days, since I came out, and the vessels of the young men are holy, and the bread is in a manner common, yes, though it were sanctified this day in the vessel.
6 Tad tas priesteris tam deva svētu maizi, tāpēc ka citas maizes tur nebija, kā vien tās priekšliekamās maizes, kas no Tā Kunga vaiga bija atņemtas, ka atkal jaunas taptu uzliktas tai dienā, kad viņas tiek atņemtas.
So the priest gave him hallowed bread: for there was no bread there but the show bread, that was taken from before the LORD, to put hot bread in the day when it was taken away.
7 Un tur bija viens vīrs no Saula kalpiem tai dienā ieslēgts Tā Kunga priekšā, un viņa vārds bija Doēgs, viens Edomietis, virsnieks pār Saula ganiem.
Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, detained before the LORD; and his name was Doeg, an Edomite, the most chief of the herdsmen that belonged to Saul.
8 Un Dāvids sacīja uz Aķimeleku: vai tavā rokā nav kāds šķēps vai zobens? Jo es nedz savu zobenu nedz savas bruņas neesmu līdzi ņēmis, tāpēc ka ķēniņa lieta bija steidzama.
And David said to Ahimelech, And is there not here under your hand spear or sword? for I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king’s business required haste.
9 Tad tas priesteris sacīja: Fīlista Goliata zobens, ko tu ozolu ielejā nokāvi, redzi, tas ir še vienā drēbē ietīts aiz efoda; ja tu to gribi, tad ņem, jo te cita nav kā tas vien. Tad Dāvids sacīja: cita tāda nav, dod man to.
And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you slew in the valley of Elah, behold, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod: if you will take that, take it: for there is no other save that here. And David said, There is none like that; give it me.
10 Un Dāvids cēlās un bēga tai dienā no Saula un nāca pie Aķisa, Gatas ķēniņa.
And David arose and fled that day for fear of Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath.
11 Tad Aķisa kalpi uz to sacīja: vai šis nav Dāvids, tās zemes ķēniņš? Vai no tā netapa dziedāts ar stabulēm un sacīts: Sauls tūkstošus kāvis, bet Dāvids desmit tūkstošus.
And the servants of Achish said to him, Is not this David the king of the land? did they not sing one to another of him in dances, saying, Saul has slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands?
12 Un Dāvids šos vārdus ņēma pie sirds un bijās ļoti no Aķisa, Gatas ķēniņa.
And David laid up these words in his heart, and was sore afraid of Achish the king of Gath.
13 Tāpēc viņš izlikās ārprātīgs priekš viņu acīm un kā traks apakš viņu rokām kasīja vārtu durvis, un siekalas tam notecēja bārdā.
And he changed his behavior before them, and feigned himself mad in their hands, and scrabbled on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle fall down on his beard.
14 Tad Aķis sacīja uz saviem kalpiem: raugi, jūs redzat, ka tas vīrs ir traks, kāpēc jūs to pie manis esat atveduši?
Then said Achish to his servants, See, you see the man is mad: why then have you brought him to me?
15 Vai man traku nav diezgan, ka jūs šo pie manis esat atveduši, manā priekšā trakot, - vai tad tam būs nākt manā namā?
Have I need of mad men, that you have brought this fellow to play the mad man in my presence? shall this fellow come into my house?
