Pirmā Samuela 24
1 Un notikās, kad nu Sauls no Fīlistiem bija griezies atpakaļ, tad viņam teica un sacīja: redzi, Dāvids ir Enģedu tuksnesī.
And it came to pass, when Saul was returned from following the Philistines, that it was told him, saying, Behold, David is in the wilderness of En-gedi.
2 Tad Sauls ņēma trīstūkstoš izlasītus vīrus no visa Israēla un gāja meklēt Dāvidu ar viņa vīriem uz tiem mežu kazu kalniem.
Then Saul took three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men upon the rocks of the wild goats.
3 Un viņš nāca pie tiem avju laidariem ceļmalā; tur bija viena ala, un Sauls tanī iegāja savas kājas apsegt, bet Dāvids un viņa vīri sēdēja alas dibenā.
And he came to the sheepcotes by the way, where was a cave; and Saul went in to cover his feet: and David and his men remained in the sides of the cave.
4 Tad Dāvida vīri uz to sacīja: redzi, šī ir tā diena, par ko Tas Kungs tev ir sacījis: “Redzi, Es tavu ienaidnieku dodu tavā rokā, un tev būs viņam darīt, kā tev tīk.” Un Dāvids cēlās un nogrieza klusiņām vienu stūri no Saula svārkiem.
And the men of David said unto him, Behold the day of which YHWH said unto thee, Behold, I will deliver thine enemy into thine hand, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good unto thee. Then David arose, and cut off the skirt of Saul's robe privily.
5 Bet pēc tam Dāvidam sirds par to lēca, ka viņš to stūri no Saula svārkiem bija nogriezis.
And it came to pass afterward, that David's heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul's skirt.
6 Un viņš sacīja uz saviem vīriem: lai Tas Kungs mani no tā pasargā, ka es ko darītu savam kungam, Tā Kunga svaidītam, un savu roku pie viņa pieliktu, - jo viņš ir Tā Kunga svaidītais.
And he said unto his men, YHWH forbid that I should do this thing unto my master, YHWH 's anointed, to stretch forth mine hand against him, seeing he is the anointed of YHWH.
7 Un Dāvids apsauca savus vīrus ar vārdiem un viņiem neļāva pret Saulu celties; un Sauls cēlās no tās alas un gāja pa ceļu.
So David stayed his servants with these words, and suffered them not to rise against Saul. But Saul rose up out of the cave, and went on his way.
8 Tad arī Dāvids cēlās un izgāja no alas un sauca Saulam pakaļ un sacīja: mans kungs un ķēniņ! Tad Sauls skatījās atpakaļ. Un Dāvids locīdadamies ar savu vaigu nometās zemē.
David also arose afterward, and went out of the cave, and cried after Saul, saying, Mymaster the king. And when Saul looked behind him, David stooped with his face to the earth, and bowed himself.
9 Un Dāvids sacīja uz Saulu: kāpēc tu klausi cilvēku vārdiem, kas saka: redzi, Dāvids meklē tavu nelaimi?
And David said to Saul, Wherefore hearest thou men's words, saying, Behold, David seeketh thy hurt?
10 Redzi, šodien tavas acis redz, ka Tas Kungs tevi šodien tai alā bija devis manā rokā. Un gan sacīja, lai es tevi nokauju, bet (mana roka) tevi žēloja, jo es sacīju: es nepielikšu savu roku pie sava kunga, jo viņš ir Tā Kunga svaidītais.
Behold, this day thine eyes have seen how that YHWH had delivered thee to day into mine hand in the cave: and some bade me kill thee: but mine eye spared thee; and I said, I will not put forth mine hand against mymaster; for he is YHWH 's anointed.
11 Redzi jel, mans tēvs, redzi savu svārku stūri manā rokā; jo kad es to stūri no taviem svārkiem nogriezu, tad es tevi neesmu nokāvis. Atzīsti tad un redzi, ka manā rokā nav nedz ļaunuma nedz blēdības, un ka pret tevi neesmu grēkojis; taču tu meklē manu dvēseli paņemt.
Moreover, my father, see, yea, see the skirt of thy robe in my hand: for in that I cut off the skirt of thy robe and killed thee not, know thou and see that there is neither evil nor transgression in mine hand, and I have not sinned against thee; yet thou huntest my soul to take it.
12 Tas Kungs tiesās starp mani un tevi, tiešām Tas Kungs mani pie tevis atriebs, bet mana roka nebūs pret tevi.
YHWH judge between me and thee, and YHWH avenge me of thee: but mine hand shall not be upon thee.
13 Tā kā top teikts pēc veca sakāma vārda: no bezdievīgiem nāk bezdievība; bet mana roka nebūs pret tevi.
As saith the proverb of the ancients, Wickedness proceedeth from the wicked: but mine hand shall not be upon thee.
14 Pret ko tu, Israēla ķēniņ, esi izgājis? Kam tu dzenies pakaļ? Vienam nedzīvam sunim, vienai blusai!
After whom is the king of Israel come out? after whom dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, after a flea.
15 Bet Tas Kungs būs par tiesnesi un tiesās starp mani un tevi, un redzēs un pārstāvēs manu tiesu un mani izglābs no tavas rokas.
YHWH therefore be judge, and judge between me and thee, and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out of thine hand.
16 Kad nu Dāvids bija beidzis šos vārdus uz Saulu runāt, tad Sauls sacīja: vai šī nav tava balss, mans dēls Dāvid? Un Sauls pacēla savu balsi un raudāja.
And it came to pass, when David had made an end of speaking these words unto Saul, that Saul said, Is this thy voice, my son David? And Saul lifted up his voice, and wept.
17 Un viņš sacīja uz Dāvidu: tu esi taisnāks nekā es. Jo tu man esi labu darījis, bet es tev ļaunu esmu atmaksājis.
And he said to David, Thou art more righteous than I: for thou hast rewarded me good, whereas I have rewarded thee evil.
18 Un nu tu man šodien esi parādījis, ka tu pie manis esi labu darījis, kad Tas Kungs mani tavā rokā bija iedevis, bet tu mani neesi nokāvis.
And thou hast shewed this day how that thou hast dealt well with me: forasmuch as when YHWH had delivered me into thine hand, thou killedst me not.
19 Kad, kas savu ienaidnieku atrod, vai viņš tam liks staigāt pa labu ceļu? Lai Tas Kungs tev labu atmaksā par to, ko tu šodien pie manis esi darījis.
For if a man find his enemy, will he let him go well away? wherefore YHWH reward thee good for that thou hast done unto me this day.
20 Un nu, redzi, es zinu, ka tu tiešām būsi par ķēniņu, un ka Israēla valstība stāvēs tavā rokā.
And now, behold, I know well that thou shalt surely be king, and that the kingdom of Israel shall be established in thine hand.
21 Tad zvērē nu man pie Tā Kunga, ka tu manu dzimumu pēc manis negribi izdeldēt, nedz iznīcināt manu vārdu no mana tēva nama.
Swear now therefore unto me by YHWH, that thou wilt not cut off my seed after me, and that thou wilt not destroy my name out of my father's house.
22 Tad Dāvids zvērēja Saulam. Un Sauls gāja savās mājās, bet Dāvids un viņa vīri gāja uz augšu tai nepieejamā vietā.
And David sware unto Saul. And Saul went home; but David and his men got them up unto the hold.
