Pirmā Samuela 26
1 Tad Zifieši nāca pie Saula uz Ģibeju un sacīja: vai Dāvids nav paslēpies uz Aķilas pakalna šaipus tuksneša?
And the Ziphites came to Saul to Gibeah, saying, Does not David hide himself in the hill of Hachilah, which is before the desert?
2 Tad Sauls cēlās un nogāja uz Zifas tuksnesi, un viņam līdz trīstūkstoš izlasīti Israēla vīri, Dāvidu meklēt Zifas tuksnesī.
Then Saul arose, and went down to the wilderness of Ziph, having three thousand chosen men of Israel with him, to seek David in the wilderness of Ziph.
3 Un Sauls apmeta lēģeri uz Aķilas pakalna, kas šaipus tuksneša ceļmalā. Bet Dāvids palika tuksnesī. Un kad viņš redzēja, ka Sauls viņam pakaļ nāca tuksnesī,
And Saul encamped in the hill of Hachilah, which is before the desert by the way. But David abode in the wilderness, and he saw that Saul came after him into the wilderness.
4 Tad Dāvids izsūtīja izlūkus un nomanīja Saulu tiešām nākam.
David therefore sent out spies, and understood that Saul definitely came.
5 Un Dāvids cēlās un nāca uz to vietu, kur Sauls bija apmeties, un Dāvids redzēja to vietu, kur Sauls gulēja ar Abneru, Nera dēlu, savu karalielkungu, un Sauls gulēja starp tiem savestiem lēģera ratiem, un tie ļaudis ap viņu bija apmetušies.
And David arose, and came to the place where Saul had encamped. And David beheld the place where Saul lay, and Abner the son of Ner, the captain of his army. And Saul lay within the place of the wagons, and the people were encamped around about him.
6 Tad Dāvids bilda un sacīja uz Aķimeleku, to Etieti, un uz Abizaju, Cerujas dēlu, Joaba brāi, sacīdams: Kas man ies līdz pie Saula lēģerī? Tad Abizajus sacīja: es iešu tev līdzi.
Then David answered and said to Ahimelech the Hittite, and to Abishai the son of Zeruiah, brother to Joab, saying, Who will go down with me to Saul to the camp? And Abishai said, I will go down with thee.
7 Tad Dāvids un Abizajus nāca pie (Saula) ļaudīm naktī, un redzi, Sauls gulēja aizmidzis starp tiem savestiem lēģera ratiem, un viņa šķēps bija viņa galvas galā zemē iedurts, bet Abners un tie ļaudis gulēja ap viņu.
So David and Abishai came to the people by night. And, behold, Saul lay sleeping within the place of the wagons with his spear stuck in the ground at his head, and Abner and the people lay round about him.
8 Tad Abizajus sacīja uz Dāvidu: Dievs šodien tavu ienaidnieku ir devis tavā rokā; lai es nu viņu jel ar vienu reizi noduru ar šķēpu pie zemes, tad viņam otru reizi vairs nevajadzēs.
Then said Abishai to David, God has delivered up thine enemy into thy hand this day. Now therefore let me smite him, I pray thee, with the spear to the earth at one stroke, and I will not smite him the second time.
9 Bet Dāvids sacīja uz Abizaju: nenonāve viņu, jo kas savu roku varētu pielikt pie Tā Kunga svaidītā un palikt nenoziedzīgs?
And David said to Abishai, Destroy him not, for who can put forth his hand against Jehovah's anointed, and be guiltless?
10 Un Dāvids sacīja: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo, - ja Tas Kungs viņu nesitīs, vai nu viņa diena nāks, ka tas mirs, vai tas karā ies un ies bojā, -
And David said, As Jehovah lives, Jehovah will smite him, or his day shall come to die, or he shall go down into battle and perish.
11 Lai Tas Kungs mani pasargā, ka es savu roku liktu pie Tā Kunga svaidītā! Tāpēc ņem jel nu to šķēpu, kas ir viņa galvas galā, un to ūdens biķeri un ejam.
Jehovah forbid that I should put forth my hand against Jehovah's anointed. But now take, I pray thee, the spear that is at his head, and the cruse of water, and let us go.
12 Tā Dāvids ņēma to šķēpu un to ūdens biķeri no Saula galvas gala, un tie gāja projām, un neviens to neredzēja, un neviens to nemanīja, un neviens neuzmodās, bet tie gulēja visi, jo ciets miegs no Tā Kunga tiem bija uzkritis.
So David took the spear and the cruse of water from Saul's head, and they got away. And no man saw it, nor knew it, neither did any awake, for they were all asleep, because a deep sleep from Jehovah was fallen upon them.
13 Kad nu Dāvids uz otru pusi bija pārgājis, tad viņš stāvēja kalna galā no tālienes, ka vēl plata vieta bija viņu starpā.
Then David went over to the other side, and stood on the top of the mountain afar off, a great space being between them.
14 Un Dāvids uzkliedza tiem ļaudīm un Abneram, Nera dēlam, un sacīja: vai tu neatbildi Abner? Tad Abners atbildēja un sacīja: kas tu tāds esi, ka tu tā pret ķēniņu kliedzi?
And David cried out to the people, and to Abner the son of Ner, saying, Answer thou not, Abner? Then Abner answered and said, Who are thou that cries to the king?
15 Tad Dāvids sacīja uz Abneru: vai tu neesi vīrs? Un kas tev ir līdzīgs iekš Israēla? Kāpēc tad tu savu kungu, to ķēniņu, neesi sargājis? Jo viens no tiem ļaudīm ir nācis, ķēniņu, tavu kungu, nonāvēt.
And David said to Abner, Are not thou a valiant man? And who is like to thee in Israel? Why then have thou not kept watch over thy lord the king? For there came one of the people in to destroy the king thy lord.
16 Tas nav labi, ko tu esi darījis; tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo, jo jūs nāvi esat pelnījuši, tāpēc ka jūs savu kungu, Tā Kunga svaidīto, neesat labāki sargājuši. Un nu redzi, kur ķēniņa šķēps ir un tas ūdens biķeris, kas bija viņa galvas galā?
This thing is not good that thou have done. As Jehovah lives, ye are worthy to die because ye have not kept watch over your lord, Jehovah's anointed. And now see where the king's spear is, and the cruse of water that was at his head.
17 Un Sauls pazina Dāvida balsi un sacīja: vai šī nav tava balss, mans dēls Dāvid? Un Dāvids sacīja: mana balss, mans kungs un ķēniņ.
And Saul knew David's voice, and said, Is this thy voice, my son David? And David said, It is my voice, my lord, O king.
18 Un viņš sacīja: kāpēc mans kungs savu kalpu tā vajā? Jo ko es esmu darījis un kāds ļaunums ir manā rokā?
And he said, Why does my lord pursue after his servant? For what have I done? Or what evil is in my hand?
19 Un nu klausi jel, mans kungs un ķēniņ, sava kalpa vārdus. Ja Tas Kungs tevi pret mani skubina, tad lai viņš ož upura dāvanu, bet ja cilvēku bērni to dara, tad tie lai ir nolādēti priekš Tā Kunga, tāpēc ka tie mani šodien izdzen, ka es nevaru palikt iekš Tā Kunga mantības, sacīdami: ej, kalpo svešiem dieviem.
Now therefore, I pray thee, let my lord the king hear the words of his servant. If it be Jehovah who has stirred thee up against me, let him accept an offering, but if it be the sons of men, cursed be they before Jehovah. For they have driven me out this day that I should not cling to the inheritance of Jehovah, saying, Go, serve other gods.
20 Bet lai nu manas asinis pie zemes nekrīt tālu no Tā Kunga vaiga, jo Israēla ķēniņš ir izgājis vienu blusu meklēt, tā kā irbi medī uz kalniem.
Now therefore, let not my blood fall to the earth away from the presence of Jehovah. For the king of Israel has come out to seek a flea, as when a man hunts a partridge in the mountains.
21 Tad Sauls sacīja: es esmu grēkojis, griezies atpakaļ, mans dēls Dāvid, jo es tev vairs ļauna nedarīšu, tāpēc ka mana dvēsele šodien ir dārga bijusi tavās acīs; redzi, es esmu aplam darījis un ļoti noziedzies.
Then Saul said, I have sinned. Return, my son David, for I will no more do thee harm because my life was precious in thine eyes this day. Behold, I have played the fool, and have erred exceedingly.
22 Tad Dāvids atbildēja un sacīja: redz, še ir ķēniņa šķēps, lai tad viens no tiem puišiem nāk un to paņem.
And David answered and said, Behold the spear, O king! Let then one of the young men come over and fetch it.
23 Bet Tas Kungs lai ikvienam maksā pēc viņa taisnības un pēc viņa uzticības; gan Tas Kungs tevi šodien manā rokā bija devis, bet es savu roku negribēju likt pie Tā Kunga svaidītā.
And Jehovah will render to every man his righteousness and his faithfulness, inasmuch as Jehovah delivered thee into my hand today, and I would not put forth my hand against Jehovah's anointed.
24 Un redzi, kā tava dvēsele šodien ir augsti turēta manās acīs, tā lai mana dvēsele augsti top turēta Tā Kunga acīs, un lai viņš mani izpestī no visām bēdām.
And, behold, as thy life was much set by this day in my eyes, so let my life be much set by in the eyes of Jehovah, and let him deliver me out of all tribulation.
25 Tad Sauls sacīja uz Dāvidu: svētīts tu esi, mans dēls Dāvid, tiešām ko tu uzņemsies, to tu tiešām arī izvedīsi galā. Tad Dāvids gāja savu ceļu, un Sauls griezās atpakaļ uz savu vietu.
Then Saul said to David, Blessed be thou, my son David. Thou shall both do mightily, and shall surely prevail. So David went his way, and Saul returned to his place.
