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, facing the waste?
2 Tad Sauls cēlās un nogāja uz Zifas tuksnesi, un viņam līdz trīstūkstoš izlasīti Israēla vīri, Dāvidu meklēt Zifas tuksnesī.
And 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 faces the waste, by the way side. And David abode in the wilderness; and when he saw that Saul had come after him into the wilderness,
4 Tad Dāvids izsūtīja izlūkus un nomanīja Saulu tiešām nākam.
David sent out spies, and learned that Saul was certainly come.
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 host; and Saul lay within the wagon-defence, and the people were encamped round 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.
And David spake and said to Ahimelech the Hittite, and to Abishai the son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, 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.
And David and Abishai came to the people by night, and behold, Saul lay sleeping within the wagon-defence, and 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.
And Abishai said to David, God has delivered thine enemy into thy hand this day; and now let me smite him, I pray thee, with the spear, even to the ground once, and I will not do it 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 stretch 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 liveth, Jehovah will surely smite him; either his day shall come to die, or he shall descend 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 stretch 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.
And David took the spear and the cruse of water from Saul's head; and they went away, and no man saw [it], and none knew [it], and none awaked, for they were all asleep; for a deep sleep from Jehovah had 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.
And David went over to the other side, and stood on the top of a hill 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 to the people, and to Abner the son of Ner, saying, Answerest thou not, Abner? Then Abner answered and said, Who art thou that criest 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, Art not thou a man? and who is like to thee in Israel? and why hast thou not guarded thy lord the king? for one of the people came 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 which thou hast done. As Jehovah liveth, ye are worthy to die, because ye have not guarded your master, 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 thus 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.
And now, I pray thee, let my lord the king hear the words of his servant. If Jehovah have moved thee against me, let him accept an oblation; but if the sons of men, cursed be they before Jehovah; for they have driven me out this day from adhering 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.
And now, let not my blood fall to the earth far from the face of Jehovah; for the king of Israel is come out to seek a single flea, as when they hunt a partridge on 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.
And 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 acted foolishly, 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 king's spear, and let 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; for Jehovah gave thee into [my] hand this day, and I would not stretch 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 highly esteemed this day in mine eyes, so let my life be highly esteemed in the eyes of Jehovah, that he may deliver me out of all distress.
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.
And Saul said to David, Blessed be thou, my son David: thou shalt certainly do [great things], and shalt certainly prevail. And David went on his way, and Saul returned to his place.
