Otra Samuela 11
1 Un kad gads bija pagājis, ap to laiku, kad ķēniņi mēdz iziet, tad Dāvids sūtīja Joabu un savus kalpus viņam līdz un visu Israēli, un tie postīja Amona bērnus un apmetās pret Rabu; bet Dāvids palika Jeruzālemē.
In the spring, at the time when kings march out to war, David sent out Joab and his servants with the whole army of Israel. They destroyed the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah, but David remained in Jerusalem.
2 Un notikās ap vakara laiku, ka Dāvids cēlās no savas gultas un staigāja pa ķēniņa nama jumtu un redzēja no jumta sievu mazgājamies, un šī sieva bija ļoti skaista no skata.
One evening David got up from his bed and strolled around on the roof of the palace. And from the roof he saw a woman bathing—a very beautiful woman.
3 Un Dāvids nosūtīja un lika vaicāt pēc tās sievas; tad sacīja: tā ir Batseba, Elijama meita, Hetieša Ūrijas sieva.
So David sent and inquired about the woman, and he was told, “This is Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam and the wife of Uriah the Hittite.”
4 Tad Dāvids sūtīja vēstnešus un to lika atvest, un tā nāca pie viņa un viņš pie tās gulēja, un kad viņa no savas nešķīstības bija šķīstījusies, tad viņa atkal gāja mājās.
Then David sent messengers to get her, and when she came to him, he slept with her. (Now she had just purified herself from her uncleanness.) Then she returned home.
5 Un tā sieva tapa grūta. Tad viņa nosūtīja un deva Dāvidam ziņu un sacīja: es esmu grūta.
And the woman conceived and sent word to David, saying, “I am pregnant.”
6 Tad Dāvids sūtīja pie Joaba sacīdams: sūti to Etieti Ūriju pie manis. Un Joabs sūtīja Ūriju pie Dāvida.
At this, David sent orders to Joab: “Send me Uriah the Hittite.” So Joab sent him to David.
7 Kad nu Ūrija pie viņa atnāca, tad Dāvids vaicāja: kā iet Joabam, kā iet ļaudīm un kā iet karā.
When Uriah came to him, David asked how Joab and the troops were doing with the war.
8 Un Dāvids sacīja uz Ūriju: noej savā namā un mazgā savas kājas. Un kad Ūrija no ķēniņa nama izgāja, tad viņam ķēniņa dāvanas tapa nestas pakaļ.
Then he said to Uriah, “Go down to your house and wash your feet.” So Uriah left the palace, and a gift from the king followed him.
9 Bet Ūrija apgūlās priekš ķēniņa nama durvīm ar visiem sava kunga kalpiem un negāja mājās.
But Uriah slept at the door of the palace with all his master’s servants; he did not go down to his house.
10 Un Dāvidam deva ziņu un sacīja: Ūrija nav gājis uz mājām. Tad Dāvids sacīja uz Ūriju: Vai tu nenāci no ceļa? Kāpēc tu nenoej savā namā?
And David was told, “Uriah did not go home.” “Haven’t you just arrived from a journey?” David asked Uriah. “Why didn’t you go home?”
11 Un Ūrija sacīja uz Dāvidu: Dieva šķirsts un Israēls un Jūda paliek teltīs, un mans kungs Joabs un mana kunga kalpi mīt laukā; vai tad es ietu mājās ēst un dzert un pie savas sievas gulēt? Tik tiešām kā tu dzīvs un tava dvēsele dzīva, es to nedarīšu.
Uriah answered, “The ark and Israel and Judah are dwelling in tents, and my master Joab and his soldiers are camped in the open field. How can I go to my house to eat and drink and sleep with my wife? As surely as you live, and as your soul lives, I will not do such a thing!”
12 Tad Dāvids sacīja uz Ūriju: paliec arī šodien šeitan, tad es tev rītu atlaidīšu. Tā Ūrija palika Jeruzālemē šo un otru dienu.
“Stay here one more day,” David said to Uriah, “and tomorrow I will send you back.” So Uriah stayed in Jerusalem that day and the next.
13 Un Dāvids to aicināja, ka tas viņa priekšā ēda un dzēra, un viņš to piedzirdināja. Un vakarā viņš izgāja apgulties savās cisās ar sava kunga kalpiem, un viņš nenogāja mājās.
Then David invited Uriah to eat and drink with him, and he got Uriah drunk. And in the evening Uriah went out to lie down on his cot with his master’s servants, but he did not go home.
14 Un otrā rītā Dāvids rakstīja grāmatu Joabam un to sūtīja caur Ūriju.
The next morning David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it with Uriah.
15 Un tai grāmatā viņš tā bija rakstījis: nostādiet Ūriju tai vietā, kur tā visgrūtākā kaušanās, un novēršaties aiz viņa, ka viņš top kauts un mirst.
In the letter he wrote: “Put Uriah at the front of the fiercest battle; then withdraw from him, so that he may be struck down and killed.”
16 Un notikās, kad Joabs to pilsētu aplenca, tad viņš nostādīja Ūriju tādā vietā, kur viņš zināja, ka tur bija stipri vīri.
So as Joab besieged the city, he assigned Uriah to a place where he saw the strongest enemy soldiers.
17 Kad nu pilsētas vīri izgāja un ar Joabu kāvās, tad krita kādi no tiem ļaudīm, no Dāvida kalpiem, un Etietis Ūrija arī nomira.
And when the men of the city came out and fought against Joab, some of David’s servants fell, and Uriah the Hittite also died.
18 Tad Joabs sūtīja un deva Dāvidam ziņu par visām karalietām.
Joab sent to David a full account of the battle
19 Un viņš pavēlēja tam vēstnesim un sacīja: kad tu būsi ķēniņam izstāstījis visas karalietas,
and instructed the messenger, “When you have finished giving the king all the details of the battle,
20 Un ķēniņam dusmas celsies un viņš uz tevi sacīs: kāpēc jūs tik tuvu pie pilsētas esat gājuši kauties? Vai jūs nezinājāt, ka no mūra šaus?
if the king’s anger flares, he may ask you, ‘Why did you get so close to the city to fight? Did you not realize they would shoot from atop the wall?
21 Kas Abimeleku, JerubBezeta dēlu, ir nokāvis? Vai sieva uz viņu nemeta dzirnu akmeni no mūra, ka tas Tebecā nomira? Kāpēc esat gājuši tik tuvu pie mūra? Tad saki: tavs kalps Ūrija, tas Etietis, arīdzan nomiris.
Who was the one to strike Abimelech son of Jerubbesheth? Was it not a woman who dropped an upper millstone on him from the wall, so that he died in Thebez? Why did you get so close to the wall?’ If so, then you are to say, ‘Your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead as well.’”
22 Un tas vēstnesis nogāja un nāca un stāstīja Dāvidam visu, par ko Joabs viņu bija sūtījis.
So the messenger set out and reported to David all that Joab had sent him to say.
23 Un tas vēstnesis sacīja uz Dāvidu: tie vīri bija stiprāki nekā mēs, un iznāca pret mums laukā, bet mēs viņiem pretī turējāmies līdz pat vārtu durvīm.
The messenger said to David, “The men overpowered us and came out against us in the field, but we drove them back to the entrance of the gate.
24 Tad strēlnieki no mūra šāva uz taviem kalpiem, ka kādi no ķēniņa kalpiem nomira,
Then the archers shot at your servants from the wall, and some of the king’s servants were killed. And your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead as well.”
25 Un tavs kalps Ūrija, tas Etietis, arīdzan nomiris. Tad Dāvids sacīja uz to vēstnesi: Tā saki uz Joabu: lai tev sirds neēdās šīs lietas dēļ, jo zobens rij te šo, te citu, stāvi jo stipri karā pret to pilsētu un izposti to, - un tā iedrošini viņu.
Then David told the messenger, “Say this to Joab: ‘Do not let this matter upset you, for the sword devours one as well as another. Strengthen your attack against the city and demolish it.’ Encourage him with these words.”
26 Kad nu Ūrijas sieva dzirdēja, ka viņas vīrs Ūrija bija miris, tad viņa gaudās par savu kungu.
When Uriah’s wife heard that her husband was dead, she mourned for him.
27 Un kad gaudu laiks bija pagājis, tad Dāvids nosūtīja un to ņēma savā namā, un tā viņam palika par sievu un viņam dzemdēja dēlu. Bet šī lieta, ko Dāvids darīja, Tam Kungam nepatika.
And when the time of mourning was over, David had her brought to his house, and she became his wife and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done was evil in the sight of the LORD.
