Otra Samuela 12
1 Un Tas Kungs sūtīja Nātanu pie Dāvida. Un tas gāja pie viņa un uz to sacīja: divi vīri bija vienā pilsētā, viens bagāts un otrs nabags.
Yahweh [told the prophet Nathan what David had done, and he] sent Nathan to tell [this story to] David: “[I heard about] two men [who] were living in a certain city. One was rich and the other was poor.
2 Un tam bagātam bija ļoti daudz avju un vēršu.
The rich man owned a lot of cattle and sheep.
3 Bet tam nabagam nebija it nekā kā viens vienīgs jēriņš, ko viņš bija pircis un uzaudzinājis, un tas pie viņa bija uzaudzis kopā ar viņa bērniem; tas ēda no viņa kumosa un dzēra no viņa biķera un gulēja viņa klēpī un bija viņam tā kā bērns.
But the poor man had only one little female lamb, which he had bought. He raised the lamb, and it grew up with his children. He would give the lamb some of his own food and let it drink from his cup. He let the lamb sleep in his arms. The lamb was like a daughter to him.
4 Kad nu pie tā bagātā vīra atnāca ceļinieks, tad tam bija žēl ņemt no savām avīm un no saviem vēršiem, ko laba sataisīt tam ceļiniekam, kas pie viņa bija atnācis, un viņš ņēma tā nabaga vīra jēriņu un to sataisīja tam vīram, kas pie viņa bija atnācis.
[One day] a visitor came to [visit] the rich man. The rich man did not want to take one of his own animals [and kill it] to prepare a meal for the visitor. So instead, he stole the poor man’s lamb [and killed it] and prepared a meal for his visitor.”
5 Tad Dāvids dusmās iedegās pret to vīru varen ļoti un viņš sacīja uz Nātanu: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvs, tas vīrs, kas to darījis, pelnījis nāvi.
[When] David [heard that, he] was very angry about [what] the rich man [had done]. He said to Nathan, “I solemnly declare that the man who did that should be executed!
6 Un to jēru tam būs četrkārtīgi atdot, tāpēc ka viņš tā darījis un ka nav žēlojis.
But before he is executed, he should pay back to the poor man four lambs for doing this, and for not having pity [on the poor man].”
7 Tad Nātans sacīja uz Dāvidu: tu esi tas vīrs. Tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs: Es tevi par ķēniņu esmu svaidījis Israēlim, un tevi esmu izpestījis no Saula rokas,
Nathan said to David, “You are the man [I have been talking about]! And this is what Yahweh, the God we Israelis [worship], says to you: ‘I appointed you to be king of Israel, after having rescued you from Saul.
8 Un tev esmu devis tava kunga namu, un tava kunga sievas tavā klēpī, un Es tev esmu devis arī Israēla un Jūda namu. Un ja tas vēl nepietiek, tad Es šo un to vēl gribēju pielikt.
I gave you his palace and his wives. I caused you to become the king to rule Israel and Judah. If [you had told me that] you were not content with what I gave you, I would have given you twice as much!
9 Kāpēc tu tad Tā Kunga vārdu esi laidis pār galvu, darīdams, kas ļauns priekš Viņa acīm? To Etieti Ūriju tu esi nokāvis ar zobenu un viņa sievu sev ņēmis par sievu, bet viņu tu esi nokāvis ar Amona bērnu zobenu.
So why have you despised my commandment [about not committing adultery]? You have done what I consider to be very evil! You have arranged for Uriah to be killed in a battle by the Ammon people-group’s soldiers, and you have taken his wife to be your wife!
10 Nu tad zobens neatstāsies no tava nama ne mūžam, tāpēc ka tu Mani esi nicinājis un tā Hetieša Ūrijas sievu ņēmis sev par sievu.
You have despised me, and have taken Uriah’s wife to be your wife. So for many generations some of your descendants will die violently. [MTY, PRS]
11 Tā saka Tas Kungs: redzi, Es vedīšu nelaimi pār tevi no tava paša nama un ņemšu tavas sievas priekš tavām acīm un tās došu tavam tuvākam; tas pie tavām sievām gulēs pašā saulē.
I solemnly declare to you that I will cause someone from your own family to bring trouble to you. I will take your wives and give them to him, and he will have sexual relations with them in the daytime, where everyone can see it, and you will know all about it.
12 Jo tu to esi darījis slepeni, bet Es to darīšu visa Israēla priekšā un pašā saulē.
What you did, you did secretly, but what I will cause to happen, everyone in Israel will be able to see it [or know about it]. [IDM]’”
13 Tad Dāvids sacīja uz Nātanu: es esmu grēkojis pret To Kungu. Un Nātans sacīja uz Dāvidu: tad nu Tas Kungs arī tavus grēkus ir atņēmis; tev nebūs mirt.
David replied, “I have sinned against Yahweh.” Nathan said to David, “Yahweh has forgiven you for your sin: You will not die [because of this sin].
14 Tomēr tāpēc ka tu caur šo lietu Tā Kunga ienaidniekiem esi devis tiešām iemeslu zaimot, tad arī tam dēlam, kas tev dzimis, būs mirt.
But, you have shown contempt for Yahweh by doing this. So, your baby will die.”
15 Un Nātans gāja savā namā. Un Tas Kungs sita to bērnu, ko Ūrijas sieva Dāvidam bija dzemdējusi, ka tas palika ļoti slims.
Then Nathan went home. Then Yahweh caused the baby t o become very sick, the one that Uriah’s wife had given birth to.
16 Un Dāvids meklēja Dievu par to bērnu, un Dāvids gavēja un iegāja un gulēja par nakti pie zemes.
So David prayed to God that the child [would not die]. He (fasted/abstained from food), and he went into [the room where he slept] and lay all night on the floor.
17 Tad visi viņa nama vecaji gāja pie viņa un viņu gribēja uzcelt no zemes, bet viņš negribēja un neēda maizes ar tiem.
[The next morning] his advisors stood around him and urged him to get up. But he would not get up, and he would not eat any food with them.
18 Un septītā dienā tas bērns nomira. Un Dāvida kalpi bijās viņam sacīt, ka tas bērns miris. Jo tie sacīja: redzi, kamēr tas bērns vēl bija dzīvs, tad mēs ar viņu runājām, un viņš negribēja mūsu balsi klausīt, kā tad lai viņam sakām, ka tas bērns miris, lai viņš nepadara ko ļauna?
One week later the baby died. David’s servants were afraid to tell that to David. They said [to each other], “Hey, while the baby was still alive, we talked to him, but he would not answer us. Now, if we tell him that the baby is dead [RHQ], he may do something to harm himself!”
19 Bet Dāvids redzēja, ka viņa kalpi klusiņām savā starpā runāja, un Dāvids manīja, ka tas bērns miris. Un Dāvids sacīja uz saviem kalpiem: vai tas bērns miris? Un tie sacīja: miris.
But when David saw that his servants were whispering something to each other, he realized that the baby must be dead. So he asked them, “Is the baby dead?” They replied, “Yes, he is dead.”
20 Tad Dāvids cēlās no zemes un mazgājās un svaidījās un pārmija savas drēbes un gāja Tā Kunga namā un pielūdza. Pēc viņš nāca savā namā un pavēlēja, lai viņam maizi ceļ priekšā, un ēda.
Then David got up from the floor. He bathed himself, put lotions on his body, and put on other clothes, Then he went into Yahweh’s Sacred Tent and worshiped Yahweh. Then he went home. He asked his servants for some food. They gave him some, and he ate it.
21 Tad viņa kalpi uz viņu sacīja: kas tas ir, ko tu dari? Kad tas bērns bija dzīvs, tad tu gavēji un raudāji, un kad nu tas bērns miris, tad tu celies un ēdi maizi?
Then his servants said to him, “We do not understand [RHQ] why you have done this! While the baby was still alive, you cried for him and refused to eat anything. But now that the baby has died, [you are not crying any more!] You got up and ate some food!”
22 Un viņš sacīja: kamēr tas bērns vēl bija dzīvs, es gavēju un raudāju, jo es domāju, kas zin, vai Tas Kungs par mani neapžēlosies, ka tas bērns paliek dzīvs.
David replied, “While the baby was still alive, I fasted and cried. I thought, ‘Who knows? Yahweh may be merciful to me and not allow the baby to die’.
23 Bet kad tas nu miris, kāpēc man būs gavēt? Vai es to vēl varēšu vest atpakaļ? Es gan iešu pie viņa, bet viņš pie manis atpakaļ negriezīsies.
But now the baby is dead. So (there is no reason for me to (fast/abstain from eating food) any more./why should I (fast/abstain from eating food) any more?) [RHQ] (Can I bring him back to me?/I certainly cannot bring him back to me!) [RHQ] [Some day] I will go to where he is, but he will not return to me.”
24 Un Dāvids iepriecināja Batsebu, savu sievu, un iegāja pie tās un gulēja pie tās. Un tā dzemdēja dēlu un tas nosauca viņa vārdu Salamanu. Un Tas Kungs to mīlēja.
Then David comforted his wife, Bathsheba. Then he (slept/had sexual relations) with her, and she [became pregnant again and] gave birth to another son. David named that son Solomon. Yahweh loved that little boy.
25 Un viņš deva pavēli caur pravieti Nātanu, un šis nosauca viņa vārdu JedidJa (t.i. Dieva mīlēts) Tā Kunga dēļ.
He told the prophet Nathan to tell David to name the baby boy Jedediah [which means ‘loved by Yahweh’, ] because Yahweh loved him.
26 Un Joabs karoja pret Rabu, Amona bērnu pilsētu, un ieņēma to ķēniņa pilsētu.
(Meanwhile/While all that was happening), Joab’s [soldiers] attacked Rabbah, [the capital city] of the Ammon people-group; and they captured the king’s fortress.
27 Tad Joabs sūtīja vēstnešus pie Dāvida un sacīja: es pret Rabu esmu karojis un pilsētas lejas daļu jau ieņēmis.
Then Joab sent messengers to David, to tell him this: “My troops are attacking Rabbah, and we have captured the city’s water supply.
28 Tad nu sapulcini tos atlikušos ļaudis un apmeties pret to pilsētu un ieņem to, lai es neieņemu to pilsētu, un slava par to lai nepaliek man.
Now gather your troops and come and surround the city and capture it. If you do not do that, my troops will capture the city and it will then be named ‘the City of Joab’.”
29 Tad Dāvids sapulcināja visus ļaudis un nogāja uz Rabu un karoja pret to un to ieņēma,
So David gathered all his troops. They went [with David] to Rabbah and attacked it and captured it.
30 Un ņēma viņu ķēniņa kroni no viņa galvas, tam svars bija viens talents zelta un dārgu akmeņu, un tas Dāvidam tapa likts uz galvu; viņš arī ļoti lielu laupījumu izveda no tās pilsētas.
Then David took the crown from the head of the king of Rabbah (OR, from the head of [Milcom] the god of Rabbah) and put it on his own head. It [was very heavy; it] weighed (75 pounds/34 kg.), and it had many very valuable stones fastened to it. His soldiers also took many other valuable things from the city.
31 Un tos ļaudis, kas tur bija, viņš izveda un tos lika apakš zāģiem un apakš kuļamiem dzelzs ruļļiem un apakš dzelzs cirvjiem, un tos lika ķieģeļu cepļos. Tā viņš darīja visām Amona bērnu pilsētām. Un Dāvids un visi ļaudis griezās atpakaļ uz Jeruzālemi.
Then they brought the people of Rabbah out of the city and forced them to [work for them] using saws and iron picks and axes. David’s troops also forced them to make bricks. David’s soldiers did this in all the towns of the Ammon people-group. Then David and all of his army returned to Jerusalem.
