Otra Samuela 14
1 Kad nu Joabs, Cerujas dēls, manīja, ka ķēniņa sirds pēc Absaloma ilgojās,
And Joab son of Zeruial knows that the heart of the king [is] on Absalom,
2 Tad Joabs sūtīja uz Tekou un dabūja no turienes gudru sievu un uz to sacīja: liecies jel žēlojoties un apvelc sēru drēbes un nesvaidies ar eļļu un turies kā sieva, kas sen dienas sērojās par mironi.
and Joab sends to Tekoah, and takes a wise woman from there, and says to her, “Please feign yourself a mourner, and now put on garments of mourning, and do not anoint yourself with oil, and you have been as a woman mourning for the dead [for] these many days,
3 Un ej pie ķēniņa un runā uz to tā un tā. Un Joabs lika tos vārdus viņas mutē.
and you have gone to the king, and spoken to him, according to this word”; and Joab puts the words into her mouth.
4 Un tā Tekoiešu sieva sacīja uz ķēniņu, uz savu vaigu pie zemes mezdamās un klanīdamās: palīdzi, ķēniņ!
And the woman of Tekoah speaks to the king, and falls on her face to the earth, and pays respect, and says, “Save, O king.”
5 Un ķēniņš uz to sacīja: kas tev kait? Un viņa sacīja: kait gan, esmu atraitne un mans vīrs miris.
And the king says to her, “What do you [want]?” And she says, “I [am] truly a widow woman, and my husband dies,
6 Un tad vēl tavai kalponei bija divi dēli, tie abi bārās laukā un tiem nebija starpnieka, tad viens sita otru un to nokāva.
and your maidservant has two sons; and both of them strive in a field, and there is no deliverer between them, and one strikes the other, and puts him to death;
7 Un redzi, visi radi cēlās pret tavu kalponi un saka: dod šurp to, kas savu brāli nokāvis, lai mēs viņu nokaujam par tā brāļa dzīvību, ko viņš nokāvis, un izdeldam arī šo mantinieku. Tā tie grib izdzēst manu dzirkstelīti, kas atlikusi, un neatstāt manam vīram ne vārda, ne pēcnākamais virs zemes.
and behold, the whole family has risen against your maidservant, and say, Give up him who strikes his brother, and we put him to death for the life of his brother whom he has slain, and we also destroy the heir; and they have quenched my coal which is left—so as not to set a name and remnant on the face of the ground for my husband.”
8 Tad ķēniņš uz to sievu sacīja: ej mājās, gan es tevis pēc pavēlēšu.
And the king says to the woman, “Go to your house, and I give charge concerning you.”
9 Un tā Tekoiešu sieva sacīja uz ķēniņu: mans kungs un ķēniņ, lai tas noziegums paliek uz manis un uz mana tēva nama, bet ķēniņš un viņa goda krēsls lai paliek nenoziedzīgs.
And the woman of Tekoah says to the king, “On me, my lord, O king, [is] the iniquity, and on the house of my father; and the king and his throne [are] innocent.”
10 Un ķēniņš sacīja: ja kas pret tevi runā, tad atved to pie manis, tad tam tevi vairs nebūs aizskart.
And the king says, “He who speaks to you, and you have brought him to me, then he does not add to come against you anymore.”
11 Un viņa sacīja: lai jel ķēniņš piemin To Kungu, savu Dievu, ka asins atriebēji nevairo to postu, ka tie manu dēlu nenomaitā. Tad viņš sacīja: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvs, neviens no tava dēla matiem nekritīs pie zemes!
And she says, “Please let the king remember by your God YHWH, that the redeemer of blood does not add to destroy, and they do not destroy my son”; and he says, “YHWH lives; if there falls [even one] hair of your son to the earth.”
12 Tad tā sieva sacīja: lai jel tava kalpone vienu vārdu uz savu kungu, to ķēniņu, runā. Un viņš sacīja: runā!
And the woman says, “Please let your maidservant speak a word to my lord the king”; and he says, “Speak.”
13 Un tā sieva sacīja: kāpēc tad tu tādu lietu esi nodomājis pret Dieva ļaudīm? Kad ķēniņš šo vārdu runājis, caur to viņš ir tā kā noziedzīgs, tāpēc ka ķēniņš savu atmesto neatved atpakaļ.
And the woman says, “And why have you thought thus concerning the people of God? Indeed, the king is speaking this thing as a guilty one, in that the king has not brought back his outcast;
14 Jo mirt mums jāmirst un mēs esam kā ūdens, kas zemē izliets netop atkal sasmelts, un Dievs negrib dzīvību atņemt, bet domā uz to, ka neatmet arīdzan tādu, kas atmests.
for we surely die, and [are] as water which is running down to the earth, which is not gathered, and God does not accept a person, and has devised plans in that the outcast is not outcast by Him.
15 Nu tad es esmu nākusi ar savu kungu, to ķēniņu, šo vārdu runāt, jo tie ļaudis mani ir izbiedējuši. Tad tava kalpone sacīja: es runāšu jel ar ķēniņu, vai ķēniņš nedarīs, ko viņa kalpone saka.
And now that I have come to speak this word to my lord the king, [it is] because the people made me afraid, and your maidservant says, Please let me speak to the king; it may be the king does the word of his handmaid,
16 Jo ķēniņš klausīs un izpestīs savu kalponi no tā vīra rokas, kas apņēmies mani un manu dēlu kopā izdeldēt no Dieva tautas.
for the king listens to deliver his handmaid out of the paw of the man [seeking] to destroy me and my son together out of the inheritance of God,
17 Un tava kalpone domāja, lai mana kunga, tā ķēniņa, vārds man ir par iepriecināšanu, jo mans kungs, tas ķēniņš, ir kā Dieva eņģelis, klausīdamies labu un ļaunu; bet Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, lai ir ar tevi.
and your maidservant says, Please let the word of my lord the king be for ease; for as a messenger of God so [is] my lord the king, to understand the good and the evil; and your God YHWH is with you.”
18 Tad ķēniņš atbildēja un sacīja uz to sievu: neslēp man nekā, ko es tev vaicāšu. Un tā sieva sacīja: runā jel, mans kungs un ķēniņ!
And the king answers and says to the woman, “Please do not hide from me the thing that I am asking you”; and the woman says, “Please let my lord the king speak.”
19 Un ķēniņš sacīja: vai Joaba roka ar tevi nav visās šinīs lietās? Tad tā sieva atbildēja un sacīja: tik tiešām kā tava dvēsele dzīva, mans kungs un ķēniņ, citādi nav ne pa labo ne pa kreiso roku ar visu to, kā mans kungs, tas ķēniņš, ir runājis; jo tavs kalps Joabs vien, tas man to ir pavēlējis un visus šos vārdus licis tavas kalpones mutē.
And the king says, “Is the hand of Joab with you in all this?” And the woman answers and says, “Your soul lives, my lord, O king, none [turn] to the right or to the left from all that my lord the king has spoken; for your servant Joab commanded me, and he put all these words in the mouth of your maidservant.
20 Šīs lietas nodomu gribēdams apslēpt, tavs kalps Joabs to ir darījis. Bet mans kungs ir gudrs pēc Dieva eņģeļa gudrības, zināt visu, kas virs zemes notiek.
Your servant Joab has done this thing in order to bring around the appearance of the thing, and my lord [is] wise, according to the wisdom of a messenger of God, to know all that [is] in the land.”
21 Un ķēniņš sacīja uz Joabu: redzi, es šo lietu esmu darījis. Ej tad un atved to puisi Absalomu atpakaļ.
And the king says to Joab, “Now behold, you have done this thing; and go, bring back the young man Absalom.”
22 Un Joabs klanījās uz savu vaigu pie zemes mezdamies un pateicās ķēniņam, un Joabs sacīja: šodien tavs kalps ir manījis, ka es žēlastību esmu atradis tavās acīs, mans kungs un ķēniņ, tāpēc ka ķēniņš sava kalpa vārdu paklausījis.
And Joab falls on his face to the earth, and pays respect, and blesses the king, and Joab says, “Today your servant has known that I have found grace in your eyes, my lord, O king, in that the king has done the word of his servant.”
23 Tā Joabs cēlās un gāja uz Gešuru un atveda Absalomu uz Jeruzālemi.
And Joab rises and goes to Geshur, and brings in Absalom to Jerusalem,
24 Un ķēniņš sacīja: lai viņš iet savā namā un nenāk priekš manām acīm. Tad Absaloms gāja savā namā un neredzēja ķēniņa vaigu.
and the king says, “Let him turn around to his house, and he does not see my face.” And Absalom turns around to his house, and he has not seen the face of the king.
25 Bet tāda vīra, tik skaista un ļoti slavējama kā Absaloms, nebija pa visu Israēli; no pēdām līdz galvas galam nekādas vainas pie viņa nebija.
And there was no man [so] beautiful in all Israel like Absalom, to praise greatly; from the sole of his foot even to his crown there was no blemish in him;
26 Un kad viņš savu galvu apcirpa, (tas notika gadu no gada, ka viņš to apcirpa, jo mati viņam bija visai smagi, tāpēc viņš tos nocirpa), tad viņa galvas mati svēra divsimt sēķeļus pēc ķēniņa svara.
and in his shaving his head—and it has been at the end of year by year that he shaves [it], for it [is] heavy on him, and he has shaved it—he has even weighed out the hair of his head—two hundred shekels by the king’s weight.
27 Un Absalomam piedzima trīs dēli un viena meita, Tamāra vārdā, tā bija ļoti skaista sieviete.
And there are born to Absalom three sons and one daughter, and her name [is] Tamar; she was a woman of beautiful appearance.
28 Tā Absaloms palika Jeruzālemē divus gadus un neredzēja ķēniņa vaigu.
And Absalom dwells in Jerusalem [for] two years of days, and he has not seen the face of the king;
29 Tāpēc Absaloms sūtīja pie Joaba, ka viņš to pie ķēniņa sūtītu, bet tas negribēja nākt pie viņa. Tad viņš sūtīja vēl otrreiz, un tas vēl negribēja nākt.
and Absalom sends to Joab, to send him to the king, and he has not been willing to come to him; and he sends again a second time, and he has not been willing to come.
30 Tad viņš sacīja uz saviem kalpiem: redzi, Joaba tīrums ir pie mana klātu, un viņam tur ir mieži; ejat un iededzinājiet to ar uguni. Tad Absaloma kalpi iededzināja to tīrumu ar uguni.
And he says to his servants, “See, the portion of Joab [is] by the side of mine, and he has barley there; go and burn it with fire”; and the servants of Absalom burn the portion with fire.
31 Un Joabs cēlās un nāca Absaloma namā un uz to sacīja: kāpēc tavi kalpi manu tīrumu ar uguni ir iededzinājuši?
And Joab rises and comes to Absalom in the house, and says to him, “Why have your servants burned the portion that I have with fire?”
32 Un Absaloms sacīja uz Joabu: redzi, es pie tevis esmu sūtījis sacīdams: nāc šurp, ka es tevi pie ķēniņa sūtu un lieku sacīt, kāpēc es esmu nācis no Gešuras? Man būtu labāki, ka es vēl tur būtu. Bet nu es gribu ķēniņa vaigu redzēt, un ja vēl kāds noziegums ir pie manis, tad lai viņš mani nokauj.
And Absalom says to Joab, “Behold, I sent to you, saying, Come here, and I send you to the king to say, Why have I come in from Geshur? [It was] good for me while I [was] there—and now, let me see the king’s face, and if there is iniquity in me then you have put me to death.”
33 Tad Joabs gāja pie ķēniņa un viņam to teica. Tad viņš aicināja Absalomu, un tas nāca pie ķēniņa un nometās uz savu vaigu pie zemes ķēniņa priekšā, un ķēniņš skūpstīja Absalomu.
And Joab comes to the king, and declares [it] to him, and he calls to Absalom, and he comes to the king, and bows himself to him, on his face, to the earth, before the king, and the king gives a kiss to Absalom.
