< Otra Samuela 15 >
1 Un pēc tam Absaloms sev sagādāja ratus un zirgus un piecdesmit vīrus, kas viņa priekšā skrēja.
After this, Absalom prepared a chariot and horses for himself, and fifty men to run before him.
2 Un Absaloms cēlās no rīta agri un nostājās ceļā pie vārtiem, un ja kam bija kāda tiesas lieta, par ko viņš pie ķēniņa nāca tiesāties, tad Absaloms to aicināja pie sevis un sacīja: no kuras pilsētas tu esi? Un kad tas sacīja: tavs kalps ir no šīs jeb tās Israēla cilts,
Absalom rose up early, and stood beside the way of the gate. When any man had a suit which should come to the king for judgement, then Absalom called to him, and said, “What city are you from?” He said, “Your servant is of one of the tribes of Israel.”
3 Tad Absaloms uz to sacīja: redzi, tava lieta ir laba un taisna, bet tev nav izklausinātāja pie ķēniņa.
Absalom said to him, “Behold, your matters are good and right; but there is no man deputized by the king to hear you.”
4 Un Absaloms uz to sacīja: ak! Kas mani celtu par zemes soģi, lai, ja kam kāds strīdus vai tiesas lieta būtu, nāktu pie manis un es tam gādātu taisnību!
Absalom said moreover, “Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man who has any suit or cause might come to me, and I would do him justice!”
5 Un kad kāds pie viņa nāca un metās zemē, tad viņš izstiepa savu roku un to satvēra un to skūpstīja.
It was so, that when any man came near to bow down to him, he stretched out his hand, took hold of him, and kissed him.
6 Tā Absaloms darīja visam Israēlim, kas pie ķēniņa nāca tiesāties. Tā Absaloms zaga sirdi Israēla vīriem.
Absalom did this sort of thing to all Israel who came to the king for judgement. So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.
7 Un pēc četriem gadiem Absaloms sacīja uz ķēniņu: es gribu noiet un savu apsolījumu Hebronē izpildīt, ko es Tam Kungam solījis.
At the end of forty years, Absalom said to the king, “Please let me go and pay my vow, which I have vowed to the LORD, in Hebron.
8 Jo tavs kalps ir solījumu solījis, kad es Gešurā Sīrijā dzīvoju, sacīdams: ja Tas Kungs mani tiešām vedīs atpakaļ uz Jeruzālemi, tad es kalpošu Tam Kungam.
For your servant vowed a vow while I stayed at Geshur in Syria, saying, ‘If the LORD shall indeed bring me again to Jerusalem, then I will serve the LORD.’”
9 Tad ķēniņš uz to sacīja: ej ar mieru. Un viņš cēlās un gāja uz Hebroni.
The king said to him, “Go in peace.” So he arose and went to Hebron.
10 Un Absaloms sūtīja izlūkus pie visām Israēla ciltīm un sacīja: kad jūs dzirdēsiet trumetes skaņu, tad jums būs sacīt: Absaloms ir ķēniņš Hebronē.
But Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “As soon as you hear the sound of the trumpet, then you shall say, ‘Absalom is king in Hebron!’”
11 Un ar Absalomu gāja divsimt vīri no Jeruzālemes, kas bija aicināti, bet tie gāja savā vientiesībā un nezināja it nenieka.
Two hundred men went with Absalom out of Jerusalem, who were invited, and went in their simplicity; and they didn’t know anything.
12 Absaloms sauca arī Ahitofelu no Ģilus, Dāvida padoma devēju, no viņa pilsētas Ģilus, kad viņš upurus upurēja. Un dumpinieku derība palika stipra un ļaudis pulcējās un vairojās pie Absaloma.
Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David’s counsellor, from his city, even from Giloh, while he was offering the sacrifices. The conspiracy was strong, for the people increased continually with Absalom.
13 Tad nāca vēstnesis pie Dāvida un sacīja: visu Israēla vīru sirds pieķērusies Absalomam.
A messenger came to David, saying, “The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom.”
14 Tad Dāvids sacīja uz visiem saviem kalpiem, kas pie viņa bija Jeruzālemē: ceļaties un bēgsim, citādi mums glābšanās nav priekš Absaloma; ejat steigšus, ka viņš steigdamies mūs nepanāk un nepadara mums nelaimi un nekauj to pilsētu ar zobena asmeni.
David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, “Arise! Let’s flee, or else none of us will escape from Absalom. Hurry to depart, lest he overtake us quickly and bring down evil on us, and strike the city with the edge of the sword.”
15 Tad ķēniņa kalpi uz ķēniņu sacīja: tā kā mans kungs, tas ķēniņš, nodomā, redzi, mēs esam tavi kalpi.
The king’s servants said to the king, “Behold, your servants are ready to do whatever my lord the king chooses.”
16 Un ķēniņš izgāja ar visu savu namu kājām. Un ķēniņš atstāja desmit liekas sievas, to namu sargāt.
The king went out, and all his household after him. The king left ten women, who were concubines, to keep the house.
17 Tā nu ķēniņš ar visiem ļaudīm kājām izgāja un apstājās pie pēdējā nama.
The king went out, and all the people after him; and they stayed in Beth Merhak.
18 Un visi viņa kalpi gāja viņam līdzās, ir visi Krieti un visi Plieti ir visi Gatieši, sešsimt vīri, kas viņam no Gatas bija līdz nākuši, tie gāja ķēniņa priekšā.
All his servants passed on beside him; and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men who came after him from Gath, passed on before the king.
19 Tad ķēniņš sacīja uz Itaju no Gatas. Kam tu arīdzan mums gribi iet līdz? Ej atpakaļ un paliec pie ķēniņa, jo tu esi svešinieks un tik ienācējs savā vietā.
Then the king said to Ittai the Gittite, “Why do you also go with us? Return, and stay with the king; for you are a foreigner and also an exile. Return to your own place.
20 Vakar tu esi atnācis, vai man šodien tevi būs maldināt, mums iet līdz? Jo es eju, kur varēdams; ej atpakaļ un ved savus brāļus līdz atpakaļ; žēlastība un uzticība lai ir ar tevi.
Whereas you came but yesterday, should I today make you go up and down with us, since I go where I may? Return, and take back your brothers. Mercy and truth be with you.”
21 Bet Itajus atbildēja ķēniņam un sacīja: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvs, un kā mans kungs, tas ķēniņš, dzīvs, - tai vietā, kur mans kungs, tas ķēniņš, būs, lai būtu vai uz nāvi vai uz dzīvību, tur būs tavs kalps arīdzan.
Ittai answered the king and said, “As the LORD lives, and as my lord the king lives, surely in what place my lord the king is, whether for death or for life, your servant will be there also.”
22 Un Dāvids sacīja uz Itaju: nāc tad, iesim! Tā Itajus no Gatas gāja līdz ar visiem saviem vīriem un ar visiem bērniem, kas pie viņa bija.
David said to Ittai, “Go and pass over.” Ittai the Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones who were with him.
23 Un visa zeme raudāja lielas raudas, un visi ļaudis gāja garām. Un ķēniņš gāja pāri pār Kidronas upi, un visi ļaudis gāja pāri pa to ceļu uz tuksnesi.
All the country wept with a loud voice, and all the people passed over. The king also himself passed over the brook Kidron, and all the people passed over towards the way of the wilderness.
24 Un redzi, arī Cadoks tur bija ar visiem Levitiem, kas Dieva derības šķirstu nesa; un tie nolika Dieva šķirstu un Abjatars tur pienāca - kamēr visi ļaudis no pilsētas bija izgājuši.
Behold, Zadok also came, and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of God; and they set down God’s ark; and Abiathar went up until all the people finished passing out of the city.
25 Tad ķēniņš sacīja uz Cadoku: nes Dieva šķirstu atpakaļ pilsētā. Ja es žēlastību atradīšu Tā Kunga priekšā, tad Viņš mani vedīs atpakaļ un man liks redzēt Viņu pašu ar Viņa dzīvokli.
The king said to Zadok, “Carry God’s ark back into the city. If I find favour in the LORD’s eyes, he will bring me again, and show me both it and his habitation;
26 Bet ja Viņš tā sacīs: Man nav labs prāts pie tevis, - redzi, še es esmu, lai Viņš man dara, kā Viņam patīk.
but if he says, ‘I have no delight in you,’ behold, here I am. Let him do to me as seems good to him.”
27 Un ķēniņš sacīja uz priesteri Cadoku: tu redzētāj, ej atpakaļ uz pilsētu ar mieru, un Aķimaācs, tavs dēls, un Jonatāns, Abjatara dēls, jūsu abi dēli ar jums.
The king said also to Zadok the priest, “Aren’t you a seer? Return into the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz your son and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.
28 Redziet, es gaidīšu tuksnesī pie braslām, tiekams kāda vēsts no jums atnāks un man dos ziņu.
Behold, I will stay at the fords of the wilderness until word comes from you to inform me.”
29 Tā Cadoks un Abjatars Dieva šķirstu nesa atpakaļ uz Jeruzālemi un tur palika.
Zadok therefore and Abiathar carried God’s ark to Jerusalem again; and they stayed there.
30 Un Dāvids kāpa uz Eļļas kalnu un iedams raudāja un savu galvu bija aptinis un gāja pats basām kājām, arī tie ļaudis, kas pie viņa bija, ikkatrs savu galvu bija aptinis un gāja uz augšu un iedami raudāja.
David went up by the ascent of the Mount of Olives, and wept as he went up; and he had his head covered and went barefoot. All the people who were with him each covered his head, and they went up, weeping as they went up.
31 Un Dāvidam teica un sacīja: Ahitofels ir starp dumpiniekiem pie Absaloma. Tad Dāvids sacīja: Kungs, dari jel Ahitofela padomu par ģeķību!
Someone told David, saying, “Ahithophel is amongst the conspirators with Absalom.” David said, “LORD, please turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.”
32 Kad nu Dāvids nāca kalna galā, kur mēdza Dievu pielūgt, redzi, tad Uzajus, tas Arķiets, viņam nāca pretī ar saplēstiem svārkiem un zemi uz galvas.
When David had come to the top, where God was worshipped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his tunic torn and earth on his head.
33 Un Dāvids uz to sacīja: ja tu man nāksi līdz, tad tu man būsi par nastu.
David said to him, “If you pass on with me, then you will be a burden to me;
34 Bet ja tu iesi atpakaļ pilsētā un sacīsi uz Absalomu: es būšu tavs kalps, ķēniņ, kā citkārt esmu bijis tava tēva kalps, tā nu es būšu tavs kalps, - tad tu man iznīcināsi Ahitofela padomu.
but if you return to the city, and tell Absalom, ‘I will be your servant, O king. As I have been your father’s servant in time past, so I will now be your servant; then will you defeat for me the counsel of Ahithophel.’
35 Un vai tur pie tevis nebūs tie priesteri Cadoks un Abjatars? Tāpēc visu, ko tu ķēniņa namā dzirdēsi, to saki tiem priesteriem, Cadokam un Abjataram.
Don’t you have Zadok and Abiathar the priests there with you? Therefore whatever you hear out of the king’s house, tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.
36 Redzi, tur ir viņu abi dēli, Aķimaācs Cadoka, un Jonatāns, Abjatara dēls, caur tiem jūs visu, ko dzirdat, sūtat pie manis.
Behold, they have there with them their two sons, Ahimaaz, Zadok’s son, and Jonathan, Abiathar’s son. Send to me everything that you shall hear by them.”
37 Tā Uzajus, Dāvida draugs, gāja pilsētā, kad Absaloms nāca uz Jeruzālemi.
So Hushai, David’s friend, came into the city; and Absalom came into Jerusalem.
