Otra Samuela 16

1 Kad nu Dāvids maķenīt no kalna gala bija nogājis, redzi, tad Cībus, Mefibošeta puisis, viņu sastapa ar pāri apkrautu ēzeļu, un uz tiem bija divsimt maizes un simts rozīņu raušu un simts vīģu raušu un ādas trauks ar vīnu.

Now, David, had passed on but a little from the summit, when lo! Ziba, servant of Mephibosheth, met him, —with a couple of asses saddled, and, upon them, two hundred cakes of bread, and one hundred cakes of raisins, and one hundred summer fruits, and a skin of wine.

2 Un ķēniņš sacīja uz Cību: kas tas tev tur ir? Tad Cībus sacīja: Tie ēzeļi ir priekš ķēniņa nama, ko jāt, un tā maize ar tām vīģēm priekš tiem puišiem, ko ēst, un tas vīns tiem piekusušiem tuksnesī, ko dzert.

And the king said unto Ziba, What meanest thou, by these? And Ziba said—The asses, are for the king’s household, to ride on, and, the bread and the summer fruits, are for the young men to eat, and, the wine, is for drink to such as are faint in the wilderness.

3 Tad ķēniņš sacīja: Kur tad ir tava kunga dēls? Un Cībus sacīja uz ķēniņu: redzi, viņš paliek Jeruzālemē, jo viņš sacīja: šodien Israēla nams man atdos mana tēva valstību.

Then said the king, And where is thy lord’s son? And Ziba said unto the king—Lo! abiding in Jerusalem, for he said, To-day, will the house of Israel, restore unto me, the kingdom of my father.

4 Tad ķēniņš sacīja uz Cību: redzi, tavs lai ir viss, kas Mefibošetam pieder. Un Cībus sacīja: es metos pie zemes, lai es žēlastību atrodu priekš tavām acīm, mans kungs un ķēniņ.

Then said the king unto Ziba, Lo! thine, is all that pertained to Mephibosheth. And Ziba said—I have done homage, that I might find favour in thine eyes, my lord O king.

5 Kad nu ķēniņš Dāvids nāca līdz Bakurim, redzi, tad no turienes izgāja vīrs no Saula nama radiem, Šimejus vārdā, Ģerus dēls.

And, when King David had come as far as Bahurim, lo! from thence a man coming out, of the family of the house of Saul, whose name, was Shimei son of Gera, coming out and cursing as he came.

6 Viņš izgāja un iedams lādēja un mētāja akmeņiem Dāvidu un visus ķēniņa Dāvida kalpus, lai gan visi ļaudis un visi varenie gāja pa viņa labo un kreiso roku.

And he pelted, with stones, David and all the servants of King David, —all the people, and all the mighty men, being on his right hand and on his left.

7 Un Šimejus sacīja tā lādēdams: ej ārā, ej ārā, tu asinsvīrs, tu negantais!

And, thus, said Shimei, when he cursed, —Out! Out! thou man of bloodshed, and man of the Abandoned One!

8 Tas Kungs liek pār tevi nākt visām Saula nama asinīm, kura vietā tu palicis par ķēniņu. Nu Tas Kungs to valstību dod tavam dēlam Absalomam rokā. Un redzi, nu tu esi nelaimē, jo tu esi asinsvīrs.

Yahweh, hath brought back upon thee, all the shed-blood of the house of Saul, in whose stead thou hast reigned, and Yahweh hath delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absolom thy son, —and, here thou art, in thy ruin, for that, a man of bloodshed, thou art.

9 Tad Abizajus, Cerujas dēls, sacīja uz ķēniņu: kāpēc šim nosprāgušam sunim būs lādēt manu kungu, to ķēniņu? Es noiešu un viņam noraušu galvu.

Then said Abishai, son of Zeruiah, unto the king—Wherefore should this dead dog curse my lord the king? I pray thee, let me cross over and take off his head.

10 Bet ķēniņš sacīja: kas man ar jums, jūs Cerujas dēli. Lai viņš lād, jo Tas Kungs viņam ir sacījis: lādi Dāvidu. Kas tad sacīs: kāpēc tu tā dari?

But the king said, What have I in common with you, ye sons of Zeruiah? thus, he curseth, because, Yahweh, hath said unto him—Curse David. Who then can say, Why hast thou done thus?

11 Un Dāvids sacīja uz Abizaju un visiem saviem kalpiem: redzi, mans dēls, kas no manām miesām nācis, meklē manu dzīvību, vai ne nu jo vairāk šis Benjaminietis? Laid viņu mierā; lai lād, jo Tas Kungs viņam to ir licis.

Then said David unto Abishai, and unto all his servants, Lo! my own son who sprang from my body, is seeking my life, —then how much more, now, a Benjamite? Let him alone, and let him curse, for, Yahweh, hath permitted him.

12 Varbūt Tas Kungs uzlūko manu noziegumu un Tas Kungs man šodien atkal atdos labumu viņa lāstu vietā.

It may be, that Yahweh will behold with his eye, —and that Yahweh will return me good, for his cursing this day.

13 Tā Dāvids gāja ar saviem vīriem pa ceļu, un Šimejus gāja gar kalnu, viņam iepretim, viņu lādēdams, un mētāja akmeņiem un putināja pīšļiem.

And, when David and his men went along in the way, Shimei, was going along on the side of the hill over against him, cursing as he went, pelting him with stones, and throwing dust.

14 Un ķēniņš ar visiem ļaudīm, kas pie viņa bija, nonāca uz Ajevīm un tur atspirdzinājās.

And the king and all the people that were with him arrived, weary, —and they refreshed themselves there.

15 Bet Absaloms un visi Israēla vīri nāca uz Jeruzālemi, ir Ahitofels ar viņu.

And, Absolom and all the men of Israel, entered Jerusalem, —and Ahithophel with him.

16 Un notikās, kad Uzajus, tas Arķiets, Dāvida draugs, nāca pie Absaloma, tad Uzajus sacīja uz Absalomu: lai dzīvo ķēniņš, lai dzīvo ķēniņš!

And it came to pass, when Hushai the Archite, the friend of David, came in unto Absolom, that Hushai said unto Absolom: Long live the king! Long live the king!

17 Bet Absaloms sacīja uz Uzaju: vai tā ir tava mīlestība uz tavu draugu? Kāpēc tu neesi gājis ar savu draugu?

Then said Absolom unto Hushai, Is, this, thy lovingkindness unto thy friend? Wherefore wentest thou not with thy friend?

18 Un Uzajus sacīja uz Absalomu: nē, bet ko Tas Kungs izredzējis un šie ļaudis un visi Israēla vīri, tam es arī piederēšu un pie tā es palikšu.

And Hushai said unto Absolom, Nay! but, whom Yahweh, and all this people, and the men of Israel have chosen, his, will I be, and, with him, will I dwell.

19 Un otram kārtam, kam man kalpot? Vai ne viņa dēlam? tā kā es tavam tēvam esmu kalpojis, tāpat es būšu tavā priekšā.

And, again, whom, should, I serve? Should it not be in presence of his son? as I served in presence of thy father, so, will I continue thy presence.

20 Un Absaloms sacīja uz Ahitofelu: dodiet padomu, ko lai darām?

Then said Absolom unto Ahithophel, —Give ye your counsel, what we shall do.

21 Un Ahitofels sacīja uz Absalomu: ieej pie sava tēva liekām sievām, ko viņš atstājis, to namu sargāt, tad viss Israēls dzirdēs, ka tu smirdots tapis savam tēvam, un visu to rokas, kas pie tevis ir, taps stiprinātas.

And Ahithophel said unto Absolom, Go in unto thy father’s concubines, whom he hath left to keep the house, —so shall all Israel hear that thou hast made thyself odious unto thy father, and the hands of all that are with thee, shall be strengthened.

22 Un tie taisīja Absalomam telti uz jumta, un Absaloms iegāja pie sava tēva liekām sievām, visam Israēlim redzot.

And they stretched out for Absolom a tent, upon the house-top, —and Absolom went in unto his father’s concubines, in the sight of all Israel.

23 Un Ahitofela padoms, ko viņš tanīs dienās deva, tā tapa turēts, itin kā Dieva vārds būtu vaicāts, tā bija viss Ahitofela padoms, tik labi pie Dāvida kā pie Absaloma.

Now, the counsel of Ahithophel which he counselled in those days, was as if a man had enquired at the oracle of God, —so, was all the counsel of Ahithophel, both to David, and also to Absolom.
