Otra Samuela 20

1 Un tur gadījās netikls vīrs, Šebus vārdā, Bikra dēls, Benjaminietis; tas pūta trumetes un sacīja: mums daļas nav pie Dāvida, nedz mantības pie Isajus dēla, - ikviens no Israēla ejat savā dzīvoklī!

Now there happened to be a worthless man, whose name was Sheba, the son of Bikri, a Benjamite. And he blew the trumpet, and said, "We have no share in David, nor do we have any inheritance in the son of Jesse. Every man to his tents, Israel."

2 Tad visi Israēla vīri gāja nost no Dāvida, Šebum, Bikra dēlam, pakaļ. Bet Jūda vīri turējās pie sava ķēniņa, no Jardānes līdz Jeruzālemei.

So all Israel deserted David and followed Sheba the son of Bikri, but the men of Judah stayed by their king, from the Jordan to Jerusalem.

3 Kad nu Dāvids uz Jeruzālemi pārnāca savā namā, tad ķēniņš ņēma tās desmit sievas, savas liekas sievas ko viņš bija atstājis, to namu sargāt, un tās ielika kādā sargu namā un tās apgādāja, bet vairs pie tām negāja. Un tās bija ieslēgtas līdz savai miršanas dienai un dzīvoja par atraitnēm.

Then David came to his palace at Jerusalem, and the king took the ten women his secondary wives, whom he had left to keep the palace, and placed them under guard, and provided for them, but did not go in to them. So they were kept in confinement until the day of their death, living as widows.

4 Un ķēniņš sacīja uz Amasu: sasauc man Jūda vīrus uz trešo dienu, un stāvi tu arīdzan te.

Then the king said to Amasa, "Summon the men of Judah to me within three days, and be present here yourself."

5 Tad Amasus gāja, Jūdu sasaukt, bet viņš kavējās pāri par nolikto laiku, ko tas viņam bija nolicis.

So Amasa went to summon Judah together, but he delayed beyond the set time that had been allotted him.

6 Tad Dāvids sacīja uz Abizaju: nu mums Šebus, Bikra dēls, darīs vairāk ļaunuma nekā Absaloms. Ņem sava kunga kalpus un dzenies viņam pakaļ, ka viņš netiek stiprās pilsētās un neizzūd no mūsu acīm.

David said to Abishai, "Now Sheba the son of Bikri will do us more harm than Absalom did. Now then, take your lord's servants with you and pursue after him, otherwise he will get himself to fortified cities and escape from us."

7 Tad Joaba vīri viņam izgāja pakaļ, ir tie Krieti un Plieti un visi varenie. Un tie izgāja no Jeruzālemes, Šebum, Bikra dēlam, dzīties pakaļ.

So there went out after him Joab's men and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, and all the warriors. And they went out from Jerusalem to pursue Sheba son of Bikri.

8 Kad tie nu pie tā lielā akmens nāca, kas ir Gibeonā, tad Amasus tos sastapa, bet Joabs bija apjozies pār savām drēbēm, kas viņam bija mugurā, un pār tām bija josta, kur zobens bija piesiets uz viņa gurniem savās makstīs, šis izslīdēja un tas (zobens) nokrita zemē.

When they were at the great stone that is in Gibeon, Amasa came to meet them. And Joab was wearing his military attire, and over it was a belt with a dagger in its sheath fastened at his waist, and as he advanced it fell out.

9 Un Joabs sacīja uz Amasu: vai tev labi klājās, mans brāli? Un Joabs satvēra ar labo roku Amasus bārdu, viņu skūpstīt.

And Joab said to Amasa, "Is it well with you, my brother?" Then Joab took Amasa by the beard with his right hand to kiss him.

10 Un Amasus nesargājās no tā zobena, kas bija Joaba rokā, un tas viņam to iedūra vēderā, ka viņa iekšas izgāzās zemē un viņam otras reizes vairs nevajadzēja, un viņš nomira. Bet Joabs un viņa brālis Abizajus dzinās pakaļ Šebum, Bikra dēlam.

But Amasa did not notice the sword that was in Joab's hand. And he stabbed him with it in the abdomen, so that his intestines spilled out on the ground, and he did not do it to him again. Thus he died. Then Joab and Abishai his brother pursued Sheba son of Bikri.

11 Un viens vīrs no Joaba puišiem palika pie viņa stāvot un sacīja: kam labs prāts ir pie Joaba, un kas Dāvidam (pieķeras), tas lai iet Joabam pakaļ.

And one of Joab's young men stood beside Amasa and said, "Whoever is the one that favors Joab and whoever belongs to David, follow Joab."

12 Bet Amasus vārtījās asinīs ceļa vidū. Kad nu tas vīrs redzēja, ka visi ļaudis tur apstājās, tad viņš Amasu no ceļa novēla uz tīrumu un uzmeta viņam drēbes, tāpēc ka redzēja, ka ikviens, kas pie viņa pienāca, apstājās.

But Amasa lay covered with his blood in the midst of the road, and anyone who came by, seeing him, stopped. So when the man saw that all the people stopped, he dragged Amasa from the road into a field and threw a garment over him.

13 Kad viņš nu no ceļa bija novelts, tad visi ļaudis gāja garām, Joabam pakaļ, Šebum, Bikra dēlam pakaļ dzīties.

When he was removed from the road, all the people followed Joab in pursuit of Sheba son of Bikri.

14 Un viņš gāja pa visām Israēla ciltīm uz Abelu un BetMaāku, un pa visu Berim-tiesu, un tie sapulcējās un gāja viņam pakaļ.

He went through all the tribes of Israel to Abel of Beth Maacah, and all the Bikrites assembled and followed him.

15 Un tie nāca un apmetās pret viņu Abel BetMaākā un uzmeta valni pret to pilsētu un tas stāvēja pie mūra, un visi ļaudis, kas pie Joaba bija, meklēja to mūri postīt un apgāzt.

And all the people who were with Joab came and besieged him in Abel of Beth Maacah. And they built a siege ramp against the city, and it stood against the rampart, and they were battering the wall so that it would collapse.

16 Tad viena gudra sieva no pilsētas sauca: klausiet, klausiet, sakāt jel Joabam: nāc šurp, es ar tevi gribu runāt.

Then a wise woman called out from the wall, "Listen, listen. Please tell Joab to come here so that I may speak to him.

17 Kad viņš nu pie tās atnāca, tad tā sieva sacīja: vai tu esi Joabs? Un viņš sacīja: es tas esmu. Un tā uz viņu sacīja: klausies savas kalpones vārdus. Un viņš sacīja: es klausos.

So he approached her, and the woman said, "Are you Joab?" And he replied, "I am." Then she said, "Listen to the words of your servant." And he replied, "I'm listening."

18 Tad viņa teica un sacīja: vecos laikos tā mēdza runāt: kas vaicā, lai vaicā Abelā, un tā tika galā.

Then she said, "In the past they used to say, 'Let them inquire in Abel and in Dan whether

19 Es esmu no tiem mierīgiem un uzticīgiem iekš Israēla, un tu meklē tādu pilsētu izdeldēt, kas ir māte iekš Israēla. Kāpēc tu gribi aprīt Tā Kunga mantību?

that which the faithful of Israel established has been carried out.' You seek to destroy a city that is a mother in Israel. Why do you want to swallow up the inheritance of the LORD?"

20 Tad Joabs atbildēja un sacīja: lai Dievs pasargā, lai Dievs pasargā, ka es aprītu un ka es izdeldētu; tas tā nav.

Joab answered, "Far be it from me that I should swallow up or destroy.

21 Bet viens vīrs no Efraīma kalniem, Šebus vārdā, Bikra dēls, tas savu roku pacēlis pret ķēniņu, pret Dāvidu; dodiet man to vien, tad es aiziešu projām no pilsētas. Tad tā sieva sacīja uz Joabu: redzi, viņa galva pie tevis taps nomesta pāri pār mūri.

That is not the case. But a man of the hill country of Ephraim, Sheba the son of Bikri, has rebelled against king David. Give up him alone and I will withdraw from the city." Then the woman said to Joab, "Look, his head will be thrown to you from the wall."

22 Un tā sieva nāca pie visiem ļaudīm ar savu gudrību, un tie Šebum, Bikra dēlam, nocirta galvu un to izmeta Joabam ārā. Tad viņš pūta trumetes, un tie izklīda no tās pilsētas projām, ikviens savā dzīvoklī, un Joabs griezās atpakaļ uz Jeruzālemi pie ķēniņa.

Then she spoke to all the city with her wise advice, and they cut off the head of Sheba son of Bikri and threw it out to Joab. So he blew the trumpet, and they were dispersed from him, each returning to his home. And Joab went back to Jerusalem to the king.

23 Un Joabs bija pār visu Israēla karaspēku, un Benajus, Jojada dēls, pār tiem Krietiem un Plietiem,

Now Joab was in command of the entire army of Israel; and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was in command of the Cherethites and in command of the Pelethites;

24 Un Adorams bija pār tiem darbiniekiem un Jehošafats, Aķiluda dēls, bija kanclers,

and Adoniram was in command of the forced labor; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder;

25 Un Zejus bija rakstu vedējs, un Cadoks un Abjatars bija priesteri,

and Shisha was scribe; and Zadok and Abiathar were priests;

26 Un arī Irus, Jaīra dēls, bija pie Dāvida lielskungs.

and also Ira the Jairite was David's priest.
