Otra Samuela 3
1 Un karš starp Saula namu un Dāvida namu vilcinājās. Bet Dāvids palika jo dienas jo spēcīgāks, un Saula nams jo dienas jo vājāks.
Now there was a long war between Saul's people and David's people; and David became stronger and stronger, but those on Saul's side became more and more feeble.
2 Un Dāvidam Hebronē piedzima dēli: viņa pirmdzimtais bija Ammons, no Aķinoamas, tās Jezreēlietes.
While David was in Hebron he became the father of sons: the oldest was Amnon, son of Ahinoam of Jezreel;
3 Un viņa otrs bija Ķileabs no Abigaīles, Nābala sievas, no Karmeļa. Un trešais Absaloms, no Maākas, Talmaja, Gešuras ķēniņa, meitas.
And the second, Chileab, whose mother was Abigail, the wife of Nabal the Carmelite; and the third, Absalom, son of Maacah, the daughter of Talmai, king of Geshur;
4 Un ceturtais Adonijus, Aģitas dēls. Un piektais Šefatijus, Abitalas dēls.
And the fourth, Adonijah, the son of Haggith; and the fifth, Shephatiah, the son of Abital;
5 Un sestais Jetreams no Eglas, Dāvida sievas. Šie dzima Dāvidam Hebronē.
And the sixth, Ithream, whose mother was David's wife Eglah. These were the sons of David, whose birth took place in Hebron.
6 Kamēr nu karš bija starp Saula namu un Dāvida namu, tad Abners stipri turējās pie Saula nama.
Now while there was war between Saul's people and David's people, Abner was making himself strong among the supporters of Saul.
7 Un Saulam bija lieka sieva bijusi, Ricpa vārdā, Ajas meita. Un (Išbošets) sacīja uz Abneru: kāpēc tu guli pie mana tēva liekas sievas?
Now Saul had among his wives a woman named Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah: and Ish-bosheth said to Abner, Why have you taken my father's wife?
8 Tad Abners ļoti apskaitās par Išbošeta vārdiem un sacīja: vai tad es esmu suņa galva, kas pie Jūda turas? Tava tēva Saula namam, viņa brāļiem un viņa draugiem es šodien parādu žēlastību un tevi neesmu nodevis Dāvida rokā, un tu man šodien noziegumu pārmeti tās sievas dēļ!
And Abner was very angry at the words of Ish-bosheth, and he said, Am I a dog's head of Judah? I am this day doing all in my power for the cause of your father Saul and for his brothers and his friends, and have not given you up into the hands of David, and now you say I have done wrong with a woman.
9 Lai Dievs Abneram šā un tā dara, ja es tā nedarīšu Dāvidam, kā Tas Kungs viņam ir zvērējis,
May God's punishment be on Abner, if I do not for David as the Lord in his oath has said,
10 Noceldams valstību no Saula nama un uzceldams Dāvida goda krēslu pār Israēli un pār Jūdu no Dana līdz Bēršebai.
And if I do not take away the kingdom from the family of Saul and make David ruler over Israel and Judah from Dan as far as Beer-sheba!
11 Un tas Abneram ne vārda vairs nevarēja atbildēt, tā tas viņu bijās.
And so great was Ish-bosheth's fear of Abner that he was not able to say a word in answer.
12 Un Abners sūtīja savā vietā vēstnešus pie Dāvida un sacīja: kam tā zeme pieder? Un sacīja: deri derību ar mani, redzi, tad mana roka būs ar tevi, atgriezt visu Israēli pie tevis.
And Abner sent men to David at Hebron, saying, Make an agreement with me, and I will give you my support in getting all Israel on your side.
13 Un viņš sacīja: labi, es ar tevi derēšu derību, bet vienu lietu es prasu no tevis, proti, tev manu vaigu nebūs redzēt, pirms tu man nebūsi atvedis Mikali, Saula meitu, kad tu nāksi redzēt manu vaigu.
And he said, It is well; I will make an agreement with you, but on one condition, which is, that when you come before me, Saul's daughter Michal is to come with you; till she comes you will not see my face.
14 Un Dāvids sūtīja vēstnešus pie Išbošeta, Saula dēla, sacīdams: dod man Mikali, manu sievu, ko esmu precējies ar simts Fīlistu priekšādām.
And David sent men to Saul's son Ish-bosheth, saying, Give me back Michal, my wife, whom I made mine for the price of the private parts of a hundred Philistines.
15 Un Išbošets nosūtīja un to ņēma no vīra, no Paltiēļa, Laīsa dēla.
So Ish-bosheth sent and took her from her husband Paltiel, the son of Laish.
16 Un viņas vīrs gāja viņai līdz, un iedams raudāja viņai pakaļ līdz Bakurim. Tad Abners uz to sacīja: ej, griezies atpakaļ. Tad viņš griezās atpakaļ.
And her husband went with her as far as Bahurim, weeping while he went. Then Abner said to him, Go back. And he went back.
17 Un Abners bija runājis ar Israēla vecajiem un sacījis: jūs citkārt Dāvidu esat meklējuši sev par ķēniņu.
Then Abner had a talk with the chief men of Israel, saying, In the past it was your desire to make David your king: so now, do it:
18 Tad dariet nu to, jo Tas Kungs uz Dāvidu ir runājis un sacījis: caur Sava kalpa Dāvida roku Es izpestīšu Savus Israēla ļaudis no Fīlistu rokas un no visu viņu ienaidnieku rokas.
For the Lord has said of David, By the hand of my servant David I will make my people Israel safe from the Philistines, and from all who are against them.
19 Tāpat Abners bija runājis priekš Benjamina ausīm, un Abners nogāja arī priekš Dāvida ausīm Hebronē runāt visu, kas Israēlim un visam Benjamina namam labi patika.
And Abner said the same things to Benjamin: and he went to David in Hebron to make clear to him what seemed good to Israel and to all the people of Benjamin.
20 Un Abners nāca pie Dāvida uz Hebroni un divdesmit vīri viņam līdz, un Dāvids Abneram un tiem vīriem, kas viņam bija līdz, taisīja dzīres.
So Abner, with twenty men, came to Hebron, to David. And David made a feast for Abner and the men who were with him.
21 Tad Abners sacīja uz Dāvidu: es celšos un iešu un sapulcināšu visu Israēli pie sava kunga, tā ķēniņa, ka tie ar tevi der derību; tad tu varēsi valdīt pār visu, kas tavai dvēselei patīk. Tā Dāvids atlaida Abneru, un tas aizgāja ar mieru.
And Abner said to David, Now I will go, and make all Israel come to my lord the king, so that they may make an agreement with you, and your kingdom may be as wide as your heart's desire. Then David sent Abner away and he went in peace.
22 Un redzi, Dāvida kalpi un Joabs griezās atpakaļ no sirošanas un pārnesa lielu laupījumu. Un Abners nebija vairs pie Dāvida Hebronē, bet šis to bija atlaidis, ka tas ar mieru bija aizgājis.
Now the servants of David and Joab had been out attacking a band of armed men, and they came back with a great store of goods taken in the fight: but Abner was no longer in Hebron with David, for he had sent him away and he had gone in peace.
23 Kad nu Joabs un viss tas spēks ar viņu pārnāca, tad Joabam teica un sacīja: Abners, Nera dēls, ir nācis pie ķēniņa un tas viņu ir atlaidis, ka viņš ar mieru aizgājis.
When Joab and his men came, news was given them that Abner, the son of Ner, had come to the king, who had let him go away again in peace.
24 Tad Joabs gāja pie ķēniņa un sacīja: ko tu esi darījis? Redzi, Abners pie tevis ir nācis, - kāpēc tu viņu esi atlaidis, ka tas aizgājis?
Then Joab came to the king, and said, What have you done? when Abner came to you why did you send him away and let him go?
25 Tu gan Abneru, Nera dēlu, pazīsti, ka tas ir nācis tevi pierunāt, ka viņš vērā liktu tavu iziešanu un ieiešanu un izprastu visu, ko tu dari.
Is it not clear to you that Abner, the son of Ner, came with deceit to get knowledge of your going out and your coming in and of all you are doing?
26 Un Joabs izgāja no Dāvida un sūtīja vēstnešus Abneram pakaļ, kas viņu atkal atveda no Ziras akas; bet Dāvids par to nezināja.
And when Joab had come out from David, he sent men after Abner, and they overtook him at the water-spring of Sirah, and made him come back with them: but David had no knowledge of it.
27 Kad nu Abners uz Hebroni nāca atpakaļ, tad Joabs viņu veda vārtos, klusu ar viņu parunāt, un tur tas viņam dūra vēderā, ka tas nomira, par viņa brāļa Azaēļa asinīm.
And when Abner was back in Hebron, Joab took him on one side by the doorway of the town to have a word with him quietly, and there he gave him a wound in the stomach, causing his death in payment for the death of his brother Asahel.
28 Kad nu Dāvids to pēcak dzirdēja, tad viņš sacīja: es esmu nenoziedzīgs un mana valstība Tā Kunga priekšā mūžīgi pie Abnera, Nera dēla, asinīm.
And when David had word of it he said, May I and my kingdom be clear for ever in the eyes of the Lord from the blood of Abner, the son of Ner:
29 Lai tās nāk uz Joaba galvu un uz visu viņa tēva namu, un lai Joaba namā netrūkst, kam izpil un kas ir spitālīgs un kas pie spieķa staigā un kas caur zobenu krīt un kam maizes trūkst.
May it come on the head of Joab and all his father's family: among the men of Joab's family may there ever be some who are diseased or lepers, or who do the work of women, or are put to the sword, or are wasted from need of food!
30 Tā Joabs un Abizajus, viņa brālis, nokāva Abneru par to, ka tas Azaēli, viņu brāli, bija nokāvis kaujā pie Gibeonas.
So Joab and Abishai his brother put Abner to death, because he had put to death their brother Asahel in the fight at Gibeon.
31 Tad Dāvids sacīja uz Joabu un uz visiem ļaudīm, kas pie viņa bija: saplēšat savas drēbes un apvelciet maisus un žēlojaties Abnera pēc. Un ķēniņš Dāvids gāja bērēm pakaļ.
And David said to Joab and all the people who were with him, Go in grief and put haircloth about you, in sorrow for Abner. And King David went after the dead body.
32 Kad nu Abneru apraka Hebronē, tad ķēniņš pacēla savu balsi un raudāja pie Abnera kapa, un visi ļaudis raudāja.
And they put Abner's body to rest in Hebron; and the king and all the people were weeping loudly by the resting-place of Abner's body.
33 Un ķēniņš žēlojās par Abneru un sacīja: vai Abneram bija jāmirst, kā mirst nelietis?
And the king made a song of grief for Abner and said, Was the death of Abner to be like the death of a foolish man?
34 Tavas rokas nebija saistītas nedz tavas kājas liktas vara pinekļos; tu esi kritis, kā krīt caur netikliem. Tad visi ļaudis vēl vairāk par to raudāja.
Your hands were free, your feet were not chained: like the downfall of a man before evil men, so was your fall. And the weeping of the people over him went on again.
35 Un visi ļaudis nāca aicināt, lai Dāvids maizes ēstu, kamēr vēl bija dienas gaisma; tad Dāvids zvērēja un sacīja: lai Dievs man šā un tā dara, ja es baudīšu maizes vai cita kā, pirms saule noiet.
And the people came to make David take food, while it was still day, but David with an oath said, May God's punishment be on me if I take a taste of bread or any other thing till the sun has gone down!
36 Un visi ļaudis to dzirdēja, un tas tiem labi patika; viss ko ķēniņš darīja, tas visiem ļaudīm labi patika.
And all the people took note of it and were pleased: like everything the king did, it was pleasing to the people.
37 Un visi ļaudis un viss Israēls noprata tai dienā, ka tas nebija nācis no ķēniņa, ka Abners, Nera dēls, bija nokauts.
So it was clear to Israel and to all the people on that day that the king was not responsible for the death of Abner, the son of Ner.
38 Un ķēniņš sacīja uz saviem kalpiem: vai nezināt, ka šodien lielskungs un augsts vīrs ir kritis iekš Israēla?
And the king said to his servants, Do you not see that a chief and a great man has come to his end today in Israel?
39 Bet es vēl šodien esmu par jaunu, nule par ķēniņu svaidīts. Un šie vīri, Cerujas dēli, man ir par stipriem; Tas Kungs lai atmaksā tiem ļauna darītājiem pēc viņu ļaundarīšanas.
While I, though I am crowned king, have little strength, and these men, the sons of Zeruiah, are out of my control: may the Lord give to the evil-doer the reward of his evil-doing!
