< Otra Samuela 1 >

1 Un notikās pēc Saula miršanas, kad Dāvids no Amalekiešu kaušanas bija atpakaļ griezies, tad Dāvids palika divas dienas Ciklagā.
Now it came to pass after the death of Saul, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, and David had stayed two days in Ziklag;
2 Un redzi, trešā dienā viens vīrs nāca no lēģera, no Saula, un viņa drēbes bija saplosītas, un zeme bija uz viņa galvas. Un kad viņš pie Dāvida nāca, viņš klanījās pie zemes mezdamies.
It came even to pass on the third day, that, behold, a man came out of the camp from Saul with his clothes rent, and earth on his head: and so it was, when he came to David, that he fell to the earth, and did obeisance.
3 Un Dāvids uz to sacīja: no kurienes tu nāci? Un tas uz viņu sacīja: no Israēla lēģera esmu izbēdzis.
And David said to him, From where come you? And he said to him, Out of the camp of Israel am I escaped.
4 Tad Dāvids uz to sacīja: kā tur iet? Teic man jel! Un tas sacīja: tie ļaudis no kaušanās ir bēguši un daudz no tiem ļaudīm krituši un miruši, arī Sauls un Jonatāns, viņa dēls, ir miruši.
And David said to him, How went the matter? I pray you, tell me. And he answered, That the people are fled from the battle, and many of the people also are fallen and dead; and Saul and Jonathan his son are dead also.
5 Tad Dāvids sacīja uz to puisi, kas viņam to teica: kā tu zini, ka Sauls un Jonatāns, viņa dēls, miruši?
And David said to the young man that told him, How know you that Saul and Jonathan his son be dead?
6 Tad tas puisis, kas viņam to teica, sacīja: nejauši es nācu uz Ģilboas kalniem un redzi, Sauls bija atspiedies uz savu šķēpu, un redzi, rati un jātnieki tam lauzās virsū.
And the young man that told him said, As I happened by chance on mount Gilboa, behold, Saul leaned on his spear; and, see, the chariots and horsemen followed hard after him.
7 Tad viņš griezās atpakaļ un mani ieraudzīja un mani sauca. Un es sacīju: še es esmu.
And when he looked behind him, he saw me, and called to me. And I answered, Here am I.
8 Un viņš uz mani sacīja: kas tu esi? Un es uz to sacīju: esmu Amalekietis.
And he said to me, Who are you? And I answered him, I am an Amalekite.
9 Un viņš uz mani sacīja: nāc šurp pie manis un nokauj mani, jo izbailes mani pārņēmušas, un mana dzīvība vēl ir vesela iekš manis.
He said to me again, Stand, I pray you, on me, and slay me: for anguish is come on me, because my life is yet whole in me.
10 Tad es pie tā piegāju un to nokāvu, jo es gan zināju, ka viņš pēc savas krišanas nevarēja dzīvot, un es paņēmu to kroni, kas bija uz viņa galvas, un viņa rokas greznumu un to nesu šurp pie sava kunga.
So I stood on him, and slew him, because I was sure that he could not live after that he was fallen: and I took the crown that was on his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them here to my lord.
11 Tad Dāvids sakampa savas drēbes un tās saplēsa, tāpat arī visi tie vīri, kas pie viņa bija.
Then David took hold on his clothes, and rent them; and likewise all the men that were with him:
12 Un tie žēlojās un raudāja un gavēja līdz vakaram par Saulu un par viņa dēlu Jonatānu un par Tā Kunga ļaudīm un par Israēla namu, tāpēc ka tie caur zobenu bija krituši.
And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until even, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword.
13 Un Dāvids sacīja uz to puisi, kas viņam to bija teicis: no kurienes tu esi? Un viņš sacīja: es esmu sveša vīra, viena Amalekieša, dēls.
And David said to the young man that told him, From where are you? And he answered, I am the son of a stranger, an Amalekite.
14 Un Dāvids uz to sacīja: kā tu neesi bijies izstiept savu roku, nomaitāt Tā Kunga svaidīto?
And David said to him, How were you not afraid to stretch forth your hand to destroy the LORD’s anointed?
15 Un Dāvids sauca vienu no tiem puišiem un sacīja: nāc, nokauj viņu. Un tas to kāva, ka tas nomira.
And David called one of the young men, and said, Go near, and fall on him. And he smote him that he died.
16 Un Dāvids uz to sacīja, tavas asinis lai paliek uz tavas galvas, jo tava paša mute pret tevi ir liecinājusi sacīdama: es Tā Kunga svaidīto esmu nokāvis.
And David said to him, Your blood be on your head; for your mouth has testified against you, saying, I have slain the LORD’s anointed.
17 Tad Dāvids dziedāja šo vaidu dziesmu par Saulu un par viņa dēlu Jonatānu,
And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son:
18 Un pavēlēja lai Jūda bērniem to stopa dziesmu mācītu (redzi, tā ir rakstīta tā taisnā grāmatā):
(Also he bade them teach the children of Judah the use of the bow: behold, it is written in the book of Jasher.)
19 Israēla glītums uz taviem kalniem nokauts! Kā tie varenie krituši!
The beauty of Israel is slain on your high places: how are the mighty fallen!
20 Nestāstat to Gatā, neteiciet to Askalonas ielās, ka Fīlistu meitas nepriecājās, ka neapgraizīto meitas nelīksmojās!
Tell it not in Gath, publish it not in the streets of Askelon; lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.
21 Ģilboas kalni, lai rasa un lietus vairs nav uz jums, nedz tīrumi upuru dāvanām, jo tur to vareno priekšturamās bruņas ir nomestas, Saula priekšturamās bruņas ar eļļu nesvaidītas.
You mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew, neither let there be rain, on you, nor fields of offerings: for there the shield of the mighty is vilely cast away, the shield of Saul, as though he had not been anointed with oil.
22 Jonatāna stops nekad nav dzīts atpakaļ un Saula zobens nekad nav pārnācis bez nokauto asinīm un vareno taukiem.
From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, the bow of Jonathan turned not back, and the sword of Saul returned not empty.
23 Sauls un Jonatāns, mīlīgi un laipni, dzīvībā un nāvē tie nav šķirti; tie bija vieglāki nekā ērgļi un stiprāki nekā lauvas.
Saul and Jonathan were lovely and pleasant in their lives, and in their death they were not divided: they were swifter than eagles, they were stronger than lions.
24 Israēla meitas, raudiet par Saulu, kas jūs krāšņi tērpa ar purpuru, kas jūsu drēbes pušķoja ar zelta glītumiem.
You daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you in scarlet, with other delights, who put on ornaments of gold on your apparel.
25 Kā tie varenie ir krituši kara vidū! Jonatāns ir nokauts uz taviem kalniem.
How are the mighty fallen in the middle of the battle! O Jonathan, you were slain in your high places.
26 Man ir žēl pēc tevis, mans brāli Jonatān! Tu man biji ļoti mīļš, tava mīlestība man bija saldāka, nekā sievas mīlestība.
I am distressed for you, my brother Jonathan: very pleasant have you been to me: your love to me was wonderful, passing the love of women.
27 Kā tie varenie krituši un kara ieroči gājuši bojā!
How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished!
