Pirmā Samuela 20
1 Tad Dāvids bēga no Najotas pie Rāmatas, un nāca un sacīja Jonatāna priekšā: ko es esmu darījis, kas ir mans noziegums un kas ir mani grēki tava tēva priekšā, ka viņš manu dzīvību meklē?
And David fled from Naioth in Ramah, and came and said before Jonathan, What have I done? What is my iniquity, and what is my sin before thy father, that he seeks my life?
2 Tad tas uz viņu sacīja: lai Dievs pasargā, tu nemirsi! Redzi, mans tēvs nedara ne lielu ne mazu lietu, ko viņš man papriekš nesacītu, kādēļ tad mans tēvs šo lietu priekš manis būtu apslēpis? Tas tā nav.
And he said to him, Far from it. Thou shall not die. Behold, my father does nothing either great or small, but that he discloses it to me, and why should my father hide this thing from me? It is not so.
3 Tad Dāvids turklāt vēl zvērēja un sacīja: tavs tēvs labi zina, ka es žēlastību esmu atradis priekš tavām acīm, tāpēc viņš domā, lai Jonatāns no tā nekā nezina, ka tas par to nenoskumstas. Bet patiesi, tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo un tava dvēsele dzīvo, viens solis vien ir starp mani un nāvi.
And David swore moreover, and said, Thy father knows well that I have found favor in thine eyes, and he says, Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved. But truly as Jehovah lives, and as thy soul lives, there is but a step between me and death.
4 Un Jonatāns sacīja uz Dāvidu: ko tava dvēsele vēlās, to es tev darīšu.
Then Jonathan said to David, Whatever thy soul desires, I will even do it for thee.
5 Un Dāvids sacīja uz Jonatānu: redzi, rītu ir jauns mēnesis, un man būtu ar ķēniņu pie galda jāsēž un jāēd, tad nu palaid mani, ka es laukā apslēpjos līdz trešās dienas vakaram.
And David said to Jonathan, Behold, tomorrow is the new moon, and I should not fail to sit with the king to eat. But let me go that I may hide myself in the field to the third day at evening.
6 Ja tavs tēvs pēc manis vaicās, tad saki: Dāvids mani lūgdams lūdzis, ka varētu steigšus noiet uz savu pilsētu Bētlemi, jo tur ir tas gadskārtīgais upuris visiem tiem radiem.
If thy father misses me at all, then say, David earnestly asked leave of me that he might run to Bethlehem his city, for it is the yearly sacrifice there for all the family.
7 Ja nu viņš tā sacīs: tas ir labi, - tad tavam kalpam būs miers. Bet ja viņš par to apskaistās, tad tu vari zināt, ka viņš ļaunu apņēmies.
If he says thus, It is well. Thy servant shall have peace. But if he is angry, then know that evil is determined by him.
8 Dari tad žēlastību pie sava kalpa, jo tu ar savu kalpu Tā Kunga derību esi derējis. Bet ja kāds noziegums ir pie manis, tad nokauj tu mani, kāpēc tu mani vēl gribētu vest pie sava tēva?
Therefore deal kindly with thy servant, for thou have brought thy servant into a covenant of Jehovah with thee. But if there be in me iniquity, kill me thyself, for why should thou bring me to thy father?
9 Tad Jonatāns sacīja: lai tas ne mūžam tev nenotiek, ja es tiešām atzītu, ka mans tēvs būtu apņēmies tev ļaunu darīt, ka es tev to nesacītu!
And Jonathan said, Far be it from thee, for if I should at all know that evil were determined by my father to come upon thee, then would I not tell it to thee?
10 Tad Dāvids sacīja uz Jonatānu: kas man to sacīs, kad tavs tēvs tev bargi atbildēs?
Then David said to Jonathan, Who shall tell me if perchance thy father answers thee roughly?
11 Tad Jonatāns sacīja uz Dāvidu: nāc, ejam laukā. Un tie izgāja abi divi uz lauku.
And Jonathan said to David, Come, and let us go out into the field. And they went out both of them into the field.
12 Tad Jonatāns sacīja uz Dāvidu: Kungs, Israēla Dievs, ja es no sava tēva būšu izklausījis ap šo laiku rītu vai parītu, un redzi, kad tas ir labi priekš Dāvida, un es tad pie tevis nesūtu un tev no tā ziņas nedodu,
And Jonathan said to David, Jehovah, the God of Israel-when I have sounded my father about this time tomorrow, or the third day, behold, if there be good toward David, shall I not then send to thee, and disclose it to thee?
13 Tad lai Tas Kungs Jonatānam šā un tā dara. Bet ja mans tēvs ko ļaunu pret tevi ir apņēmies, tad es tev par to arī ziņu došu, un tevi palaidīšu, ka tu ar mieru vari aiziet. Un lai tad Tas Kungs ir ar tevi, kā Viņš ir bijis ar manu tēvu.
Jehovah do so to Jonathan, and more also, should it please my father to do thee evil, if I not disclose it to thee, and send thee away that thou may go in peace. And Jehovah be with thee as he has been with my father.
14 Un kaut tu, kamēr es vēl dzīvoju, kaut tu pie manis parādītu Tā Kunga žēlastību,
And thou shall not only show me the loving kindness of Jehovah, while I yet live, that I not die,
15 Un kad es mirstu, ne mūžam neatrautu savu žēlastību no mana nama, arī tad ne, kad Tas Kungs Dāvida ienaidniekus visus no zemes izdeldēs.
but also thou shall not cut off thy kindness from my house forever. No, not when Jehovah has cut off the enemies of David every one from the face of the earth.
16 Tā Jonatāns derēja derību ar Dāvida namu. Un Tas Kungs ir piemeklējis Dāvida ienaidniekus.
So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying, And Jehovah will require it at the hand of David's enemies.
17 Un Jonatāns Dāvidu vēl reiz apzvērināja viņu mīlēdams, jo tas viņu mīlēja, itin kā savu dvēseli.
And Jonathan caused David to swear again, for the love that he had to him. For he loved him as he loved his own soul.
18 Un Jonatāns uz viņu sacīja: rītu ir jauns mēnesis, tad pēc tevis vaicās, jo tava vieta, kur tu sēdi, būs tukša.
Then Jonathan said to him, Tomorrow is the new moon, and thou will be missed because thy seat will be empty.
19 Bet trešā dienā nonāc drīz un ej uz to vietu, kur tu biji paslēpies darba dienā, un apsēdies pie Azel akmens.
And when thou have stayed three days, thou shall go down quickly, and come to the place where thou hid thyself when the business was in hand, and shall remain by the stone Ezel.
20 Tad es trīs bultas šaušu tam sānis, tā kā mērķī šaudams.
And I will shoot three arrows on the side of it, as though I shot at a mark.
21 Un redzi, es sūtīšu puisi (sacīdams): ej, meklē tās bultas. Ja es uz to puisi sacīšu: redzi, tās bultas ir šaipus tevis, dabū tās, - tad nāc, jo tev ir miers un nav nekas, tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo.
And, behold, I will send the lad, saying, Go, find the arrows. If I say to the lad, Behold, the arrows are on this side of thee, take them, and come, for there is peace to thee and no hurt, as Jehovah lives.
22 Bet ja es tā uz to puisi sacīšu: redzi, tās bultas ir tavā priekšā viņā pusē, - tad ej, jo Tas Kungs tev ir licis iet.
But if I say thus to the boy, Behold, the arrows are beyond thee, go thy way, for Jehovah has sent thee away.
23 Bet par to lietu, par ko es un tu esam runājuši, redzi, lai Tas Kungs ir starp mani un tevi mūžīgi.
And concerning the matter which thou and I have spoken of, behold, Jehovah is between thee and me forever.
24 Tad Dāvids paslēpās laukā, un kad jauns mēnesis bija, tad ķēniņš apsēdās pie galda ēst.
So David hid himself in the field. And when the new moon came, the king sat down to eat food.
25 Kad nu ķēniņš apsēdās savā vietā, to brīdi kā ar vienu pie sienas, tad Jonatāns nāca, un Abners apsēdās Saulam sānis, bet Dāvida vieta palika tukša.
And the king sat upon his seat, as at other times, even upon the seat by the wall, and Jonathan stood up, and Abner sat by Saul's side, but David's place was empty.
26 Bet Sauls nesacīja tai dienā nekā, jo viņš domāja: tam kas ir noticis, ka tas nav šķīsts, - viņš nebūs šķīsts.
Nevertheless Saul spoke nothing that day, for he thought, Something has befallen him. He is not clean. Surely he is not clean.
27 Bet otrā jauna mēneša dienā Dāvida vieta palika atkal tukša. Tad Sauls sacīja uz savu dēlu Jonatānu: kāpēc Isajus dēls pie galda nav nācis nedz vakar, nedz šodien?
And it came to pass on the morrow after the new moon, which was the second day, that David's place was empty. And Saul said to Jonathan his son, Why has the son of Jesse not come in to the food, neither yesterday, nor today?
28 Tad Jonatāns Saulam atbildēja: Dāvids mani lūgdams lūdzis, ka varētu iet uz Bētlemi,
And Jonathan answered Saul, David earnestly asked leave of me to go to Bethlehem.
29 Un sacīja: atlaid mani lūdzams, jo mūsu radiem ir upuris tai pilsētā, un mans brālis man pats to ir pavēlējis; nu tad, ja es žēlastību esmu atradis tavās acīs, tad dod man lūdzams vaļu, savus brāļus apmeklēt. Tādēļ viņš nav nācis pie ķēniņa galda.
And he said, Let me go, I pray thee, for our family has a sacrifice in the city, and my brother, he has commanded me. And now, if I have found favor in thine eyes, let me get away, I pray thee, and see my brothers. Therefore he has not come to the king's table.
30 Tad Sauls apskaitās pret Jonatānu un uz to sacīja: tu netiklais stūrgalvi, vai es nezinu, ka tu to Isajus dēlu esi izredzējis sev par kaunu un tavai netiklai mātei par kaunu?
Then Saul's anger was kindled against Jonathan, and he said to him, Thou son of a perverse rebellious woman, do I not know that thou have chosen the son of Jesse to thine own shame, and to the shame of thy mother's nakedness?
31 Jo cik ilgi Isajus dēls virs zemes dzīvos, ne tu, nedz tava valstība nepastāvēs. Tad nu nosūti un dabū man viņu šurp, jo viņam jāmirst.
For as long as the son of Jesse lives upon the ground, thou shall not be established, nor thy kingdom. Therefore now send and fetch him to me, for he shall surely die.
32 Tad Jonatāns savam tēvam Saulam atbildēja un uz to sacīja: kāpēc tam būs mirt? Ko viņš ir darījis?
And Jonathan answered Saul his father, and said to him, Why should he be put to death? What has he done?
33 Tad Sauls meta ar šķēpu pēc viņa, ka to nodurtu. Un Jonatāns nomanīja, ka viņa tēvs pilnīgi bija apņēmies, Dāvidu nokaut.
And Saul cast his spear at him to smite him. By this Jonathan knew that it was determined by his father to put David to death.
34 Tad Jonatāns cēlās no galda ar dusmām un neēda tai otrā jauna mēneša dienā nekā, jo viņam sirds ēdās par Dāvidu, tāpēc ka viņa tēvs to bija negodā licis.
So Jonathan arose from the table in fierce anger, and ate no food the second day of the month, for he was grieved for David because his father had done him shame.
35 Un rītā Jonatāns izgāja laukā, kur ar Dāvidu bija norunāts, un mazs zēns bija viņam līdz.
And it came to pass in the morning, that Jonathan went out into the field at the time appointed with David, and a little lad with him.
36 Un viņš sacīja uz savu puisi: teci, meklē jel tās bultas, ko es šaušu. Tad tas puisis tecēja, un viņš šāva vienu bultu pāri pār to.
And he said to his lad, Run, now find the arrows which I shoot. And as the lad ran, he shot an arrow beyond him.
37 Kad nu tas puisis uz to vietu nāca, kur Jonatāns to bultu bija aizšāvis, tad Jonatāns tam puisim sauca pakaļ un sacīja: vai tā bulta nav tavā priekšā viņā pusē?
And when the lad was come to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan cried after the lad, and said, Is not the arrow beyond thee?
38 Atkal Jonatāns tam puisim sauca pakaļ: steidzies čakli, nestāvi! Tad tas puisis Jonatānam lasīja tās bultas un nāca atkal pie sava kunga.
And Jonathan cried after the lad, Make speed, haste, stay not. And Jonathan's lad gathered up the arrows, and came to his master.
39 Bet tas puisis nezināja nekā; Jonatāns tikai un Dāvids zināja to lietu.
But the lad knew nothing. Only Jonathan and David knew the matter.
40 Un Jonatāns deva tos rīkus savam puisim, un uz to sacīja: ej, nes tos pilsētā.
And Jonathan gave his weapons to his lad, and said to him, Go, carry them to the city.
41 Tā tas puisis nogāja, un Dāvids cēlās no dienasvidus puses un metās uz savu vaigu pie zemes un klanījās trīs reiz', un tie skūpstījās un raudāja abi divi, bet Dāvids jo stipri.
And as soon as the lad was gone, David arose out of a place toward the South, and fell on his face to the ground, and bowed himself three times. And they kissed each other, and wept one with another until David surpassed him.
42 Tad Jonatāns sacīja uz Dāvidu: ej ar mieru! Ko mēs abi iekš Tā Kunga vārda esam zvērējuši sacīdami: Tas Kungs lai ir starp mani un tevi, un starp manu dzimumu un tavu dzimumu, - tas lai tā paliek mūžīgi. Un viņš cēlās un aizgāja, un Jonatāns nāca pilsētā.
And Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, inasmuch as we have sworn both of us in the name of Jehovah, saying, Jehovah shall be between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed, forever. And he arose and departed, and Jonathan went into the city.
