Pirmā Samuela 25

1 Un Samuēls nomira un viss Israēls sapulcējās un žēlojās par to un to apraka viņa namā Rāmatā.

And Samuel died, and all Israel was gathered together, and they mourned for him, and buried him in his house in Ramatha. And David rose and went down into the wilderness of Pharan.

2 Tad Dāvids nogāja uz Pārana tuksnesi. Un viens vīrs bija Maonā, kam saimniecība bija Karmelī; un tas vīrs bija ļoti bagāts, un tam bija trīstūkstoš avis un tūkstoš kazas. Un tas bija Karmelī, savas avis cirpt.

Now there was a certain man in the wilderness of Maon, and his possessions were in Carmel, and the man was very great: and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and it happened that he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.

3 Un tam vīram bija vārds Nābals, un viņa sievai bija vārds Abigaīle, un tā sieva bija ļoti gudra padomā un skaista augumā. Bet tas vīrs bija pikts un ļauns savos darbos un no Kāleba bērniem.

Now the name of the man was Nabal: and the name of his wife was Abigail. And she was a prudent and very comely woman, but her husband was churlish, and very bad and ill natured: and he was of the house of Caleb.

4 Kad nu Dāvids tuksnesī dzirdēja, ka Nābals savas avis cirpa,

And when David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep,

5 Tad viņš sūtīja desmit puišus un sacīja tiem puišiem: ejat uz Karmeli un ejat pie Nābala un sveicinājiet viņu no manas puses,

He sent ten young men, and said to them: Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and salute him in my name with peace.

6 Un sakāt: Dievs palīdz, miers lai ir ar tevi un miers ar tavu namu un miers ar visu, kas tev pieder!

And you shall say: Peace be to my brethren, and to thee, and peace to thy house, and peace to all that thou hast.

7 Un nu es esmu dzirdējis, ka tev ir avju cirpēji. Tad nu tavi gani pie mums ir bijuši, mēs tiem nekā ļauna neesam darījuši, tiem arī nekas nav zudis visu to laiku, kamēr tie Karmelī bijuši.

I heard that thy shepherds that were with us in the desert were shearing: we never molested them, neither was there ought missing to them of the flock at any time, all the while they were with us in Carmel.

8 Vaicā savus puišus, tad tie tev to sacīs. Lai tad tie jaunekļi žēlastību atrod priekš tavām acīm, jo mēs labā dienā esam atnākuši. Dod jel saviem kalpiem un savam dēlam Dāvidam, kas tev pie rokas.

Ask thy servants, and they will tell thee. Now therefore let thy servants find favour in thy eyes: for we are come in a good day, whatsoever thy hand shall find give to thy servants, and to thy son David.

9 Kad nu Dāvida puiši bija nākuši un šos vārdus uz Nābalu no Dāvida puses runājuši, tad tie palika klusu.

And when David’s servants came, they spoke to Nabal all these words in David’s name: and then held their peace.

10 Bet Nābals atbildēja Dāvida kalpiem un sacīja: kas tas tāds Dāvids un kas tas tāds Isajus dēls? Šinī laikā ir daudz kalpu, kas no saviem kungiem aizbēg.

But Nabal answering the servants of David, said: Who is David? and what is the son of Isai? servants are multiplied now a days who flee from their masters.

11 Vai tad es savu maizi un ūdeni un savus lopus ņemšu, ko es priekš saviem cirpējiem esmu kāvis, un došu vīriem, ko es nepazīstu, no kurienes tie ir?

Shall I then take my bread, and my water, and the flesh of my cattle, which I have killed for my shearers, and give to men whom I know not whence they are?

12 Tad Dāvida puiši griezās atpakaļ uz savu ceļu un gāja atpakaļ un nāca un atsacīja viņam visus šos vārdus.

So the servants of David went back their way, and returning came and told him all the words that he said.

13 Tad Dāvids sacīja uz saviem vīriem: apjoziet ikviens savu zobenu. Tad ikviens apjoza savu zobenu. Un Dāvids apjoza arīdzan savu zobenu, un tie devās uz augšu Dāvidam pakaļ pie četrsimt vīru, un divsimt palika pie rīkiem.

Then David said to his young men: Let every man gird on his sword. And they girded on every man his sword. And David also girded on his sword: and there followed David about four hundred men: and two hundred remained with the baggage.

14 Bet Abigaīlei, Nābala sievai, viens no tiem puišiem to stāstīja un sacīja: redzi, Dāvids ir vēstnešus sūtījis no tuksneša un mūsu kungu licis sveicināt, bet viņš tos izbāra.

But one of the servants told Abigail the wife of Nabal, saying: Behold David sent messengers out of the wilderness, to salute our master: and he rejected them.

15 Bet tie vīri mums ir bijuši ļoti labi, un mums nekā ļauna nav darījuši un mums nekas nav zudis visu to laiku, kad mēs pie tiem mituši, kad bijām laukā.

These men were very good to us, and gave us no trouble: neither did we ever lose any thing all the time that we conversed with them in the desert.

16 Tie mums bijuši par mūri gan naktīm, gan dienām, visu to laiku, kad mēs pie tiem bijuši, avis ganīdami.

They were a wall unto us both by night and day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.

17 Un nu ņem vērā un raugi, ko tu dari, jo nelaime būs gatava pret mūsu kungu un pret visu viņa namu, un tas ir netikls vīrs, ka viņam nekā nevar sacīt.

Wherefore consider, and think what thou hast to do: for evil is determined against thy husband, and against thy house, and he is a son of Belial, so that no man can speak to him.

18 Tad Abigaīle steidzās un ņēma divsimt maizes un divus ādas traukus ar vīnu un piecas kautas avis un piecus pūrus miltu un simts rozīņu raušu un divsimt vīģu raušu, un to krāva uz ēzeļiem.

Then Abigail made haste and took two hundred loaves, and two vessels of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched corn, and a hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of dry figs, and laid them upon asses:

19 Un tā sacīja uz saviem puišiem: noejat manā priekšā, redzi, es būšu aiz jums. Bet savam vīram Nābalam, viņa par to tam nedeva ziņas.

And she said to her servants: Go before me: behold I will follow after you: but she told not her husband Nabal.

20 Kad nu viņa uz ēzeļa jādama nonāca pakalnā, meža ēnā, redzi, tad Dāvids ar saviem vīriem nonāca viņai pretī, un viņa tos sastapa.

And when she had gotten upon an ass, and was coming down to the foot of the mountain, David and his men came down over against her, and she met them.

21 Bet Dāvids bija sacījis: tiešām, es esmu velti sargājis visu, kas šim pieder tuksnesī, un tam nekas nav zudis no tā, kas viņam bija, bet viņš man maksā ļaunu par labu.

And David said: Truly in vain have I kept all that belonged to this man in the wilderness, and nothing was lost of all that pertained unto him: and he hath returned me evil for good.

22 Lai Dievs Dāvida ienaidniekiem šā un tā dara, ja es no visa, kas viņam pieder, līdz rītam vienu atlicināju, kas mīž pie sienas.

May God do so and so, and add more to the foes of David, if I leave of all that belong to him till the morning, any that pisseth against the wall.

23 Kad nu Abigaīle Dāvidu redzēja, tad viņa steidzās un nokāpa no ēzeļa un Dāvida priekšā krita uz savu vaigu un metās pie zemes.

And when Abigail saw David she made haste and lighted off the ass, and fell before David, on her face, and adored upon the ground.

24 Un tā krita viņam pie kājām un sacīja: ak mans kungs, pielīdzini man, man to noziegumu, un lai jel tava kalpone priekš tavām ausīm runā, un klausi tavas kalpones vārdus!

And she fell at his feet, and said: Upon me let this iniquity be, my lord: let thy handmaid speak, I beseech thee, in thy ears: and hear the words of thy servant.

25 Mans kungs, nedusmojies, lūdzams, par šo netiklo vīru, par Nābalu, jo viņš ir tāds, kā viņa vārds skan; Nābals (ģeķis) viņa vārds un ģeķība ir pie viņa, un es, tava kalpone, sava kunga puišus neesmu redzējusi, ko tu esi sūtījis.

Let not my lord the king, I pray, regard this naughty man Nabal: for according to his name, he is a fool, and folly is with him: but I thy handmaid did not see thy servants, my lord, whom thou sentest.

26 Nu tad, mans kungs, tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvs un tava dvēsele dzīva, Tas Kungs tevi ir noturējis, ka tu neesi nācis asinsgrēkā un neesi atriebies ar savu roku, un nu, kā Nābals, tā lai top tavi ienaidnieki un tie, kas pret manu kungu ļaunu domā.

Now therefore, my lord, the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, who hath withholden thee from coming to blood, and hath saved thy hand to thee: and now let thy enemies be as Nabal, and all they that seek evil to my lord.

27 Un šī nu ir tā svētība, ko tava kalpone savam kungam ir atnesusi; lai to dod tiem puišiem, kas manam kungam staigā pakaļ.

Wherefore receive this blessing, which thy handmaid hath brought to thee, my lord: and give it to the young men that follow thee, my lord.

28 Piedod, lūdzams, tavai kalponei to pārkāpumu; jo Tas Kungs tiešām manam kungam dos pastāvīgu namu, tāpēc ka mans kungs karo Tā Kunga karu, un nekāds ļaunums tevi neaizņems ne mūžam.

Forgive the iniquity of thy handmaid: for the Lord will surely make for my lord a faithful house, because thou, my lord, fightest the battles of the Lord: let not evil therefore be found in thee all the days of thy life.

29 Un kad kāds cilvēks pret tevi celsies, tevi vajāt un tavu dvēseli meklēt, tad mana kunga dvēsele būs iesieta tai dzīvo (dvēseļu) kūlītī pie Tā Kunga, tava Dieva, bet tavu ienaidnieku dvēsele taps kā no lingas izlingota.

For if a man at any time shall rise, and persecute thee, and seek thy life, the soul of my lord shall be kept, as in the bundle of the living, with the Lord thy God: but the souls of thy enemies shall be whirled, as with the violence and whirling of a sling.

30 Kad nu Tas Kungs manam kungam visu to labu darīs, ko Viņš par tevi runājis, un tevi cels par valdnieku pār Israēli,

And when the Lord shall have done to thee, my lord, all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have made thee prince over Israel,

31 Tad manam kungam nebūs šis grēks un šis sirds grūtums, ka tu velti būtu asinis izlējis, un ka mans kungs pats sev būtu palīdzējies; un kad Tas Kungs manam kungam labu darīs, tad tu pieminēsi savu kalponi.

This shall not be an occasion of grief to thee, and a scruple of heart to my lord, that thou hast shed innocent blood, or hast revenged thyself: and when the Lord shall have done well by my lord, thou shalt remember thy handmaid.

32 Tad Dāvids sacīja uz Abigaīli: slavēts lai ir Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs, kas tevi šodien man pretī sūtījis.

And David said to Abigail: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who sent thee this day to meet me, and blessed be thy speech:

33 Un slavēts lai ir tavs padoms, un svētīta esi tu pati, ka tu man šodien noturējusi, ka neesmu nācis asinsgrēkā, un ka ar savu roku neesmu atriebies.

And blessed be thou, who hast kept me today, from coming to blood, and revenging me with my own hand.

34 Jo patiesi, tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs, dzīvs, kas mani noturējis tev ļaunu darīt; ja tu nebūtu steigusies un man pretī nākusi, tad Nābalam nebūtu atlicis līdz rīta gaismai neviens, kas mīž pie sienas.

Otherwise as the Lord liveth the God of Israel, who hath withholden me from doing thee any evil: if thou hadst not quickly come to meet me, there had not been left to Nabal by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.

35 Tad Dāvids ņēma no viņas rokas, ko viņa tam bija atvedusi, un uz to sacīja: ej ar mieru atkal savās mājās! Redz, es tavu balsi esmu klausījis un tavu lūgšanu pieņēmis.

And David received at her hand all that she had brought him, and said to her: Go in peace into thy house, behold I have heard thy voice, and have honoured thy face.

36 Kad nu Abigaīle pie Nābala nāca, redzi, tad tam bija dzīres savā namā, tāpat kā ķēniņa dzīres, un Nābala sirds priecājās pie sevis, un viņš bija ļoti piedzēries. Bet viņa tam ne vārda nesacīja, ne maza, ne liela, līdz rīta gaismai.

And Abigail came to Nabal: and behold he had a feast in his house, like the feast of a king, and Nabal’s heart was merry: for he was very drunk: and she told him nothing less or more until morning.

37 Un notikās rītā, kad vīns no Nābala bija izgājis, tad viņa sieva tam visu to stāstīja. Tad viņa sirds iekš viņa pamira, un viņš kļuva kā akmens.

But early in the morning when Nabal had digested his wine, his wife told him these words, and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.

38 Un pēc kādām desmit dienām Tas Kungs sita Nābalu, ka tas nomira.

And after ten days had passed, the Lord struck Nabal, and he died.

39 Kad Dāvids dzirdēja, Nābalu esam mirušu, tad viņš sacīja: slavēts ir Tas Kungs, kas manu apsmieklu pie Nābala atriebis un Savu kalpu noturējis no ļauna, un ka Tas Kungs Nābalam to ļaunu uz viņa galvu maksājis. Un Dāvids nosūtīja un runāja uz Abigaīli, ka viņš to ņemtu par sievu.

And when David had heard that Nabal was dead, he said: Blessed be the Lord, who hath judged the cause of my reproach at the hand of Nabal, and hath kept his servant from evil, and the Lord hath returned the wickedness of Nabal upon his head. Then David sent and treated with Abigail, that he might take her to himself for a wife.

40 Tad Dāvida kalpi nāca pie Abigaīles uz Karmeli un runāja uz to un sacīja: Dāvids mūs pie tevis ir sūtījis, ka viņš tevi ņemtu sev par sievu.

And David’s servants came to Abigail to Carmel, and spoke to her, saying: David hath sent us to thee, to take thee to himself for a wife.

41 Tad viņa cēlās un metās uz savu vaigu pie zemes un sacīja: redzi, še ir tava kalpone, ka tā kalpo un mazgā sava kunga kalpu kājas.

And she arose and bowed herself down with her face to the earth, and said: Behold, let thy servant be a handmaid, to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.

42 Un Abigaīle steidzās un cēlās un jāja uz ēzeļa ar savām piecām jaunām meitām, kas viņai staigāja pakaļ, un tā gāja Dāvida vēstnešiem pakaļ un viņam palika par sievu.

And Abigail arose, and made haste, and got upon an ass, and five damsels went with her, her waiting maids, and she followed the messengers of David, and became his wife.

43 Un Dāvids ņēma arī Aķinoamu no Jezreēles, un tā šās abas viņam bija par sievām.

Moreover David took also Achinoam of Jezrahel: and they were both of them his wives.

44 Jo Sauls savu meitu Mikali, Dāvida sievu, bija devis Paltam, Laīsa dēlam, kas bija no Gallim.

But Saul gave Michol his daughter, David’s wife, to Phalti, the son of Lais, who was of Gallium.
