< Pirmā Samuela 30 >

1 Un notikās, kad Dāvids ar saviem vīriem trešā dienā nāca uz Ciklagu, tad Amalekieši pret dienvidiem un Ciklagā bija ielauzušies un Ciklagu kāvuši un ar uguni sadedzinājuši.
Three days later, when David and his men arrived at Ziklag, [they discovered that] men of the Amalek people-group had raided Ziklag and [towns in] the southern part of Judah. They had destroyed Ziklag and burned down all the buildings.
2 Un tās sievas no turienes bija aizveduši, un mazus un lielus, bet nevienu nebija nokāvuši, bet aizveduši un gājuši savu ceļu.
They had captured the women [and the children] and everyone else, and had taken them away. But they had not killed anyone.
3 Un Dāvids ar saviem vīriem nāca pie tās pilsētas, un redzi, tā bija sadedzināta ar uguni, un viņu sievas un viņu dēli un viņu meitas bija aizvesti.
When David and his men came to Ziklag, they saw that the town had been burned, and that their wives and sons and daughters had been captured and taken away.
4 Tad Dāvids ar tiem vīriem, kas pie viņa bija, pacēla savu balsi un raudāja, kamēr tiem vairs spēka nebija raudāt.
David and his men cried loudly, until [they were so weak that] they could not cry [any more].
5 Arī Dāvida abas sievas, Aķinoama, tā Jezreēliete, un Abigaīle, Nābala sieva, tā Karmeliete, bija aizvestas.
David’s two wives, Ahinoam and Abigail, had also been taken away.
6 Un Dāvidam bija ļoti bail, jo tie ļaudis to gribēja akmeņiem nomētāt, jo visiem ļaudīm sirds ēdās, ikvienam par saviem dēliem un par savām meitām. Bet Dāvids stiprinājās iekš Tā Kunga, sava Dieva.
David’s men were threatening to [kill him by] throwing stones at him, because they were very angry because their sons and daughters [had been taken away]. David was very distressed, but Yahweh his God gave him strength.
7 Un Dāvids sacīja uz priesteri Abjataru, Aķimeleka dēlu: dod jel to efodu šurp! Un Abjatars nesa to efodu pie Dāvida.
David [did not know what to do, so he] said to Abiathar the priest, “Bring to me the sacred vest.” So Abiathar brought it,
8 Tad Dāvids vaicāja To Kungu sacīdams: vai man būs tam pulkam pakaļ dzīties, vai es tos panākšu? Un Viņš tam sacīja: dzenies, tu tos panāksi un patiesi atpestīsi.
and David asked Yahweh, “Should I [and my men] pursue the men [who took our families]? Will we [be able to] catch up to them?” Yahweh answered [by means of the stones in Abiathar’s sacred pouch], “Yes, pursue them. You will catch up to them, and you will be able to rescue [your families].”
9 Tad Dāvids nogāja ar tiem sešsimt vīriem, kas pie viņa bija, un kad tie nāca pie Bezoras upes, tad tur citi apstājās.
So David and the 600 men who were with him left, and they came to the Besor Ravine. Some of his men stayed there [with some of their supplies].
10 Un Dāvids tiem dzinās pakaļ ar četrsimt vīriem, bet divsimt vīri tur palika stāvot, kas bija piekusuši, ka nevarēja iet pār Bezoras upi.
David and 400 men continued to pursue [the men who captured their families]. The other 200 men stayed there at the ravine, because they were so exhausted that they could not cross the ravine.
11 Un tie atrada vienu Ēģiptieti laukā, to tie atveda pie Dāvida, un deva tam maizes, un viņš ēda, un deva tam ūdeni dzert,
[As David and the 400 men were going], they saw a man from Egypt in a field; so they took him to David. They gave the man some water to drink and some food to eat.
12 Un deva tam vienu šķēli vīģu raušu un divus rozīņu raušus. Un viņš ēda, un viņa gars atkal atgriezās pie viņa, jo viņš nebija maizes ēdis, nedz ūdens dzēris trīs dienas un trīs naktis.
They also gave him a piece of fig cake and two clusters/packs of raisins. The man had not had anything to eat or drink for three days and nights, but [after he ate and drank] he felt refreshed.
13 Tad Dāvids uz to sacīja: kas tu esi un no kurienes tu esi? Tad tas sacīja: esmu ēģiptiešu puisis, viena Amalekieša kalps, un mans kungs mani atstājis, tāpēc ka es priekš trim dienām esmu slims palicis.
David asked him, “Who is your master? And where do you come from?” He replied, “I am from Egypt. I am a slave of a man from the Amalek people-group. Three days ago my master left me here, because I was sick [and I was not able to go with them].
14 Mēs bijām ielauzušies pret dienasvidu pie Krietiem un uz Jūdu un pret dienasvidu pie Kāleba, un Ciklagu ar uguni esam sadedzinājuši.
We had raided the southern part of Judah where the Kereth people-group live, and some other towns in Judah, and the area south [of Hebron city] where the descendants of Caleb live. We also burned Ziklag [town].”
15 Tad Dāvids uz to sacīja: vai tu gribi mani novest pie šā pulka? Un tas sacīja: zvērē man pie Dieva, ka tu mani negribi nokaut nedz nodot mana kunga rokā, tad es tevi pie šā pulka novedīšu.
David asked him, “Can you lead us to this group of raiders?” He replied, “Yes, [I will do that] if you ask God to listen while you promise that you will not kill me or give me back to my master. If you promise that, I will take you to them.”
16 Un viņš to noveda. Un redzi, tie gulēja izklīduši pa visu klajumu, ēda un dzēra un dejoja par visu to lielo laupījumu, ko tie bija paņēmuši no Fīlistu un Jūdu zemes.
[David agreed to do that, ] so the man from Egypt led David [and his men] to where the men from the Amalek people-group were. Those men were lying on the ground, eating and drinking and celebrating because of having captured many things from the Philistia and Judah areas.
17 Un Dāvids tos kāva no rīta gaismas līdz vakaram otrai dienai sākot, un neviens no tiem neizspruka, kā vien četrsimt jauni vīri, kas uz kamieļiem jāšus aizbēga.
David [and his men] fought against them from sunset that day until the evening of the following day. Four hundred of them escaped and rode away on camels, but none of the others escaped.
18 Tā Dāvids izglāba visu, ko Amalekieši bija paņēmuši, un Dāvids arī izglāba savas abas sievas.
David rescued his two wives, and he and his men got back everything else that the men of the Amalek people-group had taken.
19 Un no tiem netrūka neviena, ne maza ne liela, ne dēla ne meitas, ne no tā laupījuma, ne no visa, ko tie tiem bija paņēmuši, - visu Dāvids veda atpakaļ.
Nothing was missing. They took all their people back [to Ziklag]—young people and old people, [their wives], their sons and their daughters. They also recovered all the other things that the men of the Amalek people-group had taken from Ziklag.
20 Un Dāvids ņēma visas avis un vēršus, un tie šos lopus dzina Dāvida priekšā un sacīja: šis ir Dāvida laupījums.
They took with them the sheep and cattle that had been captured, and his men caused those animals to go in front of them, saying, “These are animals that we captured in the battle; they belong to David!”
21 Kad nu Dāvids pie tiem divsimt vīriem nāca, kas bija piekusuši, ka Dāvidam nevarēja iet pakaļ, un tāpēc pie Bezoras upes bija pamesti, tad tie Dāvidam un tiem ļaudīm, kas pie viņa bija, izgāja pretī. Un Dāvids piestājās pie tiem ļaudīm un vaicāja pēc viņu labklāšanās.
David and his men got back to where the other 200 men were waiting, the men who did not go with David because they were very exhausted. They had stayed at Besor Ravine. [When they saw David and his men coming], they went out to greet them. And David [greeted them and] said to them, “I hope that things are going well with you!”
22 Tad visi netiklie un negantie ļaudis to vīru starpā, kas ar Dāvidu bija gājuši, atbildēja un sacīja: tāpēc ka tie mums nav nākuši līdz, tad mēs tiem arī nekā nedosim no tā laupījuma, ko esam glābuši, kā vien ikkatram savu sievu un savas bērnus; tos lai tie ņem un iet.
But some of the men who had gone with David, men who were evil and troublemakers, said, “These 200 men did not go with us. So we should not give to them any of the things that we recovered/captured. Each of them should take only his wife and children and go [back to their homes].”
23 Bet Dāvids sacīja: tā jums, mani brāļi, nebūs darīt ar to, ko Tas Kungs mums ir devis, jo Viņš mūs ir pasargājis, un to pulku, kas pret mums nācis, ir devis mūsu rokā.
David replied, “No, my fellow Israelis, it would not be right to divide up like that the things that Yahweh has allowed us to capture. Yahweh has protected us and enabled us to defeat the enemies who attacked our town.
24 Kas jūs šinī lietā varētu klausīt? Jo kāda daļa ir tiem, kas gājuši kauties, tāda pat daļa būs arī šiem, kas pie rīkiem palikuši, tiem kopā būs dalīties.
(Who will pay attention to you if you say things like that?/No one will pay attention to you if you say things like that.) [RHQ] The men who stayed here with our supplies will get the same amount that the men who went into the battle will get. They will all receive the same amount.”
25 Un tas no tās dienas nu joprojām tā ir palicis, jo viņš to par likumu un tiesu ir iecēlis iekš Israēla līdz šai dienai.
David made that to be a law [DOU] for the Israeli people, and that is still a law in Israel.
26 Kad nu Dāvids uz Ciklagu nāca, tad viņš no tā laupījuma Jūda vecajiem, saviem draugiem, sūtīja un sacīja: redz, še jums ir dāvanas no Tā Kunga ienaidnieku laupījuma.
When David [and all the others] arrived in Ziklag, David sent to his friends who were leaders in Judah some of the things that they had captured from the Amalek people-group. He said to them, “Here is a present for you. These are things that we took from Yahweh’s enemies.”
27 (Proti) tiem Bētelē un tiem Rāmatā pret dienasvidu un tiem Jatirā
[Here is a list of the cities and towns to whose leaders David sent gifts: ] Bethel, Ramoth in the southern part of Judah, Jattir,
28 Un tiem Aroērā un tiem Sipmotā un Estemoā
Aroer, Siphmoth, Eshtemoa,
29 Un tiem Rakalā un tiem, kas bija Jerameēliešu pilsētās, un tiem, kas Keniešu pilsētās dzīvoja,
Racal, the cities where the descendants of Jehrameel lived and the cities where the Ken people-group lived,
30 Un tiem Ormā un tiem KorAzanā un tiem Atakā,
Hormah, Bor-Ashan, Athach,
31 Tiem Hebronē, un visām vietām, kur Dāvids bija apkārt gājis, viņš un viņa vīri.
Hebron, and all the other places where David and his men had gone [when they were hiding from Saul].
