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 the house of Saul and the house of David: David prospering and growing always stronger and stronger, but the house of Saul decaying daily.
2 Un Dāvidam Hebronē piedzima dēli: viņa pirmdzimtais bija Ammons, no Aķinoamas, tās Jezreēlietes.
And sons were born to David in Hebron: and his firstborn was Amnon of Achinoam the Jezrahelitess:
3 Un viņa otrs bija Ķileabs no Abigaīles, Nābala sievas, no Karmeļa. Un trešais Absaloms, no Maākas, Talmaja, Gešuras ķēniņa, meitas.
And his second Cheleab of Abigail the wife of Nabal of Carmel: and the third Absalom the son of Maacha the daughter of Tholmai king of Gessur:
4 Un ceturtais Adonijus, Aģitas dēls. Un piektais Šefatijus, Abitalas dēls.
And the fourth Adonias, the son of Haggith: and the fifth Saphathia the son of Abital:
5 Un sestais Jetreams no Eglas, Dāvida sievas. Šie dzima Dāvidam Hebronē.
And the sixth Jethraam of Egla the wife of David: these were born to David 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 the house of Saul and the house of David, Abner the son of Ner ruled the house 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?
And Saul had a concubine named Respha, the daughter of Aia. And Isboseth said to Abner:
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!
Why didst thou go in to my father’s concubine? And he was exceedingly angry for the words of Isboseth, and said: Am I a dog’s head against Juda this day, who have shewn mercy to the house of Saul thy father, and to his brethren and friends, and have not delivered thee into the hands of David, and hast thou sought this day against me to charge me with a matter concerning a woman?
9 Lai Dievs Abneram šā un tā dara, ja es tā nedarīšu Dāvidam, kā Tas Kungs viņam ir zvērējis,
So do God to Abner, and more also, unless as the Lord hath sworn to David, so I do to him,
10 Noceldams valstību no Saula nama un uzceldams Dāvida goda krēslu pār Israēli un pār Jūdu no Dana līdz Bēršebai.
That the kingdom be translated from the house of Saul, and the throne of David be set up over Israel, and over Juda from Dan to Bersabee.
11 Un tas Abneram ne vārda vairs nevarēja atbildēt, tā tas viņu bijās.
And he could not answer him a word, because he feared him.
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.
Abner therefore sent messengers to David for himself, saying: Whose is the land? and that they should say: Make a league with me, and my hand shall be with thee: and I will bring all Israel to thee.
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: Very well: I will make a league with thee: but one thing I require of thee, saying: Thou shalt not see my face before thou bring Michol the daughter of Saul: and so thou shalt come, and see me.
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 messengers to Isboseth the son of Saul, saying: Restore my wife Michol, whom I espoused to me for a hundred foreskins of the Philistines.
15 Un Išbošets nosūtīja un to ņēma no vīra, no Paltiēļa, Laīsa dēla.
And Isboseth sent, and took her from her husband Phaltiel, the son of Lais.
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 followed her, weeping as far as Bahurim: and Abner said to him: Go and return. And he returned.
17 Un Abners bija runājis ar Israēla vecajiem un sacījis: jūs citkārt Dāvidu esat meklējuši sev par ķēniņu.
Abner also spoke to the ancients of Israel, saying: Both yesterday and the day before you sought for David that he might reign over you.
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.
Now then do it: because the Lord hath spoken to David, saying: By the hand of my servant David I will save my people Israel from the hands of the Philistines, and of all their enemies.
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 spoke also to Benjamin. And he went to speak to David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel, and to all 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.
And he came to David in Hebron with twenty men: and David made a feast for Abner, and his men that came 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: I will rise, that I may gather all Israel unto thee my lord the king, and may enter into a league with thee, and that thou mayst reign over all as thy soul desireth. Now when David bad brought Abner on his way, and he was gone 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.
Immediately David’s servants and Joab came, after having slain the robbers, with an exceeding great booty: and Abner, was not with David in Hebron, for he had now sent him away, and he was 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.
And Joab and all the army that was with him, came afterwards: and it was told Joab, that Abner the son of Ner came to the king, and he hath sent him away, and he is gone 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?
And Joab went in to the king, and said: What hast thou done? Behold Abner came to thee: Why didst thou send him away, and he is gone and departed?
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.
Knowest thou not Abner the son of Ner, that to this end he came to thee, that he might deceive thee, and to know thy going out, and thy coming in, and to know all thou dost?
26 Un Joabs izgāja no Dāvida un sūtīja vēstnešus Abneram pakaļ, kas viņu atkal atveda no Ziras akas; bet Dāvids par to nezināja.
Then Joab going out from David, sent messengers after Abner, and brought him back from the cistern of Sira, David knowing nothing 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 returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside to the middle of the gate, to speak to him treacherously: and he stabbed him there in the groin, and he died, in revenge of the blood of Asael his brother.
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 heard of it, after the thing was now done, he said: I, and my kingdom are innocent before the Lord for ever of 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.
And may it come upon the head of Joab, and upon all his father’s house: and let there not fail from the house of Joab one that hath an issue of seed, or that is a leper, or that holdeth the distaff, or that falleth by the sword, or that wanteth bread.
30 Tā Joabs un Abizajus, viņa brālis, nokāva Abneru par to, ka tas Azaēli, viņu brāli, bija nokāvis kaujā pie Gibeonas.
So Joab and Abisai his brother slew Abner, because he had killed their brother Asael at Gabaon in the battle.
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 to all the people that were with him: Rend your garments, and gird yourselves with sackcloths, and mourn before the funeral of Abner. And king David himself followed the bier.
32 Kad nu Abneru apraka Hebronē, tad ķēniņš pacēla savu balsi un raudāja pie Abnera kapa, un visi ļaudis raudāja.
And when they had buried Abner in Hebron, king David lifted up his voice, and wept at the grave of Abner: and all the people also wept.
33 Un ķēniņš žēlojās par Abneru un sacīja: vai Abneram bija jāmirst, kā mirst nelietis?
And the king mourning and lamenting over Abner, said: Not as cowards are wont to die, hath Abner died.
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.
Thy hands were not bound, nor thy feet laden with fetters: but as men fall before the children of iniquity, so didst thou fall. And all the people repeating it wept over him.
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 when all the people came to take meat with David, while it was yet broad day, David swore, saying: So do God to me, and more also, if I taste bread or any thing else before sunset.
36 Un visi ļaudis to dzirdēja, un tas tiem labi patika; viss ko ķēniņš darīja, tas visiem ļaudīm labi patika.
And all the people heard, and they were pleased, and all that the king did seemed good in the sight of all the people.
37 Un visi ļaudis un viss Israēls noprata tai dienā, ka tas nebija nācis no ķēniņa, ka Abners, Nera dēls, bija nokauts.
And all the people, and all Israel understood that day that it was not the king’s doing, that Abner the son of Ner was slain.
38 Un ķēniņš sacīja uz saviem kalpiem: vai nezināt, ka šodien lielskungs un augsts vīrs ir kritis iekš Israēla?
The king also said to his servants: Do you not know that a prince and great man is slain this day 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.
But I as yet am tender, though anointed king. And these men the sons of Sarvia are too hard for me: the Lord reward him that doth evil according to his wickedness.
