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 long war between the house of Saul and the house of David: but David waxed stronger and stronger, and the house of Saul waxed weaker and weaker.

2 Un Dāvidam Hebronē piedzima dēli: viņa pirmdzimtais bija Ammons, no Aķinoamas, tās Jezreēlietes.

And unto David were sons born in Hebron: and his firstborn was Amnon, of Ahinoam the Jezreelitess;

3 Un viņa otrs bija Ķileabs no Abigaīles, Nābala sievas, no Karmeļa. Un trešais Absaloms, no Maākas, Talmaja, Gešuras ķēniņa, meitas.

And his second, Chileab, of Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite; and the third, Absalom the son of Maacah the daughter of Talmai king of Geshur;

4 Un ceturtais Adonijus, Aģitas dēls. Un piektais Šefatijus, Abitalas dēls.

And the fourth, Adonijah the son of Haggith; and the fifth, Shephatiah the son of Abital;

5 Un sestais Jetreams no Eglas, Dāvida sievas. Šie dzima Dāvidam Hebronē.

And the sixth, Ithream, by Eglah David’s wife. 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.

And it came to pass, while there was war between the house of Saul and the house of David, that Abner made himself strong for 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, whose name was Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah: and Ish–bosheth said to Abner, Wherefore hast thou gone in unto my father’s concubine?

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!

Then was Abner very wroth for the words of Ish–bosheth, and said, Am I a dog’s head, which against Judah do shew kindness this day unto the house of Saul thy father, to his brethren, and to his friends, and have not delivered thee into the hand of David, that thou chargest me to day with a fault concerning this 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, except, as Yhwh hath sworn to David, even 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.

To translate the kingdom from the house of Saul, and to set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, from Dan even to Beer–sheba.

11 Un tas Abneram ne vārda vairs nevarēja atbildēt, tā tas viņu bijās.

And he could not answer Abner a word again, 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.

And Abner sent messengers to David on his behalf, saying, Whose is the land? saying also, Make thy league with me, and, behold, my hand shall be with thee, to bring about all Israel unto 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, Well; I will make a league with thee: but one thing I require of thee, that is, Thou shalt not see my face, except thou first bring Michal Saul’s daughter, when thou comest to see my face.

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 Ish–bosheth Saul’s son, saying, Deliver me my wife Michal, which I espoused to me for an hundred foreskins of the Philistines.

15 Un Išbošets nosūtīja un to ņēma no vīra, no Paltiēļa, Laīsa dēla.

And Ish–bosheth sent, and took her from her husband, even from Phaltiel the son of Laish.

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 went with her along weeping behind her to Bahurim. Then said Abner unto him, Go, return. And he returned.

17 Un Abners bija runājis ar Israēla vecajiem un sacījis: jūs citkārt Dāvidu esat meklējuši sev par ķēniņu.

And Abner had communication with the elders of Israel, saying, Ye sought for David in times past to be king 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: for Yhwh hath spoken of David, saying, By the hand of my servant David I will save my people Israel out of the hand of the Philistines, and out of the hand 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 also spake in the ears of Benjamin: and Abner went also to speak in the ears of David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel, and that seemed good to the whole house of 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.

So Abner came to David to Hebron, and twenty men with him. And David made Abner and the men that were with him a feast.

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 unto David, I will arise and go, and will gather all Israel unto my lord the king, that they may make a league with thee, and that thou mayest reign over all that thine heart desireth. And David sent Abner away; and he went 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.

And, behold, the servants of David and Joab came from pursuing a troop, and brought in a great spoil with them: but Abner was not with David in Hebron; for he had 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.

When Joab and all the army that was with him were come, they told Joab, saying, 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?

Then Joab came to the king, and said, What hast thou done? behold, Abner came unto thee; why is it that thou hast sent him away, and he is quite gone?

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.

Thou knowest Abner the son of Ner, that he came to deceive thee, and to know thy going out and thy coming in, and to know all that thou doest.

26 Un Joabs izgāja no Dāvida un sūtīja vēstnešus Abneram pakaļ, kas viņu atkal atveda no Ziras akas; bet Dāvids par to nezināja.

And when Joab was come out from David, he sent messengers after Abner, which brought him again from the well of Sirah: but David knew it not.

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 in the gate to speak with him quietly, and smote him there under the fifth rib, that he died, for the blood of Asahel 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 afterward when David heard it, he said, I and my kingdom are guiltless before Yhwh for ever from 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.

Let it rest on the head of Joab, and on all his father’s house; and let there not fail from the house of Joab one that hath an issue, or that is a leper, or that leaneth on a staff, or that falleth on the sword, or that lacketh 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 Abishai his brother slew Abner, because he had slain their brother Asahel at Gibeon 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 clothes, and gird you with sackcloth, and mourn before 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 they buried Abner in Hebron: and the king lifted up his voice, and wept at the grave of Abner; and all the people wept.

33 Un ķēniņš žēlojās par Abneru un sacīja: vai Abneram bija jāmirst, kā mirst nelietis?

And the king lamented over Abner, and said, Died Abner as a fool dieth?

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 put into fetters: as a man falleth before wicked men, so fellest thou. And all the people wept again 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 cause David to eat meat while it was yet day, David sware, saying, So do God to me, and more also, if I taste bread, or ought else, till the sun be down.

36 Un visi ļaudis to dzirdēja, un tas tiem labi patika; viss ko ķēniņš darīja, tas visiem ļaudīm labi patika.

And all the people took notice of it, and it pleased them: as whatsoever the king did pleased 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.

For all the people and all Israel understood that day that it was not of the king to slay Abner the son of Ner.

38 Un ķēniņš sacīja uz saviem kalpiem: vai nezināt, ka šodien lielskungs un augsts vīrs ir kritis iekš Israēla?

And the king said unto his servants, Know ye not that there is a prince and a great man fallen 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.

And I am this day weak, though anointed king; and these men the sons of Zeruiah be too hard for me: Yhwh shall reward the doer of evil according to his wickedness.
