< Otra Samuela 4 >

1 Kad nu Saula dēls dzirdēja, ka Abners Hebronē bija miris, tad viņa rokas nogura un viss Israēls iztrūkās.
Now when Ishbaal, Saul's son, heard that Abner was dead in Hebron, he lost courage, and all Israel was troubled.
2 Un Saula dēlam bija divi vīri, sirotāju virsnieki, un vienam bija vārds Baēna un otram Rekabs, Rimona dēli, no Beērotas, no Benjamina bērniem, (jo Beērota arīdzan Benjamina bērniem top pieskaitīta;
And Ishbaal, Saul's son, had two men who were captains of bands; the name of the one was Baanah, and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the people of Benjamin (for Beeroth was regarded as belonging to the people of Benjamin;
3 Un tie Beērotieši bija bēguši uz Ģetaīm un bija tur piemitēji līdz šai dienai.)
and the Beerothites fled to Gittaim, and have lived as foreigners there until this day).
4 Un Jonatānam, Saula dēlam, bija dēls, tas bija tizls uz abējām kājām; pieci gadus viņš bija vecs, kad tā vēsts no Jezreēles nāca par Saulu un Jonatānu, un viņa emma viņu bija uzņēmusi un bēgusi, un tai steigšus bēgot viņš bija kritis un par kropli palicis, un viņa vārds bija Mefibošets.
Now Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son whose feet were crippled. He was five years old when the news came of Saul and Jonathan from Jezreel, and his nurse took him up and fled. And it happened as she was hurrying to get away that he fell and was injured. And his name was Mippibaal.
5 Un Rimona, tā Beērotieša, dēli, Rekabs un Baēna, nogāja un nāca uz Išbošeta namu pašā dienas karstumā un viņš gulēja uz gultas dienasvidū.
The sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, went, and came about the heat of the day to the house of Ishbaal, as he took his rest at noon.
6 Un tie gāja namā iekšā, tā kā kviešus ņemt, un iedūra viņam vēderā, un Rekabs un Baēna, viņa brālis, aizbēga.
And look, the doorkeeper of the house had been sifting wheat, and she became drowsy and fell asleep. And Rechab and his brother Baanah slipped by.
7 Tie nāca namā, viņam uz gultas guļot savā guļamā istabā, un to sita un nokāva, un viņam nocirta galvu, un tie ņēma viņa galvu un gāja pa klajuma ceļu visu nakti.
And they went into the house where he was lying on his bed in his bedchamber. And they struck him and killed him, and beheaded him. And they took his head and went by the way of the Arabah all night.
8 Un tie nesa Išbošeta galvu pie Dāvida uz Hebroni un sacīja uz ķēniņu: redzi, še ir Išbošeta, Saula dēla, tava ienaidnieka, galva, kas tavu dzīvību meklēja. Tā Tas Kungs manu kungu, to ķēniņu, šodien ir atriebis pie Saula un viņa dzimuma.
They brought the head of Ishbaal to David at Hebron, and said to the king, "Look, the head of Ishbaal, the son of Saul, your enemy, who sought your life. YHWH has avenged my lord the king this day of Saul and his descendants."
9 Bet Dāvids atbildēja Rekabam un viņa brālim Baēnam, Rimona, tā Beērotieša, dēliem, un uz tiem sacīja: tik tiešām, kā Tas Kungs dzīvs, kas manu dvēseli ir atpestījis no visām bēdām,
David answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said to them, "As YHWH lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all adversity,
10 Kas man to vēsti nesa, sacīdams: redzi, Sauls ir nomiris! Un šķitās labu vēsti nesot, to es sagrābu un nokāvu Ciklagā, dot tam vēstneša algu;
when someone told me, 'Look, Saul is dead,' thinking to have brought good news, I took hold of him, and killed him in Ziklag, which was the reward I gave him for his news.
11 Jo vairāk, kad bezdievīgi vīri taisnu vīru viņa namā uz viņa gultas nokāvuši, - un nu, vai man nebūs meklēt viņa asinis no jūsu rokām un jūs izdeldēt no zemes?
How much more, when wicked men have slain a righteous person in his own house on his bed, shall I not now require his blood of your hand, and take you away from the earth?"
12 Un Dāvids pavēlēja saviem puišiem, un tie tos nokāva un nocirta viņiem rokas un kājās un tos uzkāra pie Hebrones dīķa. Bet Išbošeta galvu tie ņēma un apraka Abnera kapā Hebronē.
David commanded his young men, and they killed them, and cut off their hands and their feet, and hanged them up beside the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ishbaal, and buried it in the grave of Abner in Hebron.
