< 2 Samuel 4 >

1 When Saul’s son heard that Abner was dead in Hebron, his hands became feeble, and all the Israelites were troubled.
Kad nu Saula dēls dzirdēja, ka Abners Hebronē bija miris, tad viņa rokas nogura un viss Israēls iztrūkās.
2 Saul’s son had two men who were captains of raiding bands. The name of one was Baanah and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin (for Beeroth also is considered a part of Benjamin;
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;
3 and the Beerothites fled to Gittaim, and have lived as foreigners there until today).
Un tie Beērotieši bija bēguši uz Ģetaīm un bija tur piemitēji līdz šai dienai.)
4 Now Jonathan, Saul’s son, had a son who was lame in his feet. He was five years old when the news came about Saul and Jonathan out of Jezreel; and his nurse picked him up and fled. As she hurried to flee, he fell and became lame. His name was Mephibosheth.
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.
5 The sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, went out and came at about the heat of the day to the house of Ishbosheth as he took his rest at noon.
Un Rimona, tā Beērotieša, dēli, Rekabs un Baēna, nogāja un nāca uz Išbošeta namu pašā dienas karstumā un viņš gulēja uz gultas dienasvidū.
6 They came there into the middle of the house as though they would have fetched wheat, and they struck him in the body; and Rechab and Baanah his brother escaped.
Un tie gāja namā iekšā, tā kā kviešus ņemt, un iedūra viņam vēderā, un Rekabs un Baēna, viņa brālis, aizbēga.
7 Now when they came into the house as he lay on his bed in his bedroom, they struck him, killed him, beheaded him, and took his head, and went by the way of the Arabah all night.
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.
8 They brought the head of Ishbosheth to David to Hebron, and said to the king, “Behold, the head of Ishbosheth, the son of Saul, your enemy, who sought your life! The LORD has avenged my lord the king today of Saul and of his offspring.”
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.
9 David answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said to them, “As the LORD lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all adversity,
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,
10 when someone told me, ‘Behold, Saul is dead,’ thinking that he brought good news, I seized him and killed him in Ziklag, which was the reward I gave him for his news.
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;
11 How much more, when wicked men have slain a righteous person in his own house on his bed, should I not now require his blood from your hand, and rid the earth of you?”
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?
12 David commanded his young men, and they killed them, cut off their hands and their feet, and hanged them up beside the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ishbosheth and buried it in Abner’s grave in Hebron.
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.
