1 Samuel 9
1 Now there was a man of Benjamin, whose name [was] Kish, the son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Bechorath, the son of Aphiah, a Benjamite, a mighty man of power.
Un vīrs bija no Benjamina, Ķis vārdā, tas bija Abiēļa dēls, tas Cerora, tas Bekora, tas Apija, tas viena Benjaminieša dēls. Šis bija krietns, turīgs vīrs.
2 And he had a son, whose name [was] Saul, a choice young man, and a goodly: and [there was] not among the children of Israel a goodlier person than he: from his shoulders and upward [he was] higher than any of the people.
Un viņam bija dēls, Sauls vārdā, jauns un skaists, un tāda skaista vīra nebija starp Israēla bērniem kā viņš, veselu galvu lielāks nekā visi citi ļaudis.
3 And the asses of Kish Saul’s father were lost. And Kish said to Saul his son, Take now one of the servants with thee, and arise, go seek the asses.
Un Saula tēvam Ķisam ēzeļu mātes bija zudušas, un Ķis sacīja uz savu dēlu Saulu: ņem jel vienu no puišiem līdzi, un celies, ej meklēt tās ēzeļu mātes.
4 And he passed through mount Ephraim, and passed through the land of Shalisha, but they found [them] not: then they passed through the land of Shalim, and [there they were] not: and he passed through the land of the Benjamites, but they found [them] not.
Tad viņš pārstaigāja Efraīma kalnus un gāja caur Zalisa zemi, un tās neatrada; un tie gāja caur Zaālim zemi, un arī tur tās nebija; un tie gāja caur Jemiņa zemi un tās neatrada.
5 [And] when they were come to the land of Zuph, Saul said to his servant that [was] with him, Come, and let us return; lest my father leave [caring] for the asses, and take thought for us.
Tad tie nāca uz Cuv zemi, un Sauls sacīja uz savu puisi, kas pie viņa bija: nāc, iesim atpakaļ, ka mans tēvs no tām ēzeļu mātēm mitēdamies nesāk mūsu pēc bēdāties.
6 And he said unto him, Behold now, [there is] in this city a man of God, and [he is] an honourable man; all that he saith cometh surely to pass: now let us go thither; peradventure he can shew us our way that we should go.
Bet šis uz to sacīja: redzi jel, šinī pilsētā ir viens Dieva vīrs, un tas vīrs stāv godā; viss ko viņš runā, tas tiešām notiek; ejam nu uz turieni, varbūt viņš mums teiks mūsu ceļu, kur mums jāiet.
7 Then said Saul to his servant, But, behold, [if] we go, what shall we bring the man? for the bread is spent in our vessels, and [there is] not a present to bring to the man of God: what have we?
Tad Sauls sacīja uz savu puisi: bet redzi, kad iesim, ko mēs tam vīram nesīsim? Jo maizes vairs nav mūsu kulītēs, un dāvanu mums nav, tam Dieva vīram ko nest, - kas tad mums ir?
8 And the servant answered Saul again, and said, Behold, I have here at hand the fourth part of a shekel of silver: [that] will I give to the man of God, to tell us our way.
Un tas puisis Saulam atkal atbildēja un sacīja: redzi, manā rokā ir sudraba sēķeļa ceturtdaļa, to es došu tam Dieva vīram, lai viņš mums teic mūsu ceļu.
9 (Beforetime in Israel, when a man went to enquire of God, thus he spake, Come, and let us go to the seer: for [he that is] now [called] a Prophet was beforetime called a Seer.)
(Citkārt tā sacīja iekš Israēla, kad kas gāja Dievu vaicāt: nāciet, iesim pie tā redzētāja; jo ko šodien sauc par pravieti, to citkārt sauca par redzētāju.)
10 Then said Saul to his servant, Well said; come, let us go. So they went unto the city where the man of God [was].
Tad Sauls sacīja uz savu puisi: tavs vārds ir labs, nāc, iesim! Un tie gāja uz to pilsētu, kur tas Dieva vīrs bija.
11 [And] as they went up the hill to the city, they found young maidens going out to draw water, and said unto them, Is the seer here?
Šiem nu augšām ejot pa pilsētas pakalnu sastapa meitas, kas iznāca ūdeni smelt, un šie uz tām sacīja: vai tas redzētājs šeitan?
12 And they answered them, and said, He is; behold, [he is] before you: make haste now, for he came to day to the city; for [there is] a sacrifice of the people to day in the high place:
Tās viņiem atbildēja un sacīja: redzi, še pat viņš ir, steidzies tad, jo viņš šodien ir nācis pilsētā, tāpēc ka šodien tiem ļaudīm upuris uz kalna.
13 As soon as ye be come into the city, ye shall straightway find him, before he go up to the high place to eat: for the people will not eat until he come, because he doth bless the sacrifice; [and] afterwards they eat that be bidden. Now therefore get you up; for about this time ye shall find him.
Kā nāksiet pilsētā, tad jūs viņu atradīsiet, pirms ne kā viņš iet uz kalnu ēst. Jo tie ļaudis neēdīs, kamēr viņš nāks, jo viņš svētī to upuri, pēc tam ēd tie aicinātie; tāpēc ejat nu, jo šodien jūs tiksiet pie viņa.
14 And they went up into the city: [and] when they were come into the city, behold, Samuel came out against them, for to go up to the high place.
Un tā tie gāja pilsētā; un pilsētā ienākot, redzi, Samuēls tiem izgāja pretī, gribēdams iet uz kalnu.
15 Now the LORD had told Samuel in his ear a day before Saul came, saying,
Bet Tas Kungs vienu dienu papriekš, pirms ne kā Sauls nāca, Samuēla ausi bija atvēris sacīdams:
16 To morrow about this time I will send thee a man out of the land of Benjamin, and thou shalt anoint him [to be] captain over my people Israel, that he may save my people out of the hand of the Philistines: for I have looked upon my people, because their cry is come unto me.
Rīt ap šo laiku Es pie tevis sūtīšu vienu vīru no Benjamina zemes; to tev būs svaidīt par valdītāju Maniem Israēla ļaudīm, jo viņš Manus ļaudis izpestīs no Fīlistu rokas. Jo Es esmu uzlūkojis Savus ļaudis, tāpēc ka viņu brēkšana pie Manis nākusi.
17 And when Samuel saw Saul, the LORD said unto him, Behold the man whom I spake to thee of! this same shall reign over my people.
Kad nu Samuēls Saulu redzēja, tad Tas Kungs tam atbildēja: redzi, tas ir tas vīrs, par ko Es tev sacīju: šim būs valdīt pār Maniem ļaudīm.
18 Then Saul drew near to Samuel in the gate, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, where the seer’s house [is].
Un Sauls piegāja pie Samuēla pašos vārtos un sacīja: saki man, lūdzams, kur še ir tā redzētāja nams?
19 And Samuel answered Saul, and said, I [am] the seer: go up before me unto the high place; for ye shall eat with me to day, and to morrow I will let thee go, and will tell thee all that [is] in thine heart.
Tad Samuēls Saulam atbildēja un sacīja: es esmu tas redzētājs, ej manā priekšā uz kalnu, un ēdat šodien ar mani, tad es tevi rīt agri atlaidīšu, un visu, kas tavā sirdī, to es tev sacīšu.
20 And as for thine asses that were lost three days ago, set not thy mind on them; for they are found. And on whom [is] all the desire of Israel? [Is it] not on thee, and on all thy father’s house?
Un par tām ēzeļu mātēm, kas tev aizvakar zudušas, par tām nebēdājies vairs, jo tās ir atrastas. Un kam tad būs nu viss Israēla labums? Vai tas nebūs tev un visam tava tēva namam?
21 And Saul answered and said, [Am] not I a Benjamite, of the smallest of the tribes of Israel? and my family the least of all the families of the tribe of Benjamin? wherefore then speakest thou so to me?
Tad Sauls atbildēja un sacīja: vai es neesmu viens Benjaminietis, no tās vismazākās Israēla cilts, un mans nams ir tas mazākais no visiem Benjamina cilts namiem? Kāpēc tad tu uz mani saki tādu vārdu?
22 And Samuel took Saul and his servant, and brought them into the parlour, and made them sit in the chiefest place among them that were bidden, which [were] about thirty persons.
Tad Samuēls ņēma Saulu un viņa puisi un tos ieveda ēdamā istabā un tos sēdināja visaugstākā vietā pie tiem aicinātiem, - to bija pie trīsdesmit vīru.
23 And Samuel said unto the cook, Bring the portion which I gave thee, of which I said unto thee, Set it by thee.
Tad Samuēls sacīja uz to pavāru: dod šurp to gabalu, ko es tev devu, sacīdams: paglabā to pie sevis.
24 And the cook took up the shoulder, and [that] which [was] upon it, and set [it] before Saul. And [Samuel] said, Behold that which is left! set [it] before thee, [and] eat: for unto this time hath it been kept for thee since I said, I have invited the people. So Saul did eat with Samuel that day.
Tad tas pavārs atnesa vienu pleci ar visu to, kas klāt bija, un to cēla Saulam priekšā. Un viņš sacīja: redzi, tev ir priekšā celts, kas bija atlicināts, ēd, jo tas uz šo nolikto laiku priekš tevis ir paglabāts, kad es sacīju: es tos ļaudis esmu aicinājis. Tā Sauls ēda ar Samuēli tai dienā.
25 And when they were come down from the high place into the city, [Samuel] communed with Saul upon the top of the house.
Un tie nogāja no tā kalna uz pilsētu; un viņš runāja ar Saulu uz jumta.
26 And they arose early: and it came to pass about the spring of the day, that Samuel called Saul to the top of the house, saying, Up, that I may send thee away. And Saul arose, and they went out both of them, he and Samuel, abroad.
Un tie cēlās agri, un kad gaisma metās, tad Samuēls sauca Saulam uz jumta sacīdams: celies, ka es tevi pavadu. Tad Sauls cēlās, un tie abi, viņš un Samuēls, izgāja ārā.
27 [And] as they were going down to the end of the city, Samuel said to Saul, Bid the servant pass on before us, (and he passed on, ) but stand thou still a while, that I may shew thee the word of God.
Un kad tie līdz pilsētas galam bija nogājuši, tad Samuēls sacīja uz Saulu: saki tam puisim, lai viņš mums iet papriekš, (tad tas nogāja), bet tu palieci nu stāvot, jo es tev likšu Dieva vārdu dzirdēt.
