2 Samuel 14
1 Now Joab the son of Zeruiah perceived that the king's heart was toward Absalom.
Kad nu Joabs, Cerujas dēls, manīja, ka ķēniņa sirds pēc Absaloma ilgojās,
2 Joab sent to Tekoa, and fetched there a wise woman, and said to her, "Please act like a mourner, and put on mourning clothing, please, and do not anoint yourself with oil, but be as a woman who has mourned a long time for the dead.
Tad Joabs sūtīja uz Tekou un dabūja no turienes gudru sievu un uz to sacīja: liecies jel žēlojoties un apvelc sēru drēbes un nesvaidies ar eļļu un turies kā sieva, kas sen dienas sērojās par mironi.
3 Go in to the king, and speak like this to him." So Joab put the words in her mouth.
Un ej pie ķēniņa un runā uz to tā un tā. Un Joabs lika tos vārdus viņas mutē.
4 And the woman of Tekoa went to the king, and she bowed down with her face to the ground, and showed respect, and said, "Help, O king."
Un tā Tekoiešu sieva sacīja uz ķēniņu, uz savu vaigu pie zemes mezdamās un klanīdamās: palīdzi, ķēniņ!
5 The king said to her, "What ails you?" She answered, "Truly I am a widow, and my husband is dead.
Un ķēniņš uz to sacīja: kas tev kait? Un viņa sacīja: kait gan, esmu atraitne un mans vīrs miris.
6 Your handmaid had two sons, and they both fought together in the field, and there was no one to part them, but the one struck the other, and killed him.
Un tad vēl tavai kalponei bija divi dēli, tie abi bārās laukā un tiem nebija starpnieka, tad viens sita otru un to nokāva.
7 Look, the whole family has risen against your handmaid, and they say, 'Deliver him who struck his brother, that we may kill him for the life of his brother whom he killed, and so destroy the heir also.' Thus they would quench my coal which is left, and would leave to my husband neither name nor remainder on the surface of the earth."
Un redzi, visi radi cēlās pret tavu kalponi un saka: dod šurp to, kas savu brāli nokāvis, lai mēs viņu nokaujam par tā brāļa dzīvību, ko viņš nokāvis, un izdeldam arī šo mantinieku. Tā tie grib izdzēst manu dzirkstelīti, kas atlikusi, un neatstāt manam vīram ne vārda, ne pēcnākamais virs zemes.
8 The king said to the woman, "Go to your house, and I will give a command concerning you."
Tad ķēniņš uz to sievu sacīja: ej mājās, gan es tevis pēc pavēlēšu.
9 The woman of Tekoa said to the king, "My lord, O king, the iniquity be on me, and on my father's house; and the king and his throne be guiltless."
Un tā Tekoiešu sieva sacīja uz ķēniņu: mans kungs un ķēniņ, lai tas noziegums paliek uz manis un uz mana tēva nama, bet ķēniņš un viņa goda krēsls lai paliek nenoziedzīgs.
10 The king said, "Whoever says anything to you, bring him to me, and he shall not touch you any more."
Un ķēniņš sacīja: ja kas pret tevi runā, tad atved to pie manis, tad tam tevi vairs nebūs aizskart.
11 Then she said, "Please let the king remember Jehovah your God, that the avenger of blood destroy not any more, lest they destroy my son." He said, "As Jehovah lives, not one hair of your son shall fall to the ground."
Un viņa sacīja: lai jel ķēniņš piemin To Kungu, savu Dievu, ka asins atriebēji nevairo to postu, ka tie manu dēlu nenomaitā. Tad viņš sacīja: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvs, neviens no tava dēla matiem nekritīs pie zemes!
12 Then the woman said, "Please let your handmaid speak a word to my lord the king." He said, "Say on."
Tad tā sieva sacīja: lai jel tava kalpone vienu vārdu uz savu kungu, to ķēniņu, runā. Un viņš sacīja: runā!
13 The woman said, "Why then have you devised such a thing against the people of God? For in speaking this word the king is as one who is guilty, in that the king does not bring home again his banished one.
Un tā sieva sacīja: kāpēc tad tu tādu lietu esi nodomājis pret Dieva ļaudīm? Kad ķēniņš šo vārdu runājis, caur to viņš ir tā kā noziedzīgs, tāpēc ka ķēniņš savu atmesto neatved atpakaļ.
14 For we must die, and are as water split on the ground, which can't be gathered up again; neither does God take away life, but devises means, that he who is banished not be an outcast from him.
Jo mirt mums jāmirst un mēs esam kā ūdens, kas zemē izliets netop atkal sasmelts, un Dievs negrib dzīvību atņemt, bet domā uz to, ka neatmet arīdzan tādu, kas atmests.
15 Now therefore seeing that I have come to speak this word to the king, my lord, it is because the people have made me afraid: and your handmaid said, 'I will now speak to the king; it may be that the king will perform the request of his servant.'
Nu tad es esmu nākusi ar savu kungu, to ķēniņu, šo vārdu runāt, jo tie ļaudis mani ir izbiedējuši. Tad tava kalpone sacīja: es runāšu jel ar ķēniņu, vai ķēniņš nedarīs, ko viņa kalpone saka.
16 For the king will hear and deliver his servant out of the hand of the man who would destroy me and my son together out of the inheritance of God.
Jo ķēniņš klausīs un izpestīs savu kalponi no tā vīra rokas, kas apņēmies mani un manu dēlu kopā izdeldēt no Dieva tautas.
17 Then your handmaid said, 'Please let the word of my lord the king bring rest; for as an angel of God, so is my lord the king to discern good and bad. May Jehovah, your God, be with you.'"
Un tava kalpone domāja, lai mana kunga, tā ķēniņa, vārds man ir par iepriecināšanu, jo mans kungs, tas ķēniņš, ir kā Dieva eņģelis, klausīdamies labu un ļaunu; bet Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, lai ir ar tevi.
18 Then the king answered the woman, "Please do not hide anything from me that I ask you." The woman said, "Let my lord the king now speak."
Tad ķēniņš atbildēja un sacīja uz to sievu: neslēp man nekā, ko es tev vaicāšu. Un tā sieva sacīja: runā jel, mans kungs un ķēniņ!
19 The king said, "Is the hand of Joab with you in all this?" The woman answered, "As your soul lives, my lord the king, no one can turn to the right hand or to the left from anything that my lord the king has spoken; for your servant Joab, he urged me, and he put all these words in the mouth of your handmaid;
Un ķēniņš sacīja: vai Joaba roka ar tevi nav visās šinīs lietās? Tad tā sieva atbildēja un sacīja: tik tiešām kā tava dvēsele dzīva, mans kungs un ķēniņ, citādi nav ne pa labo ne pa kreiso roku ar visu to, kā mans kungs, tas ķēniņš, ir runājis; jo tavs kalps Joabs vien, tas man to ir pavēlējis un visus šos vārdus licis tavas kalpones mutē.
20 to change the face of the matter has your servant Joab done this thing. My lord is wise, according to the wisdom of an angel of God, to know that which is on earth."
Šīs lietas nodomu gribēdams apslēpt, tavs kalps Joabs to ir darījis. Bet mans kungs ir gudrs pēc Dieva eņģeļa gudrības, zināt visu, kas virs zemes notiek.
21 The king said to Joab, "Look now, I have done this thing. Go therefore, bring the young man Absalom back."
Un ķēniņš sacīja uz Joabu: redzi, es šo lietu esmu darījis. Ej tad un atved to puisi Absalomu atpakaļ.
22 Joab fell to the ground on his face, showed respect, and blessed the king. Joab said, "Today your servant knows that I have found favor in your sight, my lord, king, in that the king has performed the request of his servant."
Un Joabs klanījās uz savu vaigu pie zemes mezdamies un pateicās ķēniņam, un Joabs sacīja: šodien tavs kalps ir manījis, ka es žēlastību esmu atradis tavās acīs, mans kungs un ķēniņ, tāpēc ka ķēniņš sava kalpa vārdu paklausījis.
23 So Joab arose and went to Geshur, and brought Absalom to Jerusalem.
Tā Joabs cēlās un gāja uz Gešuru un atveda Absalomu uz Jeruzālemi.
24 The king said, "Let him return to his own house, but let him not see my face." So Absalom returned to his own house, and did not see the king's face.
Un ķēniņš sacīja: lai viņš iet savā namā un nenāk priekš manām acīm. Tad Absaloms gāja savā namā un neredzēja ķēniņa vaigu.
25 Now in all Israel there was none to be so much praised as Absalom for his beauty: from the sole of his foot even to the crown of his head there was no blemish in him.
Bet tāda vīra, tik skaista un ļoti slavējama kā Absaloms, nebija pa visu Israēli; no pēdām līdz galvas galam nekādas vainas pie viņa nebija.
26 When he cut the hair of his head (now it was at every year's end that he cut it; because it was heavy on him, therefore he cut it); he weighed the hair of his head at two hundred shekels, after the king's weight.
Un kad viņš savu galvu apcirpa, (tas notika gadu no gada, ka viņš to apcirpa, jo mati viņam bija visai smagi, tāpēc viņš tos nocirpa), tad viņa galvas mati svēra divsimt sēķeļus pēc ķēniņa svara.
27 To Absalom there were born three sons, and one daughter, whose name was Tamar. She was a beautiful woman.
Un Absalomam piedzima trīs dēli un viena meita, Tamāra vārdā, tā bija ļoti skaista sieviete.
28 Absalom lived two full years in Jerusalem; and he did not see the king's face.
Tā Absaloms palika Jeruzālemē divus gadus un neredzēja ķēniņa vaigu.
29 Then Absalom sent for Joab, to send him to the king; but he would not come to him: and he sent again a second time, but he would not come.
Tāpēc Absaloms sūtīja pie Joaba, ka viņš to pie ķēniņa sūtītu, bet tas negribēja nākt pie viņa. Tad viņš sūtīja vēl otrreiz, un tas vēl negribēja nākt.
30 Therefore he said to his servants, "Look, Joab's field is near mine, and he has barley there. Go and set it on fire." Absalom's servants set the field on fire. And the servants of Joab came to him with their clothes rent, and they said to him, "The servants of Absalom have set the field on fire."
Tad viņš sacīja uz saviem kalpiem: redzi, Joaba tīrums ir pie mana klātu, un viņam tur ir mieži; ejat un iededzinājiet to ar uguni. Tad Absaloma kalpi iededzināja to tīrumu ar uguni.
31 Then Joab arose, and came to Absalom to his house, and said to him, "Why have your servants set my field on fire?"
Un Joabs cēlās un nāca Absaloma namā un uz to sacīja: kāpēc tavi kalpi manu tīrumu ar uguni ir iededzinājuši?
32 Absalom answered Joab, "Look, I sent to you, saying, 'Come here, that I may send you to the king, to say, "Why have I come from Geshur? It would be better for me to be there still. Now therefore let me see the king's face; and if there is iniquity in me, let him kill me."'"
Un Absaloms sacīja uz Joabu: redzi, es pie tevis esmu sūtījis sacīdams: nāc šurp, ka es tevi pie ķēniņa sūtu un lieku sacīt, kāpēc es esmu nācis no Gešuras? Man būtu labāki, ka es vēl tur būtu. Bet nu es gribu ķēniņa vaigu redzēt, un ja vēl kāds noziegums ir pie manis, tad lai viņš mani nokauj.
33 So Joab came to the king, and told him; and when he had called for Absalom, he came to the king, and bowed himself on his face to the ground before the king: and the king kissed Absalom.
Tad Joabs gāja pie ķēniņa un viņam to teica. Tad viņš aicināja Absalomu, un tas nāca pie ķēniņa un nometās uz savu vaigu pie zemes ķēniņa priekšā, un ķēniņš skūpstīja Absalomu.
