Pirmā Ķēniņu 2

1 Kad nu Dāvidam laiks atnāca mirt, tad viņš pavēlēja savam dēlam Salamanam un sacīja:

Now the days of David had drawn near, so that he would die, and he instructed his son Solomon, saying:

2 Es eju visas pasaules ceļu. Tāpēc ņemies drošu prātu un turies kā vīrs.

“I am entering the way of all the earth. Be strengthened and be a good man.

3 Un sargi, kas jāsargā Tam Kungam, tavam Dievam, staigādams Viņa ceļos, turēdams Viņa likumus, Viņa baušļus un Viņa tiesas un Viņa liecības, tā kā Mozus bauslībā ir rakstīts, ka tu prātīgi turies iekš visa, ko tu dari, un visur, kurp tu griezies.

And observe the care of the Lord your God, so that you walk in his ways, so that you care for his ceremonies, and his precepts, and judgments, and testimonies, just as it is written in the law of Moses. So may you understand everything that you do, in any direction that you may turn yourself.

4 Lai Tas Kungs Savu vārdu apstiprina, ko Tas uz mani runājis, sacīdams: ja tavi dēli savu ceļu sargās, staigādami priekš Mana vaiga uzticīgi ar visu savu sirdi un ar visu savu dvēseli, tad, Viņš sacīja, tev netrūks vīra, kas sēdēs uz Israēla goda krēsla.

So may the Lord confirm his words, which he has spoken about me, saying: ‘If your sons will guard their ways, and if they will walk before me in truth, with all their heart and with all their soul, there shall not be taken away from you a man on the throne of Israel.’

5 Tu arī gan zini, ko Joabs, Cerujas dēls, man ir darījis, un ko viņš darījis Israēla kara virsniekiem, Abneram, Nera dēlam, un Amasum, Jetera dēlam, ka viņš tos nokāvis, un kara asinis izlējis miera laikā un kara asinis licis pie savas jostas, kas ap viņa gurniem, un pie savām kurpēm, kas pie viņa kājām

Also, you know what Joab, the son of Zeruiah, has done to me, what he did to the two leaders of the army of Israel, to Abner, the son of Ner, and to Amasa, the son of Jether. He killed them, and so he shed the blood of war in peace time, and he set the bloodshed of battle on his belt, which was around his waist, and in his shoes, which were on his feet.

6 Tāpēc dari pēc savas gudrības, ka tu viņa sirmiem matiem nelieci ar mieru nākt kapā. (Sheol h7585)

Therefore, act according to your wisdom. And you shall not allow his gray head to be led away to death in peace. (Sheol h7585)

7 Bet Barzilajus, tā Gileādieša, dēliem, tev būs labu darīt, ka tie ir starp tiem, kas ēd pie tava galda, jo tā tie turējās pie manis, kad es bēgu priekš tava brāļa Absaloma.

Then, too, repay grace to the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite. And you shall allow them to eat at your table. For they met me when I fled from the face of Absalom, your brother.

8 Un redzi, pie tevis ir Šimejus, Ģera dēls, tas Benjaminiets no Bakurim, kas mani lādēja ar briesmīgu lādēšanu tai dienā, kad es uz Mahānaīm gāju. Bet viņš man nonāca pretī pie Jardānes, un es viņam pie Tā Kunga esmu zvērējis, sacīdams; es tevi ar zobenu nekaušu.

Also, you have with you Shimei, the son of Gera, the son of Benjamin, from Bahurim, who cursed me with a grievous curse, when I went away to the camp. And he descended to meet me when I crossed over the Jordan, and I swore to him by the Lord, saying, ‘I will not put you to death by the sword,’

9 Bet tu neturi viņu par nenoziedzīgu, jo tu esi gudrs vīrs un gan zināsi, ko tev viņam būs darīt, ka tu viņa sirmiem matiem ar asinīm lieci nākt bedrē. (Sheol h7585)

yet do not choose to treat him as if he were innocent. Since you are a wise man, you will know what to do with him. And you shall lead away his grey hair to death with blood.” (Sheol h7585)

10 Tā Dāvids gāja dusēt pie saviem tēviem un tapa aprakts Dāvida pilsētā.

And so, David slept with his fathers, and he was buried in the city of David.

11 Un tas laiks, kamēr Dāvids ķēniņš bijis pār Israēli, ir četrdesmit gadi; septiņus gadus viņš bija valdījis Hebronē un trīsdesmit un trīs gadus Jeruzālemē.

Now the days during which David reigned over Israel are forty years: he reigned seven years in Hebron, thirty-three in Jerusalem.

12 Un Salamans sēdēja uz sava tēva Dāvida goda krēsla, un viņa valstība tapa varen stiprināta.

Then Solomon sat upon the throne of his father David, and his kingdom was strengthened exceedingly.

13 Un Adonija, Aģitas dēls, nāca pie Batsebas, Salamana mātes; un tā sacīja: vai tu nāc ar mieru? Un viņš sacīja: ar mieru.

And Adonijah, the son of Haggith, entered to Bathsheba, the mother of Solomon. And she said to him, “Is your entrance peaceful?” He responded, “It is peaceful.”

14 Un viņš sacīja: man ar tevi kas jārunā. Un viņa sacīja: runā.

And he added, “My word is for you.” She said to him, “Speak.” And he said:

15 Tad viņš sacīja: tu zini, ka man tā valstība piederēja, un visas Israēla acis uz mani skatījās, ka man bija ķēniņam būt; bet nu tā valstība ir novērsta un manam brālim tikusi, jo no Tā Kunga tā viņam ir tikusi.

“You know that the kingdom was mine, and that all of Israel had preferred me for themselves as king. But the kingdom was transferred, and has become my brother’s. For it was appointed to him by the Lord.

16 Bet nu es no tevis lūdzu vienu vienīgu lūgšanu, - neapkauno manu vaigu!

Now therefore, I beg of you one petition. May you not confound my face.” And she said to him, “Speak.”

17 Un viņa uz to sacīja: runā. Tad viņš sacīja: runā jel ar ķēniņu Salamanu, jo viņš tavu vaigu neliks kaunā, ka viņš man Abizagu no Šunemes dod par sievu.

And he said: “I beg that you may speak to king Solomon, for he is not able to refuse anything to you, so that he may give Abishag the Shunammite to me as wife.”

18 Un Batseba sacīja: labi, es tevis pēc ar ķēniņu runāšu.

And Bathsheba said: “It is well. I will speak to the king on your behalf.”

19 Tā Batseba nāca pie ķēniņa Salamana, Adonijas labad ar viņu runāt. Un ķēniņš cēlās viņai pretī un paklanījās priekš tās; un viņš apsēdās uz sava goda krēsla un deva ķēniņa mātei arī krēslu, un tā sēdēja pa viņa labo roku.

Then Bathsheba went to king Solomon, so that she might speak to him on behalf of Adonijah. And the king rose up to meet her, and he reverenced her, and he sat down upon his throne. And a throne was stationed for the mother of the king, and she sat at his right hand.

20 Un viņa sacīja: es lūdzos no tevis vienu mazu lūgšanu, - neapkauno manu vaigu. Un ķēniņš uz to sacīja: lūdz, mana māte, es tavu vaigu neapkaunošu.

And she said to him: “I petition one small request from you. May you not confound my face.” And the king said to her: “Ask, my mother. For it is not right that I turn away your face.”

21 Un viņa sacīja: dod Abizagu no Šunemes savam brālim Adonijam par sievu.

And she said, “Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah, your brother, as wife.”

22 Tad ķēniņš Salamans atbildēja un sacīja uz savu māti: kāpēc tad tu prasi Abizagu no Šunemes priekš Adonijas? Prasi priekš viņa arī to valstību, jo viņš ir mans brālis, vecāks nekā es, priekš viņa un Abjatara, tā priestera, un Joaba, Cerujas dēla!

And king Solomon responded, and he said to his mother: “Why do you request Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? Why not request the kingdom for him! For he is my older brother, and he has Abiathar, the priest, and Joab, the son of Zeruiah.”

23 Un ķēniņš Salamans zvērēja pie Tā Kunga un sacīja: lai man Dievs šā un tā dara, tiešām, Adonija šo vārdu būs runājis pret savu dzīvību.

And so king Solomon swore by the Lord, saying: “May God do these things to me, and may he add these other things! For Adonijah has spoken this word against his own life.

24 Un nu, tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo, kas mani apstiprinājis un mani sēdinājis uz mana tēva Dāvida goda krēslu, un kas man ir namu cēlis, itin kā viņš runājis, tiešām, Adonija šodien taps nokauts.

And now, as the Lord lives, who has confirmed me and placed me upon the throne of my father David, and who, just as he said, has made a house for me: Adonijah shall be put to death this day.”

25 Un ķēniņš Salamans nosūtīja pavēli Benajam, Jojadas dēlam; šis to nokāva, un tas nomira.

And king Solomon sent by the hand of Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, who put him to death, and so he died.

26 Un uz priesteri Abjataru ķēniņš sacīja: ej uz Anatotu, uz savu tīrumu, jo tu esi nāvi pelnījis. Bet es tevi šodien nenokaušu, tāpēc ka tu Tā Kunga Dieva šķirstu nesis mana tēva Dāvida priekšā, un ka tu līdz panesis visu, ko mans tēvs panesis.

Also, the king said to Abiathar, the priest: “Go into Anathoth, to your own land, for you are a man worthy of death. But I will not put you to death this day, since you carried the ark of the Lord God before David, my father, and since you have endured hardship in all the things, for which my father labored.”

27 Tā Salamans izdzina Abjataru, ka tas Tam Kungam vairs nebija par priesteri, lai piepildītos Tā Kunga vārds, ko viņš par Elus namu Šīlo bija runājis.

Therefore, Solomon cast out Abiathar, so that he would not be the priest of the Lord, so that the word of the Lord might be fulfilled, which he spoke over the house of Eli at Shiloh.

28 Kad nu šī vēsts pie Joaba nāca (jo Joabs bija turējies pie Adonijas, jebšu nebija turējies pie Absaloma), tad Joabs bēga Tā Kunga teltī un satvēra altāra ragus.

And the news came to Joab, for Joab had turned aside after Adonijah, and he had not turned aside after Solomon. And so, Joab fled into the tabernacle of the Lord, and he took hold of the horn of the altar.

29 Un ķēniņam Salamanam tapa sacīts, ka Joabs bēdzis Tā Kunga teltī, un redzi, viņš ir pie altāra. Tad Salamans sūtīja Benaju, Jojadas dēlu, un sacīja: ej, kauj viņu.

And it was reported to king Solomon that Joab had fled into the tabernacle of the Lord, and that he was beside the altar. And Solomon sent Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, saying, “Go, put him to death.”

30 Un kad Benaja uz Tā Kunga telti nāca, tad viņš uz to sacīja: tā saka ķēniņš: ej ārā. Bet viņš sacīja: nē, bet še es gribu mirt. Tad Benaja nesa ķēniņam atbildi un sacīja: tā Joabs ir runājis un tā viņš man ir atbildējis.

And Benaiah went to the tabernacle of the Lord, and he said to him: “The king says this: ‘Come out.’” But he said: “I will not come out. Instead, I will die here.” Benaiah sent word back to the king, saying, “Joab said this, and he responded to me in this way.”

31 Un ķēniņš uz viņu sacīja: dari tā, kā viņš ir runājis, kauj viņu un aproc viņu, ka tu no manis un no mana tēva nama atņem tās asinis, ko Joabs velti izlējis.

And the king said to him, “Do just as he has said. And put him to death, and bury him. And so shall you take away the innocent blood, which was shed by Joab, from me and from my father’s house.

32 Un Tas Kungs lai liek viņa asinīm atkal nākt uz viņa galvu, tāpēc ka viņš ir sitis divus vīrus, kas labāki un taisnāki bija nekā viņš, un tos ir nokāvis ar zobenu, bez mana tēva Dāvida ziņas, proti Abneru, Nera dēlu, Israēla kara virsnieku, un Amasu, Jetera dēlu, Jūda kara virsnieku.

And the Lord shall repay his blood upon his own head. For he killed two men, just and better than himself, and he killed them with the sword, while my father, David, did not know it: Abner, the son of Ner, leader of the military of Israel, and Amasa, the son of Jether, leader of the army of Judah.

33 Viņu asinis lai atkal nāk uz Joaba galvu un uz viņa dzimuma galvu mūžīgi. Bet Dāvidam un viņa dzimumam un viņa namam un viņa goda krēslam lai ir miers no Tā Kunga mūžīgi.

And their blood shall be turned back upon the head of Joab, and upon the head of his offspring forever. But as for David, and his offspring and house, and his throne, may there be peace from the Lord, even unto eternity.”

34 Un Benaja, Jojadas dēls, nogāja un sita viņu un to nokāva. Un viņš tapa aprakts savā namā tuksnesī.

And so Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, went up and, attacking him, put him to death. And he was buried in his own house in the desert.

35 Un ķēniņš iecēla Benaju, Jojadas dēlu, viņa vietā pār karaspēku, un priesteri Cadoku ķēniņš iecēla Abjatara vietā.

And the king appointed Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, in his place over the army. And he appointed Zadok, the priest, in place of Abiathar.

36 Un ķēniņš nosūtīja un lika Šimeju aicināt, un uz to sacīja: uztaisi sev namu Jeruzālemē un dzīvo tur un neizej no turienes it nekur;

Also, the king sent for and summoned Shimei, and he said to him: “Build a house for yourself in Jerusalem, and live there. And do not depart from that place to here or to there.

37 Un notiks, kurā dienā tu iziesi un iesi pār Kidronas upi, tad zini tiešām, ka tu mirdams mirsi, - tavas asinis lai paliek uz tavas galvas.

For on whatever day you will have departed and crossed the torrent Kidron, know that you shall be put to death. Your blood will be upon your own head.”

38 Tad Šimejus sacīja uz ķēniņu: tas ir labs vārds; kā mans kungs, tas ķēniņš, ir runājis, tā tavs kalps darīs. Tā Šimejus dzīvoja Jeruzālemē labu laiku.

And Shimei said to the king: “The word is good. Just as my lord the king has said, so will your servant do.” And so Shimei lived in Jerusalem for many days.

39 Un notikās pēc trim gadiem, ka Šimejum divi kalpi aizbēga pie Aķisa, Maēkas dēla, Gatas ķēniņa. Un Šimejum teica un sacīja: redzi, tavi kalpi ir Gatā.

But it happened that, after three years, the servants of Shimei fled to Achish, the son of Maacah, the king of Gath. And it was reported to Shimei that his servants had gone away to Gath.

40 Tad Šimejus cēlās un apsegloja savu ēzeli un nogāja uz Gatu pie Aķisa, savus kalpus meklēt. Un tā Šimejus nogāja un atveda savus kalpus no Gatas.

And Shimei rose up, and he saddled his donkey. And went away to Achish in Gath, in order to seek his servants. And he led them away from Gath.

41 Un Salamanam tapa sacīts, ka Šimejus no Jeruzālemes bija nogājis uz Gatu un atkal pārnācis.

And it was reported to Solomon that Shimei had gone away from Jerusalem to Gath, and had returned.

42 Tad ķēniņš sūtīja un sauca Šimeju un uz to sacīja: vai es tevi pie Tā Kunga neesmu apzvērinājis un tev piekodinājis sacīdams: kurā dienā tu iziesi un iesi šur vai tur, tad zini tiešām, ka tev jāmirst? Un tu sacīji uz mani: es esmu labu vārdu dzirdējis.

And sending, he summoned him, and he said to him: “Did I not testify to you by the Lord, and warn you in advance, ‘On whatever day, having departed, you go forth to here or to there, know that you shall die?’ And you responded to me, ‘The word that I have heard is good.’

43 Kāpēc tad tu neesi turējis Tā Kunga zvērestu un to pavēli, ko es tev esmu pavēlējis?

Then why have you not kept the oath to the Lord, and the commandment which I instructed to you?”

44 Un ķēniņš sacīja uz Šimeju: tu zini visu to ļaunu, ko tava sirds apzinās, ko tu manam tēvam Dāvidam darījis, tāpēc Tas Kungs tavam ļaunumam atkal licis nākt uz tavu galvu.

And the king said to Shimei: “You know all the evil, of which your heart is conscious, which you did to David, my father. The Lord has repaid your wickedness upon your own head.”

45 Bet ķēniņš Salamans būs svētīts, un Dāvida goda krēsls būs pastāvīgs priekš Tā Kunga mūžīgi.

And king Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the Lord, even forever.

46 Un ķēniņš pavēlēja Benajam, Jojadas dēlam; tas izgāja un viņu sita, un tas nomira. Tā valstība kļuva apstiprināta caur Salamana roku.

And so the king commanded Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada. And going out, he struck him down, and he died.
