Pirmā Samuela 23

1 Un Dāvidam teica un sacīja: redzi, Fīlisti karo pret Ķeģilu un aplaupa klonus.

Then they told David, saying, Behold, the Philistines fight against Keilah, and they rob the threshingfloors.

2 Tad Dāvids vaicāja To Kungu un sacīja: vai man būs iet un Fīlistus kaut? Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Dāvidu: ej, jo tu Fīlistus kausi un izglābsi Ķeģilu.

Therefore David enquired of the LORD, saying, Shall I go and smite these Philistines? And the LORD said unto David, Go, and smite the Philistines, and save Keilah.

3 Bet Dāvida vīri uz to sacīja: redzi, mēs bīstamies šeit iekš Jūda: kā mēs varētu iet uz Ķeģilu pret Fīlistu karapulkiem?

And David’s men said unto him, Behold, we be afraid here in Judah: how much more then if we come to Keilah against the armies of the Philistines?

4 Tad Dāvids vaicāja atkal To Kungu, un Tas Kungs tam atbildēja un sacīja: “Celies, noej uz Ķeģilu, jo Es Fīlistus dodu tavā rokā.”

Then David enquired of the LORD yet again. And the LORD answered him and said, Arise, go down to Keilah; for I will deliver the Philistines into thine hand.

5 Tad Dāvids nogāja ar saviem vīriem uz Ķeģilu un karoja pret Fīlistiem un aizdzina viņu lopus un sakāva tos lielā kaušanā. Tā Dāvids atpestīja Ķeģilas iedzīvotājus.

So David and his men went to Keilah, and fought with the Philistines, and brought away their cattle, and smote them with a great slaughter. So David saved the inhabitants of Keilah.

6 Bet kad Abjatars, Aķimeleka dēls, uz Ķeģilu bēga pie Dāvida, tad viņš nonāca ar to efodu savā rokā.

And it came to pass, when Abiathar the son of Ahimelech fled to David to Keilah, [that] he came down [with] an ephod in his hand.

7 Kad nu Saulam sacīja, ka Dāvids bija nācis uz Ķeģilu, tad Sauls sacīja: Dievs to nodevis manā rokā, jo viņš ir ieslēgts, ka tas nācis pilsētā, kur aizšaujami vārti.

And it was told Saul that David was come to Keilah. And Saul said, God hath delivered him into mine hand; for he is shut in, by entering into a town that hath gates and bars.

8 Tad Sauls sasauca tos ļaudis uz karu, ka tie noietu uz Ķeģilu, Dāvidu ar viņa vīriem aplenkt.

And Saul called all the people together to war, to go down to Keilah, to besiege David and his men.

9 Kad nu Dāvids nomanīja, ka Sauls šo ļaunumu pret viņu slepeni bija apņēmies, tad viņš sacīja uz priesteri Abjataru: nes to efodu šurp.

And David knew that Saul secretly practised mischief against him; and he said to Abiathar the priest, Bring hither the ephod.

10 Un Dāvids sacīja: Kungs, Israēla Dievs, Tavs kalps to dzirdējis, ka Sauls domā uz Ķeģilu nākt, to pilsētu samaitāt manis dēļ.

Then said David, O LORD God of Israel, thy servant hath certainly heard that Saul seeketh to come to Keilah, to destroy the city for my sake.

11 Vai Ķeģilas namnieki mani nodos viņa rokā? Vai Sauls arī nāks lejā, kā Tavs kalps dzirdējis? Kungs, Israēla Dievs, saki to jel Savam kalpam. Tad Tas Kungs sacīja: viņš nonāks lejā.

Will the men of Keilah deliver me up into his hand? will Saul come down, as thy servant hath heard? O LORD God of Israel, I beseech thee, tell thy servant. And the LORD said, He will come down.

12 Un Dāvids sacīja: vai tad Ķeģilas namnieki mani un manus vīrus nodos Saula rokā? Tad Tas Kungs sacīja: nodos.

Then said David, Will the men of Keilah deliver me and my men into the hand of Saul? And the LORD said, They will deliver [thee] up.

13 Tad Dāvids cēlās ar saviem vīriem, to bija pie sešsimt, un tie izgāja no Ķeģilas un gāja, kur varēdami. Un kad Saulam sacīja, ka Dāvids no Ķeģilas aizbēdzis, tad viņš palika neizgājis.

Then David and his men, [which were] about six hundred, arose and departed out of Keilah, and went whithersoever they could go. And it was told Saul that David was escaped from Keilah; and he forbare to go forth.

14 Un Dāvids mita tuksnesī nepieejamās vietās un palika uz kalniem Zifas tuksnesī. Un Sauls to meklēja vienmēr, bet Dievs to nedeva viņa rokā.

And David abode in the wilderness in strong holds, and remained in a mountain in the wilderness of Ziph. And Saul sought him every day, but God delivered him not into his hand.

15 Un Dāvids redzēja, ka Sauls bija izgājis, viņa dzīvību meklēt; un Dāvids bija Zifas tuksneša silā.

And David saw that Saul was come out to seek his life: and David [was] in the wilderness of Ziph in a wood.

16 Tad Jonatāns, Saula dēls, cēlās un gāja pie Dāvida silā un stiprināja viņa roku iekš Dieva,

And Jonathan Saul’s son arose, and went to David into the wood, and strengthened his hand in God.

17 Un sacīja uz to: nebīsties, jo mana tēva Saula roka tevi neatradīs, un tu tapsi Israēlim par ķēniņu, un es būšu tas tuvākais pie tevis, un to mans tēvs Sauls arī gan zina.

And he said unto him, Fear not: for the hand of Saul my father shall not find thee; and thou shalt be king over Israel, and I shall be next unto thee; and that also Saul my father knoweth.

18 Un tie abi derēja derību Tā Kunga priekšā, un Dāvids palika tai silā, bet Jonatāns gāja uz savām mājām.

And they two made a covenant before the LORD: and David abode in the wood, and Jonathan went to his house.

19 Tad Zifas ļaudis nogāja pie Saula uz Ģibeju un sacīja: vai Dāvids neslēpjas pie mums silā nepieejamās vietās, uz Aķilas pakalna, kas tuksnesim pa labo roku?

Then came up the Ziphites to Saul to Gibeah, saying, Doth not David hide himself with us in strong holds in the wood, in the hill of Hachilah, which [is] on the south of Jeshimon?

20 Nu tad, ķēniņ, nāc tūdaļ it pēc tava sirds prāta, jo mums pienākas, viņu nodot ķēniņa rokā.

Now therefore, O king, come down according to all the desire of thy soul to come down; and our part [shall be] to deliver him into the king’s hand.

21 Tad Sauls sacīja: svētīti jūs esat Tam Kungam, ka jūs par mani esat apžēlojušies.

And Saul said, Blessed [be] ye of the LORD; for ye have compassion on me.

22 Ejat jel, ņemiet vēl vērā, skatāties un izlūkojiet viņa vietu, kur viņa pēdas būs, un kas viņu tur ir redzējis; jo man ir sacīts, ka viņš ļoti gudrs.

Go, I pray you, prepare yet, and know and see his place where his haunt is, [and] who hath seen him there: for it is told me [that] he dealeth very subtilly.

23 Tāpēc izraugāt un izlūkojiet visas malas, kur viņš slēpjās; tad nāciet atkal pie manis ar īstu vēsti, tad es jums iešu līdz. Un ja viņš šai zemē būs, tad es viņam dzīšos pakaļ starp visiem tūkstošiem iekš Jūda.

See therefore, and take knowledge of all the lurking places where he hideth himself, and come ye again to me with the certainty, and I will go with you: and it shall come to pass, if he be in the land, that I will search him out throughout all the thousands of Judah.

24 Tad tie cēlās un nogāja uz Zifu Saulam pa priekšu. Bet Dāvids un viņa vīri turējās Maona tuksneša klajumā, pa labo roku tuksnesim.

And they arose, and went to Ziph before Saul: but David and his men [were] in the wilderness of Maon, in the plain on the south of Jeshimon.

25 Un Sauls ar saviem vīriem gāja, viņu meklēt. Bet Dāvidam tapa ziņa dota, un viņš nogāja uz to lielo akmeni un palika Maona tuksnesī. Kad nu Sauls to dzirdēja, tad viņš Dāvidam dzinās pakaļ pa Maona tuksnesi.

Saul also and his men went to seek [him]. And they told David: wherefore he came down into a rock, and abode in the wilderness of Maon. And when Saul heard [that], he pursued after David in the wilderness of Maon.

26 Un Sauls gāja šai kalna pusē, un Dāvids ar saviem vīriem viņā kalna pusē. Tad Dāvids steidzās no Saula bēgt, bet Sauls ar saviem vīriem Dāvidu un viņa vīrus aplenca, gribēdams tos sagūstīt.

And Saul went on this side of the mountain, and David and his men on that side of the mountain: and David made haste to get away for fear of Saul; for Saul and his men compassed David and his men round about to take them.

27 Bet viens vēstnesis nāca pie Saula sacīdams: steidzies un ej, jo Fīlisti zemē ielauzušies.

But there came a messenger unto Saul, saying, Haste thee, and come; for the Philistines have invaded the land.

28 Un Sauls griezās atpakaļ no Dāvida pakaļdzīšanās un gāja pret Fīlistiem; tāpēc šī vieta top nosaukta Zela-Maklekot (šķiršanās akmens).

Wherefore Saul returned from pursuing after David, and went against the Philistines: therefore they called that place Sela-hammahlekoth.

29 Un Dāvids aizgāja no turienes un palika Enģedos nepieejamās vietās.

And David went up from thence, and dwelt in strong holds at En-gedi.
