< Otra Samuela 4 >

1 Kad nu Saula dēls dzirdēja, ka Abners Hebronē bija miris, tad viņa rokas nogura un viss Israēls iztrūkās.
When Ishbosheth, Saul's son, heard that Abner was dead in Hebron, his hands became weak, and all Israel was troubled.
2 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;
Now Saul's son had two men who were captains of groups of soldiers. The name of one was Baanah and the other Recab, sons of Rimmon the Beerothite of the people of Benjamin (for Beeroth is also considered part of Benjamin,
3 Un tie Beērotieši bija bēguši uz Ģetaīm un bija tur piemitēji līdz šai dienai.)
and the Beerothites fled to Gittaim and have been living there until this very time).
4 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.
Now Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son who was crippled in his feet. He was five years old when the news about Saul and Jonathan came from Jezreel. His nurse picked him up to flee. But as she was running, Jonathan's son fell and became lame. His name was Mephibosheth.
5 Un Rimona, tā Beērotieša, dēli, Rekabs un Baēna, nogāja un nāca uz Išbošeta namu pašā dienas karstumā un viņš gulēja uz gultas dienasvidū.
So the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Recab and Baanah, traveled during the heat of the day to the house of Ishbosheth, as he was resting at noon.
6 Un tie gāja namā iekšā, tā kā kviešus ņemt, un iedūra viņam vēderā, un Rekabs un Baēna, viņa brālis, aizbēga.
The woman guarding the door had fallen asleep while sifting wheat, and Recab and Baanah walked in quietly and passed her.
7 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.
So after they entered the house, they attacked him and killed him as he was lying on his bed in his room. Then they cut off his head and carried it away, traveling on the road all night to the Arabah.
8 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.
They brought the head of Ishbosheth to David at Hebron, and they said to the king, “Look, this is the head of Ishbosheth son of Saul, your enemy, who sought your life. Today Yahweh has avenged our master the king against Saul and his descendants.”
9 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,
David answered Recab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite; he said to them, “As Yahweh lives, who delivered my life from every trouble,
10 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;
when someone told me, 'Look, Saul is dead,' thinking he was bringing good news, I seized him and killed him at Ziklag. That was the reward I gave him for his news.
11 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?
How much more, when wicked men have killed an innocent person in his own house on his bed, should I not now require his blood from your hand, and remove you from the earth?”
12 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.
Then David gave orders to the young men, and they killed them and cut off their hands and feet and hung them up beside the pool at Hebron. But they took the head of Ishbosheth and buried it in the grave of Abner in Hebron.
