¹Samuel died; and all Israel gathered themselves together, and lamented him, and buried him in his house at Ramah. David arose, and went down to the wilderness of Paran.

¹Samuelis mirė, visi izraeli tai susirinko, apraudojo jį ir palaidojo jo namuose Ramoje. Dovydas pakilo ir nuėjo į Parano dykumą.

²There was a man in Maon, whose possessions were in Carmel; and the man was very great, and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.

²Maone gyveno vyras, kuris turėjo nuosavybę Karmelyje. Jis buvo labai turtingas: turėjo tris tūkstančius avių ir tūkstantį ožkų. Kartą jis kirpo avis Karmelyje.

³Now the name of the man was Nabal; and the name of his wife Abigail; and the woman was of good understanding, and of a beautiful face: but the man was churlish and evil in his doings; and he was of the house of Caleb.

³Jo vardas buvo Nabalas, o jo žmonos­Abigailė. Moteris buvo išmintinga ir graži, bet jos vyras šiurkštus ir blogo elgesio; jis buvo iš Kalebo namų.

⁴David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep.

⁴Dovydas išgirdo dykumoje, kad Nabalas kerpa avis.

⁵David sent ten young men, and David said to the young men, “Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name.

⁵Jis pasiuntė dešimt jaunuolių ir sakė jiems: “Eikite į Karmelį pas Nabalą ir pasveikinkite jį mano vardu.

⁶You shall tell him, ‘Long life to you! Peace be to you, and peace be to your house, and peace be to all that you have.

⁶Sakykite jam: ‘Ramybė tebūna tau, ramybė tavo namams ir ramybė viskam, ką turi.

⁷Now I have heard that you have shearers. Your shepherds have now been with us, and we didn’t hurt them, neither was there anything missing from them, all the while they were in Carmel.

⁷Sužinojau, kad kerpamos tavo avys. Tavo piemenys buvo su mumis. Mes jiems nieko blogo nepadarėme ir jiems nieko netrūko, kol jie buvo Karmelyje.

⁸Ask your young men, and they will tell you. Therefore let the young men find favor in your eyes; for we come in a good day. Please give whatever comes to your hand, to your servants, and to your son David.’”

⁸Paklausk savo jaunuolių, ir jie tau patvirtins. Teatranda šitie jaunuoliai malonę tavo akyse, nes atėjome gerą dieną. Todėl prašau, duok, ką ras tavo ranka, savo tarnams ir savo sūnui Dovydui’ ”.

⁹When David’s young men came, they spoke to Nabal according to all those words in the name of David, and ceased.

⁹Dovydo jaunuoliai atėję kalbėjo Nabalui visus tuos žodžius Dovydo vardu ir laukė atsakymo.

¹⁰Nabal answered David’s servants, and said, “Who is David? Who is the son of Jesse? There are many servants who break away from their masters these days.

¹⁰Nabalas atsakė Dovydo tarnams: “Kas yra Dovydas? Kas yra Jesės sūnus? Šiandien yra daug pabėgusių nuo savo valdovų tarnų.

¹¹Shall I then take my bread, and my water, and my meat that I have killed for my shearers, and give it to men who I don’t know where they come from?”

¹¹Argi aš atiduosiu duoną, vandenį ir mėsą, kurią prirengiau kirpėjams, žmonėms, apie kuriuos nežinau, iš kur jie?”

¹²So David’s young men turned on their way, and went back, and came and told him according to all these words.

¹²Dovydo jaunuoliai grįžo atgal ir papasakojo jam viską, ką buvo girdėję.

¹³David said to his men, “Every man put on his sword!” Every man put on his sword. David also put on his sword. About four hundred men followed David; and two hundred stayed by the baggage.

¹³Dovydas tarė savo vyrams: “Kiekvienas prisijuoskite kardą”. Visi apsiginklavo ir maždaug keturi šimtai vyrų sekė Dovydą, o du šimtai pasiliko prie daiktų.

¹⁴But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal’s wife, saying, “Behold, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to Greet our master; and he railed at them.

¹⁴Tuo metu vienas Nabalo tarnų pranešė Nabalo žmonai Abigailei: “Dovydas atsiuntė iš dykumos pasiuntinius mūsų šeimininko pasveikinti, o tas juos išplūdo.

¹⁵But the men were very good to us, and we were not hurt, neither missed we anything, as long as we went with them, when we were in the fields.

¹⁵Tie vyrai buvo mums labai geri. Jie mums nepadarė jokios skriaudos, mes nieko nepasigedome per visą laiką, kurį praleidome drauge su jais.

¹⁶They were a wall to us both by night and by day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.

¹⁶Jie buvo mums siena naktį ir dieną, kai bandą ganėme netoli jų.

¹⁷Now therefore know and consider what you will do; for evil is determined against our master, and against all his house; for he is such a worthless fellow that one can’t speak to him.”

¹⁷Taigi dabar pagalvok ir nuspręsk, ką darysi. Nelaimė tikrai gresia mūsų šeimininkui ir visai jo šeimynai. Jis yra Belialo vaikas, su kuriuo neįmanoma kalbėti”.

¹⁸Then Abigail hurried and took two hundred loaves of bread, two bottles of wine, five sheep ready dressed, five measures of parched grain, one hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and laid them on donkeys.

¹⁸Abigailė skubiai paėmė du šimtus duonos kepalų, dvi odines vyno, penkias paruoštas avis, penkis saikus skrudintų grūdų, šimtą džiovintų vynuogių kekių, du šimtus figų pyragaičių ir sukrovė ant asilų.

¹⁹She said to her young men, “Go on before me. Behold, I come after you.” But she didn’t tell her husband, Nabal.

¹⁹Ji įsakė savo tarnams: “Eikite pirma manęs, o aš eisiu paskui jus”. Savo vyrui Nabalui ji nieko nesakė.

²⁰It was so, as she rode on her donkey, and came down by the covert of the mountain, that behold, David and his men came down toward her; and she met them.

²⁰Jodama ant asilo kalno pašlaite, ji sutiko Dovydą ir jo vyrus, ateinančius priešais.

²¹Now David had said, “Surely in vain have I kept all that this fellow has in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that pertained to him. He has returned me evil for good.

²¹Dovydas buvo pasakęs: “Veltui saugojau dykumoje visa, kas Nabalui priklauso taip, kad jis nieko nepasigedo. Jis man atsilygino piktu už gera.

²²God do so to the enemies of David, and more also, if I leave of all that belongs to him by the morning light so much as one who urinates on a wall. or, male. ”

²²Tegul Dievas tai ir dar daugiau padaro su Dovydo priešais, jei iki ryto palikčiau gyvą bent vieną jo vyrų”.

²³When Abigail saw David, she hurried, and alighted from her donkey, and fell before David on her face, and bowed herself to the ground.

²³Abigailė, pamačiusi Dovydą, skubiai nulipo nuo asilo, parpuolė prieš Dovydą ir nusilenkė iki žemės.

²⁴She fell at his feet, and said, “On me, my lord, on me be the iniquity; and please let your handmaid speak in your ears. Hear the words of your handmaid.

²⁴Parpuolusi prie jo kojų, kalbėjo: “Valdove, ant manęs tebūna kaltė. Meldžiu, leisk savo tarnaitei kalbėti ir išklausyk ją.

²⁵Please don’t let my lord regard this worthless fellow, even Nabal; for as his name is, so is he. Nabal is his name, and folly is with him; but I, your handmaid, didn’t see the young men of my lord, whom you sent.

²⁵Mano valdove, prašau nekreipti dėmesio į tą Belialo žmogų Nabalą, nes koks jo vardas, toks ir jis pats. Nabalas jo vardas ir jis pilnas kvailumo. Aš, tavo tarnaitė, nemačiau savo valdovo jaunuolių, kuriuos buvai atsiuntęs.

²⁶Now therefore, my lord, as Yahweh lives, and as your soul lives, since Yahweh has withheld you from blood guiltiness, and from avenging yourself with your own hand, now therefore let your enemies, and those who seek evil to my lord, be as Nabal.

²⁶Dabar, mano valdove, kaip Viešpats gyvas ir gyva tavo siela, Viešpats sulaikė tave, kad nenusikalstum, praliedamas kraują ir keršydamas savo ranka. Tavo priešai, kurie siekia pikto mano valdovui, tegul tampa kaip Nabalas.

²⁷Now this present which your servant has brought to my lord, let it be given to the young men who follow my lord.

²⁷Štai dovanos, kurias tavo tarnaitė atgabeno savo valdovui, atiduok jas jaunuoliams, kurie seka mano valdovą.

²⁸Please forgive the trespass of your handmaid. For Yahweh will certainly make my lord a sure house, because my lord fights the battles of Yahweh; and evil shall not be found in you all your days.

²⁸Atleisk savo tarnaitei nusikaltimą. Viešpats tikrai pastatys mano valdovui tvirtus namus, nes tu kovoji Viešpaties kovas ir tavyje nerasta blogio per visas tavo dienas.

²⁹Though men may rise up to pursue you, and to seek your soul, yet the soul of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of life with Yahweh your God. He will sling out the souls of your enemies, as from the hollow of a sling.

²⁹O jei kas tave persekiotų ir tavo gyvybės ieškotų, tai Viešpats, tavo Dievas, saugos tave, o tavo priešų sielas Jis nusvies kaip mėtykle.

³⁰It shall come to pass, when Yahweh has done to my lord according to all the good that he has spoken concerning you, and shall have appointed you prince over Israel,

³⁰Kai Viešpats įvykdys visa, ką Jis tau pažadėjo, ir tave padarys Izraelio valdovu,

³¹that this shall be no grief to you, nor offense of heart to my lord, either that you have shed blood without cause, or that my lord has avenged himself. When Yahweh has dealt well with my lord, then remember your handmaid.”

³¹tai nereikės mano valdovui liūdėti ir jo širdis nesigrauš, kad be reikalo praliejai kraują, norėdamas pats atkeršyti. Kai Viešpats padarys gera mano valdovui, atsimink savo tarnaitę”.

³²David said to Abigail, “Blessed is Yahweh, the God of Israel, who sent you this day to meet me!

³²Dovydas atsakė Abigailei: “Palaimintas Viešpats, Izraelio Dievas, kuris šiandien atsiuntė tave manęs pasitikti.

³³Blessed is your discretion, and blessed are you, that have kept me this day from blood guiltiness, and from avenging myself with my own hand.

³³Palaimintas tavo patarimas ir palaiminta tu, nes šiandien mane sulaikei nuo kraujo praliejimo ir sukliudei man pačiam už save atkeršyti.

³⁴For indeed, as Yahweh, the God of Israel, lives, who has withheld me from hurting you, unless you had hurried and come to meet me, surely there wouldn’t have been left to Nabal by the morning light so much as one who urinates on a wall. or, male. ”

³⁴Tikrai, kaip gyvas Viešpats, Izraelio Dievas, kuris man neleido tavęs nuskriausti, jei nebūtum paskubėjusi manęs pasitikti, iki ryto aušros nebūtų likę Nabalui nė vieno vyro”.

³⁵So David received of her hand that which she had brought him: and he said to her, “Go up in peace to your house. Behold, I have listened to your voice, and have granted your request.”

³⁵Dovydas priėmė iš jos viską, ką ji jam atgabeno, ir tarė: “Eik rami į savo namus. Aš paklausiau tavo balso ir tavęs nepaniekinau”.

³⁶Abigail came to Nabal; and behold, he held a feast in his house, like the feast of a king. Nabal’s heart was merry within him, for he was very drunken. Therefore she told him nothing, less or more, until the morning light.

³⁶Abigailė sugrįžo pas Nabalą. Jis tuo metu buvo iškėlęs namuose karališką puotą. Nabalas buvo linksmas ir labai girtas, todėl ji jam nieko nesakė iki ryto.

³⁷It happened in the morning, when the wine was gone out of Nabal, that his wife told him these things, and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.

³⁷Rytą, Nabalui išsiblaivius, jo žmona jam viską papasakojo. Tuomet jo širdis apmirė jame ir jis sustingo kaip akmuo.

³⁸It happened about ten days after, that Yahweh struck Nabal, so that he died.

³⁸Praėjus maždaug dešimčiai dienų, Viešpats ištiko Nabalą, ir jis mirė.

³⁹When David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, “Blessed is Yahweh, who has pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and has kept back his servant from evil. Yahweh has returned the evildoing of Nabal on his own head.” David sent and spoke concerning Abigail, to take her to him as wife.

³⁹Dovydas, išgirdęs, kad Nabalas mirė, tarė: “Palaimintas Viešpats, kuris įvykdė teismą Nabalui už man padarytą įžeidimą ir apsaugojo mane nuo pikto. Viešpats sugrąžino Nabalo nusikaltimą ant jo galvos”. Ir Dovydas pasiuntė pasiuntinius ir kalbėjo Abigailei, kad nori ją vesti.

⁴⁰When the servants of David had come to Abigail to Carmel, they spoke to her, saying, “David has sent us to you, to take you to him as wife.”

⁴⁰Dovydo tarnai, nuėję pas Abigailę į Karmelį, jai kalbėjo: “Dovydas mus atsiuntė pas tave pasakyti, kad jis nori tave vesti”.

⁴¹She arose, and bowed herself with her face to the earth, and said, “Behold, your handmaid is a servant to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.”

⁴¹Ji nusilenkė iki žemės ir tarė: “Štai tavo tarnaitė, kad tarnautų ir plautų savo valdovo tarnų kojas”.

⁴²Abigail hurried, and arose, and rode on a donkey, with five ladies of hers who followed her; and she went after the messengers of David, and became his wife.

⁴²Abigailė skubiai pasiruošė, užsėdo ant asilo ir su penkiomis tarnaitėmis sekė paskui Dovydo pasiuntinius ir tapo jo žmona.

⁴³David also took Ahinoam of Jezreel; and they both became his wives.

⁴³Dovydas dar vedė Ahinoamą iš Jezreelio, ir jos abi buvo jo žmonos.

⁴⁴Now Saul had given Michal his daughter, David’s wife, to Palti the son of Laish, who was of Gallim.

⁴⁴Saulius atidavė savo dukterį Mikalę, Dovydo žmoną, Laišo sūnui Palčiui iš Galimo.
