< 2 Kings 12 >
1 In the seventh year of Jehu, Joash became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem forty years. His mother’s name was Zibiah; she was from Beersheba.
Jeūs septītā gadā Joas palika par ķēniņu un valdīja četrdesmit gadus Jeruzālemē. Un viņa mātei bija vārds Cibea no Bēršebas.
2 And Joash did what was right in the eyes of the LORD all the days he was instructed by Jehoiada the priest.
Un Joas darīja, kas Tam Kungam labi patika, visu savu mūžu, kamēr priesteris Jojada viņu mācīja.
3 Nevertheless, the high places were not removed; the people continued sacrificing and burning incense there.
Tikai kalnu altāri netapa nopostīti; jo tie ļaudis upurēja un kvēpināja vēl uz tiem kalnu altāriem.
4 Then Joash said to the priests, “Collect all the money brought as sacred gifts into the house of the LORD—the census money, the money from vows, and the money brought voluntarily into the house of the LORD.
Un Joas sacīja uz tiem priesteriem: visu naudu, kas top dota Dievam par godu un nāk Tā Kunga namā, naudu, kas iet uz galvām, visu naudu, ko spriež par dvēseli, un visu naudu, ko dod no labprātības Tā Kunga namā,
5 Let every priest receive it from his constituency, and let it be used to repair any damage found in the temple.”
To priesteriem būs ņemt, ikkatram no sava pazīstama, un tiem būs izlabot tā nama plīsumus visur, kur tie plīsumus atrod.
6 By the twenty-third year of the reign of Joash, however, the priests had not yet repaired the damage to the temple.
Un notikās ķēniņa Joasa divdesmit un trešā gadā, ka tie priesteri nebija labojuši tā nama plīsumus,
7 So King Joash called Jehoiada and the other priests and said, “Why have you not repaired the damage to the temple? Now, therefore, take no more money from your constituency, but hand it over for the repair of the temple.”
Tad ķēniņš Joas aicināja priesteri Jojadu un tos citus priesterus un uz tiem sacīja: kāpēc jūs nelabojiet tā nama plīsumus. Un nu jums vairs nebūs ņemt naudu no saviem pazīstamiem, bet to dot priekš tā nama plīsumiem.
8 So the priests agreed that they would not receive money from the people and that they would not repair the temple themselves.
Tad tie priesteri bija mierā, naudas no ļaudīm vairs neņemt, nedz nama plīsumus izlabot.
9 Then Jehoiada the priest took a chest, bored a hole in its lid, and set it beside the altar on the right side as one enters the house of the LORD. There the priests who guarded the threshold put all the money brought into the house of the LORD.
Un priesteris Jojada ņēma šķirstu un ieurba tā vākā caurumu, un to lika sānis altārim pa labo roku; kad kāds nāca Tā Kunga namā, tad tie priesteri, kas slieksni sargāja, tur ielika to naudu, ko ienesa Tā Kunga namā.
10 Whenever they saw that there was a large amount of money in the chest, the royal scribe and the high priest would go up, count the money brought into the house of the LORD, and tie it up in bags.
Kad nu redzēja daudz naudas šķirstā esam, tad ķēniņa skrīveris un augstais priesteris nāca un sasēja un skaitīja to naudu, ko atrada Tā Kunga namā.
11 Then they would put the counted money into the hands of those who supervised the work on the house of the LORD, who in turn would pay those doing the work—the carpenters, builders,
Un tie to naudu ieskaitīja rokā darba uzraugiem, kas bija iecelti pār Tā Kunga namu. Un tie to izdeva amatniekiem un nama būvētājiem, kas pie Tā Kunga nama strādāja,
12 masons, and stonecutters. They also purchased timber and dressed stone to repair the damage to the house of the LORD, and they paid the other expenses of the temple repairs.
Un mūrniekiem un akmeņu cirtējiem, pirkt kokus un cirstus akmeņus, izlabot Tā Kunga nama plīsumus un izdot par visu, kas bija vajadzīgs, izlabot Tā Kunga namu.
13 However, the money brought into the house of the LORD was not used for making silver basins, wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls, trumpets, or any articles of gold or silver for the house of the LORD.
Bet sudraba kausus, nažus, bļodas, trumetes un visādas zelta un sudraba lietas priekš Tā Kunga nama netaisīja no tās naudas, ko sanesa Tā Kunga namā,
14 Instead, it was paid to those doing the work, and with it they repaired the house of the LORD.
Bet tie to deva strādniekiem, izlabot ar to Tā Kunga namu.
15 No accounting was required from the men who received the money to pay the workmen, because they acted with integrity.
Un atbildēšanu neprasīja no tiem vīriem, kam tā nauda bija dota, to dot strādniekiem, bet tie to darīja uz ticību.
16 The money from the guilt offerings and sin offerings was not brought into the house of the LORD; it belonged to the priests.
Nauda no noziegumu upuriem un nauda no grēku upuriem netapa nesta Tā Kunga namā, tā nācās priesteriem.
17 At that time Hazael king of Aram marched up and fought against Gath and captured it. Then he decided to attack Jerusalem.
To brīdi Azaēls, Sīriešu ķēniņš, cēlās un karoja pret Gatu un to uzņēma. Un Azaēls griezās iet pret Jeruzālemi.
18 So King Joash of Judah took all the sacred objects dedicated by his fathers—Jehoshaphat, Jehoram, and Ahaziah, the kings of Judah—along with his own consecrated items and all the gold found in the treasuries of the house of the LORD and the royal palace, and he sent them to Hazael king of Aram. So Hazael withdrew from Jerusalem.
Tad Joas, Jūda ķēniņš, ņēma visas svētās dāvanas, ko viņa tēvi Jehošafats un Jehorams un Ahazija, Jūda ķēniņi, Dievam bija dāvinājuši, ir tās dāvanas, ko viņš pats bija devis, un visu zeltu, kas atradās Tā Kunga namā un pie ķēniņa nama mantām, un to sūtīja Azaēlim, Sīriešu ķēniņam. Tad šis aizgāja no Jeruzālemes.
19 As for the rest of the acts of Joash, along with all his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
Un kas vēl par Joasu stāstāms, un viss, ko viņš darījis, tas ir rakstīts Jūda ķēniņu laiku grāmatā.
20 And the servants of Joash rose up and formed a conspiracy and killed him at Beth-millo, on the road down to Silla.
Un viņa kalpi cēlās un derēja derību un nokāva Joasu Millus namā, kur iet uz Sillu.
21 His servants Jozabad son of Shimeath and Jehozabad son of Shomer struck him down, and he died. And they buried him with his fathers in the City of David, and his son Amaziah reigned in his place.
Jo Jozakars, Šimeata dēls, un Jozabats, Šomera dēls, viņa kalpi, to nokāva, ka tas nomira; un viņu apraka pie viņa tēviem Dāvida pilī. Un viņa dēls Amacīja palika par ķēniņu viņa vietā.
