Judges 3
1 These are the nations that the LORD left to test all the Israelites who had not known any of the wars in Canaan,
Šie nu ir tie pagāni, ko Tas Kungs atstāja, ka Viņš caur tiem Israēli kārdinātu, kas nekā nezināja no Kanaāna kariem;
2 if only to teach warfare to the subsequent generations of Israel, especially to those who had not known it formerly:
Lai Israēla bērnu pēcnākamie zinātu un mācītos karu, tie, kas no tā vēl nekā nezināja.
3 the five rulers of the Philistines, all the Canaanites, the Sidonians, and the Hivites who lived in the mountains of Lebanon from Mount Baal-hermon to Lebo-hamath.
Pieci Fīlistu valdnieki un visi Kanaānieši un Sidonieši un Hivieši, kas dzīvoja Lībanus kalnos, un no BaālErmona kalna līdz Hamatai.
4 These nations were left to test the Israelites, to find out whether they would keep the commandments of the LORD, which He had given their fathers through Moses.
Šie tad bija, lai Israēls caur tiem tiktu kārdināts, ka taptu zināms, vai tie klausīs Tā Kunga baušļiem, ko Viņš viņu tēviem bija pavēlējis caur Mozu.
5 Thus the Israelites continued to live among the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.
Un Israēla bērni dzīvoja vidū starp Kanaāniešiem, Hetiešiem un Amoriešiem un Fereziešiem un Hiviešiem un Jebusiešiem.
6 And they took the daughters of these people in marriage, gave their own daughters to their sons, and served their gods.
Un tie sev ņēma viņu meitas par sievām un deva savas meitas viņu dēliem un kalpoja viņu dieviem,
7 So the Israelites did evil in the sight of the LORD; they forgot the LORD their God and served the Baals and the Asherahs.
Un Israēla bērni darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika, un aizmirsa To Kungu, savu Dievu, un kalpoja Baāliem un Astartēm.
8 Then the anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He sold them into the hand of Cushan-rishathaim king of Aram-naharaim, and the Israelites served him eight years.
Tad Tā Kunga bardzība iedegās pret Israēli un Viņš tos pārdeva Kuzan Rizataīma, Mezopotamijas ķēniņa, rokā, un Israēla bērni kalpoja Kuzan Rizataīmam astoņus gadus.
9 But when the Israelites cried out to the LORD, He raised up Othniel son of Caleb’s younger brother Kenaz as a deliverer to save them.
Tad Israēla bērni brēca uz To Kungu, un Tas Kungs Israēla bērniem cēla pestītāju, kas tos izpestīja, Otniēli, Ķenasa, Kāleba jaunākā brāļa, dēlu.
10 The Spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he became Israel’s judge and went out to war. And the LORD delivered Cushan-rishathaim king of Aram into the hand of Othniel, who prevailed against him.
Un Tā Kunga Gars bija uz viņu, un viņš bija par soģi Israēlim un izgāja karā, un Tas Kungs deva viņa rokā Kuzan Rizataīmu, Mezopotamijas ķēniņu, un viņa roka bija stipra pār Kuzan Rizataīmu.
11 So the land had rest for forty years, until Othniel son of Kenaz died.
Tad zemei bija miers četrdesmit gadus, un Otniēls, Ķenasa dēls, nomira.
12 Once again the Israelites did evil in the sight of the LORD. So He gave Eglon king of Moab power over Israel, because they had done evil in the sight of the LORD.
Bet Israēla bērni joprojām darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika. Tad Tas Kungs stiprināja Eglonu, Moaba ķēniņu, pret Israēli, tāpēc, ka tie darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika.
13 After enlisting the Ammonites and Amalekites to join forces with him, Eglon attacked and defeated Israel, taking possession of the City of Palms.
Un viņš sapulcēja pie sevis Amona bērnus un Amaleku, un cēlās un kāva Israēli, un tie ieņēma to palmu pilsētu.
14 The Israelites served Eglon king of Moab eighteen years.
Un Israēla bērni kalpoja Eglonam, Moaba ķēniņam, astoņpadsmit gadus.
15 And again they cried out to the LORD, and He raised up Ehud son of Gera, a left-handed Benjamite, as their deliverer. So they sent him with tribute to Eglon king of Moab.
Tad Israēla bērni brēca uz To Kungu, un Tas Kungs tiem cēla par pestītāju Eūdu, Ģerus dēlu, no Benjamina cilts; tas bija kreilis, un Israēla bērni caur viņu sūtīja dāvanu Eglonam, Moaba ķēniņam.
16 Now Ehud had made for himself a double-edged sword a cubit long. He strapped it to his right thigh under his cloak
Un Eūds taisīja sev abējās pusēs griezīgu zobenu, olekts garumā, un to apjoza apakš savām drēbēm pie savas labās ciskas.
17 and brought the tribute to Eglon king of Moab, who was an obese man.
Un viņš Eglonam, Moaba ķēniņam, nonesa dāvanas, un Eglons bija ļoti resns vīrs.
18 After Ehud had finished presenting the tribute, he ushered out those who had carried it.
Un kad viņš to dāvanu bija nodevis, tad viņš tos ļaudis atlaida, kas to dāvanu bija nesuši.
19 But upon reaching the idols near Gilgal, he himself turned back and said, “I have a secret message for you, O king.” “Silence,” said the king, and all his attendants left him.
Bet viņš griezās atpakaļ no tiem elku stabiem, kas bija Gilgalā un sacīja: man viens noslēpums tev jāsaka, ķēniņ. Un tas sacīja: klusu! Tad visi izgāja ārā, kas ap viņu stāvēja.
20 Then Ehud approached him while he was sitting alone in the coolness of his upper room. “I have a word from God for you,” Ehud said, and the king rose from his seat.
Un Eūds pie viņa pienāca; bet viņš sēdēja kādā dzestrā kambarī, kas bija viņam vienam. Tad Eūds sacīja: man ir Dieva vārds uz tevi. Tad viņš cēlās no tā krēsla.
21 And Ehud reached with his left hand, pulled the sword from his right thigh, and plunged it into Eglon’s belly.
Un Eūds izstiepa savu kreiso roku un ņēma to zobenu no savas labās ciskas un to viņam iedūra vēderā,
22 Even the handle sank in after the blade, and Eglon’s fat closed in over it, so that Ehud did not withdraw the sword from his belly. And Eglon’s bowels emptied.
Ka gan asmens, gan spals iegāja, un tie tauki to asmeni apklāja, jo viņš to zobenu no viņa vēdera neizvilka, un tas izgāja pakaļā cauri.
23 Then Ehud went out through the porch, closing and locking the doors of the upper room behind him.
Tad Eūds izgāja ārā un aizslēdza tā kambara durvis aiz sevis un tās aizšāva.
24 After Ehud was gone, Eglon’s servants came in and found the doors of the upper room locked. “He must be relieving himself in the cool room,” they said.
Kad tas nu bija izgājis, tad viņa kalpi nāca, un redzēja, un lūk, kambara durvis bija aizslēgtas. Un tie sacīja: viņš gan savas kājas apklāj tai dzestrā kambarī.
25 So they waited until they became worried and saw that he had still not opened the doors of the upper room. Then they took the key and opened the doors—and there was their lord lying dead on the floor.
Kad tie nu gaidīja tik ilgi, ka paši kaunējās, un redzi, viņš tā kambara durvis neatdarīja, tad viņi ņēma atslēgu un atslēdza, un redzi, viņu kungs gulēja pie zemes nomiris.
26 Ehud, however, had escaped while the servants waited. He passed by the idols and escaped to Seirah.
Un Eūds izmuka, kamēr tie gaidīja, jo viņš gāja gar tiem elku stabiem un aizmuka uz Seīratu.
27 On arriving in Seirah, he blew the ram’s horn throughout the hill country of Ephraim. The Israelites came down with him from the hills, and he became their leader.
Un kad viņš tur nonāca, tad viņš pūta trumetē uz Efraīma kalniem, un Israēla bērni nogāja ar viņu no tiem kalniem un viņš pats viņu priekšā.
28 “Follow me,” he told them, “for the LORD has delivered your enemies the Moabites into your hand.” So they followed him down and seized the fords of the Jordan leading to Moab, and did not allow anyone to cross over.
Un viņš uz tiem sacīja: steidzaties man pakaļ, jo Tas Kungs devis jūsu rokā jūsu ienaidniekus, tos Moabiešus. Un tie nogāja viņam pakaļ un uzņēma Jardānes pārejamo vietu, kas pret Moabu, un nevienu nelaida pāri.
29 At that time they struck down about ten thousand Moabites, all robust and valiant men. Not one of them escaped.
Un tie kāva no Moabiešiem tanī laikā kādus desmit tūkstoš vīrus, visus brangus un visus stiprus, ka neviens neizspruka.
30 So Moab was subdued under the hand of Israel that day, and the land had rest for eighty years.
Tad Moabs tai dienā tapa pazemots apakš Israēla bērnu rokas, un zemei bija miers astoņdesmit gadus.
31 After Ehud came Shamgar son of Anath. And he too saved Israel, striking down six hundred Philistines with an oxgoad.
Un pēc viņa bija Zamgars, Anata dēls, tas kāva no Fīlistiem sešsimt vīrus ar vēršu dzenamo. Tā viņš arīdzan Israēli izpestīja.
