< Jeremias 41 >
1 The word that came to Jeremias from the Lord (now Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, and all his army, and all the country of his dominion, were warring against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Juda, ) saying,
Bet septītā mēnesī Ismaēls, Netanijas dēls, Elišama dēla dēls, no ķēniņa dzimuma, un ķēniņa virsnieki nāca līdz ar desmit vīriem pie Ģedalijas, Aīkama dēla, uz Micpu, un tie tur kopā ēda maizi Micpā.
2 Thus has the Lord said; Go to Sedekias king of Juda, and you shall say to him, Thus has the Lord said, This city shall certainly be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it, and shall burn it with fire:
Un Ismaēls, Netanijas dēls, cēlās ar tiem desmit vīriem, kas pie viņa bija, un sita ar zobenu Ģedaliju, Aīkama dēlu, Safana dēla dēlu; tā viņš to nokāva, ko Bābeles ķēniņš bija iecēlis pār to zemi.
3 and you shall not escape out of his hand, but shall certainly be taken, and shall be given into his hands; and your eyes shall see his eyes, and you shall enter into Babylon.
Un Ismaēls kāva arī visus Jūdus, kas Micpā bija pie viņa, pie Ģedalijas, un tos Kaldejus, kas tur atradās, tos karavīrus.
4 But hear the word of the Lord, O Sedekias king of Juda; Thus says the Lord,
Un otrā dienā pēc Ģedalijas nokaušanas, kad neviens par to nezināja,
5 You shall die in peace: and as they wept for your fathers that reigned before you, they shall weep also for you, [saying], Ah lord! and they shall lament for you down to the grave: for I have spoken the word, said the Lord.
Tad vīri nāca no Sihemas, no Šīlo un no Samarijas, astoņdesmit vīri, ar nodzītu bārdu un saplēstām drēbēm un iegraizītām miesām, un viņu rokā bija ēdams upuris un vīraks, ka to nestu Tā Kunga namā.
6 And Jeremias spoke to king Sedekias all these words in Jerusalem.
Un Ismaēls, Netanijas dēls, izgāja no Micpas viņiem pretī, un raudāja iedams. Un kad tos sastapa, tad viņš uz tiem sacīja: nāciet pie Ģedalijas, Aīkama dēla.
7 And the host of the king of Babylon warred against Jerusalem, and against the cities of Juda, and against Lachis, and against Azeca: for these strong cities were left amongst the cities of Juda.
Bet kad tie nāca pilsētas vidū, tad Ismaēls, Netanijas dēls, tos nokāva (un iemeta) bedrē, viņš un tie vīri, kas bija pie viņa.
8 The word that came from the Lord to Jeremias, after king Sedekias had concluded a covenant with the people, to proclaim a release;
Bet starp tiem bija desmit vīri, tie sacīja uz Ismaēli: nenokauj mūs, jo mums ir apslēptas mantas tīrumā, kvieši un mieži un eļļa un medus. Tad viņš tos atstāja un nenokāva ar viņu brāļiem.
9 That every one should set at liberty his servant, and every one has handmaid, the Hebrew man and Hebrew woman, that no man of Juda should be a bondman.
Un tā bedre, kurp Ismaēls nometa to vīru līķus, ko viņš līdz ar Ģedaliju bija nokāvis, bija tā pati, ko ķēniņš Asa bija racis pret Baešu, Israēla ķēniņu; šo Ismaēls, Netanijas dēls, pildīja ar tiem nokautiem.
10 Then all the nobles, and all the people who had entered into the covenant, [engaging] to set free every one his man-servant, and every one his maid, turned,
Un Ismaēls aizveda visus atlikušos ļaudis, kas bija Micpā, proti ķēniņa meitas un visus ļaudis, kas Micpā bija atstāti, ko pils karavīru virsnieks Nebuzaradans bija atstājis pie Ģedalijas, Aīkama dēla, un Ismaēls, Netanijas dēls, tos aizveda un gāja pāri pie Amona bērniem.
11 and gave them over to be menservants and maidservants.
Kad nu Jehohanans, Kareūs dēls, un visi kara virsnieki, kas bija pie viņa, dzirdēja to ļaunumu, ko Ismaēls, Netanijas dēls, bija darījis,
12 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, saying,
Tad tie ņēma visus (kara)vīrus, un gāja karot pret Ismaēli, Netanijas dēlu, un to atrada pie tā lielā ūdens, kas ir pie Gibeonas.
13 Thus says the Lord; I made a covenant with your fathers in the day wherein I took them out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying,
Un kad visi ļaudis, kas bija pie Ismaēla, redzēja Jehohananu, Kareūs dēlu, un visus kara virsniekus, kas pie viņa, tad tie priecājās.
14 When six years are accomplished, you shall set free your brother the Hebrew, who shall be sold to you: for he shall serve you six years, and [then] you shall let him go free: but they listened not to me, and inclined not their ear.
Un visi ļaudis, ko Ismaēls no Micpas bija aizvedis, griezās un gāja atpakaļ pie Jehohanana, Kareūs dēla.
15 And this day they turned to do that which was right in my sight, to proclaim every one the release of his neighbour; and they had concluded a covenant before me, in the house whereon my name is called.
Tomēr Ismaēls, Netanijas dēls, ar astoņiem vīriem izmuka no Jehohanana un gāja pie Amona bērniem.
16 But you turned and profaned my name, to bring back every one his servant, and every one his handmaid, whom you had sent forth free [and] at their own disposal, to be to you menservants and maidservants.
Tad Jehohanans, Kareūs dēls, un visi kara virsnieki, kas bija pie viņa, paņēma visus atlikušos ļaudis, ko viņš atkal bija atvedis no Ismaēla, Netanijas dēla, no Micpas, kad šis bija nokāvis Ģedaliju, Aīkama dēlu, karavīrus, sievas un bērnus un ķēniņa sulaiņus, ko viņš no Gibeonas atkal bija atvedis,
17 Therefore thus said the Lord; You have not listened to me, to proclaim a release every one to his neighbour: behold, I proclaim a release to you, to the sword, and to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will give you up to dispersion [amongst] all the kingdoms of the earth.
Un gāja un apmetās Ķimkama mājas vietā pie Bētlemes, iedami uz Ēģipti Kaldeju priekšā.
18 And I will give the men that have transgressed my covenant, who have not kept my covenant, which they made before me, the calf which they prepared to sacrifice with it,
Jo tie bijās no viņiem, tāpēc ka Ismaēls, Netanijas dēls, bija nokāvis Ģedaliju, Aīkama dēlu, ko Bābeles ķēniņš bija iecēlis pār to zemi.
19 the princes of Juda, and the men in power, and the priests, and the people;
20 I will even give them to their enemies, and their carcases shall be food for the birds of the sky and for the wild beasts of the earth.
21 And I will give Sedekias king of Judea, and their princes, into the hands of their enemies, and the host of the king of Babylon [shall come upon] them that run away from them.
22 Behold, I [will] give command, says the Lord, and will bring them back to this land; and they shall fight against it, and take it, and burn it with fire, and the cities of Juda; and I will make them desolate without inhabitants.
