2 Chronicles 29
1 And so Hezekiah began to reign when he was twenty-five years old. And he reigned for twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah.
Hizkija, divdesmit piecus gadus vecs, palika par ķēniņu un valdīja divdesmit deviņus gadus Jeruzālemē. Un viņa mātei bija vārds Abija, Zaharijas meita.
2 And he did what was pleasing in the sight of the Lord, in accord with all that his father David had done.
Un viņš darīja, kas Tam Kungam labi patika, tā kā viņa tēvs Dāvids bija darījis.
3 In the first year and month of his reign, he opened the double doors of the house of the Lord, and he repaired them.
Savas valdīšanas pirmā gadā, pirmā mēnesī, viņš atdarīja atkal Tā Kunga nama durvis un tās sataisīja.
4 And he brought together the priests and Levites. And he gathered them in the wide eastern street.
Un viņš lika nākt priesteriem un levitiem un tos sapulcināja tai pagalmā pret rītiem
5 And he said to them: “Listen to me, O Levites, and be sanctified. Cleanse the house of the Lord, the God of your fathers, and take away every uncleanness from the sanctuary.
Un uz tiem sacīja: klausiet mani, jūs leviti, svētījaties nu paši un svētījat Tā Kunga, savu tēvu Dieva, namu un izmetat to nešķīstību no tās svētās vietas.
6 Our fathers sinned and did evil in the sight of the Lord our God, abandoning him. They turned their faces away from the tabernacle of the Lord, and they presented their backs.
Jo mūsu tēvi grēkojuši un ļaunu darījuši Tā Kunga, mūsu Dieva, acīs, tie Viņu atstājuši un savu vaigu novērsuši no Tā Kunga dzīvokļa un tam griezuši muguru.
7 They closed up the doors which were in the portico, and they extinguished the lamps. And they did not burn incense, and they did not offer holocausts, in the sanctuary of the God of Israel.
Tie arī aizslēguši pagalma durvis un izdzēsuši tos eļļas lukturus un nav kvēpinājuši kvēpināmās zāles nedz upurējuši svētā vietā dedzināmos upurus Israēla Dievam.
8 And so the fury of the Lord was stirred up against Judah and Jerusalem, and he handed them over to turmoil, and to destruction, and to hissing, just as you discern with your own eyes.
Tādēļ Tā Kunga lielā bardzība nākusi pār Jūdu un Jeruzālemi, un Viņš tos darījis par riebumu un biedēkli un izsmieklu, tā kā paši redzat savām acīm.
9 Lo, our fathers have fallen by the sword. Our sons, and our daughters and wives have been led away as captives because of this wickedness.
Jo redzi, mūsu tēvi krituši caur zobenu, un mūsu dēli un mūsu meitas un mūsu sievas tādēļ ir cietumā.
10 Now therefore, it is pleasing to me that we should enter into a covenant with the Lord, the God of Israel. And he will turn away the fury of his indignation from us.
Tad nu tas ir manā sirdī, derību derēt ar To Kungu, Israēla Dievu, lai Viņa bargā dusmība no mums novēršas.
11 My sons, do not choose to be negligent. The Lord has chosen you so that you would stand before him, and minister to him, and worship him, and burn incense to him.”
Nu tad, mani dēli, neesat kūtri, jo Tas Kungs jūs ir izredzējis, ka jums Viņa priekšā būs stāvēt, Viņam kalpot un būt Viņa kalpiem un kvēpinātājiem.
12 Therefore, the Levites rose up, Mahath, the son of Amasai, and Joel, the son of Azariah, from the sons of Kohath; then, from the sons of Merari, Kish, the son of Abdi, and Azariah, the son of Jehallelel; and from the sons of Gershon, Joah, the son of Zimmah, and Eden, the son of Joah;
Tad cēlās tie leviti: Makats, Amasajus dēls, un Joēls, Azarijas dēls, no Kehāta bērniem. Un no Merarus bērniem: Ķis, Abdus dēls, un Azarija, Jealeleēļa dēls, un no Geršona bērniem: Joūs, Zimas dēls, un Edens, Joūs dēls,
13 and truly, from the sons of Elizaphan, Shimri and Jeuel; also, from the sons of Asaph, Zechariah and Mattaniah;
Un no Elicafana bērniem: Zimrus un Jeīels; un no Asafa bērniem: Zaharija un Matanija,
14 indeed also, from the sons of Heman, Jehuel and Shimei; then too, from the sons of Jeduthun, Shemaiah and Uzziel.
Un no Hemana bērniem: Jeiēls un Zemeja; un no Jedutuna bērniem: Šemaja un Uziēls.
15 And they gathered together their brothers. And they were sanctified. And they entered in accord with the command of the king and the order of the Lord, so that they might expiate the house of God.
Un tie sapulcināja savus brāļus un svētījās un nāca pēc ķēniņa pavēles, pēc Tā Kunga vārdiem šķīstīt Tā Kunga namu.
16 And the priests, entering the temple of the Lord so that they might sanctify it, took every uncleanness, which they had found inside, out to the vestibule of the house of the Lord; and the Levites took it away and transported it outside, to the torrent Kidron.
Un tie priesteri iegāja Tā Kunga namā, to šķīstīt, un izmeta Tā Kunga nama pagalmā visu nešķīstību, ko tie atrada Tā Kunga namā; un tie leviti to ņēma un izmeta ārā, Kidronas upē.
17 Now they began to cleanse on the first day of the first month. And on the eighth day of the same month, they entered the portico of the temple of the Lord. And then they expiated the temple over eight days. And on the sixteenth day of the same month, they finished what they had begun.
Un pirmā mēneša pirmā dienā tie sāka svētīt, un astotā mēneša dienā tie nāca Tā Kunga pagalmā un svētīja Tā Kunga namu astoņas dienas un pabeidza pirmā mēneša sešpadsmitā dienā.
18 Also, they entered to king Hezekiah, and they said to him: “We have sanctified the entire house of the Lord, and the altar of holocaust, and its vessels, indeed also the table of the presence, with all its vessels,
Pēc tam tie nāca pie ķēniņa Hizkijas iekšā un sacīja: mēs visu Tā Kunga namu esam šķīstījuši, arī dedzināmo upuru altāri un visus viņa rīkus un to svētās maizes galdu ar visiem viņa rīkiem,
19 and all the equipment of the temple, which king Ahaz, during his reign, had polluted after his transgression. And behold, these have all been set forth before the altar of the Lord.”
Un visus rīkus, ko ķēniņš Ahazs, kamēr valdīja, bija apgānījis caur saviem grēkiem, tos mēs esam atkal sataisījuši un svētījuši, un redzi, tie ir Tā Kunga altāra priekšā.
20 And rising up at first light, king Hezekiah joined as one all the leaders of the city, and they ascended to the house of the Lord.
Tad ķēniņš Hizkija agri cēlās un sapulcināja pilsētas virsniekus un gāja Tā Kunga namā.
21 And together they offered seven bulls and seven rams, seven lambs and seven he-goats, for sin, for the kingdom, for the Sanctuary, for Judah. And he spoke to the priests, the sons of Aaron, so that they would offer these upon the altar of the Lord.
Un tie atveda septiņus vēršus un septiņus aunus un septiņus jērus un septiņus āžus par grēku upuri priekš valstības un priekš tās svētās vietas un priekš Jūda. Un viņš pavēlēja Ārona bērniem, tiem priesteriem, upurēt uz Tā Kunga altāra.
22 And so they slaughtered the bulls. And the priests took up the blood, and they poured it upon the altar. Then they also slaughtered the rams, and they poured their blood upon the altar. And they immolated the lambs, and they poured the blood upon the altar.
Tad tie priesteri nokāva tos vēršus, saņēma tās asinis un tās slacināja uz altāri; tie nokāva arī tos aunus un slacināja tās asinis uz altāri, ir tos jērus tie nokāva un slacināja tās asinis uz altāri.
23 They brought the he-goats for sin before the king and the entire multitude. And they laid their hands upon them.
Tad tie atveda tos āžus par grēku upuri ķēniņa un visas draudzes priekšā, un šie savas rokas tiem uzlika.
24 And the priests immolated them, and they sprinkled their blood before the altar, for the expiation of all Israel. For certainly the king had instructed that the holocaust and the sin offering should be made on behalf of all Israel.
Un tie priesteri tos nokāva un slacināja viņu asinis pret altāri par grēku upuri, visu Israēli salīdzināt; jo ķēniņš to dedzināmo upuri un grēku upuri bija pavēlējis nest priekš visa Israēla.
25 Also, he situated the Levites in the house of the Lord, with cymbals, and psalteries, and harps, according to the disposition of king David, and of the seer Gad, and of the prophet Nathan. For indeed, this was the precept of the Lord, by the hand of his prophets.
Un viņš iecēla levitus Tā Kunga namā ar pulkstenīšiem, somastabulēm un koklēm pēc Dāvida un Gada, ķēniņa redzētāja, un pravieša Nātana pavēles; jo šī bija Tā Kunga pavēle caur viņa praviešiem.
26 And the Levites stood, holding the musical instruments of David, and the priests held the trumpets.
Tad nu tie leviti stāvēja ar Dāvida mūzikas rīkiem un tie priesteri ar bazūnēm.
27 And Hezekiah ordered that they should offer holocausts upon the altar. And when the holocausts were being offered, they began to sing praises to the Lord, and to sound the trumpets, and to play various musical instruments, which David, the king of Israel, had prepared.
Un Hizkija pavēlēja dedzināmo upuri upurēt uz altāra; un līdz kā dedzināmais upuris iesākās, sākās arī Tā Kunga dziesmas ar bazūnēm, vadītas no Dāvida, Israēla ķēniņa, mūzikas rīkiem.
28 Then the entire crowd was adoring, and the singers and those who were holding the trumpeters were exercising their office, until the holocaust was completed.
Un visa draudze metās zemē un dziesmas atskanēja un bazūnes bazūnēja no vienas vietas kamēr dedzināmais upuris bija pabeigts.
29 And when the oblation was finished, the king, and all who were with him, bowed down and adored.
Kad nu tas upuris bija pabeigts, tad ķēniņš nomētās ceļos un visi, kas pie viņa bija, un pielūdza.
30 And Hezekiah and the rulers instructed the Levites to praise the Lord with the words of David, and of Asaph, the seer. And they praised him with great joy, and kneeling down, they adored.
Un ķēniņš Hizkija un tie lielkungi pavēlēja levitiem, To Kungu slavēt ar Dāvida un ar redzētāja Asafa vārdiem, un tie slavēja priecādamies un metās zemē un pielūdza.
31 And now Hezekiah also added: “You have filled your hands for the Lord. Draw near, and offer victims and praises in the house of the Lord.” Therefore, the entire multitude offered victims and praises and holocausts, with devout intention.
Un Hizkija atbildēja un sacīja: nu jūs savas rokas esat pildījuši Tam Kungam, ejat klāt un nonesiet kaujamus upurus un pateicības upurus Tā Kunga namā. Un draudze atveda kaujamus upurus un pateicības upurus, un visi, kam bija labs prāts, dedzināmos upurus.
32 Now the number of the holocausts that the multitude offered was seventy bulls, one hundred rams, two hundred lambs.
Un to dedzināmo upuru skaits, ko draudze atnesa bija septiņdesmit vērši, simts auni, divsimt jēri; tie visi Tam Kungam bija par dedzināmo upuri.
33 And they sanctified to the Lord six hundred oxen and three thousand sheep.
Un to svēto pateicības upuru bija sešsimt vērši un trīs tūkstoš avis.
34 Truly, the priests were few; neither were they sufficient to remove the pelts from the holocausts. Therefore, the Levites, their brothers, also assisted them, until the work was completed, and the priests, who were of higher rank, were sanctified. For indeed, the Levites are sanctified with an easier ritual than the priests.
Bet priesteru bija par maz un tie nevarēja visus dedzināmos upurus nodīrāt; tāpēc viņu brāļi, tie leviti, tiem palīdzēja, tiekams darbs tapa pabeigts un tiekams tie priesteri bija svētījušies; jo tie leviti bija dedzīgāki bijuši savā sirdī svētīties nekā tie priesteri.
35 Thus, there were very numerous holocausts, with the fat of the peace offerings and the libations of the holocausts. And the service of the house of the Lord was completed.
Arī dedzināmo upuru bija liels skaits, līdz ar pateicības upuru taukiem un līdz ar dzeramiem upuriem pie tiem dedzināmiem upuriem. Tā tie pabeidza to kalpošanu pie Tā Kunga nama.
36 And Hezekiah and all the people were joyful because the ministry of the Lord was accomplished. For certainly, it had pleased them to do this suddenly.
Un Hizkija un visi ļaudis priecājās par to, ka Dievs tiem ļaudīm to bija novēlējis; jo šī lieta bija ātri notikusi.
