< 2 Kings 19 >
1 And when king Hezekiah had heard this, he tore his garments, and he covered himself with sackcloth, and he entered the house of the Lord.
Kad nu ķēniņš Hizkija to dzirdēja, tad viņš saplēsa savas drēbes un apvilka maisu un gāja Tā Kunga namā,
2 And he sent Eliakim, the first ruler of the house, and Shebnah, the scribe, and the elders from the priests, covered with sackcloth, to the prophet Isaiah, the son of Amoz.
Un sūtīja nama uzraugu Elijaķimu un skrīveri Šebnu un tos vecākos priesterus, maisos ģērbušos, pie pravieša Jesajas, Amoca dēla.
3 And they said to him: “Thus says Hezekiah: This day is a day of tribulation, and of rebuke, and of blasphemy. The sons are ready to be born, but the woman in labor does not have the strength.
Un tie uz viņu sacīja: tā saka Hizkija: šī diena ir bēdu un soda un kauna diena. Jo bērni nākuši uz dzimšanu un spēka nav dzemdēt.
4 Perhaps the Lord, your God, may hear all the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of the Assyrians, his lord, sent so that he would reproach the living God, and rebuke with words, which the Lord, your God, has heard. And so, offer a prayer on behalf of the remnant that has been found.”
Vai Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, nedzirdēs visus Rabzakus vārdus, ko viņa kungs, Asīrijas ķēniņš, ir sūtījis, zaimot to dzīvo Dievu, un nepārmācīs par tiem vārdiem, ko Viņš dzirdējis, Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs? Tāpēc celies un lūdz par tiem atlikušiem, kas vēl atrodas.
5 And the servants of king Hezekiah went to Isaiah.
Un ķēniņa Hizkijas kalpi nāca pie Jesajas.
6 And Isaiah said to them: “So shall you say to your lord. Thus says the Lord: Do not be afraid before the face of the words that you have heard, by which the servants of the king of the Assyrians have blasphemed me.
Un Jesaja uz tiem sacīja: tā jums savam kungam būs sacīt: tā saka Tas Kungs: “Nebīsties par tiem vārdiem, ko tu esi dzirdējis, ar ko Asīrijas ķēniņa sulaiņi Mani zaimojuši.
7 Behold, I will send a spirit to him, and he will hear a report, and he will return to his own land. And I will bring him down by the sword in his own land.”
Redzi, Es tam došu tādu garu, ka tas dzirdēs baumu un ies atpakaļ uz savu zemi, un Es viņam paša zemē likšu krist caur zobenu.”
8 Then Rabshakeh returned, and he found the king of the Assyrians fighting against Libnah. For he had heard that he had withdrawn from Lachish.
Kad nu Rabzakus gāja atpakaļ, tad viņš atrada Asīrijas ķēniņu pret Libnu karojam, jo viņš bija dzirdējis, ka tas no Laķisa jau bija aizgājis.
9 And when he had heard from Tirhakah, the king of Ethiopia, saying, “Behold, he has gone out so that he may fight against you,” and when he went forth against him, he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying:
Un kad viņš par Tiraku, Moru ķēniņu, dzirdēja sakām: redzi, viņš ir izgājis ar tevi karot, tad viņš atkal sūtīja vēstnešus pie Hizkijas un sacīja:
10 “So shall you say to Hezekiah, the king of Judah: Let not your God, in whom you trust, lead you astray. And you should not say, ‘Jerusalem will not be delivered into the hands of the king of the Assyrians.’
Tā runājiet uz Hizkiju, Jūda ķēniņu, un sakāt: lai tevi nepieviļ tavs Dievs, uz ko tu paļaujies, sacīdams: Jeruzāleme netaps rokā dota Asīrijas ķēniņam.
11 For you yourself have heard what the kings of the Assyrians have done to all the lands, the manner in which they have laid waste to them. Therefore, how would you alone be able to be freed?
Redzi, tu esi dzirdējis, ko Asīrijas ķēniņi darījuši visām zemēm, tās izdeldēdami; un tu domā izglābties?
12 Have the gods of the nations freed any of those whom my fathers have destroyed, such as Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the sons of Eden, who were at Telassar?
Vai pagānu dievi tos glābuši, ko mani tēvi izpostījuši, Gozanu un Haranu un Recevu un Edeņa bērnus, kas bija Telasarā?
13 Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, and of Hena, and of Avva?”
Kur ir Hamatas ķēniņš un Arpadas ķēniņš un Sefarvaimas pilsētas, Enas un Ivas ķēniņš?
14 And so, when Hezekiah had received the letter from the hand of the messengers, and had read it, he ascended to the house of the Lord, and he spread it out before the Lord.
Kad nu Hizkija bija dabūjis tās grāmatas no vēstnešu rokas un tās izlasījis, tad viņš gāja Tā Kunga namā, un Hizkija tās atpleta Tā Kunga priekšā.
15 And he prayed in his sight, saying: “O Lord, God of Israel, who sits upon the cherubim, you alone are God, over all the kings of the earth. You made heaven and earth.
Un Hizkija pielūdza Tā Kunga priekšā un sacīja: Kungs, Israēla Dievs, kas sēdi pār ķerubiem, Tu viens pats esi Dievs pār visām zemes valstīm, Tu esi radījis debesis un zemi.
16 Incline your ear, and listen. Open your eyes, O Lord, and see. And hear all the words of Sennacherib, who sent so that he might reproach the living God before us.
Atgriez, ak Kungs, Savas ausis un klausies, atveri, ak Kungs, Savas acis un redzi un dzirdi Sanheriba vārdus, ko viņš sūtījis, zaimot To dzīvo Dievu!
17 Truly, O Lord, the kings of the Assyrians have devastated all peoples and lands.
Patiesi, ak Kungs, Asīrijas ķēniņi ir postījuši pagānus un viņu zemi,
18 And they have cast their gods into the fire. For they were not gods, but instead were the works of men’s hands, out of wood and stone. And so they destroyed them.
Un viņu dievus metuši ugunī, jo tie nav dievi, bet cilvēku roku darbs, koks un akmens, tāpēc tie tos ir izpostījuši.
19 Now therefore, O Lord our God, bring us salvation from his hand, so that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you alone are the Lord God.”
Nu tad, Kungs, mūsu Dievs, izpestī mūs jel no viņa rokas, lai visas valstis virs zemes atzīst, ka Tu, ak Kungs, vien esi Dievs.
20 Then Isaiah, the son of Amoz, sent to Hezekiah, saying: “Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: I have heard what you beseeched from me, concerning Sennacherib, the king of the Assyrians.
Tad Jesaja, Amoca dēls, sūtīja pie Hizkijas un lika sacīt: tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs: par ko tu Mani pielūdzis pret Sanheribu, Asīrijas ķēniņu, to Es esmu klausījis.
21 This is the word that the Lord has spoken about him: The virgin daughter of Zion has spurned and ridiculed you. The daughter of Jerusalem has shaken her head behind your back.
Šis ir tas vārds, ko Tas Kungs pret viņu runājis: tevi nievā, tevi apsmej jumprava, Ciānas meita, aiz tevis krata galvu Jeruzālemes meita.
22 Whom have you reproached, and whom have you blasphemed? Against whom have you exalted your voice, and lifted up your eyes on high? Against the Holy One of Israel!
Ko tu esi apsmējis un zaimojis un pret ko tu esi pacēlis savu balsi un augsti uzcēlis savas acis? Pret to Svēto iekš Israēla.
23 By the hand of your servants, you have reproached the Lord, and you have said: ‘By the multitude of my chariots I have ascended to the heights of the mountains, to the summit of Lebanon. And I have cut down its sublime cedars, and its elect spruce trees. And I have entered even to its limits. And its forest of Carmel,
Caur saviem vēstnešiem tu To Kungu esi apmēdījis un sacījis: ar saviem ratu pulkiem es uzkāpu kalnu galos, Lībanus virsgalā, un izcērtu viņa augstos ciedru kokus un izlasītās priedes, un tieku līdz paša gala mājoklim, līdz viņa meža lepnumiem.
24 I have cut down. And I drank foreign waters, and I dried up all the enclosed waters with the steps of my feet.’
Es roku un dzeru svešus ūdeņus, un no manu kāju pēdām paliek sausas visas Ēģiptes upes.
25 But have you not heard what I have done from the beginning? From the days of antiquity, I have formed it, and now I have brought it to be. And fortified cities of fighting men will become piles of ruins.
Vai tu neesi dzirdējis, ka Es jau sen iepriekš to esmu sataisījis, jau vecos laikos to esmu apņēmies? Tagad Es tam esmu licis notikt, ka tu izposti stipras pilsētas un dari par akmeņu kopām.
26 And whoever may settle in these, they have trembled, with a weak hand, and they have been confounded. They have become like the hay of the field, and like weeds sprouting on the rooftops, which dry up before they reached maturity.
Tāpēc viņu iedzīvotājiem nogura rokas, un tie iztrūcinājās un tapa kaunā, tie bija kā zāle laukā un kā uzzēlis zaļums un kā zāle uz jumtiem un kā rūsaina labība, pirms nāk stiebros.
27 Your habitation, and your exit, and your entrance, and your way, I knew beforehand, along with your fury against me.
Un Es zinu tavu sēdēšanu un tavu iziešanu un tavu ieiešanu un tavu trakošanu pret Mani.
28 You have been maddened against me, and your arrogance has ascended to my ears. And so, I will place a ring in your nose, and a bit between your lips. And I will lead you back along the way by which you came.
Tavas trakošanas dēļ pret Mani un tavas pārgalvības pēc, kas nākusi Manās ausīs, Es Savu kāsi likšu tavās nāsīs un Savus laužņus tavā mutē, un tev likšu griezties atpakaļ pa to ceļu, kur tu esi nācis.
29 But as for you, Hezekiah, this shall be a sign: Eat this year whatever you will find, and in the second year, whatever may spring up of itself. But in the third year, sow and reap; plant vineyards, and eat from their fruit.
Un tas tev būs par zīmi: šai gadā ēdīs papuvē augušu, un otrā gadā ataugu, un trešajā gadā sējiet un pļaujiet un stādiet vīna dārzus un ēdiet viņu augļus.
30 And whatever will have been left behind, from the house of Judah, shall send a root downward, and shall bear fruit upward.
Un kas no Jūda nama ir izglābts un atlicis, sakņos atkal lejup un nesīs augļus augšup;
31 Indeed, a remnant shall go forth from Jerusalem, and what may be saved shall go forth from mount Zion. The zeal of the Lord of hosts shall accomplish this.
Jo no Jeruzālemes izies atlikuši, un atpestīti no Ciānas kalna. To darīs Tā Kunga Cebaot karstums.
32 For this reason, thus says the Lord about the king of the Assyrians: He shall not enter into this city, nor shoot an arrow into it, nor overtake it with the shield, nor encircle it with fortifications.
Tāpēc tā saka Tas Kungs par Asīrijas ķēniņu: viņš nenāks šai pilsētā un neiešaus tanī nevienu bultu un nepacels pret to priekšturamās bruņas un neuzmetīs pret to valni.
33 By the way that he came, so shall he return. And he shall not enter this city, says the Lord.
Pa to pašu ceļu, kur viņš nācis, viņam būs griezties atpakaļ, bet šai pilsētā viņš nenāks, saka Tas Kungs.
34 And I will protect this city, and I will save it for my own sake, and for the sake of my servant David.”
Jo Es šo pilsētu paglabāšu un izpestīšu Sevis labad un Sava kalpa Dāvida labad.
35 And so it happened that, in the same night, an Angel of the Lord went and struck down, in the camp of the Assyrians, one hundred and eighty-five thousand. And when he had risen up, at first light, he saw all the bodies of the dead. And withdrawing, he went away.
Un tai pašā naktī notikās, ka Tā Kunga eņģelis izgāja un nokāva Asiriešu lēģerī simts astoņdesmit un pieci tūkstošus. Un kad no rīta agri cēlās, redzi, tad tur viss bija miroņu pilns.
36 And Sennacherib, the king of the Assyrians, returned and dwelled in Nineveh.
Tā Sanheribs, Asīrijas ķēniņš, aizgāja un gāja projām un griezās atpakaļ un palika Ninivē.
37 And while he was worshipping in the temple of his god, Nisroch, his sons, Adram-melech and Sharezer, struck him with the sword. And they fled into the land of the Armenians. And Esarhaddon, his son, reigned in his place.
Un notikās, kad viņš pielūdza Nizroka, sava dieva, namā, tad Adrameleķs un Sarecers, viņa dēli, to nokāva ar zobenu un aizbēga uz Ararata zemi. Un viņa dēls Asaradons palika par ķēniņu viņa vietā.
