2 Kings 3
1 Truly, Joram, the son of Ahab, reigned over Israel, in Samaria, in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah. And he reigned for twelve years.
Un Jorams, Ahaba dēls, palika par ķēniņu pār Israēli Samarijā, Jehošafata, Jūda ķēniņa, astoņpadsmitā gadā un valdīja divpadsmit gadus.
2 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, but not as his father and mother did. For he took away the statues of Baal, which his father had made.
Un viņš darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika, bet ne tā, kā viņa tēvs un kā viņa māte, jo viņš lika noņemt to uzcelto Baāla stabu, ko viņa tēvs bija taisījis.
3 Yet truly, he did adhere to the sins of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin; neither did he withdraw from these.
Tikai viņš pieķērās Jerobeama, Nebata dēla, grēkiem, uz ko tas Israēli bija pavedis, - no tiem viņš neatstājās. -
4 Now Mesha, the king of Moab, raised many sheep. And he repaid to the king of Israel one hundred thousand lambs, and one hundred thousand rams, with their fleece.
Un Mešum, Moaba ķēniņam, bija daudz lopu, un viņš deva Israēla ķēniņam par mesliem simts tūkstoš jērus un simts tūkstoš aunus ar visu vilnu.
5 And when Ahab had died, he transgressed the pact that he had with the king of Israel.
Bet kad Ahabs bija nomiris, tad Moaba ķēniņš atkrita no Israēla ķēniņa.
6 Therefore, king Joram departed on that day from Samaria, and he took a count of all of Israel.
Tad ķēniņš Jorams tai laikā cēlās no Samarijas un sarīkoja visu Israēli,
7 And he sent to Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, saying: “The king of Moab has withdrawn from me. Come to battle with me against him.” And he responded: “I will go up. What is mine, is yours. My people are your people. And my horses are your horses.”
Un nogāja un sūtīja pie Jehošafata, Jūda ķēniņa, sacīdams: Moaba ķēniņš no manis atkritis, vai tu līdz ar mani gribi karā iet pret Moabu? Un tas sacīja: es iešu līdz, es būšu kā tu, mani ļaudis kā tavi ļaudis, un mani zirgi kā tavi zirgi.
8 And he said, “Along which way shall we ascend?” So he responded, “Along the desert of Idumea.”
Un viņš sacīja: pa kuru ceļu iesim? Un tas sacīja pa Edoma tuksneša ceļu.
9 Therefore, the king of Israel, and the king of Judah, and the king of Idumea, traveled, and they went by a circuitous path for seven days. But there was no water for the army or for the beasts of burden which were following them.
Tā tie gāja, Israēla ķēniņš un Jūda ķēniņš un Edoma ķēniņš. Un kad tie bija gājuši septiņu dienu gājumu, tad tiem nebija ūdens, ne karaspēkam, ne lopiem, kas tiem bija līdz.
10 And the king of Israel said: “Alas, alas, alas! The Lord has gathered we three kings, so that he might deliver us into the hands of Moab.”
Tad Israēla ķēniņš sacīja: Ak vai! Tas Kungs šos trīs ķēniņus aicinājis, ka Viņš tos dotu Moaba rokā!
11 And Jehoshaphat said, “Is there not a prophet of the Lord here, so that we may appeal to the Lord through him?” And one of the servants of the king of Israel responded, “Elisha, the son of Shaphat, is here, who poured water upon the hands of Elijah.”
Un Jehošafats sacīja: vai še nav kāds no Tā Kunga praviešiem, ka To Kungu caur viņu vaicātu? Tad viens no Israēla ķēniņa kalpiem tam atbildēja un sacīja: še ir Eliša, Šafata dēls, kas ūdeni lēja uz Elijas rokām.
12 And Jehoshaphat said, “The word of the Lord is with him.” And so, the king of Israel, with Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, and with the king of Idumea, descended to him.
Un Jehošafats sacīja: Tā Kunga vārds ir pie viņa. Tad pie tā nogāja Israēla ķēniņš un Jehošafats un Edoma ķēniņš.
13 Then Elisha said to the king of Israel: “What is there between you and me? Go to the prophets of your father and your mother.” And the king of Israel said to him, “Why has the Lord gathered these three kings, so that he might deliver them into the hands of Moab?”
Bet Eliša sacīja uz Israēla ķēniņu: kas man ar tevi? Ej pie sava tēva praviešiem un pie savas mātes praviešiem. Bet Israēla ķēniņš uz to sacīja: nē, jo Tas Kungs šos trīs ķēniņus ir aicinājis, ka viņš tos dotu Moaba rokā.
14 And Elisha said to him: “As the Lord of hosts lives, in whose sight I stand, if I was not humbled by the face of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, certainly I would neither have listened to you, nor have looked upon you.
Un Eliša sacīja: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs Cebaot dzīvs, priekš kā es stāvu, ja es to nedarītu Jehošafata, Jūda ķēniņa, labad, tad es tev ne virsū neskatītos nedz tevi ievērotu.
15 But now, bring a musician to me.” And while the musician was playing, the hand of the Lord fell upon him, and he said:
Nu tad, dabūjat man vienu koklētāju. Un tam koklētājam koklējot Tā Kunga roka nāca pār viņu,
16 “Thus says the Lord: Make, in the channel of this torrent, pit after pit.
Un viņš sacīja: tā saka Tas Kungs: rokat grāvi pie grāvja šinī ielejā.
17 For thus says the Lord: You shall not see wind or rain. And yet this channel shall be filled with water. And you shall drink, you and your families, and your beasts of burden.
Jo tā saka Tas Kungs: jūs neredzēsiet ne vēju ne lietu, tomēr šī ieleja būs pilna ūdens, jums dzert pašiem un jūsu sīkiem un lieliem lopiem.
18 And this is small in the sight of the Lord. So, in addition, he will also deliver Moab into your hands.
Un tas ir vēl maz priekš Tā Kunga, viņš arī Moabu dos jūsu rokā.
19 And you shall strike every fortified town and every elect city. And you shall cut down every fruitful tree. And you shall obstruct all the sources of water. And you shall cover every excellent field with stones.”
Un jums būs kaut visas stiprās pilsētas un visas izredzētās pilsētas, un nocirst visus labos kokus un aizbāzt visus ūdens avotus un samaitāt visus labos tīrumus ar akmeņiem.
20 Then it happened that, in the morning, when the sacrifices were usually to be offered, behold, water was arriving along the way of Idumea, and the land was filled with water.
Un notikās no rīta ap ēdamā upura laiku, redzi, tad ūdens nāca no Edoma puses, un zeme tapa ūdens pilna.
21 Then all the Moabites, hearing that the kings had ascended so that they might fight against them, gathered all who had been girded with a belt around them, and they stood at the borders.
Kad nu visi Moabieši dzirdēja, ka tie ķēniņi nāca, pret tiem karot, tad tie sasauca visus, kas spēja bruņas nest, un vēl pārāki(vecākie) un tie stājās uz robežām.
22 And rising up in early morning, and when the sun was now rising before the waters, the Moabites saw the waters opposite them, which were red like blood.
Un kad tie no rīta agri cēlās un saule bija uzlēkusi pār to ūdeni, tad Moabieši no tālienes to ūdeni redzēja sarkanu kā asinis.
23 And they said: “It is the blood of the sword! The kings have fought among themselves, and they have slain one another. Go now, Moab, to the spoils!”
Un tie sacīja: tās ir asinis; tiešām tie ķēniņi pacēluši zobenu, zobenus viens pret otru un cits citu nokāvuši. Un nu, Moab, celies uz laupīšanu.
24 And they went into the camp of Israel. But Israel, rising up, struck Moab, and they fled before them. And since they had prevailed, they went and struck down Moab.
Bet kad tie nāca pie Israēla lēģera, tad Israēlieši cēlās un kāva Moabiešus un šie no viņiem bēga. Un tie tur ielauzās un apkāva Moabiešus,
25 And they destroyed the cities. And they filled up every excellent field, each one casting stones. And they obstructed all the sources of water. And they cut down all the fruitful trees, to such an extent that only brick walls remained. And the city was encircled by the slingers of stones. And a great part of it was struck down.
Un nopostīja tās pilsētas, un ikkatrs meta savu akmeni uz visiem labiem tīrumiem un tos sameta pilnus, un aizbāza visus avotus un nocirta visus labos kokus, līdz kamēr Ķirarezetē akmeņus vien atlicināja. Un lingotāji ap to apmetās un tai svieda virsū.
26 And when the king of Moab had seen this, specifically, that the enemies had prevailed, he took with him seven hundred men who draw the sword, so that he might break through to the king of Idumea. But they were unable.
Kad nu Moaba ķēniņš redzēja, ka kaušanās tam metās par stipru, tad viņš pie sevis ņēma septiņsimt vīrus, kas zobenu izvilka, lauzties cauri pret Edoma ķēniņu, bet tie nespēja.
27 And taking his firstborn son, who would have reigned in his place, he offered him as a holocaust upon the wall. And there was great indignation in Israel. And they promptly withdrew from him, and they turned back to their own land.
Tad viņš ņēma savu pirmdzimušo dēlu, kam viņa vietā bija palikt par ķēniņu, un to upurēja par dedzināmo upuri uz mūra. Un Israēli pārņēma lielas dusmas un tie no tā atstājās un griezās atpakaļ uz savu zemi.
