< 2 Kings 1 >
1 Then, after the death of Ahab, Moab transgressed against Israel.
Un Moabs atkāpās no Israēla, kad Ahabs bija nomiris.
2 And Ahaziah fell down through the lattices of his upper room, which he had in Samaria, and he was injured. And he sent messengers, saying to them, “Go, consult Beelzebub, the god of Ekron, as to whether I may be able to survive this infirmity of mine.”
Un Ahazija nokrita caur savas augšistabas treliņiem Samarijā, un sasitās un sūtīja vēstnešus un tiem sacīja: ejat un vaicājiet BaālZebubu, Ekronas dievu, vai es palikšu vesels?
3 And an Angel of the Lord spoke to Elijah, the Tishbite, saying: “Rise up, and ascend to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria. And you shall say to them: ‘Is there not a God in Israel, so that you would go to consult Beelzebub, the god of Ekron?
Bet Tā Kunga eņģelis runāja uz Eliju no Tizbes: celies, ej pretī Samarijas ķēniņa vēstnešiem un runā uz tiem: vai tad Dieva nav iekš Israēla, ka jūs ejat, vaicāt BaālZebubu, Ekronas dievu?
4 For this reason, thus says the Lord: From the bed to which you have ascended, you shall not descend. Instead, dying you shall die.’” And Elijah went away.
Tāpēc Tas Kungs tā saka: tu necelsies no tās gultas, kur tu guli, bet tev jāmirst. Un Elija aizgāja.
5 And the messengers returned to Ahaziah. And he said to them, “Why have you returned?”
Tā tie vēstneši nāca atpakaļ pie viņa, un viņš uz tiem sacīja: kāpēc jūs nākat atpakaļ?
6 But they responded to him: “A man met us, and he said to us: ‘Go, and return to the king who sent you. And you shall say to him: Thus says the Lord: Is it because there was no God in Israel that you are sending to consult Beelzebub, the god of Ekron? Therefore, from the bed to which you have ascended, you shall not descend. Instead, dying you shall die.’”
Un tie uz viņu sacīja: viens vīrs mums nāca pretī un uz mums sacīja: ejat, griežaties atpakaļ pie ķēniņa, kas jūs sūtījis, un sakāt tam: tā saka Tas Kungs: vai tad nav Dieva iekš Israēla, ka tu sūti, vaicāt BaālZebubu, Ekronas dievu? Tāpēc tu necelsies no tās gultas, kur tu guli, bet tev jāmirst.
7 And he said to them: “What was the appearance and dress of that man, who met you and who spoke these words?”
Un viņš uz tiem sacīja: kādu izskatu tas vīrs bija, kas jums pretī nāca un šos vārdus uz jums runāja?
8 So they said, “A hairy man, with a belt of leather wrapping his waist.” And he said, “It is Elijah, the Tishbite.”
Un tie uz viņu sacīja: tas bija vīrs spalvas drēbēs un ar ādas jostu apjozies ap saviem gurniem. Tad viņš sacīja: tas ir Elija no Tizbes.
9 And he sent to him a leader of fifty, with the fifty who were under him. And he ascended to him, sitting at the top of a hill, and he said, “Man of God, the king commanded that you should descend.”
Un viņš pie tā sūtīja virsnieku pār piecdesmit un tos piecdesmit, kas tam bija. Un kad tas pie viņa nonāca, redzi, tad viņš sēdēja kalna galā, un tas uz viņu sacīja: tu Dieva vīrs, ķēniņš tev liek sacīt: nāc lejā.
10 And responding, Elijah said to the leader of fifty, “If I am a man of God, let fire from heaven descend and devour you and your fifty.” And then fire from heaven descended and devoured him and the fifty who were with him.
Bet Elija atbildēja un sacīja uz to virsnieku pār tiem piecdesmit: ja es esmu Dieva vīrs, tad lai uguns krīt no debesīm un aprij tevi ar taviem piecdesmit. Tad uguns krita no debesīm un aprija to un viņa piecdesmit.
11 And again, he sent to him another leader of fifty, and the fifty with him. And he said to him, “Man of God, thus says the king: Hurry, descend.”
Bet viņš pie tā sūtīja vēl otru virsnieku pār piecdesmit un tos piecdesmit, kas tam bija, un tas bildināja un uz to sacīja: tu Dieva vīrs, tā ķēniņš saka: nāc tūdaļ lejā.
12 Responding, Elijah said, “If I am a man of God, let fire from heaven descend and devour you and your fifty.” And fire from heaven descended and devoured him and his fifty.
Bet Elija atbildēja un uz tiem sacīja: ja es esmu Dieva vīrs, tad lai uguns krīt no debesīm, un aprij tevi ar taviem piecdesmit. Tad Dieva uguns nokrita no debesīm un aprija to un viņa piecdesmit.
13 Again, he sent a third leader of fifty men and the fifty who were with him. And when he had arrived, he bent his knees before Elijah, and he pleaded with him, and said: “Man of God, do not choose to despise my life and the lives of your servants who are with me.
Bet viņš sūtīja atkal trešo reiz virsnieku pār piecdesmit un tos piecdesmit, kas tam bija. Un tas trešais virsnieks pār piecdesmit nāca augšām un piegāja un metās ceļos priekš Elijas, to lūdza un uz to sacīja: tu Dieva vīrs, lai jel mana dvēsele un šo tavu piecdesmit kalpu dvēseles atrod žēlastību tavās acīs.
14 Behold, fire from heaven descended and devoured the two previous leaders of fifty and the fifties who were with them. But now I beg you to take pity on my life.”
Redzi, uguns ir kritis no debesīm un aprijis tos divus pirmos virsniekus pār piecdesmit līdz ar viņu piecdesmitiem, bet nu lai jel mana dvēsele ir dārga tavās acīs.
15 Then the Angel of the Lord spoke to Elijah, saying, “Descend with him; fear not.” And so, he arose and descended with him to the king.
Un Tā Kunga eņģelis sacīja uz Eliju: noej ar viņu un nebīsties no viņa. Tad viņš cēlās un ar to nogāja pie ķēniņa,
16 And he said to him: “Thus says the Lord: Because you sent messengers to consult Beelzebub, the god of Ekron, as if there were no God in Israel, from whom you would be able to seek a word, therefore, from the bed to which you have ascended, you shall not descend. Instead, dying you shall die.”
Un sacīja uz to: tā saka Tas Kungs: tāpēc ka tu vēstnešus esi sūtījis, vaicāt BaālZebubu, Ekronas dievu, kā kad nebūtu Dieva iekš Israēla, kura vārdu varētu vaicāt tāpēc tu necelsies no tās gultas, kur tu guli, bet tev jāmirst.
17 And so he died, in accord with the word of the Lord, which Elijah spoke. And Jehoram, his brother, reigned in his place, in the second year of Jehoram, the son of Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah. For he had no son.
Tā viņš nomira pēc Tā Kunga vārda, ko Elija bija runājis, un Jorams palika par ķēniņu viņa vietā, Jehorama, Jehošafata dēla, Juda ķēniņa, otrā gadā, jo viņam nebija dēla.
18 But the rest of the words of Ahaziah that he worked, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
Un kas vēl stāstāms par Ahaziju, ko viņš darījis, tas viss rakstīts Israēla ķēniņu laiku grāmatā.
