< Joshua 7 >
1 But the sons of Israel transgressed the commandment, and they usurped what was anathema. For Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, from the tribe of Judah, took something from what was anathema. And the Lord became angry against the sons of Israel.
Bet Israēla bērni noziedzās pie tā izdeldējamā, jo Akans, Karmus dēls, tas bija Zabdus, tas Zerus dēls no Jūda cilts, ņēma no tā izdeldējamā. Tad Tā Kunga bardzība iedegās pret Israēla bērniem.
2 And when Joshua sent men from Jericho against Ai, which is beside Bethaven, toward the eastern region of the town of Bethel, he said to them, “Go up and explore the land.” And they fulfilled his instruction, and they explored Ai.
Kad nu Jozuas izsūtīja vīrus no Jērikus uz Aju pie Bet-Avenas, no Bēteles pret rītiem, un uz tiem runāja sacīdams: noejat un izlūkojiet to zemi,
3 And returning, they said to him: “Let not the entire people go up. Instead, let two or three thousand men go out and destroy the city. Why should all the people be troubled without cause against enemies that are so very few?”
Tad tie vīri nogāja un izlūkoja Aju, un griezās atpakaļ pie Jozuas un uz to sacīja: lai visi ļaudis nenoiet, bet lai kādi divtūkstoš vai trīstūkstoš vīri noiet un Aju kauj, neapgrūtini visus ļaudis, jo viņu tur ir maz.
4 Therefore, they went up with three thousand fighters. And they promptly turned their backs,
Tad no tiem ļaudīm cēlās uz turieni trīstūkstoš vīri, bet tiem bija jābēg priekš Ajas vīriem.
5 and were struck down by the men of the city of Ai. And thirty-six men of them fell. And the adversaries pursued them from the gate, even as far as Shebarim. And they felled them as they were fleeing downward. And the heart of the people was struck with fear, and it melted like water.
Un Ajas vīri apkāva no tiem trīsdesmit un sešus vīrus un dzinās tiem pakaļ no vārtiem līdz Zabarim, un tos sakāva pakalnē. Tad to ļaužu sirds izkusa un palika kā ūdens.
6 And truly, Joshua tore his garments, and he fell prone on the ground before the ark of the Lord, even until evening, both he and all the elders of Israel. And they cast dust upon their heads.
Un Jozuas saplēsa savas drēbes un metās zemē uz savu vaigu priekš Tā Kunga šķirsta līdz pat vakaram, viņš un Israēla vecaji, un tie kaisīja pīšļus uz savām galvām.
7 And Joshua said: “Alas, O Lord God! Why would you want to lead this people over the river Jordan, so that you might deliver us into the hand of the Amorite and destroy us? I wish that we had remained beyond the Jordan, as when we began.
Un Jozuas sacīja: ak Kungs, Dievs! Kāpēc tu šiem ļaudīm esi licis iet caur Jardāni, mūs dodams Amoriešu rokās, ka tie mūs izdeldē? Ak, kaut mēs mierā būtu palikuši viņpus Jardānes.
8 My Lord God, what shall I say, seeing Israel turning their backs to their enemies?
Ak Kungs, ko lai saku, kad nu Israēls muguru griež saviem ienaidniekiem?
9 The Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of it, and coming together as one, they will surround us, and they will wipe our name from the earth. And what will you do concerning your great name?”
Kad Kanaānieši un visi zemes iedzīvotāji to dzirdēs, tad tie mūs apstās visapkārt un izdeldēs mūsu vārdu no zemes. Ko tad Tu darīsi Sava lielā Vārda dēļ?
10 And the Lord said to Joshua: “Rise up. Why are you lying flat on the ground?
Tad Tas Kungs sacīja uz Jozua: celies, kāpēc tu tā guli uz sava vaiga?
11 Israel has sinned and transgressed my covenant. And they have taken from what is anathema. And they have stolen and lied, and they have hidden it among their goods.
Israēls ir apgrēkojies un arī pārkāpis Manu derību, ko Es tiem esmu pavēlējis; tie ir arī ņēmuši no tā izdeldējamā un ir zaguši un slēpuši un to ir likuši pie savas mantas.
12 Israel is not able to stand before his enemies, and he will flee from them. For he has been defiled by what is anathema. I will no longer be with you, until you destroy him who is guilty of this wickedness.
Tāpēc Israēla bērni nevar pastāvēt priekš saviem ienaidniekiem, tiem bēdzin jābēg no saviem ienaidniekiem, jo tie ir izdeldējami. Es nebūšu vairs ar jums, ja jūs to, kas izdeldējams, no sava vidus neizdeldēsiet.
13 Rise up. Sanctify the people. And you shall say to them: ‘Be sanctified tomorrow. For thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: That which is anathema is in your midst, O Israel! You are not able to stand before your enemies, until he who has been contaminated by this wickedness is taken away from you.’
Celies, svētī tos ļaudis un saki: svētījaties uz rītdienu, jo tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs: izdeldējama lieta ir tavā vidū, Israēl; tu nevari pastāvēt priekš saviem ienaidniekiem, tiekams tu nebūsi izdeldējis no sava vidus to izdeldējamo.
14 And you shall draw near in the morning, each one by your tribes. And whichever tribe will be found by lot shall come forward by its families, and the families by houses, and the house by the men.
Rītā agri nākat priekšā pēc savām ciltīm, un tā cilts, ko Tas Kungs uzrādīs, lai nāk priekšā pēc saviem radiem, un tas rads, ko Tas Kungs uzrādīs, lai nāk priekšā pēc savām saimēm, un tā saime, ko Tas Kungs uzrādīs, lai nāk priekšā pēc saviem vīriem.
15 And whoever he may be that will be found guilty of this deed, he shall be burnt with fire with all his substance. For he transgressed the covenant of the Lord, and he committed a wicked act in Israel.”
Un kas taps atrasts ar to izdeldējamo, to būs sadedzināt ar uguni, līdz ar visu, kas tam pieder, tāpēc ka viņš pārkāpis Tā Kunga derību, un tāpēc ka viņš kauna lietu darījis iekš Israēla.
16 And so Joshua, rising in the morning, brought forth Israel by their tribes, and the tribe of Judah was found.
Tad Jozuas cēlās no rīta agri un veda priekšā Israēli pēc viņu ciltīm, - tad Jūda cilts tapa uzrādīta.
17 And when its families had been presented, the family of Zerah was found. Likewise, bringing that one forward by the houses, he discovered Zabdi.
Un kad viņš Jūda cilti veda priekšā, tad tapa uzrādīts Zeraiešu rads, un kad Zeraiešu radu veda priekšā pēc tiem saimniekiem, tad Zabdus tapa uzrādīts.
18 And dividing his house by each man, he found Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, from the tribe of Judah.
Kad šo saimi veda priekšā pēc tiem vīriem, tad Akans tapa uzrādīts, Karmus dēls, tas bija Zabdus, tas Zerus dēls no Jūda cilts.
19 And Joshua said to Achan: “My son, give glory to the Lord, the God of Israel, and confess, and reveal to me what you have done. You may not conceal it.”
Tad Jozuas sacīja uz Akanu: mans dēls, dod jel Tam Kungam, Israēla Dievam, godu un dod Viņam slavu un stāsti man jel, ko tu esi darījis, un neslēpi to man.
20 And Achan responded to Joshua, and he said to him: “Truly, I have sinned against the Lord, the God of Israel, and I have done one thing and another.
Tad Akans atbildēja Jozuam un sacīja: tiešām, es esmu apgrēkojies pret To Kungu, Israēla Dievu, un esmu tā un tā darījis.
21 For I saw among the spoils a very fine scarlet cloak, and two hundred shekels of silver, and a gold bar of fifty shekels. And coveting these, I took and hid them in the ground near the middle of my tent, and I covered the silver with the soil that I had dug.”
Jo es ieraudzīju pie laupījuma vienu skaistu Babiloniešu mēteli un divsimt sudraba sēķeļus un vienu zelta sprādzi, tā svēra piecdesmit sēķeļus, un es tās lietas iekāroju un tās ņēmu, un redzi, tās manā teltī ir paslēptas zemē un tas sudrabs tur apakšā.
22 Therefore, Joshua sent ministers, who, running to his tent, discovered everything hidden in the same place, together with the silver.
Tad Jozuas sūtīja vīrus un tie skrēja uz to telti, un redzi, tas bija apslēpts viņa teltī, un tas sudrabs tur apakšā.
23 And taking these from the tent, they brought them to Joshua, and to all the sons of Israel, and they cast them down before the Lord.
Un tie to izņēma no tās telts un atnesa pie Jozuas un pie visiem Israēla bērniem un to izbēra Tā Kunga priekšā.
24 And so Joshua took Achan, the son of Zerah, and the silver, and the cloak, and the gold bar, also his sons and daughters, the oxen and donkeys and sheep, and even the tent and all his goods, (and all of Israel went with him, ) and he brought these to the valley of Achor.
Tad Jozuas un viss Israēls līdz ar viņu ņēma Akanu, Zerus dēlu, un to sudrabu un to mēteli un to zelta sprādzi un viņa dēlus un viņa meitas un viņa vēršus un viņa ēzeļus un viņa sīkos lopus un viņa telti un visu, kas tam bija, un tos veda uz Ahora ieleju.
25 There, Joshua said: “Because you have troubled us, the Lord troubles you, on this day.” And all of Israel stoned him. And all the things that were his were consumed by fire.
Un Jozuas sacīja: kā tu mūs esi apbēdinājis, tā tev Tas Kungs šodien apbēdinās; un viss Israēls to akmeņiem nomētāja un tos sadedzināja ar uguni un uzkrāva pār tiem akmeņus.
26 And they gathered upon him a great pile of stones, which remains even to the present day. And the fury of the Lord was averted from them. And the name of that place was called the Valley of Achor, even to this day.
Un tie uzcēla pār tiem lielu akmeņu kopu, kas stāv līdz šai dienai. Tā Tas Kungs atgriezās no Savas bardzības karstuma; tādēļ tās vietas vārds top nosaukts Ahora ieleja līdz šai pašai dienai.
