Judges 20
1 And so all the sons of Israel went out like one man, from Dan to Beersheba, with the land of Gilead, and they gathered together, before the Lord, at Mizpah.
Tad visi Israēla bērni izgāja un tā draudze sapulcējās kā viens vienīgs vīrs, no Dana līdz Bēršebai, arī Gileādas zeme, pie Tā Kunga Micpā.
2 And all the chiefs of the people, and every tribe of Israel, convened as an assembly of the people of God, four hundred thousand foot soldiers for battle.
Un visu ļaužu virsnieki, visas Israēla ciltis, rādījās(sanāca kopā) Dieva ļaužu draudzē, četrsimt tūkstoš kājnieki, zobenu vilcēji.
3 (But it was not hidden from the sons of Benjamin that the sons of Israel had ascended to Mizpah.) And the Levite, the husband of the woman who was killed, being questioned as to how so great a crime had been perpetrated,
Un Benjamina bērni dzirdēja, ka Israēla bērni bija gājuši uz Micpu. Un Israēla bērni sacīja: sakāt, kā šis grēks noticis?
4 responded: “I went to Gibeah of Benjamin, with my wife, and I diverted to that place.
Tad tas vīrs, tas Levits, tās nokautās sievas vīrs, atbildēja un sacīja: es ar savu sievu nācu uz Ģibeju, kas Benjaminam pieder, par nakti tur palikt.
5 And behold, the men of that city, at night, surrounded the house in which I was staying, intending to kill me. And they abused my wife with such an incredible fury of lust that in the end she died.
Tad Ģibejas namnieki pret mani cēlās un naktī mani apstāja namā; tie nodomāja mani nokaut, un manu lieko sievu tie pārvarējuši, tā ka tā mirusi.
6 And taking her up, I cut her into pieces, and I sent the parts into all the borders of your possession. For never before was such a nefarious crime, and so great a sin, committed in Israel.
Tad es ņēmu savu lieko sievu un to dalīju un to sūtīju visās Israēla zemes tiesās, jo tie nešķīstību un negantību ir darījuši iekš Israēla.
7 You are all present here, O sons of Israel. Discern what you ought to do.”
Redzi, jūs visi esat Israēla bērni, sarunājaties un dodiet padomu.
8 And all the people, standing, responded as if with the word of one man: “We shall not return to our own tents, nor shall anyone enter into his own house.
Tad visi ļaudis cēlās kā viens vienīgs vīrs un sacīja: mēs neiesim neviens uz savu dzīvokli un negriezīsimies neviens uz savu namu.
9 But this we shall do in common against Gibeah:
Bet šī nu ir tā lieta, ko mēs darīsim pie Ģibejas: pret viņu kā mesli krīt!
10 We shall select ten men out of one hundred from all the tribes of Israel, and one hundred out of one thousand, and one thousand out of ten thousand, so that they may transport supplies for the army, and so that we will be able to fight against Gibeah of Benjamin, and to repay it for its crime as it deserves.”
Mēs ņemsim desmit vīrus no simta no visām Israēla ciltīm un simtu no tūkstošiem un tūkstoti no desmit tūkstošiem, ceļamaizi dabūt priekš tiem ļaudīm; tad iesim uz Benjamina Ģibeju, darīt (viņai) pēc visas negantības, ko tā iekš Israēla padarījusi.
11 And all of Israel convened against the city, like one man, with one mind and one counsel.
Tad visi Israēla vīri sapulcējās pret to pilsētu un sabiedrojās kā viens vienīgs vīrs.
12 And they sent messengers to the entire tribe of Benjamin, who said: “Why has so great a wickedness been found among you?
Un Israēla ciltis sūtīja vīrus pie visiem Benjamina radiem sacīdami: kas tas par grēku, kas jūsu starpā noticis?
13 Deliver the men of Gibeah, who have perpetrated this deplorable act, so that they may die, and so that the evil may be taken away from Israel.” And they were not willing to listen to the command of their brothers, the sons of Israel.
Tad nu izdodiet tos vīrus, tos bezdievīgos, kas Ģibejā, ka mēs tos nokaujam un to ļaunumu no Israēla nogriežam. Bet Benjamina (bērni) negribēja klausīt savu brāļu, Israēla bērnu, balsi.
14 Instead, out of all the cities that were their lot, they convened at Gibeah, so that they might bring them assistance, and so that they might contend against the entire people of Israel.
Un Benjamina bērni sapulcējās no tām pilsētām uz Ģibeju, karā iziet pret Israēla bērniem.
15 And there were found from Benjamin twenty-five thousand who drew the sword, aside from the inhabitants of Gibeah,
Un Benjamina bērni tapa skaitīti tai dienā no tām pilsētām divdesmit seši tūkstoš vīri, zobenu vilcēji, bez tiem, kas Ģibejā dzīvoja, to bija pēc skaita septiņsimt izlasīti vīri.
16 who were seven hundred very strong men, fighting with the left hand as well as with the right hand, and casting stones from a sling so accurately that they were able to strike even a hair, and the path of the stone would by no means miss to either side.
Starp visiem šiem ļaudīm bija septiņsimt izlasīti vīri, tie bija kreiļi; šie visi meta akmeni ar lingu uz mata, ka tas garām neaizgāja.
17 Then too, among the men of Israel apart from the sons of Benjamin, there were found four hundred thousand who drew the sword and who were prepared for battle.
Un Israēla vīri tapa skaitīti bez Benjamina četrsimt tūkstoš vīri, zobenu vilcēji; visi šie bija kara vīri.
18 And they rose up and went to the house of God, that is, to Shiloh. And they consulted God, and they said, “Who shall be, in our army, the first to contend against the sons of Benjamin?” And the Lord responded to them, “Let Judah be your leader.”
Un Israēla bērni cēlās un nogāja uz Bēteli, un vaicāja Dievu un sacīja: kuram no mums būs priekšā iet, karot pret Benjamina bērniem? Un Tas Kungs sacīja: Jūda lai iet priekšā.
19 And immediately the sons of Israel, rising up in the morning, made camp near Gibeah.
Tad Israēla bērni cēlās no rīta un apmeta lēģeri pret Ģibeju.
20 And setting out from there to fight against Benjamin, they began to assault the city.
Un Israēla vīri izgāja karā pret Benjaminu, un taisījās pret Ģibeju karot.
21 And the sons of Benjamin, departing from Gibeah, slew twenty-two thousand men from the sons of Israel, on that day.
Tad Benjamina bērni izgāja no Ģibejas, un viņi tai dienā no Israēla apkāva divdesmit un divus tūkstošus.
22 Again the sons of Israel, trusting in both strength and number, set their troops in order, in the same place where they had contended before.
Bet tie ļaudis, Israēla vīri, stiprinājās un taisījās atkal karot tai vietā, kur tie pirmā dienā bija taisījušies.
23 But first they also went up and wept before the Lord, even until night. And they consulted him and said, “Should I continue to go forth, so as to contend against the sons of Benjamin, my brothers, or not?” And he responded to them, “Ascend against them, and undertake the struggle.”
Un Israēla bērni nogāja un raudāja priekš Tā Kunga līdz vakaram un vaicāja To Kungu un sacīja: vai man atkal būs iet karā pret Benjamina, sava brāļa, bērniem? Tad Tas Kungs sacīja: ejat pret tiem.
24 And when the sons of Israel had continued to do battle against the sons of Benjamin on the next day,
Tā Israēla bērni gāja pret Benjamina bērniem otrā dienā.
25 the sons of Benjamin burst forth from the gates of Gibeah. And meeting them, they made such a frenzied slaughter against them that they struck down eighteen thousand men who drew the sword.
Bet Benjamins tiem gāja pretī no Ģibejas otrā dienā un apkāva no Israēla bērniem vēl astoņpadsmit tūkstošus, kas visi bija zobenu vilcēji.
26 As a result, all the sons of Israel went to the house of God, and sitting down, they wept before the Lord. And they fasted that day until evening, and they offered to him holocausts and victims of peace offerings.
Tad visi Israēla bērni un visi ļaudis nogāja un nāca uz Bēteli un raudāja, un palika tur priekš Tā Kunga un gavēja tai dienā līdz vakaram, un upurēja dedzināmos upurus un pateicības upurus Tā Kunga priekšā.
27 And they inquired about their state. At that time, the ark of the covenant of the Lord was in that place.
Un Israēla bērni vaicāja To Kungu, (jo tur tanīs dienās bija Dieva derības šķirsts,
28 And Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, was the first ruler of the house. And so, they consulted the Lord, and they said, “Should we continue to go forth in battle against the sons of Benjamin, our brothers, or should we cease?” And the Lord said to them: “Ascend. For tomorrow, I will deliver them into your hands.”
Un Pinehas, Ārona dēla, Eleazara, dēls stāvēja tanīs dienās priekš viņa) un sacīja: vai man vēl būs iet karā pret Benjamina, sava brāļa, bērniem, jeb vai man būs atstāties? Un Tas Kungs sacīja: ceļaties, jo rīt Es tos došu tavā rokā.
29 And the sons of Israel stationed ambushes around the city of Gibeah.
Tad Israēls lika kādiem apslēpties visapkārt pret Ģibeju.
30 And they brought out their army against Benjamin a third time, just as they had done on the first and second times.
Un Israēla bērni nogāja trešā dienā pret Benjamina bērniem un taisījās pret Ģibeju, kā citām reizēm.
31 But the sons of Benjamin again burst forth boldly from the city. And since their enemies were fleeing, they pursued them a long way, so that they might wound or kill some of them, just as they had done on the first and second days. And they turned their backs along two paths, one bringing them toward Bethel, and the other toward Gibeah. And they struck down about thirty men.
Tad Benjamina bērni tiem ļaudīm izgāja pretī un nogāja no tās pilsētas nost un sāka kaut un durt tos ļaudis tā kā jau divreiz' uz tiem ceļiem, kur viens tek uz Bēteli un otrs uz Ģibeju laukā, kādus trīsdesmit vīrus no Israēla.
32 For they thought that they were falling back as they had done before. But instead, skillfully feigning flight, they undertook a plan to draw them away from the city, and by seeming to flee, to lead them along the above stated paths.
Tad Benjamina bērni sacīja: tie mūsu priekšā ir sakauti tā kā papriekš, bet Israēla bērni sacīja: bēgsim un nošķirsim tos no pilsētas uz tiem ceļiem.
33 And so all the sons of Israel, rising up from their positions, set their troops in order, in the place which is called Baaltamar. Likewise, the ambushes that encircled the city began, little by little, to reveal themselves,
Tad visi Israēla vīri cēlās no savas vietas un nostājās BaālTamārā, tā līdz arī tie Israēlieši, kas bija paslēpušies, cēlās no savas vietas, no Ģibejas klajuma.
34 and to advance upon the western part of the city. Moreover, another ten thousand men from all of Israel were provoking a conflict with the inhabitants of the city. And the war grew heavy against the sons of Benjamin. And they did not realize that, on all sides of them, death was imminent.
Un desmit tūkstoš vīri, izlasīti no visa Israēla, nāca no Ģibejas puses, un kaušanās bija briesmīga. Bet tie nezināja, ka nelaime tiem jau bija tuvu.
35 And the Lord struck them down in the sight of the sons of Israel, and they put to death, on that day, twenty-five thousand of them, along with one hundred men, all warriors and those who drew the sword.
Tā Tas Kungs Benjaminu kāva Israēla priekšā, jo Israēla bērni tai dienā no Benjamina apkāva divdesmit piecus tūkstošus un simts vīrus, kas visi bija zobenu vilcēji.
36 But the sons of Benjamin, when they had seen themselves to be the weaker, began to flee. And the sons of Israel discerning this, gave them room to flee, so that they might arrive at the ambushes that were prepared, which they had positioned near the city.
Proti Benjamina bērni redzēja, ka viņi tapa kauti; un Israēla bērni Benjaminiešiem atstāja to vietu, jo viņi paļāvās uz tiem, kam bija likuši paslēpties pret Ģibeju.
37 And after they had risen up suddenly from hiding, and those of Benjamin had turned their backs to those who cut them down, they entered the city, and they struck it with the edge of the sword.
Un tie, kas bija paslēpušies, steidzās un izskrēja pret Ģibeju; tie, kas bija paslēpušies nāca un apkāva visu pilsētu ar zobena asmeni.
38 Now the sons of Israel had given a sign to those whom they had stationed in ambushes, so that, after they had seized the city, they would light a fire, and by the smoke ascending on high, they would show that the city was captured.
Un Israēla vīriem bija noruna ar tiem, kas bija paslēpušies, ka tiem bija uzkurt lielus dūmus un tos laist gaisā no pilsētas.
39 And then, the sons of Israel discerned this sign during the battle (for the sons of Benjamin had thought that they fled, and they pursued them forcefully, cutting down thirty men from their army).
Un Israēla vīri kaujā griezās atpakaļ, un Benjamins bija iesācis nokaut no Israēliešiem kādus trīsdesmit vīrus, tā ka viņi sacīja: tie ir pavisam kauti mūsu priekšā tā kā pirmā kaušanā.
40 And they saw something like a pillar of smoke ascending from the city. Likewise, Benjamin, looking back, discerned that the city was captured, for the flames were being carried on high.
Tad dūmi no pilsētas sāka celties, kā dūmu stabs, un kad Benjamins skatījās atpakaļ, redzi, tad visa pilsēta liesmās cēlās pret debesi.
41 And those who before had pretended to flee, turning their faces, withstood them more strongly. And when the sons of Benjamin had seen this, they turned their backs in flight,
Un Israēla vīri griezās atpakaļ, bet Benjamina vīri iztrūcinājās, jo tie redzēja, ka nelaime tiem bija uzkritusi.
42 and they began to go toward the way of the desert, with the adversary pursuing them to that place also. Moreover, those who had set fire to the city also met them.
Un tie atgriezās Israēla vīru priekšā uz tuksneša ceļu, bet tā kaušanās tiem bija uz pēdām pakaļ, un tie no tām pilsētām tos apkāva savā vidū.
43 And so it happened that they were cut down on both sides by the enemies, nor was there any respite for the dying. They were killed and struck down on the eastern side of the city of Gibeah.
Un tie apstāja Benjaminu, dzinās tam pakaļ līdz Menukai, un tos samina līdz Ģibejai pret saules uzlēkšanu.
44 Now those who were put to death in the same place were eighteen thousand men, all very robust fighters.
Un no Benjamina krita astoņpadsmit tūkstoš vīri, šie visi bija stipri vīri.
45 And when those who remained of Benjamin had seen this, they fled into the wilderness. And they were traveling toward the rock which is called Rimmon. In that flight also, among those who were scattering in different directions, they slew five thousand men. And though they scattered all the more, they continued to pursue them, and then they put to death another two thousand.
Un viņi griezās un bēga uz tuksnesi, uz Rimona klinti; un tie viņiem pa tiem ceļiem pakaļ dzīdamies apkāva vēl piectūkstoš vīrus un tiem dzinās pakaļ līdz Ģidomam un no tiem nokāva vēl divtūkstoš vīrus.
46 And so it happened that all of those who were slain from Benjamin, in various places, were twenty-five thousand fighters, very willing to go to war.
Un visi, kas no Benjamina tai dienā krita, bija divdesmit un piectūkstoš vīri, kas bija zobenu vilcēji un visi stipri vīri.
47 And so there remained from the entire number of Benjamin six hundred men who were able to escape and to flee into the wilderness. And they settled at the rock of Rimmon, for four months.
Bet sešsimt vīri griezās un bēga tuksnesī uz Rimona klinti, un palika pie Rimona klints četrus mēnešus.
48 But the sons of Israel, returning, had struck with the sword all that remained in the city, from men even to cattle. And all the cities and villages of Benjamin were consumed with devouring flames.
Un Israēla bērni griezās atpakaļ pie Benjamina bērniem, un kāva tos ar zobena asmeni pilsētā, gan vīrus gan lopus un visu, kas tapa atrasts; tie arī visas pilsētas, ko atrada, sadedzināja ar uguni.
