< 1 Samuel 2 >
1 My heart hath rejoiced in the Lord, and my horn is exalted in my God: my mouth is enlarged over my enemies: because I have joyed in thy salvation.
Tad Anna pielūdza un sacīja: “Mana sirds lec no prieka iekš Tā Kunga, mans rags ir paaugstināts iekš Tā Kunga; mana mute ir atvērta pret maniem ienaidniekiem, jo es priecājos par Tavu pestīšanu.
2 There is none holy as the Lord is: for there is no other beside thee, and there is none strong like our God.
Neviens nav svēts, kā Tas Kungs, neviens, kā Tu vien, un nekāds patvērums nav, kā mūsu Dievs.
3 Do not multiply to speak lofty things, boasting: let old matters depart from your mouth: for the Lord is a God of all knowledge, and to him are thoughts prepared.
Nedaudzinājiet runu augsti jo augsti, blēņas lai paliek nost no jūsu mutes; jo Tas Kungs ir Dievs, tas visu zinātājs, Viņš sver tos darbus.
4 The bow of the mighty is overcome, and the weak are girt with strength.
Vareniem stops ir salauzts, un vājie ir apjozti ar stiprumu;
5 They that were full before have hired out themselves for bread: and the hungry are filled, so that the barren hath borne many: and she that had many children is weakened.
Paēdušie sader par maizi, un izsalkušie vairs nav izsalkuši. Pati neauglīgā dzemdē septiņus, kam bija daudz bērnu, tā savīst.
6 The Lord killeth and maketh alive, he bringeth down to hell and bringeth back again. (Sheol )
Tas Kungs nokauj un dara dzīvu, Viņš noved ellē un atkal uzved augšā. (Sheol )
7 The Lord maketh poor and maketh rich, he humbleth and he exalteth.
Tas Kungs dara nabagu un dara bagātu, Viņš pazemo un paaugstina.
8 He raiseth up the needy from the dust, and lifteth up the poor from the dunghill: that he may sit with princes, and hold the throne of glory. For the poles of the earth are the Lord’s, and upon them he hath set the world.
Viņš uzceļ nabagu no pīšļiem, un bēdīgo Viņš paaugstina no dubļiem, ka Viņš tos sēdina starp lieliem kungiem un tiem liek iemantot goda krēslu; jo zemes pamati pieder Tam Kungam, un Viņš uz tiem pasauli licis.
9 He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness, because no man shall prevail by his own strength.
Savu svēto kājas Viņš pasargā; bet tie bezdievīgie tumsībā iet bojā: jo neviens nav varens caur (savu) spēku.
10 The adversaries of the Lord shall fear him: and upon them shall he thunder in the heavens. The Lord shall judge the ends of the earth, and he shall give empire to his king, and shall exalt the horn of his Christ.
Tas Kungs - Viņa pretinieki top iztrūcināti, debesīs pār tiem Viņš liek pērkoniem rūkt. Tas Kungs tiesās zemes galus un dos Savam ķēniņam spēku un paaugstinās Sava svaidītā ragu.”
11 And Elcana went to Ramatha, to his house: but the child ministered in the sight of the Lord before the face of Heli the priest.
Un Elkanus nogāja uz Rāmatu savā namā, bet tas zēns kalpoja Tam Kungam priestera Elus priekšā.
12 Now the sons of Heli were children of Belial, not knowing the Lord,
Bet Elus dēli bija netikli, tie neatzina To Kungu.
13 Nor the office of the priests to the people: but whosoever had offered a sacrifice, the servant of the priest came, while the flesh was in boiling, with a fleshhook of three teeth in his hand,
Un priesteru ieradums ar ļaudīm bija: kad kāds upuri upurēja, tad priestera puisis nāca, kamēr tā gaļa vārījās, - un tam dakšas ar trim zariem bija rokā, -
14 And thrust it into the kettle, or into the caldron, or into the pot, or into the pan: and all that the fleshhook brought up, the priest took to himself. Thus did they to all Israel that came to Silo.
Un bakstīja grāpī vai katlā vai pannā vai podā. Ko nu tās dakšas uzvilka, to priesteris ņēma priekš sevis. Tā tie darīja visiem Israēla ļaudīm, kas tur nāca uz Šīlo.
15 Also before they burnt the fat, the servant of the priest came, and said to the man that sacrificed: Give me flesh to boil for the priest: for I will not take of thee sodden flesh, but raw.
Un pirms tie tos taukus iededzināja, priestera puisis nāca un sacīja uz to vīru, kas upurēja: dod gaļas priesterim priekš cepeša, jo viņš no tevis negrib vārītu gaļu, bet jēlu.
16 And he that sacrificed said to him: Let the fat first be burnt today according to the custom, and then take as much as thy soul desireth. But he answered and said to him: Not so: but thou shalt give it me now, or else I will take it by force.
Ja kas uz to sacīja: pašu laiku(vispirms) tos taukus iededzinās, tad ņem priekš sevis, kā tava sirds kāro, - tad šis uz to sacīja: nupat tev būs dot, un ja ne, tad es ņemšu ar varu.
17 Wherefore the sin of the young men was exceeding great before the Lord: because they withdrew men from the sacrifice of the Lord.
Tā šo puišu grēki bija ļoti lieli Tā Kunga priekšā, jo šie vīri nicināja Tā Kunga ēdamo upuri. -
18 But Samuel ministered before the face of the Lord: being a child girded with a linen ephod.
Bet Samuēls kalpoja Tā Kunga priekšā, puisis būdams, apjozts ar nātnu efodu.
19 And his mother made him a little coat, which she brought to him on the appointed days, when she went up with her husband, to offer the solemn sacrifice.
Un māte viņam taisīja mazus svārciņus un tos viņam nesa ik gadus, kad ar savu vīru nāca, gadskārtējo upuri upurēt.
20 And Heli blessed Elcana and his wife: and he said to him: The Lord give thee seed of this woman, for the loan thou hast lent to the Lord. And they went to their own home.
Un Elus svētīja Elkanu un viņa sievu un sacīja: lai Tas Kungs tev dod dzimumu no šās sievas, par to izlūgto, ko viņa no Tā Kunga ir izlūgusi. Un tie gāja uz savu māju.
21 And the Lord visited Anna, and she conceived, and bore three sons and two daughters: and the child Samuel became great before the Lord.
Un Tas Kungs piemeklēja Annu un tā tapa grūta un dzemdēja trīs dēlus un divas meitas. Bet tas puisītis Samuēls uzauga pie Tā Kunga.
22 Now Heli was very old, and he heard all that his sons did to all Israel: and how they lay with the women that waited at the door of the tabernacle:
Un Elus bija ļoti vecs un dzirdēja visu, ko viņa dēli visam Israēlim darīja, un ka tie gulēja pie tām sievām, kas sapulcējās priekš saiešanas telts durvīm.
23 And he said to them: Why do ye these kinds of things, which I hear, very wicked things, from all the people?
Un viņš uz tiem sacīja: kāpēc jūs darāt tādas lietas? Kā es par jums tādu neslavu dzirdu no visiem šiem ļaudīm?
24 Do not so, my sons: for it is no good report that I hear, that you make the people of the Lord to transgress.
Nē, mani bērni, tā nav laba slava, ko es dzirdu, jo jūs darāt Tā Kunga ļaudis pārkāpjam.
25 If one man shall sin against another, God may be appeased in his behalf: but if a man shall sin against the Lord, who shall pray for him? And they hearkened not to the voice of their father, because the Lord would slay them.
Kad cilvēks pret cilvēku grēko, tad tiesas kungi to izlīdzina, bet kad cilvēks pret To Kungu grēko, kas priekš tāda var aizlūgt? Bet tie neklausīja sava tēva balsi, jo Tas Kungs tos gribēja nokaut.
26 But the child Samuel advanced, and grew on, and pleased both the Lord and men.
Un tas puisis Samuēls augdams auga un patika gan Tam Kungam, gan tiem ļaudīm.
27 And there came a man of God to Heli, and said to him: Thus saith the Lord: Did I not plainly appear to thy father’s house, when they were in Egypt in the house of Pharao?
Un viens Dieva vīrs nāca pie Elus un uz to sacīja: tā saka Tas Kungs: vai Es neesmu skaidri parādījies tava tēva namam, kad tie bija Ēģiptes zemē Faraona namā,
28 And I chose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to go up to my sitar, and burn incense to me, and to wear the ephod before me: and I gave to thy father’s house of all the sacrifices of the children of Israel.
Un to no visām Israēla ciltīm Sev esmu licis par priesteri, upurēt uz Mana altāra, kvēpināmās zāles iededzināt un to plecu apsegu nest Manā priekšā, un Es tava tēva namam esmu devis visus Israēla bērnu uguns upurus.
29 Why have you kicked away my victims, and my gifts which I commanded to be offered in the temple: and thou hast rather honoured thy sons than me, to eat the firstfruits of every sacrifice of my people Israel?
Kāpēc tad jūs kājām minat Manu upuri un Manu ēdamo upuri, ko Es esmu pavēlējis (nest Manā) dzīvoklī? Un tu godā savus dēlus vairāk nekā Mani, ka jūs barojaties no visu Manu Israēla ļaužu upuru pirmajiem.
30 Wherefore thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father should minister in my sight, for ever. But now saith the Lord: Far be this from me: but whosoever shall glorify me, him will I glorify: but they that despise me, shall be despised.
Tādēļ Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs, saka: gan Es biju skaidri sacījis: tavam namam un tava tēva namam bija Manā priekšā staigāt mūžīgi. Bet nu Tas Kungs saka: nemūžam nē, bet kas Mani godā, tos Es godāju, un kas Mani nicina, tie paliek kaunā.
31 Behold the days come: and I will cut off thy arm, and the arm of thy father’s house, that there shall not be an old man in thy house.
Redzi, nāk dienas, tad Es nocirtīšu tavu elkoni un tava tēva nama elkoni, tā ka neviena veca vairs nebūs tavā namā.
32 And thou shalt see thy rival in the temple, in all the prosperity of Israel, and there shall not be an old man in thy house for ever.
Un tu redzēsi (Dieva) dzīvokļa bēdas pie visa, ko Viņš Israēlim labu darīs, un veca nebūs tavā namā nemūžam.
33 However I will not altogether take away a man of thee from my altar: but that thy eyes may faint and thy soul be spent: and a great part of thy house shall die when they come to man’s estate.
Tomēr visus Es tev neizdeldēšu no Mana altāra, ka tavām acīm būs īgt un tavai dvēselei iztvīkt, bet viss tava nama dzimums mirs vīra gados.
34 And this shall be a sign to thee, that shall come upon thy two sons, Ophni and Phinees: In one day they shall both of them die.
Šī nu būs tā zīme, kas nāks pār taviem abiem dēliem, par Hofnu un Pinehasu: vienā dienā abi mirs.
35 And I will raise me up a faithful priest, who shall do according to my heart, and my soul, and I will build him a faithful house, and he shall walk all days before my anointed.
Un Es Sev celšu uzticīgu priesteri; tas darīs pēc Manas sirds un dvēseles, tam Es uztaisīšu pastāvīgu namu, un tas staigās priekš Mana svaidītā vienmēr.
36 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall remain in thy house, shall come that he may be prayed for, and shall offer a piece of silver, and a roll of bread, and shall say: Put me, I beseech thee, to somewhat of the priestly office, that I may eat a morsel of bread.
Un kas vēl atliks no tava nama, nāks un klanīsies priekš viņa par naudas artavu un par maizes riecienu un sacīs: pieņem mani lūdzams kādā priestera amatā, ka dabūju maizes kumosu, ko ēst.
