< 1 Kings 22 >
1 For three years Aram and Israel were not at war.
Un trīs gadus tiem bija miers un kara nebija starp Sīriešiem un Israēli.
2 But in the third year Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, went to visit the king of Israel.
Bet trešā gadā Jehošafats, Jūda ķēniņš, nogāja pie Israēla ķēniņa.
3 The king of Israel had said to his officers, “Aren't you aware that Ramoth-gilead really belongs to us and yet we haven't done anything to take it back from the king of Aram?”
Un Israēla ķēniņš sacīja uz saviem kalpiem: vai jūs nezināt, ka Rāmota Gileādā pieder mums, un mēs esam klusu un viņu neņemam no Sīriešu ķēniņa rokas?
4 So he asked Jehoshaphat, “Will you join me in an attack to recapture Ramoth-gilead?” Jehoshaphat replied to the king of Israel, “You and I are as one, my men and your men are as one, and my horses and your horses are as one.”
Un viņš sacīja uz Jehošafatu: vai tu ar mani gribi iet karā pret Rāmotu Gileādā? Un Jehošafats sacīja uz Israēla ķēniņu: es būšu kā tu, un mani ļaudis kā tavi ļaudis, un mani zirgi kā tavi zirgi.
5 Then Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, “But first though, please find out what the Lord says.”
Un Jehošafats sacīja uz Israēla ķēniņu: vaicā jel šodien Tā Kunga vārdu.
6 So the king of Israel brought out the prophets—four hundred of them—and he asked them, “Should I go up and attack Ramoth-gilead, or should I not?” “Yes, go ahead,” they replied, “for the Lord will hand it over to the king.”
Un Israēla ķēniņš sapulcināja tos praviešus, četrsimt vīrus, un sacīja uz tiem: vai man būs iet karā uz Rāmotu Gileādā, jeb vai man no tam būs atstāties? Un tie sacīja: celies, jo Tas Kungs viņu dos ķēniņa rokā.
7 But Jehoshaphat asked, “Isn't there another prophet of the Lord here that we can ask?”
Bet Jehošafats sacīja: vai še nav vēl kāds no Tā Kunga praviešiem, ka mēs to varētu vaicāt?
8 “Yes, there's another man who could consult the Lord,” the king of Israel replied, “but I don't like him because he never prophesies anything good for me—it's always bad! His name is Micaiah, son of Imlah.” “You shouldn't talk like that,” said Jehoshaphat.
Un Israēla ķēniņš sacīja uz Jehošafatu: vēl ir gan viens vīrs, caur ko To Kungu var vaicāt, bet es viņu ienīstu, jo tas man nesludina labu, bet ļaunu vien, Miha, Jemlas dēls. Un Jehošafats sacīja: lai ķēniņš tā nerunā.
9 The king of Israel called over one of his officials and told him, “Bring me Micaiah, son of Imlah, right away.”
Tad Israēla ķēniņš aicināja vienu sulaini un sacīja: atved drīz Mihu, Jemlas dēlu.
10 Dressed in their royal robes, the king of Israel and King Jehoshaphat of Judah, were sitting on their thrones at the threshing floor beside the gate of Samaria, with all of the prophets prophesying in front of them.
Un Israēla ķēniņš un Jehošafats, Jūda ķēniņš, sēdēja ikkatrs savā krēslā savās drēbēs ģērbušies tai pagalmā, kur ieiet pa Samarijas vārtiem, un visi pravieši sludināja viņu priekšā.
11 One of them, Zedekiah, son of Chenaanah, had made himself iron horns. He announced, “This is what the Lord says: ‘With these horns you will gore the Arameans until they're dead!”
Un Cedeķija, Kenaānas dēls, taisīja sev dzelzs ragus un sacīja: tā saka Tas Kungs: ar šiem tu badīsi Sīriešus, kamēr tos izdeldēsi.
12 All the prophets were prophesying the same thing, saying, “Go ahead, attack Ramoth-gilead; you will be successful, for the Lord will hand it over to the king.”
Un visi pravieši sludināja tā sacīdami: celies pret Rāmotu Gileādā, jums būs laba laime, jo Tas Kungs viņu dos ķēniņa rokā.
13 The messenger who went to call Micaiah told him, “Look, all the prophets are unanimous in prophesying positively to the king. So please make sure to speak positively like them.”
Un tas vēstnesis, kas bija gājis pēc Miha, uz to runāja un sacīja: redzi jel, tie pravieši runā vienā mutē labu ķēniņam, lai jel tavs vārds tāpat ir kā viņu vārds, un runā labu.
14 But Micaiah replied, “As the Lord lives, I can only say what my God tells me.”
Bet Miha sacīja: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvs, ko Tas Kungs uz mani sacīs, to es runāšu.
15 When he came before the king, the king asked him, “Should we go up and attack Ramoth-gilead, or should we not?” “Yes, go ahead and be victorious,” Micaiah replied, “for the Lord will give it into the king's hand.”
Un kad viņš nāca ķēniņa priekšā, tad ķēniņš uz viņu sacīja: Miha, vai mums būs iet karā pret Rāmotu Gileādā, jeb vai mums no tam būs atstāties? Un tas uz viņu sacīja: celies, tev izdosies, jo Tas Kungs viņu dos ķēniņa rokā.
16 But the king said to him, “How many times must I make you swear to tell me only the truth in the name of the Lord?”
Tad ķēniņš uz viņu sacīja: cik reiz man tev būs piekodināt, cita nekā man nesacīt kā taisnību Tā Kunga Vārdā?
17 So Micaiah answered, “I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains like sheep without a shepherd. The Lord said, ‘These people have no master; let each of them go home in peace.’”
Un viņš sacīja: es redzēju visu Israēli izklīdinātu pa kalniem, itin kā avis, kam gana nav. Un Tas Kungs sacīja: šiem kunga nav, lai ikviens ar mieru iet savā namā.
18 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “Didn't I tell you he never prophesies anything good for me, only bad?”
Tad Israēla ķēniņš sacīja uz Jehošafatu: vai es tev neesmu sacījis, ka viņš par mani labu nesludina, bet ļaunu?
19 Micaiah went on to say, “So listen to what the Lord says. I saw the Lord sitting on his throne, surrounded by the whole army of heaven standing to his right and to his left.
Un (Miha) sacīja: “Tādēļ klausi Tā Kunga vārdu: es redzēju To Kungu sēžam uz Sava goda krēsla un visu debess spēku ap Viņu stāvam pa labai un pa kreisai rokai.
20 The Lord asked, ‘Who will trick Ahab, king of Israel, into attacking Ramoth-gilead so he will be killed there?’ One said this, another said that, and another said something else.
Un Tas Kungs sacīja: “Kurš pierunās Ahabu, lai tas ceļas un krīt Rāmotā Gileādā?” Un viens runāja šā, otrs tā.
21 Finally a spirit came and approached the Lord and said, ‘I will trick him.’
Tad viens gars izgāja un nostājās Tā Kunga priekšā un sacīja: “Es viņu pierunāšu.” Tad Tas Kungs uz to sacīja: “Caur ko?”
22 ‘How are you going to do that?’ the Lord asked. ‘I will go and be a lying spirit and make all his prophets tell lies,’ the spirit replied. ‘That will work,’ the Lord responded. ‘Go and do it.’
Un viņš sacīja: “Es iziešu un būšu melu gars visu viņa praviešu mutē.” Un Viņš sacīja: “Tu viņu pierunāsi un arī pārspēsi; ej un dari tā.”
23 As you see, the Lord has put a lying spirit into these prophets of yours, and the Lord has pronounced your death sentence.”
Un nu redzi, Tas Kungs melu garu devis visu šo tavu praviešu mutē, un Tas Kungs par tevi ļaunu runājis.”
24 Then Zedekiah, son of Chenaanah, went and slapped Micaiah in the face, and demanded, “Which way did the Spirit of the Lord go when he left me to speak to you?”
Tad Cedeķija, Kenaānas dēls, piegāja un deva Miham pliķi un sacīja: kā tad Tā Kunga Gars būtu no manis atstājies, ar tevi runāt?
25 “You'll soon find out when you try and find some secret place to hide!” Micaiah replied.
Un Miha sacīja: redzi, to tu redzēsi tai dienā, kad tu no vienas istabas otrā iesi paslēpties.
26 The king of Israel ordered, “Place Micaiah under arrest and take him back to Amon the governor of the city and to my son Joash.
Un Israēla ķēniņš sacīja: ņem Mihu un ved to atpakaļ pie Amona, pilsētas virsnieka, un pie Joasa, ķēniņa dēla,
27 Tell them these are the king's instructions: ‘Put this man in jail. Give him only bread and water until my safe return.’”
Un saki: tā saka ķēniņš: liekat to cietumā un ēdinājiet to ar bēdu maizi un ar bēdu ūdeni, kamēr es atkal laimīgs pārnākšu.
28 “If you do in fact return safely then the Lord has not spoken through me,” Micaiah declared. “Pay attention everyone to all I've said!”
Un Miha sacīja: ja tu atkal laimīgs pārnāksi, tad Tas Kungs caur mani nav runājis. Un viņš sacīja: klausāties, visi ļaudis!
29 The king of Israel and Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, went to attack Ramoth-gilead.
Tā Israēla ķēniņš un Jehošafats, Jūda ķēniņš, cēlās pret Rāmotu Gileādā.
30 The king of Israel told Jehoshaphat, “When I go into battle I will be in disguise, but you should wear your royal robes.” So the king of Israel disguised himself and went into battle.
Un Israēla ķēniņš sacīja uz Jehošafatu: es pārģērbies iešu kaujā, bet tu ģērbies savās drēbēs. Un Israēla ķēniņš pārģērbās un gāja kaujā.
31 The king of Aram had already given these orders to his chariot commanders: “Head straight for the king of Israel alone. Don't fight with anyone else, whoever they are.”
Un Sīriešu ķēniņš saviem ratu virsniekiem (to bija trīsdesmit un divi) bija pavēlējis un sacījis: nelaužaties ne uz mazu ne uz lielu, bet uz Israēla ķēniņu vien.
32 So when the chariot commanders saw Jehoshaphat, they shouted, “This must be the king of Israel!” So they turned to attack him, but when Jehoshaphat called out for help,
Kad nu tie ratu virsnieki Jehošafatu redzēja, tad tie sacīja: tiešām tas ir Israēla ķēniņš, un tie griezās un lauzās uz viņu, bet Jehošafats brēca.
33 the chariot commanders saw it wasn't the king of Israel and stopped chasing him.
Kad nu tie ratu virsnieki redzēja, ka šis nebija Israēla ķēniņš, tad tie no viņa griezās nost.
34 However, an enemy archer shot an arrow at random, hitting the king of Israel between the joints of his armor by his breastplate. The king told his charioteer, “Turn around and get me out of the fight, because I've been wounded!”
Un viens vīrs uzvilka savu stopu no nejauši un iešāva Israēla ķēniņam starp sprādzēm un krūšu bruņām. Tad viņš sacīja uz savu ratu vadītāju: griez savu roku un izved mani no kaujas, jo es esmu ievainots.
35 The battle lasted all day. The king of Israel was propped up in his chariot to face the Arameans, but in the evening he died. The blood had poured out of his wound onto the floor of the chariot.
Un kaušanās palika karsta tai dienā, un ķēniņš stāvēja savos ratos Sīriešiem pretī un nomira vakarā; un asinis tecēja no vainas uz ratu grīdu.
36 At sunset, a shout went out from the lines: “Retreat! Every man back to his town, every man back to his own country!”
Tad pa visu karapulku saulei noejot sauca un sacīja: ikviens uz savu pilsētu, ikviens uz savu zemi!
37 So the king died. He was taken back to Samaria where they buried him.
Tā ķēniņš nomira un tapa novests uz Samariju, un ķēniņu apraka Samarijā.
38 They washed his chariot at a pool in Samaria where the prostitutes came to bathe, and dogs licked up his blood, just as the Lord had said.
Kad nu tos ratus mazgāja Samarijas dīķī, tad maukām mazgājoties suņi laizīja viņa asinis pēc Tā Kunga vārda, ko viņš bija runājis.
39 The rest of what happened in Ahab's reign, all that he did, the ivory palace he constructed and all the cities he built are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
Kas nu vēl par Ahabu stāstāms, un viss, ko viņš darījis, un tas ziloņkaulu nams, ko viņš taisījis, un visas pilsētas, ko viņš cēlis, tas viss rakstīts Israēla ķēniņu laiku grāmatā.
40 Ahab died and his son Ahaziah succeeded him as king.
Tā Ahabs aizmiga saviem tēviem pakaļ, un Ahazija, viņa dēls, palika par ķēniņu viņa vietā.
41 Jehoshaphat, son of Asa, became king of Judah in the fourth year of the reign of Ahab, king of Israel.
Un Jehošafats, Asas dēls, palika par ķēniņu pār Jūdu Ahaba, Israēla ķēniņa, ceturtā gadā.
42 Jehoshaphat was thirty-five when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for twenty-five years. His mother's name was Azubah, daughter of Shilhi.
Un Jehošafats bija trīsdesmit un piecus gadus vecs, kad viņš palika par ķēniņu un valdīja divdesmit un piecus gadus Jeruzālemē. Un viņa mātei bija vārds Azuba, Šilkus meita.
43 He followed all the ways of his father; he did not depart from them, and he did what was right in the Lord's sight. However, the high places were not removed and the people still sacrificed and presented offerings there.
Un viņš staigāja visos sava tēva Asas ceļos, viņš no tiem neatstājās un darīja, kas Tam Kungam patika. Tik tie kalnu altāri netapa nopostīti, un tie ļaudis upurēja un kvēpināja vēl pa tiem kalniem.
44 Jehoshaphat also made peace with the king of Israel.
Un Jehošafatam bija miers ar Israēla ķēniņu.
45 The rest of what happened in Jehoshaphat's reign, his great achievements and the wars he fought are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Judah.
Un kas vēl stāstāms par Jehošafatu un viņa spēks, ko viņš parādījis, un kā viņš karojis, tas viss ir rakstīts Jūda ķēniņu laiku grāmatā,
46 He expelled from the land any cult prostitutes who were left from the time of his father Asa.
Viņš arī izdzina no zemes tos atlikušos mauciniekus, kas Asas, viņa tēva, laikā bija atlikuši.
47 (At that time there was no king in Edom; only a deputy who served as king.)
To brīdi neviena ķēniņa nebija Edomā, bet ķēniņa vietnieks valdīja.
48 Jehoshaphat built sea-going ships to go to Ophir for gold, but they went because they were wrecked at Ezion-geber.
Un Jehošafats lika taisīt lielus kuģus, braukt uz Ofiru pēc zelta. Bet tie nenogāja, jo EceonĢeberā tie kuģi tapa sadragāti.
49 During that time Ahaziah, son of Ahab, asked Jehoshaphat, “Let my men sail with your men,” but Jehoshaphat refused.
Tad Ahazija, Ahaba dēls, sacīja uz Jehošafatu: lai mani kalpi iet ar taviem kalpiem līdzi uz laivām. Bet Jehošafats negribēja.
50 Jehoshaphat died and was buried with his forefathers in the City of David. His son Jehoram succeeded him as king.
Un Jehošafats aizmiga saviem tēviem pakaļ un tapa aprakts pie saviem tēviem Dāvida pilsētā. Un viņa dēls Jehorams palika par ķēniņu viņa vietā.
51 Ahaziah, son of Ahab, became king of Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, and he reigned over Israel for two years.
Un Ahazija, Ahaba dēls, palika par ķēniņu pār Israēli Samarijā Jehošafata, Jūda ķēniņa, septiņpadsmitā gadā, un valdīja divus gadus pār Israēli.
52 He did what was evil in the Lord's sight and followed the ways of his father and mother, and of Jeroboam, son of Nebat, who had made Israel sin.
Un viņš darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika, un staigāja sava tēva ceļā un savas mātes ceļā un Jerobeama, Nebata dēla, ceļā, kas Israēli paveda uz grēkiem.
53 He served Baal and worshiped him, and angered the Lord, the God of Israel, just as his father had.
Un viņš kalpoja Baālam un metās zemē priekš tā un apkaitināja To Kungu, Israēla Dievu, tā kā viņa tēvs bija darījis.
