2 Chronicles 30
1 Then Hezekiah sent an announcement to everyone in Israel and Judah, and also sent letters to Ephraim and Manasseh, inviting them to come to the Lord's Temple in Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover of the Lord, the God of Israel.
Un Hizkija sūtīja pie visa Israēla un Jūda un rakstīja grāmatas arī uz Efraīmu un Manasu, lai nāk Tā Kunga namā uz Jeruzālemi, svētīt Pasa svētkus Tam Kungam, Israēla Dievam.
2 The king and his officials and the whole assembly in Jerusalem had decided to observe the Passover in the second month,
Jo ķēniņš ar tiem lielkungiem un ar visu draudzi Jeruzālemē bija nospriedis, svētīt Pasa svētkus otrā mēnesī.
3 because they hadn't been able to observe it at the usual time since not enough priests had purified themselves and the people hadn't had time to get to Jerusalem.
Jo īstenā laikā tie tos nepaspēja svētīt, tāpēc ka priesteru nebija diezgan svētījušies, un ļaudis Jeruzālemē nebija sapulcējušies.
4 The plan seemed right to both the king and the whole assembly.
Un šī lieta patika ķēniņam un visai draudzei.
5 So they decided to send an announcement to everyone in Israel, from Beersheba to Dan, inviting people to come and keep the Passover to the Lord, the God of Israel, in Jerusalem, for many had not done as the Law required.
Un tie pavēlēja, izsaukt pa visu Israēli, no Bēršebas līdz Danai, lai nāk Tam Kungam, Israēla Dievam, svētīt Pasa svētkus Jeruzālemē, - jo lielā sapulcē tie tos nebija turējuši, kā ir rakstīts.
6 So messengers went to all of Israel and Judah carrying letters from the king and his officials and with the king's authorization. They said, “Children of Israel, return to the Lord, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, so that he may return to you who are left, who have escaped the oppression of the kings of Assyria.
Tad skrējēji izgāja ar grāmatām no ķēniņa un lielkungu rokas pa visu Israēli un Jūdu, pēc ķēniņa pavēles sacīdami: jūs Israēla bērni, atgriežaties pie Tā Kunga, Ābrahāma, Īzaka un Israēla Dieva, tad arī viņš atgriezīsies pie tiem izglābtiem, kas jums atlikuši no Asiriešu ķēniņu rokas.
7 Don't be like your fathers and those of you who sinned against the Lord, the God of your forefathers He made them into something horrifying, as you can see.
Un neesat tādi, kā jūsu tēvi un jūsu brāļi, kas noziegušies pret To Kungu, savu tēvu Dievu, kādēļ Viņš tos nodevis postam, kā paši redzat.
8 So don't be proud and obstinate like your fathers, but give yourselves to the Lord and come to his sanctuary, which he has made holy forever, and serve the Lord your God, that his fierce anger may no longer fall on you.
Nu tad neesat stūrgalvīgi kā jūsu tēvi, dodiet Tam Kungam savu roku un nāciet Viņa svētā vietā, ko Viņš ir svētījis mūžīgi un kalpojiet Tam Kungam, savam Dievam, tad Viņa bargā dusmība no jums novērsīsies.
9 If you come back to the Lord, your relatives and children will receive mercy from their captors and will return to this land. For the Lord your God is gracious and merciful. He will not reject you if you come back to him.”
Jo kad jūs atgriezīsities pie Tā Kunga, tad jūsu brāļi un jūsu bērni dabūs žēlastību pie tiem, kas tos veduši cietumā, tā ka atkal atnāks šaizemē. Jo Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, ir žēlīgs un žēlsirdīgs un nenovērsīs Savu vaigu no jums, ja jūs atgriezīsities pie Viņa.
10 The messengers went from town to town all over the land of Ephraim and Manasseh as far as Zebulun; but the people laughed at them and mocked them.
Tā tie skrējēji gāja no pilsētas uz pilsētu pa Efraīma un Manasus zemi līdz Zebulonam; bet šie tos apsmēja un apmēdīja.
11 Only some men from Asher, Manasseh, and Zebulun weren't too proud to go to Jerusalem.
Bet taču kādi no Ašera un Manasus un Zebulona pazemojās un nāca uz Jeruzālemi.
12 At this time the power of God was helping the people in Judah to all have the same desire to follow the orders of the king and his officials, as indicated by the word of the Lord.
Arī pār Jūdu bija Dieva roka, un Viņš tiem deva vienādu sirdi, darīt ķēniņa un lielkungu pavēli pēc Tā Kunga vārda.
13 Many people gathered in Jerusalem to celebrate the Feast of Unleavened Bread in the second month—a really large crowd.
Un daudz ļaužu sapulcinājās Jeruzālemē, svētīt neraudzētās maizes svētkus otrā mēnesī, varen liela draudze.
14 They went and removed the pagan altars in Jerusalem as well as the incense altars and threw them into the Kidron Valley.
Un tie cēlās un noārdīja tos altārus, kas bija Jeruzālemē, un ņēma visus kvēpināmos traukus un tos iemeta Kidronas upē.
15 On the fourteenth day of the second month they killed the Passover lamb. The priests and Levites were ashamed, and they purified themselves and brought burnt offerings to the Lord's Temple.
Tad tie nokāva Pasa jērus otrā mēnesī četrpadsmitā dienā. Un priesteri un leviti prata savu kaunu un svētījās un nesa dedzināmos upurus Tā Kunga namā.
16 They stood at their assigned positions, according to the law of Moses, the man of God. The priests sprinkled the blood of the sacrifices, which the Levites gave to them.
Un tie stāvēja savā kārtā, pēc savas tiesas, pēc Dieva vīra Mozus bauslības. Priesteri slacināja asinis no levitu rokas (ņemdami).
17 Since many people in the assembly had not purified themselves, the Levites had to kill the Passover lambs on behalf of every unclean person to dedicate the lambs to the Lord.
Jo daudz bija draudzē, kas nebija svētījušies; tādēļ leviti nokāva Pasa jērus priekš visiem, kas nebija šķīsti, ka tos Tam Kungam svētītu.
18 Most of the people, many of those from Ephraim, Manasseh, Issachar, and Zebulun, had not purified themselves. Yet they ate the Passover meal even though this was not what the Law required, for Hezekiah had prayed for them, saying, “May the good Lord forgive everyone
Jo liels ļaužu pulks no Efraīma un no Manasus, Īsašara un Zebulona nebija šķīstījušies, un taču tie ēda to Pasa jēru, bet ne tā kā ir rakstīts. Bet Hizkija lūdza par tiem un sacīja: Tas Kungs, tas žēlīgais, lai to piedod
19 who sincerely wants to follow the Lord God, the God of their forefathers, even though they're not clean according to the sanctuary requirements.”
Visiem, kas savā sirdī taisījušies, meklēt Dievu To Kungu, savu tēvu Dievu, jebšu ne pēc svētās šķīstības.
20 The Lord accepted Hezekiah's prayer and permitted them this violation.
Un Tas Kungs paklausīja Hizkiju un dziedināja tos ļaudis.
21 The people of Israel who were there in Jerusalem celebrated the Feast of Unleavened Bread for seven days with great enthusiasm, and every day the Levites and priests praised the Lord, accompanied by loud instruments.
Tā Israēla bērni, kas Jeruzālemē bija sanākuši, turēja neraudzētās maizes svētkus septiņas dienas ar lielu prieku. Un leviti un priesteri slavēja To Kungu ikdienas ar mūzikas rīkiem Tam Kungam par godu.
22 Hezekiah spoke positively to all the Levites who showed a good understanding of the Lord. For seven days they ate the food that was assigned to them, presented friendship offerings, and gave thanks to the Lord, the God of their forefathers.
Un Hizkija runāja laipnīgi ar visiem levitiem, kas Tā Kunga kalpošanu labi zināja; un tie ēda svētku upurus septiņas dienas un upurēja pateicības upurus un teica To Kungu, savu tēvu Dievu.
23 Everyone then agreed to continue to celebrate the festival for seven more days. So for another seven days they celebrated, full of joy.
Un visa draudze nosprieda, vēl otras septiņas dienas svētīt, un tie svētīja vēl otras septiņas dienas ar prieku.
24 Hezekiah, king of Judah, gave a thousand bulls and seven thousand sheep as offerings on behalf of the assembly. The officials in turn gave a thousand bulls and ten thousand sheep on as offerings on behalf of the assembly. A large number of priests purified themselves.
Jo Hizkija, Jūda ķēniņš, deva draudzei tūkstoš vēršus un septiņtūkstoš avis. Un tie lielkungi deva draudzei tūkstoš vēršus un desmit tūkstoš avis. Un tie priesteri svētījās lielā pulkā.
25 The whole assembly of Judah celebrated, together with the priests and Levites, and also with the whole assembly that had come from Israel, including the foreigners from Israel and those living in Judah.
Un visa Jūda draudze priecājās līdz ar priesteriem un levitiem, arī visa draudze, kas bija nākusi no Israēla, un tie svešinieki, kas bija atnākuši no Israēla zemes, un kas iekš Jūda piemita.
26 There was such tremendous happiness in Jerusalem, for since the time of Solomon, son of David, king of Israel, nothing like this had happened in the city.
Tā bija liels prieks Jeruzālemē, jo no Salamana, Dāvida dēla, Israēla ķēniņa, laika Jeruzālemē tā nebija bijis.
27 The priests and the Levites stood up to bless the people, and God heard them—their prayer ascended to where he lived in heaven.
Un priesteri un leviti cēlās un svētīja tos ļaudis, un viņu balss tapa paklausīta, un viņu lūgšana nāca viņa svētā dzīvoklī debesīs.
