Isaiah 36
1 In the fourteenth year of the reign of Hezekiah, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, attacked and conquered all the fortified towns of Judah.
Un notikās ķēniņa Hizkijas četrpadsmitā gadā, tad Sanheribs, Asīrijas ķēniņš, cēlās pret visām stiprām Jūda pilsētām un tās uzņēma.
2 The king of Assyria sent his army general, along with a large army, from Lachish to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem. He stopped by the aqueduct of the upper pool, on the road to the Launderer's Field.
Un Asīrijas ķēniņš sūtīja Rabzaku no Laķisa uz Jeruzālemi pie ķēniņa Hizkijas ar varen lielu karaspēku, un viņš stāvēja pie augšēja dīķa grāvjiem, vadmalnieka tīruma ceļa malā.
3 Eliakim, son of Hilkiah, the palace manager, Shebnah the scribe, and Joah, son of Asaph, the record-keeper, went out to speak with him.
Tad pie viņa izgāja nama uzraugs Elijaķims, Hilķijas dēls, un skrīveris Šebna, un kanclers Joaks, Asafa dēls.
4 The Assyrian army general said to them, “Tell Hezekiah this is what the great king, the king of Assyria, says: What are you trusting in that gives you such confidence?
Un Rabzakus uz tiem sacīja: sakāt jel Hizkijam: Tā saka tas lielais ķēniņš, Asīrijas ķēniņš: Kas tas tāds patvērums, uz ko tu paļaujies?
5 You say you have a strategy and are ready for war, but these are empty words. Who are you relying on, now that you have rebelled against me?
Es saku: tas ir tukšs vārds, ka diezgan esot padoma un spēka uz karu; uz ko tad tu paļaujies, ka tu no manis esi atkritis?
6 Now look! You're trusting in Egypt, a walking stick that's like a broken reed that will cut the hand of anyone leaning on it. That's what Pharaoh, king of Egypt, is like to everyone who trusts in him.
Redzi, tu paļaujies uz to salūzušo niedri, uz Ēģipti. Kas uz to atspiežas, tam tā ies rokā un to pārdurs. Tāds ir faraons, Ēģiptes ķēniņš, visiem, kas uz viņu paļaujas.
7 If you tell me, ‘We're trusting in the Lord our God,’ well didn't Hezekiah remove his high places and his altars, telling Judah and Jerusalem: ‘You have to worship at this altar in Jerusalem’?
Bet ja tu uz mani saki: Mēs paļaujamies uz To Kungu, savu Dievu, - vai tas nav tas pats, kam kalnus un altārus Hizkija ir nopostījis un sacījis uz Jūdu un Jeruzālemi: priekš šī altāra še jums būs pielūgt?
8 Why don't you accept a challenge from my master, the king of Assyria? He says, I'll give you two thousand horses, if you can find enough riders for them!
Nu tad, noderi jel ar manu kungu, Asīrijas ķēniņu, un es tev došu divtūkstoš zirgus, ja tev ir jātnieki, ko tiem likt virsū.
9 How could you defeat even a single officer in charge of the weakest of my master's men when you're trusting in Egypt for chariots and horsemen?
Kā tad tu varēsi atsist atpakaļ vienu pašu virsnieku no mana kunga vismazākiem kalpiem? Bet tu paļaujies uz Ēģipti, ratu un jātnieku dēļ.
10 More than that—would I have come to attack this place without the Lord's encouragement? It was the Lord himself who told me, ‘Go and attack this land and destroy it.’”
Vai tad nu es bez Tā Kunga esmu cēlies pret šo zemi, to izpostīt? Tas Kungs uz mani sacījis: Celies pret šo zemi un izposti to!
11 Eliakim, Shebnah, and Joah, said to the army general, “Please speak to us, your servants, in Aramaic, for we understand it. Don't speak to us in Hebrew while the people on the wall are listening.”
Tad Elijaķims un Šebna un Joāks sacīja uz Rabzaku: Runā jel ar saviem kalpiem sīriski, mēs to gan protam, un nerunā ar mums jūdiski priekš šo ļaužu ausīm, kas ir uz mūra.
12 But the army general replied, “Did my master only send me to say these things to your master and to you, and not to the people sitting on the wall? They too, just like you, are going to have to eat their own excrement and drink their own urine!”
Bet Rabzakus sacīja: Vai mans kungs mani sūtījis pie tava kunga un pie tevis, šos vārdus runāt, vai ne pie tiem vīriem, kas sēž uz mūra, kam līdz ar jums būs jāēd savi sūdi un jādzer savi mīzali?
13 Then the army general shouted out in Hebrew, “Listen to this from the great king, the king of Assyria!
Un Rabzakus nostājās un sauca ar stipru balsi jūdiski un sacīja: klausāties tā lielā ķēniņa, Asīrijas ķēniņa, vārdus!
14 This is what the king says: Don't let Hezekiah trick you! He can't save you!
Tā saka ķēniņš: Lai Hizkija jūs neapmāna, jo viņš jūs nevarēs izglābt.
15 Don't believe Hezekiah when he tells you to trust in the Lord, saying, ‘I'm certain the Lord will save us. This city will never fall into the hands of the king of Assyria.’
Lai arī Hizkija jums nedara cerību uz To Kungu, sacīdams: tiešām, Tas Kungs mūs izglābs, šī pilsēta netaps dota Asīrijas ķēniņa rokā!
16 Don't listen to Hezekiah. This is what the king says: Make a peace treaty with me and surrender to me. That way everyone will eat from their own vine and their own fig tree, and drink water from their own well!
Neklausāties uz Hizkiju. Jo tā saka Asīrijas ķēniņš: Deriet ar mani mieru un nākat pie manis ārā, tad ikviens ēdīs no sava vīna koka un ikviens no sava vīģes koka, un ikviens dzers ūdeni no savas akas,
17 I will come and take you to a land that's like your own, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards.
Kamēr es nākšu, un jūs aizvedīšu tādā zemē, kā jūsu zeme, zeme, kur ir labība un vīns, zeme, kur ir maize un vīna dārzi.
18 But don't let Hezekiah trick you when he says, ‘The Lord will deliver us.’ Have any of the gods of any nation ever saved their land from the power of the king of Assyria?
Lai Hizkija jūs nepieviļ, sacīdams: Tas Kungs mūs izglābs! Vai gan pagānu dievi ikviens savu zemi izglābuši no Asīrijas ķēniņa rokas?
19 Where were the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where were the gods of Sepharvaim? Were they able to save Samaria from me?
Kur ir Hamatas un Arpadas dievi, kur ir Sefarvaimas dievi? Vai tie gan Samariju izglābuši no manas rokas?
20 Which one of all the gods of these countries has saved their land from me? How then could the Lord save Jerusalem from me?”
Kurš no visiem šo zemju dieviem savu zemi izglābis no manas rokas? Kā tad Tas Kungs Jeruzālemi izglābs no manas rokas?
21 But the people remained silent and didn't say anything, for Hezekiah had given the order, “Don't answer him.”
Bet tie cieta klusu un viņam neatbildēja neviena vārda, jo ķēniņš bija pavēlējis un sacījis: Jums nebūs viņam atbildēt.
22 Then Eliakim, son of Hilkiah, the palace manager, Shebna the scribe, and Joah, son of Asaph, the record-keeper, went to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and they told him what the Assyrian army general had said.
Tad nama uzraugs Elijaķims, Hilķijas dēls, un skrīveris Šebna un kanclers Joaks, Asafa dēls, nāca pie Hizkijas ar saplēstām drēbēm un viņam stāstīja Rabzakus vārdus.
