< Judges 11 >
1 Then Gilead begate Iphtah, and Iphtah the Gileadite was a valiant man, but the sonne of an harlot.
Jeftus, tas Gileādietis, bija stiprs karavīrs, bet viņš bija maukas bērns, ko Gileāds bija dzemdinājis.
2 And Gileads wife bare him sonnes, and when the womans children were come to age, they thrust out Iphtah, and sayd vnto him, Thou shalt not inherite in our fathers house: for thou art the sonne of a strange woman.
Kad nu Gileāda sieva viņam bērnus dzemdēja, un šās sievas bērni pieauga, tad tie Jeftu izdzina un uz to sacīja: tev nebūs mantot mūsu tēva namā, jo tu esi citas sievas dēls.
3 Then Iphtah fledde from his brethren, and dwelt in the land of Tob: and there gathered idle fellowes to Iphtah, and went out with him.
Tad Jeftus bēga no saviem brāļiem un dzīvoja Tobas zemē, un pie Jeftus sapulcējās nelieši un izgāja līdz ar viņu.
4 And in processe of time the children of Ammon made warre with Israel.
Un pēc kāda laika Amona bērni karoja pret Israēli.
5 And when the children of Ammon fought with Israel, the Elders of Gilead went to fet Iphtah out of the land of Tob.
Un kad Amona bērni pret Israēli karoja, tad Gileādas vecaji nogāja, Jeftu atvest no Toba zemes.
6 And they saide vnto Iphtah, Come and be our captaine, that we may fight with the children of Ammon.
Un tie sacīja uz Jeftu: nāc un esi mums par vadoni un karosim pret Amona bērniem.
7 Iphtah then answered the Elders of Gilead, Did not ye hate me, and expell me out of my fathers house? how then come you vnto me now in time of your tribulation?
Bet Jeftus sacīja uz Gileādas vecajiem: vai jūs mani neesat ienīdējuši un mani izdzinuši no mana tēva nama? Kāpēc tad jūs nu nākat pie manis, kad jums ir bēdas?
8 Then the Elders of Gilead saide vnto Iphtah, Therefore we turne againe to thee now, that thou mayest goe with vs, and fight against the children of Ammon, and bee our head ouer all the inhabitants of Gilead.
Un Gileādas vecaji sacīja uz Jeftu: tāpēc mēs nu pie tevis esam griezušies, ka tev būs iet ar mums un karot pret Amona bērniem; un tev būs būt par galvu mums, visiem Gileāda iedzīvotājiem.
9 And Iphtah said vnto the Elders of Gilead, If ye bring me home againe to fight against the children of Ammon, if the Lord giue them before me, shall I be your head?
Un Jeftus sacīja uz Gileādas vecajiem: kad jūs mani atpakaļ vedat, karot pret Amona bērniem, un kad Tas Kungs tos nodos manā priekšā, tad es jums būšu par galvu.
10 And the Elders of Gilead saide to Iphtah, The Lord be witnesse betweene vs, if we doe not according to thy wordes.
Un Gileādas vecaji sacīja uz Jeftu: lai Tas Kungs dzird mūsu sarunu, ja mēs tā nedarīsim, kā tu esi runājis.
11 Then Iphtah went with the Elders of Gilead, and the people made him head and captaine ouer them: and Iphtah rehearsed all his wordes before the Lord in Mizpeh.
Tad Jeftus gāja līdz Gileādas vecajiem, un tie ļaudis viņu iecēla sev par galvu un par vadoni, un Jeftus runāja visus savus vārdus Tā Kunga priekšā Micpā.
12 Then Iphtah sent messengers vnto the king of the children of Ammon, saying, What hast thou to doe with me, that thou art come against me, to fight in my lande?
Un Jeftus sūtīja vēstnešus pie Amona bērnu ķēniņa un sacīja: kas tev ar mani, ka tu pie manis esi nācis, karot pret manu zemi?
13 And the King of the children of Ammon answered vnto the messengers of Iphtah, Because Israel tooke my lande, when they came vp from Egypt, from Arnon vnto Iabbok, and vnto Iorden: now therefore restore those lands quietly.
Un Amona bērnu ķēniņš sacīja uz Jeftus vēstnešiem: tāpēc ka Israēls paņēmis manu zemi, kad viņš no Ēģiptes atnāca, no Arnonas līdz Jabokai un līdz Jardānei; tad nu atdod man to ar labu.
14 Yet Iphtah sent messengers againe vnto the King of the children of Ammon,
Bet Jeftus sūtīja atkal vēstnešus pie Amona bērnu ķēniņa.
15 And said vnto him, Thus saith Iphtah, Israel tooke not the lande of Moab, nor the lande of the children of Ammon.
Un uz to sacīja: tā saka Jeftus: Israēls nav ņēmis ne Moaba zemi, ne Amona bērnu zemi.
16 But when Israel came vp from Egypt, and walked through the wildernesse vnto the redde Sea, then they came to Kadesh.
Jo kad viņš no Ēģiptes izgāja, tad Israēls gāja pa tuksnesi līdz niedru jūrai un nāca uz Kādešu.
17 And Israel sent messengers vnto the king of Edom, saying, Let me, I pray thee, goe thorowe thy lande: but the King of Edom woulde not consent: and also they sent vnto the King of Moab, but he would not: therefore Israel abode in Kadesh.
Un Israēls sūtīja vēstnešus pie Edoma ķēniņa un sacīja: ļauj man jel iet caur tavu zemi, bet Edoma ķēniņš neklausīja. Un viņš sūtīja arī pie Moaba ķēniņa; tas arī negribēja. Tā Israēls palika Kādešā.
18 Then they went through the wildernesse, and compassed the lande of Edom, and the lande of Moab, and came by the Eastside of the lande of Moab, and pitched on the other side of Arnon, and came not within the coast of Moab: for Arnon was the border of Moab.
Pēc tam viņš staigaja pa tuksnesi un apgāja ap Edoma zemi un Moaba zemi un nāca no rīta puses uz Moaba zemi; un tie apmetās viņpus Arnonas, bet tie nenāca Moabiešu robežās, jo Arnona ir Moabiešu robeža.
19 Also Israel sent messengers vnto Sihon, King of the Amorites, the King of Heshbon, and Israel said vnto him, Let vs passe, we pray thee, by thy lande vnto our place.
Bet Israēls sūtīja vēstnešus pie Sihona, Amoriešu ķēniņa, kas bija Hešbonas ķēniņš, un Israēls uz viņu sacīja: ļauj mums jel iet caur tavu zemi līdz savai vietai.
20 But Sihon consented not to Israel, that he shoulde goe through his coast: but Sihon gathered all his people together, and pitched in Iahaz, and fought with Israel.
Bet Sihons Israēlim neuzticējās, ka tas tam būtu ļāvis iet caur savām robežām, bet Sihons sapulcēja visus savus ļaudis, un tie apmetās Jācā un karoja pret Israēli.
21 And the Lord God of Israel gaue Sihon and all his folke into the handes of Israel, and they smote them: so Israel possessed all the lande of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that countrey:
Un Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs, nodeva Sihonu un visus viņa ļaudis Israēla rokā, ka tie tos sakāva, un Israēls iemantoja visu to zemi no Amoriešiem, kas tai zemē dzīvoja.
22 And they possessed all the coast of the Amorites, from Arnon vnto Iabbok, and from the wildernesse euen vnto Iorden.
Un tie uzņēma visas Amoriešu robežas no Arnonas līdz Jabokai un no tuksneša līdz Jardānei.
23 Nowe therefore the Lord God of Israel hath cast out the Amorites before his people Israel, and shouldest thou possesse it?
Tā nu Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs, izdzinis Amoriešus Savu Israēla ļaužu priekšā, un tu gribi uzņemt to zemi?
24 Wouldest not thou possesse that which Chemosh thy god giueth thee to possesse? So whomesoeuer the Lord our God driueth out before vs, them will we possesse.
Vai tev to nebūs paturēt, ko tavs dievs Kamos tev ir devis? Un mēs gribam paturēt visu to, ko Tas Kungs, mūsu Dievs, mums ir devis.
25 And art thou nowe farre better then Balak the sonne of Zippor King of Moab? did he not striue with Israel and fight against them,
Un nu, vai tu esi labāks nekā Balaks, Cipora dēls, Moaba ķēniņš? Vai tas ar Israēli tiesājies, vai tas pret viņiem karojis?
26 When Israel dwelt in Heshbon and in her townes, and in Aroer and in her townes, and in all the cities that are by the coastes of Arnon, three hundreth yeeres? why did ye not then recouer them in that space?
Kamēr Israēls dzīvojis Hešbonā un viņas ciemos un Aroērā un viņas ciemos un visās pilsētās, kas pie Arnonas, trīssimt gadus, - kāpēc tu tanī laikā tos neesi atņēmis?
27 Wherefore, I haue not offended thee: but thou doest me wrong to warre against me. The Lord the Iudge be iudge this day betweene the children of Israel, and the children of Ammon.
Un es pret tevi neesmu grēkojis, bet tu dari pret mani ļaunu, pret mani karodams. Tas Kungs, kas ir soģis, lai šodien tiesā starp Israēla bērniem un Amona bērniem.
28 Howbeit the King of the children of Ammon hearkened not vnto the wordes of Iphtah, which he had sent him.
Bet Amona bērnu ķēniņš neklausīja Jeftus vārdiem, ko viņš pie tā bija sūtījis.
29 Then the Spirite of the Lord came vpon Iphtah, and he passed ouer to Gilead and to Manasseh, and came to Mizpeh in Gilead, and from Mizpeh in Gilead he went vnto the children of Ammon.
Tad Tā Kunga Gars nāca uz Jeftu, un viņš gāja caur Gileādu un Manasu, un viņš gāja uz Micpu Gileādā un no Micpas Gileādā viņš gāja pret Amona bērniem.
30 And Iphtah vowed a vowe vnto the Lord, and said, If thou shalt deliuer the children of Ammon into mine handes,
Un Jeftus solīja solījumu Tam Kungam un sacīja: ja tu Amona bērnus dosi manā rokā,
31 Then that thing that commeth out of the doores of mine house to meete me, when I come home in peace from the children of Ammon, shall be the Lordes, and I will offer it for a burnt offering.
Tad tam, kas no mana nama durvīm man nāks pretī, kad es ar mieru no Amona bērniem griezīšos atpakaļ, būs piederēt Tam Kungam, un es to upurēšu par dedzināmo upuri.
32 And so Iphtah went vnto the children of Ammon to fight against them, and the Lord deliuered them into his handes.
Tad Jeftus gāja pret Amona bērniem ar tiem kauties, un Tas Kungs tos nodeva viņa rokā.
33 And he smote them from Aroer euen till thou come to Minnith, twentie cities, and so foorth to Abel of the vineyardes, with an exceeding great slaughter. Thus the children of Ammon were humbled before the children of Israel.
Un viņš tos kāva varen lielā kaušanā no Aroēra, kamēr nāk uz Minitu, divdesmit pilsētas, un līdz tiem vīna kalnu klajumiem; tā Amona bērni tapa pazemoti Israēla bērnu priekšā.
34 Nowe when Iphtah came to Mizpeh vnto his house, beholde, his daughter came out to meete him with timbrels and daunces, which was his onely childe: he had none other sonne, nor daughter.
Kad nu Jeftus nāca uz Micpu pie sava nama, redzi, tad viņa meita viņam izgāja pretī ar bungām un stabulēm, un viņa bija tikai viņa vienīgā, un viņam nebija bez tās ne dēla ne meitas.
35 And when hee sawe her, hee rent his clothes, and saide, Alas my daughter, thou hast brought me lowe, and art of them that trouble me: for I haue opened my mouth vnto the Lord, and can not goe backe.
Un kad viņš to redzēja, tad viņš saplosīja savas drēbes un sacīja: ak mana meita! Tu mani lauztin esi salauzusi un tu mani apbēdini, jo es savu muti esmu atdarījis Tā Kunga priekšā un nevaru atrauties,
36 And she said vnto him, My father, if thou hast opened thy mouth vnto the Lord, doe with me as thou hast promised, seeing that the Lord hath auenged thee of thine enemies the children of Ammon.
Un viņa uz to sacīja: mans tēvs, ja tu savu muti Tā Kunga priekšā esi atdarījis, tad dari man, kā tas no tavas mutes gājis, kad Tas Kungs tevi atriebis pie taviem ienaidniekiem, Amona bērniem.
37 Also she saide vnto her father, Doe thus much for me: suffer me two moneths, that I may goe to the mountaines, and bewaile my virginitie, I and my fellowes.
Un viņa sacīja uz savu tēvu: lai man tā notiek; dod man vaļu divus mēnešus, ka es eju un noeju kalnos un apraudu savu jumpravību, es ar savām biedrenēm.
38 And he sayde, Goe: and he sent her away two moneths: so she went with her companions, and lamented her virginitie vpon the moutaines.
Un viņš sacīja: ej! Un viņš to atlaida divus mēnešus. Tad viņa nogāja ar savām biedrenēm un apraudāja kalnos savu jumpravību.
39 And after the ende of two moneths, she turned againe vnto her father, who did with her according to his vowe which he had vowed, and she had knowen no man. and it was a custome in Israel:
Un pēc diviem mēnešiem tā griezās atpakaļ pie sava tēva, un viņš tai darīja pēc sava solījuma, ko viņš bija solījis, un viņa vīra neatzina.
40 The daughters of Israel went yere by yere to lament the daughter of Iphtah the Gileadite, foure dayes in a yeere.
Un iekš Israēla palika par likumu, ka Israēla meitas ik gadus nogāja, Jeftus, tā Gileādieša, meitu, nožēlot četras dienas gadskārtā.
