< 2 Kings 10 >
1 Now Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. And Jehu wrote letters, and sent to Samaria, unto the rulers of Jezreel, even the elders, and unto them that brought up the sons of Ahab, saying:
Un Ahabam bija septiņdesmit dēli Samarijā, un Jeūs rakstīja grāmatas un tās sūtīja uz Samariju pie Jezreēles virsniekiem, pie tiem vecajiem un Ahaba bērnu uzraugiem ar šiem vārdiem:
2 'And now as soon as this letter cometh to you, seeing your master's sons are with you, and there are with you chariots and horses, fortified cities also, and armour;
Kad šī grāmata pie jums nonāk, un jūsu kunga dēli ir pie jums, un rati un zirgi, stipra pilsēta un bruņas,
3 look ye out the best and meetest of your master's sons, and set him on his father's throne, and fight for your master's house.'
Tad izredziet to labāko un taisnāko no sava kunga dēliem, un ieceļat to viņa tēva goda krēslā, un karojiet par sava kunga namu.
4 But they were exceedingly afraid, and said: 'Behold, the two kings stood not before him; how then shall we stand?'
Bet tie bijās varen ļoti un sacīja: redzi, divi ķēniņi viņa priekšā nav pastāvējuši, kā tad mēs pastāvēsim?
5 And he that was over the household, and he that was over the city, the elders also, and they that brought up the children, sent to Jehu, saying: 'We are thy servants, and will do all that thou shalt bid us; we will not make any man king; do thou that which is good in thine eyes.'
Un kas par to namu un pilsētu bija iecelts, un tie vecaji un uzraugi sūtīja pie Jeūs un sacīja: mēs esam tavi kalpi un darīsim visu, ko tu mums sacīsi, mēs nevienu necelsim par ķēniņu; dari tu, kas tev patīk.
6 Then he wrote a letter the second time to them, saying: 'If ye be on my side, and if ye will hearken unto my voice, take ye the heads of the men your master's sons, and come to me to Jezreel by to-morrow this time.' Now the king's sons, being seventy persons, were with the great men of the city, who brought them up.
Tad viņš tiem rakstīja citu grāmatu ar šiem vārdiem: ja jūs esat manā pusē un gribat klausīt manai balsij, tad ņemiet sava kunga dēlu galvas un nāciet pie manis rīt ap šo laiku uz Jezreēli. (Un to ķēniņa dēlu bija septiņdesmit vīri pie pilsētas lielkungiem, kas tos audzināja.)
7 And it came to pass, when the letter came to them, that they took the king's sons, and slew them, even seventy persons, and put their heads in baskets, and sent them unto him to Jezreel.
Kad nu šī grāmata pie tiem atnāca, tad tie ņēma tos ķēniņa dēlus un nokāva visus septiņdesmit un lika viņu galvas kurvjos un tās sūtīja uz Jezreēli.
8 And there came a messenger, and told him, saying: 'They have brought the heads of the king's sons.' And he said: 'Lay ye them in two heaps at the entrance of the gate until the morning.'
Un kad tas vēstnesis atnāca un viņam to stāstīja sacīdams: tie ir atnesuši ķēniņa dēlu galvas, tad viņš sacīja: lieciet tās divējās kopās pie vārtu durvīm līdz rītam.
9 And it came to pass in the morning, that he went out, and stood, and said to all the people: 'Ye are righteous; behold, I conspired against my master, and slew him; but who smote all these?
Un no rīta, kad viņš izgāja, tad viņš tur nostājās un sacīja uz visiem ļaudīm: jūs esat taisni, redzi, es esmu cēlis dumpi pret savu kungu un viņu nokāvis; kas tad šos visus ir kāvis?
10 Know now that there shall fall unto the earth nothing of the word of the LORD, which the LORD spoke concerning the house of Ahab; for the LORD hath done that which He spoke by His servant Elijah.'
Tāpēc atzīstiet, ka no Tā Kunga vārda nekas nav kritis zemē, ko Tas Kungs runājis pret Ahaba namu; jo Tas Kungs ir darījis, ko Viņš runājis caur savu kalpu Eliju.
11 So Jehu smote all that remained of the house of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his great men, and his familiar friends, and his priests, until there was left him none remaining.
Tad Jeūs arī visus apkāva, kas no Ahaba nama bija atlikušies Jezreēlē, arī visus viņa augstniekus un viņa pazīstamos un viņa svētītājus, kamēr tam neviena vairs neatlika.
12 And he arose and departed, and went to Samaria. And as he was at the shearing-house of the shepherds in the way,
Un viņš cēlās un gāja un nonāca Samarijā un bija ceļā vienā namā, kur gani dzīvoja.
13 Jehu met with the brethren of Ahaziah king of Judah, and said: 'Who are ye?' And they answered: 'We are the brethren of Ahaziah; and we go down to salute the children of the king and the children of the queen.'
Tad Jeūs atrada Ahazijas, Jūda ķēniņa, brāļus un uz tiem sacīja: kas jūs esat? Un tie sacīja: mēs esam Ahazijas brāļi un esam nākuši apmeklēt ķēniņa un ķēniņienes bērnus.
14 And he said: 'Take them alive.' And they took them alive, and slew them at the pit of the shearing-house, even two and forty men; neither left he any of them.
Tad viņš sacīja: grābiet tos dzīvus. Un tie tos sagrāba dzīvus un tos apkāva pie ganu nama akas, četrdesmit un divus vīrus, un neatlicināja no tiem neviena.
15 And when he was departed thence, he lighted on Jehonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him; and he saluted him, and said to him: 'Is thy heart right, as my heart is with thy heart?' And Jehonadab answered: 'It is.' 'If it be, said Jehu, give me thy hand.' And he gave him his hand; and he took him up to him into the chariot.
Un no turienes aizgājis viņš atrada Jonadabu, Rekaba dēlu, pretī nākam, un to apsveicināja un uz to sacīja: vai tava sirds taisna, kā mana sirds ar tavu sirdi? Un Jonadabs sacīja: ir gan. (Jeūs sacīja: ) Ja tā ir, tad dod man savu roku. Un viņš tam deva roku. Un viņš tam lika pie sevis kāpt ratos.
16 And he said: 'Come with me, and see my zeal for the LORD.' So they made him ride in his chariot.
Un viņš sacīja: nāc man līdz un skaties manu karstumu priekš Tā Kunga. Un viņš tam lika braukt savos ratos.
17 And when he came to Samaria, he smote all that remained unto Ahab in Samaria, till he had destroyed him, according to the word of the LORD, which He spoke to Elijah.
Tad viņš nonāca Samarijā un apkāva visus, kas Ahabam bija atlikuši Samarijā, tiekams viņš tos izdeldēja, pēc Tā Kunga vārda, ko tas caur Eliju bija runājis.
18 And Jehu gathered all the people together, and said unto them: 'Ahab served Baal a little; but Jehu will serve him much.
Un Jeūs sapulcināja visus ļaudis un uz tiem sacīja: Ahabs Baālam maz ir kalpojis, Jeūs viņam daudz vairāk kalpos.
19 Now therefore call unto me all the prophets of Baal, all his worshippers, and all his priests, let none be wanting; for I have a great sacrifice to do to Baal; whosoever shall be wanting, he shall not live.' But Jehu did it in subtlety, to the intent that he might destroy the worshippers of Baal.
Tāpēc aicinājiet visus Baāla praviešus, visus viņa kalpus un visus viņa svētītājus pie manis, ka neviens neatraujās, jo man Baālam jaupurē liels upuris. Nevienam, kas atraujās, nebūs palikt dzīvam. Bet Jeūs to darīja ar viltību, ka viņš nomaitātu visus Baāla kalpus.
20 And Jehu said: 'Sanctify a solemn assembly for Baal.' And they proclaimed it.
Un Jeūs sacīja: svētījiet Baālam svētkus, un tie tos izsauca.
21 And Jehu sent through all Israel; and all the worshippers of Baal came, so that there was not a man left that came not. And they came into the house of Baal; and the house of Baal was filled from one end to another.
Tad Jeūs sūtīja arī pa visu Israēli, un visi Baāla kalpi atnāca, un neviens neatrāvās, kas nebūtu nācis, un tie nāca Baāla namā, ka Baāla nams līdz galu galam bija pilns.
22 And he said unto him that was over the vestry: 'Bring forth vestments for all the worshippers of Baal.' And he brought them forth vestments.
Tad viņš sacīja uz tiem, kas bija iecelti pār to drēbju namu: atnesiet visiem Baāla kalpiem drēbes, un tie viņiem atnesa drēbes.
23 And Jehu went, and Jehonadab the son of Rechab, into the house of Baal; and he said unto the worshippers of Baal: 'Search, and look that there be here with you none of the servants of the LORD, but the worshippers of Baal only.'
Tad Jeūs ar Jonadabu, Rekaba dēlu, gāja Baāla namā, un viņš sacīja uz Baāla kalpiem: meklējiet un pieraugāt, ka jūsu starpā nav neviena no Tā Kunga kalpiem, bet Baāla kalpi vien.
24 And they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt-offerings. Now Jehu had appointed him fourscore men without, and said: 'If any of the men whom I bring into your hands escape, his life shall be for the life of him.'
Kad tie nu nāca upurēt kaujamos un dedzināmos upurus, tad Jeūs ārā nolika astoņdesmit vīrus un sacīja: ja kāds no tiem vīriem, ko es jums dodu rokā, izbēgs, tad jūsu dvēsele būs viņa dvēseles vietā.
25 And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt-offering, that Jehu said to the guard and to the captains: 'Go in, and slay them; let none come forth.' And they smote them with the edge of the sword; and the guard and the captains cast them out, and went to the city of the house of Baal.
Kad nu dedzināmais upuris bija pabeigts, tad Jeūs sacīja uz pils karavīriem un uz virsniekiem: ejat un kaujiet tos, ka neviens neizbēg. Un tie tos apkāva ar zobena asmeni, un tie pils karavīri un virsnieki tos nometa pie malas un gāja Baāla nama pilī.
26 And they brought forth the pillars that were in the house of Baal, and burned them.
Un tie iznesa Baāla nama uzceltos stabus un tos sadedzināja,
27 And they broke down the pillar of Baal, and broke down the house of Baal, and made it a draught-house, unto this day.
Un sadragāja Baāla uzcelto tēlu un salauzīja Baāla namu un to darīja par gānekļu vietu līdz šodienai.
28 Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel.
Tā Jeūs Baālu izdeldēja no Israēla.
29 Howbeit from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, wherewith he made Israel to sin, Jehu departed not from after them, the golden calves that were in Beth-el, and that were in Dan.
Bet no Jerobeama, Nebata dēla, grēkiem, kas Israēli bija pavedis uz grēkiem, Jeūs neatstājās, proti no tiem zelta teļiem Bētelē un Danā.
30 And the LORD said unto Jehu: 'Because thou hast done well in executing that which is right in Mine eyes, and hast done unto the house of Ahab according to all that was in My heart, thy sons of the fourth generation shall sit on the throne of Israel.'
Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Jeū: “Tāpēc ka tev labs prāts bijis darīt, kas Man patīk un Ahaba namam visu esi darījis, kas bija Manā sirdī, tad tavi dēli tev sēdēs Israēla krēslā līdz ceturtam augumam.”
31 But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the LORD, the God of Israel, with all his heart; he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam, wherewith he made Israel to sin.
Bet Jeūs nedzinās staigāt Tā Kunga, Israēla Dieva, bauslībā ar visu savu sirdi; viņš neatstājās no Jerobeama grēkiem, kas Israēli bija pavedis uz grēkiem.
32 In those days the LORD began to cut Israel short; and Hazael smote them in all the borders of Israel:
Tanī laikā Tas Kungs Israēli iesāka mazināt, jo Azaēls tos kāva visās Israēla robežās,
33 from the Jordan eastward, all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and the Manassites, from Aroer, which is by the valley of Arnon, even Gilead and Bashan.
No Jardānes puses pret rītiem visu Gileādas zemi, Gadiešus un Rūbeniešus un Manasiešus, no Aroēra pie Arnonas upes un Gileādu un Basanu.
34 Now the rest of the acts of Jehu, and all that he did, and all his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
Un kas vēl par Jeū stāstāms, un viss, ko viņš darījis, un viss viņa spēks, tas ir rakstīts Israēla ķēniņu laiku grāmatā.
35 And Jehu slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria. And Jehoahaz his son reigned in his stead.
Un Jeūs aizmiga saviem tēviem pakaļ un viņu apraka Samarijā, un viņa dēls Joakas palika par ķēniņu viņa vietā.
36 And the time that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was twenty and eight years.
Un tas laiks, kamēr Jeūs pār Israēli valdījis Samarijā, ir divdesmit un astoņi gadi.
