< 2 Chronicles 20 >
1 It came to pass after this also, that the children of Moab, and the children of Ammon, and with them other beside the Ammonites, came against Jehoshaphat to battle.
Un pēc tam notika, ka Moaba bērni un Amona bērni, un līdz ar tiem kādi no tiem Meunim nāca, karot pret Jehošafatu.
2 Then there came some that told Jehoshaphat, saying, There cometh a great multitude against thee from beyond the sea on this side Syria; and, behold, they be in Hazazon–tamar, which is En–gedi.
Un vēstneši nāca un sacīja Jehošafatam: liels pulks nāk pret tevi no viņpus jūras, no Sīrijas, un redzi, tie ir AceconaTamarā, tas ir Enģedos.
3 And Jehoshaphat feared, and set himself to seek Yhwh, and proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah.
Tad Jehošafats izbijās un grieza savu vaigu, To Kungu meklēt, un izsauca gavēni pa visu Jūdu.
4 And Judah gathered themselves together, to ask help of Yhwh: even out of all the cities of Judah they came to seek Yhwh.
Un Jūda ļaudis sapulcinājās, meklēt no Tā Kunga palīgu, un no visām Jūda pilsētām tie nāca, To Kungu meklēt.
5 And Jehoshaphat stood in the congregation of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of Yhwh, before the new court,
Un Jehošafats stāvēja Jūda un Jeruzālemes draudzes vidū Tā Kunga namā priekš tā jaunā pagalma
6 And said, O Yhwh God of our fathers, art not thou God in heaven? and rulest not thou over all the kingdoms of the heathen? and in thine hand is there not power and might, so that none is able to withstand thee?
Un sacīja: Kungs mūsu tēvu Dievs! Vai Tu neesi Dievs debesīs un valdītājs visu ļaužu valstīs? Un Tavā rokā ir spēks un vara, ka neviens pret Tevi nevar celties!
7 Art not thou our God, who didst drive out the inhabitants of this land before thy people Israel, and gavest it to the seed of Abraham thy friend for ever?
Vai Tu, mūsu Dievs, šās zemes iedzīvotājus neesi izdzinis Savu Israēla ļaužu priekšā, un vai to neesi devis Ābrahāma, Sava mīļā, dzimumam uz mūžīgiem laikiem?
8 And they dwelt therein, and have built thee a sanctuary therein for thy name, saying,
Un tie tur dzīvojuši un Tev tur taisījuši svētu vietu Tavam vārdam, sacīdami:
9 If, when evil cometh upon us, as the sword, judgment, or pestilence, or famine, we stand before this house, and in thy presence, ( for thy name is in this house, ) and cry unto thee in our affliction, then thou wilt hear and help.
Kad pār mums nāk nelaime, zobens, sodība, mēris un bads, tad mēs stāvēsim priekš šī nama un priekš Tava vaiga, tāpēc ka Tavs vārds ir šinī namā, un kad Tevi piesauksim savās bēdās, tad Tu paklausīsi un izpestīsi.
10 And now, behold, the children of Ammon and Moab and mount Seir, whom thou wouldest not let Israel invade, when they came out of the land of Egypt, but they turned from them, and destroyed them not;
Un nu, redzi, Amona bērni un Moabs un tie no Seīra kalniem, kur Tu Israēlim neļāvi iet cauri, kad tie nāca no Ēģiptes zemes, bet tie no tiem atstājās un tos neizdeldēja, -
11 Behold, I say, how they reward us, to come to cast us out of thy possession, which thou hast given us to inherit.
Redzi nu, tie mums to atmaksā, nākdami, mūs izdzīt no mūsu zemes, ko Tu mums licis iemantot.
12 O our God, wilt thou not judge them? for we have no might against this great company that cometh against us; neither know we what to do: but our eyes are upon thee.
Ak mūsu Dievs! Vai Tu nenesīsi tiesu pret viņiem? Jo mums nav spēka pret šo lielo pulku, kas pret mums nāk, un mēs nezinām, ko būs darīt, bet mūsu acis griežas uz Tevi.
13 And all Judah stood before Yhwh, with their little ones, their wives, and their children.
Un visa Jūda valsts stāvēja Tā Kunga priekšā, arī viņu bērni, viņu sievas un viņu dēli.
14 Then upon Jahaziel the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, a Levite of the sons of Asaph, came the Spirit of Yhwh in the midst of the congregation;
Tad Tā Kunga Gars nāca draudzes vidū pār Jeaziēli, Zakarijas dēlu, tas bija Benajas, tas Jeiēļa, tas Levita Matanijas dēls, no Asafa bērniem.
15 And he said, Hearken ye, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and thou king Jehoshaphat, Thus saith Yhwh unto you, Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God’s.
Un tas sacīja: klausāties, visa Jūda valsts un Jeruzālemes iedzīvotāji, un ķēniņ Jehošafat, - tā saka Tas Kungs uz jums: nebīstaties un neizbaiļojaties priekš šā lielā pulka, jo tas karš nepieder jums, bet Dievam.
16 To morrow go ye down against them: behold, they come up by the cliff of Ziz; and ye shall find them at the end of the brook, before the wilderness of Jeruel.
Ejat rītu tiem pretī, redzi, tie nāks augšā pa Cic kalnu, un jūs tos sastapsiet ielejas galā šaipus Jeruēles tuksneša.
17 Ye shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of Yhwh with you, O Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, nor be dismayed; to morrow go out against them: for Yhwh will be with you.
Šinī kaujā jums nebūs jākaujas, ejat tikai klāt, stāviet un redziet Tā Kunga pestīšanu, kas ir ar jums. Jūda un Jeruzāleme, nebīstaties un neizbaiļojaties, izejat rītu viņiem pretī, jo Tas Kungs būs ar jums.
18 And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell before Yhwh, worshipping Yhwh.
Tad Jehošafats locījās ar savu vaigu pie zemes, un visi Jūda un Jeruzālemes iedzīvotāji metās pie zemes priekš Tā Kunga un pielūdza To Kungu.
19 And the Levites, of the children of the Kohathites, and of the children of the Korhites, stood up to praise Yhwh God of Israel with a loud voice on high.
Un tie Leviti no Kehāta bērniem un no Koraha bērniem cēlās, augsti slavēt To Kungu, Israēla Dievu ar skanīgu balsi,
20 And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; Believe in Yhwh your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper.
Un tie cēlās it agri un izgāja uz Tekoas tuksnesi, un tiem izejot Jehošafats stāvēja un sacīja: klausiet mani, Jūda un Jeruzālemes iedzīvotāji, ticiet uz To Kungu, savu Dievu, tad jūs pastāvēsiet; ticiet Viņa praviešiem, tad jums labi izdosies.
21 And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto Yhwh, and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army, and to say, Praise Yhwh; for his mercy endureth for ever.
Un viņš sarunājās ar tiem ļaudīm un iecēla dziedātājus priekš Tā Kunga, ka tie svētā glītumā slavētu, apbruņoto priekšā iedami un sacīdami: teiciet To Kungu, jo Viņa žēlastība paliek mūžīgi!
22 And when they began to sing and to praise, Yhwh set ambushments against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, which were come against Judah; and they were smitten.
Un to brīdi, kad tie sāka dziedāt tās priecīgās un teicamās dziesmas, tad Tas Kungs sūtīja glūnētājus pret Amona bērniem, Moabu un tiem no Seīra kalniem, kas bija nākuši uz Jūdu, un tie tika sakauti.
23 For the children of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, utterly to slay and destroy them: and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, every one helped to destroy another.
Jo Amona bērni un Moabs cēlās pret Seīra kalnu iedzīvotājiem un tos izdeldēja un nomaitāja, un kad tie visus Seīra iedzīvotājus bija nokāvuši, tad tie palīdzēja nomaitāt cits citu.
24 And when Judah came toward the watch tower in the wilderness, they looked unto the multitude, and, behold, they were dead bodies fallen to the earth, and none escaped.
Un Jūda nāca kalna galā pie tuksneša un griezās pret tiem pulkiem, un redzi, tur bija miroņi, kas zemē gulēja, un neviens nebija izbēdzis.
25 And when Jehoshaphat and his people came to take away the spoil of them, they found among them in abundance both riches with the dead bodies, and precious jewels, which they stripped off for themselves, more than they could carry away: and they were three days in gathering of the spoil, it was so much.
Tad Jehošafats un viņa ļaudis nāca un tos aplaupīja un atrada pie tiem ļoti daudz mantas un drēbes un dārgus rīkus, un paņēma tik daudz, ka nevarēja panest, un tie laupīja laupījumu trīs dienas, jo tur bija ļoti daudz.
26 And on the fourth day they assembled themselves in the valley of Berachah; for there they blessed Yhwh: therefore the name of the same place was called, The valley of Berachah, unto this day.
Un ceturtā dienā tie sapulcējās teikšanas ielejā, jo tur tie teica To Kungu, tāpēc tie tās vietas vārdu nosauca Teikšanas ieleja līdz šai dienai.
27 Then they returned, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, and Jehoshaphat in the forefront of them, to go again to Jerusalem with joy; for Yhwh had made them to rejoice over their enemies.
Pēc tam visi vīri no Jūda un Jeruzālemes griezās atpakaļ, un Jehošafats viņu priekšā, un gāja uz Jeruzālemi ar prieku; jo Tas Kungs viņus bija darījis priecīgus par viņu ienaidniekiem.
28 And they came to Jerusalem with psalteries and harps and trumpets unto the house of Yhwh.
Un tie nonāca Jeruzālemē ar somastabulēm un koklēm un trumetēm uz Tā Kunga namu.
29 And the fear of God was on all the kingdoms of those countries, when they had heard that Yhwh fought against the enemies of Israel.
Un bailes no Dieva nāca pār visām zemes valstīm, kad dzirdēja, ka Tas Kungs bija karojis pret Israēla ienaidniekiem.
30 So the realm of Jehoshaphat was quiet: for his God gave him rest round about.
Un Jehošafata valsts bija mierā, un viņa Dievs tam deva mieru visapkārt.
31 And Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah: he was thirty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned twenty and five years in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.
Un Jehošafats valdīja pār Jūdu; viņš bija trīsdesmit piecus gadus vecs, kad tas palika par ķēniņu, un valdīja divdesmit piecus gadus Jeruzālemē, un viņa mātei bija vārds Azuba, Šilkus meita.
32 And he walked in the way of Asa his father, and departed not from it, doing that which was right in the sight of Yhwh.
Un viņš staigāja sava tēva Asas ceļos un neatstājās no tiem, darīdams, kas Tam Kungam patika.
33 Howbeit the high places were not taken away: for as yet the people had not prepared their hearts unto the God of their fathers.
Taču kalnu altāri netapa nopostīti, un vēl tie ļaudis ar savu sirdi pilnīgi neturējās pie savu tēvu Dieva.
34 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of Jehu the son of Hanani, who is mentioned in the book of the kings of Israel.
Un kas vēl par Jehošafatu stāstāms, par viņa pirmām un pēdējām dienām, redzi, tas rakstīts Jeūs, Anana dēla, stāstos, ko viņš sarakstījis Israēla ķēniņu grāmatā.
35 And after this did Jehoshaphat king of Judah join himself with Ahaziah king of Israel, who did very wickedly:
Un pēc tam Jehošafats, Jūda ķēniņš, sabiedrojās ar Ahaziju, Israēla ķēniņu; tas bija bezdievīgs savos darbos.
36 And he joined himself with him to make ships to go to Tarshish: and they made the ships in Ezion–geber.
Un viņš ar to vienojās, kuģus taisīt, ar ko braukt uz Taršišu, un tie taisīja kuģus EceonĢeberā.
37 Then Eliezer the son of Dodavah of Mareshah prophesied against Jehoshaphat, saying, Because thou hast joined thyself with Ahaziah, Yhwh hath broken thy works. And the ships were broken, that they were not able to go to Tarshish.
Bet Eliēzers, Dodava dēls, no Marezas, sludināja pret Jehošafatu sacīdams: tādēļ ka tu ar Ahaziju esi sabiedrojies, Tas Kungs salauzīs tavu darbu. Un tie kuģi tika sadragāti un nevarēja tikt uz Taršišu.
