< 1 Samuel 12 >
1 And Samuel said unto all Israel, Behold, I have hearkened unto your voice in all that all of you said unto me, and have made a king over you.
Tad Samuēls sacīja uz visu Israēli: redzi, es jūsu balsij esmu paklausījis iekš visa, ko jūs man esat sacījuši, un esmu jums cēlis ķēniņu.
2 And now, behold, the king walks before you: and I am old and grayheaded; and, behold, my sons are with you: and I have walked before you from my childhood unto this day.
Un nu redzi, te jūsu ķēniņš jūsu priekšā staigā, un es esmu vecs un sirms palicis, un mani dēli ir pie jums, un es esmu jūsu priekšā staigājis no savas jaunības līdz šai dienai.
3 Behold, here I am: witness against me before the LORD, and before his anointed: whose ox have I taken? or whose ass have I taken? or whom have I defrauded? whom have I oppressed? or of whose hand have I received any bribe to blind mine eyes therewith? and I will restore it you.
Redzi, še es esmu, atbildiet pret mani Tā Kunga priekšā un viņa svaidītā priekšā: kura vērsi es esmu ņēmis un kuram es ēzeli ņēmis? Kuram es varas darbu darījis, kuru es spaidījis un no kura rokas es dāvanas ņēmis, ka es savas acis tādēļ būtu aizdarījis? Tad es jums to atdošu.
4 And they said, You have not defrauded us, nor oppressed us, neither have you taken ought of any man's hand.
Un tie sacīja: tu mums netaisnību neesi darījis nedz mūs spaidījis, un nekā neesi ņēmis no neviena rokas.
5 And he said unto them, The LORD is witness against you, and his anointed is witness this day, that all of you have not found ought in my hand. And they answered, He is witness.
Tad viņš uz tiem sacīja: lai Tas Kungs ir liecinieks pret jums, un Viņa svaidītais lai ir šodien liecinieks, ka jūs manā rokā nekā neesat atraduši. Un tie sacīja: lai ir liecinieks.
6 And Samuel said unto the people, It is the LORD that advanced Moses and Aaron, and that brought your fathers up out of the land of Egypt.
Un Samuēls sacīja uz tiem ļaudīm: (lai ir liecinieks) Tas Kungs, kas Mozu un Āronu ir cēlis un kas jūsu tēvus no Ēģiptes zemes izvedis.
7 Now therefore stand still, that I may reason with you before the LORD of all the righteous acts of the LORD, which he did to you and to your fathers.
Un nu stājaties šeitan, ka es ar jums tiesājos Tā Kunga priekšā par visām Tā Kunga labdarīšanām, ko Viņš jums un jūsu tēviem darījis.
8 When Jacob was come into Egypt, and your fathers cried unto the LORD, then the LORD sent Moses and Aaron, which brought forth your fathers out of Egypt, and made them dwell in this place.
Kad Jēkabs Ēģiptes zemē bija nācis, un jūsu tēvi uz To Kungu brēca, tad Tas Kungs sūtīja Mozu un Āronu, un tie vadīja jūsu tēvus no Ēģiptes un lika tiem šai vietā dzīvot.
9 And when they forgotten about the LORD their God, he sold them into the hand of Sisera, captain of the host of Hazor, and into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the king of Moab, and they fought against them.
Bet tie aizmirsa To Kungu, savu Dievu; tāpēc Viņš tos pārdeva Siserus, Hacoras kara kunga, rokā un Fīlistu rokā un Moaba ķēniņa rokā, un šie karoja pret viņiem.
10 And they cried unto the LORD, and said, We have sinned, because we have forsaken the LORD, and have served Baalim and Ashtaroth: but now deliver us out of the hand of our enemies, and we will serve you.
Tad tie brēca uz To Kungu un sacīja: mēs esam grēkojuši, jo mēs To Kungu esam atstājuši un kalpojuši Baālam un Astartēm. Un nu izpestī mūs no mūsu ienaidnieku rokas, tad mēs Tev gribam kalpot.
11 And the LORD sent Jerubbaal, and Bedan, and Jephthah, and Samuel, and delivered you out of the hand of your enemies on every side, and all of you dwelled safe.
Tad Tas Kungs sūtīja Jerub-Baālu un Bedanu un Jeftu un Samuēli, un jūs izglāba no jūsu ienaidnieku rokas visapkārt, tā ka jūs mierā dzīvojat.
12 And when all of you saw that Nahash the king of the children of Ammon came against you, all of you said unto me, Nay; but a king shall reign over us: when the LORD your God was your king.
Kad nu jūs redzējāt, ka Naās, Amona bērnu ķēniņš, pret jums nāca, tad jūs uz mani sacījāt: nē, bet ķēniņam būs pār mums valdīt! Un tomēr Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, bija jūsu ķēniņš.
13 Now therefore behold the king whom all of you have chosen, and whom all of you have desired! and, behold, the LORD has set a king over you.
Un nu redzi, te ir tas ķēniņš, ko jūs esat izvēlējušies, ko jūs esat prasījuši, un redzi, Tas Kungs ir cēlis ķēniņu pār jums.
14 If all of you will fear the LORD, and serve him, and obey his voice, and not rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then shall both all of you and also the king that reigns over you continue following the LORD your God:
Ja tik jūs To Kungu bīsities un Viņam kalposiet un Viņa balsij klausīsiet un Tā Kunga mutei pretī neturēsities un pakaļ staigāsiet Tam Kungam, savam Dievam, gan jūs, gan tas ķēniņš, kas pār jums valda.
15 But if all of you will not obey the voice of the LORD, but rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then shall the hand of the LORD be against you, as it was against your fathers.
Bet ja jūs Tā Kunga balsij neklausīsiet un Tā Kunga mutei pretī turēsities, tad Tā Kunga roka būs pret jums, kā pret jūsu tēviem.
16 Now therefore stand and see this great thing, which the LORD will do before your eyes.
Nostājaties tagad šeitan un redziet šo lielo lietu, ko Tas Kungs priekš jūsu acīm darīs.
17 Is it not wheat harvest to day? I will call unto the LORD, and he shall send thunder and rain; that all of you may perceive and see that your wickedness is great, which all of you have done in the sight of the LORD, in asking you a king.
Vai tagad nav kviešu pļaujamais laiks? Es piesaukšu To Kungu, un tas dos pērkonus un lietu, lai jūs atzīstat un redzat, ka tas ļaunums liels, ko jūs esat darījuši priekš Tā Kunga acīm, ķēniņu sev lūgdami.
18 So Samuel called unto the LORD; and the LORD sent thunder and rain that day: and all the people greatly feared the LORD and Samuel.
Kad nu Samuēls To Kungu piesauca, tad Tas Kungs deva pērkonus un lietu tai pašā dienā; un visi ļaudis To Kungu un Samuēli ļoti bijās.
19 And all the people said unto Samuel, Pray for your servants unto the LORD your God, that we die not: for we have added unto all our sins this evil, to ask us a king.
Un visi ļaudis sacīja uz Samuēli: lūdz par saviem kalpiem To Kungu, savu Dievu, ka mēs nemirstam. Pie visiem saviem grēkiem mēs arī to grēku esam darījuši, ka sev ķēniņu esam lūguši.
20 And Samuel said unto the people, Fear not: all of you have done all this wickedness: yet turn not aside from following the LORD, but serve the LORD with all your heart;
Tad Samuēls sacīja uz tiem ļaudīm: nebīstaties! Jūs gan visu šo grēku esat darījuši, tomēr neatkāpjaties no Tā Kunga, bet kalpojiet Tam Kungam ar visu savu sirdi.
21 And turn all of you not aside: for then should all of you go after vain things, which cannot profit nor deliver; for they are vain.
Un neatkāpjaties, ka nedzenaties nelietībai pakaļ, tiem, kas nedz palīdz nedz izglābj jo tie ir nelietība.
22 For the LORD will not forsake his people for his great name's sake: because it has pleased the LORD to make you his people.
Jo Tas Kungs neatstums Savus ļaudis Sava lielā Vārda dēļ; jo Tam Kungam ir paticis jūs darīt Sev par ļaudīm.
23 Moreover as for me, God forbid that I should sin against the LORD in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way:
Arī es ne mūžam tā pret To Kungu neapgrēkošos, ka es mitētos par jums lūgt un jums mācīt to labo un taisno ceļu.
24 Only fear the LORD, and serve him in truth with all your heart: for consider how great things he has done for you.
Bīstaties tikai To Kungu un kalpojiet Viņam uzticīgi no visas savas sirds, jo jūs esat redzējuši, kādas lielas lietas Viņš pie jums ir darījis.
25 But if all of you shall still do wickedly, all of you shall be consumed, both all of you and your king.
Bet ja jūs ļaunumu darīsiet, tad gan jūs, gan jūsu ķēniņš iesiet bojā.
