< Kings II 24 >
1 And the Lord caused his anger to burn forth again in Israel, and [Satan] stirred up David against them, saying, Go, number Israel and Juda.
Un Tā Kunga dusmas atkal iedegās pret Israēli, un viņš Dāvidu skubināja pret tiem sacīdams: ej, skaiti Israēli un Jūdu.
2 And the king said to Joab commander of the host, who was with him, Go now through all the tribes of Israel and Juda, from Dan even to Bersabee, and number the people, and I will know the number of the people.
Un ķēniņš sacīja uz Joabu, karapulku virsnieku, kas pie viņa bija: ej jel apkārt pa visām Israēla ciltīm, no Dana līdz Bēršebai, un skaitāt tos ļaudis, lai es zinu to ļaužu skaitu. Tad Joabs sacīja uz ķēniņu:
3 And Joab said to the king, Now may the Lord add to the people a hundred-fold as many as they are, and [may] the eyes of my lord the king see it: but why does my lord the king desire this thing?
Lai Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, pie šiem ļaudīm simtkārt vairāk pieliek, nekā viņu ir, ka mana kunga, tā ķēniņa, acis to redz; kāpēc tad manam kungam, tam ķēniņam, šīs lietas gribās?
4 Nevertheless the word of the king prevailed against Joab an the captains of the host: And Joab and the captains of the host went out before the king to number the people of Israel.
Bet ķēniņa vārds palika spēkā pret Joabu un tiem karavirsniekiem. Tā Joabs ar tiem karavirsniekiem izgāja no ķēniņa, Israēla ļaudis skaitīt.
5 And they went over Jordan, and encamped in Aroer, on the right of the city which is in the midst of the valley of Gad and Eliezer.
Un tie gāja pār Jardāni un apmetās pie Aroēra, pa labo roku tai pilsētai, kas Gada ielejas vidū, un pie Jaēzeres.
6 And they came to Galaad, and into the land of Thabason, which is Adasai, and they came to Danidan and Udan, and compassed Sidon.
Pēc tie nāca uz Gileādu un uz to ielejas zemi Tahtim Hodši, tie nāca arī uz DanJaānu un apkārt uz Sidonu.
7 And they came to Mapsar of Tyre, and to all the cities of the Evite and the Chananite: and they came by the South of Juda to Bersabee.
Un tie nāca uz to stipro Tirus pilsētu un uz visām Hiviešu un Kanaāniešu pilsētām, un tie iznāca ārā Jūdam pret dienasvidu uz Bēršebu.
8 And they compassed the whole land; and they arrived at Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.
Tā tie gāja apkārt pa visu zemi un pārnāca pēc deviņiem mēnešiem un divdesmit dienām uz Jeruzālemi.
9 And Joab gave in the number of the census of the people to the king: and Israel consisted of eight hundred thousand men of might that drew sword; and the men of Juda, five hundred thousand fighting men.
Un Joabs deva ķēniņam to uzrakstīto ļaužu skaitu, un iekš Israēla bija astoņsimt tūkstoš karavīru, kas bija zobena vilcēji, un Jūda vīru bija piecsimt tūkstoši.
10 And the heart of David struck him after he had numbered the people; and David said to the Lord, I have sinned grievously, O Lord, [in] what I have now done: remove, I pray you, the iniquity of your servant, for I have been exceedingly foolish.
Tad Dāvidam sirds trīcēja, kad tos ļaudis bija skaitījis. Un Dāvids sacīja uz To Kungu: es esmu ļoti grēkojis ar to, ko esmu darījis, un nu Kungs, atņem lūdzams sava kalpa noziegumu, jo es esmu ļoti aplam darījis.
11 And David rose early in the morning, and the word of the Lord came to the prophet Gad, the seer, saying, Go, and speak to David, saying,
Kad nu Dāvids rītā cēlās, tad Tā Kunga vārds notika uz pravieti Gadu, Dāvida redzētāju, tā:
12 Thus says the Lord, I bring [one of] three things upon you: now choose you one of them, and I will do [it] to you.
Ej un runā uz Dāvidu: tā saka Tas Kungs: trīs lietas es tev lieku priekšā, izvēlies vienu no tām, ko lai es tev daru.
13 And Gad went in to David, and told him, and said to him, Choose [one of these things] to befall you, whether there shall come upon you [for] three years famine in your land; or that you should flee three months before your enemies, and they should pursue you; or that there should be [for] three days mortality in your land. Now then decide, and see what answer I shall return to him that sent me.
Un Gads nāca pie Dāvida un teica viņam un uz to sacīja: vai tu gribi septiņus gadus bada laiku savā zemē, jeb vai tu gribi trīs mēnešus bēgt no saviem ienaidniekiem, kas tevi vajās, jeb vai tu gribi, ka trīs dienas tavā zemē nāk mēris? Ņem nu vērā un redzi, ko lai es tam atsaku, kas mani sūtījis.
14 And David said to Gad, On every side I am much straitened: let me fall now into the hands of the Lord, for his compassions [are] very many; and let me not fall into the hands of man.
Tad Dāvids sacīja uz Gadu: man ir ļoti bail. Es kritīšu labāk Tā Kunga rokā, jo Viņa žēlastība ir liela, bet cilvēku rokā es negribu krist.
15 So David chose for himself the mortality: and [they were] the days of wheat harvest; and the Lord sent a pestilence upon Israel from morning till noon, and the plague began among the people; and there died of the people from Dan even to Bersabee seventy thousand men.
Tad Tas Kungs lika mērim nākt iekš Israēla, no rīta līdz tam nospriestam laikam, un ļaužu nomira no Dana līdz Bēršebai septiņdesmit tūkstoši.
16 And the angel of the Lord stretched out his hand against Jerusalem to destroy it, and the Lord repented of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed the people, [It is] enough now, withhold your hand. And the angel of the Lord was by the threshing floor of Orna the Jebusite.
Un kad tas eņģelis savu roku pār Jeruzālemi izstiepa, lai to nomaitātu, tad Tam Kungam tā ļaunuma bija žēl, un Viņš sacīja uz to eņģeli, kas tos ļaudis nonāvēja: ir gan, atrauj savu roku. Un Tā Kunga eņģelis stāvēja pie Aravnus, tā Jebusieša, klona.
17 And David spoke to the Lord when he saw the angel striking the people, and he said, Behold, it is I that have done wrong, but these sheep what have they done? Let your hand, I pray you, be upon me, and upon my father's house.
Un Dāvids sacīja uz To Kungu, to eņģeli redzēdams, kas tos ļaudis sita: redzi, es esmu grēkojis un noziedzies, bet ko šīs avis darījušas? Lai Tava roka ir pret mani un pret mana tēva namu.
18 And Gad came to David in that day, and said to him, Go up, and set up to the Lord and altar in the threshing floor of Orna the Jebusite.
Tad Gads nāca tai dienā pie Dāvida un uz to sacīja: ej uz augšu un uztaisi Tam Kungam altāri uz Aravnus, tā Jebusieša, klona.
19 And David went up according to the word of Gad, as the Lord commanded him.
Tad Dāvids gāja pēc Gada vārda, kā Tas Kungs bija pavēlējis.
20 And Orna looked out, and saw the king and his servants coming on before him: and Orna went forth, and did obeisance to the king with his face to the earth.
Un Aravnus skatījās un redzēja pie sevis nākam ķēniņu un viņa kalpus, un Aravnus izgāja un nometās ķēniņa priekšā uz savu vaigu pie zemes.
21 And Orna said, Why has my lord the king come to his servant? and David said, To buy of you the threshing floor, in order to build an altar to the Lord that the plague may be restrained from off the people.
Un Aravnus sacīja: kāpēc mans kungs, tas ķēniņš, nāk pie sava kalpa? Un Dāvids sacīja: šo klonu no tevis pirkt, ka es Tam Kungam taisu altāri, lai šī mocība no ļaudīm atstājās.
22 And Orna said to David, Let my lord the king take and offer to the Lord that which is good in his eyes: behold, [here are] oxen for a whole burnt offering, and the wheels and furniture of the oxen for wood.
Tad Aravnus sacīja uz Dāvidu: lai mans kungs, tas ķēniņš, ņem un upurē, kā viņam patīk. Redzi, še ir vērši par dedzināmo upuri un kuļami rati un vēršu jūgi malkai.
23 Orna gave all to the king: and Orna said to the king, The Lord your God bless you.
Šo visu, ķēniņ, Aravnus dod ķēniņam. Un Aravnus sacīja uz ķēniņu: lai Tam Kungam, tavam Dievam, ir labs prāts uz tevi.
24 And the king said to Orna, Nay, but I will surely buy it of you at a fair price, and I will not offer to the Lord my God a whole burnt offering for nothing. So David purchased the threshing floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.
Bet ķēniņš sacīja uz Aravnu: nē, bet es pirkdams to tev nopirkšu, jo es negribu Tam Kungam, savam Dievam, dedzināmos upurus velti upurēt. Tā Dāvids to klonu un tos vēršus nopirka par piecdesmit sudraba sēķeļiem.
25 And David built there an altar to the Lord, and offered up whole burnt offerings and peace-offerings: and Solomon made an addition to the altar afterwards, for it was little at first. And the Lord listened to the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel.
Un Dāvids uztaisīja tur Tam Kungam altāri un upurēja dedzināmos upurus un pateicības upurus. Tā Tas Kungs tai zemei tapa salīdzināts, un tā mocība atstājās no Israēla.
