1 Samuel 5
1 And the Philistines have taken the Ark of God, and bring it in from Eben-Ezer to Ashdod,
Un Fīlisti paņēma Dieva šķirstu un to noveda no Eben-Ecera uz Ašdodu.
2 and the Philistines take the Ark of God and bring it into the house of Dagon, and set it near Dagon.
Un Fīlisti paņēma Dieva šķirstu un to noveda Dagona namā un nolika Dagonam blakām.
3 And the Ashdodites rise early on the next day, and behold, Dagon is fallen on its face to the earth, before the Ark of YHWH; and they take Dagon, and put it back in its place.
Bet kad Ašdodas ļaudis otrā rītā agri cēlās, redzi, tad Dagons uz savu vaigu bija zemē nokritis Tā Kunga šķirsta priekšā, un tie ņēma Dagonu un to atkal uzcēla savā vietā.
4 And they rise early in the morning on the next day, and behold, Dagon is fallen on its face to the earth, before the Ark of YHWH, and the head of Dagon, and the two palms of its hands are cut off at the threshold, only Dagon’s [body] has been left of him;
Kad tie nu otrā rītā atkal agri cēlās, redzi, tad Dagons uz savu vaigu bija zemē nokritis Tā Kunga šķirsta priekšā, un Dagona galva un viņa abas rokas bija nolūzušas un gulēja uz sliekšņa, ka tas zivju tēls vien pie tā atlikās.
5 therefore the priests of Dagon, and all those coming into the house of Dagon, do not tread on the threshold of Dagon, in Ashdod, until this day.
Tādēļ Dagona priesteri un visi, kas iet Dagona namā, nemin uz Dagona slieksni Ašdodā līdz šai dienai.
6 And the hand of YHWH is heavy on the Ashdodites, and He makes them desolate, and strikes them with lumps, Ashdod and its borders.
Un Tā Kunga roka bija grūta pār Ašdodas ļaudīm un Viņš tos postīja un sita ar augoņiem, Ašdodu un viņas robežas.
7 And the men of Ashdod see that [it is] so, and have said, “The Ark of the God of Israel does not abide with us, for His hand has been hard on us, and on our god Dagon.”
Kad nu Ašdodas vīri redzēja, ka tas tā notika, tad tie sacīja: lai Israēla Dieva šķirsts pie mums nepaliek; jo Viņa roka ir grūta pār mums un pār mūsu dievu Dagonu.
8 And they send and gather all the princes of the Philistines to them, and say, “What do we do to the Ark of the God of Israel?” And they say, “Let the Ark of the God of Israel be brought around to Gath”; and they bring around the Ark of the God of Israel;
Tāpēc tie sūtīja un sapulcināja visus Fīlistu lielkungus un sacīja: ko darīsim ar Israēla Dieva šķirstu? Tad tie sacīja: lai Israēla Dieva šķirsts top nests uz Gatu. Tā tie aiznesa Israēla Dieva šķirstu.
9 and it comes to pass after they have brought it around, that the hand of YHWH is against the city—a very great destruction; and He strikes the men of the city, from small and to great; and lumps break forth on them.
Kad tie nu viņu bija aiznesuši, tad Tā Kunga roka pār to pilsētu nāca ar varen lielu iztrūcināšanu, jo Viņš sita tās pilsētas ļaudis, gan mazus gan lielus, un pie tiem izcēlās augoņi.
10 And they send the Ark of God to Ekron, and it comes to pass, at the coming in of the Ark of God to Ekron, that the Ekronites cry out, saying, “They have brought around the Ark of the God of Israel to us, to put us and our people to death.”
Tad tie Dieva šķirstu sūtīja uz Ekronu, un notikās, kad Dieva šķirsts uz Ekronu nāca, tad Ekrona brēca un sacīja: tie Israēla Dieva šķirstu pie manis atveduši, mani un manus ļaudis nokaut.
11 And they send and gather all the princes of the Philistines, and say, “Send the Ark of the God of Israel away, and it turns back to its place, and it does not put us and our people to death”; for there has been a deadly destruction throughout all the city, the hand of God has been very heavy there,
Un tie sūtīja un sapulcināja visus Fīlistu lielkungus un sacīja: sūtat Israēla Dieva šķirstu projām, lai tas tiek atpakaļ savā vietā un nenokauj mani un manus ļaudis. Jo nāves bailes bija ikkatrā pilsētā, un Dieva roka tur bija ļoti grūta.
12 and the men who have not died have been struck with lumps, and the cry of the city goes up into the heavens.
Un tie ļaudis, kas nenomira, tapa sisti ar augoņiem, tā ka tās pilsētas kliegšana cēlās pret debesīm.
