< Judges 17 >
1 And there is a man of the hill-country of Ephraim, and his name [is] Micah,
Un viens vīrs bija no Efraīma kalniem, tam vārds bija Miha.
2 and he says to his mother, “The eleven hundred pieces of silver which have been taken of yours, and [of which] you have sworn, and also spoken in my ears; behold, the silver [is] with me, I have taken it”; and his mother says, “Blessed [is] my son of YHWH.”
Tas sacīja uz savu māti: tie tūkstoš un simts sudraba gabali, kas tev ir atņemti, un kādēļ tu esi apzvērējusies un arī priekš manām ausīm to sacījusi; redzi, tā nauda ir pie manis, es to esmu ņēmis. Tad viņa māte sacīja: esi svētīts, mans dēls, no Tā Kunga!
3 And he gives back the eleven hundred pieces of silver to his mother, and his mother says, “I had certainly sanctified the silver to YHWH, from my hand, for my son, to make a carved image, and a molten image; and now, I give it back to you.”
Tad viņš savai mātei atdeva tos tūkstoš un simts sudraba gabalus, bet viņa māte sacīja: es svētīdama šo naudu Tam Kungam esmu svētījusi no savas rokas priekš sava dēla, lai taisa izgrieztu tēlu un lietu bildi; tad nu es tev to atdodu.
4 And he gives back the money to his mother, and his mother takes two hundred pieces of silver, and gives them to a refiner, and he makes them a carved image, and a molten image, and it is in the house of Micah.
Bet viņš savai mātei to naudu atdeva, un viņa māte ņēma divsimt sudraba gabalus un tos deva sudraba kalējam; tas no tā iztaisīja izgrieztu tēlu un lietu bildi. Un tie bija Mihas namā.
5 As for the man Micah, he has a house of gods, and he makes an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrates the hand of one of his sons, and he is for a priest to him;
Un tam vīram Miham bija dievanams, un viņš taisīja efodu un elku dievus un iesvētīja vienu no saviem dēliem, lai tas viņam būtu par priesteri.
6 in those days there is no king in Israel, each does that which is right in his own eyes.
Tanīs dienās ķēniņa nebija iekš Israēla; ikviens darīja, ko viņš domāja esam labu.
7 And there is a young man of Beth-Lehem-Judah, of the family of Judah, and he [is] a Levite, and he [is] a sojourner there.
Bet viens jauneklis bija no Jūda Bētlemes, no Jūda radiem; tas bija Levits un tur piemājoja.
8 And the man goes out of the city, out of Beth-Lehem-Judah, to sojourn where he finds, and comes to the hill-country of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, to work his way.
Un tas vīrs bija nogājis no pilsētas, no Jūda Bētlemes, piemist, kur vieta gadītos. Kad nu viņš nāca uz Efraīma kalniem uz Mihas namu, pa savu ceļu staigādams, tad Miha uz viņu sacīja: no kurienes tu nāci?
9 And Micah says to him, “Where do you come from?” And he says to him, “I [am] a Levite of Beth-Lehem-Judah, and I am going to sojourn where I find.”
Un viņš uz to sacīja: es esmu Levits no Jūdu Bētlemes un eju piemist, kur gadīsies.
10 And Micah says to him, “Dwell with me, and be for a father and for a priest to me, and I give ten pieces of silver to you for the days, and a suit of garments, and your sustenance”; and the Levite goes [in].
Tad Miha uz viņu sacīja: paliec pie manis un esi man par tēvu un priesteri, tad es tev par gadu došu desmit sudraba gabalus un tās vajadzīgās drēbes un uzturu. Un tas Levits (pie viņa) nogāja.
11 And the Levite is willing to dwell with the man, and the young man is to him as one of his sons.
Un tas Levits bija ar mieru pie tā vīra palikt, un tas jauneklis viņam bija kā viens no viņa dēliem.
12 And Micah consecrates the hand of the Levite, and the young man is for a priest to him, and he is in the house of Micah,
Un Miha to Levitu iesvētīja, lai tas jauneklis viņam būtu par priesteri, un tas bija Mihas namā.
13 and Micah says, “Now I have known that YHWH does good to me, for the Levite has been for a priest to me.”
Tad Miha sacīja: nu es zinu, ka Tas Kungs man labu darīs, tāpēc, ka man šis Levits par priesteri.
