Judges 6
1 And the sons of Israel do evil in the eyes of YHWH, and YHWH gives them into the hand of Midian [for] seven years,
Un Israēla bērni darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika. Tad Tas Kungs tos nodeva Midijaniešu rokā septiņus gadus.
2 and the hand of Midian is strong against Israel, [so] the sons of Israel have made for themselves the nooks which [are] in the mountains, and the caves, and the strongholds [to hide] from the presence of Midian.
Kad nu Midijaniešu roka palika stipra pret Israēli, tad Israēla bērni sev taisīja alas kalnos un bedres un stipras pilis Midijaniešu dēļ.
3 And it has been, if Israel has sowed, that Midian has come up, and Amalek, and the sons of the east, indeed, they have come up against him,
Jo kad Israēls bija sējis, tad nāca Midijanieši un Amalekieši un austruma ļaudis un cēlās pret tiem.
4 and encamp against them, and destroy the increase of the land until your entering Gaza; and they leave no sustenance in Israel, either sheep, or ox, or donkey;
Un apmetās pret tiem un postīja zemes druvas līdz Gacai; tie neatlicināja pārtikas iekš Israēla, nedz sīku lopu nedz vēršu nedz ēzeļu.
5 for they and their livestock come up, with their tents; they come in as the fullness of the locust for multitude, and of them and of their livestock there is no number, and they come into the land to destroy it.
Jo tie atnāca ar saviem ganāmiem pulkiem un ar savām teltīm, tie nāca tā kā siseņu pulks, ka tos ar viņu kamieļiem nevarēja skaitīt, un tie nāca, zemi postīt.
6 And Israel is very weak from the presence of Midian, and the sons of Israel cry to YHWH.
Un Israēls ļoti panīka caur Midijaniešiem. Tad Israēla bērni brēca uz To Kungu.
7 And it comes to pass, when the sons of Israel have cried to YHWH concerning Midian,
Un notikās, kad Israēla bērni Midijana dēļ uz To Kungu brēca,
8 that YHWH sends a man, a prophet, to the sons of Israel, and he says to them, “Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: I have brought you up out of Egypt, and I bring you out from a house of servants,
Tad Tas Kungs sūtīja pravieti pie Israēla bērniem; tas uz viņiem sacīja: tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs: Es jūs esmu izvedis no Ēģiptes un jūs izvedis no vergu nama
9 and I deliver you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all your oppressors, and I cast them out from your presence, and I give their land to you,
Un jūs izglābis no ēģiptiešu rokas un no visu rokas, kas jūs spieda, un Es tos jūsu priekšā izdzinis un jums devis viņu zemi.
10 and I say to you, I [am] your God YHWH, you do not fear the gods of the Amorite in whose land you are dwelling—and you have not listened to My voice.”
Un Es uz jums sacīju: Es esmu Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, nebīstaties Amoriešu dievus, kuru zemē jūs dzīvojat. Bet jūs neesat klausījuši Manai balsij.
11 And the Messenger of YHWH comes and sits under the oak which [is] in Ophrah, which [is] to Joash the Abi-Ezrite, and his son Gideon is beating out wheat in the winepress, to remove [it] from the presence of the Midianites;
Un Tā Kunga eņģelis nāca un apsēdās apakš tā ozola Ovrā, kas piederēja Joasam, no Abiēzera nama, un viņu dēls Gideons kūla kviešus vīna spaidā, lai tos paslēptu no Midijaniešiem.
12 and the Messenger of YHWH appears to him and says to him, “YHWH [is] with you, O mighty man of valor.”
Un Tā Kunga eņģelis tam parādījās un uz to sacīja: Tas Kungs ar tevi, tu stiprais varenais vīrs!
13 And Gideon says to Him, “O my Lord, [if] YHWH is indeed with us, then why has all this found us? And where [are] all His wonders which our fathers recounted to us, saying, Has YHWH not brought us up out of Egypt? And now YHWH has left us, and gives us into the hand of Midian.”
Bet Gideons uz viņu sacīja: mans Kungs, kad Tas Kungs ir ar mums, kāpēc tad visas šīs bēdas mums uznākušas? Un kur ir visi viņa brīnumi, ko mums mūsu tēvi teikuši, sacīdami: vai Tas Kungs mūs nav izvedis no Ēģiptes? Bet nu Tas Kungs mūs atstājis un nodevis Midijaniešu rokā.
14 And YHWH turns to him and says, “Go in this—your power; and you have saved Israel out of the hand of Midian—have I not sent you?”
Tad Tas Kungs uz viņu atgriezās un sacīja: noej šinī savā spēkā, un atpestī Israēli no Midijaniešu rokas; redzi, Es tevi esmu sūtījis.
15 And he says to Him, “O my Lord, with what do I save Israel? Behold, my chief [is] weak in Manasseh, and I [am] the least in the house of my father.”
Un viņš uz to sacīja: mans Kungs, ar ko es Israēli atpestīšu? Redzi, mans radu pulks ir tas mazākais Manasū, un es esmu tas mazākais sava tēva namā.
16 And YHWH says to him, “Because I am with you—you have struck the Midianites as one man.”
Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz viņu: tāpēc ka Es būšu ar tevi, tu sitīsi Midijaniešus kā vienu vīru.
17 And he says to Him, “Now if I have found grace in Your eyes, then You have done a sign for me that You are speaking with me.
Tad tas uz Viņu sacīja: ja es esmu atradis žēlastību Tavās acīs, tad dod man jel zīmi, ka Tu tas esi, kas ar mani runā.
18 Please do not move from here until my coming to You, and I have brought out my present, and put it before You”; and He says, “I abide until your return.”
Neaizej jel no šejienes, kamēr es pie Tevis nākšu un savu ēdamo upuri atnesīšu un Tev celšu priekšā. Un Viņš sacīja: Es palikšu, kamēr tu atkal nāksi.
19 And Gideon has gone in, and prepares a kid of the goats, and an ephah of flour [worth] of unleavened things; he has put the flesh in a basket, and he has put the broth in a pot, and he brings [them] out to Him, to the place of the oak, and brings [them] near.
Un Gideons iegāja un sataisīja kazlēnu un neraudzētas karašas no vienas ēfas miltu; to gaļu viņš lika kurvī un to sulu viņš lēja podā, un to iznesa pie Viņa ārā apakš tā ozola un to nolika zemē.
20 And the Messenger of God says to him, “Take the flesh and the unleavened things, and place [them] on this rock—and pour out the broth”; and he does so.
Un tas Dieva eņģelis sacīja uz viņu: ņem to gaļu un tās neraudzētās karašas un liec to šeitan uz to akmeni un izlej to sulu; un viņš tā darīja.
21 And the Messenger of YHWH puts forth the end of the staff which [is] in His hand, and comes against the flesh, and against the unleavened things, and the fire goes up out of the rock and consumes the flesh and the unleavened things—and the Messenger of YHWH has gone from his eyes.
Tad Tā Kunga eņģelis izstiepa tā zižļa galu, kas viņam bija rokā, un aizskāra to gaļu un tās neraudzētās maizes. Tad uguns izšāvās no tā akmens un aprija to gaļu un tās neraudzētās karašas; un Tā Kunga eņģelis nozuda no viņa acīm.
22 And Gideon sees that He [is] the Messenger of YHWH, and Gideon says, “Aah, Lord YHWH! For so I have looked on the Messenger of YHWH face to face!”
Kad nu Gideons redzēja, to Tā Kunga eņģeli esam, tad Gideons sacīja: Ak vai! Kungs, Dievs! Jo es Tā Kunga eņģeli vaigu vaigā esmu redzējis!
23 And YHWH says to him, “Peace to you; do not fear; you do not die.”
Tad Tas Kungs uz viņu sacīja: miers ar tevi! nebīsties, tu nemirsi!
24 And Gideon builds an altar to YHWH there, and calls it YHWH-Shalom, it [is] yet in Ophrah of the Abi-Ezrites to this day.
Tad Gideons tur Tam Kungam uzcēla altāri un to nosauca: Tas Kungs ir miers. Tas vēl līdz šodienai ir Abiēzeriešu Ovrā.
25 And it comes to pass, on that night, that YHWH says to him, “Take the young ox which your father has, and the second bullock of seven years, and you have thrown down the altar of Ba‘al which your father has, and cut down the Asherah which [is] by it,
Un tai naktī Tas Kungs uz viņu sacīja: ņem vērsīti no sava tēva lopiem un vēl otru vērsi septiņus gadus vecu, un salauzi Baāla altāri, kas tavam tēvam, un nocērt to elka stabu, kas tur ir klātu.
26 and you have built an altar to your God YHWH on the top of this stronghold, by the arrangement, and have taken the second bullock, and caused a burnt-offering to ascend with the wood of the Asherah which you cut down.”
Un uztaisi Tam Kungam, savam Dievam, altāri šīs stiprās vietas kalna galā tā kārtīgi, un ņem to otru vērsi un upurē dedzināmo upuri ar to malku no tā elka staba, ko tu nocirtīsi.
27 And Gideon takes ten men of his servants, and does as YHWH has spoken to him, and it comes to pass, because he has been afraid of the house of his father, and the men of the city, to do [it] by day, that he does [it] by night.
Tad Gideons ņēma desmit vīrus no saviem kalpiem un darīja, kā Tas Kungs uz viņu bija runājis; bet viņš bijās no sava tēva nama un tās pilsētas vīriem dienā to darīt, un to darīja naktī.
28 And the men of the city rise early in the morning, and behold, the altar of Ba‘al has been broken down, and the Asherah which is by it has been cut down, and the second bullock has been offered on the altar which is built.
Kad nu tās pilsētas vīri rītā uzcēlās, redzi, tad Baāla altāris bija salauzīts un tas elka stabs nocirsts, kas tur klātu, un tas otrs vērsis uz tā uztaisīta altāra bija upurēts.
29 And they say to one another, “Who has done this thing?” And they inquire and seek, and they say, “Gideon son of Joash has done this thing.”
Tad tie sacīja cits uz citu: kas to darījis? Un kad tie meklēja un izvaicāja, tad tapa sacīts: Gideons, Joasa dēls, to darījis.
30 And the men of the city say to Joash, “Bring out your son, and he dies, because he has broken down the altar of Ba‘al, and because he has cut down the Asherah which [is] by it.”
Tad tās pilsētas vīri sacīja uz Joasu: izved savu dēlu, jo tam jāmirst, tāpēc ka viņš nolauzis Baāla altāri un to elka stabu nocirtis, kas tur bija klāt.
31 And Joash says to all who have stood against him, “You, do you plead for Ba‘al? You—do you save him? He who pleads for him is put to death during the morning; if he [is] a god he pleads against him himself, because he has broken down his altar.”
Un Joas sacīja uz visiem, kas pie viņa stāvēja: vai jūs tiesāsities par Baālu? Vai jūs viņu izpestīsiet? Kas par viņu tiesāsies, tam vēl šodien būs tapt nokautam. Ja viņš ir dievs, tad lai viņš pats par sevi tiesājās, tāpēc ka viņa altāris nolauzīts.
32 And he calls him, on that day, Jerubba‘al, saying, “The Ba‘al pleads against him, because he has broken down his altar.”
Un tai dienā viņu nosauca JerubBaālu un sacīja: lai Baāls ar viņu tiesājās, ka tas viņa altāri nolauzījis.
33 And all Midian and Amalek and the sons of the east have been gathered together, and pass over, and encamp in the Valley of Jezreel,
Bet visi Midijanieši un Amalekieši un tie austruma ļaudis sapulcējās kopā un pārcēlās un apmetās Jezreēles ielejā.
34 and the Spirit of YHWH has clothed Gideon, and he blows with a horn, and Abi-Ezer is called after him;
Tad Tā Kunga Gars nāca uz Gideonu, un viņš pūta trumetē un sasauca Abiēzeriešus sev pakaļ.
35 and he has sent messengers into all Manasseh, and it is also called after him; and he has sent messengers into Asher, and into Zebulun, and into Naphtali, and they come up to meet them.
Un viņš sūtīja vēstnešus pa visu Manasu; ir tie tapa sasaukti, viņam pakaļ. Un viņš sūtīja vēstnešus pa Ašeru un pa Zebulonu un pa Naftalu un tie nāca viņiem pretī.
36 And Gideon says to God, “If You are Savior of Israel by my hand, as You have spoken,
Un Gideons sacīja uz Dievu: ja Tu Israēli gribi izpestīt caur manu roku, kā Tu esi runājis, -
37 behold, I am placing the fleece of wool in the threshing-floor: if dew is only on the fleece, and dryness on all the earth—then I have known that You save Israel by my hand, as You have spoken”;
Redzi, es nolikšu aitas cirpumu uz klonu; kad rasa būs uz cirpuma vien un pa visu zemi sausums, tad es zināšu, ka Tu Israēli izpestīsi caur manu roku, kā Tu esi sacījis.
38 and it is so, and he rises early on the next day, and presses the fleece, and wrings dew out of the fleece—the fullness of the bowl of waters.
Un tā notika. Jo viņš agri no rīta uzcēlās un izspieda to cirpumu un izgrieza rasu no tā cirpuma, vienu kausu pilnu ar ūdeni.
39 And Gideon says to God, “Do not let Your anger burn against me, and I only speak this time; please let me try only this time with the fleece—please let there be only dryness on the fleece, and let there be dew on all the earth.”
Un Gideons sacīja uz Dievu: lai Tava bardzība pret mani neiedegās, ka vēl reiz' runāju, - es vēl reiz' raudzīšu ar to cirpumu. Lai jel ir sausums uz tā cirpuma vien, un pa visu zemi lai ir rasa.
40 And God does so on that night, and there is only dryness on the fleece, and there has been dew on all the earth.
Un Dievs tā darīja tanī naktī; un sausums bija uz tā cirpuma vien, un pa visu zemi bija rasa.
