1 Kings 12
1 Rehoboam went to Shechem: for all Israel had come to Shechem to make him king.
Un Rekabeams nogāja uz Šehemi, jo viss Israēls bija nācis uz Šehemi, viņu celt par ķēniņu.
2 And it happened, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard of it (for he was still in Egypt, where he had fled from the presence of king Solomon, and Jeroboam lived in Egypt), he came straight to his own city in the land of Zererah in the hill country of Ephraim.
Un Jerobeams, Nebata dēls, (to) dzirdēja vēl būdams Ēģiptes zemē, (jo viņš no ķēniņa Salamana bija bēdzis un dzīvoja Ēģiptes zemē).
3 And they sent and called for him. And Jeroboam and all the assembly of Israel came, and spoke to Rehoboam, saying,
Tad tie nosūtīja un viņu aicināja. Un Jerobeams un visa Israēla draudze nāca un runāja ar Rekabeamu un sacīja:
4 "Your father made our yoke grievous: now therefore make you the grievous service of your father, and his heavy yoke which he put on us, lighter, and we will serve you."
Tavs tēvs mums ir uzspiedis visai grūtu jūgu; atvieglini nu to grūto kalpošanu un to smago jūgu, ko tavs tēvs mums uzlicis, tad mēs tev gribam kalpot.
5 He said to them, "Depart for three days, then come back to me." The people departed.
Bet viņš uz tiem sacīja: noejat līdz parītam, tad atnākat atkal pie manis. Un tie ļaudis aizgāja.
6 King Rehoboam took counsel with the old men, who had stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, saying, "What counsel do you give me to return answer to this people?"
Un ķēniņš Rekabeams prasīja padomu no tiem vecajiem, kas viņa tēva Salamana priekšā bija stāvējuši, kad tas vēl dzīvoja, un viņš sacīja: Kādu padomu jūs dodat, kā šiem ļaudīm būs atbildēt?
7 They spoke to him, saying, "If you will be a servant to this people this day, and will serve them, and answer them, and speak good words to them, then they will be your servants forever."
Un tie uz viņu runāja un sacīja: ja tu šodien šiem ļaudīm iztiksi un tiem darīsi pa prātam un tos paklausīsi un labus vārdus uz tiem runāsi, tad tie tev būs par kalpiem visu mūžu.
8 But he forsook the counsel of the old men which they had given him, and took counsel with the young men who had grown up with him, who stood before him.
Bet viņš atmeta to vecaju padomu, ko tie viņam bija devuši, un prasīja padomu no tiem jauniem, kas ar viņu bija uzauguši un viņa priekšā stāvēja.
9 He said to them, "What counsel do you give, that we may return answer to this people, who have spoken to me, saying, 'Make the yoke that your father put on us lighter?'"
Un viņš uz tiem sacīja: kādu padomu jūs dodat, kā lai atbildam šiem ļaudīm, kas uz mani runājuši un sacījuši: atvieglini to jūgu, ko tavs tēvs mums uzlicis?
10 The young men who had grown up with him spoke to him, saying, "Thus you shall tell this people who spoke to you, saying, 'Your father made our yoke heavy, but make it lighter to us;' you shall say to them, 'My little finger is thicker than my father's waist.
Un tie jaunie, kas ar viņu bija uzauguši, uz to runāja un sacīja: tā tev būs sacīt uz tiem ļaudīm, kas uz tevi runājuši un sacījuši: tavs tēvs mūsu jūgu grūtu darījis, tad atvieglini tu to mums, - tā tev uz tiem būs sacīt: mans mazais pirksts resnāks nekā mana tēva gurni.
11 Now whereas my father burdened you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.'"
Ja nu mans tēvs jums uzlicis grūtu jūgu, tad es to jūgu jums padarīšu vēl grūtāku. Mans tēvs jūs pārmācījis ar pātagām, bet es jūs pārmācīšu ar skorpioniem.
12 So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king asked, saying, "Come to me again the third day."
Un trešā dienā Jerobeams un visi ļaudis nāca pie Rekabeama, kā ķēniņš bija runājis un sacījis: atnākat atkal pie manis trešā dienā.
13 The king answered the people roughly, and forsook the counsel of the old men which they had given him,
Un ķēniņš tiem ļaudīm atbildēja bargi, jo viņš atmeta to vecaju padomu, ko tie viņam bija devuši.
14 and spoke to them according to the counsel of the young men, saying, "My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to your yoke. My father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions."
Un viņš uz tiem runāja pēc to jauno padoma sacīdams: mans tēvs jūsu jūgu ir darījis grūtu, bet es jums to darīšu vēl grūtāku. Mans tēvs jūs pārmācījis ar pātagām, bet es jūs pārmācīšu ar skorpioniem.
15 So the king did not listen to the people; for it was a thing brought about of the LORD, that he might establish his word, which the LORD spoke by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
Un ķēniņš neklausīja tos ļaudis, jo tā tas bija no Tā Kunga nolikts, ka notiktu pēc tā vārda, ko Tas Kungs bija runājis caur Ahiju no Šīlo uz Jerobeamu, Nebata dēlu.
16 When all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them, the people answered the king, saying, "What portion do we have in David? We have no inheritance in the son of Jesse. To your tents, Israel. Now see to your own house, David." So Israel departed to their tents.
Kad nu viss Israēls redzēja, ka ķēniņš viņiem neklausīja, tad tie ļaudis ķēniņam atkal atbildēja un sacīja: kāda daļa mums ir ar Dāvidu? Mums nav īpašuma pie Isajus dēla. Israēl, ej savos dzīvokļos; zinies nu par savu namu, Dāvid! Tā Israēls gāja uz saviem dzīvokļiem.
17 But as for the children of Israel who lived in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.
Bet tik pār tiem Israēla bērniem, kas dzīvoja Jūda pilsētās, Rekabeams bija ķēniņš.
18 Then king Rehoboam sent Adoram, who was over the men subject to forced labor; and all Israel stoned him to death with stones. King Rehoboam made speed to get him up to his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
Tad ķēniņš Rekabeams sūtīja Adoramu, kas bija strādnieku uzraugs; bet viss Israēls to nomētāja akmeņiem, ka tas nomira. Bet ķēniņš Rekabeams kāpa steigšus ratos, bēgt uz Jeruzālemi.
19 So Israel rebelled against the house of David to this day.
Tā Israēls atkrita no Dāvida nama līdz šai dienai.
20 It happened, when all Israel heard that Jeroboam had returned, that they sent and called him to the congregation, and made him king over all Israel: there was none who followed the house of David, but the tribe of Judah only.
Un kad viss Israēls dzirdēja, ka Jerobeams bija pārnācis, tad tie sūtīja un viņu aicināja uz sapulci un cēla par ķēniņu pār visu Israēli. Neviens neturējās pie Dāvida nama, kā Jūda cilts vien.
21 When Rehoboam had come to Jerusalem, he assembled all the house of Judah, and the tribe of Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand chosen men, who were warriors, to fight against the house of Israel, to bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam the son of Solomon.
Kad nu Rekabeams nonāca Jeruzālemē, tad viņš sapulcēja visu Jūda namu un Benjamina cilti, simts un astoņdesmit tūkstoš izlasītus kara vīrus, karot ar Israēla namu, valstību atkal vest pie Rekabeama, Salamana dēla.
22 But the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
Bet Dieva vārds notika uz Šemaju, Dieva vīru, tā:
23 "Speak to Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all the house of Judah and Benjamin, and to the rest of the people, saying,
Runā uz Rekabeamu, Salamana dēlu, Jūda ķēniņu, un uz visiem Jūda un Benjamina bērniem un uz tiem citiem ļaudīm un saki:
24 'Thus says the LORD, "You shall not go up, nor fight against your brothers, the children of Israel. Everyone return to his house; for this thing is of me."'" So they listened to the word of the LORD, and returned and went their way, according to the word of the LORD.
Tā saka Tas Kungs: jums nebūs celties un karā iet pret saviem brāļiem, Israēla bērniem; griežaties atpakaļ, ikkatrs savā namā, jo šī lieta caur mani notikusi. Un tie klausīja Tā Kunga vārdam un griezās atpakaļ un aizgāja pēc Tā Kunga vārda.
25 Then Jeroboam built Shechem in the hill country of Ephraim, and lived in it; and he went out from there, and built Penuel.
Un Jerobeams uztaisīja Šehemi Efraīma kalnos un tur dzīvoja, un izgāja no turienes un uztaisīja Pnuēlu.
26 Jeroboam said in his heart, "Now the kingdom will return to the house of David.
Un Jerobeams domāja savā sirdī: nu tā valstība atkal nāks pie Dāvida nama;
27 If this people goes up to offer sacrifices in the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, then the heart of this people will turn again to their lord, even to Rehoboam king of Judah; and they will kill me, and return to Rehoboam king of Judah."
Ja šie ļaudis ies uz Jeruzālemi upurēt Tā Kunga namā, tad šo ļaužu sirds atkal griezīsies pie sava kunga, pie Rekabeama, Jūda ķēniņa, un tie mani nokaus un griezīsies atkal pie Rekabeama, Jūda ķēniņa.
28 Whereupon the king took counsel, and made two calves of gold; and he said to the people, "It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem. Look and see your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt."
Tāpēc ķēniņš aprunājās un taisīja divus zelta tēlus, un sacīja uz tiem (ļaudīm): jums pa daudz, iet uz Jeruzālemi, redzi, še tavs dievs, Israēl, kas tevi no Ēģiptes zemes izvedis.
29 He set the one in Bethel, and the other he put in Dan.
Un viņš lika vienu Bētelē un otru Danā.
30 Then this thing became a sin, for the people went before the one at Bethel and before the one as far as Dan.
Un tas bija par apgrēcību; jo tie ļaudis gāja gan pie tā viena, gan pie tā otra līdz Danam.
31 And he made houses on high places, and made priests from among all the people, who were not of the sons of Levi.
Viņš taisīja arī kalna altāra namu un iecēla priesterus no visādiem ļaudīm, kas nebija no Levja bērniem.
32 Jeroboam ordained a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, like the feast that is in Judah, and he went up to the altar; he did so in Bethel, sacrificing to the calves that he had made: and he placed in Bethel the priests of the high places that he had made.
Un Jerobeams turēja svētkus astotā mēnesī piecpadsmitā mēneša dienā, tāpat kā tos svētkus, kas iekš Jūda bija, un upurēja uz tā altāra. Tā viņš Bētelē darīja, tiem teļiem upurēdams, ko viņš bija taisījis; viņš iecēla arīdzan Bētelē priesterus pie tiem kalna altāriem, ko viņš bija taisījis.
33 He went up to the altar which he had made in Bethel on the fifteenth day in the eighth month, even in the month which he had devised of his own heart: and he ordained a feast for the children of Israel, and went up to the altar, to burn incense.
Un viņš upurēja uz tā altāra, ko viņš Bētelē bija taisījis, piecpadsmitā mēneša dienā, astotā mēnesī, ko viņš pats bija izdomājis; tā viņš Israēla bērniem iecēla svētkus un upurēja uz tā altāra kvēpinādams.
