< Isaiah 36 >
1 Now it happened in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, that Sennacherib king of Assyria attacked all of the fortified cities of Judah, and captured them.
Un notikās ķēniņa Hizkijas četrpadsmitā gadā, tad Sanheribs, Asīrijas ķēniņš, cēlās pret visām stiprām Jūda pilsētām un tās uzņēma.
2 The king of Assyria sent Rabshakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem to king Hezekiah with a large army. He stood by the aqueduct from the upper pool on the highway to the Launderers' Field.
Un Asīrijas ķēniņš sūtīja Rabzaku no Laķisa uz Jeruzālemi pie ķēniņa Hizkijas ar varen lielu karaspēku, un viņš stāvēja pie augšēja dīķa grāvjiem, vadmalnieka tīruma ceļa malā.
3 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder came out to him.
Tad pie viņa izgāja nama uzraugs Elijaķims, Hilķijas dēls, un skrīveris Šebna, un kanclers Joaks, Asafa dēls.
4 Rabshakeh said to them, "Now tell Hezekiah, 'Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria, "What confidence is this in which you trust?
Un Rabzakus uz tiem sacīja: sakāt jel Hizkijam: Tā saka tas lielais ķēniņš, Asīrijas ķēniņš: Kas tas tāds patvērums, uz ko tu paļaujies?
5 Do you think that empty words are strategy and power for war? Now in whom do you trust, that you have rebelled against me?
Es saku: tas ir tukšs vārds, ka diezgan esot padoma un spēka uz karu; uz ko tad tu paļaujies, ka tu no manis esi atkritis?
6 Look, you trust in the staff of this bruised reed, even in Egypt, which if a man leans on it, it will go into his hand and pierce it. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who trust in him.
Redzi, tu paļaujies uz to salūzušo niedri, uz Ēģipti. Kas uz to atspiežas, tam tā ies rokā un to pārdurs. Tāds ir faraons, Ēģiptes ķēniņš, visiem, kas uz viņu paļaujas.
7 But if you tell me, 'We trust in YHWH our God,' isn't that he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah has taken away, and has said to Judah and to Jerusalem, 'You shall worship before this altar?'"
Bet ja tu uz mani saki: Mēs paļaujamies uz To Kungu, savu Dievu, - vai tas nav tas pats, kam kalnus un altārus Hizkija ir nopostījis un sacījis uz Jūdu un Jeruzālemi: priekš šī altāra še jums būs pielūgt?
8 Now therefore, please make a pledge to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give you two thousand horses, if you are able on your part to set riders on them.
Nu tad, noderi jel ar manu kungu, Asīrijas ķēniņu, un es tev došu divtūkstoš zirgus, ja tev ir jātnieki, ko tiem likt virsū.
9 How then can you turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put your trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?
Kā tad tu varēsi atsist atpakaļ vienu pašu virsnieku no mana kunga vismazākiem kalpiem? Bet tu paļaujies uz Ēģipti, ratu un jātnieku dēļ.
10 Have I come up now without YHWH against this land to destroy it? YHWH said to me, "Go up against this land, and destroy it."'"
Vai tad nu es bez Tā Kunga esmu cēlies pret šo zemi, to izpostīt? Tas Kungs uz mani sacījis: Celies pret šo zemi un izposti to!
11 Then Eliakim, Shebna and Joah said to Rabshakeh, "Please speak to your servants in Aramaic, for we understand it; and do not speak to us in the Jews' language in the hearing of the people who are on the wall."
Tad Elijaķims un Šebna un Joāks sacīja uz Rabzaku: Runā jel ar saviem kalpiem sīriski, mēs to gan protam, un nerunā ar mums jūdiski priekš šo ļaužu ausīm, kas ir uz mūra.
12 But Rabshakeh said, "Has my master sent me only to your master and to you, to speak these words, and not to the men who sit on the wall, who will eat their own dung and drink their own urine with you?"
Bet Rabzakus sacīja: Vai mans kungs mani sūtījis pie tava kunga un pie tevis, šos vārdus runāt, vai ne pie tiem vīriem, kas sēž uz mūra, kam līdz ar jums būs jāēd savi sūdi un jādzer savi mīzali?
13 Then Rabshakeh stood, and called out with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and said, "Hear the words of the great king, the king of Assyria.
Un Rabzakus nostājās un sauca ar stipru balsi jūdiski un sacīja: klausāties tā lielā ķēniņa, Asīrijas ķēniņa, vārdus!
14 Thus says the king, 'Do not let Hezekiah deceive you; for he will not be able to deliver you.
Tā saka ķēniņš: Lai Hizkija jūs neapmāna, jo viņš jūs nevarēs izglābt.
15 Do not let Hezekiah make you trust in YHWH, saying, "YHWH will surely deliver us. This city won't be given into the hand of the king of Assyria."'
Lai arī Hizkija jums nedara cerību uz To Kungu, sacīdams: tiešām, Tas Kungs mūs izglābs, šī pilsēta netaps dota Asīrijas ķēniņa rokā!
16 Do not listen to Hezekiah, for thus says the king of Assyria, 'Make your peace with me, and come out to me; and each of you eat from his vine, and each one from his fig tree, and each one of you drink the waters of his own cistern;
Neklausāties uz Hizkiju. Jo tā saka Asīrijas ķēniņš: Deriet ar mani mieru un nākat pie manis ārā, tad ikviens ēdīs no sava vīna koka un ikviens no sava vīģes koka, un ikviens dzers ūdeni no savas akas,
17 until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards.
Kamēr es nākšu, un jūs aizvedīšu tādā zemē, kā jūsu zeme, zeme, kur ir labība un vīns, zeme, kur ir maize un vīna dārzi.
18 Beware lest Hezekiah persuade you, saying, "YHWH will deliver us." Have any of the gods of the nations delivered their lands from the hand of the king of Assyria?
Lai Hizkija jūs nepieviļ, sacīdams: Tas Kungs mūs izglābs! Vai gan pagānu dievi ikviens savu zemi izglābuši no Asīrijas ķēniņa rokas?
19 Where are the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Iwah? Have they delivered Samaria from my hand?
Kur ir Hamatas un Arpadas dievi, kur ir Sefarvaimas dievi? Vai tie gan Samariju izglābuši no manas rokas?
20 Who are they among all the gods of these countries that have delivered their country out of my hand, that YHWH should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?'"
Kurš no visiem šo zemju dieviem savu zemi izglābis no manas rokas? Kā tad Tas Kungs Jeruzālemi izglābs no manas rokas?
21 But they remained silent, and said nothing in reply, for the king's commandment was, "Do not answer him."
Bet tie cieta klusu un viņam neatbildēja neviena vārda, jo ķēniņš bija pavēlējis un sacījis: Jums nebūs viņam atbildēt.
22 Then Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder, came to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.
Tad nama uzraugs Elijaķims, Hilķijas dēls, un skrīveris Šebna un kanclers Joaks, Asafa dēls, nāca pie Hizkijas ar saplēstām drēbēm un viņam stāstīja Rabzakus vārdus.
