2 Kings 23
1 Then the king sent, —and there were gathered unto him, all the elders of Judah, and Jerusalem;
Tad ķēniņš sūtīja, un pie viņa sapulcinājās visi vecaji no Jūda un Jeruzālemes.
2 and the king went up to the house of Yahweh, and all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, both small and great, —and he read in their ears, all the words of the book of the covenant, which had been found in the house of Yahweh.
Un ķēniņš gāja Tā Kunga namā un līdz ar viņu visi Jūda vīri un visi Jeruzālemes iedzīvotāji un visi priesteri un pravieši un visi ļaudis, gan mazi, gan lieli. Un viņš lasīja priekš viņu ausīm visus vārdus no tās derības grāmatas, kas bija atrasta Tā Kunga namā.
3 And the king took his stand by the pillar, and solemnised a covenant before Yahweh—to follow Yahweh, and to keep his commandments and his testimonies and his statutes, with all [their] heart and with all [their] soul, to confirm the words of this covenant, written in this book. And all the people took their stand in the covenant.
Un ķēniņš stāvēja tai augstajā vietā un derēja derību priekš Tā Kunga vaiga, Tam Kungam pakaļ staigāt un turēt Viņa baušļus un Viņa liecības un Viņa likumus no visas sirds un no visas dvēseles, stipri turēt šās derības vārdus, kas bija rakstīti šai grāmatā. Un visi ļaudis uzņēma šo derību.
4 Then the king commanded Hilkiah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the entrance-hall, to bring forth, out of the temple of Yahweh, all the vessels that had been made for Baal and for the Sacred Stem, and for all the army of the heavens, —and he burned them up outside Jerusalem, in the fields of Kidron, and carried the ashes of them to Bethel;
Un ķēniņš pavēlēja augstajam priesterim Hilķijam, un otras kārtas priesteriem un sliekšņa sargiem, iznest no Tā Kunga nama visus rīkus, kas bija taisīti Baālam un Ašerai un visam debess pulkam, un viņš tos sadedzināja ārā aiz Jeruzālemes Kidronas ielejā un viņu pīšļus lika nest uz Bēteli.
5 and he put down the idol-priests, whom the kings of Judah had appointed, so that incense might be burned in the high places, in the cities of Judah, and round about Jerusalem, —them also that burned incense to Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the constellations, and to all the army of the heavens;
Viņš arī nocēla tos kalnu priesterus, ko Jūda ķēniņi bija iecēluši, kvēpināt uz kalniem Jūda pilsētas un ap Jeruzālemi, arī tos, kas kvēpināja Baālam, saulei un mēnesim un zvaigznēm un visam debess pulkam.
6 and he brought forth the Sacred Stem out of the house of Yahweh, outside Jerusalem, into the Kidron ravine, and burned it in the Kidron ravine, and crushed it to powder, —and cast the powder upon the graves of the sons of the people;
Viņš arī izmeta to Ašeru no Tā Kunga nama ārā aiz Jeruzālemes pie Kidronas upes un to sadedzināja pie Kidronas upes un to sagrūda pīšļos un nometa viņas pīšļus uz ļaužu bērnu kapiem.
7 and he brake down the houses of the male devotees, which were in the house of Yahweh, —where the women did weave houses to the Sacred Stem;
Viņš noplēsa arī maucinieku namus, kas pie Tā Kunga nama bija, kur sievas auda teltis priekš Ašeras.
8 and be brought in all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defiled the high places where, the priests, had burned incense, from Geba unto Beer-sheba, —and brake down the high places of the gates, that were at the entrance of the gate of Joshua, the governor of the city, which were on one’s left hand, in the gate of the city;
Un viņš saaicināja visus priesterus no Jūda pilsētām un sagānīja tos kalnu altārus, kur tie svētītāji bija kvēpinājuši, no Ģebas līdz Bēršebai, un noplēsa elku altārus pie vārtiem, to, kas bija Jozuas, pilsētas virsnieka, vārtu priekšā, (un to, kas) bija pa kreiso roku, kad ieiet pilsētas vārtos.
9 howbeit, the priests of the high places came not up unto the altar of Yahweh, in Jerusalem, save only that they did eat unleavened bread in the midst of their brethren;
Bet kalnu priesteri neupurēja uz Tā Kunga altāra Jeruzālemē, bet tie ēda neraudzētu maizi starp saviem brāļiem.
10 and he defiled Topheth, which was in the valley of the son of Hinnom, —so that no man might cause his son or his daughter to pass through the fire unto Molech;
Viņš sagānīja arī Tovetu, Inoma bērnu ielejā, ka neviens savam dēlam vai meitai neliktu caur uguni iet Molokam.
11 and he did away with the horses, which the kings of Judah had devoted to the sun, at the entrance of the house of Yahweh, near the chamber of Nathan-melech the courtier, which was in the suburbs, also, the chariots of the sun, burned he with fire;
Viņš arī atmeta tos zirgus, ko Jūda ķēniņi saulei bija cēluši, kur Tā Kunga namā iet, pie kambarjunkura NetanMeleka kambara, kas iekš Parvarim, un sadedzināja arī saules ratus ar uguni.
12 and, the altars which were on the roof of the upper chamber of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, also the altars which Manasseh had made, in the two courts of the house of Yahweh, did the king break down, —and hurried away from thence, and cast out the powder of them into the Kidron ravine;
Viņš noplēsa arī tos altārus, kas bija uz Ahaza augšistabas jumta, ko Jūda ķēniņi bija taisījuši līdz ar tiem altāriem, ko Manasus bija taisījis Tā Kunga nama abos pagalmos, un tos sagrūda un meta viņu pīšļus Kidronas upē.
13 and, the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the right hand of the mount of destruction, which Solomon king of Israel had built unto Ashtoreth—the abomination of the Zidonians, and unto Chemosh—the abomination of the Moabites, and unto Milcom—the disgusting thing of the sons of Ammon, did the king defile;
Un ķēniņš sagānīja tos kalnu altārus Jeruzālemes priekšā, pa labo roku samaitāšanas kalnam, ko Salamans, Israēla ķēniņš, bija uztaisījis Astartei, Sidona negantībai, un Kamosam, Moaba negantībai, un Milkonam, Amona bērnu negantībai.
14 and he brake in pieces the pillars, and cut down the Sacred Stems, —and filled their place with human bones:
Un viņš sadragāja tos stabus un nopostīja tās Ašeras un pildīja viņu vietas ar cilvēku kauliem.
15 moreover also, the altar that was in Bethel, the high place which Jeroboam son of Nebat made, wherewith he caused, Israel, to sin, —even that altar, and the high place, brake he down, —and burned the high place, crushing it to powder, and burned a Sacred Stem.
Viņš noplēsa arī to altāri, kas bija Bētelē, to kalna namu, ko Jerobeams, Nebata dēls, bija taisījis, kas Israēli paveda uz grēkiem: to altāri un kalna namu viņš noplēsa un sadedzināja to kalna namu un to sagrūda pīšļos un sadedzināja to Ašeru.
16 And, when Josiah turned, and saw the graves which were there, in the mount, he sent and took the bones out of the graves, and burned upon the altar, and defiled it, —according to the word of Yahweh, which the man of God proclaimed, who proclaimed these things.
Un Josija apgriezās un redzēja tos kapus, kas tur tanī kalnā bija; un viņš sūtīja un ņēma tos kaulus no tiem kapiem un tos sadedzināja uz tā altāra un to sagānīja pēc Tā Kunga vārda, ko tas Dieva vīrs bija sludinājis, kas šīs lietas sludināja.
17 Then said he—What is yonder erection, which I do see? And the men of the city said unto him—The grave of the man of God, who came in out of Judah, and proclaimed these things, which thou hast done, concerning the altar of Bethel.
Un viņš sacīja: kas tā par kapa zīmi, ko es redzu? Un tās pilsētas ļaudis uz to sacīja: Tas ir Tā Dieva vīra kaps, kas no Jūda atnāca un šās lietas pasludināja, ko tu pie Bēteles altāra darījis.
18 And he said—Let him rest, let, no man, disturb his bones. So they let his bones rest, with the bones of the prophet who came in out of Samaria.
Un viņš sacīja: Lai tas dus mierā, neviens lai neaiztiek viņa kaulus. Tā tie izglāba viņa kaulus ar tā pravieša kauliem, kas no Samarijas bija nācis.
19 Moreover also, all the houses of the high places which were in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made, so as to provoke Yahweh to anger, did Josiah remove, —and he did to them according to all the doings which he had done in Bethel;
Josija arī noplēsa visus kalnu namus Samarijas pilsētās, ko Israēla ķēniņi bija cēluši, to (Kungu) kaitinādami, un viņš tiem darīja, kā viņš Bētelē bija darījis.
20 and he sacrificed all the priests of the high places, who were there, by the altars, and burned human bones thereupon, —and returned to Jerusalem.
Un visus kalnu priesterus, kas tur bija, viņš nokāva uz tiem altāriem un sadedzināja cilvēku kaulus uz tiem; tad viņš griezās atpakaļ uz Jeruzālemi.
21 Then did the king command all the people, saying, Keep ye a passover unto Yahweh, your God, —such as is written in this book of the covenant.
Un ķēniņš pavēlēja visiem ļaudīm sacīdams: turat Tam Kungam, savam Dievam, Pasa svētkus, kā šīs derības grāmatā rakstīts.
22 Surely there had not been held such a passover as this, from the days of the Judges who judged Israel, —nor all the days of the kings of Israel, and the kings of Judah;
Jo tādi Pasa svētki kā šie nebija turēti nedz soģu laikā, kas Israēli tiesāja, nedz visu Israēla ķēniņu, nedz Jūda ķēniņu laikā;
23 save only, in the eighteenth year of King Josiah, when this passover was held unto Yahweh, in Jerusalem.
Bet ķēniņa Josijas astoņpadsmitā gadā šie Pasa svētki Tam Kungam tapa turēti Jeruzālemē.
24 Moreover also, them who had familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the household gods, and the manufactured gods, and the abominations which were to be seen in the land of Judah, and in Jerusalem, did Josiah consume, —that he might confirm the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest had found in the house of Yahweh.
Un Josija arī izdeldēja pūtējus un burvjus, tēlus un elkus un visu negantību, ko vien redzēja Jūda zemē un Jeruzālemē, ka viņš stipri turētu bauslības vārdus, kas bija rakstīti tai grāmatā, ko priesteris Hilķija bija atradis Tā Kunga namā.
25 And, like him, was no king, before him, who turned unto Yahweh with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses, —neither, after him, arose one, like him.
Un priekš viņa nebija tāds ķēniņš, kā viņš, kas pie Tā Kunga būtu atgriezies no visas savas sirds un no visas savas dvēseles un ar visu savu spēku, pēc visas Mozus bauslības, un arī pēc viņa tāds necēlās, kā viņš.
26 Howbeit, Yahweh turned not away from the glow of his great anger, wherewith his anger glowed against Judah—because of all the provocations wherewith, Manasseh, had provoked him.
Tomēr Tas Kungs negriezās no Savas lielās dusmības karstuma, ar ko Viņa bardzība pret Jūdu bija iedegusies, par visu kaitināšanu, ar ko Manasus Viņu bija kaitinājis.
27 So Yahweh said: Even Judah, will I remove from my presence, as I have removed Israel, —and will reject this city, which I had chosen, even Jerusalem, and the house as to which I had said, My Name, shall be, there.
Un Tas Kungs sacīja: Es atmetīšu arī Jūdu nost no Sava vaiga, kā Es Israēli esmu atmetis, un atmetīšu šo pilsētu, ko Es biju izredzējis, proti Jeruzālemi, un to namu, par ko biju sacījis: Mans vārds tur būs.
28 Now, the rest of the story of Josiah, and all that he did, are, they, not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
Un kas vēl par Josiju stāstāms un viss, ko viņš darījis, tas rakstīts Jūda ķēniņu laiku grāmatā.
29 In his days, came up Pharaoh-necoh king of Egypt, against the king of Assyria, unto the river Euphrates, —and, when King Josiah went against him, he slew him at Megiddo, as soon as he saw him.
Viņa laikā Faraons Nekus, Ēģiptes ķēniņš, cēlās pret Asīrijas ķēniņu pie Eifrat upes. Un ķēniņš Josija tam gāja pretī, un Ēģiptes ķēniņš to nokāva pie Meģidus, kad tie sastapās.
30 And his servants conveyed him in a chariot, dead, from Megiddo, and brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own sepulchre, —and the people of the land took Jehoahaz, son of Josiah, and anointed him, and made, him, king, in his father’s stead.
Un viņa kalpi to aizveda nomirušu no Meģidus un to noveda uz Jeruzālemi un to apraka viņa kapā. Un tās zemes ļaudis ņēma Joakasu, Josijas dēlu, un to svaidīja un cēla par ķēniņu viņa tēva vietā.
31 Twenty-three years old, was Jehoahaz when he began to reign, and, three months, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, his mother’s name, was Hamutal daughter of Jeremiah, of Libnah.
Joakas bija divdesmit un trīs gadus vecs, kad viņš palika par ķēniņu, un valdīja trīs mēnešus Jeruzālemē. Un viņa mātei bija vārds Amutala, Jeremijas meita no Libnas.
32 And he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, according to all that his, fathers, had done.
Un viņš darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika, kā viņa tēvi bija darījuši.
33 And Pharaoh-necoh put him in bonds at Riblah, in the land of Hamath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem, —and he laid a fine upon the land, a hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold.
Bet Faraons Nekus to saistīja Riblatā, Hamatas zemē, lai nebūtu vairs par ķēniņu Jeruzālemē, un viņš uzlika zemei meslus dot, simts talentus sudraba un vienu talentu zelta.
34 And Pharaoh-necoh made Eliakim son of Josiah king, instead of Josiah his father, and turned his name to Jehoiakim, —and, Jehoahaz, took he away, so he entered Egypt, and died there.
Un Faraons Nekus iecēla par ķēniņu Elijaķimu, Josijas dēlu, viņa tēva Josijas vietā, un viņam deva citu vārdu, Jojaķimu. Bet Joakasu viņš ņēma līdz, un tas nāca uz Ēģipti un tur nomira.
35 And, the silver and the gold, did Jehoiakim give unto Pharaoh, howbeit he assessed the land, that he might give the silver at the bidding of Pharaoh, —every man, according to his assessment, exacted the silver and the gold of the people of the land, that he might give it to Pharaoh-necoh.
Un Jojaķims Faraonam deva sudrabu un zeltu. Bet viņš lika zemi uzrakstīt, lai varētu to sudrabu dot pēc Faraona pavēles, no ikkatra pēc tā raksta viņš to zeltu un sudrabu piedzina no zemes ļaudīm, ko dot Faraonam Nekum.
36 Twenty-five years old, was Jehoiakim when he began to reign, and, eleven years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, his mother’s name, was Zebudah daughter of Pedaiah, of Rumah.
Jojaķims bija divdesmit pieci gadus vecs, kad palika par ķēniņu, un valdīja vienpadsmit gadus Jeruzālemē. Un viņa mātei bija vārds Zebuda, Pedajus meita, no Rumas.
37 And he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —according to all that, his fathers, had done.
Un viņš darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika, kā viņa tēvi bija darījuši.
