2 Chronicles 25
1 Amaziah was 25 years old when he became the king [of Judah], and he ruled from Jerusalem for 29 years. His mother was Jehoaddin; she was from Jerusalem.
Amacīja bija divdesmit piecus gadus vecs, kad palika par ķēniņu, un valdīja Jeruzālemē divdesmit deviņus gadus, un viņa mātei vārds bija Joadana, no Jeruzālemes.
2 Amaziah did many things that pleased Yahweh, but he did not do them enthusiastically.
Un viņš darīja, kas Tam Kungam labi patika, tomēr ne no visas sirds.
3 As soon as he was in complete control of his kingdom, he caused to be executed the officials who had murdered his father.
Kad nu viņš bija stiprinājies savā valstībā, tad viņš nokāva savus kalpus, kas bija kāvuši viņa tēvu, to ķēniņu.
4 But he did not command their sons to be executed; he obeyed what was in the laws that Moses had written. In those laws Yahweh had commanded, “People must not be executed because of [what] their children [have done], and children must not be executed for [what] their parents [have done]. People must be executed only for the sins that they themselves have committed.”
Bet viņu bērnus viņš nenokāva, kā ir rakstīts Mozus bauslības grāmatā, kur Tas Kungs pavēlējis sacīdams: tēviem nebūs mirt par bērniem, un bērniem nebūs mirt par tēviem, bet ikviens lai mirst savu paša grēku dēļ.
5 Amaziah summoned the men of [the tribes of] Judah and Benjamin to come to Jerusalem, and there he put them in groups, each clan in a group by themselves. Then he appointed officers to command each group. Some officers commanded 100 men and some commanded 1,000 men. They counted the men who were at least 20 years old; altogether there were 300,000 men. They were all men who were prepared to be in the army, and able to [fight well, ] using spears and shields.
Un Amacīja salpulcināja Jūdu un tos šķīra pēc tēvu namiem, pēc tūkstošniekiem un pēc simtniekiem pa visu Jūdu un Benjaminu, un skaitīja no tiem tos, kas divdesmit un vairāk gadus bija veci, un atrada no tiem trīs simt reizi tūkstoš izlasītus, kas varēja iet karā un nesa šķēpus un priekšturamās bruņas.
6 Amaziah also hired 100,000 capable soldiers from Israel and paid almost four tons of silver for them.
Un viņš saderēja no Israēla simt tūkstoš stiprus karavīrus par simts talentiem sudraba.
7 But a prophet came to him and said, “Your majesty, you must not allow those soldiers from Israel to march with your soldiers, because Yahweh does not help the people of the tribe of Ephraim or from [anywhere else in] Israel.
Bet viens Dieva vīrs nāca pie viņa un sacīja: ķēniņ! Israēla spēks lai tev neiet līdz, jo Tas Kungs nav ar Israēli, ar nevienu no Efraīma bērniem.
8 Even if your soldiers go and fight courageously in battles, God will cause your enemies to defeat you; do not forget that God has the power to help armies or to cause them to be defeated.”
Bet ja tu iesi un (to) darīsi un būsi drošs uz karu, tad Dievs tev liks krist ienaidnieka priekšā; jo Dievam ir spēks palīdzēt un nogāzt,
9 Amaziah asked that prophet, “If I do that, what about the huge amount of silver that I paid to hire those soldiers from Israel?” The prophet replied, “Yahweh is able to pay you back more money than you paid [to hire those soldiers].”
Un Amacīja sacīja uz to Dieva vīru: bet ko tad es darīšu ar tiem simts talentiem, ko esmu devis Israēla karavīriem? Bet tas Dieva vīrs sacīja: Tam Kungam ir vairāk tev ko dot nekā tik daudz.
10 So Amaziah told those soldiers from Israel to return home. They left to go home, but they were very angry with the king of Judah [for not allowing them to stay and fight].
Tad Amacīja atšķīra tos karavīrus, kas no Efraīma bija nākuši pie viņa, lai tie ietu uz savām mājām. Bet tie ļoti apskaitās pret Jūdu un ar lielām dusmām griezās atkal atpakaļ uz savām mājām.
11 Then Amaziah became brave, and he led his army to the Salt Valley. There they killed 10,000 men from the Edom people-group.
Un Amacīja ņēmās drošu prātu un izveda savus ļaudis un nogāja sāls ielejā un kāva desmit tūkstošus no Seīra bērniem.
12 The army of Judah also captured 10,000 others, and took them to the top of a cliff and threw them all down over the cliff, with the result that their corpses were all smashed to pieces.
Un Jūda bērni sagūstīja no tiem desmit tūkstošus dzīvus un tos veda klints galā un tos nogāza no paša klints gala, ka tie visi tapa sašķelti.
13 While that was happening, the soldiers from Israel whom Amaziah had sent home after not allowing them to fight along with his soldiers, raided cities and towns in Judea, from Samaria [city] to Beth-Horon [town]. They killed 3,000 people and took away a great amount of valuable things.
Bet tie karavīri, kam Amacīja bija licis iet atpakaļ, lai tie ar viņu karā neietu, tie ielauzās Jūda pilsētās no Samarijas līdz BetOronai un kāva no tiem trīs tūkstošus un aiznesa lielu laupījumu.
14 When Amaziah returned [to Jerusalem] after his army had slaughtered the soldiers from Edom, he brought the idols that were worshiped by the people of Edom. He set them up to be his own gods. Then he bowed down to [worship] them and offered sacrifices to them.
Kad nu Amacīja pārnāca no Edomiešu kaujas un bija atvedis līdz Seīra bērnu dievus, tad viņš tos sev iecēla par dieviem un metās zemē viņu priekšā un tiem kvēpināja.
15 Because of that, Yahweh was very angry with Amaziah. He sent a prophet to him, who said, “Why do you worship these foreign gods that were not even able to save their own people when your army attacked them?”
Tad Tā Kunga bardzība iedegās pret Amacīju, un Viņš sūtīja pie tā pravieti. Tas uz viņu sacīja: kāpēc tu esi meklējis to ļaužu dievus, kas savus ļaudis nevarēja atpestīt no tavas rokas?
16 While he was still speaking, the king said to him, “We certainly did not appoint you to be one of my advisors. So stop [talking]! If you say anything more, [I will tell my soldiers to] kill you!” So the prophet said, “I know that God has determined to get rid of you, because you have [begun to] worship idols, and have not heeded my advice.” Then the prophet said nothing more.
Kad nu viņš uz to tā runāja, tad tas uz viņu sacīja: vai tu esi iecelts par ķēniņa padoma devēju? Esi klusu, kāpēc lai tevi nokauj? Tad tas pravietis apklusa un sacīja: es gan atzīstu, ka Dievs apņēmies tevi samaitāt, tāpēc ka tu to esi darījis un neesi klausījis manam padomam.
17 Some time later Amaziah, the king of Judah, consulted his advisors. Then he sent a message to Jehoash, the king of Israel. He wrote, “Come here and let’s talk together.”
Un Amacīja, Jūda ķēniņš, aprunājās un sūtīja pie Jehoasa, Joakasa dēla, Jeūs dēla dēla, Israēla ķēniņa, un sacīt: nāc, griezīsim vaigu pret vaigu!
18 But Jehoash replied to King Amaziah, “One time a thistle growing [in the mountains] in Lebanon sent a message to a cedar tree saying, ‘Let your daughter marry my son.’ But a wild animal in Lebanon came along and trampled the thistle under its feet.
Bet Jehoas, Israēla ķēniņš, sūtīja pie Amacījas, Jūda ķēniņa, un lika sacīt: ērkšķu krūms uz Lībanus sūtīja pie ciedra koka uz Lībanus un sacīja: dod savu meitu manam dēlam par sievu; bet tie lauka zvēri, kas uz Lībanus, gāja pāri un samina to ērkšķu krūmu.
19 [The meaning of what I am saying is that] you are saying to yourself that your army has defeated the army of Edom, so you have become very proud. But you should stay at your home. It would not be good for you to cause trouble, which would result in you and your kingdom of Judah being destroyed.”
Redzi, tu domā, tu esi kāvis Edomiešus, un tava sirds lepojās un lielās. Nu tad, paliec mājās, kāpēc tu gribi skriet nelaimē, pats krist un Jūda līdz ar tevi?
20 But Amaziah refused to heed Jehoash’s message. That happened because God wanted Jehoash’s army to defeat them, because they were worshiping the gods of Edom.
Bet Amacīja neklausīja, jo tas notika no Dieva, lai viņš tos viņiem dotu rokā, tāpēc ka tie bija meklējuši Edomiešu dievus.
21 So Jehoash’s army attacked. Their two armies faced each other at Beth-Shemesh [city] in Judah.
Un Jehoas, Israēla ķēniņš, cēlās, un tie grieza vaigu pret vaigu, viņš un Amacīja, Jūda ķēniņš, BetŠemē iekš Jūda.
22 The army of Judah was badly defeated by the army of Israel, and all the soldiers of Judah fled to their homes.
Un Jūda tapa kauts Israēla priekšā, un tie bēga ikviens uz savu dzīvokli.
23 King Jehoash’s army also captured King Amaziah there. Then he brought Amaziah to Jerusalem, and his soldiers tore down the wall [that was around the city], from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate. That was a section that was about 600 feet long.
Un Jehoas Israēla ķēniņš, sagūstīja Amacīju, Jūda ķēniņu, Joasa dēlu, Joakasa (Ahazijas) dēla dēlu, BetŠemesā un to noveda Jeruzālemē un noplēsa Jeruzālemes mūrus no Efraīma vārtiem līdz Stūra vārtiem četrsimt olektis.
24 His soldiers also carried away the gold and silver and other valuable furnishings from the temple which the descendants of Obed-Edom had previously been guarding. They also took away the valuable things in the palace, and they took to Samaria some prisoners whom they had captured.
Un viņš ņēma visu zeltu un sudrabu un visus traukus, kas Dieva namā tapa atrasti pie ObedEdoma, un ķēniņa nama mantas līdz ar tiem galviniekiem un griezās atpakaļ uz Samariju.
25 King Jehoash of Israel died, and King Amaziah of Judah lived for 15 years after that.
Un Amacīja, Joasa dēls, Jūda ķēniņš dzīvoja pēc tam, kad Jehoas, Joakasa dēls, Israēla ķēniņš, bija nomiris, piecpadsmit gadus.
26 An account of all the other things that Amaziah did while he was the king [of Judah] is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah and Israel’.
Un kas vēl par Amacīju stāstāms, ir par viņa iesākumu, ir par viņa galu, redzi, tas rakstīts Jūda un Israēla ķēniņu grāmatā.
27 From the time that Amaziah started to disobey Yahweh, some men in Jerusalem planned to kill him. He was able to escape to Lachish [city], but those who wanted to kill him sent another group of people to Lachish and killed him there.
Un no tā laika, kamēr Amacīja no Tā Kunga bija atkāpies, dumpis pret viņu cēlās Jeruzālemē, un viņš bēga uz Laķisu. Bet tie viņam sūtīja pakaļ uz Laķisu un to tur nokāva,
28 They put his corpse on a horse and brought it back to Jerusalem and buried it where his ancestors [had been buried] in the part of Jerusalem called ‘The City of David’.
Un to atveda uz zirgiem un apraka pie viņa tēviem Jūda pilsētā.
