< 2 Chronicles 31 >
1 After the festival ended, the Israelis who were there went to all the towns in Judah and smashed the stones/pillars [for worshiping idols], and cut down the poles [for worshiping the goddess] Asherah. They destroyed the shrines on the hilltops and the altars [of Baal] throughout the areas where the tribes of Judah and Benjamin lived, and also in the areas of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh. After destroying all of them, they returned to their own towns.
Kad nu viss tas bija pabeigts, tad viss Israēls, kas bija sanācis, izgāja Jūda pilsētās un nolauzīja tos uzceltos tēlus un nocirta tās Ašeras un izpostīja tos elku kalnus un altārus pa visu Jūdu un Benjaminu un Efraīmu un Manasu, līdz visu nopostīja. Un tad visi Israēla bērni griezās atpakaļ, ikkatrs uz savām mājām savās pilsētās.
2 Hezekiah divided the priests and [other] descendants of Levi into groups. He appointed some of the groups to offer sacrifices that would be completely burned [on the altar] and offerings to maintain fellowship [with Yahweh]. He appointed some groups to do other work at the temple: some to lead the people in their worship, some to thank Yahweh, and some to sing songs to praise to Yahweh at the gates of the temple.
Un Hizkija nolika priesteru un levitu kārtas pēc viņu kārtām, ikkatru pēc savas kalpošanas, priesterus un levitus pie dedzināmiem upuriem un pateicības upuriem, kalpot un teikt un slavēt Tā Kunga lēģeru vārtos.
3 The king contributed some of his own funds to buy animals that would be sacrificed in the morning and in the evening of each day, and on the Sabbath days, to celebrate the new moons, and during the other feasts, according to what was written in the laws [that Yahweh gave to Moses].
Un (viņš nosprieda arī) ķēniņa daļu no sava padoma pie dedzināmiem upuriem rītos un vakaros un pie dedzināmiem upuriem svētdienās un jaunos mēnešos un svētkos, tā kā Tā Kunga bauslībā rakstīts.
4 Hezekiah told the people living in Jerusalem to give to the priests and the other descendants of Levi the portions [of meat] that should be given to them, in order that they could devote all their time to obeying the laws of Yahweh.
Un viņš sacīja uz tiem ļaudīm, kas Jeruzālemē dzīvoja, lai priesteriem un levitiem dod savu daļu, ka tie turētos pie Tā Kunga bauslības.
5 As soon as he told that to the people, they generously gave the first part of their harvest of grain, and the first part of the new wine [that they produced], and [olive] oil and honey, and of the crops that grew in their fields. They brought [to the temple] a tenth of all their crops.
Kad nu šī valoda izpaudās, tad Israēla bērni atnesa bagātīgi pirmajus no labības, vīna un eļļas un medus un no visiem tīruma augļiem, arī desmito(tiesu) no visādām lietām tie atnesa lielā pulkā.
6 The men of Israel and Judah who were living in various towns in Judah also brought a tenth of their cattle and sheep and goats, and a tenth of other things that they had dedicated to Yahweh their God, and they piled all those things in heaps.
Un Israēla un Jūda bērni, kas Jūda pilsētās dzīvoja tie arīdzan atnesa desmito no vēršiem un avīm un desmito no tā, ko tie bija svētījuši Tam Kungam, savam Dievam, un to sakrāva kaudžu kaudzēs.
7 They started to do that in May and finished doing it in September.
Trešā mēnesī tie iesāka tās kaudzes kraut, un septītā mēnesī tie pabeidza.
8 When Hezekiah and his officials saw the heaps, they praised Yahweh and [requested God to] bless the people.
Kad nu Hizkija un tie lielkungi nāca un tās kaudzes redzēja, tad tie teica To Kungu un Viņa tautu Israēli.
9 But Hezekiah asked the priests and other descendants of Levi, “Why are these heaps of things here?”
Un Hizkija vaicāja tiem priesteriem un levitiem par tām kaudzēm.
10 Then Azariah the [Supreme] Priest, a descendant of Zadok, replied, “Since the time that the people started to bring their offerings to the temple, we have had even more food than we need. This has happened because Yahweh has greatly blessed our fellow Israelis, with the result that all this is left over [after we priests and other descendants of Levi took all that we need]!”
Un augstais priesteris Azarija, no Cadoka nama, runāja uz to un sacīja: kamēr ir sākts nest šo cilājamo upuri Tā Kunga namā, esam ēduši un paēduši, un daudz vēl atlicis, jo Tas Kungs ir svētījis Savus ļaudis, tā ka tik pulka ir atlicis.
11 Then Hezekiah ordered that they should prepare storerooms in the temple. So they did that.
Tad Hizkija pavēlēja taisīt kambarus pie Tā Kunga nama.
12 Then they brought into the storerooms all the tithes and offerings and the things dedicated to Yahweh [which the people had brought]. One of the descendants of Levi whose name was Conaniah was in charge of those things, and his [younger] brother Shimei was his assistant.
Un tos taisīja un tur ienesa to cilājamo upuri un to desmito un tās svētītās dāvanas ar uzticību. Un levits Kananija pār to bija tas virsnieks, un Šimejus, viņa brālis, tas otrais.
13 Those two men supervised Jehiel, Azaziah, Nahath, Asahel, Jerimoth, Jozabad, Eliel, Ismakiah, Mahath and Benaiah while they did the work. They were appointed by King Hezekiah; Azariah was in charge of [everything that was done in] the temple.
Bet Jeīels un Azazija un Nagats un Azaēls un Jerimots un Jozabats un Eliēls un Jezmaķija un Makats un Benaja bija par uzlūkiem apakš Kananijas un Šimejus, viņa brāļa, caur ķēniņa Hizkijas un Azarijas, Dieva nama virsnieka, pavēli.
14 Kore the son of Imnah, another descendant of Levi, who guarded the east gate of the temple, was in charge of the offerings to God that were made voluntarily. He distributed to the priests and [other] descendants of Levi the offerings and other things that were dedicated to Yahweh.
Un levits Korus, Jemnas dēls, tas vārtu sargs pret rītiem, bija iecelts pār tām dāvanām, ko Dievam deva no laba prāta, ka tam bija dot Tā Kunga cilājamo upuri un tās vissvētās dāvanas.
15 Eden, Miniamin, Jeshua, Shemaiah, Amariah and Shecaniah faithfully assisted him in the towns where the priests lived. They distributed those things to the groups of their fellow priests; they distributed them to everyone, from the youngest to the oldest.
Un tam bija pie rokas Edens un Minjamins un Ješuūs un Šemaja un Amarija un Šehanija priesteru pilsētās, ar uzticību izdalīt saviem brāļiem pēc viņu kārtām, ir lielam, ir mazam;
16 They also distributed things to the males who were at least 30 years old, those whose names were written on the scrolls where lists of family names were written. They were males who [were allowed to] enter the temple to perform their tasks/work each day, the tasks that each group had been assigned to do.
Arī tiem, kas vīriešu radu rakstos tapa skaitīti, trīs gadus un vairāk veci būdami, - no visiem, kas Tā Kunga namā gāja pie tās ikdienišķās kalpošanas, savā amata kalpošanā pēc savas kārtas,
17 The names of the priests were on the scrolls where their clans’ names were written. They also distributed things to groups of [other] descendants of Levi, those who were at least 20 years old.
Un arī tiem, kas priesteru un levitu radu rakstos tapa skaitīti pēc savu tēvu nama, kas divdesmit un vairāk gadus bija veci, pie viņu kalpošanas pēc savas kārtas,
18 They included all their little children and wives and other sons and daughters whose names were on the scrolls where their clans’ names were written, because they also faithfully had dedicated themselves to Yahweh.
Arī tiem, kas radu rakstos tapa skaitīti ar saviem bērniem, sievām un dēliem un meitām visā draudzē, jo tie svētījās ar uzticību svētai kalpošanai.
19 [Hezekiah] also appointed other men to distribute portions of those offerings to the priests and other descendants of Levi who were living in the pasturelands around the towns in Judah. But they gave things only to those who were descendants of Aaron [the first Supreme Priest], whose names were on the scrolls containing the names of their clans.
Un Ārona bērniem, priesteriem, uz tīrumiem visu viņu pilsētu apgabalos bija vīri, ar vārdu noteikti, daļu dot visiem priesteriem un radurakstos ierakstītiem levitiem no vīriešu kārtas.
20 That is what Hezekiah did throughout Judah. He always faithfully did things that Yahweh his God considered to be right and good.
Un tā Hizkija darīja pa visu Jūdu, un darīja, kas bija labi un pareizi un tiesa Tā Kunga, viņa Dieva priekšā.
21 In everything that he did for the worship in the temple, and as he obeyed God’s laws and commands, he tried to find out what his God wanted, and he worked energetically. So he was successful.
Un visu darbu, ko viņš iesāka pie Dieva nama kalpošanas un pēc bauslības un likuma, savu Dievu meklēdams, to viņš darīja no visas sirds, un viņam labi izdevās.
