< 2 Kings 16 >
1 When Pekah had been ruling Israel for almost 17 years, Ahaz, the son of Jotham, became the king of Judah.
Pekas, Remalijas dēla, septiņpadsmitā gadā Ahazs, Jotama, Jūda ķēniņa, dēls, palika par ķēniņu.
2 He was 20 years old when he became the king [of Judah]. He ruled from Jerusalem for 16 years. He did not do things that pleased Yahweh his God, good things like his ancestor King David had done.
Ahazs bija divdesmit gadus vecs, kad palika par ķēniņu, un valdīja sešpadsmit gadus Jeruzālemē, un nedarīja, kas Tam Kungam, viņa Dievam, patika, kā viņa tēvs Dāvids.
3 Instead, he was as sinful as the kings of Israel had been. He even sacrificed his son as an offering to idols. That was worse than the disgusting things that the people who previously lived there had done, people whom Yahweh had expelled as the Israelis were advancing through the land.
Jo viņš staigāja pa Israēla ķēniņu ceļiem. Viņš arī savam dēlam lika caur uguni iet pēc pagānu negantības, ko Tas Kungs Israēla bērnu priekšā bija izdzinis.
4 Ahaz offered sacrifices and burned incense [to honor Yahweh] on the tops of many hills and under many [HYP] big trees, [instead of in Jerusalem as Yahweh had commanded].
Viņš upurēja un kvēpināja arī pa kalniem un pakalniem un apakš visiem zaļiem kokiem.
5 While he was the king of Judah, King Rezin of Assyria and King Pekah of Israel [came with their armies] and attacked Jerusalem. They surrounded the city, but they could not conquer it.
Tad Recins, Sīriešu ķēniņš, ar Peku, Remalijas dēlu, Israēla ķēniņu, cēlās karā pret Jeruzālemi, un apmeta lēģeri ap Ahazu, bet to nevarēja pārvarēt.
6 At that time the [army of the] king of Edom expelled the people of Judah who were living in Elath [city]. Some of the people of Edom started to live there, and they are still living there.
Tanī laikā Recins, Sīriešu ķēniņš, atdabūja Elatu uz Sīriešu pusi, un izdzina Jūdus no Elatas, un Sīrieši nāca uz Elatu un tur dzīvoja līdz šai dienai.
7 King Ahaz sent messengers to King Tiglath-Pileser of Assyria, to tell this message to him: “I promise that I will completely do what you tell me to do, [as though] I [was] your son. Please come and rescue us from the armies of Syria and Israel who are attacking my country.”
Bet Ahazs sūtīja vēstnešus pie Tiglat Pilezera, Asiriešu ķēniņa, un lika sacīt: es esmu tavs kalps un tavs dēls, nāc šurp un atpestī mani no Sīriešu ķēniņa rokas un no Israēla ķēniņa rokas, kas pret mani cēlušies.
8 Ahaz took the silver and gold that was in the palace and in the temple and sent it to Assyria to be a present/gift for the king of Assyria.
Un Ahazs ņēma to sudrabu un zeltu, kas atradās Tā Kunga namā un ķēniņa nama mantās, un sūtīja dāvanas Asiriešu ķēniņam.
9 So Tiglath-Pileser did what Ahaz requested. His army marched to Damascus and captured it, and they took the people of Damascus as prisoners to live in the capital city of Assyria, and executed [King] Rezin.
Un Asiriešu ķēniņš tam paklausīja, un Asiriešu ķēniņš cēlās pret Damasku un to uzņēma un aizveda tos (iedzīvotājus) uz Kiru un nokāva Recinu.
10 When King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet King Tiglath-Pileser, he saw the altar that was there. So he sent to Uriah, the Supreme Priest [in Jerusalem], a drawing of the altar and a model that was exactly like the altar in Damascus.
Tad ķēniņš Ahazs nāca Tiglat Pilezeram, Asiriešu ķēniņam, pretī uz Damasku un tur redzēja to altāri, kas bija Damaskū, un ķēniņš Ahazs sūtīja priesterim Ūrijam tā altāra līdzību un tēlu, visu tā, kā tas bija taisīts.
11 So Uriah built an altar [in Jerusalem], following the drawing that King Ahaz had sent. Uriah finished the altar before Ahaz returned [to Jerusalem] from Damascus.
Un priesteris Ūrija uztaisīja tādu altāri; itin tādu, kādu ķēniņš Ahazs no Damaskus bija sūtījis, tādu priesteris Ūrija taisīja, kamēr ķēniņš Ahazs no Damaskus pārnāca.
12 When the king returned from Damascus, he saw the altar. He went to it
Kad nu ķēniņš Ahazs no Damaskus pārnāca, tad ķēniņš redzēja to altāri, un ķēniņš gāja pie tā altāra un uz tā upurēja,
13 and burned animal sacrifices and a grain offering on it. He also poured a wine offering on it and threw on it the blood of the offerings to maintain fellowship with God.
Un iededzināja savu dedzināmo upuri un savu ēdamo upuri un izlēja savu dzeramo upuri un slacīja sava pateicības upura asinis uz to altāri.
14 The old bronze altar which had been dedicated long ago to Yahweh was between the new altar and the temple, so Ahaz moved it to the north side of his new altar, [which was bigger than the old altar].
Bet to vara altāri, kas bija Tā Kunga priekšā, to viņš nocēla no tās vietas nama priekšā, starp (savu) altāri un Tā Kunga namu, un to cēla sānis(savam) altārim pret ziemeļa pusi.
15 Then King Ahaz ordered Uriah: “Each morning put on this new altar the sacrifices that will be completely burned, and in the evening put on it the grain offering, along with my offering and the offerings that the people bring, ones that will be completely burned, and my grain offering and the people’s grain and wine offerings. Pour against the sides of the altar the blood of all the animals that are sacrificed. But the old bronze altar will be only for me to use to find out what Yahweh wants me to do.”
Un ķēniņš Ahazs pavēlēja priesterim Ūrijam sacīdams: uz tā lielā altāra tev būs iededzināt rīta dedzināmo upuri un vakara ēdamo upuri, ir ķēniņa dedzināmo upuri un viņa ēdamo upuri, ir visu zemes ļaužu dedzināmo upuri un viņu ēdamo upuri un viņu dzeramo upuri, un tev uz to būs slacināt visas asinis no dedzināmiem upuriem un no kaujamiem upuriem, bet par to vara altāri es apdomāšu, ko es darīšu.
16 So Uriah did what the king commanded him to do.
Un priesteris Ūrija darīja, kā ķēniņš Ahazs bija pavēlējis.
17 King Ahaz told his workers to take off the frames of the carts [that were outside the temple] and to take down the basins that were on them. They also took down the bronze tank from the backs of the bronze [statues of the] oxen and put it on a stone foundation.
Un ķēniņš Ahazs nolauzīja tos sānu galdus no tiem krēsliem un noņēma no viņu virsas tos katlus un nocēla to jūru no tiem vara vēršiem, kas apakš tās bija, un to lika uz akmeņu grīdu.
18 Then to please the king of Assyria, Ahaz had them remove from the temple the roof under which the people walked into the temple on the Sabbath Day, and closed up the private entrance into the temple for the kings of Judah.
Viņš arī pārgrozīja pie Tā Kunga nama tās svētās dienas lieveni, ko tie pie tā nama bija taisījuši, un ķēniņa vārtus no āra puses, Asīrijas ķēniņa labad.
19 [If you want to know about] the other things that Ahaz did, they are written [RHQ] in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
Un kas vēl par Ahazu stāstāms, ko viņš darījis, tas ir rakstīts Jūda ķēniņu laiku grāmatā.
20 Ahaz died [EUP], and he was buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’, where his ancestors had been buried. Then his son Hezekiah became the king.
Un Ahazs aizmiga saviem tēviem pakaļ, un tapa aprakts pie saviem tēviem Dāvida pili, un Hizkija, viņa dēls, palika par ķēniņu viņa vietā.
