Deuteronomy 9
1 “You people of Israel, listen to me! You will soon [HYP] cross the Jordan [River]. In the land that you will enter, there are large cities that have very high walls [around them] that [seem to] [HYP] extend up to the sky. There are people-groups in that land that are more numerous and more powerful than you are.
Klausies, Israēl, tu šodien iesi pār Jardāni, uzvarēt tautas, lielākas un stiprākas, nekā tu esi, lielas un līdz debesīm apstiprinātas pilsētas,
2 Those people are very tall and strong. [Some of them] are giants who are descendants of Anak. You know about them, and you have heard people say that no one [RHQ] can defeat the descendants of Anak.
Lielus un garus ļaudis, Enaka bērnus, par kuriem tu zini un esi dzirdējis: kas var pastāvēt Enaka bērnu priekšā?
3 But I want you to know that Yahweh our God will go ahead of you. He will be like a raging/roaring fire. While you advance, he will defeat and destroy them. As a result, you will quickly be able to expel some of them and kill the others, which is what Yahweh promised that you would do.
Tad tev šodien būs atzīt, ka Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, pats iet tavā priekšā, rijoša uguns, - Viņš pats tos izdeldēs un tos nometīs tavā priekšā, un tu tos izdzīsi un tos steigšus iznīcināsi, itin kā Tas Kungs uz tevi runājis.
4 “After Yahweh our God has expelled them for you, do not say to yourselves, ‘It is because we are righteous that Yahweh has enabled us to capture this land.’ The truth is that it is because the people in that land are wicked that Yahweh will expel them as you advance.
Kad nu Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tos tavā priekšā izdzīs, tad nerunā savā sirdī un nesaki: Tas Kungs manas taisnības dēļ mani ievedis, šo zemi iemantot; jo šo tautu bezdievības dēļ Tas Kungs tos izdzen tavā priekšā.
5 [I say again that] it is not because you are righteous or because you do things that are righteous that you will enter and capture that land. It is because those people-groups are very wicked that Yahweh our God will expel them as you advance, and because he intends to do what he vowed to your ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob that he would do.
Ne tavas taisnības dēļ, nedz tavas sirds skaidrības dēļ tu nenāc iemantot viņu zemi, bet šo tautu bezdievības dēļ Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tos izdzen tavā priekšā un gribēdams apstiprināt to vārdu, ko Tas Kungs zvērējis taviem tēviem Ābrahāmam, Īzakam un Jēkabam.
6 I want you to know that it is not because you are righteous that Yahweh our God is giving you this good/fertile land. I say that because [you are not righteous]; you are a very stubborn [IDM] people.”
Tad nu zini, ka Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev nedod iemantot šo labo zemi tavas taisnības dēļ, jo tu esi stūrgalvīga tauta.
7 “Never forget what your ancestors did in the desert that caused Yahweh our God to become angry. From the day that we left Egypt until the day that we arrived here, you and your ancestors have continually rebelled against him.
Piemini un neaizmirsti, ka tu To Kungu, savu Dievu, ļoti esi apkaitinājis tuksnesī; no tās dienas, kad tu izgāji no Ēģiptes zemes. kamēr jūs esat nonākuši šai vietā, jūs esat pretī turējušies Tam Kungam.
8 Even at Sinai [Mountain] your ancestors caused Yahweh to become angry. Because he was very angry, he was ready to get rid of [all of] them.
Jo Horebā jūs To Kungu ļoti apkaitinājāt un Tas Kungs par jums apskaitās un gribēja jūs izdeldēt,
9 When I climbed the mountain to receive from him the stone tablets on which he had written the Ten Commandments that he was giving to them, I stayed there 40 days and nights, and [during that time] I did not eat or drink anything.
Kad es uzkāpu kalnā, saņemt tos akmens galdiņus, tās derības galdiņus, ko Tas Kungs ar jums bija derējis. Un es paliku četrdesmit dienas un četrdesmit naktis uz tā kalna un neēdu maizi un nedzēru ūdeni,
10 Yahweh gave me the two stone tablets on which he had written [the commandments] with his own fingers. They were the words/commandments that he had spoken to your ancestors from the fire on that mountain, when they were gathered together [at the bottom of the mountain].
Un Tas Kungs man deva tos abus akmens galdiņus, Dieva pirksta aprakstītus, un uz tiem bija visi vārdi, ko Tas Kungs kalnā ar jums bija runājis no uguns vidus sapulces dienā.
11 “At the end of those 40 days and nights, Yahweh gave me those two stone tablets on which he had written those commandments.
Un pēc tām četrdesmit dienām un četrdesmit naktīm Tas Kungs man deva tos abus akmens galdiņus, tos derības galdiņus, un Tas Kungs sacīja uz mani:
12 But then he said to me, ‘Go down the mountain immediately, because [the people whom you are leading], the people whom you led out of Egypt, have committed a terrible sin! They have very quickly done what I commanded them not to do. They have made for themselves a metal statue [of a calf to worship].’
Celies, ej steigšus lejā, jo tavi ļaudis, ko tu izvedis no Ēģiptes zemes, ir apgrēkojušies, tie ir steigšus atkāpušies no tā ceļa, ko Es tiem pavēlējis, - tie sev lējuši tēlu.
13 Then Yahweh said to me, ‘I have been watching these people, and I see that they are very stubborn.
Un Tas Kungs runāja uz mani sacīdams: Es redzu šos ļaudis, un raugi, tie ir stūrgalvīgi ļaudis.
14 So do not try to stop me. I am going to destroy all of them, with the result that no one anywhere will remember (their names [MTY]/that they ever existed). Then I will enable you to become [the ancestor of] a nation that will be more numerous and more powerful than they are.’
Laid mani, Es tos iznīcināšu un izdeldēšu viņu vārdu no pasaules un tevi darīšu par stiprāku un lielāku tautu, nekā tie.
15 So I turned and went down the mountain, carrying in my hands the two stone tablets on which the Ten Commandments were [written]. Fire was burning all over the mountain.
Tad es atgriezies nogāju no tā kalna, un tas kalns dega ar uguni, un tie divi derības galdiņi bija manās abās rokās,
16 I looked, and I was shocked to see that your ancestors had committed a [great] sin against Yahweh. They very quickly had begun to do what Yahweh our God had commanded them not to do. They had [requested Aaron to] make for them [a metal image of] a calf [to worship].
Un es skatījos, un redzi, jūs bijāt apgrēkojušies pret To Kungu, savu Dievu, jūs bijāt sev lējuši teļu, jūs bijāt steigšus atkāpušies no tā ceļa, ko Tas Kungs jums bija pavēlējis.
17 So while they were watching, I lifted up those two stone tablets and threw them [on the ground], and they broke into pieces.
Tad es sagrābu tos abus galdiņus un tos izmetu no savām abām rokām un tos sasitu priekš jūsu acīm,
18 Then I (prostrated myself/lay) on the ground in Yahweh’s presence as I had done before, and I did not eat or drink anything for 40 days and nights. I did that because your ancestors had sinned against Yahweh and caused him to become very angry.
Un nometos priekš Tā Kunga tā kā papriekš, četrdesmit dienas un četrdesmit naktis, es maizi neēdu un ūdeni nedzēru, visu jūsu grēku dēļ, ar ko jūs bijāt apgrēkojušies, ļaunu darīdami Tā Kunga acīs, viņu apkaitinādami.
19 I was afraid/worried that because Yahweh was very angry with them, he would get rid of all of them. [But again I prayed that he would not do that], and again he listened to me [and answered my prayer].
Jo es bijājos par to bardzību un dusmību, ar ko Tas Kungs par jums bija apskaities, jūs izdeldēt; bet Tas Kungs arī to brīdi mani paklausīja.
20 Yahweh was also very angry with Aaron [for making that golden calf] and was ready to kill Aaron. But at the same time I prayed for Aaron also, [and Yahweh answered my prayer].
Un Tas Kungs ļoti dusmojās arī par Āronu un gribēja viņu izdeldēt, bet es to brīdi lūdzu arī par Āronu.
21 Your ancestors had sinned by [requesting Aaron to] make [a metal statue of] a calf. So I took that statue and [I melted it] in a fire and crushed it and ground it into very tiny pieces [HYP]. Then I threw those tiny pieces into the stream that flowed down the mountain.
Bet jūsu grēku, to teļu, ko jūs bijāt taisījuši, to es ņēmu un sadedzināju ar uguni un sagrūdu un samalu, kamēr tas smalks palika par pīšļiem, un viņa pīšļus es iemetu tai upē, kas tek no tā kalna.
22 Your ancestors also caused Yahweh to become very angry [by what they did] at [places which they named] Taberah, Massah, and Kibroth-Hattaavah.
Jūs To Kungu apkaitinājāt arī Tabeērā un Masā un pie tiem kārības kapiem.
23 And when we were at Kadesh-Barnea, Yahweh said to your ancestors, ‘Go up and capture the land that I am about to give to you!’ But they rebelled against him. They did not trust him, and they did not obey what he told [MTY] them to do.
Un kad Tas Kungs jūs izsūtīja no Kādeš Barneas sacīdams: ejat uz augšu un uzņemiet to zemi, ko Es jums esmu devis, tad jūs Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, vārdam turējaties pretī un neticējāt, nedz klausījāt Viņa balsij.
24 Your ancestors rebelled against Yahweh from the first day that I knew them, [in Egypt].
Pārgalvīgi jūs esat bijuši pret To Kungu, kamēr es jūs pazīstu.
25 So, [as I said], I lay on the ground in Yahweh’s presence for 40 days and nights, because Yahweh had said that he would get rid of your ancestors.
Un es nometos Tā Kunga priekšā četrdesmit dienas un četrdesmit naktis, kur biju nometies, tāpēc ka Tas Kungs bija sacījis, ka gribot jūs izdeldēt.
26 And I prayed to Yahweh, saying, ‘Lord God, these people belong to you; do not destroy them. They are people whom you rescued and brought out of Egypt by your very great power. [DOU, MTY]
Bet es pielūdzu To Kungu un sacīju: Kungs, Dievs, neizdeldē Savus ļaudis un Savu īpašumu, ko Tu esi atpestījis caur Savu lielo spēku, ko Tu ar stipru roku esi izvedis no Ēģiptes.
27 Do not forget [what you promised to] Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Please ignore these stubborn and wicked people and the sin that they have committed.
Piemini Savus kalpus, Ābrahāmu, Īzaku un Jēkabu, neuzlūko šo ļaužu pārgalvību, nedz viņu bezdievību, nedz viņu grēkus,
28 If you do not do that, [and if you get rid of them], the people of Egypt will [hear about it and] say that you were not able to bring them into the land that you promised to give to them. They will say that you took them into the desert only to kill them there because you hated them.
Lai tā zeme, no kurienes tu mūs esi izvedis, nesaka: Tas Kungs tos nevarēja ievest tai zemē, par ko Viņš tiem bija runājis, un tādēļ ka Viņš tos ienīdēja, Viņš tos izvedis, lai tos nonāvētu tuksnesī.
29 [Do not forget that] they are your people. [You chose them to] belong to you. You brought them out [from Egypt] by your very great power [DOU, MTY].’”
Tie jau ir Tavi ļaudis un Tavs īpašums, ko Tu esi izvedis caur Savu lielo spēku un caur Savu izstiepto elkoni.
