< 2 Chronicles 32 >

1 After these things and these acts of faithfulness, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, came and entered Judah. He camped to attack the fortified cities, which he intended to capture for himself.
Pēc šīm lietām un šī ticības darba Sanheribs, Asīrijas ķēniņš, nāca un cēlās pret Jūdu un apmetās pret tām stiprām pilsētām un domāja tās raut pie sevis.
2 When Hezekiah saw that Sennacherib had come and that he intended to fight against Jerusalem,
Kad nu Hizkija redzēja, ka Sanheribs atnāca un bija apņēmies pret Jeruzālemi karot,
3 he consulted with his leaders and his powerful men to stop up the waters of the springs that were outside the city; they helped him do so.
Tad viņš sprieda ar saviem lielkungiem un varoņiem, aiztaisīt avotu ūdeņus ārpus pilsētas, un tie tam palīdzēja.
4 So many people gathered together and stopped up all the springs and the stream that was flowing through the middle of the land. They said, “Why should the kings of Assyria come and find a lot of water?”
Un daudz ļaužu sapulcējās, kas visus avotus aiztaisīja, arī to upi, kas vidū caur zemi tecēja, jo tie sacīja: kāpēc lai Asiriešu ķēniņi nākdami atrod daudz ūdens?
5 Hezekiah took courage and built up all the wall that was broken down. He built the towers higher, and also the other wall outside. He also strengthened the Millo in the city of David, and he made large amounts of weapons and shields.
Un viņš ņēmās drošu prātu un uztaisīja visu mūri, kur tas bija plīsis, un to uzvilka līdz torņiem, un ārā viņš taisīja vēl citu mūri un nostiprināja Millu Dāvida pilsētā, un taisīja daudz ieročus un bruņas.
6 He placed military commanders over the people. He gathered them together to him in the broad place at the city gate and spoke encouragingly to them. He said,
Un viņš iecēla kara virsniekus pār tiem ļaudīm un tos sapulcināja pie sevis laukā pie pilsētas vārtiem un tiem piekodināja un sacīja:
7 “Be strong and of good courage. Do not be afraid or discouraged because of the king of Assyria and all the army that is with him, for someone is with us who is greater than those with him.
Esiet stipri un ņematies drošu prātu, nebīstaties un neizbaiļojaties priekš Asiriešu ķēniņa, nedz priekš visiem tiem pulkiem, kas pie viņa, jo pie mums ir vairāk, nekā pie viņa.
8 With him is only an arm of flesh, but with us is Yahweh, our God, to help us, and to fight our battles.” Then the people comforted themselves with the words of Hezekiah, king of Judah.
Ar viņu ir miesas elkonis, bet ar mums ir Tas Kungs, mūsu Dievs, mums palīdzēt un vest mūsu karus. Un tie ļaudis paļāvās uz Hizkijas, Jūda ķēniņa, vārdiem.
9 After this, Sennacherib, king of Assyria, sent his servants to Jerusalem (now he was in front of Lachish, and all his army was with him), to Hezekiah, king of Judah, and to all of Judah who were in Jerusalem. He said,
Pēc tam Sanheribs, Asīrijas ķēniņš, sūtīja savus kalpus uz Jeruzālemi (bet viņš pats bija pie Laķisa un pie viņa bija viss viņa valsts spēks) pie Hizkijas, Jūda ķēniņa, un pie visas Jūdu cilts, kas bija Jeruzālemē, un lika sacīt:
10 “This is what Sennacherib, king of Assyria, says: What are you relying on in order to endure a siege in Jerusalem?
Tā saka Sanheribs, Asīrijas ķēniņš: uz ko jūs paļaujaties, palikdami ieslēgti Jeruzālemē?
11 Is not Hezekiah misleading you, that he may give you over to die by famine and by thirst, when he tells you, 'Yahweh our God will rescue us from the hand of the king of Assyria'?
Vai Hizkija jūs nepiekrāpj un jūs nenodod nāvei caur badu un slāpēm, sacīdams: Tas Kungs, mūsu Dievs, mūs atpestīs no Asiriešu ķēniņa rokas?
12 Has not this same Hezekiah taken away his high places and his altars and commanded Judah and Jerusalem, 'On one altar you must worship, and on it you must burn your sacrifices'?
Vai šis nav tas Hizkija, kas viņa kalnus un altārus nopostījis un uz Jūdu un Jeruzālemi runājis un sacījis: viena altāra priekšā jums būs pielūgt un uz tā kvēpināt?
13 Do you not know what I and my ancestors have done to all the peoples of the other lands? Were the gods of the peoples of the surrounding lands able in any way to rescue their land from my power?
Vai nezināt, ko es un mani tēvi esam darījuši visām pasaules tautām? Vai pasaules tautu dievi varēja izglābt savas zemes no manas rokas?
14 Among all the gods of those nations that my ancestors completely destroyed, was there any god who could rescue his people out of my hand? Why should your God be able to rescue you from my power?
Kurš ir no visiem šo tautu dieviem, ko mani tēvi izdeldējuši, kas savus ļaudis varējis izglābt no manas rokas, ka jūsu Dievs jūs izglābtu no manas rokas?
15 Now do not let Hezekiah deceive you or persuade you in this way. Do not believe him, for no god of any nation or kingdom has been able to rescue his people out of my hand, or out of the hand of my ancestors. How much less will your God rescue you from my hand?”
Nu tad, lai Hizkija jūs nepieviļ, un neliekaties tā pārrunāties un neticat viņam. Jo ja nevienas citas tautas un valsts dievs nav varējis izglābt savus ļaudis no manas rokas un no manu tēvu rokas, tad jūsu Dievs ne tik jūs neizglābs no manas rokas.
16 Sennacherib's servants spoke even more against Yahweh God and against his servant Hezekiah.
Un viņa kalpi runāja vēl vairāk pret Dievu, To Kungu, un pret Hizkiju, viņa kalpu.
17 Sennacherib also wrote letters in order to mock Yahweh, the God of Israel, and to speak against him. He said, “As the gods of the nations of the lands have not rescued their people out of my hand, so the God of Hezekiah will not rescue his people out of my hand.”
Viņš rakstīja arī grāmatas, To Kungu, Israēla Dievu, zaimodams un pret viņu tā runādams un sacīdams: tā kā pasaules tautu dievi nav izglābuši savus ļaudis no manas rokas, tāpat arī Hizkijas Dievs Savus ļaudis neizglābs no manas rokas.
18 They cried out in the language of the Jews to the people of Jerusalem who were on the wall, to frighten them and trouble them, in order that they might capture the city.
Un tie sauca ar stipru balsi Jūdiski pret Jeruzālemes ļaudīm, kas uz mūra bija, tos izbiedēt un iztrūcināt, ka pilsētu varētu ieņemt.
19 They spoke of the God of Jerusalem as they had spoken of the gods of the other peoples of the earth, which are merely the work of men's hands.
Un tie runāja pret Jeruzālemes Dievu tāpat, kā pret pasaules tautu dieviem, kas ir cilvēku roku darbs.
20 Hezekiah, the king, and Isaiah son of Amoz, the prophet, prayed because of this matter and he cried out to heaven.
Bet ķēniņš Hizkija un pravietis Ezaīja, Amoca dēls, lūdza par to un sauca uz debesīm.
21 Yahweh sent an angel, who killed the fighting men, the commanders, and the officers of the king in the camp. So Sennacherib returned to his own land with shame on his face. When he had gone into the house of his god, some of his own children killed him there with the sword.
Un Tas Kungs sūtīja eņģeli, kas nomaitāja visus varenos karavīrus un lielkungus un virsniekus Asīrijas ķēniņa lēģerī, ka tas ar kaunu atkal griezās atpakaļ uz savu zemi. Un kad viņš sava dieva namā gāja, tad tie, kas no viņa miesām bija cēlušies, viņu nokāva ar zobenu.
22 In this way, Yahweh saved Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib, the king of Assyria, and from the hand of all others, and gave them rest on every side.
Tā Tas Kungs atpestīja Hizkiju un Jeruzālemes iedzīvotājus no Sanheriba, Asiriešu ķēniņa, rokas un no visu citu rokas un tos pasargāja visapkārt.
23 Many were bringing offerings to Yahweh in Jerusalem, and precious gifts to Hezekiah king of Judah, so that he was lifted up in the eyes of all nations from that time forward.
Un daudzi nesa dāvanas Tam Kungam uz Jeruzālemi un dārgas lietas Hizkijam, Jūda ķēniņam, tā ka viņš pēc tam bija paaugstināts visu tautu priekšā.
24 In those days Hezekiah was sick to the point of dying. He prayed to Yahweh, who spoke to him and gave him a sign that he would be healed.
Tanī laikā Hizkija palika slims uz miršanu un tas lūdza To Kungu, un Viņš uz to runāja un tam deva vienu brīnuma zīmi.
25 But Hezekiah did not pay back Yahweh for the help given to him, for his heart was lifted up. So anger came on him, and on Judah and Jerusalem.
Bet Hizkija neatmaksāja tā, kā viņam bija labi darīts, jo viņa sirds sāka lepoties, tāpēc nāca liela dusmība pār viņu un pār Jūdu un Jeruzālemi.
26 Nevertheless, Hezekiah later humbled himself for the pride of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that Yahweh's anger did not come on them during Hezekiah's days.
Tad Hizkija pazemojās savas sirds lepnības dēļ ar Jeruzālemes iedzīvotājiem, tāpēc Tā Kunga bardzība pār viņiem nenāca, kamēr, Hizkija dzīvoja.
27 Hezekiah had very many riches and much honor. He provided himself with storerooms for silver, gold, precious stones, and for spices, as well as for shields and for all kinds of valuable objects.
Un Hizkijam bija ļoti daudz bagātības un goda un viņš sev taisīja mantu kambarus sudrabam un zeltam un dārgiem akmeņiem un dārgām zālēm un priekšturamām bruņām un visādiem dārgiem rīkiem,
28 He also had storehouses for the harvest of grain, new wine, and oil, and stalls for all kinds of animals. He also had flocks in their pens.
Un klētis lauku augļiem, labībai, vīnam un eļļai un kūtis visādiem lopiem un laidarus ganāmiem pulkiem.
29 In addition, he provided himself with cities and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance, for God had given him very much wealth.
Viņš sev arī uztaisīja pilsētas, un tam bija avis un vērši lielā pulkā; jo Dievs tam deva ļoti lielu mantu.
30 It was this same Hezekiah who also stopped up the upper spring of the waters of Gihon, and who brought them straight down on the west side of the city of David. Hezekiah succeeded in all his projects.
Un šis Hizkija aiztaisīja Ģiona ūdens augšizteku un to vadīja uz leju pret vakara pusi uz Dāvida pilsētu, un Hizkijam viss viņa darbs laimējās.
31 However, in the matter of the ambassadors of the princes of Babylon, who sent to him to ask questions of those who knew, about the miraculous sign that had been done in the land, God left him to himself, in order to test him, and to know all that was in his heart.
Bet kad Bābeles lielkungi, kas pie viņa bija sūtīti, nāca vaicāt pēc tās brīnuma zīmes, kas tai zemē bija notikusi, tad Dievs viņu tā atstāja, ka to kārdināja, lai taptu zināms, kas būtu viņa sirdī.
32 As for the other matters concerning Hezekiah, including his actions of covenant loyalty, you can see that they are written in the vision of the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz, and in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
Un kas vēl stāstāms par Hizkiju un viņa dievbijību, redzi, tas rakstīts pravieša Jesajas, Amoca dēla, parādīšanā un Jūda un Israēla ķēniņu grāmatā.
33 Hezekiah slept with his ancestors, and they buried him on the hill of the tombs of the descendants of David. All Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem honored him at his death. Manasseh his son became king in his place.
Un Hizkija aizmiga pie saviem tēviem, un to apraka Dāvida bērnu augstākā kapu vietā, un visa Jūda valsts un Jeruzālemes iedzīvotāji tam parādīja godu, kad tas bija nomiris, un viņa dēls Manasus palika par ķēniņu viņa vietā.
