Pirmā Ķēniņu 19
1 Un Ahabs teica Izebelei visu, ko Elija bija darījis, un visu, kā viņš tos praviešus ar zobenu bija nokāvis.
When Ahab got home, he told [his wife] Jezebel what Elijah had done. He told her that Elijah had killed all the prophets of Baal.
2 Tad Izebele sūtīja vēstnesi pie Elijas un lika sacīt: lai dievi man šā un tā dara, ja es rīt ap šo laiku tā nedaru tavai dvēselei, kā visām viņu dvēselēm (noticis).
So Jezebel sent this message to Elijah: “By this time tomorrow I will have [killed] you, just like you [killed all those prophets of Baal]. If I do not do that, I hope the gods will kill me.”
3 Kad viņš to redzēja, tad viņš cēlās un aizgāja savas dzīvības pēc, un nonāca Bēršebā, kas ir iekš Jūda, un atstāja tur savu puisi.
When Elijah received [her message], he was afraid. So [taking his servant with him], he fled in order that he would not be killed. He went [far south] to Beersheba, in Judah. He left his servant there.
4 Bet pats gāja tuksnesī dienas gājumu un nāca un apsēdās apakš paegles krūma un vēlējās, ka viņa dvēsele mirtu, un sacīja: nu ir gan! Ņem nu, Kungs, manu dvēseli, jo es neesmu labāks nekā mani tēvi.
Then he went by himself further [south] into the desert. He walked all day. He sat down under a broom tree and prayed that [Yahweh] would allow him to die. He said, “Yahweh, I’ve had enough. So allow me to die, because for me to live is no better than [being with] my ancestors [who have died].”
5 Un viņš apgūlās un aizmiga apakš tā paegles krūma. Un redzi, eņģelis viņu aizskāra un uz viņu sacīja: celies un ēd!
Then he lay down under the broom tree and slept. But while he was sleeping, an angel touched him and [woke him up and] said to him, “Get up and eat some food!”
6 Un viņš skatījās atpakaļ, un redzi, viņa galvas galā bija karaša uz oglēm cepta un krūze ar ūdeni. Un viņš ēda un dzēra un atkal apgūlās.
Elijah looked around and saw some bread which had been baked on hot stones, and he also saw a jar of water. So he ate some bread and drank some water and lay down [to sleep] again.
7 Un Tā Kunga eņģelis nāca atkal otrā reizē un to aizskāra un sacīja: celies, ēd, jo tev ir garš ceļš priekšā.
Then the angel [who had been sent by] Yahweh came again and touched him, and said, “Get up and eat some [more] food, because you need [more strength] to go on a long journey.”
8 Tā viņš cēlās un ēda un dzēra un gāja ar šās barības spēku četrdesmit dienas un četrdesmit naktis līdz Dieva kalnam Horebam.
So he got up and ate and drank some more, and because of doing that, he got enough strength to enable him to travel for forty days and nights to Sinai Mountain, the mountain [that was dedicated to] God.
9 Un viņš tur iegāja vienā alā un palika tur pa nakti. Un redzi, Tā Kunga vārds uz to notika un viņš uz to sacīja: ko tu še dari, Elija?
He went into a cave there and slept there that night. [The next morning, ] Yahweh said to him “Elijah, why are you here?”
10 Un tas sacīja: degt esmu dedzis Tā Kunga, Tā Dieva Cebaot, labad; jo Israēla bērni Tavu derību atstājuši un Tavus altārus nolauzījuši un Tavus praviešus ar zobenu nokāvuši, un es viens esmu atlicis, un tie meklē, man paņemt dzīvību.
Elijah replied, “I have zealously served you, Yahweh, God Almighty. But the Israeli people have broken the agreement that they made with you. They have torn down your altars, and they have killed all of your prophets. I am the only one whom they have not killed, and now they are trying to kill me, too. [So I am running away from them].”
11 Un viņš sacīja: izej un nostājies kalnā Tā Kunga priekšā. Un redzi, Tas Kungs gāja garām, un liela briesmīga vētra, kas kalnus saplosīja un klintis sašķēla, Tā Kunga priekšā, - bet Tas Kungs nebija tai vētrā. Un pēc tās vētras bija zemes trīcēšana, bet Tas Kungs nebija tai zemes trīcēšanā.
Yahweh said to him, “Go out and stand in front of me on this mountain while I pass by.” [Suddenly] a strong windstorm struck the mountain. As a result, rocks were loosened from the mountainside. But Yahweh was not in the wind. Then there was an earthquake, but Yahweh was not in the earthquake.
12 Un pēc tās zemes trīcēšanas nāca uguns, bet Tas Kungs nebija tai ugunī. Un pēc tā uguns nāca klusa un lēna vēsma.
Then there was a fire, but Yahweh was not in the fire. Then there was a sound like someone whispering quietly.
13 Un kad Elija to dzirdēja, tad viņš apklāja savu vaigu ar savu mēteli un izgāja un stāvēja alas priekšā, un redzi, balss uz to nāca un sacīja: ko tu še dari, Elija?
When Elijah heard that, he wrapped his cloak around his face. He went out of the cave and stood at its entrance. And he heard Yahweh speaking to him, saying again, “Elijah, why are you here?”
14 Un viņš sacīja: degt esmu dedzis Tā Kunga, Tā Dieva Cebaot, labad; jo Israēla bērni Tavu derību atstājuši, Tavus altārus nolauzījuši un Tavus praviešus ar zobenu nokāvuši, un es viens esmu atlicis, un tie meklē, man paņemt dzīvību.
He replied again, “I have zealously served you, Yahweh, God Almighty. But the Israeli people have broken the agreement that they made with you. They have torn down your altars, and they have killed all of your prophets. I am the only one whom they have not killed, and now they are trying to kill me, too. [So I am running away from them].”
15 Un Tas Kungs uz to sacīja: ej un griezies atpakaļ pa savu ceļu, pa tuksnesi uz Damasku, un ieej un svaidi Azaēli par ķēniņu pār Sīriju.
Then Yahweh told him, “Go back to the desert near Damascus. When you arrive there, anoint [with olive oil] a man named Hazael, [to appoint him] to be the king of Syria.
16 Un Jeū, Nimšus dēlu, svaidi par ķēniņu pār Israēli, un Elišu, Šafata dēlu no AbelMeolas, svaidi par pravieti savā vietā.
Then anoint Jehu, the son of Nimshi, to be the king of Israel, and also anoint Elisha the son of Shaphat, from Abel-Meholah [town], to become my prophet after you are dead.
17 Un notiks, kas no Azaēļa zobena izglābsies, to nokaus Jeūs, un kas no Jeūs zobena izglābsies, to nokaus Eliša.
Hazael’s army [will kill many people, and] those who escape from [being killed by] his army will be killed by Jehu’s [army], and those who escape from [being killed by] Jehu’s army will be killed by Elisha.
18 Un es atlicināšu iekš Israēla septiņus tūkstošus, visus, kas savus ceļus nav locījuši Baāla priekšā, un visus, kas ar savu muti viņu nav skūpstījuši.
But [you need to know that] there are still 7,000 people in Israel who have never bowed to [worship] Baal or kissed his [idol].”
19 Tad viņš no turienes aizgāja un atrada Elišu, Šafata dēlu, un tas ara; divpadsmit jūgi vēršu bija viņa priekšā, un viņš pats bija pie tā divpadsmitā, un Elija piegāja pie viņa un uzmeta viņam savu mēteli.
So Elijah went [to Syria] and found Elisha as he was plowing a field with a team of oxen. There were eleven other men who were in front of him, plowing with teams of oxen in the same field. Elijah went to Elisha, and took off his own coat and put it on Elisha, [to show Elisha that he wanted him to take his place as a prophet. Then he started to walk away].
20 Tad viņš atstāja tos vēršus un skrēja Elijam pakaļ un sacīja: ļauj man jel skūpstīt savu tēvu un savu māti, tad es iešu tev pakaļ. Un viņš uz to sacīja: ej un griezies atpakaļ, jo(piemini) ko es tev esmu darījis?
Elisha left the oxen standing there and ran after Elijah, and said to him, “I will go with you, but first let me kiss my parents goodbye.” Elijah replied, “Okay, go home. But do not forget why I have [given my cloak] to you!”
21 Un viņš griezās atpakaļ un ņēma vienu jūgu vēršu un tos nokāva un vārīja viņu gaļu ar viņu rīku kokiem un deva to tiem ļaudīm ēst. Pēc viņš cēlās un gāja Elijam pakaļ un tam kalpoja.
So Elisha went back [to his oxen]. He killed them [and cut them in pieces] and used the wood from the plow to build a fire to roast the meat. He distributed the meat to the other people [in his town], and they all ate some. Then he went with Elijah and became his helper.
