Pirmā Ķēniņu 21
1 Un pēc tam notikās, ka Nābatam, tam Jezreēlietim, bija vīna dārzs Jezreēlē, sānis Ahaba, Samarijas ķēniņa, pilij.
King Ahab had a palace in Jezreel [city]. Near the palace was a vineyard owned by a man from that city whose name was Naboth.
2 Un Ahabs runāja ar Nābatu sacīdams: dod man savu vīna dārzu, man par sakņu dārzu, jo tas ir tuvu pie mana nama, un es tev viņa vietā došu labāku vīna dārzu, nekā tas ir; vai ja tev patīk, es tev to aizmaksāšu ar naudu.
One day, Ahab [went to] Naboth and said to him, “Your vineyard is close to my palace. I would like to buy it, so that I can plant some vegetables there. In exchange, I will give you a better vineyard [somewhere else], or if you prefer, I will pay you for your vineyard.”
3 Bet Nābats sacīja uz Ahabu: lai Tas Kungs mani pasargā, ka es tev atdotu savu tēvu mantojumu.
But Naboth replied, “That land belonged to my ancestors, [so I want to keep it]. I hope that Yahweh will never allow me to give that land to you!”
4 Tad Ahabs saīdzis un dusmīgs nāca mājās tā vārda dēļ, ko Nābats, tas Jezreēlietis, uz viņu bija runājis sacīdams: es tev nedošu savu tēvu mantojumu. Un viņš metās gultā, apgriezās uz otru pusi un neēda maizes.
So Ahab became very sullen and angry because of what Naboth had said. He went home and lay down on his bed. He turned his face toward the wall, and he refused to eat anything.
5 Tad Izebele, viņa sieva, pie tā nāca un ar to runāja: par ko tavs prāts tāds saīdzis un tu maizes neēdi?
His wife Jezebel came in and asked him, “Why are you so depressed? Why are you refusing to eat anything?”
6 Un viņš uz to sacīja: es runāju ar Nābatu, to Jezreēlieti, un uz to sacīju: dod man savu vīna dārzu par naudu, vai ja tu gribi, es tev došu citu vīna dārzu tai vietā. Bet tas sacīja: es tev nedošu savu vīna dārzu.
Ahab replied, “I talked to Naboth, that man from Jezreel. I told him that [I wanted] his vineyard. [I said, ] ‘I will buy it from you, or I will give you another vineyard for it.’ But he refused [to let me have it].”
7 Tad Izebele, viņa sieva, uz to sacīja: “Tu, vai tāda tava valdīšana pār Israēli? Celies, ēd maizi, un lai tava sirds ir mierā! Es tev dabūšu Nābata, tā Jezreēlieša, vīna dārzu.”
His wife replied, “You are [RHQ] the king of Israel, [so you can get whatever you want] Get up, and eat some food and do not worry [about what Naboth said]. I will get Naboth’s vineyard for you.”
8 Un tā rakstīja grāmatas Ahaba vārdā un tās aizzieģelēja ar viņa gredzenu, un sūtīja tās grāmatas pie tiem vecajiem un pie tiem cienīgiem viņa pilsētā, kas pie Nābata dzīvoja.
Then Jezebel wrote some letters, and she signed Ahab’s name on them. She used his official seal to seal them. Then she sent them to the older leaders and other important men who lived in Naboth’s town.
9 Un tā rakstīja tais grāmatās šos vārdus: izsauciet gavēni un sēdinājiet Nābatu augstā vietā ļaužu priekšā.
This is what she wrote in the letters: “Proclaim a day when all the people will [gather together and] (fast/abstain from eating food). Give to Naboth an important place to sit among them.
10 Un stādiet tam pretim divus netiklus vīrus, kas pret viņu dod liecību un saka: tu Dievu un ķēniņu esi zaimojis, un izvediet to un nomētājiet to akmeņiem, ka tas mirst.
Then find two men who always cause trouble. Give them places to sit opposite/facing him. Tell these men to testify that they heard Naboth say things that criticized God and the king. Then take Naboth out of the city and kill him by throwing stones at him.”
11 Un viņa pilsētas vīri, tie vecaji un cienīgie, kas viņa pilsētā dzīvoja, darīja, kā Izebele tiem bija sacījusi, kā tanīs grāmatās bija rakstīts, ko viņa tiem bija sūtījusi.
The leaders [received the letters and] did what Jezebel had written in the letters for them to do.
12 Un tie izsauca gavēni un sēdināja Nābatu ļaužu priekšā.
They declared a day on which the people would all (fast/abstain from food). And they gave Naboth a seat in a place where honored people sat, in front of the people.
13 Tad divi netikli vīri nāca un stājās viņa priekšā, un tie netiklie vīri deva liecību pret Nābatu ļaužu priekšā un sacīja: “Nābats Dievu un ķēniņu zaimojis.” Un tie to izveda no pilsētas ārā un to nomētāja akmeņiem, ka tas mira.
Two men who always caused trouble sat opposite/facing Naboth. While everyone was listening, they stated that they had heard Naboth say things that criticized God and the king. So the people seized Naboth. They took him outside the city and killed him [by throwing] stones at him.
14 Tad tie sūtīja pie Izebeles un lika sacīt: Nābats akmeņiem nomētāts un miris.
Then those leaders sent a message to Jezebel, saying “We have executed Naboth.”
15 Kad nu Izebele dzirdēja, ka Nābats akmeņiem bija nomētāts un miris, tad Izebele sacīja uz Ahabu: “Celies, ņem Nābata, tā Jezreēlieša, vīna dārzu, ko viņš tev liedzies dot par naudu, jo Nābats nav vairs dzīvs, bet miris.”
When Jezebel found out that Naboth had been killed, she told Ahab, “Naboth is dead. Now you can go and take possession of the vineyard that he refused to sell to you.”
16 Kad nu Ahabs dzirdēja, ka Nābats bija miris, tad Ahabs cēlās, noiet uz Nābata, tā Jezreēlieša, vīna dārzu, to paņemt.
When Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, he got up and went to the vineyard to claim that he now owned it.
17 Tad Tā Kunga vārds notika uz Eliju no Tizbes tā:
Then Yahweh spoke to Elijah the prophet. He said,
18 “Celies, ej Ahabam, Israēla ķēniņam, pretī, kas ir Samarijā, redzi, viņš ir Nābata vīna dārzā, turp viņš ir nogājis, to paņemt.
“Go to Samaria and talk to Ahab, the king of Israel. He is in the vineyard of a man named Naboth. He has gone there to claim that he now owns it.
19 Un runā uz viņu un saki: tā saka Tas Kungs: vai tu neesi nokāvis un arī paņēmis? Tad tev uz viņu tā būs runāt un sacīt: tā saka Tas Kungs: tai vietā, kur suņi laizījuši Nābata asinis, tur suņi arī laizīs tavas asinis, tiešām tavas.”
Tell Ahab that this is what I, Yahweh, say to him: ‘You have murdered Naboth and taken his land.’ So I am telling you this: ‘In the same place where [Naboth died and] dogs came and licked up Naboth’s blood, [you will die and] the dogs will lick up your blood, too!’”
20 Tad Ahabs sacīja uz Eliju: “Vai tu, mans ienaidnieks, mani esi atradis? Un tas sacīja: “Es tevi esmu atradis, tāpēc ka tu sevi esi pārdevies, ļaunu darīt priekš Tā Kunga acīm.
So when Elijah met with Ahab, Ahab said to him, “You, my enemy, have found me!” [RHQ] Elijah answered, “Yes, I have found you. You have never stopped doing the things that Yahweh says are wrong.
21 Redzi, Es vedīšu nelaimi pār tevi un atmetīšu tavus pēcnākamos un izdeldēšu no Ahaba ikvienu, kas pie sienas mīž, to mazo un to lielo iekš Israēla.
So this is what Yahweh says to you: ‘I will soon get rid of you. I will kill you, and I will also kill every male in your household, including those who are slaves and those who are not slaves.
22 Un Es darīšu tavu namu tāpat kā Jerobeama, Nebata dēla, namu, un kā Baešas, Ahijas dēla, namu, tās kaitināšanas dēļ, ar ko tu Mani esi kaitinājis un ka tu Israēli esi pavedis uz grēkiem.
Your family will all be killed, just like the family of King Jeroboam and like the family of King Baasha were killed. I will get rid of you because you have caused me to become very angry, and you have also led the Israeli people to sin.’
23 Un par Izebeli Tas Kungs arī runāja un sacīja: “Suņiem Izebeli būs ēst pie Jezreēles mūriem.”
Yahweh has also told me that [your wife] Jezebel [will be killed, and] dogs in Jezreel will eat her corpse.
24 Kas no Ahaba mirst pilsētā, to ēdīs suņi, un kas mirst laukā, to ēdīs putni apakš debess.”
The [dead bodies of the] members of your family who die in this city [will not be buried, they] will be eaten by dogs, and [the corpses of] those who die in the fields will be eaten by vultures.”
25 (Tāds kā Ahabs neviens nav bijis, kas sevi bija pārdevies, ļaunu darīt Tā Kunga acīs, jo viņa sieva viņu tā paveda.
There was no man no man like Ahab who always did things that Yahweh considered to be evil. His wife Jezebel incited/urged him to do [many of] those things.
26 Un viņš darīja daudz negantības, staigādams pakaļ elkadieviem, tā kā bija darījuši Amorieši, ko Tas Kungs bija izdzinis Israēla bērnu priekšā.)
The most abominable/detestable thing that Ahab did was to worship idols, just like the Amor people-group had done. And that is why Yahweh took the Amor people’s land from them and gave it to the Israelis.
27 Kad nu Ahabs šos vārdus dzirdēja, tad viņš saplēsa savas drēbes un uzvilka maisus uz savu miesu un gavēja un gulēja maisā un staigāja apkārt klusu.
After Elijah finished talking to Ahab, Ahab tore his clothes [to show that he was sorry for all the sins that he had committed]. He put on rough clothes that were made from sacks, and he refused to eat anything. He even wore those rough clothes made from sacks when he slept, to show that he was sorry.
28 Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz Eliju no Tizbes un sacīja:
Then Yahweh said this to Elijah:
29 “Vai tu neesi redzējis, kā Ahabs Manā priekšā pazemojies? Tāpēc nu, ka tas Manā priekšā pazemojies, tad Es to nelaimi nevedīšu pār to viņa dienās; viņa dēla dienās Es vedīšu to nelaimi pār viņa namu.”
“I have seen [RHQ] that Ahab is now very sorry for all the evil things that he has done. So the things that I promised to do to his [family] will not happen while he is still alive. I will cause them to happen after his son becomes king. Then those things will happen to his family.” [MTY]
