< Pirmā Ķēniņu 8 >

1 Tad ķēniņš Salamans sapulcināja pie sevis Israēla vecajus un visus cilšu priekšniekus un Israēla bērnu tēvu namu virsniekus Jeruzālemē pie ķēniņa Salamana, pārvest Tā Kunga derības šķirstu no Dāvida pilsētas, - šī ir Ciāna.
Then Solomon summoned before him in Jerusalem the elders of Israel, including all the heads of the tribes and the family leaders of the Israelites. He instructed them to bring up with them the Ark of the Lord's Agreement from Zion, the City of David.
2 Un visi Israēla vīri sapulcējās pie ķēniņa Salamana uz svētkiem Etanim mēnesī, šis ir tas septītais mēnesis.
All the men of Israel assembled before King Solomon at the festival which is held in the seventh month, the month of Ethanim.
3 Un kad visi Israēla vecaji sanāca, tad priesteri ņēma to šķirstu
When all the elders of Israel had gathered, the priests picked up the Ark and brought the Ark of the Lord and the Tent of Meeting with all its holy items.
4 Un nesa Tā Kunga šķirstu un saiešanas telti ar visiem svētiem rīkiem, kas bija teltī, tos priesteri un Leviti nesa.
The priests and Levites carried them up.
5 Un ķēniņš Salamans un visa Israēla draudze, kas pie viņa bija sapulcējusies, gāja viņam līdz šķirsta priekšā, un upurēja avis un vēršus, neizskaitāmu pulku un neizzināmu skaitu.
In front of the Ark, King Solomon and all the congregation of Israel who had gathered there with him sacrificed many, many sheep and bulls—so numerous they couldn't be counted!
6 Tā priesteri nesa Tā Kunga derības šķirstu savā vietā, Dieva nama dziļumā, visusvētajā vietā, apakš ķerubu spārniem.
Then the priests carried the Ark of the Lord's Agreement to its place in the inner sanctuary of the Temple, the Most Holy Place, underneath the wings of the cherubim.
7 Jo tie ķerubi izplēta savus spārnus pār šķirsta vietu, un tie ķerubi apklāja šķirstu un viņa nesamās kārtis no augšienes.
The cherubim spread their wings over the place where the Ark was, covering the Ark and its carrying poles.
8 Un tās nesamās kārtis bija tik garas, ka kāršu gali bija redzami no tās svētās vietas tās visusvētās vietas priekšā, bet ārpusē tās nebija redzamas, un tās tur ir līdz šai dienai.
The poles were so long that the ends could be seen from the Holy Place in front of the inner sanctuary, but not from outside. They are there to this day.
9 Tai šķirstā nebija nekā, kā vien tie abi akmens galdiņi, ko Mozus Horebā bija ielicis, kad Tas Kungs derību derēja ar Israēla bērniem, kad tie izgāja no Ēģiptes zemes.
There was nothing in the Ark apart from the two tablets of stone that Moses had placed in it at Horeb, where the Lord had made an agreement with the Israelites after they came out of the land of Egypt.
10 Kad nu tie priesteri izgāja no tās svētās vietas, tad mākonis piepildīja Tā Kunga namu;
When the priests left the Holy Place, the cloud filled the Temple of the Lord.
11 Un tie priesteri nevarēja stāvēt un kalpot tā mākoņa dēļ. Jo Tā Kunga godība bija piepildījusi Tā Kunga namu.
Due to the cloud, the priests could not stay there to carry out their service, for the glory of the Lord had filled the Lord's Temple.
12 Tad Salamans sacīja: Tas Kungs ir sacījis, ka viņš tumsā gribot dzīvot.
Then Solomon said: “Lord, you said that you would live in the thick cloud.
13 Celt esmu cēlis namu tev par dzīvokli, mājokli, tev mājot mūžīgi.
Now I have built for you a majestic Temple, a place where you may live for ever.”
14 Tad ķēniņš atgrieza savu vaigu un svētīja visu Israēla draudzi, un visa Israēla draudze stāvēja, un viņš sacīja:
The king turned around to the whole assembly of Israel who were standing there, and blessed them,
15 Slavēts lai ir Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs, kas ar Savu muti runājis uz manu tēvu Dāvidu un ar Savu roku to piepildījis, ko Viņš sacījis:
saying, “Praise the Lord, the God of Israel, who by his own power has fulfilled the promise he made to my father David when he said,
16 No tās dienas, kad Es savus Israēla ļaudis esmu izvedis no Ēģiptes, Es nevienu pilsētu neesmu izredzējis starp visām Israēla ciltīm, taisīt namu, lai Mans vārds tur būtu. Bet Dāvidu Es esmu izredzējis, ka tas būtu pār Maniem Israēla ļaudīm.
‘Since the day I brought my people Israel out of Egypt I have not chosen any town of the tribes of Israel as the place to build a Temple to honor me. But I have chosen David as king over my people Israel.’
17 Un manam tēvam Dāvidam gan bija prātā, taisīt namu Tā Kunga, Israēla Dieva, vārdam.
My father David really wanted to build a Temple to honor the Lord, the God of Israel.
18 Bet Tas Kungs sacīja uz manu tēvu Dāvidu: ka tu savā sirdī esi apņēmies, taisīt namu Manam vārdam, to tu gan esi labi darījis, ka tas tavā sirdī.
But the Lord told my father David, ‘You had the desire to build a Temple to honor me, and it was good that you really wanted to do this.
19 Bet tev to namu nebūs taisīt, bet tavam dēlam, kas nāks no taviem gurniem, tas uztaisīs namu Manam vārdam.
But it won't be you who will build this Temple, but your son who is to be born to you—he will build the Temple to honor me.'
20 Un Tas Kungs savu vārdu ir apstiprinājis, ko Viņš runājis. Jo es esmu stājies sava tēva Dāvida vietā, un sēžu uz Israēla goda krēsla, itin kā Tas Kungs runājis, un es esmu uztaisījis namu Tā Kunga, Israēla Dieva, vārdam.
Now the Lord has kept his promise that he made. I have succeeded my father David, and I sit on the throne of Israel, just as the Lord promised. I have built the Temple to honor the Lord, the God of Israel.
21 Un tur esmu taisījis vietu tam šķirstam, kur Tā Kunga derība, ko Viņš derējis ar mūsu tēviem, kad Viņš tos izveda no Ēģiptes zemes.
I have provided a place there for the Ark, which contains the agreement of the Lord that he made with our forefathers when he led them out of the land of Egypt.”
22 Un Salamans stājās Tā Kunga altāra priekšā, visai Israēla draudzei pretī, un izplēta savas rokas pret debesīm un sacīja:
Then Solomon stood in front of the altar of the Lord before the whole assembly of Israel and held out his hands toward heaven.
23 Kungs, Israēla Dievs, neviena tāda Dieva nav kā Tu, ne augšā debesīs, nedz apakšā virs zemes; derību un žēlastību Tu turi Saviem kalpiem, kas Tavā priekšā staigā no visas savas sirds.
He said, “Lord, God of Israel, there is no God like you in heaven above or on earth below. You keep you agreement of trustworthy love with your servants, those who are totally committed to following you.
24 Tu Savam kalpam, manam tēvam Dāvidam, esi turējis, ko tam esi runājis. Ar Savu muti Tu esi runājis un ar Savu roku to piepildījis, tā kā tas šodien ir.
You have kept the promise you made to your servant David, my father. You yourself promised, and by your own power you have fulfilled it today.
25 Un nu Kungs, Israēla Dievs, turi Savam kalpam, manam tēvam Dāvidam, arī to, ko Tu tam vēl esi runājis sacīdams: tev netrūks vīra Manā priekšā, kas sēdēs uz Israēla goda krēsla, ja tikai tavi dēli sargās savu ceļu, staigādami Manā priekša, itin kā tu esi staigājis Manā priekšā.
So now, Lord, God of Israel, please also keep the promise you made to your servant, my father David, when you said: ‘You will never fail to have a descendant sit in my presence on the throne of Israel, as long as they make sure to follow me as you have done.’
26 Nu tad, Israēla Dievs, lai jel Tavs vārds tiešām notiek, ko Tu esi runājis Savam kalpam, manam tēvam Dāvidam!
Now, God of Israel, please keep the promise you made to our servant, my father David.
27 Vai tad patiesi Tas Kungs dzīvotu virs zemes? Redzi, debesis un visu debesu debesis Tevi nevar saņemt, kā tad nu vēl šis nams, ko es esmu taisījis.
But will God really live here on earth? The heavens, even highest heaven, cannot contain you, much less this Temple I have built!
28 Bet griezies pie Sava kalpa lūgšanām un pie viņa piesaukšanām, Kungs, mans Dievs, un klausi to saukšanu un lūgšanu, ko Tavs kalps šodien lūdz priekš Tava vaiga.
Please hear the prayer of your servant and his request, Lord my God. Please hear the appeals and the prayers that your servant is presenting before you today.
29 Lai Tavas acis stāv atvērtas dienām naktīm pār šo namu, pār šo vietu, par ko Tu esi sacījis: Mans vārds lai tur ir; ka Tu klausi to lūgšanu, ko Tavs kalps lūgs šinī vietā.
May you watch over this Temple day and night, caring for the place where you said you would be honored. May you hear the prayer your servant prays toward this place,
30 Klausi tad Sava kalpa un Savu Israēla ļaužu sirds lūgšanu, ko tie lūgs šinī vietā, un klausi, kur Tu mīti debesīs, ak klausi un piedod!
and may you hear the request of your servant and your people Israel when they pray toward this place. Please hear from heaven where you live. May you hear and forgive.
31 Ja kāds būs apgrēkojies pret savu tuvāko un viņam liks zvērēt un nodievoties, un šis nāks un zvērēs priekš Tava altāra šinī namā,
When someone sins against another and is required to take an oath before your altar in this Temple,
32 Tad klausi Tu debesīs un dari un tiesā Savus kalpus, netaisno notiesādams un atmaksādams viņa ceļu uz viņa galvu, un taisno taisnodams, dodams viņam pēc viņa taisnības.
listen from heaven—act and judge your servants. Pay back the guilty; vindicate and reward those who do right.
33 Kad Tavi Israēla ļaudis taps kauti savu ienaidnieku priekšā, tāpēc ka tie pret Tevi būs grēkojuši, un kad tie pie Tevis atgriezīsies un dos godu Tavam vārdam un Tevi pielūgs un no sirds piesauks šinī namā,
When your people Israel are defeated by an enemy because they have sinned against you, and if they come back in repentance to you, praying for forgiveness in this Temple,
34 Tad klausi Tu debesīs un piedod Savu Israēla ļaužu grēkus un ved tos atkal tai zemē, ko Tu esi devis viņu tēviem.
then hear from heaven and forgive the sin of your people Israel, and bring them back to the land you gave to them and their forefathers.
35 Kad debess būs aizslēgta, ka lietus nelīst, tāpēc ka tie pret Tevi grēkojuši, un kad tie šinī vietā lūgs un dos godu Tavam vārdam un atgriezīsies no saviem grēkiem, kad Tu tos pazemojis,
If the skies are closed shut and there is no rain because your people have sinned against you, if they pray toward this place and if they come back in repentance to you, turning away from their sin because you have punished them,
36 Tad klausi Tu debesīs un piedod Savu kalpu un Savu Israēla ļaužu grēkus, ka Tu tiem parādi to labo ceļu, kur tiem jāstaigā, un dod lietu tai zemē, ko Tu devis Saviem ļaudīm par mantību.
then hear from heaven and forgive the sin of your servants, your people Israel. Teach them the good way so that they can walk on it, and send rain on the earth that you have given to your people as their possession.
37 Kad zemei būs bads, kad būs mēris, bula laiks, rūsa, siseņi, kukaiņi, kad viņu ienaidnieks zemē ielauzīsies pret viņu vārtiem, vai būs kāda cita mocība vai sērga,
If there is famine in the land, or disease, or blight or mildew on the crops, or if there are locusts or caterpillars, or if an enemy comes to lay siege to the towns in the land—it can be whatever kind of plague or whatever kind of disease—
38 Visas lūgšanas, visas piesaukšanas, lai lūgtu kas lūgdams no visiem Taviem Israēla ļaudīm, kad tie atzīs savas sirds bēdas un izplētīs savas rokas šinī namā,
then whatever kind of prayer or whatever kind of appeal is made by anyone or all your people Israel, in fact anyone who, knowing their problems and pains, prays toward this Temple,
39 Tad klausi Tu debesīs, Savā mājoklī, kur Tu mīti, un piedod un dari un dod ikvienam pēc visiem viņa ceļiem, itin kā Tu pazīsti viņa sirdi, jo Tu vien pazīsti visu cilvēka bērnu sirdis; -
then hear from heaven, the place where you live, and forgive. Give according to the way they live their lives, for you know what people are really like inside, and you alone know the true character of people.
40 Lai tie Tevi bīstas visu savu mūžu, kamēr tie dzīvos tai zemē, ko Tu esi devis mūsu tēviem.
Then they will respect you and follow your ways all the time they live in the land you gave to our forefathers.
41 Kad arī kāds svešinieks būs, kas nav no taviem Israēla ļaudīm, bet atnācis no tālas zemes Tava vārda dēļ,
As for the foreigners who do not belong to your people Israel but who come from a distant land,
42 (Jo tie dzirdēs par Tavu lielo vārdu un par Tavu stipro roku un par Tavu izstiepto elkoni, ) un kad tas nāks un pielūgs šinī namā,
having heard of your great nature and power and ability to help, when they come and pray toward this Temple,
43 Tad klausi Tu debesīs, Savā mājoklī, kur Tu mīti, un dari visu, par ko tas svešais Tevi piesauks, lai visas tautas virs zemes atzīst Tavu vārdu un Tevi bīstas, kā Tavi Israēla ļaudis, un lai tie atzīst, ka Tavs vārds ir saukts pār šo namu, ko es esmu uztaisījis.
then hear from heaven, the place where you live, and give them what they're asking. That way, everyone on earth will come to know and respect you, just as your own people Israel do. They will also know that this Temple I have built is dedicated to you.
44 Kad Tavi ļaudis ies karā pret saviem ienaidniekiem tai ceļā, kur Tu tos sūtīsi, un pielūgs To Kungu, griezušies uz šo pilsētu, ko Tu esi izredzējis, un uz šo namu, ko es tavam vārdam esmu uztaisījis,
When your people go to fight against their enemies, wherever you send them, and when they pray to you towards the city you have chosen and the house I have built to honor you,
45 Tad klausi Tu debesīs viņu lūgšanas un viņu sirds saukšanas un nes viņiem tiesu.
then hear from heaven what they are praying and asking for, and support their cause.
46 Kad tie pret Tevi apgrēkosies, (jo neviena cilvēka nav, kas negrēkotu) un Tu par tiem dusmosies, un tos nodosi ienaidniekiem, ka viņu uzvarētāji tos cietumā noved ienaidnieku zemē, vai tālu, vai tuvu,
If they sin against you—and there is nobody who does not sin—you may become angry with them and hand them over to an enemy who takes them away as prisoners to a foreign land, near or far away.
47 Un kad tie to atkal ņems pie sirds tai zemē, kur tie cietumā aizvesti, un atgriezīsies un Tevi piesauks sava cietuma zemē sacīdami: mēs esam grēkojuši un ļaunu darījuši, mēs esam bezdievīgi bijuši;
But if they think again in their land of captivity and repent and plead for mercy from you, saying, ‘We have sinned, we have done wrong, we have acted wickedly,’
48 Un kad tie pie Tevis atgriezīsies no visas savas sirds un no visas savas dvēseles savu ienaidnieku zemē, kas tos aizveduši cietumā, un kad tie Tevi pielūgs, griezušies uz savu zemi, ko Tu devis viņu tēviem, uz to pilsētu, ko Tu izredzējis, un uz to namu, ko es tavam vārdam uztaisījis,
and they come back to you with complete sincerity in their thoughts and attitudes there in their land of captivity; and they pray towards the land you gave their forefathers, the city you chose, and the Temple I have built to honor you,
49 Tad klausi Tu debesīs, Savā mājoklī, kur Tu mīti, viņu lūgšanu un viņu sirds saukšanu un nes viņiem tiesu,
then hear from heaven, the place where you live, respond and support their cause.
50 Un piedod Saviem ļaudīm, ko tie pret Tevi grēkojuši, un visus viņu pārkāpumus, ar ko tie pret Tevi noziegušies, un dod tiem žēlastību atrast pie tiem, kas tos cietumā tur, ka tie par viņiem apžēlojās;
Forgive your people who have sinned against you, all the rebellious acts they have committed against you. Please make those who have captured them show mercy to them.
51 Jo tie ir Tavi ļaudis un Tavs īpašums, ko Tu esi izvedis no Ēģiptes no tā dzelzs cepļa.
For they are your people—they belong to you! You led them out of Egypt, out of the middle of furnace used for smelting iron.
52 Lai Tavas acis atvērtas stāv uz Tava kalpa lūgšanu un uz Tavu Israēla ļaužu lūgšanu, ka Tu tos klausi visās lietās, par ko tie Tevi piesauc.
May you pay attention to the requests of your servant, and to the requests of your people Israel, and may you respond whenever they call out to you.
53 Jo Tu tos Sev esi izredzējis par īpašumu no visām pasaules tautām, itin kā Tu esi runājis caur Savu kalpu Mozu, kad Tu mūsu tēvus izvedi no Ēģiptes zemes, Kungs, Dievs!
For you set them apart from all the nations of the world as a people who belonged to you, just as you declared through your servant Moses when you led our fathers out of Egypt.”
54 Un notikās, kad Salamans bija pabeidzis lūgt šo lūgšanu un sirds saukšanu uz To Kungu, tad viņš pacēlās priekš Tā Kunga altāra, kur viņš bija ceļos nometies un savas rokas izpletis pret debesīm,
After Solomon finished praying all these prayers and requests to the Lord, he stood up before the altar of the Lord, where he had been kneeling with his hands held out toward heaven.
55 Un viņš nostājās un svētīja visu Israēla draudzi ar stipru balsi un sacīja:
Solomon stood, and in a loud voice he blessed the whole assembly of Israel, saying,
56 Slavēts lai ir Tas Kungs, kas dusu devis Saviem Israēla ļaudīm, itin kā Viņš runājis; neviens vārds nav zemē kritis no visiem Viņa labiem vārdiem, ko Viņš runājis caur Savu kalpu Mozu.
“Praise the Lord, who has given rest to his people Israel in accordance with everything he promised. Not a single word has failed among all the good promises he made through his servant Moses.
57 Lai Tas Kungs, mūsu Dievs, ir ar mums, itin kā Viņš bijis ar mūsu tēviem. Viņš lai mūs neatstāj un lai mūs neatmet.
May the Lord our God be with us in the same way he was with our forefathers. May he never leave us or abandon us.
58 Lai Viņš mūsu sirdis griež pie Sevis, ka mēs staigājam visos Viņa ceļos, turēdami Viņa baušļus un Viņa likumus un Viņa tiesas, ko Viņš pavēlējis mūsu tēviem.
May he help us to come to him, to follow all his ways and to keep the commandments, statutes, and regulations he ordered our forefathers to observe.
59 Un lai šie vārdi, ar ko es lūdzis Tā Kunga priekšā, tuvu ir pie Tā Kunga, mūsu Dieva, dienām naktīm, lai Viņš tiesu nes Savam kalpam un Saviem Israēla ļaudīm dienu no dienas,
May these words of mine I have used to make my request in the Lord's presence be before the Lord our God day and night. In that way he may support the cause of his servant and of his people Israel as is needed every day,
60 Lai visas pasaules tautas atzīst, ka Tas Kungs ir Dievs un cits neviens.
in order that everyone on the earth may know that the Lord is God, and that there is no other!
61 Un lai jūsu sirds paliek pilnīgi pie Tā Kunga, mūsu Dieva, ka jūs staigājat Viņa likumos un turat Viņa baušļus, tāpat kā šodien.
So make sure you are completely committed to the Lord our God just as you are today, and be careful to follow his statutes and to keep his commandments.”
62 Un ķēniņš un viss Israēls līdz ar viņu upurēja upurus Tā Kunga priekšā.
Then the king and together with all of Israel offered sacrifices before the Lord.
63 Un Salamans upurēja pateicības upurus, ko viņš Tam Kungam atnesa, divdesmit un divtūkstoš vēršus un simts un divdesmit tūkstoš avis. Tā ķēniņš ar visiem Israēla bērniem iesvētīja Tā Kunga namu.
Solomon presented as friendship offerings to the Lord 22,000 bulls and 120,000 sheep. In this way the king and all the people of Israel dedicated the Lord's Temple.
64 Tai dienā ķēniņš svētīja to iekšējo pagalmu, kas Tā Kunga nama priekšā, jo viņš tur upurēja dedzināmu upuri un ēdamu upuri un pateicības upuru taukus. Jo tas vara altāris Tā Kunga priekšā bija pa mazu priekš tā dedzināma upura un tā ēdama upura un tiem pateicības upuru taukiem.
On that same day, the king dedicated the center of the courtyard in front of the Lord's Temple. There he presented burnt offerings, grain offerings, and the fat of the friendship offerings, since the bronze altar in the Lord's presence was too small to hold all these offerings.
65 Un tanī laikā Salamans noturēja svētkus ar visu Israēli, lielu draudzi no Hamata robežas līdz Ēģiptes upei Tā Kunga, mūsu Dieva, priekšā, septiņas dienas un atkal septiņas dienas, pavisam četrpadsmit dienas; astotā dienā viņš tos ļaudis atlaida.
Then Solomon together with all of Israel observed the festival before the Lord our God for seven days, and then another seven days—fourteen days in all. It was a large assembly of people, who came from as far away as Lebo-hamath to the Wadi of Egypt.
66 Un tie svētīja ķēniņu un gāja uz saviem dzīvokļiem priecīgi un ar līksmu sirdi par visu to labumu, ko Tas Kungs bija darījis Savam kalpam Dāvidam un Saviem Israēla ļaudīm.
One day later Solomon sent the people home. They blessed the king and went home, full of joy and happy for all the good things that the Lord had done for his servant David and for his people Israel.
