Pirmā Samuela 2
1 Tad Anna pielūdza un sacīja: “Mana sirds lec no prieka iekš Tā Kunga, mans rags ir paaugstināts iekš Tā Kunga; mana mute ir atvērta pret maniem ienaidniekiem, jo es priecājos par Tavu pestīšanu.
And Hannah prayed, and said: my heart exulteth in the LORD, my horn is exalted in the LORD; my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; because I rejoice in Thy salvation.
2 Neviens nav svēts, kā Tas Kungs, neviens, kā Tu vien, un nekāds patvērums nav, kā mūsu Dievs.
There is none holy as the LORD, for there is none beside Thee; neither is there any rock like our God.
3 Nedaudzinājiet runu augsti jo augsti, blēņas lai paliek nost no jūsu mutes; jo Tas Kungs ir Dievs, tas visu zinātājs, Viņš sver tos darbus.
Multiply not exceeding proud talk; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth; for the LORD is a God of knowledge, and by Him actions are weighed.
4 Vareniem stops ir salauzts, un vājie ir apjozti ar stiprumu;
The bows of the mighty men are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength.
5 Paēdušie sader par maizi, un izsalkušie vairs nav izsalkuši. Pati neauglīgā dzemdē septiņus, kam bija daudz bērnu, tā savīst.
They that were full have hired out themselves for bread; and they that were hungry have ceased; while the barren hath borne seven, she that had many children hath languished.
The LORD killeth, and maketh alive; He bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up. (Sheol h7585)
7 Tas Kungs dara nabagu un dara bagātu, Viņš pazemo un paaugstina.
The LORD maketh poor, and maketh rich; He bringeth low, He also lifteth up.
8 Viņš uzceļ nabagu no pīšļiem, un bēdīgo Viņš paaugstina no dubļiem, ka Viņš tos sēdina starp lieliem kungiem un tiem liek iemantot goda krēslu; jo zemes pamati pieder Tam Kungam, un Viņš uz tiem pasauli licis.
He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, He lifteth up the needy from the dung-hill, to make them sit with princes, and inherit the throne of glory; for the pillars of the earth are the LORD'S, and He hath set the world upon them.
9 Savu svēto kājas Viņš pasargā; bet tie bezdievīgie tumsībā iet bojā: jo neviens nav varens caur (savu) spēku.
He will keep the feet of His holy ones, but the wicked shall be put to silence in darkness; for not by strength shall man prevail.
10 Tas Kungs - Viņa pretinieki top iztrūcināti, debesīs pār tiem Viņš liek pērkoniem rūkt. Tas Kungs tiesās zemes galus un dos Savam ķēniņam spēku un paaugstinās Sava svaidītā ragu.”
They that strive with the LORD shall be broken to pieces; against them will He thunder in heaven; the LORD will judge the ends of the earth; and He will give strength unto His king, and exalt the horn of His anointed.
11 Un Elkanus nogāja uz Rāmatu savā namā, bet tas zēns kalpoja Tam Kungam priestera Elus priekšā.
And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the child did minister unto the LORD before Eli the priest.
12 Bet Elus dēli bija netikli, tie neatzina To Kungu.
Now the sons of Eli were base men; they knew not the LORD.
13 Un priesteru ieradums ar ļaudīm bija: kad kāds upuri upurēja, tad priestera puisis nāca, kamēr tā gaļa vārījās, - un tam dakšas ar trim zariem bija rokā, -
And the custom of the priests with the people was, that, when any man offered sacrifice, the priest's servant came, while the flesh was in seething, with a flesh-hook of three teeth in his band;
14 Un bakstīja grāpī vai katlā vai pannā vai podā. Ko nu tās dakšas uzvilka, to priesteris ņēma priekš sevis. Tā tie darīja visiem Israēla ļaudīm, kas tur nāca uz Šīlo.
and he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; all that the flesh-hook brought up the priest took therewith. So they did unto all the Israelites that came thither in Shiloh.
15 Un pirms tie tos taukus iededzināja, priestera puisis nāca un sacīja uz to vīru, kas upurēja: dod gaļas priesterim priekš cepeša, jo viņš no tevis negrib vārītu gaļu, bet jēlu.
Yea, before the fat was made to smoke, the priest's servant came, and said to the man that sacrificed: 'Give flesh to roast for the priest; for he will not have sodden flesh of thee, but raw.'
16 Ja kas uz to sacīja: pašu laiku(vispirms) tos taukus iededzinās, tad ņem priekš sevis, kā tava sirds kāro, - tad šis uz to sacīja: nupat tev būs dot, un ja ne, tad es ņemšu ar varu.
And if the man said unto him: 'Let the fat be made to smoke first of all, and then take as much as thy soul desireth'; then he would say: 'Nay, but thou shalt give it me now; and if not, I will take it by force.'
17 Tā šo puišu grēki bija ļoti lieli Tā Kunga priekšā, jo šie vīri nicināja Tā Kunga ēdamo upuri. -
And the sin of the young men was very great before the LORD; for the men dealt contemptuously with the offering of the LORD.
18 Bet Samuēls kalpoja Tā Kunga priekšā, puisis būdams, apjozts ar nātnu efodu.
But Samuel ministered before the LORD, being a child, girded with a linen ephod.
19 Un māte viņam taisīja mazus svārciņus un tos viņam nesa ik gadus, kad ar savu vīru nāca, gadskārtējo upuri upurēt.
Moreover his mother made him a little robe, and brought it to him from year to year, when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.
20 Un Elus svētīja Elkanu un viņa sievu un sacīja: lai Tas Kungs tev dod dzimumu no šās sievas, par to izlūgto, ko viņa no Tā Kunga ir izlūgusi. Un tie gāja uz savu māju.
And Eli would bless Elkanah and his wife, and say: 'The LORD give thee seed of this woman for the loan which was lent to the LORD.' And they would go unto their own home.
21 Un Tas Kungs piemeklēja Annu un tā tapa grūta un dzemdēja trīs dēlus un divas meitas. Bet tas puisītis Samuēls uzauga pie Tā Kunga.
So the LORD remembered Hannah, and she conceived, and bore three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before the LORD.
22 Un Elus bija ļoti vecs un dzirdēja visu, ko viņa dēli visam Israēlim darīja, un ka tie gulēja pie tām sievām, kas sapulcējās priekš saiešanas telts durvīm.
Now Eli was very old; and he heard all that his sons did unto all Israel, and how that they lay with the women that did service at the door of the tent of meeting.
23 Un viņš uz tiem sacīja: kāpēc jūs darāt tādas lietas? Kā es par jums tādu neslavu dzirdu no visiem šiem ļaudīm?
And he said unto them: 'Why do ye such things? for I hear evil reports concerning you from all this people.
24 Nē, mani bērni, tā nav laba slava, ko es dzirdu, jo jūs darāt Tā Kunga ļaudis pārkāpjam.
Nay, my sons; for it is no good report which I hear the LORD'S people do spread abroad.
25 Kad cilvēks pret cilvēku grēko, tad tiesas kungi to izlīdzina, bet kad cilvēks pret To Kungu grēko, kas priekš tāda var aizlūgt? Bet tie neklausīja sava tēva balsi, jo Tas Kungs tos gribēja nokaut.
If one man sin against another, God shall judge him; but if a man sin against the LORD, who shall entreat for him?' But they hearkened not unto the voice of their father, because the LORD would slay them.
26 Un tas puisis Samuēls augdams auga un patika gan Tam Kungam, gan tiem ļaudīm.
And the child Samuel grew on, and increased in favour both with the LORD, and also with men.
27 Un viens Dieva vīrs nāca pie Elus un uz to sacīja: tā saka Tas Kungs: vai Es neesmu skaidri parādījies tava tēva namam, kad tie bija Ēģiptes zemē Faraona namā,
And there came a man of God unto Eli, and said unto him: 'Thus saith the LORD: Did I reveal Myself unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt in bondage to Pharaoh's house?
28 Un to no visām Israēla ciltīm Sev esmu licis par priesteri, upurēt uz Mana altāra, kvēpināmās zāles iededzināt un to plecu apsegu nest Manā priekšā, un Es tava tēva namam esmu devis visus Israēla bērnu uguns upurus.
And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be My priest, to go up unto Mine altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before Me? and did I give unto the house of thy father all the offerings of the children of Israel made by fire?
29 Kāpēc tad jūs kājām minat Manu upuri un Manu ēdamo upuri, ko Es esmu pavēlējis (nest Manā) dzīvoklī? Un tu godā savus dēlus vairāk nekā Mani, ka jūs barojaties no visu Manu Israēla ļaužu upuru pirmajiem.
Wherefore kick ye at My sacrifice and at Mine offering, which I have commanded in My habitation; and honourest thy sons above Me, to make yourselves fat with the chiefest of all the offerings of Israel My people?
30 Tādēļ Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs, saka: gan Es biju skaidri sacījis: tavam namam un tava tēva namam bija Manā priekšā staigāt mūžīgi. Bet nu Tas Kungs saka: nemūžam nē, bet kas Mani godā, tos Es godāju, un kas Mani nicina, tie paliek kaunā.
Therefore the LORD, the God of Israel, saith: I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before Me for ever; but now the LORD saith: Be it far from Me: for them that honour Me I will honour, and they that despise Me shall be lightly esteemed.
31 Redzi, nāk dienas, tad Es nocirtīšu tavu elkoni un tava tēva nama elkoni, tā ka neviena veca vairs nebūs tavā namā.
Behold, the days come, that I will cut off thine arm, and the arm of thy father's house, that there shall not be an old man in thy house.
32 Un tu redzēsi (Dieva) dzīvokļa bēdas pie visa, ko Viņš Israēlim labu darīs, un veca nebūs tavā namā nemūžam.
And thou shalt behold a rival in My habitation, in all the good which shall be done to Israel; and there shall not be an old man in thy house for ever.
33 Tomēr visus Es tev neizdeldēšu no Mana altāra, ka tavām acīm būs īgt un tavai dvēselei iztvīkt, bet viss tava nama dzimums mirs vīra gados.
Yet will I not cut off every man of thine from Mine altar, to make thine eyes to fail, and thy heart to languish; and all the increase of thy house shall die young men.
34 Šī nu būs tā zīme, kas nāks pār taviem abiem dēliem, par Hofnu un Pinehasu: vienā dienā abi mirs.
And this shall be the sign unto thee, that which shall come upon thy two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas: in one day they shall die both of them.
35 Un Es Sev celšu uzticīgu priesteri; tas darīs pēc Manas sirds un dvēseles, tam Es uztaisīšu pastāvīgu namu, un tas staigās priekš Mana svaidītā vienmēr.
And I will raise Me up a faithful priest, that shall do according to that which is in My heart and in My mind; and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before Mine anointed for ever.
36 Un kas vēl atliks no tava nama, nāks un klanīsies priekš viņa par naudas artavu un par maizes riecienu un sacīs: pieņem mani lūdzams kādā priestera amatā, ka dabūju maizes kumosu, ko ēst.
And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left in thy house shall come and bow down to him for a piece of silver and a loaf of bread, and shall say: Put me, I pray thee, into one of the priests' offices, that I may eat a morsel of bread.'
