< 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 rejoiceth in the LORD, mine 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.
Talk no more so exceeding proudly; 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 ceased: so that the barren hath born seven; and she that hath many children is waxed feeble.
6 Tas Kungs nokauj un dara dzīvu, Viņš noved ellē un atkal uzved augšā. (Sheol )
The LORD killeth, and maketh alive: he bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up. (Sheol )
7 Tas Kungs dara nabagu un dara bagātu, Viņš pazemo un paaugstina.
The LORD maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and 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, [and] lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set [them] among princes, and to make them 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 saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no 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.”
The adversaries of the LORD shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them: the LORD shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall 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] sons of Belial; 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 priests’ custom with the people [was, that], when any man offered sacrifice, the priest’s servant came, while the flesh was in seething, with a fleshhook of three teeth in his hand;
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 fleshhook brought up the priest took for himself. So they did in Shiloh unto all the Israelites that came thither.
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.
Also before they burnt the fat, 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] any man said unto him, Let them not fail to burn the fat presently, and [then] take [as much] as thy soul desireth; then he would answer him, [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. -
Wherefore the sin of the young men was very great before the LORD: for men abhorred 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 coat, 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 blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, The LORD give thee seed of this woman for the loan which is lent to the LORD. And they went 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.
And the LORD visited Hannah, so that she conceived, and bare 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 heard all that his sons did unto all Israel; and how they lay with the women that assembled [at] the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
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 of your evil dealings by 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 that I hear: ye make the LORD’s people to transgress.
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, the judge shall judge him: but if a man sin against the LORD, who shall intreat for him? Notwithstanding 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 was 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 plainly appear unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt in 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 offer upon mine altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me? and did I give unto the house of thy father all the offerings made by fire of the children of Israel?
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.
Wherefore the LORD 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 thine house.
32 Un tu redzēsi (Dieva) dzīvokļa bēdas pie visa, ko Viņš Israēlim labu darīs, un veca nebūs tavā namā nemūžam.
And thou shalt see an enemy [in my] habitation, in all [the wealth] which [God] shall give Israel: and there shall not be an old man in thine 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.
And the man of thine, [whom] I shall not cut off from mine altar, [shall be] to consume thine eyes, and to grieve thine heart: and all the increase of thine house shall die in the flower of their age.
34 Šī nu būs tā zīme, kas nāks pār taviem abiem dēliem, par Hofnu un Pinehasu: vienā dienā abi mirs.
And this [shall be] a sign unto thee, that 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 mine 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 thine house shall come [and] crouch to him for a piece of silver and a morsel of bread, and shall say, Put me, I pray thee, into one of the priests’ offices, that I may eat a piece of bread.
