Pirmā Samuela 4
1 Un Samuēls sludināja visam Israēlim Dieva vārdu. Un Israēls izgāja uz karu pret Fīlistiem un apmetās pie EbenEcera. Un Fīlisti apmetās pie Afekas.
Now at that time the Philistines came together to make war against Israel, and the men of Israel went out to war against the Philistines and took up their position at the side of Eben-ezer: and the Philistines put their forces in position in Aphek.
2 Un Fīlisti taisījās Israēlim pretī, un tā kaušanās vairojās un izplētās, un Israēls no Fīlistiem tapa sakauts, un tie tai kaušanā uz lauka nokāva līdz četrtūkstoš vīrus.
And the Philistines put their forces in order against Israel, and the fighting was hard, and Israel was overcome by the Philistines, who put to the sword about four thousand of their army in the field.
3 Un tie ļaudis nāca lēģerī, un Israēla vecaji sacīja: kāpēc Tas Kungs mūs šodien kāvis Fīlistu priekšā? Ņemsim pie sevis Tā Kunga derības šķirstu no Šīlo, ka Viņš nāk mūsu vidū un mūs izglābj no mūsu ienaidnieku rokas.
And when the people came back to their tents, the responsible men of Israel said, Why has the Lord let the Philistines overcome us today? Let us get the ark of the Lord's agreement here from Shiloh, so that it may be with us and give us salvation from the hands of those who are against us.
4 Tad tie ļaudis sūtīja uz Šīlo un atveda no turienes Tā Kunga Cebaot derības šķirstu, (Tā Kunga), kas sēž pār ķerubiem, un abi Elus dēli, Hofnus un Pinehas, bija līdz, klāt pie Dieva derības šķirsta.
So the people sent to Shiloh and got the ark of the agreement of the Lord of armies whose resting-place is between the winged ones; and Hophni and Phinehas, the two sons of Eli, were there with the ark of God's agreement.
5 Kad nu Tā Kunga derības šķirsts nāca lēģerī, tad viss Israēls gavilēja ar lielu gavilēšanu, tā ka zeme drebēja.
And when the ark of the Lord's agreement came into the tent-circle, all Israel gave a great cry, so that the earth was sounding with it.
6 Un kad Fīlisti to gavilēšanu dzirdēja, tad tie sacīja: kas tā par lielu gavilēšanas skaņu Ebreju lēģeri? Tad tie manīja, Tā Kunga šķirstu esam nākušu lēģerī.
And the Philistines, hearing the noise of their cry, said, What is this great cry among the tents of the Hebrews? Then it became clear to them that the ark of the Lord had come to the tent-circle.
7 Un Fīlisti bijās un sacīja: Dievs nācis lēģerī. Un tie sacīja: Ak vai, mums! Jo līdz šim tā nav noticis.
And the Philistines, full of fear, said, God has come into their tents. And they said, Trouble is ours! for never before has such a thing been seen.
8 Ak vai, mums! Kas mūs izpestīs no šo vareno dievu rokas? Šie ir tie dievi, kas ēģiptiešus situši ar visādām mocībām tuksnesī.
Trouble is ours! Who will give us salvation from the hands of these great gods? These are the gods who sent all sorts of blows on the Egyptians in the waste land.
9 Esiet stipri un turaties kā vīri, jūs Fīlisti, ka jums Ebrejiem nav jākalpo, tā kā tie jums kalpojuši, Turaties kā vīri un kaujaties!
Be strong, O Philistines, be men! Do not be servants to the Hebrews as they have been to you: go forward to the fight without fear.
10 Tad Fīlisti kāvās un Israēls tapa sakauts un bēga ikviens uz savu dzīvokli. Un tur notika varen liela kaušana, jo no Israēla krita trīsdesmit tūkstoš kājnieki.
So the Philistines went to the fight, and Israel was overcome, and every man went in flight to his tent: and great was the destruction, for thirty thousand footmen of Israel were put to the sword.
11 Un Dieva šķirsts tika paņemts un Elus abi dēli, Hofnus un Pinehas, nomira.
And the ark of God was taken; and Hophni and Phinehas, the sons of Eli, were put to the sword.
12 Tad viens Benjaminietis skrēja no tā karapulka un nāca tai dienā uz Šīlo ar saplēstām drēbēm un ar zemi uz galvas.
And a man of Benjamin went running from the fight and came to Shiloh the same day with his clothing out of order and earth on his head.
13 Un tam nākot, redzi, Elus sēdēja uz krēsla ceļmalā skatīdamies, jo viņa sirds trīcēja Dieva šķirsta dēļ. Kad nu tas vīrs nonāca un pilsētā to stāstīja, tad visa pilsēta brēca.
And when he came, Eli was seated by the wayside watching: and in his heart was fear for the ark of God. And when the man came into the town and gave the news, there was a great outcry.
14 Un kad Elus to brēkšanu dzirdēja, tad viņš sacīja: kas tas par troksni? Tad tas vīrs steidzās un nāca un to izteica Elum.
And Eli, hearing the noise and the cries, said, What is the reason of this outcry? And the man came quickly and gave the news to Eli.
15 (Elus nu bija deviņdesmit un astoņus gadus vecs, un viņa acis jau bija tumšas metušās un nevarēja vairs redzēt.)
Now Eli was ninety-eight years old, and his eyes were fixed so that he was not able to see.
16 Un tas vīrs sacīja uz Elu: es esmu nācis no karapulka un šodien bēdzis no karapulka. Tad viņš sacīja: kā tur iet, mans dēls?
And the man said to Eli, I have come from the army and have come in flight today from the fight. And he said, How did it go, my son?
17 Un tas vēstnesis atbildēja un sacīja: Israēls ir bēdzis Fīlistu priekšā un liela kaušana tiem ļaudīm notikusi, arī tavi abi dēli, Hofnus un Pinehas, miruši. Un Dieva šķirsts ir paņemts.
And the man said, Israel went in flight from the Philistines, and there has been great destruction among the people, and your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God has been taken.
18 Un notikās, kad šis Dieva šķirstu pieminēja, tad viņš krita no krēsla atpakaļ pie vārtiem un lauza savu kaklu un nomira, jo tas vīrs bija vecs un smags; un viņš Israēli bija tiesājis četrdesmit gadus.
And at these words about the ark of God, Eli, falling back off his seat by the side of the doorway into the town, came down on the earth so that his neck was broken and death overtook him, for he was an old man and of great weight. He had been judging Israel for forty years.
19 Un viņa vedekla, Pinehasa sieva, bija grūta un gaidās. Kad nu šī to vēsti dzirdēja, ka Dieva šķirsts bija paņemts un viņas tēvocis nomiris līdz ar viņas vīru, tad viņa locījās un dzemdēja, jo sāpes viņai uzbruka.
And his daughter-in-law, the wife of Phinehas, was with child and near the time when she would give birth; and when she had the news that the ark of God had been taken and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, her pains came on her suddenly and she gave birth.
20 Un viņai mirstot tās (sievas), kas viņai klāt stāvēja, sacīja: nebīsties, jo tu dēlu esi dzemdējusi. Bet viņa neatbildēja un to neņēma pie sirds.
And when she was very near death the women who were with her said, Have no fear, for you have given birth to a son. But she made no answer and gave no attention to it.
21 Un tā to puisēnu nosauca Ihabodu, sacīdama: godība ir nost no Israēla, - tādēļ ka Dieva šķirsts bija atņemts, un sava tēvoča un vīra dēļ.
And she gave the child the name of Ichabod, saying, The glory has gone from Israel: because the ark of God was taken and because of her father-in-law and her husband.
22 Un tā sacīja: godība ir nost no Israēla, jo Dieva šķirsts ir atņemts.
And she said, The glory is gone from Israel, for the ark of God has been taken.
