Pirmā Samuela 6
1 Un Tā Kunga šķirsts sabija septiņus mēnešus Fīlistu zemē.
Now the ark of the Lord was in the country of the Philistines for seven months.
2 Un Fīlisti sasauca priesterus un zīlniekus sacīdami: ko lai darām ar Tā Kunga šķirstu? Sakāt mums, kā lai to sūtam atpakaļ savā vietā.
And the Philistines sent for the priests and those who were wise in secret arts, and said to them, What are we to do with the ark of the Lord? How are we to send it away to its place?
3 Un tie sacīja: ja jūs Israēla Dieva šķirstu gribat sūtīt, tad nesūtat viņu tukšā, bet atmaksājiet Viņam noziegumu upuri; tad jūs tapsiet dziedināti, un jums taps zināms, kādēļ Viņa roka no jums nav atstājusies.
And they said, If you send away the ark of the God of Israel, do not send it without an offering, but send him a sin-offering with it: then you will have peace again, and it will be clear to you why the weight of his hand has not been lifted from you.
4 Tad tie sacīja: kāds ir tas nozieguma upuris, ko mums Viņam būs maksāt? Un tie sacīja: pieci zelta augoņi un piecas zelta peles pēc piecu Fīlistu lielkungu skaita; jo vienāda mocība ir pār jums visiem un pār jūsu lielkungiem.
Then they said, What sin-offering are we to send to him? And they said, Five gold images of the growths caused by your disease and five gold mice, one for every lord of the Philistines: for the same disease came on you and on your lords.
5 Tad taisiet nu tādas zīmes tā kā jūsu augoņi ir, un tādu peļu zīmes, kas jūsu zemi samaitā, un dodiet Israēla Dievam godu, varbūt ka Viņš Savu roku atvieglinās pār jums un pār jūsu dievu un pār jūsu zemi.
So make images of the growths caused by your disease and of the mice which are damaging your land; and give glory to the God of Israel: it may be that the weight of his hand will be lifted from you and from your gods and from your land.
6 Kāpēc tad jūs savu sirdi gribat apcietināt, kā ēģiptieši un Faraons savu sirdi apcietinājuši? Vai tas tā nav, kad Viņš brīnišķi tiem bija parādījies, tad tie atlaiduši (Israēla ļaudis), ka tie aizgāja?
Why do you make your hearts hard, like the hearts of Pharaoh and the Egyptians? When he had made sport of them, did they not let the people go, and they went away?
7 Nu tad ņemiet un taisiet jaunus ratus un ņemiet divas zīžamas govis, uz kurām vēl nekāds jūgs nav bijis, un iejūdziet tās govis ratos un vediet viņu teļus no tām atpakaļ uz mājām;
So now, take and make ready a new cart, and two cows which have never come under the yoke, and have the cows yoked to the cart, and take their young ones away from them:
8 Tad ņemiet Tā Kunga šķirstu un uzlieciet to uz tiem ratiem, un tās zelta lietas, ko jūs Viņam par nozieguma upuri maksāsiet, nolieciet trauciņā viņam blakām un sūtat viņu projām, lai iet.
And put the ark of the Lord on the cart, and the gold images which you are sending as a sin-offering in a chest by its side; and send it away so that it may go.
9 Tad lūkojiet, ja tas uz savas robežas ceļu iet, uz Bet-Šemesu, tad Tas mums visu šo lielo ļaunumu darījis, bet ja ne, tad mēs nopratīsim, ka Viņa roka mūs nav aizskārusi, bet tas mums no nejauši noticis.
If it goes by the land of Israel to Beth-shemesh, then this great evil is his work; but if not, then we may be certain that the evil was not his doing, but was the working of chance.
10 Un tie ļaudis tā darīja un ņēma divas zīžamas govis un tās iejūdza ratos, un viņu teļus tie paturēja mājās.
And the men did so; they took two cows, yoking them to the cart and shutting up their young ones in their living-place:
11 Un tie uzlika Tā Kunga šķirstu uz ratiem līdz ar trauciņu ar tām zelta pelēm un ar tām augoņu zīmēm.
And they put the ark of the Lord on the cart and the chest with the gold images.
12 Tad tās govis gāja taisni pa ceļu uz Bet-Šemesu, vienu pašu ceļu tās gāja tikuši(nepārtraukti) bļaudamas, un neatkāpās ne pa labo, ne pa kreiso roku, un Fīlistu lielkungi tām gāja pakaļ līdz Bet-Šemesas robežai.
And the cows took the straight way, by the road to Beth-shemesh; they went by the highway, not turning to the right or to the left, and the sound of their voices was clear on the road; and the lords of the Philistines went after them as far as the edge of Beth-shemesh.
13 Un Bet-Šemesas ļaudis pļāva kviešus ielejā, un kad tie savas acis pacēla un to šķirstu redzēja, tad tie priecājās, to redzēdami.
And the people of Beth-shemesh were cutting their grain in the valley, and lifting up their eyes they saw the ark and were full of joy when they saw it.
14 Un tie rati nāca uz Jozuas, tā Bet-Šemieša, tīrumu un tur apstājās. Un tur bija liels akmens, un tie skaldīja to ratu malku un upurēja tās govis Tam Kungam par dedzināmo upuri.
And the cart came into the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite, and came to a stop there by a great stone: and cutting up the wood of the cart they made a burned offering of the cows to the Lord.
15 Un tie Leviti nocēla Tā Kunga šķirstu līdz ar to trauciņu, kas bija klāt, kur tās zelta lietas bija iekšā, un to uzlika uz to lielo akmeni, un Bet-Šemesas ļaudis upurēja tai dienā dedzināmos upurus un kāva Tam Kungam kaujamus upurus.
Then the Levites took down the ark of the Lord and the chest in which were the gold images, and put them on the great stone: and the men of Beth-shemesh made burned offerings and gave worship that day before the Lord.
16 Un kad tie pieci Fīlistu lielkungi to bija redzējuši, tad tie tai pašā dienā griezās atpakaļ uz Ekronu.
And the five lords of the Philistines, having seen it, went back to Ekron the same day.
17 Šie nu ir tie zelta augoņi, ko Fīlisti Tam Kungam deva par nozieguma upuri, vienu priekš Ašdodas, vienu priekš Gazas, vienu priekš Asklonas, vienu priekš Gatas, vienu priekš Ekronas.
Now these are the gold images which the Philistines sent as a sin-offering to the Lord; one for Ashdod, one for Gaza, one for Ashkelon, one for Gath, one for Ekron;
18 Un tās zelta peles bija pēc visu Fīlistu pilsētu skaita, kas apakš tiem pieciem lielkungiem, gan no stiprajām pilsētām, gan no laucinieku ciemiem. Un par liecinieku ir tas lielais akmens, kur tie Tā Kunga šķirstu bija nocēluši, kas līdz šai dienai ir uz Jozuas, tā Bet-Šemieša, tīruma.
And the gold mice, one for every town of the Philistines, the property of the five lords, walled towns as well as country places: and the great stone where they put the ark of the Lord is still in the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite to this day.
19 Un Tas Kungs sita Bet-Šemesas ļaudis, tāpēc ka tie Tā Kunga šķirstu bija aplūkojuši, un Viņš sita no tiem ļaudīm septiņdesmit vīrus (piecdesmit no tūkstoša). Tad tie ļaudis bēdājās, ka Tas Kungs ar tādu lielu sišanu tos ļaudis bija sitis.
But the Lord sent destruction on seventy men of the people of Beth-shemesh for looking into the ark of the Lord; and great was the sorrow of the people for the destruction which the Lord had sent on them.
20 Un tie ļaudis no Bet-Šemesas sacīja: kas var pastāvēt priekš Tā Kunga, šī svēta Dieva, vaiga? Un pie kā lai Viņš no mums aiziet.
And the men of Beth-shemesh said, Who is able to keep his place before the Lord, this holy God? and to whom may he go from us?
21 Tad tie sūtīja vēstnešus pie Kiriat-Jearimas iedzīvotājiem sacīdami: Fīlisti Tā Kunga šķirstu atkal ir atveduši; nāciet un novediet to pie sevis.
And they sent men to the people living in Kiriath-jearim, saying, The Philistines have sent back the ark of the Lord; come and take it up to your country.
