< Pirmā Samuela 7 >
1 Tad tie ļaudis no Kiriat-Jearimas nāca un aizveda Tā Kunga šķirstu un to nesa Abinadaba namā uz kalna, un svētīja viņa dēlu Eleazaru, sargāt Tā Kunga šķirstu.
And the men of Kiriath-jearim came, and fetched up the ark of Jehovah, and brought it into the house of Abinadab in the hill, and sanctified Eleazar his son to keep the ark of Jehovah.
2 Un notikās, ka no tās dienas, kad tas šķirsts Kiriat-Jearimā palika, labs laiks pagāja, pilni divdesmit gadi, un viss Israēla nams žēlojās pēc Tā Kunga.
And it came to pass, from the day that the ark abode in Kiriath-jearim, that the time was long, for it was twenty years, and all the house of Israel lamented after Jehovah.
3 Tad Samuēls runāja uz visu Israēla namu un sacīja: ja jūs no visas savas sirds pie Tā Kunga gribat atgriezties, tad metiet nost tos svešos dievus un tās Astartes, un griežat savu sirdi pie Tā Kunga un kalpojiet Viņam vien, tad Viņš jūs izglābs no Fīlistu rokas.
And Samuel spoke to all the house of Israel, saying, If ye do return to Jehovah with all your heart, then put away the foreign gods and the Ashtaroth from among you, and direct your hearts to Jehovah, and serve him only. And he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.
4 Tad Israēla bērni meta nost tos Baālus un tās Astartes un kalpoja Tam Kungam vien.
Then the sons of Israel did put away the Baalim and the Ashtaroth, and served Jehovah only.
5 Un Samuēls sacīja: sapulcinājiet man visu Israēli uz Micpu, tad es To Kungu jūsu labad piesaukšu.
And Samuel said, Gather all Israel to Mizpah, and I will pray for you to Jehovah.
6 Un tie tapa sapulcināti Micpā un smēla ūdeni un to izlēja Tā Kunga priekšā un gavēja to dienu un tur sacīja: mēs pret To Kungu esam grēkojuši. Tā Samuēls tiesāja Israēla bērnus Micpā.
And they gathered together to Mizpah, and drew water, and poured it out before Jehovah, and fasted on that day, and said there, We have sinned against Jehovah. And Samuel judged the sons of Israel in Mizpah.
7 Kad nu Fīlisti dzirdēja Israēla bērnus Micpā esam sapulcinātus, tad Fīlistu lielkungi nāca augšām pret Israēli. Un Israēla bērni to dzirdēja un bijās priekš Fīlistiem.
And when the Philistines heard that the sons of Israel were gathered together to Mizpah, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. And when the sons of Israel heard it, they were afraid of the Philistines.
8 Un Israēla bērni sacīja uz Samuēli: nemities mūsu dēļ brēkt uz To Kungu, mūsu Dievu, ka Viņš mūs izglābj no Fīlistu rokas.
And the sons of Israel said to Samuel, Do not cease to cry to Jehovah our God for us, that he will save us out of the hand of the Philistines.
9 Tad Samuēls ņēma vienu zīdāmu jēru un upurēja to visu Tam Kungam par dedzināmo upuri, un Samuēls brēca uz To Kungu Israēla labad, un Tas Kungs viņu paklausīja.
And Samuel took a sucking lamb, and offered it for a whole burnt offering to Jehovah. And Samuel cried to Jehovah for Israel, and Jehovah answered him.
10 Kad nu Samuēls patlaban to dedzināmo upuri upurēja, tad Fīlisti nāca pret Israēli kauties. Tad Tas Kungs tai dienā lieliem pērkoniem lika rūkt pār Fīlistiem un tos iztrūcināja, ka no Israēla tapa sakauti.
And as Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel, but Jehovah thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines, and discomfited them, and they were smitten down before Israel.
11 Un Israēla vīri izgāja no Micpas un dzinās Fīlistiem pakaļ un tos sakāva līdz pat Betkarai.
And the men of Israel went out of Mizpah, and pursued the Philistines, and smote them until they came under Beth-car.
12 Tad Samuēls ņēma vienu akmeni un to uzcēla starp Micpu un Zenu, un nosauca viņa vārdu EbenEcer, (palīdzības akmens), un sacīja: līdz šejienei Tas Kungs mums palīdzējis.
Then Samuel took a stone, and set it between Mizpah and Shen, and called the name of it Ebenezer, saying, Jehovah has helped us to now.
13 Tā Fīlisti tapa pazemoti un nenāca vairs Israēla robežās, un Tā Kunga roka bija pret Fīlistiem, kamēr Samuēls dzīvoja.
So the Philistines were subdued, and they came no more within the border of Israel, and the hand of Jehovah was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.
14 Un tās pilsētas, ko Fīlisti Israēlim bija noņēmuši, nāca atkal Israēla rokā, no Ekronas līdz Gatai, un arī viņu robežas Israēls izrāva no Fīlistu rokus, jo Israēlim bija miers ar Amoriešiem.
And the cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel, from Ekron even to Gath. And Israel delivered the border of it out of the hand of the Philistines. And there was peace between Israel and the Amorites.
15 Un Samuēls tiesāja Israēli, kamēr viņš dzīvoja.
And Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life.
16 Un viņš gāja visapkārt ik gadus uz Bēteli un Gilgalu un Micpu, un tiesāja Israēli visās tanīs vietās.
And he went from year to year in circuit to Bethel, and Gilgal, and Mizpah. And he judged Israel in all those places.
17 Un tad viņš griezās atpakaļ uz Rāmatu, jo tur bija viņa nams, un tur viņš tiesāja Israēli un tur uztaisīja altāri Tam Kungam.
And his return was to Ramah, for his house was there. And there he judged Israel, and there he built an altar to Jehovah.
