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 Kirjath-jearim came, and brought up the ark of the LORD, and brought it into the house of Abinadab on the hill, and sanctified Eleazar his son to keep the ark of the LORD.

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, while the ark abode in Kirjath-jearim, that the time was long; for it was twenty years: and all the house of Israel lamented after the LORD.

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 the LORD with all your hearts, [then] put away the strange gods, and Ashtaroth, from among you, and prepare your hearts to the LORD, and serve him only: and he will deliver you from the hand of the Philistines.

4 Tad Israēla bērni meta nost tos Baālus un tās Astartes un kalpoja Tam Kungam vien.

Then the children of Israel put away Baalim, and Ashtaroth, and served the LORD 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 Mizpeh, and I will pray for you to the LORD.

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 assembled at Mizpeh, and drew water, and poured [it] out before the LORD, and fasted on that day, and there said, We have sinned against the LORD. And Samuel judged the children of Israel in Mizpeh.

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 children of Israel were assembled at Mizpeh, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. And when the children 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 children of Israel said to Samuel, Cease not to cry to the LORD our God for us, that he will save us from 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 burnt-offering wholly to the LORD: and Samuel cried to the LORD for Israel; and the LORD heard 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 the burnt-offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel: but the LORD thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines, and discomfited them; and they were smitten 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 Mizpeh, 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 Mizpeh and Shen, and called the name of it Eben-ezer, saying, Hitherto hath the LORD helped us.

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 into the borders of Israel: and the hand of the LORD 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 the borders of it did Israel deliver from the hands 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 Beth-el, and Gilgal, and Mizpeh, and 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 there [was] his house; and there he judged Israel; and there he built an altar to the LORD.
