Otra Laiku 10
1 Un Rekabeams gāja uz Šehemi, jo viss Israēls Šehemē bija sanācis, viņu celt par ķēniņu.
And Rehoboam went to Shechem, where all Israel had come together to make him king.
2 Kad nu Jerobeams, Nebata dēls, to dzirdēja (jo viņš bija Ēģiptes zemē, kurp no ķēniņa Salamana bija bēdzis), tad Jerobeams griezās atpakaļ no Ēģiptes.
And when Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, had news of it, (for he was in Egypt where he had gone in flight from King Solomon, ) he came back from Egypt.
3 Un tie nosūtīja un to ataicināja. Un Jerobeams nāca ar visu Israēli un runāja uz Rekabeamu un sacīja:
And they sent for him; and Jeroboam and all Israel came to Rehoboam and said,
4 Tavs tēvs mums uzlicis par daudz grūtu jūgu; tad nu atvieglini tu sava tēva grūto kalpošanu un viņa smago jūgu, ko viņš mums uzlicis, tad mēs tev kalposim.
Your father put a hard yoke on us: if you will make the conditions under which your father kept us down less cruel, and the weight of the yoke he put on us less hard, then we will be your servants.
5 Un viņš uz tiem sacīja: pēc trim dienām nāciet atkal pie manis. Un tie ļaudis aizgāja.
And he said to them, Come to me again after three days. So the people went away.
6 Un ķēniņš Rekabeams meklēja padomu pie tiem vecajiem, kas bija stāvējuši viņa tēva Salamana priekšā, kamēr tas dzīvoja, un viņš sacīja: kādu padomu jūs dodat, kā šiem ļaudīm būs atbildēt?
Then King Rehoboam took the opinion of the old men who had been with Solomon his father when he was living, and said, In your opinion, what answer am I to give to this people?
7 Un tie uz viņu runāja un sacīja: ja tu būsi laipnīgs pret šiem ļaudīm un tiem rādīsi labu prātu un uz tiem runāsi labus vārdus, tad tie tev būs par kalpiem visu mūžu.
And they said to him, If you are kind to this people, pleasing them and saying good words to them, then they will be your servants for ever.
8 Bet viņš atmeta to vecaju padomu, ko tie viņam deva, un meklēja padomu pie tiem jauniem, kas ar viņu bija uzauguši un viņa priekšā stāvēja.
But he gave no attention to the opinion of the old men, but went to the young men of his generation who were waiting before him.
9 Un viņš uz tiem sacīja: kādu padomu jūs dodat, kā šiem ļaudīm lai atbildam, kas uz mani runājuši un sacījuši: atvieglini to jūgu, ko tavs tēvs mums uzlicis?
And he said to them, What is your opinion? What answer are we to give to this people who have said to me, Make less the weight of the yoke which your father put on us?
10 Bet tie jaunie, kas ar viņu bija uzauguši, uz to runāja un sacīja: tā tev būs sacīt uz tiem ļaudīm, kas uz tevi runājuši un sacījuši: tavs tēvs mums uzlicis visai grūtu nastu, atvieglini tu mums to, - tā tev uz tiem būs sacīt: mans mazais pirksts būs resnāks ne kā mana tēva gurni.
And the young men of his generation said to him, This is the answer to give to the people who came to you saying, Your father put a hard yoke on us, but will you make it less; say to them, My little finger is thicker than my father's body;
11 Ja nu mans tēvs jums uzlicis grūtu jūgu, tad es to jūgu jums padarīšu vēl grūtāku; mans tēvs jūs pārmācījis ar pātagām, bet es jūs pārmācīšu ar skorpioniem.
If my father put a hard yoke on you, I will make it harder: my father gave you punishment with whips, but I will give you blows with snakes.
12 Kad nu Jerobeams un visi ļaudis pie Rekabeama atnāca trešā dienā, kā ķēniņš bija runājis un sacījis: atnākat atkal pie manis trešā dienā,
So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam on the third day, as the king had given orders, saying, Come to me again on the third day.
13 Tad ķēniņš tiem atbildēja bargi, un ķēniņš Rekabeams atmeta to vecaju padomu,
And the king gave them a rough answer. So King Rehoboam gave no attention to the suggestion of the old men,
14 Un runāja uz tiem pēc to jauno padoma un sacīja: mans tēvs jums uzlicis grūtu nastu, bet es jums uzlikšu vēl vairāk; mans tēvs jūs pārmācījis ar pātagām, bet es ar skorpioniem.
But gave them the answer put forward by the young men, saying, My father made your yoke hard, but I will make it harder; my father gave you punishment with whips, but I will give it with snakes.
15 Tā ķēniņš neklausīja tos ļaudis, jo tā bija no Dieva nolikts, ka Tas Kungs savus vārdus apstiprinātu, ko bija runājis caur Ahiju, to Šīlonieti, uz Jerobeamu, Nebata dēlu.
So the king did not give ear to the people; for this came about by the purpose of God, so that the Lord might give effect to his word which he had said by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam, the son of Nebat.
16 Kad nu viss Israēls redzēja, ka ķēniņš tos neklausīja, tad tie ļaudis ķēniņam atbildēja un sacīja: kāda daļa mums ar Dāvidu? Mums nav mantības pie Isajus dēla. Israēl, ej savos dzīvokļos; tad redzi nu tu pēc sava nama, Dāvid! Tā viss Israēls nogāja savos dzīvokļos.
And when all Israel saw that the king would give no attention to them, the people in answer said to the king, What part have we in David? what is our heritage in the son of Jesse? every man to your tents, O Israel; now see to your house, David. So all Israel went to their tents.
17 Bet pār tiem Israēla bērniem, kas Jūda pilsētās dzīvoja, pār tiem Rekabeams palika ķēniņš.
But Rehoboam was still king over those of the children of Israel who were living in the towns of Judah.
18 Un ķēniņš Rekabeams sūtīja Adoramu, kas bija iecelts pār darbiniekiem, bet Israēla bērni to nomētāja akmeņiem, ka tas nomira. Un ķēniņš Rekabeams kāpa steigšus ratos, bēgt uz Jeruzālemi.
Then Rehoboam sent Adoniram, the overseer of the forced work; and he was stoned to death by all Israel. And King Rehoboam went quickly and got into his carriage to go in flight to Jerusalem.
19 Tā Israēls atkāpās no Dāvida nama līdz šai dienai.
So Israel was turned away from the family of David to this day.
