< Otra Laiku 11 >

1 Un Jeruzālemē nonācis Rekabeams sapulcināja Jūda un Benjamina namu, simts un astoņdesmit tūkstoš jaunus, izlasītus karavīrus, karot pret Israēli, lai valstība atkal tiktu Rekabeamam.
And Roboam came to Jerusalem; and he assembled Juda and Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand young men fit for war, and he waged war with Israel to recover the kingdom to Roboam.
2 Bet Tā Kunga vārds notika uz Šemaju, Dieva vīru, sacīdams:
And the Word of the Lord came to Samaias the man of God, saying,
3 Runā uz Rekabeamu, Salamana dēlu, Jūda ķēniņu, un uz visu Israēli Jūdā un Benjaminā un saki:
Speak to Roboam the [son] of Solomon, and to all Juda and Benjamin, saying,
4 Tā saka Tas Kungs: jums nebūs iet pret saviem brāļiem karot; griežaties atpakaļ ikkatrs savās mājās, jo šī lieta no manis notikusi. Un tie klausīja Tā Kunga vārdus un griezās atpakaļ no tā ceļa pret Jerobeamu.
Thus saith the Lord, Ye shall not go up, and ye shall not war against your brethren: return every one to his home; for this thing is of me. And they hearkened to the word of the Lord, and returned from going against Jeroboam.
5 Un Rekabeams dzīvoja Jeruzālemē un uztaisīja pilsētas par stipram pilīm Jūdā.
And Roboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and he built walled cities in Judea.
6 Un viņš uztaisīja Bētlemi un Etamu un Tekou
And he built Bethleem, and Aetan and Thecoe,
7 Un Betcuru un Zoku un Adulamu
and Baethsura, and Sochoth, and Odollam,
8 Un Gatu un Marezu un Zivu
and Geth, and Marisa, and Ziph,
9 Un Adoraīmu un Laķisu un Azeku
and Adorai, and Lachis, and Azeca,
10 Un Careju un Ajalonu un Hebroni, kas Jūdā un Benjaminā bija stipras pilsētas.
and Saraa, and Aelom, and Chebron, which belong to Juda and Benjamin, walled cities.
11 Un viņš darīja šās stiprās pilis vēl stiprākas un lika tanīs virsniekus, sakrāja tur barību, eļļu un vīnu,
And he fortified them with walls, and placed in them captains, and stores of provisions, oil and wine,
12 Un ikkatrā pilsētā viņš ielika priekšturamās bruņas un šķēpus un darīja tās ļoti stipras; tā Jūda un Benjamins viņam piederēja.
shields and spears in every several city, and he fortified them very strongly, and he had on his side Juda and Benjamin.
13 Un tie priesteri un Leviti, kas bija starp visu Israēli, atnāca pie viņa no visām savām robežām.
And the priests and the Levites who were in all Israel were gathered to him out of all the coasts.
14 Jo Leviti atstāja savus apgabalus un savu dzīvi un gāja uz Jūdu un Jeruzālemi; jo Jerobeams un viņa dēli tos izdzina, lai tie Tam Kungam vairs nebūtu par priesteriem.
For the Levites left the tents of their possession, and went to Juda to Jerusalem, because Jeroboam and his sons had ejected them so that they should not minister to the Lord.
15 Un viņš sev iecēla priesterus priekš tiem kalna altāriem un jodiem un teļiem, ko viņš bija taisījis.
And he made for himself priests of the high places, and for the idols, and for the vanities, and for the calves which Jeroboam made.
16 Un viņiem gāja pakaļ uz Jeruzālemi arī no visām Israēla ciltīm, kas savu sirdi nodeva, meklēt To Kungu, Israēla Dievu, un upurēt Tam Kungam, savu tēvu Dievam.
And he cast out from the tribes of Israel those who set their heart to seek the Lord God of Israel: and they came to Jerusalem, to sacrifice to the Lord God of their fathers.
17 Tā tie darīja spēcīgu Jūda valstību un stiprināja Rekabeamu, Salamana dēlu, trīs gadus; jo trīs gadus tie staigāja Dāvida un Salamana ceļos.
And they strengthened the kingdom of Juda; and [Juda] strengthened Roboam the [son] of Solomon for three years, for he walked three years in the ways of David and Solomon.
18 Un Rekabeams ņēma par sievu Maēlatu, Jerimota, Dāvida dēla, meitu, un Abikaīlu, Elijaba, Isajus dēla, meitu.
And Roboam took to himself for a wife, Moolath daughter of Jerimuth the son of David, and Abigaia daughter of Heliab the son of Jessae.
19 Tā tam dzemdēja dēlus: Jeū, Zemariju un Zaāmu.
And she bore him sons; Jeus, and Samoria, and Zaam.
20 Un pēc tās viņš ņēma Maēku, Absaloma meitu; tā tam dzemdēja Abiju un Ataju un Zizu un Šelomitu.
And afterwards he took to himself Maacha the daughter of Abessalom; and she bore him Abia, and Jetthi, and Zeza, and Salemoth.
21 Un Rekabeams mīlēja Maēku, Absaloma meitu, vairāk nekā visas savas sievas un liekās sievas; jo viņš bija ņēmis astoņpadsmit sievas un sešdesmit liekas sievas, un dzemdināja divdesmitastoņus dēlus un sešdesmit meitas.
And Roboam loved Maacha the daughter of Abessalom more than all his wives and all his concubines: for he had eighteen wives and sixty concubines; and he begot twenty-eight sons, and sixty daughters.
22 Un Rekabeams iecēla Abiju, Maēkas dēlu, par virsnieku un lielkungu starp viņa brāļiem; jo viņš domāja, to celt par ķēniņu.
And he made Abia the son of Maacha chief, [even] a leader among his brethren, for he intended to make him king.
23 Un viņš turējās gudri un izdalīja visus savus dēlus pa visām Jūda un Benjamina valstīm visās stiprās pilsētās, un deva tiem barības papilnam un ņēma tiem pulku sievas.
And he was exalted beyond all his [other] sons in all the coasts of Juda and Benjamin, and in the strong cities; and he gave them provisions in great abundance: and he desired many wives.
