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.
When Rehoboam arrived in Jerusalem, he assembled the house of Judah and Benjamin, 180,000 chosen men who were soldiers, to fight against Israel, to restore the kingdom to Rehoboam.
2 Bet Tā Kunga vārds notika uz Šemaju, Dieva vīru, sacīdams:
But the word of Yahweh came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
3 Runā uz Rekabeamu, Salamana dēlu, Jūda ķēniņu, un uz visu Israēli Jūdā un Benjaminā un saki:
“Say to Rehoboam son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin,
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.
'Yahweh says this, “You must not attack or make war against your brothers. Everyone must return to his own house, for I have caused this to happen.”'” So they obeyed the words of Yahweh and turned back from attacking Jeroboam.
5 Un Rekabeams dzīvoja Jeruzālemē un uztaisīja pilsētas par stipram pilīm Jūdā.
Rehoboam lived in Jerusalem and built cities in Judah for defense.
6 Un viņš uztaisīja Bētlemi un Etamu un Tekou
He built Bethlehem, Etam, Tekoa,
7 Un Betcuru un Zoku un Adulamu
Beth Zur, Soko, Adullam,
8 Un Gatu un Marezu un Zivu
Gath, Mareshah, Ziph,
9 Un Adoraīmu un Laķisu un Azeku
Adoraim, Lachish, Azekah,
10 Un Careju un Ajalonu un Hebroni, kas Jūdā un Benjaminā bija stipras pilsētas.
Zorah, Aijalon, and Hebron. These are fortified cities in Judah and Benjamin.
11 Un viņš darīja šās stiprās pilis vēl stiprākas un lika tanīs virsniekus, sakrāja tur barību, eļļu un vīnu,
He fortified the fortresses and put commanders in them, with stores of food, oil, and wine.
12 Un ikkatrā pilsētā viņš ielika priekšturamās bruņas un šķēpus un darīja tās ļoti stipras; tā Jūda un Benjamins viņam piederēja.
He put shields and spears in all the cities and made them very strong. So Judah and Benjamin belonged to him.
13 Un tie priesteri un Leviti, kas bija starp visu Israēli, atnāca pie viņa no visām savām robežām.
The priests and the Levites who were in all Israel went over to him from within their borders.
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 their pasturelands and property in order to come to Judah and Jerusalem, for Jeroboam and his sons had driven them away, so that they could no longer perform priestly duties for Yahweh.
15 Un viņš sev iecēla priesterus priekš tiem kalna altāriem un jodiem un teļiem, ko viņš bija taisījis.
Jeroboam appointed for himself priests for the high places and the goat and calf idols he had 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.
People from all the tribes of Israel came after them, those who set their hearts to seek Yahweh, the God of Israel; they came to Jerusalem to sacrifice to Yahweh, the 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.
So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah and made Rehoboam son of Solomon strong during three years, and they walked for three years in the way of David and Solomon.
18 Un Rekabeams ņēma par sievu Maēlatu, Jerimota, Dāvida dēla, meitu, un Abikaīlu, Elijaba, Isajus dēla, meitu.
Rehoboam took a wife for himself: Mahalath, the daughter of Jerimoth, David's son, and of Abihail, the daughter of Eliab, Jesse's son.
19 Tā tam dzemdēja dēlus: Jeū, Zemariju un Zaāmu.
She bore him sons: Jeush, Shemariah, and Zaham.
20 Un pēc tās viņš ņēma Maēku, Absaloma meitu; tā tam dzemdēja Abiju un Ataju un Zizu un Šelomitu.
After Mahalath, Rehoboam took Maacah, Absalom's daughter; she bore him Abijah, Attai, Ziza, and Shelomith.
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.
Rehoboam loved Maacah, Absalom's daughter, more than all his other wives and his concubines (he took eighteen wives and sixty concubines, and became the father of 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.
Rehoboam appointed Abijah son of Maacah to be chief, a leader among his brothers; he had the thought of making 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.
Rehoboam ruled wisely; he scattered all his sons throughout all the land of Judah and Benjamin to every fortified city. He also gave them food in abundance and looked for many wives for them.
