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 had come to Jerusalem, he assembled the house of Judah and Benjamin, one hundred eighty thousand chosen men who were warriors, to fight against Israel, to bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam.
2 Bet Tā Kunga vārds notika uz Šemaju, Dieva vīru, sacīdams:
But the LORD’s word 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:
“Speak to Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah 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.
‘The LORD says, “You shall not go up, nor fight against your brothers! Every man return to his house; for this thing is of me.”’” So they listened to the LORD’s words, and returned from going against Jeroboam.
5 Un Rekabeams dzīvoja Jeruzālemē un uztaisīja pilsētas par stipram pilīm Jūdā.
Rehoboam lived in Jerusalem, and built cities for defense in Judah.
6 Un viņš uztaisīja Bētlemi un Etamu un Tekou
He built Bethlehem, Etam, Tekoa,
7 Un Betcuru un Zoku un Adulamu
Beth Zur, Soco, 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, which are fortified cities in Judah and in Benjamin.
11 Un viņš darīja šās stiprās pilis vēl stiprākas un lika tanīs virsniekus, sakrāja tur barību, eļļu un vīnu,
He fortified the strongholds and put captains 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 every city, and made them exceedingly strong. 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 stood with him out of all their territory.
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 pasture lands and their possessions, and came to Judah and Jerusalem; for Jeroboam and his sons cast them off, that they should not execute the priest’s office to the LORD.
15 Un viņš sev iecēla priesterus priekš tiem kalna altāriem un jodiem un teļiem, ko viņš bija taisījis.
He himself appointed priests for the high places, for the male goat and calf idols which 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.
After them, out of all the tribes of Israel, those who set their hearts to seek the LORD, the God of Israel, came to Jerusalem to sacrifice to the LORD, 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 the son of Solomon strong for three years, for they walked 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 the son of David and of Abihail the daughter of Eliab the son of Jesse.
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 her, he took Maacah the granddaughter of Absalom; and 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 the granddaughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines; for 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 the son of Maacah to be chief, the prince among his brothers, 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.
He dealt wisely, and dispersed some of his sons throughout all the lands of Judah and Benjamin, to every fortified city. He gave them food in abundance; and he sought many wives for them.
