< Otra Laiku 16 >

1 Asas trīsdesmit sestā valdīšanas gadā Baeša, Israēla ķēniņš, cēlās pret Jūdu un uztaisīja Rāmu, ka viņš nevienam neļautu ne iziet nedz ieiet pie Asas, Jūda ķēniņa.
In the thirty-sixth year of Asa’s reign, Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might not allow anyone to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
2 Tad Asa ņēma sudrabu un zeltu no Tā Kunga nama un no ķēniņa nama mantām, un to sūtīja BenHadadam, Sīrijas ķēniņam, kas Damaskū dzīvoja, un lika sacīt:
Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of the LORD’s house and of the king’s house, and sent to Ben Hadad king of Syria, who lived at Damascus, saying,
3 Derība ir starp mani un tevi un starp manu tēvu un tavu tēvu; redzi, es tev sūtu sudrabu un zeltu: ej un lauz savu derību ar Baešu, Israēla ķēniņu, ka tas no manis atstājās.
“Let there be a treaty between me and you, as there was between my father and your father. Behold, I have sent you silver and gold. Go, break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me.”
4 Un BenHadads paklausīja ķēniņam Asam un sūtīja savus kara virsniekus pret Israēla pilsētām, un tie sita Ejonu un Danu un AbelMaīmu un visas Navtaļa labības pilsētas.
Ben Hadad listened to King Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel; and they struck Ijon, Dan, Abel Maim, and all the storage cities of Naphtali.
5 Kad nu Baeša to dzirdēja, tad viņš mitējās Rāmu uztaisīt un atstāja savu darbu.
When Baasha heard of it, he stopped building Ramah, and let his work cease.
6 Tad ķēniņš Asa ņēma visu Jūdu, un tie nonesa akmeņus un kokus no Rāmas, ko Baeša bija taisījis, un viņš no tiem uzcēla Ģebu un Micpu.
Then Asa the king took all Judah, and they carried away the stones and timber of Ramah, with which Baasha had built; and he built Geba and Mizpah with them.
7 Un tanī laikā Hananus, tas redzētājs, nāca pie Asas, Jūda ķēniņa, un uz to sacīja: tāpēc ka tu esi paļāvies uz Sīrijas ķēniņu un neesi paļāvies uz To Kungu, savu Dievu, tādēļ Sīrijas ķēniņa karaspēks no tavas rokas izsprucis.
At that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said to him, “Because you have relied on the king of Syria, and have not relied on the LORD your God, therefore the army of the king of Syria has escaped out of your hand.
8 Vai Moru ļaudis un Libeji nebija liels karaspēks ar ļoti daudz ratiem un jātniekiem? Taču, kad tu uz To Kungu paļāvies, tad Viņš tos devis tavā rokā.
Weren’t the Ethiopians and the Lubim a huge army, with chariots and exceedingly many horsemen? Yet, because you relied on the LORD, he delivered them into your hand.
9 Jo Tā Kunga acis skatās pa visām zemēm, ka Viņš tos stiprina, kas ar skaidru sirdi pie viņa turas. Tu še esi aplam darījis; jo no šī laika būs kari pret tevi.
For the LORD’s eyes run back and forth throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect towards him. You have done foolishly in this; for from now on you will have wars.”
10 Bet Asa apskaitās pret to redzētāju un to ielika cietumā; jo viņš par to palika ļauns pret viņu. Un Asa spaidīja kādus no tiem ļaudīm tanī laikā.
Then Asa was angry with the seer, and put him in the prison; for he was in a rage with him because of this thing. Asa oppressed some of the people at the same time.
11 Un redzi, tie stāsti par Asu, ir tie pirmie, ir tie pēdējie, ir rakstīti Jūda un Israēla ķēniņu grāmatā.
Behold, the acts of Asa, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
12 Un savā trīsdesmit devītā valdīšanas gadā Asa palika slims ar kājām, un viņa slimība auga lielā augumā; viņš arī savā slimībā nemeklēja To Kungu, bet dziedniekus.
In the thirty-ninth year of his reign, Asa was diseased in his feet. His disease was exceedingly great; yet in his disease he didn’t seek the LORD, but just the physicians.
13 Tā Asa aizmiga pie saviem tēviem un nomira savā četrdesmit pirmā valdīšanas gadā.
Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the forty-first year of his reign.
14 Un to apraka viņa kapā, ko viņš priekš sevis bija licis rakt Dāvida pilī, un to lika uz gultu, ko ar dārgām zālēm un visādām kvēpināmām zālēm bija pildījuši pēc zāļotāju ziņas, un par viņu dedzināja (dārgas zāles) ar lielu dedzināšanu.
They buried him in his own tomb, which he had dug out for himself in David’s city, and laid him in the bed which was filled with sweet odours and various kinds of spices prepared by the perfumers’ art; and they made a very great fire for him.
