< Otra Laiku 32 >
1 Pēc šīm lietām un šī ticības darba Sanheribs, Asīrijas ķēniņš, nāca un cēlās pret Jūdu un apmetās pret tām stiprām pilsētām un domāja tās raut pie sevis.
After these things, and after this manner of truth, Sennacherib, the king of the Assyrians arrived. And entering Judah, he besieged the fortified cities, desiring to seize them.
2 Kad nu Hizkija redzēja, ka Sanheribs atnāca un bija apņēmies pret Jeruzālemi karot,
And when Hezekiah had seen this, specifically that Sennacherib had arrived, and that the entire force of the war was turning against Jerusalem,
3 Tad viņš sprieda ar saviem lielkungiem un varoņiem, aiztaisīt avotu ūdeņus ārpus pilsētas, un tie tam palīdzēja.
he took counsel with the rulers and with the most valiant men, so that they might obstruct the heads of the springs which were beyond the city. And with everyone discerning the same judgment about this,
4 Un daudz ļaužu sapulcējās, kas visus avotus aiztaisīja, arī to upi, kas vidū caur zemi tecēja, jo tie sacīja: kāpēc lai Asiriešu ķēniņi nākdami atrod daudz ūdens?
he gathered together a great multitude, and they obstructed all the springs, and the brook which was flowing through the midst of the land, saying: “Otherwise, the kings of the Assyrians might arrive and find an abundance of water.”
5 Un viņš ņēmās drošu prātu un uztaisīja visu mūri, kur tas bija plīsis, un to uzvilka līdz torņiem, un ārā viņš taisīja vēl citu mūri un nostiprināja Millu Dāvida pilsētā, un taisīja daudz ieročus un bruņas.
Also, acting industriously, he built up the entire wall that had been broken apart. And he constructed towers upon it, and another wall outside it. And he repaired Millo, in the City of David. And he made all kinds of weapons and shields.
6 Un viņš iecēla kara virsniekus pār tiem ļaudīm un tos sapulcināja pie sevis laukā pie pilsētas vārtiem un tiem piekodināja un sacīja:
And he appointed leaders of the warriors within the army. And he summoned them all to the wide street of the gate of the city. And he spoke to their heart, saying:
7 Esiet stipri un ņematies drošu prātu, nebīstaties un neizbaiļojaties priekš Asiriešu ķēniņa, nedz priekš visiem tiem pulkiem, kas pie viņa, jo pie mums ir vairāk, nekā pie viņa.
“Act manfully and be strengthened. Do not be afraid. Neither should you dread the king of the Assyrians and the entire multitude that is with him. For many more are with us than with him.
8 Ar viņu ir miesas elkonis, bet ar mums ir Tas Kungs, mūsu Dievs, mums palīdzēt un vest mūsu karus. Un tie ļaudis paļāvās uz Hizkijas, Jūda ķēniņa, vārdiem.
For with him is an arm of flesh; with us is the Lord our God, who is our helper, and who fights for us.” And the people were strengthened by this type of words from Hezekiah, the king of Judah.
9 Pēc tam Sanheribs, Asīrijas ķēniņš, sūtīja savus kalpus uz Jeruzālemi (bet viņš pats bija pie Laķisa un pie viņa bija viss viņa valsts spēks) pie Hizkijas, Jūda ķēniņa, un pie visas Jūdu cilts, kas bija Jeruzālemē, un lika sacīt:
After these things, Sennacherib, the king of the Assyrians, sent his servants to Jerusalem, (for he and his entire army were besieging Lachish) to Hezekiah, the king of Judah, and to all the people who were in the city, saying:
10 Tā saka Sanheribs, Asīrijas ķēniņš: uz ko jūs paļaujaties, palikdami ieslēgti Jeruzālemē?
“Thus says Sennacherib, the king of the Assyrians: In whom do you have faith, as you sit besieged in Jerusalem?
11 Vai Hizkija jūs nepiekrāpj un jūs nenodod nāvei caur badu un slāpēm, sacīdams: Tas Kungs, mūsu Dievs, mūs atpestīs no Asiriešu ķēniņa rokas?
Does not Hezekiah deceive you, so that he would deliver you to die from hunger and thirst, by affirming that the Lord your God will free you from the hand of the king of the Assyrians?
12 Vai šis nav tas Hizkija, kas viņa kalnus un altārus nopostījis un uz Jūdu un Jeruzālemi runājis un sacījis: viena altāra priekšā jums būs pielūgt un uz tā kvēpināt?
Is this not the same Hezekiah who destroyed his own high places and altars, and who instructed Judah and Jerusalem, saying: ‘You shall worship before one altar, and you shall burn incense upon it?’
13 Vai nezināt, ko es un mani tēvi esam darījuši visām pasaules tautām? Vai pasaules tautu dievi varēja izglābt savas zemes no manas rokas?
Do you not know what I and my fathers have done to all the peoples of the lands? Have the gods of the nations and all the lands prevailed so as to free their region from my hand?
14 Kurš ir no visiem šo tautu dieviem, ko mani tēvi izdeldējuši, kas savus ļaudis varējis izglābt no manas rokas, ka jūsu Dievs jūs izglābtu no manas rokas?
Who is there, out of all the gods of the nations that my fathers destroyed, who is able to rescue his people from my hand, so that now also your God would be able to rescue you from this hand?
15 Nu tad, lai Hizkija jūs nepieviļ, un neliekaties tā pārrunāties un neticat viņam. Jo ja nevienas citas tautas un valsts dievs nav varējis izglābt savus ļaudis no manas rokas un no manu tēvu rokas, tad jūsu Dievs ne tik jūs neizglābs no manas rokas.
Therefore, let not Hezekiah deceive or delude you with vain persuasion. And you should not believe him. For if no god out of all the nations and kingdoms was able to free his people from my hand, and from the hand of my fathers, consequently neither will your God be able to rescue you from my hand.”
16 Un viņa kalpi runāja vēl vairāk pret Dievu, To Kungu, un pret Hizkiju, viņa kalpu.
Then too, his servants were speaking many other things against the Lord God, and against his servant Hezekiah.
17 Viņš rakstīja arī grāmatas, To Kungu, Israēla Dievu, zaimodams un pret viņu tā runādams un sacīdams: tā kā pasaules tautu dievi nav izglābuši savus ļaudis no manas rokas, tāpat arī Hizkijas Dievs Savus ļaudis neizglābs no manas rokas.
Also, he wrote letters full of blasphemy against the Lord God of Israel. And against him he said: “Just as the gods of other nations were unable to free their people from my hand, so also is the God of Hezekiah unable to rescue his people from this hand.”
18 Un tie sauca ar stipru balsi Jūdiski pret Jeruzālemes ļaudīm, kas uz mūra bija, tos izbiedēt un iztrūcināt, ka pilsētu varētu ieņemt.
Moreover, he also shouted with a great clamor, in the language of the Jews, toward the people who were sitting upon the walls of Jerusalem, so that he might frighten them and so seize the city.
19 Un tie runāja pret Jeruzālemes Dievu tāpat, kā pret pasaules tautu dieviem, kas ir cilvēku roku darbs.
And he was speaking against the God of Jerusalem, just as against the gods of the peoples of the earth, which are works of the hands of men.
20 Bet ķēniņš Hizkija un pravietis Ezaīja, Amoca dēls, lūdza par to un sauca uz debesīm.
And Hezekiah the king, and Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, prayed against this blasphemy, and they cried out to heaven.
21 Un Tas Kungs sūtīja eņģeli, kas nomaitāja visus varenos karavīrus un lielkungus un virsniekus Asīrijas ķēniņa lēģerī, ka tas ar kaunu atkal griezās atpakaļ uz savu zemi. Un kad viņš sava dieva namā gāja, tad tie, kas no viņa miesām bija cēlušies, viņu nokāva ar zobenu.
And the Lord sent an Angel, who struck all the experienced men and warriors, and the leaders of the army of the king of the Assyrians. And he returned in disgrace to his own land. And when he had entered the house of his god, the sons who had gone forth from his loins killed him with the sword.
22 Tā Tas Kungs atpestīja Hizkiju un Jeruzālemes iedzīvotājus no Sanheriba, Asiriešu ķēniņa, rokas un no visu citu rokas un tos pasargāja visapkārt.
And the Lord saved Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib, the king of the Assyrians, and from the hand of all. And he presented to them peace on every side.
23 Un daudzi nesa dāvanas Tam Kungam uz Jeruzālemi un dārgas lietas Hizkijam, Jūda ķēniņam, tā ka viņš pēc tam bija paaugstināts visu tautu priekšā.
And now many were bringing victims and sacrifices to the Lord in Jerusalem, and gifts to Hezekiah, the king of Judah. And after these things, he was exalted before all the nations.
24 Tanī laikā Hizkija palika slims uz miršanu un tas lūdza To Kungu, un Viņš uz to runāja un tam deva vienu brīnuma zīmi.
In those days, Hezekiah was sick, even unto death, and he prayed to the Lord. And he heeded him, and gave to him a sign.
25 Bet Hizkija neatmaksāja tā, kā viņam bija labi darīts, jo viņa sirds sāka lepoties, tāpēc nāca liela dusmība pār viņu un pār Jūdu un Jeruzālemi.
But he did not repay according to the benefits which he had received, for his heart was lifted up. And so wrath was brought against him, and against Judah and Jerusalem.
26 Tad Hizkija pazemojās savas sirds lepnības dēļ ar Jeruzālemes iedzīvotājiem, tāpēc Tā Kunga bardzība pār viņiem nenāca, kamēr, Hizkija dzīvoja.
And after this, he was humbled, because he had exalted his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. And therefore the wrath of the Lord did not overwhelm them in the days of Hezekiah.
27 Un Hizkijam bija ļoti daudz bagātības un goda un viņš sev taisīja mantu kambarus sudrabam un zeltam un dārgiem akmeņiem un dārgām zālēm un priekšturamām bruņām un visādiem dārgiem rīkiem,
Now Hezekiah was wealthy and very famous. And he gathered for himself many treasures of silver and gold and precious stones, of aromatics, and all kinds of weapons, and vessels of great price,
28 Un klētis lauku augļiem, labībai, vīnam un eļļai un kūtis visādiem lopiem un laidarus ganāmiem pulkiem.
and also repositories of grain, wine, and oil, and stalls for every beast of burden, and fencing for cattle.
29 Viņš sev arī uztaisīja pilsētas, un tam bija avis un vērši lielā pulkā; jo Dievs tam deva ļoti lielu mantu.
And he built for himself cities. For indeed, he had innumerable herds and flocks of sheep. For the Lord had given to him an exceedingly great substance.
30 Un šis Hizkija aiztaisīja Ģiona ūdens augšizteku un to vadīja uz leju pret vakara pusi uz Dāvida pilsētu, un Hizkijam viss viņa darbs laimējās.
This same Hezekiah was the one who blocked the upper font of the waters of Gihon, and who diverted them down to the western part of the City of David. In all his works, he prosperously accomplished whatever he willed.
31 Bet kad Bābeles lielkungi, kas pie viņa bija sūtīti, nāca vaicāt pēc tās brīnuma zīmes, kas tai zemē bija notikusi, tad Dievs viņu tā atstāja, ka to kārdināja, lai taptu zināms, kas būtu viņa sirdī.
Yet still, concerning the legates from the leaders of Babylon, who had been sent to him so that they might inquire about the portent which had happened upon the earth, God permitted him to be tempted, so that everything might be made known which was in his heart.
32 Un kas vēl stāstāms par Hizkiju un viņa dievbijību, redzi, tas rakstīts pravieša Jesajas, Amoca dēla, parādīšanā un Jūda un Israēla ķēniņu grāmatā.
Now the rest of the words of Hezekiah, and his mercies, have been written in the vision of the prophet Isaiah, the son of Amos, and in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
33 Un Hizkija aizmiga pie saviem tēviem, un to apraka Dāvida bērnu augstākā kapu vietā, un visa Jūda valsts un Jeruzālemes iedzīvotāji tam parādīja godu, kad tas bija nomiris, un viņa dēls Manasus palika par ķēniņu viņa vietā.
And Hezekiah slept with his fathers. And they buried him above the sepulchers of the sons of David. And all of Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, celebrated his funeral. And his son, Manasseh, reigned in his place.
