< Otra Laiku 34 >
1 Astoņus gadus Josija bija vecs, kad palika par ķēniņu, un valdīja trīsdesmit vienu gadu Jeruzālemē.
Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem one and thirty years.
2 Un viņš darīja, kas Tam Kungam labi patika, un staigāja sava tēva Dāvida ceļos un neatkāpās ne pa labo, ne pa kreiso roku.
And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the ways of David his father, and declined neither to the right hand, nor to the left.
3 Jo savas valdīšanas astotā gada, kad vēl bija jauns, viņš sāka meklēt sava tēva Dāvida Dievu, un divpadsmitā gadā viņš Jūdu un Jeruzālemi sāka šķīstīt no elku kalniem un Ašerām un elku tēliem un lietām bildēm.
For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet young, he began to seek after the God of David his father: and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the groves, and the carved images, and the molten images.
4 Un priekš viņa acīm Baālu altāri tapa salauzīti, un tos saules stabus tur virsū viņš nocirta, un tās Ašeras un tos elku tēlus un tās lietās bildes viņš salauzīja un tās darīja par pīšļiem un tos kaisīja uz to kapiem, kas tām bija upurējuši.
And they broke down the altars of Baalim in his presence; and the images, that were on high above them, he cut down; and the groves, and the carved images, and the molten images, he broke in pieces, and made dust of them, and strewed it on the graves of them that had sacrificed to them.
5 Un elku priesteru kaulus viņš sadedzināja uz viņu altāriem, un tā viņš šķīstīja Jūdu un Jeruzālemi.
And he burnt the bones of the priests on their altars, and cleansed Judah and Jerusalem.
6 Arī pa Manasus un Efraīma un Sīmeana pilsētām līdz Naftalum, pa viņu posta vietām visapkārt,
And so did he in the cities of Manasseh, and Ephraim, and Simeon, even to Naphtali, with their mattocks round about.
7 Viņš nolauzīja tos altārus, un tās Ašeras, un tos elka tēlus viņš satrieca un sadragāja, un nocirta visus saules stabus pa visu Israēla zemi, un griezās atpakaļ uz Jeruzālemi.
And when he had broken down the altars and the groves, and had beaten the graven images into powder, and cut down all the idols throughout all the land of Israel, he returned to Jerusalem.
8 Savas valdīšanas astoņpadsmitā gadā, kad to zemi un to namu bija šķīstījis, viņš sūtīja Safanu, Acalijas dēlu, un Maāseju, pilsētas virsnieku, un Joaku, Joakasa dēlu, to kancleri, ka tie atkal uzkoptu Tā Kunga, sava Dieva namu.
Now in the eighteenth year of his reign, when he had purged the land, and the house, he sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, and Maaseiah the governor of the city, and Joah the son of Joahaz the recorder, to repair the house of the LORD his God.
9 Un tie nāca pie tā augstā priestera Hilķijas, un tiem deva to naudu, kas bija sanesta Dieva namā, ko leviti, tie sliekšņa sargi, bija sakrājuši no Manasus, no Efraīma un no visiem Israēla atlikušiem un no visas Jūda un Benjamina cilts un no Jeruzālemes iedzīvotājiem.
And when they came to Hilkiah the high priest, they delivered the money that was brought into the house of God, which the Levites that kept the doors had gathered of the hand of Manasseh and Ephraim, and of all the remnant of Israel, and of all Judah and Benjamin; and they returned to Jerusalem.
10 Un tie to deva tiem darba vedējiem rokā, kas pār Tā Kunga namu bija iecelti, un tie darba vedēji to deva tiem strādniekiem, kas pie Tā Kunga nama strādāja, to namu sataisīt un uzkopt.
And they put it in the hand of the workmen that had the oversight of the house of the LORD, and they gave it to the workmen that worked in the house of the LORD, to repair and amend the house:
11 Un tie to deva tiem amatniekiem un nama taisītājiem, pirkt izcirstus akmeņus un kokus sijām un baļķus tiem namiem, ko Jūda ķēniņi bija postā pametuši.
Even to the artificers and builders gave they it, to buy hewn stone, and timber for couplings, and to floor the houses which the kings of Judah had destroyed.
12 Un tie vīri darīja savu darbu uzticīgi. Un viņu uzraugi bija Jakats un Obadija, leviti no Merarus bērniem, un Mešulams no Kehāta bērniem; tie to darbu uzraudzīja; un visi tie leviti mācēja spēlēt mūzikas rīkus,
And the men did the work faithfully: and the overseers of them were Jahath and Obadiah, the Levites, of the sons of Merari; and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathites, to set it forward; and other of the Levites, all that could skill of instruments of music.
13 Un bija pār nastu nesējiem un uzraugi pār visiem darba strādniekiem. Un citi leviti bija skrīveri un darba vedēji un vārtu sargi.
Also they were over the bearers of burdens, and were overseers of all that worked the work in any manner of service: and of the Levites there were scribes, and officers, and porters.
14 Un kad tie to naudu izņēma, kas bija sanesta Tā Kunga namā, tad priesteris Hilķija atrada Tā Kunga bauslības grāmatu, kas caur Mozu dota.
And when they brought out the money that was brought into the house of the LORD, Hilkiah the priest found a book of the law of the LORD given by Moses.
15 Un Hilķija atbildēja un sacīja uz skrīveri Safanu: es esmu atradis to bauslības grāmatu Tā Kunga namā. Un Hilķija deva Safanam to grāmatu.
And Hilkiah answered and said to Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of the LORD. And Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan.
16 Un Safans nesa to grāmatu ķēniņam un teica ķēniņam un sacīja: visu, ko tu saviem kalpiem pavēlējis, to tie dara.
And Shaphan carried the book to the king, and brought the king word back again, saying, All that was committed to your servants, they do it.
17 Un tie izbēruši to naudu, kas Tā Kunga namā atrasta, un to devuši tiem darba vedējiem un strādniekiem.
And they have gathered together the money that was found in the house of the LORD, and have delivered it into the hand of the overseers, and to the hand of the workmen.
18 Un skrīveris Safans ķēniņam teica un sacīja: priesteris Hilķija man ir devis grāmatu; un Safans no tās lasīja ķēniņam priekšā.
Then Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, Hilkiah the priest has given me a book. And Shaphan read it before the king.
19 Kad nu ķēniņš dzirdēja tos bauslības vārdus, tad viņš saplēsa savas drēbes.
And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the law, that he rent his clothes.
20 Un ķēniņš pavēlēja Hilķijam un Aīkamam, Safana dēlam, un Abdonam, Mihas dēlam, un skrīverim Safanam, un Azajam, ķēniņa kalpam, un sacīja:
And the king commanded Hilkiah, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Abdon the son of Micah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah a servant of the king’s, saying,
21 Ejat, vaicājiet To Kungu par mani un par visiem atlikušiem iekš Israēla un Jūda, par šās grāmatas vārdiem, kas atrasta. Jo Tā Kunga bardzība ir liela, kas pret mums iedegusies, tāpēc ka mūsu tēvi nav turējuši Tā Kunga vārdu, nedz to darījuši, kas viss šai grāmatā rakstīts.
Go, inquire of the LORD for me, and for them that are left in Israel and in Judah, concerning the words of the book that is found: for great is the wrath of the LORD that is poured out on us, because our fathers have not kept the word of the LORD, to do after all that is written in this book.
22 Tad Hilķija ar ķēniņa vīriem nogāja pie pravietes Uldas, Šaluma, Takeata dēla Azras dēla, tā drēbju sarga sievas, (tā dzīvoja Jeruzālemē otrā pusē, ) un to uz viņu runāja.
And Hilkiah, and they that the king had appointed, went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvath, the son of Hasrah, keeper of the wardrobe; (now she dwelled in Jerusalem in the college: ) and they spoke to her to that effect.
23 Un viņa uz tiem sacīja: tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs: sakāt tam vīram, kas jūs pie Manis sūtījis:
And she answered them, Thus says the LORD God of Israel, Tell you the man that sent you to me,
24 Tā saka Tas Kungs: redzi, Es sūtīšu nelaimi šai vietai un viņas iedzīvotājiem, visus tos lāstus, kas tai grāmatā rakstīti, ko tie lasījuši Jūda ķēniņa priekšā;
Thus says the LORD, Behold, I will bring evil on this place, and on the inhabitants thereof, even all the curses that are written in the book which they have read before the king of Judah:
25 Tāpēc ka tie Mani atstājuši un kvēpinājuši citiem dieviem, Mani kaitinādami ar visiem saviem roku darbiem, tad Mana bardzība pret šo vietu iedegsies un neizdzisīs.
Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands; therefore my wrath shall be poured out on this place, and shall not be quenched.
26 Bet uz Jūda ķēniņu, kas jūs sūtījis, To Kungu vaicāt, jums tā būs sacīt: tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs, par tiem vārdiem, ko tu esi dzirdējis.
And as for the king of Judah, who sent you to inquire of the LORD, so shall you say to him, Thus says the LORD God of Israel concerning the words which you have heard;
27 Tādēļ ka tava sirds ir mīksta palikusi un tu esi pazemojies Dieva priekšā, dzirdēdams Viņa vārdus pret šo vietu un viņas iedzīvotājiem, un esi pazemojies Manā priekšā un saplēsis savas drēbes un raudājis Manā priekšā, tad Es tevi esmu paklausījis, saka Tas Kungs.
Because your heart was tender, and you did humble yourself before God, when you heard his words against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, and humbled yourself before me, and did rend your clothes, and weep before me; I have even heard you also, says the LORD.
28 Redzi, Es tevi likšu pie taviem tēviem, un tu ar mieru tapsi glabāts savā kapā pie viņiem, un tavas acis neredzēs visu to ļaunumu, ko Es sūtīšu šai vietai un viņas iedzīvotājiem. Un tie ķēniņam atsacīja šos vārdus.
Behold, I will gather you to your fathers, and you shall be gathered to your grave in peace, neither shall your eyes see all the evil that I will bring on this place, and on the inhabitants of the same. So they brought the king word again.
29 Tad ķēniņš sūtīja un sapulcināja visus Jūda un Jeruzālemes vecajus.
Then the king sent and gathered together all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem.
30 Un ķēniņš gāja Tā Kunga namā līdz ar visiem Jūda vīriem un Jeruzālemes iedzīvotājiem, un ar priesteriem un levitiem un visiem ļaudīm, lieliem un maziem, un priekš viņu ausīm tapa lasīti visi derības vārdi no tās grāmatas, kas bija atrasta Tā Kunga namā.
And the king went up into the house of the LORD, and all the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the priests, and the Levites, and all the people, great and small: and he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant that was found in the house of the LORD.
31 Un ķēniņš stāvēja savā vietā un derēja derību Tā Kunga priekšā, Tam Kungam pakaļ staigāt un no visas savas sirds un no visas savas dvēseles turēt Viņa baušļus un Viņa liecības un Viņa likumus un darīt tos derības vārdus, kas rakstīti šinī grāmatā.
And the king stood in his place, and made a covenant before the LORD, to walk after the LORD, and to keep his commandments, and his testimonies, and his statutes, with all his heart, and with all his soul, to perform the words of the covenant which are written in this book.
32 Un viņš uzņēma tai derībā visus, kas Jeruzālemē un Benjaminā atradās, un Jeruzālemes iedzīvotāji darīja pēc Dieva, savu tēvu Dieva, derības.
And he caused all that were present in Jerusalem and Benjamin to stand to it. And the inhabitants of Jerusalem did according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers.
33 Un Josija izdeldēja visas negantības no visām zemēm, kas Israēla bērniem piederēja, un darīja, ka visi, kas iekš Israēla atradās, kalpoja Tam Kungam, savam Dievam. Kamēr viņš dzīvoja, tie neatkāpās no Tā Kunga, savu tēvu Dieva.
And Josiah took away all the abominations out of all the countries that pertained to the children of Israel, and made all that were present in Israel to serve, even to serve the LORD their God. And all his days they departed not from following the LORD, the God of their fathers.
