Otra Ķēniņu 18

1 Un Hosejas, Elas dēla, Israēla ķēniņa, trešā gadā Hizkija, Ahaza, Jūda ķēniņa, dēls, palika par ķēniņu.

And it came to pass, in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign.

2 Un viņš bija divdesmit pieci gadus vecs, kad palika par ķēniņu, un valdīja divdesmit deviņus gadus Jeruzālemē, un viņa mātei bija vārds Abi, Zaharijas meita.

Twenty-five years old, was he when he began to reign, and, twenty-nine years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, his mother’s name, was Abi, daughter of Zachariah.

3 Un tas darīja, kas Tam Kungam labi patika, tāpat kā viņa tēvs Dāvids bija darījis.

And he did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, —according to all that, David his father, did.

4 Tas nopostīja tos kalnu altārus un nolauzīja tos stabus un izdeldēja Astartes un sadragāja to vara čūsku, ko Mozus bija taisījis; jo līdz tam laikam Israēla bērni tai bija kvēpinājuši un to nosauca Neūstan (vara taisīta).

He, removed the high places, and brake in pieces the pillars, and cut down the Sacred Stem, —and beat in pieces the serpent of bronze that, Moses, had made, because, until those days, had the sons of Israel been burning incense thereunto, so he called it Nehushtan.

5 Viņš uzticējās Tam Kungam, Israēla Dievam, un pēc viņa nebija otrs tāds kā viņš no visiem Jūda ķēniņiem, arī priekš viņa tāds nebija bijis.

In Yahweh, God of Israel, did he trust, —so that, after him, was none like him, among all the kings of Judah, nor that were before him;

6 Jo viņš pieķērās Tam Kungam un viņš no Tā neatkāpās un viņš turēja tos baušļus, ko Tas Kungs caur Mozu bija pavēlējis.

and he did cleave unto Yahweh, he turned not away from following him, —but kept his commandments, which, Yahweh, commanded, Moses.

7 Un Tas Kungs bija ar viņu, ka viss, kur viņš izgāja, labi izdevās. Viņš atkāpās arīdzan no Asīrijas ķēniņa un tam vairs nekalpoja.

So Yahweh was with him, whithersoever he went forth, he prospered, —and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not.

8 Viņš kāva arīdzan Fīlistus līdz Gazai un viņas robežām, gan pilīs, gan stiprās pilsētās.

He, smote the Philistines, as far as Gazah, and her boundaries, —from the watchmen’s tower even to the fortified city.

9 Un ķēniņa Hizkijas ceturtā gadā, tas ir Hosejas, Elas dēla, Israēla ķēniņa, septītais gads, Salmanasers, Asīrijas ķēniņš, cēlās pret Samariju un apmeta lēģeri pret viņu.

And it came to pass, in the fourth year of King Hezekiah—the same, was the seventh year of Hosea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and laid siege against it;

10 Un to uzņēma pēc trim gadiem, Hizkijas sestā gada, tas ir Hosejas, Israēla ķēniņa, devītais gads, - tad Samarija tapa uzņemta.

and he captured it at the end of three years, in the sixth year of Hezekiah, —the same, is the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, was Samaria captured.

11 Un Asīrijas ķēniņš aizveda Israēli uz Asīriju un tiem lika dzīvot Halahā un pie Haboras, Gozanas upes, un Medijas pilsētās,

So the king of Assyria drave away Israel to Assyria, —and settled them in Halah, and in Habor, by the river of Gozan, and the mountains of Media:

12 Tāpēc ka tie Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, balsij nebija klausījuši, bet viņa derību pārkāpuši, un visu, ko Mozus, Tā Kunga kalps, bija pavēlējis, un to nebija nedz klausījuši nedz darījuši.

because they hearkened not unto the voice of Yahweh their God, but transgressed his covenant, all that Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded, —they neither hearkened nor performed.

13 Bet ķēniņa Hizkijas četrpadsmitā gadā Sanheribs, Asīrijas ķēniņš, cēlās pret visām stiprām Jūda pilsētām un tās uzņēma.

And, in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, came up Sennacherib king of Assyria, against all the fortified cities of Judah, and took them.

14 Tad Hizkija, Jūda ķēniņš, sūtīja pie Asīrijas ķēniņa uz Laķisu un lika sacīt: es esmu apgrēkojies, griezies atpakaļ no manis, es nesīšu, ko tu man uzliksi. Tad Asīrijas ķēniņš Hizkijam, Jūda ķēniņam, uzlika trīssimt talentus sudraba un trīsdesmit talentus zelta.

Then sent Hezekiah king of Judah unto the king of Assyria, to Lachish, saying—I have sinned, Return from me, What thou shalt lay upon me, I will bear. So the king of Assyria appointed unto Hezekiah king of Judah, three hundred talents of silver, and thirty talents of gold.

15 Un Hizkija deva visu sudrabu, kas atradās Tā Kunga namā un tā ķēniņa nama mantās.

And Hezekiah delivered up all the silver that was found in the house of Yahweh, and in the treasuries of the house of the king.

16 Tanī laikā Hizkija noplēsa (to zeltu) no Tā Kunga nama durvīm un no tiem stabiem, ko Hizkija, Jūda ķēniņš, bija apkalis ar zeltu, un to deva Asīrijas ķēniņam.

At that time, Hezekiah cut off the doors of the temple of Yahweh, and the columns, which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, —and gave them unto the king of Assyria.

17 Bet Asīrijas ķēniņš sūtīja Tartanu (augsto sargu), Rabsarisu (augsto valdoni) un Rabzaku (augsto dzērienu devēju) no Laķisas pie ķēniņa Hizkijas ar lielu karaspēku uz Jeruzālemi, un tie cēlās un gāja uz Jeruzālemi. Un kad tie bija cēlušies un nonākuši, tad tie nostājās pie augšēja dīķa ūdens grāvja, ceļa malā pie vadmalnieku tīruma.

And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rab-saris and Rab-shakeh, from Lachish unto King Hezekiah, with a heavy force to Jerusalem, —so they came up and drew near to Jerusalem, and took their stand by the upper channel of the pool, which is in the highway of the fuller’s field.

18 Un tie sauca ķēniņu. Tad pie tiem izgāja nama uzraugs Elijaķims, Hilķijas dēls, un skrīveris Šebna un kanclers Joaks, Asafa dēls.

Then called they for the king, and there went out unto them Eliakim son of Hilkiah, who was over the household, —and Shebnah, the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph, the recorder.

19 Un Rabzakus uz tiem sacīja: sakāt jel Hizkijam: tā saka tas lielais ķēniņš, Asīrijas ķēniņš: kas tas tāds patvērums, uz ko tu paļaujies?

And Rab-shakeh said unto them—Pray you, say unto Hezekiah, —Thus, saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What trust is this wherewith thou dost trust?

20 Tu saki tukšu vārdu, diezgan esot padoma un spēka uz karu. Uz ko tad tu paļaujies, ka tu no manis esi atkritis?

Thou hast said—they are only words of the lips!—Counsel and might [have I] for the war. Now, in whom dost thou trust, that thou hast rebelled against me?

21 Nu redzi, tu paļaujies uz to salūzušo niedri, uz Ēģipti. Kas uz to atspiežas, tam tā ies rokā un to pārdurs. Tāds ir Faraons, Ēģiptes ķēniņš, visiem, kas uz viņu paļaujas.

Now, lo! thou dost trust thyself on the support of this bruised cane, on Egypt, whereon, if a man lean, it will enter his hand and lay it open, —so, is Pharaoh king of Egypt, to all who trust upon him.

22 Bet ja jūs uz mani sakāt: mēs paļaujamies uz To Kungu, savu Dievu: vai tas nav, kam kalnus un altārus Hizkija ir nopostījis un sacījis uz Jūdu un Jeruzālemi: priekš šī altāra, kas ir Jeruzālemē, jums būs pielūgt?

But, if ye should say unto me, In Yahweh our God, do we trust, Then is that not he whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath removed, and said unto Judah, and unto Jerusalem—Before this altar, shall ye bow down, in Jerusalem?

23 Nu tad, noderi ar manu kungu, Asīrijas ķēniņu, un es tev došu divtūkstoš zirgus, ja tev ir jātnieki, ko tiem likt virsū.

Now, therefore, pledge thyself, I pray thee, with my lord, the king of Assyria, —that I supply thee with two thousand horses, if thou, on thy part, be able to set riders upon them.

24 Kā tad tu varēsi atsist atpakaļ vienu pašu virsnieku no mana kunga vismazākiem kalpiem? Bet tu paļaujies uz Ēģipti, ratu un jātnieku dēļ.

How then wilt thou turn back the face of one pasha of the least of my lord’s servants? Or hast thou, on thy part, trusted to Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?

25 Vai tad nu es bez Tā Kunga esmu cēlies pret šo vietu, to izpostīt? Tas Kungs uz mani sacījis: celies pret šo zemi un izposti to.

Now, is it, without Yahweh, that I have come up against this place, to destroy it? Yahweh himself, said unto me, Go thou up against this land, and destroy it.

26 Tad Elijaķims, Hilķijas dēls, un Šebna un Joaks sacīja uz Rabzaku: runā jel ar saviem kalpiem sīriski, - mēs to gan protam - un nerunā ar mums jūdiski priekš šo ļaužu ausīm, kas ir uz mūra.

Then said Eliakim son of Hilkiah, and Shebnah, and Joah, unto Rab-shakeh: Speak, we pray thee, unto thy servants in the, Syrian, language, for, we, can, understand, it, —and do not speak with us in, the Jews’, language, in the ears of the people who are upon the wall.

27 Bet Rabzakus uz tiem sacīja: vai mans Kungs mani sūtījis pie tava kunga un pie tevis, šos vārdus runāt? Vai ne pie tiem vīriem, kas sēž uz mūra, kam līdz ar jums būs jāēd savi sūdi un jādzer savi mīzali.

But Rab-shakeh said unto them—Is it, concerning thy lord, and concerning thee, that my lord hath sent me to speak these things? Is it not concerning the men who are tarrying upon the wall, that they may eat their own dung and drink their own water with you?

28 Un Rabzakus nostājās un sauca ar stipru balsi jūdiski un runāja un sacīja: klausāties tā lielā ķēniņa, Asīrijas ķēniņa, vārdus.

So then Rab-shakeh took his stand, and cried out with a loud voice, in, the Jews’, language, —and spake, and said, Hear ye the message of the great king, the king of Assyria: —

29 Tā saka ķēniņš: lai Hizkija jūs neapmāna, jo viņš jūs nevarēs izglābt no manas rokas.

Thus, saith the king: Let not Hezekiah deceive you, for he shall not he able to deliver you out of his hand;

30 Lai arī Hizkija jums nedara cerību uz To Kungu sacīdams: tiešām, Tas Kungs mūs izglābs un šī pilsēta netaps dota Asīrijas ķēniņa rokā.

Neither let Hezekiah cause you to trust in Yahweh, saying, Yahweh, will, certainly deliver, us, —this city, therefore, shall not be given over into the hand of the king of Assyria.

31 Neklausāties uz Hizkiju. Jo tā saka Asīrijas ķēniņš: deriet ar mani mieru un nāciet pie manis ārā, tad ikviens ēdīs no sava vīna koka un ikviens no sava vīģes koka un ikviens dzers ūdeni no savas akas,

Do not hearken unto Hezekiah, —for, thus, saith the king of Assyria, Deal with me thankfully, and come out unto me, then shall ye eat—every one of his own vine, and every one of his own fig-tree, and drink every one the waters of his own cistern;

32 Kamēr es nākšu un jūs aizvedīšu tādā zemē, kāda ir jūsu zeme, labības un vīna zeme, maizes un vīna dārzu zeme, eļļas koku, eļļas un medus zeme, - tad jūs paliksiet dzīvi un nemirsiet. Bet Hizkijam neklausiet, jo viņš jūs pieviļ sacīdams: Tas Kungs mūs izpestīs.

Until I come and take you, into a land like your own land—A land of corn and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil olive and honey, so shall ye live, and not die, —But do not hearken unto Hezekiah, for he would persuade you, saying, Yahweh, will deliver us!

33 Vai gan pagānu dievi ikviens savu zemi izglābuši no Asiriešu ķēniņa rokas?

Have, the gods of the nations, at all delivered, any one of them, his country, out of the hand of the king of Assyria?

34 Kur ir Hamatas un Arpadas dievi? Kur ir Sefarvaimas, Enas un Ivas dievi? Vai tie gan izglābuši Samariju no manas rokas?

Where are the gods of Hamath, and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena and Ivvah? Yea, did they deliver Samaria out of my hand?

35 Kurš no visas pasaules dieviem izglābis savu zemi no manas rokas? Kā tad Tas Kungs Jeruzālemi izglābs no manas rokas?

Who are they, among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country, out of my hand, —that, Yahweh, should deliver, Jerusalem, out of my hand?

36 Bet tie ļaudis cieta klusu un viņam neatbildēja neviena vārda, jo ķēniņš bija pavēlējis un sacījis: jums nebūs viņam atbildēt.

But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word, —for, the command of the king, it was, saying—Ye must not answer him.

37 Tad nama uzraugs Elijaķims, Hilķijas dēls, un skrīveris Šebna un kanclers Joaks, Asapa dēls, nāca pie Hizkijas ar saplēstām drēbēm un viņam stāstīja Rabzakus vārdus.

Then came in Eliakim son of Hilkiah who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah son of Asaph the recorder, unto Hezekiah, with rent clothes, —and they told him the words of Rab-shakeh.
