< Otra Ķēniņu 2 >
1 Kad nu Tas Kungs Eliju vētrā gribēja uzņemt debesīs, tad Elija ar Elišu gāja no Gilgalas.
Now when the Lord was about to take Elijah up to heaven in a great wind, Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
2 Un Elija sacīja uz Elišu: paliec jel šeitan, jo Tas Kungs mani sūtījis uz Bēteli. Bet Eliša sacīja: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvs un tava dvēsele dzīva, es tevi neatstāšu.
And Elijah said to Elisha, Come no farther for the Lord has sent me to Beth-el. But Elisha said, As the Lord is living and as your soul is living, I will not be parted from you. So they went down to Beth-el.
3 Un kad tie gāja uz Bēteli, tad tie praviešu bērni, kas bija Bētelē, izgāja pie Elišas un uz to sacīja: vai tu zini, ka Tas Kungs šodien tavu kungu paņems no tavas galvas? Un viņš sacīja: zinu gan, esiet tikai klusu!
And at Beth-el the sons of the prophets came out to Elisha and said, Has it been made clear to you that the Lord is going to take away your master from over you today? And he said, Yes, I have knowledge of it: say no more.
4 Un Elija uz to sacīja: Eliša, paliec jel šeitan, jo Tas Kungs mani sūtījis uz Jēriku. Bet tas sacīja: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvs un tava dvēsele dzīva, es tevi neatstāšu. Tā tie gāja uz Jēriku.
Then Elijah said to him, Come no farther, for the Lord has sent me to Jericho. But he said, As the Lord is living and as your soul is living, I will not be parted from you. So they went on to Jericho.
5 Tad tie praviešu bērni, kas bija Jērikū, piegāja pie Elišas un uz to sacīja: vai tu zini, ka Tas Kungs tavu kungu šodien paņems no tavas galvas? Un tas sacīja: zinu gan, esiet tikai klusu!
And at Jericho the sons of the prophets came up to Elisha and said to him, Has it been made clear to you that the Lord is going to take away your master from over you today? And he said in answer, Yes, I have knowledge of it: say no more.
6 Tad Elija uz to sacīja: paliec jel šeitan, jo Tas Kungs mani sūtījis pie Jardānes. Bet tas sacīja: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvs un tava dvēsele dzīva, es tevi neatstāšu. Tā tie gāja abi divi.
Then Elijah said to him, Come no farther, for the Lord has sent me to Jordan. But he said, As the Lord is living and as your soul is living, I will not be parted from you. So they went on together.
7 Un piecdesmit vīri no praviešu bērniem gāja un nostājās iepretim no tālienes; un tie abi stāvēja pie Jardānes.
And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went out and took their places facing them a long way off, while the two of them were by the edge of Jordan.
8 Tad Elija ņēma savu mēteli un to satina un sita ūdenī, un tas dalījās uz abējām pusēm, ka tie abi gāja cauri sausām kājām.
Then Elijah took off his robe, and, rolling it up, gave the water a blow with it, and the waters were parted, flowing back this way and that, so that they went over on dry land.
9 Kad tie nu bija cauri izgājuši, tad Elija sacīja uz Elišu: lūdz, ko man tev būs darīt, pirms es topu atņemts no tevis. Un Eliša sacīja: lai jel tavs gars divkārtīgā mērā ir uz manis.
And when they had come to the other side, Elijah said to Elisha, Say what you would have me do for you before I am taken from you. And Elisha said, Be pleased to let a special measure of your spirit be on me.
10 Un viņš sacīja: grūtu lietu tu esi lūdzis; ja tu mani redzēsi, kad es no tevis tapšu atņemts, tad tas tev tā notiks, bet ja ne, tad tas nenotiks.
And he said, You have made a hard request: still, if you see me when I am taken from you, you will get your desire; but if not, it will not be so.
11 Un šiem tā ejot un runājot, redzi, ugunīgi rati un ugunīgi zirgi nāca, kas tos abus šķīra. Tā Elija aizbrauca vētrā uz debesīm.
And while they went on their way, going on talking together, suddenly there were carriages and horses of fire separating them from one another and Elijah went up to heaven in a great wind.
12 Un Eliša to redzēja un brēca: mans tēvs, mans tēvs! Israēla rati un viņa jātnieki! Un viņš to vairs neredzēja. Un viņš sagrāba savas drēbes un tās saplēsa divos gabalos.
And when Elisha saw it he gave a cry, My father, my father, the carriages of Israel and its horsemen! And he saw him no longer; and he was full of grief.
13 Un viņš pacēla Elijas mēteli, kas tam bija nokritis, un griezās atpakaļ un stāvēja Jardānes malā.
Then he took up Elijah's robe, which had been dropped from him, and went back till he came to the edge of Jordan.
14 Un viņš ņēma Elijas mēteli, kas tam bija nokritis, un sita to ūdeni un sacīja: kur nu Viņš, Tas Kungs, Elijas Dievs? Un viņš sita to ūdeni, un tas dalījās uz abējām pusēm, un Eliša gāja cauri.
And he took Elijah's robe, which had been dropped from him, and giving the water a blow with it, said, Where is the Lord, the God of Elijah? and at his blow the waters were parted this way and that; and Elisha went over.
15 Kad nu tie praviešu bērni iepretim Jērikum viņu redzēja, tad tie sacīja: Elijas gars dus uz Elišas, un tie viņam gāja pretī un metās pie zemes viņa priekšā.
And when the sons of the prophets who were facing him at Jericho saw him, they said, The spirit of Elijah is resting on Elisha. And they came out to him, and went down on the earth before him.
16 Un tie uz viņu sacīja: redzi, starp taviem kalpiem ir piecdesmit spēcīgi vīri, lai tie iet un meklē tavu kungu: kad tik Tā Kunga Gars viņu nav paņēmis un nometis uz kādu kalnu vai kādā ielejā. Bet viņš sacīja: nesūtiet.
And they said, Your servants have with us here fifty strong men; be pleased to let them go in search of Elijah; for it may be that the spirit of the Lord has taken him up and put him down on some mountain or in some valley. But he said, Do not send them.
17 Bet tie vēl vairāk lūdza, kamēr palika vai kauns, un viņš sacīja: sūtiet. Un tie sūtīja piecdesmit vīrus un to meklēja trīs dienas un neatrada.
But when they kept on requesting him, he was shamed and said, Send, then. So they sent fifty men; but after searching for three days, they came back without having seen him.
18 Tad tie nāca atpakaļ pie viņa uz Jēriku, kur viņš bija palicis, un viņš uz tiem sacīja: vai es jums nesacīju: neejat?
And they came back to him, while he was still at Jericho; and he said to them, Did I not say to you, Go not?
19 Un tās pilsētas vīri sacīja uz Elišu: redzi jel, šās pilsētas vieta ir gan laba, kā mans kungs redz, bet ūdens ir nelāga un zeme neauglīga.
Now the men of the town said to Elisha, You see that the position of this town is good; but the water is bad, causing the young of the cattle to come to birth dead.
20 Un viņš sacīja: atnesiet man jaunu kausu un liekat sāli iekšā; un tie viņam to atnesa.
So he said, Get me a new vessel, and put salt in it; and they took it to him.
21 Un viņš izgāja pie tā ūdens avota un iemeta tur to sāli iekšā un sacīja: tā saka Tas Kungs: es šo ūdeni esmu veselīgu darījis, no tejienes vairs nenāks ne nāve nedz neauglība.
Then he went out to the spring from which the water came, and put salt in it, and said, The Lord says, Now I have made this water sweet; no longer will it be death-giving or unfertile.
22 Tā tas ūdens palika veselīgs līdz šai dienai pēc Elišas vārda, ko viņš bija runājis.
And the water was made sweet again to this day, as Elisha said.
23 Un viņš no turienes gāja uz Bēteli, un kad viņš pa ceļu uz augšu gāja, tad mazi puikas no pilsētas nāca ārā un to mēdīja un uz to sacīja: plikgalvi, nāc augšā, plikgalvi, nāc augšā!
Then from there he went up to Beth-el; and on his way, some little boys came out from the town and made sport of him, crying, Go up, old no-hair! go up, old no-hair!
24 Un viņš apgriezās, un tos ieraudzījis viņš tos nolādēja Tā Kunga Vārdā. Tad divi lāči iznāca no meža un no tiem saplosīja četrdesmit un divus bērnus.
And turning back, he saw them, and put a curse on them in the name of the Lord. And two she-bears came out of the wood and put forty-two of the children to death.
25 Un viņš no turienes gāja uz Karmeļa kalnu, un no turienes viņš griezās atpakaļ uz Samariju.
From there he went to Mount Carmel, and came back from there to Samaria.
