< Otra Ķēniņu 2 >
1 Kad nu Tas Kungs Eliju vētrā gribēja uzņemt debesīs, tad Elija ar Elišu gāja no Gilgalas.
So it came about, when Yahweh was going to take up Elijah by a whirlwind into heaven, that Elijah left 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.
Elijah said to Elisha, “Stay here, please, because Yahweh has sent me to Bethel.” Elisha replied, “As Yahweh lives, and as you live, I will not leave you.” So they went down to Bethel.
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!
The sons of the prophets who were at Bethel came to Elisha and said to him, “Do you know that Yahweh will take away your master from you today?” Elisha replied, “Yes, I know it, but do not talk about it.”
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.
Elijah said to him, “Elisha, wait here, please, for Yahweh has sent me to Jericho.” Then Elisha replied, “As Yahweh lives, and as you live, I will not leave you.” So they went 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!
Then the sons of the prophets who were at Jericho came to Elisha and said to him, “Do you know that Yahweh will take away your master from you today?” Elisha answered, “Yes, I know it, but do not talk about it.”
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, “Stay here, please, for Yahweh has sent me to the Jordan.” Elisha replied, “As Yahweh lives, and as you live, I will not leave you.” So the two went on.
7 Un piecdesmit vīri no praviešu bērniem gāja un nostājās iepretim no tālienes; un tie abi stāvēja pie Jardānes.
Later, fifty of the sons of the prophets stood opposite them at a distance while the two stood by the 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.
Elijah took his cloak, rolled it up, and struck the water with it. The river divided on both sides so that the two of them walked over on dry ground.
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.
It came about, after they had crossed over, that Elijah said to Elisha, “Ask me what I should do for you before I am taken from you.” Elisha replied, “Please let a double portion of your spirit come 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.
Elijah answered, “You have asked for a difficult thing. Nevertheless, if you see me when I am taken from you, this will happen for you, but if not, it will not happen.”
11 Un šiem tā ejot un runājot, redzi, ugunīgi rati un ugunīgi zirgi nāca, kas tos abus šķīra. Tā Elija aizbrauca vētrā uz debesīm.
As they still went on and talked, behold, a chariot of fire and horses of fire appeared, which separated the two men from each other, and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
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.
Elisha saw it and cried out, “My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and their horsemen!” He saw Elijah no more, and he took hold of his own clothes and tore them into two pieces.
13 Un viņš pacēla Elijas mēteli, kas tam bija nokritis, un griezās atpakaļ un stāvēja Jardānes malā.
He picked up Elijah's cloak that had fallen off him, and went back to stand by the bank of the 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.
He struck the water with Elijah's cloak that had fallen and said, “Where is Yahweh, the God of Elijah?” When he had struck the waters, they divided on both sides and Elisha crossed 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.
When the sons of the prophets who were from Jericho saw him across from them, they said, “The spirit of Elijah does rest on Elisha!” So they came to meet him, and bowed themselves to the ground 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.
They said to him, “See now, among your servants there are fifty strong men. Let them go, we ask, and look for your master, in case the Spirit of Yahweh has taken him up and thrown him onto some mountain or into some valley.” Elisha answered, “No, 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 urged Elisha until he was ashamed, he said, “Send them.” Then they sent fifty men, and they looked for three days, but did not find him.
18 Tad tie nāca atpakaļ pie viņa uz Jēriku, kur viņš bija palicis, un viņš uz tiem sacīja: vai es jums nesacīju: neejat?
They came back to Elisha, while he stayed at Jericho, and he said to them, “Did I not say to you, 'Do not go'?”
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.
The men of the city said to Elisha, “See, we beg of you, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my master can see, but the water is bad and the land is not fruitful.”
20 Un viņš sacīja: atnesiet man jaunu kausu un liekat sāli iekšā; un tie viņam to atnesa.
Elisha replied, “Bring me a new bowl and put salt in it,” so they brought 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.
Elisha went out to the spring of water and threw salt in it; then he said, “Yahweh says this, 'I have healed these waters. From this time on, there will be no more death or unfruitful land.'”
22 Tā tas ūdens palika veselīgs līdz šai dienai pēc Elišas vārda, ko viņš bija runājis.
So the waters were healed to this day, by the word which Elisha spoke.
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 Elisha went up from there to Bethel. As he was going up the road, young boys came out of the city and mocked him; they said to him, “Go up, you baldhead! Go up, you baldhead!”
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.
Elisha looked behind him and saw them; he called on Yahweh to curse them. Then two female bears came out of the woods and injured forty-two of the boys.
25 Un viņš no turienes gāja uz Karmeļa kalnu, un no turienes viņš griezās atpakaļ uz Samariju.
Then Elisha went from there to Mount Carmel, and from there he returned to Samaria.
