< Otra Ķēniņu 22 >
1 Josija bija astoņus gadus vecs, kad palika par ķēniņu, un valdīja trīsdesmit un vienu gadu Jeruzālemē. Un viņa mātei bija vārds Jedida, Adajas meita no Backates.
Josiah was eight when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for thirty-one years. His mother's name was Jedidah, daughter of Adaiah. She came from Bozkath.
2 Un tas darīja, kas Tam Kungam labi patika un staigāja visos sava tēva Dāvida ceļos un neatkāpās ne pa labo ne pa kreiso roku.
He did what was right in the Lord's sight, and followed all the ways of David his forefather—he did not deviate to the right or to the left.
3 Un ķēniņa Josijas astoņpadsmitā gadā ķēniņš sūtīja skrīveri Safanu, Acalijas dēlu, Mešulama dēla dēlu, Tā Kunga namā un sacīja:
In the eighteenth year of his reign, Josiah sent Shaphan, son of Azaliah, son of Meshullam, to the Lord's Temple. He said,
4 Ej pie augstā priestera Hilķijas, saņemt to naudu, kas Tā Kunga namā nesta, un ko sliekšņu sargi no tiem ļaudīm sakrājuši,
“Go to Hilkiah the high priest and have him count the money the doorkeepers have collected from the people coming to the Lord's Temple.
5 Un to dot tiem darba uzraugiem rokā, kas ir iecelti pār Tā Kunga namu, lai tie to dod tiem strādniekiem pie Tā Kunga nama, izlabot tā nama plīsumus,
Then hand it over to those who are supervising the work on Lord's Temple, and have them pay the workmen doing the repairing of the Lord's Temple,
6 Tiem amatniekiem un nama taisītājiem un mūrniekiem, pirkt kokus un cirstus akmeņus, izlabot to namu.
the carpenters, the builders and the masons. In addition have them purchase timber and cut stone to repair the Temple.
7 Bet lai neprasa atbildēšanu par to naudu, kas viņu rokā dota, jo tie to dara uz ticību.
Don't ask for any accounts from the men who received the money because they deal honestly.”
8 Tad augstais priesteris Hilķija sacīja uz skrīveri Safanu: es bauslības grāmatu esmu atradis Tā Kunga namā. Un Hilķija deva Safanam to grāmatu; un tas to lasīja.
Hilkiah the high priest told Shaphan the scribe, “I've found the Book of the Law in the Lord's Temple.” He gave it to Shaphan who read it.
9 Un skrīveris Safans nāca pie ķēniņa un viņam nesa vēsti atpakaļ un sacīja: tavi kalpi ir izbēruši to naudu, kas Tā Kunga namā atrasta, un to devuši rokā tiem darba uzraugiem, kas iecelti pār Tā Kunga namu.
Shaphan the scribe went to the king and to give him a report, saying, “Your officials have paid out the money that was in the Lord's Temple and have handed it over to those appointed to supervise the work at the Lord's Temple.”
10 Un skrīveris Safans stāstīja ķēniņam un sacīja: priesteris Hilķija man devis vienu grāmatu. Un Safans to lasīja ķēniņam priekšā.
Then Shaphan the scribe told the king, “Hilkiah the priest has given me a book.” Shaphan read it to the king.
11 Kad nu ķēniņš dzirdēja tās bauslības grāmatas vārdus, tad viņš saplēsa savas drēbes.
When the king heard what was in the book of the Law, he tore his clothes.
12 Un ķēniņš pavēlēja priesterim Hilķijam un Aikamam, Safana dēlam, un Akboram, Mikajas dēlam, un skrīverim Safanam un ķēniņa kalpam Azajam, un sacīja:
Then he gave orders to Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam, son of Shaphan, Acbor, son of Micaiah, Shaphan, the scribe, and Asaiah the king's assistant, saying,
13 Ejat, vaicājiet To Kungu priekš manis un priekš tiem ļaudīm un priekš visa Jūda par šās grāmatas vārdiem, kas ir atrasta. Jo Tā Kunga bardzība ir liela, kas pret mums iedegusies par to, ka mūsu tēvi šās grāmatas vārdus nav klausījuši, nedz to darījuši, kas viss mums tur uzrakstīts.
“Go and talk to the Lord for me, and for the people, and for all of Judah, about what is said in the book that's been found. For the Lord must be really angry with us, because our forefathers have not obeyed the Lord's instructions in this book; they have not been doing what is written there for us to do.”
14 Tad priesteris Hilķija un Aikams un Akbors un Safans un Azaja nogāja pie pravietes Uldas, drēbju sarga, Šaluma, Tikvas dēla, Aras dēla dēla, sievas, kas dzīvoja Jeruzālemes otrā daļā, un tie ar to runāja.
Hilkiah the priest, Ahikam, Acbor, Shaphan, and Asaiah went and spoke to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum, son of Tokhath, the son of Hasrah, custodian of the wardrobe. She lived in Jerusalem, in the city's second quarter.
15 Un tā uz tiem sacīja: tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs: sakāt tam vīram, kas jūs pie Manis sūtījis:
She told them, “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Tell the man who sent you to me,
16 Tā saka Tas Kungs: redzi, Es vedīšu nelaimi pār šo vietu un pār viņas iedzīvotājiem, visus tās grāmatas vārdus, ko Jūda ķēniņš lasījis,
this is what the Lord says: I am about to bring disaster down on this place and on its people, in accordance with everything written in the book that has been read to the king of Judah.
17 Tāpēc ka tie Mani atstājuši un kvēpinājuši citiem dieviem un Mani kaitinājuši ar visiem saviem roku darbiem, tāpēc Mana bardzība pret šo vietu iedegsies un nedzisīs.
They have abandoned me and offered sacrifices to other gods, making me angry by everything they've done. My anger will be poured out upon this place and will not be stopped.
18 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:
But tell the king of Judah who sent you to ask the Lord, tell him this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: As for what you heard read to you—
19 Tāpēc ka tava sirds mīksta tapusi, un tu priekš Tā Kunga esi zemojies, dzirdēdams, ko Es esmu runājis pret šo vietu un pret viņas iedzīvotājiem, ka tiem būs iet postā un palikt par lāstu, un esi saplēsis savas drēbes un raudājis manā priekšā, tad es tevi arī esmu paklausījis, saka Tas Kungs.
because you were receptive and repentant before God when you heard his warnings against this place and against its people—that would become desolate and a curse—and because you have torn your clothes and wept before me, I have also heard you, declares the Lord.
20 Tāpēc, redzi, Es tevi piepulcināšu taviem tēviem, un tu ar mieru tapsi guldīts savā kapā, un tavas acis neredzēs to nelaimi, ko Es vedīšu pār šo vietu. Un tie ķēniņam atsacīja šo vārdu.
All this will not happen until after you have died, and you will die in peace. You will not see all the disaster that I'm going to bring down on this place.” They went back to the king and gave him her response.
