Otra Ķēniņu 23
1 Tad ķēniņš sūtīja, un pie viņa sapulcinājās visi vecaji no Jūda un Jeruzālemes.
Then the king summoned all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem.
2 Un ķēniņš gāja Tā Kunga namā un līdz ar viņu visi Jūda vīri un visi Jeruzālemes iedzīvotāji un visi priesteri un pravieši un visi ļaudis, gan mazi, gan lieli. Un viņš lasīja priekš viņu ausīm visus vārdus no tās derības grāmatas, kas bija atrasta Tā Kunga namā.
He went to the Lord's Temple with all the people of Judah and Jerusalem, together with the priests and the Levites, all the people from the least to the greatest, and he read to them the whole Book of the Agreement that had been discovered in the Lord's Temple.
3 Un ķēniņš stāvēja tai augstajā vietā un derēja derību priekš Tā Kunga vaiga, Tam Kungam pakaļ staigāt un turēt Viņa baušļus un Viņa liecības un Viņa likumus no visas sirds un no visas dvēseles, stipri turēt šās derības vārdus, kas bija rakstīti šai grāmatā. Un visi ļaudis uzņēma šo derību.
The king stood by the pillar and made a solemn agreement before the Lord to follow him and to keep his commandments, laws, and regulations with total dedication, and to observe the requirements of the agreement as written in the book. All the people entered into the agreement.
4 Un ķēniņš pavēlēja augstajam priesterim Hilķijam, un otras kārtas priesteriem un sliekšņa sargiem, iznest no Tā Kunga nama visus rīkus, kas bija taisīti Baālam un Ašerai un visam debess pulkam, un viņš tos sadedzināja ārā aiz Jeruzālemes Kidronas ielejā un viņu pīšļus lika nest uz Bēteli.
Then the king ordered Hilkiah the high priest, the priests of second rank, and the doorkeepers to remove from the Lord's Temple everything made for Baal, Asherah, and the worship of sun, moon, and stars. He burned them outside Jerusalem in the Kidron fields and took their ashes to Bethel.
5 Viņš arī nocēla tos kalnu priesterus, ko Jūda ķēniņi bija iecēluši, kvēpināt uz kalniem Jūda pilsētas un ap Jeruzālemi, arī tos, kas kvēpināja Baālam, saulei un mēnesim un zvaigznēm un visam debess pulkam.
He also dismissed the priests appointed by the kings of Judah to present burnt offerings on the high places of the towns of Judah and in the places all around Jerusalem, those who had sacrificed to Baal, to the sun and moon, to the constellations, and to all the powers of heaven.
6 Viņš arī izmeta to Ašeru no Tā Kunga nama ārā aiz Jeruzālemes pie Kidronas upes un to sadedzināja pie Kidronas upes un to sagrūda pīšļos un nometa viņas pīšļus uz ļaužu bērnu kapiem.
He removed the Asherah pole from the Lord's Temple and took it to the Kidron Valley outside Jerusalem. He burned it there, ground it into dust, and threw its dust over the graves of the ordinary people.
7 Viņš noplēsa arī maucinieku namus, kas pie Tā Kunga nama bija, kur sievas auda teltis priekš Ašeras.
He also demolished the quarters of the cult prostitutes that were in the Lord's Temple, where the women used to weave tapestries for the Asherah.
8 Un viņš saaicināja visus priesterus no Jūda pilsētām un sagānīja tos kalnu altārus, kur tie svētītāji bija kvēpinājuši, no Ģebas līdz Bēršebai, un noplēsa elku altārus pie vārtiem, to, kas bija Jozuas, pilsētas virsnieka, vārtu priekšā, (un to, kas) bija pa kreiso roku, kad ieiet pilsētas vārtos.
Josiah brought to Jerusalem all the priests from the towns of Judah and defiled the high places, from Geba to Beersheba, where the priests had sacrificed burnt offerings. He demolished the high places of the gates, near to the entrance of the gate of Joshua, the governor of the city, which was left of the town gate.
9 Bet kalnu priesteri neupurēja uz Tā Kunga altāra Jeruzālemē, bet tie ēda neraudzētu maizi starp saviem brāļiem.
Though the priests of the high places did not serve at the altar of the Lord in Jerusalem, they did eat unleavened bread with their brother priests.
10 Viņš sagānīja arī Tovetu, Inoma bērnu ielejā, ka neviens savam dēlam vai meitai neliktu caur uguni iet Molokam.
He defiled the Topheth altar in the Valley of Ben-hinnom so that no one could sacrifice his son or daughter in the fire to Molech.
11 Viņš arī atmeta tos zirgus, ko Jūda ķēniņi saulei bija cēluši, kur Tā Kunga namā iet, pie kambarjunkura NetanMeleka kambara, kas iekš Parvarim, un sadedzināja arī saules ratus ar uguni.
He removed the horses that the kings of Judah had dedicated to the sun from the entrance to the Lord's Temple. They were in the courtyard near the room of a eunuch named Nathan-melech. Josiah also burned the chariots dedicated to the sun.
12 Viņš noplēsa arī tos altārus, kas bija uz Ahaza augšistabas jumta, ko Jūda ķēniņi bija taisījuši līdz ar tiem altāriem, ko Manasus bija taisījis Tā Kunga nama abos pagalmos, un tos sagrūda un meta viņu pīšļus Kidronas upē.
He demolished the altars that the kings of Judah had set up on the roof near the upper chamber of Ahaz, and the altars Manasseh had placed in the two courtyards of the Lord's Temple. The king smashed them to pieces and scattered them in the Kidron Valley.
13 Un ķēniņš sagānīja tos kalnu altārus Jeruzālemes priekšā, pa labo roku samaitāšanas kalnam, ko Salamans, Israēla ķēniņš, bija uztaisījis Astartei, Sidona negantībai, un Kamosam, Moaba negantībai, un Milkonam, Amona bērnu negantībai.
The king also defiled the high places to the east of Jerusalem, to the south of the Mount of Corruption, the places which King Solomon of Israel had built for Ashtoreth, the vile goddess of the Sidonians, for Chemosh, the vile god of the Moabites, and for Molech, the vile god of the Ammonites.
14 Un viņš sadragāja tos stabus un nopostīja tās Ašeras un pildīja viņu vietas ar cilvēku kauliem.
He smashed the sacred stone pillars to pieces, chopped down the Asherah poles, and covered the places with human bones.
15 Viņš noplēsa arī to altāri, kas bija Bētelē, to kalna namu, ko Jerobeams, Nebata dēls, bija taisījis, kas Israēli paveda uz grēkiem: to altāri un kalna namu viņš noplēsa un sadedzināja to kalna namu un to sagrūda pīšļos un sadedzināja to Ašeru.
He also demolished the altar at Bethel, the high place set up by Jeroboam, son of Nebat, who had made Israel sin. Then he burned the high place, ground it to dust, and burned the Asherah pole.
16 Un Josija apgriezās un redzēja tos kapus, kas tur tanī kalnā bija; un viņš sūtīja un ņēma tos kaulus no tiem kapiem un tos sadedzināja uz tā altāra un to sagānīja pēc Tā Kunga vārda, ko tas Dieva vīrs bija sludinājis, kas šīs lietas sludināja.
As Josiah looked around he saw some tombs there on the hill. He had the bones taken from the tombs, and he burned them on the altar to defile it, just as the Lord had said through the man of God who had prophesied these things.
17 Un viņš sacīja: kas tā par kapa zīmi, ko es redzu? Un tās pilsētas ļaudis uz to sacīja: Tas ir Tā Dieva vīra kaps, kas no Jūda atnāca un šās lietas pasludināja, ko tu pie Bēteles altāra darījis.
Then he asked, “Whose gravestone is this that I see?” “It's the tomb of the man of God who came from Judah and proclaimed exactly what you have done to the altar of Bethel,” the townspeople replied.
18 Un viņš sacīja: Lai tas dus mierā, neviens lai neaiztiek viņa kaulus. Tā tie izglāba viņa kaulus ar tā pravieša kauliem, kas no Samarijas bija nācis.
“Let him rest in peace,” said Josiah. “Don't anyone touch his bones.” So they left his bones undisturbed, together with the bones of the prophet who came from Samaria.
19 Josija arī noplēsa visus kalnu namus Samarijas pilsētās, ko Israēla ķēniņi bija cēluši, to (Kungu) kaitinādami, un viņš tiem darīja, kā viņš Bētelē bija darījis.
Josiah destroyed, just as he did at Bethel, all the shrines of the high places in the towns of Samaria that the kings of Israel had built that had angered the Lord.
20 Un visus kalnu priesterus, kas tur bija, viņš nokāva uz tiem altāriem un sadedzināja cilvēku kaulus uz tiem; tad viņš griezās atpakaļ uz Jeruzālemi.
Josiah slaughtered all the priests who were there at the high places on the altars, and burned human bones on them. Then he returned to Jerusalem.
21 Un ķēniņš pavēlēja visiem ļaudīm sacīdams: turat Tam Kungam, savam Dievam, Pasa svētkus, kā šīs derības grāmatā rakstīts.
The king sent out an order to all the people, “Observe the Passover of the Lord your God, as it is written in this Book of the Agreement.”
22 Jo tādi Pasa svētki kā šie nebija turēti nedz soģu laikā, kas Israēli tiesāja, nedz visu Israēla ķēniņu, nedz Jūda ķēniņu laikā;
Such a Passover as this had not been observed from the days of the judges who ruled Israel on through all the days of the kings of Israel and Judah.
23 Bet ķēniņa Josijas astoņpadsmitā gadā šie Pasa svētki Tam Kungam tapa turēti Jeruzālemē.
But in the eighteenth year of King Josiah, this Passover was observed to honor the Lord in Jerusalem.
24 Un Josija arī izdeldēja pūtējus un burvjus, tēlus un elkus un visu negantību, ko vien redzēja Jūda zemē un Jeruzālemē, ka viņš stipri turētu bauslības vārdus, kas bija rakstīti tai grāmatā, ko priesteris Hilķija bija atradis Tā Kunga namā.
In addition, Josiah got rid of the mediums and spiritists, the household gods and idols, and all the disgusting practices that were present in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem. He did this to fulfill the words of the law written in the book that Hilkiah the priest had found in the Lord's Temple.
25 Un priekš viņa nebija tāds ķēniņš, kā viņš, kas pie Tā Kunga būtu atgriezies no visas savas sirds un no visas savas dvēseles un ar visu savu spēku, pēc visas Mozus bauslības, un arī pēc viņa tāds necēlās, kā viņš.
Never before was there a king like him who committed himself to the Lord in all his thoughts and attitudes, and with all his strength, keeping all the Law of Moses. There was no king like him afterwards either.
26 Tomēr Tas Kungs negriezās no Savas lielās dusmības karstuma, ar ko Viņa bardzība pret Jūdu bija iedegusies, par visu kaitināšanu, ar ko Manasus Viņu bija kaitinājis.
However, the Lord had not given up his furious hostility, which burned against Judah because of all that Manasseh had done to anger him.
27 Un Tas Kungs sacīja: Es atmetīšu arī Jūdu nost no Sava vaiga, kā Es Israēli esmu atmetis, un atmetīšu šo pilsētu, ko Es biju izredzējis, proti Jeruzālemi, un to namu, par ko biju sacījis: Mans vārds tur būs.
So the Lord announced, “I'm also going to banish Judah from my presence, just as I banished Israel. I will abandon this city that I have chosen, Jerusalem, and the Temple regarding which I said, My name will be there.”
28 Un kas vēl par Josiju stāstāms un viss, ko viņš darījis, tas rakstīts Jūda ķēniņu laiku grāmatā.
The rest of what happened in Josiah's reign, and all he did, are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Judah.
29 Viņa laikā Faraons Nekus, Ēģiptes ķēniņš, cēlās pret Asīrijas ķēniņu pie Eifrat upes. Un ķēniņš Josija tam gāja pretī, un Ēģiptes ķēniņš to nokāva pie Meģidus, kad tie sastapās.
While Josiah was still king, Pharaoh Neco, king of Egypt, led his army to help the king of Assyria at the Euphrates River. King Josiah took his army to fight him at Megiddo, but when Neco saw Josiah he killed him.
30 Un viņa kalpi to aizveda nomirušu no Meģidus un to noveda uz Jeruzālemi un to apraka viņa kapā. Un tās zemes ļaudis ņēma Joakasu, Josijas dēlu, un to svaidīja un cēla par ķēniņu viņa tēva vietā.
His servants put his body in a chariot, brought him back from Megiddo to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own tomb. Then the people of the land chose Jehoahaz, son of Josiah, anointed him, and made him king in succession to his father.
31 Joakas bija divdesmit un trīs gadus vecs, kad viņš palika par ķēniņu, un valdīja trīs mēnešus Jeruzālemē. Un viņa mātei bija vārds Amutala, Jeremijas meita no Libnas.
Jehoahaz was twenty-three when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for three months. His mother's name was Hamutal, daughter of Jeremiah. She came from Libnah.
32 Un viņš darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika, kā viņa tēvi bija darījuši.
He did what was evil in the Lord's sight, just as all his forefathers had done.
33 Bet Faraons Nekus to saistīja Riblatā, Hamatas zemē, lai nebūtu vairs par ķēniņu Jeruzālemē, un viņš uzlika zemei meslus dot, simts talentus sudraba un vienu talentu zelta.
Pharaoh Neco imprisoned Jehoahaz at Riblah in the land of Hamath to stop him ruling in Jerusalem. He also imposed on Judah a tribute of one hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
34 Un Faraons Nekus iecēla par ķēniņu Elijaķimu, Josijas dēlu, viņa tēva Josijas vietā, un viņam deva citu vārdu, Jojaķimu. Bet Joakasu viņš ņēma līdz, un tas nāca uz Ēģipti un tur nomira.
Pharaoh Neco made Eliakim, son of Josiah, king in succession to his father Josiah, and he changed Eliakim's name to Jehoiakim. Neco took Jehoahaz to Egypt, where he died.
35 Un Jojaķims Faraonam deva sudrabu un zeltu. Bet viņš lika zemi uzrakstīt, lai varētu to sudrabu dot pēc Faraona pavēles, no ikkatra pēc tā raksta viņš to zeltu un sudrabu piedzina no zemes ļaudīm, ko dot Faraonam Nekum.
Jehoiakim paid the silver and gold to Pharaoh Neco, but in order to meet Pharaoh's demand he taxed the land and required payment of the silver and the gold from the people, each in proportion to their wealth.
36 Jojaķims bija divdesmit pieci gadus vecs, kad palika par ķēniņu, un valdīja vienpadsmit gadus Jeruzālemē. Un viņa mātei bija vārds Zebuda, Pedajus meita, no Rumas.
Jehoiakim was twenty-five when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for eleven years. His mother's name was Zebidah, daughter of Pedaiah She came from Rumah.
37 Un viņš darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika, kā viņa tēvi bija darījuši.
He did evil in the Lord's sight, just as his forefathers had done.
