Otra Ķēniņu 4
1 Un viena sieva no praviešu bērnu sievām piesauca Elišu un sacīja: mans vīrs, tavs kalps, ir nomiris, un tu zini, ka tavs kalps To Kungu bijās. Un nu nāk tas parādu dzinējs, gribēdams manus divus bērnus sev ņemt par kalpiem.
One day the widow of one of [Yahweh’s] prophets came to Elisha and cried out to him, “My husband, who worked with you, is dead. You know that he revered Yahweh [very much]. But now a man to whom he owed a lot of money has come to me. [And because I cannot pay back the money, he is threatening] to take away my two sons to be his slaves [as payment for what I owe him]!”
2 Un Eliša uz to sacīja: ko man tev būs darīt? Stāsti man, kas ir tavā namā? Un viņa sacīja: tavai kalponei nav it nekā namā, kā tikai krūze eļļas.
Elisha replied, “What can I do to help you? Tell me, what do you have in your house?” She replied, “We have only a container of [olive] oil; we have nothing else.”
3 Tad viņš sacīja: ej, aizņemies traukus no citiem, no visiem saviem kaimiņiem lūdz tukšus traukus labu pulku.
Elisha said, “Go to your neighbors and borrow from them as many empty jars as you can.
4 Tad ej iekšā un aizslēdz durvis aiz sevis un aiz saviem dēliem un lej visos tanīs traukos un, kas pilni, tos liec pie malas.
Then take the jars into your house with your sons. Shut the door. Then pour olive oil from your container into the other jars. When each jar is full, set it aside [and fill another jar. Keep doing that until all the jars are full].”
5 Tad tā no viņa aizgāja un aizslēdza durvis aiz sevis un aiz saviem dēliem, tie viņai atnesa tos traukus, un viņa ielēja.
[So she did what Elisha told her to do]. Her sons kept bringing jars to her, and she kept filling them.
6 Un kad tie trauki bija pilni, tad tā sacīja uz savu dēlu: nes man vēl vienu trauku Bet tas uz viņu sacīja: nav vairs trauka Tad tā eļļa nostājās.
Soon all the jars were full. So she said to one of her sons, “Bring me another jar!” But he replied, “There are no more jars!” And then the olive oil stopped flowing.
7 Un tā gāja un to teica tam Dieva vīram. Un viņš sacīja: ej, pārdod to eļļu un maksā savu parādu, un no atlikuma uzturies pati ar saviem dēliem.
When she told Elijah [what had happened], he said to her, “Now sell the jars of oil. And [with the money you get, ] pay what you owe, and there will be enough extra money to keep buying food for yourself and your sons.” [So she did that].
8 Un notikās kādu dienu, kad Eliša gāja uz Šunemi, tad tur bija viena bagāta sieva, tā viņu uzlūdza, pie viņas ēst. Un notikās, kad viņš tur cauri staigāja, tad viņš tur iegāja, ēst maizi,
One day Elisha went to Shunem [town]. There was a wealthy woman who lived there [with her husband]. One day she invited Elisha to her house for a meal. [Elisha went there and] from then on, every time Elisha was in Shunem, he went to their house to eat a meal.
9 Un tā sacīja uz savu vīru: redzi, es atzīstu, ka tas ir svēts Dieva vīrs, kas še vienmēr cauri staigā.
One day the woman said to her husband, “I am sure that this man who often comes here is a prophet [who brings messages] from God.
10 Taisīsim viņam mazu augšistabiņu ar sienām un liksim viņam tur gultu un galdu un krēslu un lukturi, ka tam pie mums nākot ir, kur ieiet.
I think we should make a small room for him on our [flat] roof, and put a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp in it. If we do that, whenever he comes here, he will have a place to stay.” [So they did that].
11 Un gadījās kādu dienu, kad viņš tur nonāca, tad tas gāja tai augšistabiņā, tur gulēt.
One day Elisha returned to Shunem, and he went up to that room to rest.
12 Un viņš sacīja uz Gehazi, savu puisi, pasauc šo Šunemieti. Un viņš to sauca un tā ienāca pie viņa.
He said to his servant Gehazi, “Tell the woman that I want to speak to her.” [So the servant went and told her]. When she came [to the doorway of Elisha’s room],
13 Un viņš uz to sacīja: saki jel viņai: redzi, mūsu dēļ tev ir bijušas visas šās rūpes, ko man tev būs darīt? Vai tev kas jārunā pie ķēniņa vai pie karu lielkunga? Bet viņa sacīja: es dzīvoju starp saviem ļaudīm.
Elisha said to Gehazi, “Tell her that we both appreciate all the kind things that she has done for us. Then ask her what we can do for her. Ask, ‘Do you want [me to go to] the king or the army commander, to request something for you?’” [Gehazi told her, ] and she replied, “No, [he does not need to do that, because] my family/relatives are able to give me what I need.”
14 Tad viņš sacīja ko tad lai es viņai daru? Un Gehazis sacīja taču gan, viņai nav dēla un viņas vīrs ir vecs.
[Later, ] Elisha asked Gehazi, “What do you think that we can do for that woman?” He replied, “She does not have a son, and her husband is an old man. [So maybe we should ask Yahweh to enable her to have a son].”
15 Tad viņš sacīja pasauc viņu. Un tas viņu sauca, un tā ienāca durvīs.
Elisha told Gehazi, “Call her back again.” [So Gehazi went and called her]. And when the woman returned, as she stood in the doorway,
16 Un viņš sacīja: nākošā gadā ap šo laiku tu skūpstīsi dēlu. Bet tā sacīja: ne tā, mans kungs tu Dieva vīrs! Nemelo tu savai kalponei.
Elisha said to her, “About this time next year you will be holding your [infant] son in your arms.” But she protested, “O, sir, you are a prophet [who brings messages] from God, so please do not deceive/lie to me by saying things like that!”
17 Un tā sieva tapa grūta un dzemdēja dēlu otrā gadā ap to pašu laiku, kā Eliša uz viņu bija runājis.
But a few months later, the woman became pregnant, and she gave birth to a son at that time the following year, just like Elisha had predicted.
18 Kad nu tas bērns paauga, tad tas kādu dienu gāja ārā pie sava tēva pie pļāvējiem.
When the child was older, one day he went out to the fields to see his father, who was [working] with the men who were harvesting [grain].
19 Un tas sacīja uz savu tēvu: vai mana galva, mana galva! Un viņš sacīja puisim: nes to pie viņa mātes.
[Suddenly] the boy exclaimed, “My head [hurts]! My head [hurts a lot]!” His father said to one of the servants, “Carry him home to his mother!”
20 Un tas to ņēma un nesa pie viņa mātes, un tā to ņēma savā klēpī līdz pusdienai, tad tas nomira.
So the servant carried him home, and his mother held him on her lap. But at noontime the boy died.
21 Un tā gāja augšām un to nolika Tā Dieva vīra gultā un to ieslēdza un izgāja,
She carried him up [the steps] to the prophet’s room and laid him on the bed. She left him there and went out and shut the door.
22 Un sauca savu vīru un sacīja: sūti man jel vienu no puišiem un vienu ēzeļa māti, es jāšu pie Tā Dieva vīra un atkal pārnākšu.
She then called out to her husband, saying, “Send to me one of the servants and a donkey, so that I can ride [on it] quickly to the prophet, and then come back!” [But she did not tell her husband that their son had died].
23 Un viņš sacīja: kāpēc tu šodien iesi pie viņa? Jo nav nedz jauns mēnesis nedz svēta diena. Bet tā sacīja: paliec mierā!
Her husband [called out to her and] said, “Why [do you want to go] today? This is not the day when we celebrate the Festival of the New Moon, and it is not a Sabbath day!” But she only replied, “[Just do what I requested and] everything will be all right.”
24 Un viņa apsedloja ēzeļa māti un sacīja uz savu puisi: dzen steigšus, nekavē mani jājot, kā vien, kad es tev saku.
So she [told the servant to] put saddles on [two] donkeys, and as they left, she said, “Hurry! Do not slow down unless t tell you to do that!”
25 Tā viņa jāja un nāca pie Tā Dieva vīra uz Karmeļa kalnu. Un kad tas Dieva vīrs no tālienes to redzēja, tad viņš sacīja uz savu puisi Gehazi: redzi, tur ir tā Šunemiete.
As they approached Carmel Mountain, where Elisha was, Elisha saw her in the distance. He said to Gehazi, “Look, the woman from Shunem is coming!
26 Steidzies jel viņai pretī un saki uz to: vai tev labi klājās, un tavam vīram, un tavam dēlam? Un viņa sacīja: labi gan.
Run to her, and ask her if everything is all right with her and her husband and with her child!” [So Gehazi ran to her and asked her, but she did not tell Gehazi anything.] She only said, “Yes, everything is fine.”
27 Un tā nāca kalnā pie Tā Dieva vīra un apkampa viņa kājas. Bet Gehazis piegāja to atstumt. Bet tas Dieva vīrs sacīja: liec to mierā, jo viņas dvēsele ir noskumusi, un Tas Kungs man to apslēpis un man nav darījis zināmu.
But when she came to where Elisha was, she [prostrated herself on the ground in front of Elisha and] took hold of his feet. Gehazi started to push her away, but Elisha said, “(Do not push her away/Leave her alone)! Something is troubling her very much, but Yahweh has not told me what it is.”
28 Un viņa sacīja: vai es esmu lūgusi dēlu no sava kunga? Vai es nesacīju: nevil mani?
Then she said to Elisha, “O, sir, I did not ask you to enable me to give birth to a son [RHQ]. And I told you not to lie to me about that!” [RHQ]
29 Tad viņš sacīja uz Gehazi: apjoz savus gurnus un ņem manu zizli savā rokā un ej. Ja tevi kas sastop, tad nesveicini to, un ja kas tevi sveicina, tad neatbildi tam, un liec manu zizli uz tā bērna vaigu.
Then Elisha [realized that something must have happened to her son. So he] said to Gehazi, “Get ready [to leave immediately]. Take my staff/walking stick and go [to her home]. Do not [stop to] talk to anyone on the way. Go quickly [to where her son is] and lay the staff on the child’s face. [If you do that, perhaps Yahweh will enable him to be well].”
30 Bet tā bērna māte sacīja: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvs un tava dvēsele dzīva, es tevi neatstāšu. Tad viņš cēlās un tai gāja līdz.
But the boy’s mother said, “Just [as certain] as Yahweh lives and you live, I will not go home if you do not go with me.” So Elisha returned with her [to her home].
31 Gehazis viņu priekšā bija nogājis un licis to zizli uz tā bērna vaigu, bet tur nebija ne balss nedz samaņas. Tad viņš griezās atpakaļ tam pretī un teica un sacīja: tas bērns nav uzmodies.
Gehazi hurried quickly, and [when he got to the woman’s home, ] he laid the staff/walking stick on the child’s face, but the child did not move or say anything. So Gehazi returned to meet Elisha [along the road], and told him, “The child is still dead.”
32 Kad nu Eliša ienāca namā, redzi, tad tas bērns gulēja nomiris viņa gultā.
When Elisha reached the house, he saw that the boy was lying dead on his bed.
33 Un viņš gāja iekšā un aizslēdza durvis aiz abiem un pielūdza To Kungu.
Elisha went into the room by himself and shut the door and prayed to Yahweh.
34 Un viņš uzkāpa un nolikās uz to bērnu un lika savu muti un savas acis uz viņa acīm un savas rokas uz viņa rokām, un nogūlās tā pār tā bērna miesām, kamēr tās sasila.
Then he lay down on the boy’s body, and put his mouth on the boy’s mouth, and put his eyes on the boy’s eyes, and put his hands on the boy’s hands. Then the boy’s body started to become warm!
35 Un viņš atkal cēlās un gāja istabā reiz šurp un reiz turp un uzkāpa atkal un nogūlās pār to. Tad tas bērns šķaudīja septiņas reizes, pēc tas atdarīja savas acis.
Elisha got up and walked back and forth in the room [several times]. Then he stretched his body on the boy’s body again. The boy sneezed seven times and opened his eyes!
36 Un viņš sauca Gehazi un sacīja: pasauc to Šunemieti. Un viņš to sauca un tā nāca; tad viņš sacīja: ņem savu bērnu.
Then Elisha summoned Gehazi. He said, “Call the boy’s mother!” [So Gehazi went and called her, ] and when she came in, Elisha said, “Here, take your son!”
37 Tad tā nāca un metās viņam pie kājām un nometās zemē un ņēma savu dēlu un izgāja ārā.
She [gratefully] prostrated herself at Elisha’s feet. Then she picked up her son and carried him downstairs.
38 Un Eliša gāja atkal uz Gilgalu; un zemē bija bads, un praviešu bērni sēdēja viņa priekšā, un viņš sacīja uz savu puisi: liec to lielo podu pie uguns un vāri ēdienu praviešu bērniem.
Then Elisha returned to Gilgal. But at that time there was (a famine/very little food) in that area. One day as the group of prophets was sitting in front of Elisha [listening to what he was teaching], he said to his servant, “Put a large pot on [the stove] and make some stew for these men.”
39 Tad viens izgāja laukā, zāles lasīt un atrada meža gurķu stīgas un no tām salasīja pilnu klēpi meža gurķu un nāca un tos iegrieza tai ēdiena podā, jo tie tos nepazina.
One of the prophets went out to the fields to gather some vegetables. But he gathered [only] some wild gourds and put them in his cloak and brought them back. He shredded them and put them in the pot, but he did not know that the gourds were poisonous.
40 Un tie ielēja tiem vīriem ēst, un kad tie no tā ēdiena ēda, tad tie brēca un sacīja: nāve podā, tu Dieva vīrs! Un nevarēja to ēst.
He served the stew to the prophets, but after the men had eaten only a couple bites, they cried out, “Elisha, there is something in the pot that will kill us!” So they would not eat it.
41 Bet viņš sacīja: atnesiet miltus. Un viņš tos iemeta tai podā un sacīja: lej tiem ļaudīm, lai tie ēd. Tad tur vairs nekā nelaba nebija podā.
Elisha said, “Bring me some flour.” [They brought him some, and] he threw it in the pot and he said, “It is all right now. You can eat it.” And they ate it, and it did not harm them.
42 Un viens vīrs nāca no BaālBalizas un atnesa tam Dieva vīram jaunu maizi, divdesmit miežu maizes un taukšētas vārpas savā kulē. Un viņš sacīja: dodi tiem ļaudīm, lai ēd.
One day a man from Baal-Shalishah [town] brought to Elisha a sack of freshly cut grain and 20 loaves of barley bread, made from the first grain that they harvested [that year]. Elisha said [to his servant], “Give it to the group of prophets, so that they can eat it.”
43 Bet viņa sulainis sacīja: ko es došu simts vīriem? Un viņš sacīja: dod tiem ļaudīm, lai ēd; jo tā saka Tas Kungs: tie ēdīs un vēl atliks.
But his servant exclaimed, “Do you think that we can feed 100 of us prophets with only that much?” [RHQ] But Elisha replied, “Give it to the prophets so that they can eat it, because Yahweh says that there will be plenty for all of them, and there will be some left over!”
44 Tad viņš tiem lika priekšā, ka tie ēda, un tur vēl atlika pēc Tā Kunga vārda.
After his servant gave it to the prophets, they ate [all that they wanted], and there was food left over, just as Yahweh had promised.
