Otra Ķēniņu 6
1 Un praviešu bērni sacīja uz Elišu: redzi jel, tā vieta, kur mēs tavā priekšā dzīvojam, mums ir par šauru.
And the sons of the prophets said unto Elisha: 'Behold now, the place where we dwell before thee is too strait for us.
2 Ejam jel pie Jardānes un ņemsim tur ikkatrs vienu baļķi, un taisīsim sev tur vietu, kur dzīvot. Un tas sacīja: ejat.
Let us go, we pray thee, unto the Jordan, and take thence every man a beam, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell.' And he answered: 'Go ye.'
3 Un viens sacīja: nāc lūdzams un ej līdz saviem kalpiem. Un viņš sacīja: es iešu.
And one said: 'Be content, I pray thee, and go with thy servants.' And he answered: 'I will go.'
4 Tā viņš ar tiem gāja. Un tie nonāca pie Jardānes un nocirta kokus.
So he went with them. And when they came to the Jordan, they cut down wood.
5 Un notikās, ka vienam baļķi cērtot cirvis iekrita ūdenī; tad tas sāka brēkt un sacīja: vai, mans kungs! Un tas bija palienēts.
But as one was felling a beam, the axe-head fell into the water; and he cried, and said: 'Alas, my master! for it was borrowed.'
6 Un tas Dieva vīrs sacīja: kur tas iekrita? Tad tas viņam rādīja to vietu, un viņš nogrieza koku un iegrūda tur, tad tā dzelzs peldēja.
And the man of God said: 'Where fell it?' And he showed him the place. And he cut down a stick, and cast it in thither, and made the iron to swim.
7 Un viņš sacīja: ņem to. Tad tas izstiepa savu roku un to paņēma.
And he said: 'Take it up to thee.' So he put out his hand, and took it.
8 Un Sīriešu ķēniņš karoja pret Israēli un aprunājās ar saviem kalpiem un sacīja: apmetīsimies tai un tai vietā.
Now the king of Aram warred against Israel; and he took counsel with his servants, saying: 'In such and such a place shall be my camp.'
9 Bet tas Dieva vīrs sūtīja pie Israēla ķēniņa un sacīja: sargies, neej šai vietai garām, jo Sīrieši tur grib apmesties.
And the man of God sent unto the king of Israel, saying: 'Beware that thou pass not such a place; for thither the Arameans are coming down.'
10 Tad Israēla ķēniņš sūtīja uz to vietu, par ko tas Dieva vīrs tam bija sacījis un piekodinājis, un tur apsargājās ne vienu ne otru lāgu vien.
And the king of Israel sent to the place which the man of God told him and warned him of; and he guarded himself there, not once nor twice.
11 Tad Sīriešu ķēniņa sirds sašuta par šo lietu, un viņš aicināja savus kalpus un uz tiem sacīja: vai jūs man nevarat sacīt, kurš no mūsējiem tinās ar Israēla ķēniņu?
And the heart of the king of Aram was sore troubled for this thing; and he called his servants, and said unto them: 'Will ye not tell me which of us is for the king of Israel?'
12 Tad viens no viņa kalpiem sacīja: tā nav, mans kungs un ķēniņ, bet Israēla pravietis, Eliša, saka Israēla ķēniņam tos vārdus; ko tu savā guļamā istabā runā.
And one of his servants said: 'Nay, my lord, O king; but Elisha, the prophet that is in Israel, telleth the king of Israel the words that thou speakest in thy bed-chamber.'
13 Un viņš sacīja: ejat un raugāt, kur tas ir, ka es sūtu, viņu atvest. Tad viņam teica un sacīja: redzi, viņš ir Dotanā.
And he said: 'Go and see where he is, that I may send and fetch him.' And it was told him, saying: 'Behold, he is in Dothan.'
14 Tad viņš uz turieni sūtīja zirgus un ratus un lielu pulku, un tie nāca naktī un apmetās ap to pilsētu.
Therefore sent he thither horses, and chariots, and a great host; and they came by night, and compassed the city about.
15 Un Tā Dieva vīra sulainis cēlās agri un izgāja, un redzi, kara pulks ar zirgiem un ratiem bija apmeties ap pilsētu. Tad viņa puisis uz to sacīja: mans kungs, ko darīsim?
And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, a host with horses and chariots was round about the city. And his servant said unto him: 'Alas, my master! how shall we do?'
16 Un viņš sacīja: nebīsties, jo to ir vairāk, kas pie mums, nekā to, kas pie viņiem.
And he answered: 'Fear not: for they that are with us are more than they that are with them.'
17 Un Eliša pielūdza un sacīja: Kungs, atdari jel viņam acis, ka tas redz! Tad Tas Kungs atdarīja tā puiša acis, ka tas redzēja, un redzi, kalns bija pilns ugunīgu zirgu un ratu Elišam apkārt.
And Elisha prayed, and said: 'LORD, I pray Thee, open his eyes, that he may see.' And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw; and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.
18 Un tie nonāca pie viņa, un Eliša lūdza To Kungu un sacīja: sit jel šos ļaudis ar aklību, un Viņš tos sita ar aklību pēc Elišas vārda.
And when they came down to him, Elisha prayed unto the LORD, and said: 'Smite this people, I pray Thee, with blindness.' And He smote them with blindness according to the word of Elisha.
19 Tad Eliša uz tiem sacīja: šis nav tas ceļš un šī nav tā pilsēta. Nāciet man pakaļ, es jūs vedīšu pie tā vīra, ko jūs meklējat. Un viņš tos veda uz Samariju.
And Elisha said unto them: 'This is not the way, neither is this the city; follow me, and I will bring you to the man whom ye seek.' And he led them to Samaria.
20 Kad tie nu nonāca Samarijā, tad Eliša sacīja: Kungs, atdari tiem acis, ka tie redz. Un Tas Kungs atdarīja tiem acis, ka tie redzēja, un redzi, tie bija pašā Samarijas vidū.
And it came to pass, when they were come into Samaria, that Elisha said: 'LORD, open the eyes of these men, that they may see.' And the LORD opened their eyes, and they saw; and, behold, they were in the midst of Samaria.
21 Un Israēla ķēniņš sacīja uz Elišu, kad viņš tos redzēja: vai man tos būs kaut, vai kaut, mans tēvs?
And the king of Israel said unto Elisha, when he saw them: 'My father, shall I smite them? shall I smite them?'
22 Bet viņš sacīja: tev tos nebūs kaut; ko tu ar savu zobenu un ar savu stopu aizņem, tos kauj. Cel viņiem priekšā maizi un ūdeni, lai tie ēd un dzer un iet atkal pie sava kunga.
And he answered: 'Thou shalt not smite them; hast thou taken captive with thy sword and with thy bow those whom thou wouldest smite? set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink, and go to their master.'
23 Un viņš tiem taisīja lielu mielastu, ka tie ēda un dzēra; un viņš tos atlaida, un tie atkal gāja pie sava kunga. Pēc tam Sīriešu sirotāji vairs nenāca Israēla zemē.
And he prepared great provision for them; and when they had eaten and drunk, he sent them away, and they went to their master. And the bands of Aram came no more into the land of Israel.
24 Un pēc tam notikās, ka BenHadads, Sīriešu ķēniņš, sapulcināja visu savu karaspēku un cēlās un apmeta lēģeri ap Samariju.
And it came to pass after this, that Ben-hadad king of Aram gathered all his host, and went up, and besieged Samaria.
25 Un liels bads bija Samarijā, jo redzi, tie šo spieda tik ilgi, tiekams ēzeļa galva maksāja astoņdesmit sudraba gabalus, un ceturtdaļa kaba(apmēram litrs) baložu mēslu pieci sudraba gabalus.
And there was a great famine in Samaria; and, behold, they besieged it, until an ass's head was sold for fourscore pieces of silver, and the fourth part of a kab of dove's dung for five pieces of silver.
26 Un notikās, kad Israēla ķēniņš staigāja pa mūri, tad viena sieva uz to brēca un sacīja: palīdzi man, mans kungs un ķēniņ!
And as the king of Israel was passing by upon the wall, there cried a woman unto him, saying: 'Help, my lord, O king.'
27 Un tas sacīja: Tas Kungs tev nepalīdz, kā tad lai es tev palīdzu? Vai no klona, vai no vīna spaida?
And he said: 'If the LORD do not help thee, whence shall I help thee? out of the threshingfloor, or out of the winepress?'
28 Un ķēniņš uz to sacīja: kas tev kait? Un tā sacīja: šī sieva uz mani sacīja, dod savu dēlu, ka to šodien ēdam, tad rītu ēdīsim manu dēlu.
And the king said unto her: 'What aileth thee?' And she answered: 'This woman said unto me: Give thy son, that we may eat him to-day, and we will eat my son to-morrow.
29 Tad mēs manu dēlu esam vārījušas un ēdušas. Bet kad otru dienu es uz to sacīju: dod nu savu dēlu, ka to ēdam, tad viņa savu dēlu ir apslēpusi.
So we boiled my son, and did eat him; and I said unto her on the next day: Give thy son, that we may eat him; and she hath hid her son.'
30 Un kad ķēniņš dzirdēja šās sievas vārdus, tad tas saplēsa savas drēbes, pa mūri iedams, un tie ļaudis redzēja, un redzi, tam bija maiss apakšā uz pašām miesām.
And it came to pass, when the king heard the words of the woman, that he rent his clothes — now he was passing by upon the wall — and the people looked, and, behold, he had sackcloth within upon his flesh.
31 Un viņš sacīja: lai Dievs man šā vai tā dara, ja Elišas, Šafata dēla, galva šodien uz viņa paliks.
Then he said: 'God do so to me, and more also, if the head of Elisha the son of Shaphat shall stand on him this day.'
32 Un Eliša sēdēja namā, un tie vecaji sēdēja pie tā. Un (ķēniņš) sūtīja vīru savā priekšā. Bet pirms tas vēstnesis pie tā nonāca, Eliša sacīja uz tiem vecajiem: vai esat redzējuši, ka šis slepkavas bērns sūtījis, man galvu noraut? Redziet, kad tas vēstnesis nāk, tad aizslēdziet durvis, ar tām durvīm to grūzdami ārā. Klau, aiz viņa jau viņa kunga kāju troksnis!
But Elisha sat in his house, and the elders sat with him; and the king sent a man from before him; but ere the messenger came to him, he said to the elders: 'See ye how this son of a murderer hath sent to take away my head? look, when the messenger cometh, shut the door, and hold the door fast against him; is not the sound of his master's feet behind him?'
33 Un kamēr viņš vēl ar tiem runāja, redzi, tad tas vēstnesis ienāca pie tā un (ķēniņš) sacīja: redzi, tas ļaunums nāk no Tā Kunga, ko tad man vēl cerēt uz To Kungu?
And while he yet talked with them, behold, the messenger came down unto him; and the king said: 'Behold, this evil is of the LORD; why should I wait for the LORD any longer?'
