Otra Ķēniņu 7
1 Tad Eliša sacīja: klausāties Tā Kunga vārdu: tā saka Tas Kungs: rītu ap šo laiku pūrs kviešu miltu maksās vienu sēķeli un divi pūri miežu vienu sēķeli Samarijas vārtos.
Then Elisha said, “Hear the word of the LORD! This is what the LORD says: ‘About this time tomorrow at the gate of Samaria, a seah of fine flour will sell for a shekel, and two seahs of barley will sell for a shekel.’”
2 Tad tas virsnieks, uz kura roku ķēniņš atspiedās, atbildēja tam Dieva vīram un sacīja: redzi, jebšu Tas Kungs logus taisītu debesīs, vai šī lieta varētu notikt? Bet tas sacīja: redzi, ar savām acīm tu to redzēsi, bet no tā neēdīsi.
But the officer on whose arm the king leaned answered the man of God, “Look, even if the LORD were to make windows in heaven, could this really happen?” “You will see it with your own eyes,” replied Elisha, “but you will not eat any of it.”
3 Un četri spitālīgi vīri bija vārtu durvīs un tie sacīja cits uz citu: ko še paliekam, kamēr mirstam?
Now there were four men with leprosy at the entrance of the city gate, and they said to one another, “Why just sit here until we die?
4 Ja arī domātu pilsētā tikt, tad pilsētā ir bads, un mēs taču tur mirsim, - un ja te paliksim, tad arī mirsim. Tad nu nāciet, iesim Sīriešu lēģeri, - ja tie mūs pamet dzīvus, tad dzīvosim, un ja tie mūs nokauj, tad mirsim.
If we say, ‘Let us go into the city,’ we will die there from the famine in the city; but if we sit here, we will also die. So come now, let us go over to the camp of the Arameans. If they let us live, we will live; if they kill us, we will die.”
5 Un tie cēlās paša novakarē, iet uz Sīriešu lēģeri, un kad tie nonāca pie Sīriešu lēģera malas, redzi, tad tur nebija neviena.
So they arose at twilight and went to the camp of the Arameans. But when they came to the outskirts of the camp, there was not a man to be found.
6 Jo Tas Kungs Sīriešu spēkam bija licis dzirdēt troksni no ratiem un zirgiem un liela karaspēka troksni, tā ka cits uz citu sacīja: redzi, Israēla ķēniņš pret mums saderējis Hetiešu ķēniņus un ēģiptiešu ķēniņus, ka tie mums uzbrūk.
For the Lord had caused the Arameans to hear the sound of chariots, horses, and a great army, so that they said to one another, “Look, the king of Israel must have hired the kings of the Hittites and Egyptians to attack us.”
7 Tā tie bija cēlušies un bēguši pa krēslu un pametuši savas teltis un savus zirgus un savus ēzeļus, lēģeri, kā tas bija, un bija bēguši, glābt tik dzīvību.
Thus the Arameans had arisen and fled at twilight, abandoning their tents and horses and donkeys. The camp was intact, and they had run for their lives.
8 Kad nu šie spitālīgie nonāca pie lēģera malas, tad tie iegāja vienā teltī, ēda un dzēra, un ņēma no turienes sudrabu un zeltu un drēbes, un nogāja un apslēpa un nāca atkal un gāja citā teltī, un ņēma no turienes arīdzan un nogāja un apslēpa.
When the lepers reached the edge of the camp, they went into a tent to eat and drink. Then they carried off the silver, gold, and clothing, and went and hid them. On returning, they entered another tent, carried off some items from there, and hid them.
9 Tad cits uz citu sacīja: mēs nedarām labi; šī diena ir priecīgas vēsts diena; ja mēs cietīsim klusu un gaidīsim līdz rīta gaismai, tad kritīsim vainā. Nu tad nāciet, iesim un nesīsim ziņu ķēniņa namam.
Finally, they said to one another, “We are not doing what is right. Today is a day of good news. If we are silent and wait until morning light, our sin will overtake us. Now, therefore, let us go and tell the king’s household.”
10 Un tie gāja un sauca pilsētas vārtu sargus un tiem teica sacīdami: mēs gājām Sīriešu lēģerī, un redzi, tur nebija neviena un neviena cilvēka balss, kā vien piesieti zirgi un ēzeļi un teltis kā papriekš.
So they went and called out to the gatekeepers of the city, saying, “We went to the Aramean camp and no one was there—not a trace—only tethered horses and donkeys, and the tents were intact.”
11 Tad sasauca vārtu sargus, un tie nesa to vēsti iekšā ķēniņa namā.
The gatekeepers shouted the news, and it was reported to the king’s household.
12 Un ķēniņš cēlās naktī un sacīja uz saviem kalpiem: es jums teikšu, ko Sīrieši mums darījuši. Tie zina, ka mēs esam badā, tāpēc tie no lēģera ir izgājuši apslēpties laukā, domādami: ja tie no pilsētas nāks ārā, tad mēs tos grābsim dzīvus un ielauzīsimies pilsētā.
So the king got up in the night and said to his servants, “Let me tell you what the Arameans have done to us. They know we are starving, so they have left the camp to hide in the field, thinking, ‘When they come out of the city, we will take them alive and enter the city.’”
13 Tad viens no viņa kalpiem atbildēja un sacīja: lai jel ņem tos pieci atlikušos zirgus, kas pilsētā atlikuši, (redzi, tie ir kā viss Israēla pulks, kas atlicies, vai kā viss Israēla pulks, kas aizgājis bojā); tos sūtīsim izlūkot.
But one of his servants replied, “Please, have scouts take five of the horses that remain in the city. Their plight will be no worse than all the Israelites who are left here. You can see that all the Israelites here are doomed. So let us send them and find out.”
14 Tad tie ņēma divus ratus ar zirgiem, un ķēniņš tos sūtīja Sīriešu karaspēkam pakaļ un sacīja: ejat un izlūkojiet.
Then the scouts took two chariots with horses, and the king sent them after the Aramean army, saying, “Go and see.”
15 Un tie laida tiem pakaļ līdz Jardānei, un redzi, viss ceļš bija pilns drēbju un rīku, ko Sīrieši bēgdami bija nometuši. Un tie vēstneši griezās atpakaļ un to teica ķēniņam.
And they tracked them as far as the Jordan, and indeed, the whole way was littered with the clothing and equipment the Arameans had thrown off in haste. So the scouts returned and told the king.
16 Tad tie ļaudis izgāja un aplaupīja Sīriešu lēģeri, un pūrs kviešu miltu maksāja vienu sēķeli, un divi pūri miežu maksāja arī vienu sēķeli, pēc Tā Kunga vārda.
Then the people went out and plundered the camp of the Arameans. It was then that a seah of fine flour sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley sold for a shekel, according to the word of the LORD.
17 Un ķēniņš to virsnieku, uz kura roku viņš atspiedās, bija iecēlis pār vārtiem, un tie ļaudis viņu samina vārtos, ka tas nomira, pēc tiem vārdiem, ko tas Dieva vīrs bija runājis, kad ķēniņš pie viņa nonāca.
Now the king had appointed the officer on whose arm he leaned to be in charge of the gate, but the people trampled him in the gateway, and he died, just as the man of God had foretold when the king had come to him.
18 Jo tas notika tā, kā tas Dieva vīrs uz ķēniņu bija runājis un sacījis: rītu ap šo laiku pūrs kviešu miltu maksās vienu sēķeli un divi pūri miežu vienu sēķeli Samarijas vārtos,
It happened just as the man of God had told the king: “About this time tomorrow at the gate of Samaria, two seahs of barley will sell for a shekel, and a seah of fine flour will sell for a shekel.”
19 Tad tas virsnieks tam Dieva vīram bija atbildējis un sacījis: redzi, jebšu Tas Kungs taisītu logus debesīs, vai šī lieta varētu notikt? Un tas bija sacījis: redzi, tu to redzēsi ar savām acīm, bet no tā neēdīsi.
And the officer had answered the man of God, “Look, even if the LORD were to make windows in heaven, could this really happen?” So Elisha had replied, “You will see it with your own eyes, but you will not eat any of it!”
20 Un tā viņam notika, jo tie ļaudis viņu samina vārtos, ka tas nomira.
And that is just what happened to him. The people trampled him in the gateway, and he died.
