< 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.
And Eliseus said: Hear ye the word of the Lord: Thus saith the Lord: Tomorrow about this time a bushel of fine hour shall be sold for a stater, and two bushels of barley for a stater, in the gate of Samaria.
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.
Then one of the lords, upon whose hand the king leaned, answering the man of God, said: If the Lord should make flood-gates in heaven, can that possibly be which thou sayest? And he said: Thou shalt see it with thy eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.
3 Un četri spitālīgi vīri bija vārtu durvīs un tie sacīja cits uz citu: ko še paliekam, kamēr mirstam?
Now there were four lepers, at the entering in of the gate: and they said one to another: What mean we to stay here till 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 will enter into the city, we shall die with the famine: and if we will remain here, we must also die: come, therefore, and let us run over to the camp of the Syrians. If they spare us, we shall live: but if they kill us, we shall but 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 in the evening, to go to the Syrian camp, And when they were come to the first part of the camp of the Syrians, they found no man there.
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 made them hear, in the camp of Syria, the noise of chariots, and of horses, and of a very great army, and they said one to another: Behold the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hethites, and of the Egyptians, and they are come upon 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.
Wherefore they arose, and fled away in the dark, and left their tents, and their horses and asses in the camp, and fled, desiring to save 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.
So when these lepers were come to the beginning of the camp, they went into one tent, and ate and drank: and they took from thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went, and hid it: and they came again, and went into another tent, and carried from thence in like manner, and hid it.
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.
Then they said one to another: We do not well: for this is a day of good tidings. If we hold our peace, and do not tell it till the morning, we shall be charged with a crime: come, let us go and tell it in the king’s court.
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 came to the gate of the city, and told them, saying: We went to the camp of the Syrians, and we found no man there, but horses, and asses tied, and the tents standing.
11 Tad sasauca vārtu sargus, un tie nesa to vēsti iekšā ķēniņa namā.
Then the guards of the gate went, and told it within the king’s palace.
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.
And he arose in the night and said to his servants: I tell you what the Syrians have done to us: They know that we suffer great famine, and therefore they are gone out of the camp, and lie hid in the fields, saying: When they come out of the city we shall take them alive, and then we may get into 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.
And one of his servants answered: Let us take the five horses that are remaining in the city (because there are no more in the whole multitude of Israel, for the rest are consumed, ) and let us send and see.
14 Tad tie ņēma divus ratus ar zirgiem, un ķēniņš tos sūtīja Sīriešu karaspēkam pakaļ un sacīja: ejat un izlūkojiet.
They brought therefore two horses, and the king sent into the camp of the Syrians, 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 went after them as far as the Jordan: and behold all the way was full of garments, and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their fright, and the messengers 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.
And the people going out pillaged the camp of the Syrians: and a bushel of fine flour was sold for a stater, and two bushels of barley for a stater, 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.
And the king appointed that lord on whose hand he leaned, to stand at the gate: and the people trod upon him in the entrance of the gate; and he died, as the man of God had said, when the king came down 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,
And it came to pass according to the word of the man of God, which he spoke to the king, when he said: Two bushels of barley shall be for a stater, and a bushel of fine flour for a stater, at this very time tomorrow in the gate of Samaria.
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.
When that lord answered the man of God, and said: Although the Lord should make flood-gates in heaven, could this come to pass which thou sayest? And he said to him: Thou shalt see with thy eyes, and shalt not eat thereof.
20 Un tā viņam notika, jo tie ļaudis viņu samina vārtos, ka tas nomira.
And so it fell out to him as it was foretold, and the people trod upon him in the gate, and he died.
