Piektā Mozus 20
1 Kad tu iesi karā pret saviem ienaidniekiem un redzēsi zirgus un ratus un ļaužu vairāk nekā tu, tad nebīsties no viņiem, jo ar tevi ir Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, kas tevi izvedis no Ēģiptes zemes.
And if you should go forth to war against your enemies, and should see horse, and rider, and a people more numerous than yourself; you shall not be afraid of them, for the Lord your God [is] with you, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.
2 Un kad jūs esat tuvu pie kaujas, tad priesterim būs pieiet un uz tiem ļaudīm runāt.
And it shall come to pass whenever you shall draw near to battle, that the priest shall draw near and speak to the people, and shall say to them,
3 Un uz tiem sacīt: klausies, Israēl, jūs šodien ejat karā pret saviem ienaidniekiem, - lai jūsu sirds nepaliek bailīga, nebīstaties un nebaiļojaties un neiztrūcināties priekš tiem,
Hear, O Israel; you are going this day to battle against your enemies: let not your heart faint, fear not, neither be confounded, neither turn aside from their face.
4 Jo Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, Tas iet jums līdz, par jums karot ar jūsu ienaidniekiem, jūs atpestīt.
For [it is] the Lord your God who advances with you, to fight with you against your enemies, [and] to save you.
5 Tad tiem priekšniekiem būs runāt uz tiem ļaudīm un sacīt: ja kas laban jaunu namu uztaisījis, un to vēl nav iesvētījis, tas lai iet un griežas uz savu namu, ka tas karā nemirst un cits to neiesvēti.
And the scribes shall speak to the people, saying, What man [is] he that has built a new house, and has not dedicated it? let him go and return to his house, lest he die in the war, and another man dedicate it.
6 Un ja kas laban dēstījis vīna dārzu un augļus no tā nav baudījis, tas lai iet un griežas atpakaļ uz savu namu, ka tas karā nemirst un cits nebauda viņa augļus.
And what man [is] he that has planted a vineyard, and not been made merry with it? let him go and return to his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man be made merry with it.
7 Un ja kas laban sievu precējis un to vēl nav pārvedis, tas lai iet un griežas uz savu namu, ka tas karā nemirst un cits to neapņem.
And what man [is] he that has betrothed a wife, and has not taken her? let him go and return to his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man take her.
8 Pēc tam tiem priekšniekiem vēl būs runāt uz tiem ļaudīm un sacīt: ja kas laban bīstas un kam ir bailīga sirds, tas lai iet un griežas uz savu namu, ka tas savu brāļu sirdi neiebaida tā kā savu paša sirdi.
And the scribes shall speak further to the people, and say, What man [is] he that fears and is cowardly in his heart? Let him go and return to his house, lest he make the heart of his brother fail, as his own.
9 Un kad tie priekšnieki ir pabeiguši uz tiem ļaudīm runāt, tad tiem būs iecelt karaspēka virsniekus ļaužu priekšā.
And it shall come to pass when the scribes shall have ceased speaking to the people, that they shall appoint generals of the army to be leaders of the people.
10 Kad tu nāc pie kādas pilsētas pret viņu karot, tad tev būs viņai piedāvāt mieru.
And if you shall draw near to a city to overcome them by war, then call them out peaceably.
11 Un ja tā ar tevi līgs mieru un tev atvērs, tad lai visi ļaudis, kas tur atrodas, tev paliek par klausītājiem un tev kalpo.
If then they should answer peaceably to you, and open to you, it shall be that all the people found in it shall be tributary and subject to you.
12 Bet ja tie mieru ar tevi nelīgs, bet pret tevi karos, tad spiedi tos ar varu.
But if they will not listen to you, but wage war against you, you shall invest it;
13 Un kad Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, to pilsētu nodos tavā rokā, tad visus vīriešus, kas tur ir, tev būs apkaut ar zobena asmeni.
until the Lord your God shall deliver it into your hands, and you shall strike every male of it with the edge of the sword:
14 Bet tās sievas un tos bērniņus un tos lopus un visu, kas tai pilsētā, visu viņu laupījumu, ņem sev un ēd savu ienaidnieku laupījumu, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev ir devis.
except the women and the stuff: and all the cattle, and whatever shall be in the city, and all the plunder you shall take as spoil for yourself, and shall eat all the plunder of your enemies whom the Lord your God gives you.
15 Tā tev būs darīt visām pilsētām, kas tālu no tevis, kas nav no šo tautu pilsētām.
Thus shall you do to all the cities that are very far off from you, not [being] of the cities of these nations which the Lord your God gives you to inherit their land.
16 Bet no šo ļaužu pilsētām, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev dos par īpašumu, tev neko nebūs atstāt dzīvu, kam ir dzīva dvaša.
[Of these] you shall not take any thing alive;
17 Bet izdeldi tos pavisam: Hetiešus, Amoriešus, Kanaāniešus, Fereziešus, Hiviešus un Jebusiešus, itin kā tev Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, ir pavēlējis.
but you shall surely curse them, the Chettite, and the Amorite, and the Chananite, and the Pherezite, and the Evite, and the Jebusite, and the Gergesite; as the Lord your God commanded you:
18 Lai tie jūs nemāca darīt pēc visām savām negantībām, ko tie darījuši saviem dieviem, un lai jūs pret To Kungu, savu Dievu, negrēkojat.
that they may not teach you to do all their abominations, which they did to their gods, and [so] you should sin before the Lord your God.
19 Kad tu kādu pilsētu ilgu laiku apstāsi, pret viņu karodams, lai viņu uzvarētu, tad tev nebūs postīt viņas kokus, cirvi tiem pielikdams; jo tu no tiem vari ēst, bet tev tos nebūs nocirst; jo vai tas koks laukā ir cilvēks, ka tu pret viņu karotu?
And if you should besiege a city many days to prevail against it by war to take it, you shall not destroy its trees, by applying an iron tool to them, but you shall eat of it, and shall not cut it down: Is the tree that is in the field a man, to enter before you into the work of the siege?
20 Bet tos kokus, ko jūs pazīsiet, ka tie nav ēdami koki, tos tu vari postīt un nocirst, un no tiem uzcelt apcietinājumu pret to pilsētu, kas ar tevi karo, kamēr tu to uzvari.
But the tree which you know to be not fruit-bearing, this you shall destroy and cut down; and you shall construct a mound against the city, which makes war against you, until it be delivered up.
