< Piektā Mozus 4 >
1 Nu tad, Israēl, klausi tos likumus un tās tiesas, ko es jums mācu darīt, lai jūs dzīvojat un ienākat un iemantojat to zemi, ko Tas Kungs, jūsu tēvu Dievs, jums dod.
People of Israel, pay attention to the rules and regulations I'm teaching you to observe. That way you can stay alive, and go in and take over the country the Lord, the God of your forefathers, is giving you.
2 Pie tā vārda, ko es jums pavēlu, jums neko nebūs pielikt, nedz no tā ko atraut, ka jūs turat Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, baušļus, ko es jums pavēlu.
You are not to add to or take away from what I'm telling you, so that you can keep the commandments of the Lord your God that I'm ordering you to follow.
3 Jūsu acis ir redzējušas, ko Tas Kungs Baāl-Peora dēļ darījis; jo ikvienu, kas Baāl-Peoram dzinās pakaļ, to Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, ir izdeldējis no jūsu vidus.
You've seen for yourselves what the Lord did at Baal-peor where the Lord your God killed everyone among you who worshiped Baal of Peor.
4 Bet jūs, kas esat pieķērušies Tam Kungam, savam Dievam, jūs šodien visi esat dzīvi.
Those of you who were faithful to the Lord your God are still alive today, every one of you.
5 Redzi, es jums esmu mācījis tos likumus un tās tiesas, itin kā Tas Kungs, mans Dievs, man pavēlējis, lai jūs tā darāt tanī zemē, ko jūs ejat iemantot.
Listen, I have taught you the rules and regulations just as the Lord my God ordered me to do, so you can follow them in the country that you are about to enter and take over.
6 Turat nu tos un darāt tos, jo šī būs jūsu gudrība un jūsu saprašana to ļaužu acīs, kas visus šos likumus dzirdēs un sacīs: tiešām gudri un prātīgi ļaudis ir šī lielā tauta.
Be careful to observe them, because this will demonstrate your wisdom and insight to the other people living there who are watching. They will find out about all these rules and say, “The people of this great nation are very wise and have good insight.”
7 Jo kur ir cita tāda liela tauta, kam dievi tik tuvu, kā Tas Kungs, mūsu Dievs, mums, cikkārt viņu piesaucam?
What nation is as great as us, having a god so close to them as the Lord our God is to us whenever we call on him?
8 Un kur ir cita tāda liela tauta, kam tādi taisni likumi un tiesas, kā visa šī bauslība, ko es šodien lieku jūsu priekšā?
What nation is as great as us, having such good rules and regulations like all these laws that I'm placing before you today?
9 Bet sargies un sargi ļoti savu dvēseli, ka tu neaizmirsti to, ko tavas acis redzējušas, ka tas neizzūd no tavas sirds visās tava mūža dienās.
Just make sure to be very careful, and really watch what you do, so you don't forget the things you've have seen. Keep them in mind as long as you live. Teach them to your children and grandchildren.
10 Un dari to zināmu saviem bērniem un saviem bērnu bērniem. Tai dienā, kad tu stāvēji priekš Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, Horebā, kad Tas Kungs uz mani sacīja: sapulcini Man tos ļaudis, un Es tiem došu dzirdēt Savus vārdus, lai tie mācās Mani bīties visas dienas, cik ilgi tie virs zemes dzīvo, un lai tie tos māca saviem bērniem,
That day when you stood in the presence of the Lord your God at Horeb, the Lord told me, “Have the people come to me and to hear what I have to say, so they may learn to have respect for me throughout their lives here on earth, and so they may teach this to their children.”
11 Tad jūs piegājāt un stāvējāt apakšā pie tā kalna, un tas kalns dega ugunī līdz debess vidum; tur bija tumsa, mākonis un krēsla;
You gathered and stood at the foot of the mountain. The mountain was on fire, shooting out flames into the sky and producing thick dark clouds.
12 Un Tas Kungs runāja uz jums no uguns vidus; jūs dzirdējāt to vārdu balsi, bet jūs neredzējāt nekādu ģīmi, balss vien bija.
The Lord spoke to you from the fire. You heard the words, but you didn't see the form of anyone speaking—there was just a voice.
13 Tad Viņš jums pasludināja Savu derību, ko Viņš jums pavēlēja darīt, (proti) tos desmit vārdus, un tos rakstīja uz diviem akmens galdiņiem.
He explained to you his agreement, the Ten Commandments, which he ordered you to follow. He wrote them down on two tablets of stone.
14 Un Tas Kungs tanī laikā man pavēlēja, lai es jums mācu likumus un tiesas, ko lai jūs dariet tai zemē, ko jūs ejat iemantot.
This was the time that the Lord ordered me to teach you the rules and regulations that you are to follow when you arrive in the country you're going to own once you've crossed the Jordan.
15 Tad nu sargājaties ļoti savu dvēseļu labad; jo jūs nekādu ģīmi neesat redzējuši tai dienā, kad Tas Kungs Horebā uz jums runāja no uguns vidus, -
You didn't see any form when the Lord spoke to you from the fire at Horeb, so be very careful
16 Ka jūs neapgrēkojaties un sev nedarāt nekādu elka bildi, nekāda tēla līdzību, nedz vīra nedz sievas ģīmi,
that you don't spoil your relationship with the Lord by making an idol for yourselves in any shape or form, whether it looks like a male or female,
17 Nekāda lopa ģīmi, kas virs zemes, nekāda spārnaina putna ģīmi, kas apakš debess skraida,
or any land animal or bird that flies,
18 Nekāda tārpa ģīmi, kas virs zemes lien, nekādas zivs ģīmi, kas ūdenī apakš zemes;
or of any animal that crawls on the ground or any fish in the deep sea.
19 Un ka tu savas acis nepacel uz debesīm, uzlūkodams sauli un mēnesi un zvaigznes, visu debespulku, un neliecies kārdināties, viņu priekšā zemē mesties un tiem kalpot; tos Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, ir piešķīris visiem ļaudīm apakš visas debess.
When you look up at the sky and see the sun, moon, and stars—all the heavenly bodies—don't be tempted to bow down to them. Don't worship them like all the other nations on earth in the way that the Lord has allowed.
20 Bet jūs Tas Kungs ir pieņēmis un jūs izvedis no tā dzelzs cepļa, no Ēģiptes, lai jūs esat Viņa īpaša tauta, kā tas šodien ir.
Remember that the Lord took you and led you out of the iron furnace which was Egypt to be his own people, just as you are today.
21 Un Tas Kungs par mani dusmojās jūsu dēļ un zvērēja, ka man nebūs iet pār Jārdani un ka man nebūs nākt uz to labo zemi, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev dod par daļu.
But the Lord was angry with me because of you, and he vowed that I wouldn't cross the Jordan to enter the good land that the Lord your God is giving you to own.
22 Jo man jāmirst šinī zemē un es neiešu pār Jardāni, bet jūs iesiet un iemantosiet šo labo zemi.
So I will not be crossing the Jordan, because I have to die here in this land. But you will cross over and occupy that good land.
23 Tad sargājaties nu, ka jūs neaizmirstat Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, derību, ko Viņš ar jums derējis, ka jūs sev nedarāt nekādu elka bildi, nekādu tēlu, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, ir aizliedzis.
However, be careful not to forget the agreement of the Lord your God that he made with you. Don't make an idol for yourselves in the form of anything, because he has forbidden you to do this.
24 Jo Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, ir rijoša uguns, stiprs Dievs, dusmotājs.
For the Lord your God is a fire that burns everything up. He is an exclusive God.
25 Kad nu jūs dzemdināsiet bērnus un bērnu bērnus un tapsiet veci tai zemē un apgrēkosities, darīdami kādu elka bildi, jeb kādas lietas tēlu, un grēkosiet priekš Tā Kunga, sava Dieva vaiga, Viņu apkaitinādami,
After you have been living in the country for a long time and have had children and grandchildren, if you then spoil the relationship you have with the Lord and make an idol in any form. The Lord your God sees this as evil makes him angry.
26 Tad pār jums šodien piesaucu debesis un zemi par lieciniekiem, ka jūs bojā iesiet piepeši no tās zemes virsas, uz kurieni jūs ejat pār Jardāni to iemantot; jūs tur ilgi nepaliksiet, bet ar izdeldēšanu tapsiet izdeldēti.
If you do this, I call on heaven and earth to be witnesses against you today that you will be completely wiped out from the country that you are crossing the Jordan to occupy. You will not live long there—you will be totally destroyed.
27 Un Tas Kungs jūs izkaisīs starp tautām un no jums atliksies mazs pulciņš starp pagāniem, kurp Tas Kungs jūs aizdzīs.
The Lord will scatter you among the other nations, and not many of you will survive in the countries where the Lord has exiled you.
28 Un tur jūs kalposiet dieviem, kas ir cilvēku rokas darbs, koks un akmens, kas ne redz, ne dzird, ne ēd, ne ož.
There you will worship gods of wood and stone made by human beings. These idols can't see or hear or eat or smell.
29 Tad tur jūs meklēsiet To Kungu, savu Dievu, un Viņu atradīsiet, kad meklēsi no visas savas sirds un no visas savas dvēseles.
However, if while you're there you decide to come to the Lord your God, you will find him if you come to him whole-heartedly, with complete commitment.
30 Kad būsi bēdās un visas šīs lietas tev notiks nākamās dienās, tad tu atgriezīsies pie Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, un klausīsi Viņa balsi.
When you are in trouble, after you've experienced all these things, then eventually you will return to the Lord your God and do what he says.
31 Jo sirds žēlīgs Dievs ir Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs; Viņš tevi neatstās, nedz tevi izdeldēs, nedz aizmirsīs tavu tēvu derību, ko Viņš tiem ir zvērējis.
The Lord your God is a merciful God. He won't abandon you or destroy you or forget the agreement he made with your forefathers, confirmed by a solemn promise.
32 Jo vaicā jel pēc tiem pagājušiem laikiem, kas priekš tevis bijuši no tās dienas, kad Dievs cilvēku virs zemes radījis, no viena debess gala līdz otram, vai tāda lieta ir notikusi, kā šī, vai dzirdēta, kā šī?
Think about it! Examine the whole of history from the beginning of time, long before you existed, when God made human beings, right up until now. Ask this question anywhere, from one end of the earth to the other: Has anything as amazing as this ever happened before; has anyone ever heard anything like this?
33 Vai kādi ļaudis dzirdējuši Dieva balsi runājam no uguns vidus, kā tu esi dzirdējis, un palikuši dzīvi?
Has a people ever heard the voice of God speaking out of the fire, like you have, and survived?
34 Jeb vai Dievs ir apņēmies iet un Sev vienu tautu ņemt no tautu vidus caur pārbaudīšanām, caur zīmēm un caur brīnumiem un caur karu un caur stipru roku un caur izstieptu elkoni un caur lielām iztrūcināšanām, kā visu to Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, jums darījis priekš jūsu acīm Ēģiptes zemē?
Has any god tried to take a nation out of another nation and make them his own, using tests and signs and miracles and war—with his great power and incredible strength and terrifying actions—like the Lord your God did for you in Egypt, before your very eyes?
35 Tev tas ir rādīts, lai tu zini, ka Tas Kungs ir Dievs, cits neviens, kā tik Viņš.
You were shown all this so you could be certain that the Lord is God and there is no one like him.
36 No debesīm Viņš tev licis dzirdēt Savu balsi, tevi pamācīdams, un virs zemes Viņš tev rādījis Savu lielo uguni, un tu Viņa vārdus esi dzirdējis no uguns vidus.
He made you hear his voice from heaven so you would obey him. On earth he revealed himself though blazing fire, and you heard him speak to you from the fire.
37 Un tāpēc, ka Viņš tavus tēvus bija mīlējis un izredzējis viņu dzimumu pēc viņiem, tad Viņš tevi izvedis ar Savu vaigu no Ēģiptes zemes caur Savu lielo spēku,
Because he loved your forefathers, he chose you, their descendants. He himself led you out of Egypt by his great power,
38 Gribēdams izdzīt tavā priekšā lielas tautas, kas jo stiprākas nekā tu, un tevi ievest viņu zemē, un tev to dot par daļu, kā tas šodien ir.
driving out ahead of you nations that were greater and stronger than you, in order to lead you to their land and give it to you as yours to own, just as you do today.
39 Tā tev šodien būs zināt, un savā sirdī pieminēt, ka Tas Kungs ir Dievs augšā debesīs un apakšā virs zemes, un cits neviens.
So today be sure about this and never forget: the Lord is the only God in heaven above and on the earth below.
40 Un tev būs turēt Viņa likumus un Viņa baušļus, ko es tev šodien pavēlu, lai labi klājās tev un taviem bērniem pēc tevis, un lai tavas dienas top pagarinātas tai zemē, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev dod mūžīgi.
Observe his rules and regulations that I'm giving you right now, so that you and your children will do well, and that you may have long lives in the country that the Lord your God is giving you for all time.
41 Tad Mozus atšķīra trīs pilsētas viņpus Jardānes pret saules uzlēkšanu,
Then Moses assigned three sanctuary towns to the east of the Jordan
42 Ka uz turieni bēgtu tas nokāvējs, kas savu tuvāko netīši nositis, ar ko viņš agrāk nebija ienaidā, ka tas nobēgtu uz vienu no šīm pilsētām un paliktu dzīvs, -
where a person could run to after accidentally killing someone without deliberate hatred. To save their life they could run to one of these towns:
43 Beceru tuksnesī, klajā zemē, priekš Rūbeniešiem, un Rāmotu Gileādā priekš Gadiešiem, un Golanu Basanā priekš Manasiešiem.
Bezer in the desert plain belonging to the tribe of Reuben; Ramoth in Gilead belonging to the tribe of Gad, or Golan in Bashan belonging to the tribe of Manasseh.
44 Šī nu ir tā bauslība, ko Mozus lika priekšā Israēla bērniem;
This is the law that Moses placed before the Israelites.
45 Šīs tās liecības un tie likumi un tās tiesas, ko Mozus uz Israēla bērniem runāja, kad tie bija izgājuši no Ēģiptes zemes,
These are the laws, rules, and regulations Moses gave them after they had come out of Egypt.
46 Viņpus Jardānes, tai ielejā Bet-Peoram pretī, Sihona, Amoriešu ķēniņa zemē, kas Hešbonā dzīvoja, ko Mozus un Israēla bērni sakāva, kad tie bija izgājuši no Ēģiptes zemes.
This was when they were in the valley to the east of the Jordan near Beth-peor in the country of Sihon king of the Amorites. He had ruled from Heshbon and had been defeated by Moses and the Israelites after they had left Egypt.
47 Un tie viņa zemi bija iemantojuši, arī Oga, Basanas ķēniņa, zemi, to divu Amoriešu ķēniņu zemi, kas viņpus Jardānes pret saules lēkšanu,
They took over his country and the country of Og king of Bashan. (They were the two kings of the Amorites who previously ruled on the east side of the Jordan.)
48 No Aroēra, kas pie Arnonas upes krasta, līdz Sihona kalnam, tas ir Hermons,
The territory went from the town of Aroer on the edge of the Arnon Valley all the way to Mount Sirion, otherwise known as Mount Hermon,
49 Un visu klajumu viņpus Jardānes pret rītiem līdz klajuma ezeram apakš Pizgas pakalniem.
and included all the Arabah to the east of the Jordan down as far as the Dead Sea beside the slopes of Mount Pisgah.
