Piektā Mozus 1
1 Šie ir tie vārdi, ko Mozus runāja uz visu Israēli viņpus Jardānes tuksnesī, tai klajumā pret Sūfu, starp Pāranu un Tovelu un Labanu un Hacerotu un Dizaābu,
In this book is written what Moses/I said to the Israeli people. He/I told them these things when they/we were in the desert, on the east side of the Jordan [River]. They/We had set up our tents near [a place named] Suph, between Paran [town on the one side of the river] and Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth, and Dizahab [towns on the other side of the river].
2 Vienpadsmit dienu gājumus no Horeba, pa Seīra kalna ceļu līdz Kādeš-Barneai.
To walk from Sinai [Mountain] to the Kadesh-Barnea [oasis], people usually travel for only eleven days, going by way of the hilly area named Edom.
3 Un notikās četrdesmitā gadā, vienpadsmitā mēnesī, pirmā mēneša dienā, tad Mozus runāja uz Israēla bērniem, kā Tas Kungs viņam priekš tiem bija pavēlējis,
Forty years after (the Israelis/we) left Egypt, in the middle of January, Moses/I told the Israeli people everything that Yahweh had commanded him/me to tell them.
4 Pēc tam, kad viņš bija sakāvis Sihonu, Amoriešu ķēniņu, kas dzīvoja Hešbonā, un Ogu, Basanas ķēniņu, kas dzīvoja Astarotā un Edrejā.
This was after they/we had defeated Sihon, the king of the Amor people-group, who lived in Heshbon [city], and Og, the king of the Bashan [region] who lived in Ashtaroth and Edrei [towns].
5 Viņpus Jardānes, Moaba zemē, Mozus sāka šo bauslību izskaidrot sacīdams:
Moses/I told them these things while the people were in the Moab region, on the east side of the Jordan [River]. He/I (explained to them/enabled them to understand) God’s laws. This is what he/I said to them:
6 Tas Kungs mūsu Dievs runāja uz mums Horeba kalnā un sacīja: jūs gan ilgi esat palikuši pie šā kalna.
“Yahweh our God said to us when we were at Sinai [Mountain], ‘You have stayed for a very long time at [the bottom of] this mountain.
7 Griežaties un ceļaties un ejat uz Amoriešu kalniem un pie visiem viņu kaimiņiem klajumā, kalnos un lejā un pret dienvidiem un jūras malā, uz Kanaāna zemi un uz Lībanu, līdz tai lielai upei, tai Eifrat upei.
So now continue traveling. Go to the hilly area where the Amor people-group lives and to the nearby areas—to the Jordan [River] Valley, to the hilly region, to the western (foothills/hills at the bottom of the mountains), to the desert area to the south, to the [Mediterranean] Seacoast, to all of Canaan land, to the Lebanon [Mountains], and [northeast] to the great Euphrates River.
8 Redzi, Es jums nododu šo zemi, ejat, uzņemat to zemi, ko Tas Kungs jūsu tēviem Ābrahāmam, Īzakam un Jēkabam ir zvērējis, dot viņiem un viņu dzimumam pēc viņiem.
Note that I will give that land to you. I, Yahweh, promised to your ancestors Abraham and Isaac and Jacob that I would give it to them and to their descendants. So now go and occupy it.’”
9 Un tanī laikā es uz jums runāju un sacīju: es viens pats jūs nevaru panest.
Moses/I also said to the people, “When [we were still at Sinai Mountain], I told your ancestors ‘It is a very big burden/responsibility for me to govern all of you. So I cannot do it by myself.
10 Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, jūs ir vairojis, un redzi, jūs šodien esat savā pulkā tā kā debess zvaigznes.
Yahweh our God has caused us Israelis to now become as numerous as the stars in the sky.
11 Tas Kungs, jūsu tēvu Dievs, lai vēl pie jums pieliek, ka esat tūkstoškārt vairāk, un lai jūs svētī, itin kā Viņš uz jums ir runājis.
And I hope/desire that Yahweh, the God whom our ancestors [worshiped], will cause us to become 1,000 times as numerous as we are now and that he will bless us just like he promised to do.
12 Kā man vienam būs panest jūsu grūtumu un nastu un strīdu?
But I certainly cannot [RHQ] (solve/deal with) all of your complaints/problems.
13 Dabūjat sev gudrus, prātīgus un zināmus vīrus pēc savām ciltīm, lai tos jums ieceļu par virsniekiem.
So choose some men from your tribes who are wise and who have good sense and who are respected. Then I will appoint them to be your leaders.’
14 Un jūs man atbildējāt sacīdami: tas ir labs vārds, ko tu runā, ka to gribi darīt.
Your ancestors replied, ‘What you have suggested is good for us to do.’
15 Tad es ņēmu jūsu cilšu virsniekus, gudrus un zināmus vīrus, un tos iecēlu par virsniekiem pār jums, virsniekus pār tūkstošiem un virsniekus pār simtiem un virsniekus pār piecdesmitiem un virsniekus pār desmitiem un uzraugus pēc jūsu ciltīm.
So I took the wise and respected men [that your ancestors chose] from your tribes, and I appointed them to be your leaders. I appointed some to (rule/have authority) over 1,000 people, some to have authority over 100 people, some to have authority over 50 people, and some to have authority over ten people. I also appointed other officers from throughout your tribes.
16 Un es jūsu soģiem tanī laikā pavēlēju un sacīju: pārklausinājiet tās lietas starp jūsu brāļiem un tiesājiet taisni starp ikvienu un viņa brāli un viņa piedzīvotāju.
I instructed/told your leaders, ‘Listen to the disputes that occur among your people. Judge each dispute, including disputes between close relatives and quarrels between your people and people from other countries who live among you.
17 Tiesā jums nebūs uzlūkot vaigu, tāpat mazo kā lielo jums būs klausīt, no neviena jums nebūs bīties, jo tas sods pieder Dievam; bet to lietu, kas priekš jums par grūtu, to jums būs nest pie manis, un es to klausīšu.
You must (be impartial/not favor one person more than another); you must treat poor people and important people equally. You must not worry about what anyone will think [about how you decide matters], because you will decide matters as God [wants you to]. If any quarrel/dispute is very difficult and you are unable to decide it, bring it to me, and I will decide.’
18 Tā es jums tanī laikā pavēlēju visas lietas, kas jums bija jādara. -
At that time I also told you other things that you should do.”
19 Tad mēs cēlāmies no Horeba un gājām caur visu to lielo un briesmīgo tuksnesi, ko jūs esat redzējuši, pa to ceļu uz Amoriešu kalniem, itin kā Tas Kungs, mūsu Dievs, mums bija pavēlējis, un mēs nācām uz Kādeš-Barneū.
“Then, just like Yahweh our God commanded us, we left Sinai [Mountain] and went through that huge desert that was very (dangerous/difficult to travel through), on the road to the hilly area where the Amor people-group live. We arrived at Kadesh-Barnea.
20 Tad es jums sacīju: jūs esat nākuši pie Amoriešu kalniem, ko Tas Kungs, mūsu Dievs, mums dos.
I said to your ancestors, ‘We have now come to the hilly area where the Amor people-group live. This is part of the area that Yahweh our God, the one whom our ancestors [worshiped], is giving to us.
21 Redzi, Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev ir devis to zemi, celies, uzņem to, kā Tas Kungs, tavu tēvu Dievs, uz tevi runājis; nebīsties un neiztrūcinājies.
Note that Yahweh our God is giving this land to us. So go and occupy it as he commanded. Do not be (at all/even a little bit) afraid.’
22 Tad jūs visi nācāt pie manis un sacījāt: sūtīsim vīrus savā priekšā, mums to zemi izlūkot un mums ziņu atnest, pa kuru ceļu lai ejam uz turieni, un par tām pilsētām, kurp nāksim.
But all of your ancestors came to me and said, ‘Before we go, we should [first] send some men there to explore the land, in order that they can return and tell us which will be the best road to go there and what kind of towns are there.’
23 Tad man šī lieta patika un es ņēmu no jums divpadsmit vīrus, no ikvienas cilts vienu vīru.
I thought that it would be good to do that, so I chose twelve men, one man from each tribe.
24 Un tie griezās un gāja uz tiem kalniem un nāca pie Eškoles upes un to izlūkoja.
They went up into the hilly area as far as Eshcol Valley, and they explored all that area.
25 Un tie ņēma no tiem zemes augļiem savā rokā un atnesa tos pie mums un stāstīja mums un sacīja: tā zeme, ko Tas Kungs, mūsu Dievs, mums dos, ir laba.
They picked some of the fruit that they found there and brought it to us. They reported that the land that Yahweh our God was giving to us is very good/fertile.”
26 Bet jūs negribējāt iet un bijāt nepaklausīgi Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, vārdam.
“But your ancestors refused to go [and conquer that land]. They rebelled against what Yahweh our God had commanded them to do, and they would not go into that land.
27 Un jūs kurnējāt savos dzīvokļos un sacījāt: tāpēc ka Tas Kungs mūs ienīst, Viņš mūs izvedis no Ēģiptes zemes, mūs nodot Amoriešu rokā un mūs izdeldēt.
Your ancestors [stayed] in their tents and complained saying ‘Yahweh hates us. So he has brought us here from Egypt just to allow the Amor people-group to destroy us.
28 Kurp mums iet? Mūsu brāļi mūsu sirdi darījuši bailīgu sacīdami: tur ir ļaudis lielāki un garāki nekā mēs, tās pilsētas ir lielas un stipras līdz pat debesīm, un mēs tur arī esam redzējuši Enaka bērnus.
(Why should we go there?/We do not want to go there.) [RHQ] The men whom we sent there have caused us to become very discouraged/afraid. They have told us that the people there are much stronger and taller than we are and that there are extremely high [HYP] walls around their towns. Also they reported that they saw [giants there that are] descendants of Anak.’
29 Tad es uz jums sacīju: neiztrūcināties un nebīstaties no tiem.
Then I said to your ancestors, ‘Do not be afraid (at all/even a little bit) [DOU] of those people!
30 Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, kas iet jūsu priekšā, karos par jums, itin kā Viņš pie jums ir darījis Ēģiptes zemē priekš jūsu acīm,
Yahweh our God will go ahead of you, and he will fight for you, just like you saw him do for you in Egypt
31 Un tuksnesī, kur tu esi redzējis, kā Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tevi nesis, itin kā vīrs savu dēlu nes, uz visiem ceļiem, kur tu esi gājis, tiekams jūs esat nākuši līdz šai vietai.
and in the desert. You saw how he brought you safely here, like a man would carry his son. [SIM]’
32 Bet arī pie šī vārda jūs neticējāt uz To Kungu, savu Dievu,
[I reminded them that] he always went ahead of them while they traveled [in the desert]. He directed them by [a pillar of] fire during the night and a [pillar of] cloud during the day. He showed them places to set up their tents. But in spite of what I said, your ancestors would not trust Yahweh our God.
33 Kas jūsu priekšā gāja ceļā, jums izlūkodams to vietu, kur jums apmesties pa nakti, ugunī jums rādīdams to ceļu, kas jums bija jāstaigā, un pa dienu padebesī.
34 Kad nu Tas Kungs jūsu vārdu balsi dzirdēja, tad Viņš apskaitās un zvērēja sacīdams:
Yahweh heard what they said, and he became angry. He solemnly declared,
35 Nevienam no šiem vīriem, no šā niknā auguma, nebūs redzēt to labo zemi, ko Es esmu zvērējis dot jūsu tēviem,
‘Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, will enter the land. He has obeyed me completely. So I will give to him and to his descendants [some of] the land that he explored. He is the only one of all you people who will enter that land. None of these evil people will ever see that good land which I solemnly promised to give to your ancestors.’
36 Kā vien Kālebam, Jefunna dēlam, tam to būs redzēt, un tam Es došu to zemi, kur viņš staigājis, un viņa bērniem, tāpēc ka viņš pareizi klausījis Tam Kungam.
37 Tas Kungs arī par mani apskaitās jūsu dēļ un sacīja: arī tu tur nenonāksi.
But because of [what] your ancestors [did], Yahweh was also angry with me. He said to me, ‘You also will not enter that land.
38 Jozuas, Nuna dēls, kas stāv tavā priekšā, tas tur nonāks; stiprini viņu, jo tas Israēlim to zemi izdalīs.
Joshua, the son of Nun, who is your helper, will enter it. Encourage him, because he is the one who will enable you Israeli people to occupy that land.’
39 Un jūsu bērniņi, par kuriem jūs sacījāt, ka būšot par laupījumu, un jūsu bērni, kas šodien nezin nedz laba nedz ļauna, tie tur nonāks, un tiem Es to došu, un tiem to būs iemantot.
Then Yahweh said to all of us, ‘You said that your children would be captured by your enemies. Because they are very young, they do not yet know what is good and what is evil. But they are the ones to whom I will give that land, and they will enter it and occupy it.
40 Bet jūs griežaties un ejat uz tuksnesi pa niedru jūras ceļu.
But as for you, turn around and go back into the desert, toward the (Red Sea/Gulf of Aqaba).’
41 Tad jūs man atbildējāt un sacījāt: mēs pret To Kungu esam grēkojuši, mēs celsimies un karosim, kā Tas Kungs, mūsu Dievs, mums ir pavēlējis. Kad nu jūs ikviens ar saviem rīkiem apbruņojaties un bijāt gatavi iet uz tiem kalniem,
Then your ancestors replied, ‘We have sinned; we have disobeyed Yahweh. So we will go and attack [the people who live in] that land, just like Yahweh our God commanded us to do.’ And each of their men put on his weapons, and they thought that it would be easy to invade the hilly region.
42 Tad Tas Kungs uz mani sacīja: saki viņiem, neceļaties un nekarojiet, jo Es neesmu jūsu vidū, ka netopat sakauti savu ienaidnieku priekšā.
But Yahweh said to me, ‘Tell them, “Do not go up there and attack those people, because I will not go with you. If you go, your enemies will defeat you.”’
43 Bet kad es uz jums runāju, tad jūs neklausījāt un turējaties Tā Kunga vārdam pretī un palikāt pārgalvīgi un gājāt uz tiem kalniem.
So I told that to your ancestors, but they would not heed what I said. They [again] rebelled against what Yahweh commanded them to do. Their soldiers proudly/arrogantly marched up into that hilly region.
44 Tad tie Amorieši, kas tanīs kalnos dzīvoja, jums izgāja pretī un dzinās jums pakaļ, kā bites dara, un jūs sakāva Seīrā līdz Hormai.
Then the men of the Amor people-group who lived in that region came out [of their towns] and attacked those soldiers. They pursued your ancestors’ soldiers like [a swarm of] bees pursues people, and they pursued them [south] from the Edom area and defeated them at Hormah [city].
45 Kad jūs nu atgriezušies Tā Kunga priekšā raudājāt, tad Tas Kungs neklausīja jūsu balsi un negrieza Savas ausis uz jums.
So your ancestors went back [to Kadesh-Barnea] and cried out to request Yahweh [to help them], but he did not heed them. He did not pay any attention to them [DOU].
46 Un jūs palikāt Kādešā ilgu laiku, tās dienas, ko tur esat dzīvojuši.
So we stayed there at Kadesh-Barnea for a long time.”
