< Jozuas 2 >
1 Un Jozuas, Nuna dēls, sūtīja slepeni divus izlūkus no Sitimas sacīdams: ejat, izlūkojiet to zemi un Jēriku. Un tie gāja un nāca kādas sievas namā, tā bija mauka, tai vārds bija Rahaba, un tie tur gulēja.
And Joshua son of Nun silently sends two men, spies, from Shittim, saying, “Go, see the land—and Jericho”; and they go and come into the house of a woman, a harlot, and her name [is] Rahab, and they lie down there.
2 Un Jērikus ķēniņam tapa sacīts: redzi, šinī naktī vīri nākuši no Israēla bērniem, to zemi izlūkot.
And it is told to the king of Jericho, saying, “Behold, men have come in here tonight, from the sons of Israel, to search the land.”
3 Tad Jērikus ķēniņš sūtīja pie Rahabas un sacīja: dod šurp tos vīrus, kas pie tevis nākuši tavā namā, jo tie ir nākuši, visu šo zemi izlūkot.
And the king of Jericho sends to Rahab, saying, “Bring out the men who are coming to you, who have come into your house, for they have come to search the entirety of the land.”
4 Bet tā sieva ņēma tos divus vīrus un tos paslēpa un sacīja tā: tie vīri gan pie manis bija nākuši, bet es nezināju, no kurienes tie bija.
And the woman takes the two men, and hides them, and says thus: “The men came to me, and I have not known where they [are] from;
5 Un kad vārti bija jāaizslēdz, kad metās tumšs, tad tie vīri izgāja. Es nezinu, kurp tie vīri gājuši; dzenaties tiem steigšus pakaļ, tad jūs tos panāksiet.
and it comes to pass—the gate is to [be] shut—in the dark, and the men have gone out; I have not known to where the men have gone; pursue, hurry after them, for you overtake them”;
6 Bet viņa tiem bija likusi uz jumtu uzkāpt un tos bija paslēpusi apakš linājiem, ko uz jumta bija izklājusi.
and she has caused them to go up on the roof, and hides them with the flax wood, which is arranged for her on the roof.
7 Un tie vīri tiem dzinās pakaļ pa Jardānes ceļu līdz tai pārceļamai vietai, un vārti tapa aizslēgti pēc tam, kad bija izgājuši, kas tiem dzinās pakaļ.
And the men have pursued after them the way of the Jordan, by the fords, and they have shut the gate afterward when the pursuers have gone out after them.
8 Un pirms tie apgūlās, viņa pie tiem uzkāpa uz jumtu.
And before they lie down, she has gone up to them on the roof,
9 Un sacīja uz tiem vīriem: es zinu, ka Tas Kungs jums šo zemi devis un ka bailes no jums mums uzkritušas, un ka visi zemes iedzīvotāji jūsu priekšā izbijušies.
and she says to the men, “I have known that YHWH has given the land to you, and that your terror has fallen on us, and that all the inhabitants of the land have melted at your presence.
10 Jo mēs esam dzirdējuši, kā Tas Kungs licis izsīkt niedru jūras ūdeņiem jūsu priekšā, jums no Ēģiptes zemes izejot, un ko jūs esat darījuši viņpus Jardānes tiem diviem Amoriešu ķēniņiem, Sihonam un Ogam, ko jūs esat izdeldējuši.
For we have heard how YHWH dried up the waters of the Red Sea at your presence, in your going out of Egypt, and that which you have done to the two kings of the Amorite who [are] beyond the Jordan; to Sihon and to Og whom you devoted.
11 Un to dzirdot mūsu sirds palikusi bailīga, un nav vairs drošības nevienam pret jums; jo Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, Viņš ir Dievs augšā debesīs un apakšā virs zemes.
And we hear, and our heart melts, and there has not stood anymore spirit in [any] man from your presence, for He, your God YHWH, [is] God in the heavens above and on the earth below.
12 Nu tad zvērējiet man jel pie Tā Kunga, tāpēc ka es žēlastību pie jums esmu darījusi, ka arī jūs darīsiet žēlastību pie mana tēva nama, un dodat man kādu ticamu zīmi,
And now, please swear to me by YHWH—because I have done kindness with you—that you have done, even you, kindness with the house of my father, and have given a true token to me,
13 Ka jūs atstāsiet dzīvus manu tēvu, manu māti un manus brāļus un manas māsas ar visu, kas tiem pieder, un ka jūs mūsu dvēseles izglābsiet no nāves.
and have kept alive my father, and my mother, and my brothers, and my sisters, and all that they have, and have delivered our souls from death.”
14 Tad tie vīri uz to sacīja: ja mēs nedarīsim žēlastību un uzticību pie tevis, kad Tas Kungs mums šo zemi dos, tad lai mirst mūsu dvēsele jūsu vietā, ja tik jūs šo mūsu lietu nedarīsiet zināmu.
And the men say to her, “Our soul to die for yours; if you do not declare this—our matter, then it has been, in YHWH’s giving this land to us, that we have done kindness and truth with you.”
15 Tad viņa tos ar virvi nolaida pa logu, jo viņas nams bija pie pilsētas mūra un viņa dzīvoja pie tā mūra.
And she causes them to go down by a rope through the window, for her house [is] in the side of the wall, and she [is] dwelling in the wall;
16 Un viņa uz tiem sacīja: ejat kalnos, ka tie jūs nesastop, kas jums dzenās pakaļ, un paslēpjaties tur trīs dienas, tiekams tie vajātāji atgriezīsies, tad pēc ejat savu ceļu.
and she says to them, “Go to the mountain, lest the pursuers come on you; and you have been hidden there three days until the turning back of the pursuers, and afterward you go on your way.”
17 Tad tie vīri uz viņu sacīja: mēs būsim vaļā no šī tava zvēresta, ko tu mums lieci zvērēt:
And the men say to her, “We are acquitted of this, your oath, which you have caused us to swear:
18 Redzi, kad mēs nākam tai zemē, tad piesien pie sava loga šo sarkano virvi, ar ko tu mūs nolaidi, un sapulcini pie sevis šai namā savu tēvu un savu māti un savus brāļus un visu tava tēva namu.
behold, we are coming into the land, bind this line of scarlet thread to the window by which you have caused us to go down, and gather your father, and your mother, and your brothers, and all the house of your father to you, to the house;
19 Un ikviens, kas pa tava nama durvīm izies ārā, tā asinis lai paliek uz viņa galvas, un mēs būsim nevainīgi. Bet ikviens, kas pie tevis būs namā, tā asinis lai paliek uz mūsu galvas, ja kas savu roku pie viņa pieliks.
and it has been, anyone who goes out from the doors of your house outside, his blood [is] on his head, and we are innocent; and anyone who is with you in the house, his blood [is] on our head, if a hand is on him;
20 Bet ja tu šo mūsu lietu darīsi zināmu, tad mēs būsim vaļā no šī zvēresta, ko tu mums likusi zvērēt.
and if you declare this—our matter, then we have been acquitted from your oath which you have caused us to swear.”
21 Tad viņa sacīja: lai tā ir, kā jūs sakāt. Un viņa tos atlaida, un tie aizgāja; un viņa to sarkano virvi piesēja pie loga.
And she says, “According to your words, so it [is]”; and she sends them away, and they go; and she binds the scarlet line to the window.
22 Tā tie aizgāja un nāca kalnos un palika tur trīs dienas, tiekams tie vajātāji bija atpakaļ griezušies; jo tie vajātāji tos bija meklējuši pa visiem ceļiem, bet nebija atraduši.
And they go, and come to the mountain, and abide there three days until the pursuers have turned back; and the pursuers seek in all the way, and have not found.
23 Tad tie divi vīri griezās atpakaļ un nonāca no tiem kalniem un cēlās pāri un nāca pie Jozuas, Nuna dēla, un teica tam visu, kas tiem bija noticis.
And the two men turn back, and come down from the hill, and pass over, and come to Joshua son of Nun, and recount to him all that has come on them;
24 Un tie sacīja uz Jozua: tiešām Tas Kungs visu to zemi ir devis mūsu rokās, un visi zemes iedzīvotāji no mums bīstas.
and they say to Joshua, “Surely YHWH has given all the land into our hand; and also, all the inhabitants of the land have melted at our presence.”
