Jozuas 23

1 Un pēc ilga laika, kad Tas Kungs Israēlim mieru bija devis no visiem viņu ienaidniekiem visapkārt, un kad Jozuas bija vecs palicis un stipri gados,

And it came to pass after many days after the Lord had given Israel rest from all his enemies round about, that Joshua was old and advanced in years.

2 Tad Jozuas sasauca visus Israēla vecajus un viņu virsniekus un viņu soģus un viņu priekšniekus un uz tiem sacīja: es esmu vecs palicis un stipri gados, -

And Joshua called together all the children of Israel, and their elders, and their chiefs, and their judges, and their officers; and said to them, I am old and advanced in years.

3 Un jūs visu esat redzējuši, ko Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, darījis visām šīm tautām jūsu priekšā, jo Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, tas priekš jums ir karojis.

And you have seen all that the Lord our God has done to all these nations before us; [for it] is the Lord your God who has fought for you.

4 Redziet, šās atlikušās tautas es caur mesliem jums esmu devis par daļu jūsu ciltīm, no Jardānes (sākot), un visas tautas, ko es esmu izdeldējis, un līdz tai lielai jūrai pret saules noiešanu.

See, that I have given to you these nations that are left to you by lots to your tribes, all the nations beginning at Jordan; and [some] I have destroyed; and the boundaries shall be at the great sea westward.

5 Un Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, pats tos izdzīs jūsu priekšā un tos no jums aizdzīs, un jūs iemantosiet viņu zemi, tā kā Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, uz jums runājis.

And the Lord our God, he shall destroy them before us, until they utterly perish; and he shall send against them the wild beasts, until he shall have utterly destroyed them and their kings from before you; and you shall inherit their land, as the Lord our God said to you.

6 Tad nu esat ļoti stipri, turēt un darīt visu, kas rakstīts Mozus bauslības grāmatā, ka jūs no tās neatkāpjaties ne uz labo, ne uz kreiso pusi.

Do you therefore strive diligently to observe and do all things written in the book of the law of Moses, that you turn not to the right hand or to the left;

7 Ka jūs nenoejat pie šīm tautām, kas pie jums atlikušas, un nepieminiet viņu dievu vārdu, un nezvērējiet pie viņiem un nekalpojiet viņiem un nemetaties zemē priekš viņiem,

that you go not in among these nations that are left; and the names of their gods shall not be named among you, neither shall you serve them, neither shall you bow down to them.

8 Bet pieķeraties Tam Kungam, savam Dievam, kā jūs esat darījuši līdz šai dienai.

But you shall cleave to the Lord our God, as you have done until this day.

9 Tā Tas Kungs jūsu priekšā ir izdzinis lielas un varenas tautas, un neviens priekš jums nav pastāvējis līdz šai dienai.

And the Lord shall destroy them before you, [even] great and strong nations; and no one has stood before us until this day.

10 Viens vīrs no jums dzen tūkstošus, jo Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, Tas priekš jums karo, tā kā Viņš jums runājis.

One of you has chased a thousand, for the Lord our God, he fought for you, as he said to us.

11 Tāpēc sargājat savas dvēseles ļoti, ka jūs mīļojat To Kungu, savu Dievu.

And take you great heed to love the Lord our God.

12 Jo kad jūs nogriezīsities un pieķersities šīm tautām, kas pie jums atlikušas un apsvainosities(saradosities) ar viņām un iesiet pie viņām un tās pie jums,

For if you shall turn aside and attach yourselves to these nations that are left with you, and make marriages with them, and become mingled with them and they with you,

13 Tad ziniet tiešām, ka Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, joprojām visas šās tautas jūsu priekšā neizdzīs, bet tās jums tiks par slazda valgu un par tīklu un par pātagu jūsu sānos un par ērkšķiem jūsu acīs, tiekams jūs iesiet bojā no šīs labās zemes, ko Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, jums devis.

know that the Lord will no more destroy these nations from before you; and they will be to you snares and stumbling blocks, and nails in your heels, and darts in your eyes, until you be destroyed from off this good land, which the Lord your God has given you.

14 Un redzi, es aizeju šodien visas pasaules ceļu; tad nu atzīstat no visas sirds un no visas dvēseles, ka neviena vārda netrūkst no visiem labiem vārdiem, ko Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, uz jums runājis; visi jums ir nākuši, no tiem netrūkst neviena vārda.

But I hasten to go the way [of death], as all that are upon the earth also [do]: and you know in your heart and in your soul, that not one word has fallen [to the ground] of all the words which the Lord our God has spoken respecting all that concerns us; there has not one of them failed.

15 Un kā viss tas labums pār jums nācis, ko Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, uz jums runājis: tā Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, uz jums liks nākt visam tam ļaunumam, ko Viņš runājis, tiekams Viņš jūs būs izdeldējis no šīs labās zemes virsas, ko Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, jums devis,

And it shall come to pass, that as all the good things are come upon us which the Lord God will bring upon you all the evil things, until he shall have destroyed you from off this good land, which the Lord has given you,

16 Kad jūs Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, derību pārkāpjat, ko Viņš jums ir devis, un ejat un kalpojat citiem dieviem un metaties zemē priekš viņiem, tad Tā Kunga bardzība pret jums iedegsies un jūs piepeši izdeldēs no tās labās zemes virsas, ko Viņš jums devis.

when you transgress the covenant of the Lord our God, which he has charged us, and go and serve other gods, and bow down to them.
