Jozuas 24
1 Un Jozuas sapulcināja visas Israēla ciltis Šehemē un sasauca Israēla vecajus un viņu virsniekus un viņu soģus un viņu priekšniekus, un tie atnāca Dieva priekšā.
Joshua gathered all the tribes of Israel to Shechem, and called for the elders of Israel, for their heads, for their judges, and for their officers; and they presented themselves before God.
2 Tad Jozuas sacīja uz visiem tiem ļaudīm: tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs: viņpus upes jūsu tēvi vecos laikos ir dzīvojuši, Tārus, Ābrahāma un Nahora tēvs, un ir kalpojuši citiem dieviem.
Joshua said to all the people, “The LORD, the God of Israel, says, ‘Your fathers lived of old time beyond the River, even Terah, the father of Abraham, and the father of Nahor. They served other gods.
3 Tad Es ņēmu jūsu tēvu Ābrahāmu no viņas upes puses un tam liku staigāt caur visu Kanaāna zemi, un Es vairoju arī viņa dzimumu un devu viņam Īzaku.
I took your father Abraham from beyond the River, and led him throughout all the land of Canaan, and multiplied his offspring, and gave him Isaac.
4 Un Īzakam Es devu Jēkabu un Ēsavu, un Ēsavam Es devu Seīra kalnus par daļu, bet Jēkabs un viņa bērni nogāja uz Ēģiptes zemi.
I gave to Isaac Jacob and Esau: and I gave to Esau Mount Seir, to possess it. Jacob and his children went down into Egypt.
5 Tad Es sūtīju Mozu un Āronu, un mocīju Ēģiptes zemi, tā kā Es viņas vidū esmu darījis, un pēc tam Es jūs izvedu.
“‘I sent Moses and Aaron, and I plagued Egypt, according to that which I did among them: and afterward I brought you out.
6 Kad Es jūsu tēvus no Ēģiptes zemes biju izvedis, tad jūs nācāt pie jūras, un ēģiptieši jūsu tēviem dzinās pakaļ ar ratiem un ar jātniekiem līdz niedru jūrai.
I brought your fathers out of Egypt: and you came to the sea. The Egyptians pursued your fathers with chariots and with horsemen to the Red Sea.
7 Tad tie brēca uz To Kungu, un Viņš lika tumsību starp jums un ēģiptiešiem, un Viņš lika jūrai pār tiem nākt un tos apklāja, un jūsu acis redzējušas, ko Es Ēģiptes zemē esmu darījis. Pēc tam jūs ilgu laiku esat dzīvojuši tuksnesī.
When they cried out to the LORD, he put darkness between you and the Egyptians, and brought the sea on them, and covered them; and your eyes saw what I did in Egypt. You lived in the wilderness many days.
8 Un Es jūs vedu Amoriešu zemē, kas viņpus Jardānes dzīvoja: tie pret jums karoja, bet Es tos nodevu jūsu rokā, un jūs iemantojāt viņu zemi, un Es tos izdeldēju jūsu priekšā.
“‘I brought you into the land of the Amorites, that lived beyond the Jordan. They fought with you, and I gave them into your hand. You possessed their land, and I destroyed them from before you.
9 Tad Balaks, Cipora dēls, Moabiešu ķēniņš, cēlās un karoja pret Israēli; un viņš nosūtīja un lika aicināt Bileāmu, Beora dēlu, jūs nolādēt.
Then Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, arose and fought against Israel. He sent and called Balaam the son of Beor to curse you,
10 Bet Es Bileāmu negribēju klausīt, un viņš svētīdams jūs svētīja, un Es jūs izglābu no viņa rokas.
but I would not listen to Balaam; therefore he blessed you still. So I delivered you out of his hand.
11 Un jūs cēlāties pār Jardāni un nācāt uz Jēriku; tad Jērikus iedzīvotāji pret jums karoja, Amorieši, Ferezieši un Kanaānieši un Hetieši un Ģirgozieši un Hivieši un Jebusieši, bet Es tos nodevu jūsu rokās.
“‘You went over the Jordan, and came to Jericho. The men of Jericho fought against you, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Girgashite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite; and I delivered them into your hand.
12 Un Es sūtīju jūsu priekšā dundurus, tie tos priekš jums izdzina, kā arī tos divus Amoriešu ķēniņus, ne caur tavu zobenu, ne caur tavu stopu.
I sent the hornet before you, which drove them out from before you, even the two kings of the Amorites; not with your sword, nor with your bow.
13 Un Es jums devu zemi, ko tu neesi apkopis, un pilsētas, ko jūs neesat uzcēluši, ka tur dzīvojat, vīna dārzus un eļļas kokus, ko jūs neesat dēstījuši, ka no tiem ēdat.
I gave you a land on which you had not labored, and cities which you did not build, and you live in them. You eat of vineyards and olive groves which you did not plant.’
14 Un nu bīstaties To Kungu un kalpojiet Viņam skaidri un taisni, un atmetiet tos dievus, kam jūsu tēvi viņpus upes un Ēģiptes zemē ir kalpojuši, un kalpojiet Tam Kungam.
“Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in truth. Put away the gods which your fathers served beyond the River, in Egypt; and serve the LORD.
15 Bet ja tas jums nepatiks, Tam Kungam kalpot, tad izvēlaties sev šodien, kam jūs gribat kalpot, vai tiem dieviem, kam jūsu tēvi kalpojuši viņpus upes, vai tiem Amoriešu dieviem, kuru zemē jūs dzīvojat. Bet es un mans nams, mēs kalposim Tam Kungam.
If it seems evil to you to serve the LORD, choose today whom you will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell; but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”
16 Tad tie ļaudis atbildēja un sacīja: lai tas ir tālu no mums, To Kungu atstāt un kalpot citiem dieviem.
The people answered, “Far be it from us that we should forsake the LORD, to serve other gods;
17 Jo Tas Kungs ir mūsu Dievs; Tas mūs un mūsu tēvus izvedis no Ēģiptes zemes, no tā vergu nama, Tas priekš mums šās lielās zīmes darījis un mūs pasargājis uz visiem ceļiem, kur esam gājuši, un starp visiem ļaudīm, caur kuru vidu esam staigājuši.
for it is the LORD our God who brought us and our fathers up out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage, and who did those great signs in our sight, and preserved us in all the way in which we went, and among all the peoples through the middle of whom we passed.
18 Un Tas Kungs mūsu priekšā izdzinis visus tos ļaudis un tos Amoriešus, šās zemes iedzīvotājus, tāpēc mēs kalposim Tam Kungam, jo Tas ir mūsu Dievs.
The LORD drove out from before us all the peoples, even the Amorites who lived in the land. Therefore we also will serve the LORD; for he is our God.”
19 Tad Jozuas sacīja uz tiem ļaudīm: jūs nevarēsiet Tam Kungam kalpot, jo Tas Kungs ir svēts Dievs, Viņš ir stiprs Dievs, dusmotājs, Viņš nepiedos jūsu pārkāpumus, nedz jūsu grēkus.
Joshua said to the people, “You cannot serve the LORD, for he is a holy God. He is a jealous God. He will not forgive your disobedience nor your sins.
20 Kad jūs no Tā Kunga atstāsities un kalposiet svešiem dieviem, tad Viņš atstāsies un jums darīs ļaunu, un jums liks bojā iet, pēc tam, kad Viņš jums labu darījis.
If you forsake the LORD, and serve foreign gods, then he will turn and do you evil, and consume you, after he has done you good.”
21 Tad tie ļaudis sacīja uz Jozua: nē, bet mēs kalposim Tam Kungam.
The people said to Joshua, “No, but we will serve the LORD.”
22 Tad Jozuas sacīja uz tiem ļaudīm: jūs esat liecinieki sev pašiem, ka jūs To Kungu esat izvēlējušies, Viņam kalpot. Un tie sacīja: mēs esam liecinieki.
Joshua said to the people, “You are witnesses against yourselves that you have chosen the LORD yourselves, to serve him.” They said, “We are witnesses.”
23 Un nu atmetiet tos svešos dievus, kas jūsu starpā, un griežat savas sirdis uz To Kungu, Israēla Dievu.
“Now therefore put away the foreign gods which are among you, and incline your heart to the LORD, the God of Israel.”
24 Un tie ļaudis sacīja uz Jozua: mēs kalposim Tam Kungam, mūsu Dievam, un klausīsim Viņa balsi.
The people said to Joshua, “We will serve the LORD our God, and we will listen to his voice.”
25 Tā Jozuas tai dienā darīja derību ar tiem ļaudīm, un tiem iecēla likumus un tiesas Šehemē.
So Joshua made a covenant with the people that day, and made for them a statute and an ordinance in Shechem.
26 Un Jozuas rakstīja šos vārdus Dieva bauslības grāmatā un ņēma lielu akmeni un to tur uzcēla apakš ozola pie Tā Kunga svētās vietas.
Joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of God; and he took a great stone, and set it up there under the oak that was by the sanctuary of the LORD.
27 Un Jozuas sacīja uz visiem ļaudīm: redzi, šis akmens mums būs par liecību; jo tas ir dzirdējis visus Tā Kunga vārdus, ko Viņš ar mums runājis, - tas būs jums par liecību, ka jūs savam Dievam nemelojat.
Joshua said to all the people, “Behold, this stone shall be a witness against us, for it has heard all the LORD’s words which he spoke to us. It shall be therefore a witness against you, lest you deny your God.”
28 Tā Jozuas tos ļaudis atlaida, ikvienu savā īpašumā.
So Joshua sent the people away, each to his own inheritance.
29 Un notikās pēc šīm lietām, tad Jozuas, Nuna dēls, Tā Kunga kalps, nomira, simts un desmit gadus vecs būdams.
After these things, Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died, being one hundred ten years old.
30 Un tie viņu apraka viņa īpašuma robežās, Timnat-Zerā, kas ir Efraīma kalnos, no Gaāša kalna pret ziemeļiem.
They buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnathserah, which is in the hill country of Ephraim, on the north of the mountain of Gaash.
31 Un Israēls kalpoja Tam Kungam, kamēr Jozuas dzīvoja un kamēr tie vecaji dzīvoja, kas ilgi pēc Jozuas dzīvoja un kas visus Tā Kunga darbus zināja, ko Viņš Israēlim bija darījis.
Israel served the LORD all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders who outlived Joshua, and had known all the work of the LORD, that he had worked for Israel.
32 Un tie apraka arīdzan Jāzepa kaulus, ko Israēla bērni no Ēģiptes zemes bija izveduši, Šehemē, tai tīruma gabalā, ko Jēkabs no Hamora, Šehema tēva, bērniem bija pircis par simts sudraba gabaliem; jo tas Jāzepa bērniem bija ticis par daļu.
They buried the bones of Joseph, which the children of Israel brought up out of Egypt, in Shechem, in the parcel of ground which Jacob bought from the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem for a hundred pieces of silver. They became the inheritance of the children of Joseph.
33 Un Eleazars, Ārona dēls, nomira, un viņu apraka Ģibejā, viņa dēla Pinehasa pilsētā, kas viņam bija dota Efraīma kalnos.
Eleazar the son of Aaron died. They buried him in the hill of Phinehas his son, which was given him in the hill country of Ephraim.
