Jozuas 8
1 Tad Tas Kungs sacīja uz Jozua: nebīsties un nebaiļojies! Ņem līdz visus karavīrus un celies pret Aju; redzi, Es esmu devis tavā rokā Ajas ķēniņu un viņa ļaudis, viņa pilsētu un viņa zemi.
Then the Lord said to Joshua, Have no fear and do not be troubled: take with you all the fighting-men and go up against Ai: for I have given into your hands the king of Ai and his people and his town and his land:
2 Un dari Ajai un viņas ķēniņam, kā tu esi darījis Jērikum un viņa ķēniņam, tikai lai jūs viņas laupījumu un viņas lopus priekš sev ņemat. Liec citiem paslēpties aiz pilsētas.
And you are to do to Ai and its king as you did to Jericho and its king: but their goods and their cattle you may take for yourselves: let a secret force be stationed to make a surprise attack on the town from the back.
3 Tad Jozuas un visi karavīri cēlās, iet uz Aju, un Jozuas izlasīja trīsdesmit tūkstošus spēcīgu un stipru vīru, un tos izsūtīja naktī,
So Joshua and the fighting-men got ready to go up against Ai; and Joshua took thirty thousand men of war, and sent them out by night.
4 Un tiem pavēlēja sacīdams: raugāt, jums pret to pilsētu būs paslēpties aiz pilsētas; neturaties visai tālu no pilsētas un esiet visi gatavi.
And he gave them their orders, saying, Go and take up your position secretly at the back of the town: do not go very far away, and let all of you be ready:
5 Es tad un visi tie ļaudis, kas pie manis, pieiesim pie pilsētas, un kad tie izies mums pretī tā kā pirmo reiz, tad mēs no viņiem bēgsim.
And I and all the people with me will come near the town, and when they come out against us as they did before, we will go in flight from them;
6 Lai tie tad nāk ārā mums pakaļ, kamēr mēs tos no pilsētas atšķiram, jo tie sacīs: viņi bēg mūsu priekšā, tā kā pirmo reiz, - un mēs bēgsim no viņiem.
And they will come out after us, till we have got them away from the town; for they will say, They have gone in flight from us as before; so we will go in flight before them;
7 Bet jūs ceļaties no tās vietas, kur bijāt slēpušies, un uzņemat to pilsētu, jo Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, to devis jūsu rokā.
Then you will get up from your secret position and take the town, for the Lord your God will give it up into your hands.
8 Un kad jūs to pilsētu esat uzņēmuši tad jums to pilsētu būs sadedzināt ar uguni, pēc Tā Kunga vārda jums būs darīt; redziet, es jums to esmu pavēlējis.
And when you have taken the town, put fire to it, as the Lord has said: see, I have given you your orders.
9 Tā Jozuas tos izsūtīja. Un tie gāja paslēpties un turējās starp Bēteli un Aju, Ajai pret vakariem, bet Jozuas palika to nakti pie tiem ļaudīm.
So Joshua sent them out: and they took up a secret position between Beth-el and Ai, on the west side of Ai: but Joshua kept with the people that night.
10 Un Jozuas cēlās no rīta agri un pārlūkoja tos ļaudis, un viņš un Israēla vecaji cēlās tiem ļaudīm priekšā pret Aju.
And early in the morning Joshua got up, and put the people in order, and he and the chiefs of Israel went up before the people to Ai.
11 Tā līdz arīdzan visi karavīri, kas pie tā bija, cēlās un piegāja un nāca pret to pilsētu un apmetās pret ziemeļa pusi no Ajas, un tur bija ieleja starp tiem un Aju.
And all the fighting-men who were with him went up and came near the town, and took up a position on the north side of Ai facing the town, with a valley between him and the town.
12 Un viņš ņēma kādus piectūkstoš vīrus un tiem lika paslēpties starp Bēteli un Aju, pilsētai pret vakariem.
And taking about five thousand men, he put them in position for a surprise attack on the west side of Ai, between Beth-el and Ai.
13 Un tie nostādīja tos ļaudis, visu to lēģeri, kas bija pret pilsētas ziemeļa pusi, un viņa pakaļējo pulku pret pilsētas vakara pusi, un Jozuas tanī naktī nogāja pašā ielejā.
So all the people were in their places, the army on the north side of the town and the secret force on the west; and that night Joshua went down into the valley.
14 Un kad Ajas ķēniņš to redzēja, tad tie pilsētas vīri steidzās un cēlās no rīta agri un izgāja Israēlim pretī uz kaušanos, viņš un visi viņa ļaudis, norunātā vietā klajuma priekšā, bet viņš nezināja, ka citi bija paslēpušies aiz pilsētas.
Now when the king of Ai saw it, he got up quickly and went out to war against Israel, he and all his people, to the slope going down to the valley; but he had no idea that a secret force was waiting at the back of the town.
15 Un Jozuas un viss Israēls izlikās kauti esoši viņu priekšā un bēga pa tuksneša ceļu.
Then Joshua and all Israel, acting as if they were overcome before them, went in flight by way of the waste land.
16 Tāpēc visi ļaudis, kas bija pilsētā, tapa sasaukti, ka tiem dzītos pakaļ.
And all the people in Ai came together to go after them; and they went after Joshua, moving away from the town.
17 Un tie dzinās Jozuam pakaļ un šķīrās nost no pilsētas, un tur neatlika neviena vīra Ajā un Bētelē, kas nebūtu izgājis Israēlim pakaļ, un tie pameta pilsētu atvērtu un dzinās Israēlim pakaļ.
There was not a man in Ai and Beth-el who did not go out after Israel; and the town was open and unwatched while they went after Israel.
18 Tad Tas Kungs sacīja uz Jozua: izstiep to šķēpu, kas tavā rokā, pret Aju, jo Es to došu tavā rokā. Tad Jozuas izstiepa to šķēpu, kas bija viņa rokā, pret to pilsētu.
And the Lord said to Joshua, Let your spear be stretched out against Ai; for I will give it into your hands. So Joshua took up his spear, stretching it out in the direction of the town.
19 Tad tie, kas bija paslēpušies, tūdaļ cēlās no savas vietas un skrēja, kad viņš savu roku izstiepa, un nāca pilsētā un to uzņēma un steidzās un iededzināja to pilsētu ar uguni.
Then the secret force came quickly from their place, and running forward when they saw his hand stretched out, went into the town and took it, and put fire to it straight away.
20 Kad nu Ajas ļaudis atpakaļ griezās, tad tie skatījās, un redzi, pilsētas dūmi cēlās pret debesi, un tie nespēja nekur bēgt, ne šurp, ne turp, jo tie ļaudis, kas uz tuksnesi bēga, griezās atpakaļ pret tiem, kas dzinās pakaļ.
Then the men of Ai, looking back, saw the smoke of the town going up to heaven, and were unable to go this way or that: and the people who had gone in flight to the waste land were turned back on those who were coming after them.
21 Jo kad Jozuas un viss Israēls redzēja, ka tie, kas bija paslēpušies, pilsētu bija uzņēmuši un ka pilsētas dūmi cēlās, tad viņi arīdzan griezās atpakaļ un kāva Ajas vīrus.
And when Joshua and all Israel saw that the town had been taken by the surprise attack, and that the smoke of the town had gone up, turning round they overcame the men of Ai.
22 Un tad arī tie no pilsētas nāca ārā viņiem pretī, tā ka tie bija vidū starp Israēli, šie no tejienes un viņi no turienes, un tie tos kāva, kamēr neviens no tiem neatlika nedz izbēga.
Then the other force came out of the town against them, so that they were being attacked on this side and on that: and Israel overcame them and let not one of them get away with his life.
23 Bet Ajas ķēniņu tie sagūstīja dzīvu un veda pie Jozuas.
But the king of Ai they made prisoner, and took him to Joshua.
24 Un kad Israēls bija nokāvis visus Ajas iedzīvotājus, laukā un tuksnesī, uz kurieni tie viņiem bija dzinušies pakaļ, un kad tie visi caur zobena asmeni bija krituši līdz pēdīgam, tad viss Israēls griezās atpakaļ uz Aju, un to sita ar zobena asmeni.
Then, after the destruction of all the people of Ai in the field and in the waste land where they went after them, and when all the people had been put to death without mercy, all Israel went back to Ai, and put to death all who were in it without mercy.
25 Un visi, kas tai dienā krita, vīri un sievas, bija divpadsmit tūkstoši; tie bija visi Ajas ļaudis.
On that day twelve thousand were put to death, men and women, all the people of Ai.
26 Un Jozuas neatvilka savu roku, ko viņš ar šķēpu bija izstiepis, tiekams viņš nebija izdeldējis visus Ajas iedzīvotājus.
For Joshua did not take back his hand with the outstretched spear till the destruction of the people of Ai was complete.
27 Tikai lopus un pilsētas laupījumu Israēls laupīja priekš sevis pēc Tā Kunga vārda, ko viņš Jozuam bija pavēlējis.
But the cattle and the goods from that town, Israel took for themselves, as the Lord had given orders to Joshua.
28 Un Jozuas sadedzināja Aju un to padarīja par mūžīgu postažas vietu līdz šai dienai.
So Joshua gave Ai to the flames, and made it a waste mass of stones for ever, as it is to this day.
29 Un Ajas ķēniņu viņš pakāra pie koka līdz vakaram, un kad saule nogāja, Jozuas pavēlēja, viņa miesas noņemt no koka, un tie viņu nometa pie pilsētas vārtiem un uzkrāva pār viņu lielu akmeņu kopu līdz šai dienai.
And he put the king of Ai to death, hanging him on a tree till evening: and when the sun went down, Joshua gave them orders to take his body down from the tree, and put it in the public place of the town, covering it with a great mass of stones, which is there to this day.
30 Tad Jozuas uztaisīja altāri Tam Kungam, Israēla Dievam, Ebala kalnā,
Then Joshua put up an altar to the Lord, the God of Israel, in Mount Ebal,
31 Tā kā Mozus, Tā Kunga kalps, Israēla bērniem bija pavēlējis, kā Mozus bauslības grāmatā stāv rakstīts, altāri no veseliem akmeņiem, kur dzelzs ierocis nebija pielikts, un uz tā tie upurēja Tam Kungam dedzināmos upurus un upurēja arī pateicības upurus.
In the way ordered by Moses, the servant of the Lord, as it is recorded in the book of the law of Moses, an altar of uncut stones, untouched by any iron instrument: and on it they made burned offerings and peace-offerings to the Lord.
32 Un viņš rakstīja uz tiem akmeņiem norakstu no Mozus bauslības, ko šis bija rakstījis priekš Israēla bērniem.
And he made there on the stones a copy of the law of Moses, writing it before the eyes of the children of Israel.
33 Un viss Israēls ar saviem vecajiem un virsniekiem un soģiem stāvēja abējos šķirsta sānos pretim tiem priesteriem un Levitiem, kas Tā Kunga derības šķirstu nesa, gan svešinieki, gan pašu ļaudis, viena puse pret Gerizim kalnu un otra puse pret Ebalkalnu, tā kā Mozus, Tā Kunga kalps, iepriekš bija pavēlējis, tos ļaudis svētīt.
And all Israel, those who were Israelites by birth, as well as the men from other lands living with them, and their responsible men and their overseers and judges, took their places round the ark, in front of the priests, the Levites, whose work it was to take up the ark of the Lord's agreement; half of them were stationed in front of Mount Gerizim and half in front of Mount Ebal, in agreement with the orders for the blessing of the children of Israel which Moses, the servant of the Lord, had given.
34 Un pēc tam viņš izlasīja visus bauslības vārdus, svētību un lāstu, kā bauslības grāmatā stāv rakstīts.
And after, he gave them all the words of the law, the blessing and the curse, as it is all recorded in the book of the law;
35 Tur nebija neviena vārda no visiem, cik Mozus bija pavēlējis, ko Jozuas nebūtu izlasījis priekš visas Israēla draudzes un tām sievām un tiem bērniņiem un tiem svešiniekiem, kas staigāja viņu vidū.
Reading to all the meeting of Israel, with the women and the children and the men from other lands who were living among them, every word of the orders which Moses had given.
