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.
Yahweh said to Joshua, “Do not fear; do not be discouraged. Take with you all the people of war. Go up to Ai. See, I have given into your hand the king of Ai, his people, his city, 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.
You will do to Ai and her king as you have done to Jericho and her king, except that you will take the plunder and the cattle for yourselves. Set an ambush behind the city.”
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 got up and took all the men of war up to Ai. Then Joshua chose thirty thousand men—strong, courageous men—and he sent them out at night.
4 Un tiem pavēlēja sacīdams: raugāt, jums pret to pilsētu būs paslēpties aiz pilsētas; neturaties visai tālu no pilsētas un esiet visi gatavi.
He commanded them, “Look, you will lie in ambush against the city, behind it. Do not go very far from the city, but 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.
I and all the men with me will approach the city, and when they come out to attack us, we will run away from them just as before.
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.
They will come out after us until we have drawn them away from the city. They will say, 'They are running away from us as they did the last time.' So we will run away from 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 come up out of your place of hiding, and you will capture the city. Yahweh your God will give it into your hand.
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.
When you capture the city, you will set it on fire. You will do this when you obey the command given in the word of Yahweh. See, I have commanded you.”
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.
Joshua sent them out, and they went to the place of ambush, and they hid between Bethel and Ai to the west of Ai. But Joshua slept that night among the people.
10 Un Jozuas cēlās no rīta agri un pārlūkoja tos ļaudis, un viņš un Israēla vecaji cēlās tiem ļaudīm priekšā pret Aju.
Joshua got up early in the morning and got his soldiers ready, Joshua and the elders of Israel, and they attacked the people of 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.
All the fighting men who were with him went up and approached the city. They came near the city and camped on the north side of Ai. Now there was a valley between them and Ai.
12 Un viņš ņēma kādus piectūkstoš vīrus un tiem lika paslēpties starp Bēteli un Aju, pilsētai pret vakariem.
He took about five thousand men and set them in ambush on the west side of the city between Bethel 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.
They positioned all the soldiers, the main army on the north side of the city, and the rear guard on the west side of the city. Joshua spent that night in 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.
It came about when the king of Ai saw it, he and his army got up early and rushed out to attack Israel at a certain place that was overlooking the Jordan River valley. He did not know that an ambush was waiting to attack from behind the city.
15 Un Jozuas un viss Israēls izlikās kauti esoši viņu priekšā un bēga pa tuksneša ceļu.
Joshua and all Israel let themselves be defeated before them, and they fled toward the wilderness.
16 Tāpēc visi ļaudis, kas bija pilsētā, tapa sasaukti, ka tiem dzītos pakaļ.
All the people who were in the city were called together to go after them, and they went after Joshua and they were drawn away from the city.
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 left in Ai and Bethel who had not gone out to pursue Israel. They abandoned the city and left it open as they pursued 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.
Yahweh said to Joshua, “Point that spear in your hand toward Ai, for I will give Ai into your hand.” Joshua held out the spear that was in his hand toward the city.
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.
The soldiers hiding in ambush quickly rushed out of their place as he reached out with his hand. They ran and entered the city and captured it. They quickly set the city on fire.
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.
The men of Ai turned and looked back. They saw the smoke from the city rising into the sky, and they could not escape this way or that. For the Israelite soldiers who had fled into the wilderness now turned back to face those who were pursuing 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.
When Joshua and all Israel saw the ambush had captured the city with the smoke rising, they turned around and killed 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.
The other soldiers of Israel, those who had gone in the city, came out to attack them. So the men of Ai were caught between the armies of Israel, some on this side and some on that side. Israel attacked the men of Ai; none of them survived or escaped.
23 Bet Ajas ķēniņu tie sagūstīja dzīvu un veda pie Jozuas.
They kept the king of Ai, whom they captured alive, and they brought 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.
It came about when Israel had finished killing all the inhabitants of Ai in the field near the wilderness where they pursued them, and when all of them, to the very last one, had fallen by the edge of the sword, all Israel returned to Ai. They attacked it with the edge of the sword.
25 Un visi, kas tai dienā krita, vīri un sievas, bija divpadsmit tūkstoši; tie bija visi Ajas ļaudis.
All those who fell that day, both men and women, were twelve thousand, all the people of Ai.
26 Un Jozuas neatvilka savu roku, ko viņš ar šķēpu bija izstiepis, tiekams viņš nebija izdeldējis visus Ajas iedzīvotājus.
Joshua did not draw back his hand with which he had reached out while holding his spear, until he had completely destroyed all the people of Ai.
27 Tikai lopus un pilsētas laupījumu Israēls laupīja priekš sevis pēc Tā Kunga vārda, ko viņš Jozuam bija pavēlējis.
Israel took only the livestock and the plunder from the city for themselves, just as Yahweh had commanded Joshua.
28 Un Jozuas sadedzināja Aju un to padarīja par mūžīgu postažas vietu līdz šai dienai.
Joshua burned Ai and turned it into a heap of ruins forever. It is an abandoned place 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.
He hanged the king of Ai on a tree until evening. When the sun was going down, Joshua gave the command and they took the king's body down from the tree and threw it in front of the city gates. There they set up a great heap of stones on top of it. That heap remains there to this day.
30 Tad Jozuas uztaisīja altāri Tam Kungam, Israēla Dievam, Ebala kalnā,
Then Joshua built an altar to Yahweh, the God of Israel, on 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.
just as Moses the servant of Yahweh had commanded the people of Israel, as it was written in the Book of the Law of Moses: “An altar from uncut stones, on which no one has wielded an iron tool.” He offered on the altar burnt offerings to Yahweh, and they sacrificed peace offerings.
32 Un viņš rakstīja uz tiem akmeņiem norakstu no Mozus bauslības, ko šis bija rakstījis priekš Israēla bērniem.
There, in the presence of the people of Israel, he wrote on the stones a copy of the law of Moses.
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.
All Israel, their elders, officers, and their judges stood on both sides of the ark before the priests and Levites who carried the ark of the covenant of Yahweh—the foreigner as well as the native born—half of them stood in front of Mount Gerizim and the other half stood in front of Mount Ebal. They blessed the people of Israel, just as Moses the servant of Yahweh had commanded them at first.
34 Un pēc tam viņš izlasīja visus bauslības vārdus, svētību un lāstu, kā bauslības grāmatā stāv rakstīts.
Afterward, Joshua read all the words of the law, the blessings and the curses, just as they had been written 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.
There was not one word from all that Moses commanded that Joshua did not read in front of the assembly of Israel, including the women, the little children, and the foreigners who lived among them.
