Jozuas 9
1 Un kad to dzirdēja visi ķēniņi, kas viņpus Jardānes bija, kalnos un ielejās un gar visu lielās jūras malu, Lībanum pretī, Hetieši un Amorieši, Ferezieši, Hivieši un Jebusieši,
And it came to pass when all the kings who were on this side the Jordan, in the hill-country, and in the lowland, and along all the coast of the great sea as far as opposite to Lebanon, the Hittite, and the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, heard [of it],
2 Tad tie sapulcējās visi kopā, kauties ar Jozua un ar Israēli.
that they assembled together, to fight with Joshua and with Israel, with one accord.
3 Kad nu Gibeonas iedzīvotāji dzirdēja, ko Jozuas bija darījis ar Jēriku un ar Aju, tad tie arīdzan darīja viltu
And when the inhabitants of Gibeon heard what Joshua had done to Jericho and to Ai,
4 Un nogāja un likās vēstneši ejoši un ņēma vecus maisus uz saviem ēzeļiem,
then they also acted with craft, and they went prepared as on a journey, and took old sacks upon their asses, and wine-flasks, old and rent and tied up;
5 Un vecus saplīsušus un lāpītus ādas vīna traukus, arī vecas un lāpītas kurpes savās kājās, un tiem bija arī vecas drēbes mugurā, un visa viņu ceļamaize bija sakaltusi un sapelējusi.
and old and patched sandals upon their feet, and old garments upon them; and all the bread of their provision was dry [and] mouldy.
6 Un tie gāja pie Jozuas Gilgalas lēģerī un sacīja uz to un uz Israēla vīriem: mēs no tālas zemes esam nākuši; tad dariet nu ar mums derību.
And they went to Joshua unto the camp at Gilgal, and said to him, and to the men of Israel, From a far country are we come; and now make a covenant with us.
7 Tad Israēla vīri sacīja uz to Hivieti: varbūt, ka tu dzīvo mūsu vidū, kā tad mēs ar tevi varam darīt derību?
And the men of Israel said to the Hivite, Perhaps thou dwellest in the midst of us, and how should I make a covenant with thee?
8 Tad tie sacīja uz Jozua: mēs esam tavi kalpi. Tad Jozuas uz tiem sacīja: kas jūs esat un no kurienes jūs nākat?
And they said unto Joshua, We are thy servants. And Joshua said to them, Who are ye? and from whence come ye?
9 Tie uz viņu sacīja: tavi kalpi nākuši no varen tālas zemes, Tā Kunga, tava Dieva, vārda dēļ; jo mēs esam dzirdējuši Viņa slavu un visu, ko Viņš darījis Ēģiptes zemē.
And they said to him, From a very far country are thy servants come, because of the name of Jehovah thy God; for we have heard the fame of him, and all that he did in Egypt,
10 Un visu, ko Viņš darījis tiem diviem Amoriešu ķēniņiem, kas viņpus Jardānes bija, Sihonam, Hešbonas ķēniņam, un Ogam, Basanas ķēniņam, kas Astarotā dzīvoja.
and all that he did to the two kings of the Amorites that were beyond Jordan, to Sihon the king of Heshbon, and to Og the king of Bashan, who was at Ashtaroth.
11 Tāpēc mūsu vecaji un visi, kas mūsu zemē dzīvo, uz mums runāja un sacīja: ņemiet savās rokās ceļamaizi un ejat viņiem pretī un sakāt uz tiem: mēs esam jūsu kalpi; un nu dariet ar mums derību.
And our elders and all the inhabitants of our country spoke to us, saying, Take victuals in your hand for the way, and go to meet them, and say to them, We are your servants, and now make a covenant with us.
12 Šo savu maizi mēs jaunu no savām mājām uz ceļu esam paņēmuši līdz, tai dienā, kad mēs izgājām pie jums nākt, bet redzi, nu tā sakaltusi un sapelējusi.
This our bread we took warm for our provision out of our houses on the day we came forth to go unto you; and now, behold, it is dry, and is become mouldy.
13 Un šie ādas vīna trauki, ko mēs pildījām, bija jauni, bet redzi, tie ir saplīsuši un šīs mūsu drēbes un mūsu kurpes ir vecas palikušas no tā varen tālā ceļa.
And these flasks of wine which we filled new, behold, they are rent; and these our garments and our sandals are become old by reason of the very long journey.
14 Tad tie vīri ņēma no viņu ceļamaizes un nevaicāja Tā Kunga muti.
And the men took of their victuals, but they did not inquire at the mouth of Jehovah.
15 Un Jozuas derēja mieru ar tiem un darīja derību ar tiem, tos atstāt dzīvus, un tie draudzes virsnieki tiem zvērēja.
And Joshua made peace with them, and made a covenant with them, to let them live; and the princes of the assembly swore unto them.
16 Un pēc trim dienām, kad tie derību ar tiem bija darījuši, tad tie dzirdēja, viņus no tuvienes esam un dzīvojam viņu vidū.
And it came to pass at the end of three days after they had made a covenant with them, that they heard that they were their neighbours, and that they dwelt in their midst.
17 Jo kad Israēla bērni cēlās, tad tie nāca trešā dienā pie viņu pilsētām. Bet viņu pilsētas bija Gibeona, Kavira un Beērote un Kiriat-Jearima.
And the children of Israel journeyed, and came to their cities on the third day; and their cities were Gibeon, and Chephirah, and Beeroth, and Kirjath-jearim.
18 Un Israēla bērni tos nekāva, tāpēc ka draudzes virsnieki tiem bija zvērējuši pie Tā Kunga, Israēla Dieva; tāpēc visa draudze kurnēja pret tiem virsniekiem.
And the children of Israel did not smite them, because the princes of the assembly had sworn unto them by Jehovah the God of Israel. Then all the assembly murmured against the princes.
19 Tad visi tie virsnieki uz visu draudzi sacīja: mēs pie Tā Kunga, Israēla Dieva, tiem esam zvērējuši, tāpēc mēs tos nu nevaram aizskart.
And all the princes said to all the assembly, We have sworn unto them by Jehovah the God of Israel, and now we may not touch them.
20 Bet mēs tiem darīsim tā: pametīsim tos dzīvus, ka nekāda dusmība pār mums nenāk tā zvēresta dēļ, ko mēs tiem esam zvērējuši.
This we will do to them, and let them live, lest wrath come upon us, because of the oath which we swore unto them.
21 Tad tie virsnieki uz tiem sacīja: lai paliek dzīvi; un tie bija malkas cirtēji un ūdens smēlēji visai draudzei, kā tie virsnieki tiem bija runājuši.
And the princes said to them, Let them live. And they were hewers of wood and drawers of water for all the assembly; as the princes had said to them.
22 Un Jozuas tos aicināja un uz tiem runāja sacīdams: kāpēc jūs mūs esat pievīluši sacīdami, mēs esam ļoti tālu no jums, - un jūs tomēr mūsu vidū dzīvojat?
And Joshua called for them, and he spoke to them, saying, Why have ye deceived us, saying, We are very far from you; whereas ye dwell in our midst?
23 Nu tad esat nolādēti, ka no jums netrūkst kalpu un malkas cirtēju un ūdens smēlēju priekš mūsu Dieva nama.
And now ye are cursed, and ye shall never cease to be bondmen, and hewers of wood, and drawers of water for the house of my God.
24 Tie atbildēja Jozuam un sacīja: taviem kalpiem tapa stāstīts, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, Mozum Savam kalpam, ir pavēlējis, ka Viņš jums visu to zemi grib dot, un visus tos, kas tai zemē dzīvo, no jūsu priekšas izdeldēt, tad mēs savas dzīvības dēļ ļoti bijāmies no jums un tā darījām.
And they answered Joshua and said, Because it was certainly told thy servants how that Jehovah thy God commanded his servant Moses to give you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you; and we feared greatly for our lives because of you, and did this thing.
25 Un nu redzi, mēs esam tavā rokā, dari mums, tā kā darīt tavās acīs rādās labi un taisni.
And now behold, we are in thy hand: as it is good and right in thine eyes to do to us, do.
26 Tad viņš tiem tā darīja un tos izglāba no Israēla bērnu rokas, ka tie tos nenokāva.
And he did so to them, and delivered them out of the hand of the children of Israel, and they did not slay them.
27 Un Jozuas tai dienā tos nodeva draudzei par malkas cirtējiem un ūdens smēlējiem un priekš Tā Kunga altāra līdz šai dienai tai vietā, ko Viņš izredzētu.
And Joshua made them that day hewers of wood and drawers of water for the assembly, and for the altar of Jehovah, to this day, in the place which he should choose.
