< Sog̒u 13 >
1 Un Israēla bērni darīja joprojām, kas Tam Kungam nepatika; tad Tas Kungs tos nodeva Fīlistu rokā četrdesmit gadus.
The people of Israel again did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh, and he gave them into the hand of the Philistines for forty years.
2 Un tur bija viens vīrs no Careas, no Dana cilts, un viņa vārds bija Manoūs, un viņa sieva bija neauglīga un nedzemdēja.
There was a man from Zorah, of the clan of the Danites, whose name was Manoah. His wife was not able to become pregnant and so she had not given birth.
3 Un Tā Kunga eņģelis parādījās tai sievai un uz to sacīja: redzi, tu esi neauglīga un neesi dzemdējusi, bet tu tapsi grūta un dzemdēsi dēlu.
The angel of Yahweh appeared to the woman and said to her, “See now, you have been unable to become pregnant, and you have not given birth, but you will become pregnant and you will give birth to a son.
4 Tad nu sargies un nedzer vīna nedz stipra dzēriena un neēd nekā, kas nešķīsts.
Now be careful not to drink wine or strong drink, and do not eat anything unclean.
5 Jo redzi, tu tapsi grūta un dzemdēsi dēlu, kam uz galvu nebūs nākt nekādam dzenamam nazim, jo tas puisis būs Dievam svētīts (nazīrs) no mātes miesām, un viņš sāks Israēli izpestīt no Fīlistu rokas.
Look, you will become pregnant and give birth to a son. No razor will be used upon his head, for the child will be a Nazirite to God from the womb, and he will begin to deliver Israel from the hand of the Philistines.”
6 Tad tā sieva nāca un runāja uz savu vīru un sacīja: viens Dieva vīrs pie manis atnāca; viņa ģīmis bija kā Dieva eņģeļa ģīmis, ļoti bijājams, un es viņu nevaicāju, no kurienes tas esot, un viņš man arī savu vārdu neteica.
Then the woman came and told her husband, “A man of God came to me, and his appearance was like that of an angel of God, very terrible. I did not ask him where he came from, and he did not tell me his name.
7 Bet viņš uz mani sacīja: redzi, tu tapsi grūta un dzemdēsi dēlu, un nu nedzer vīna nedz stipra dzēriena, nedz ēd ko, kas nešķīsts, jo tas puisis būs Dievam svētīts no mātes miesām līdz pat savai nāves dienai.
He said to me, 'Look! You will become pregnant, and you will give birth to a son. So then drink no wine or strong drink, and do not eat any food that the law declares to be unclean, because the child will be a Nazirite to God from the time he is in your womb until the day of his death.'”
8 Tad Manoūs pielūdza To Kungu un sacīja: Ak Kungs, lai jel tas Dieva vīrs, ko Tu esi sūtījis, atkal pie mums atnāk un mums māca, ko lai ar to bērnu darām, kas piedzims.
Then Manoah prayed to Yahweh and said, “Oh, Lord, please let the man of God you sent come again to us so that he may teach us what we are to do for the child who soon will be born.”
9 Un Dievs paklausīja Manoūs balsi, un tas Dieva eņģelis nāca atkal pie tās sievas; un viņa sēdēja tīrumā, bet Manoūs, viņas vīrs, nebija pie viņas.
God listened to the voice of Manoah, and the angel of God came to the woman again when she was sitting in the field. But Manoah her husband was not with her.
10 Tad tā sieva steidzās un skrēja un to pasacīja savam vīram, un uz to sacīja: redzi, tas vīrs man parādījies, kas tai dienā pie manis nāca.
So the woman ran quickly and told her husband, “Look! The man has appeared to me—the one who came to me the other day!”
11 Tad Manoūs cēlās un gāja savai sievai pakaļ un nāca pie tā vīra un uz to sacīja: vai tu esi tas vīrs, kas uz to sievu runājis? Un tas sacīja: es tas esmu.
Manoah got up and followed his wife. When he came to the man, he said, “Are you the man who spoke with my wife?” The man said, “I am.”
12 Tad Manoūs sacīja: kad nu tas notiks, ko tu sacījis, kāds tikums tad būs tam zēnam un kāds būs viņa darbs?
So Manoah said, “Now may your words come true. What will be the rules for the child, and what will be his work?”
13 Un Tā Kunga eņģelis sacīja uz Manoū: no visa, ko es uz to sievu esmu runājis, viņai būs sargāties.
The angel of Yahweh said to Manoah, “She must carefully do everything that I said to her.
14 Viņai nebūs ēst nekā, kas no vīna koka izaug, un viņai nebūs dzert ne vīna, ne stipra dzēriena, nedz ēst, kas nešķīsts, visu, ko es viņai esmu pavēlējis, viņai būs turēt.
She may not eat anything that comes from the vines, and do not let her drink wine or strong drink or eat anything unclean. She must obey everything I have commanded her to do.”
15 Tad Manoūs sacīja uz Tā Kunga eņģeli: lūdzams, pakavējies un mēs sataisīsim priekš tevis kazlēnu.
Manoah said to the angel of Yahweh, “Please stay for a while, to give us time to prepare a young goat for you.”
16 Tad Tā Kunga eņģelis sacīja uz Manoū; jebšu tu mani uzkavētu, tomēr es no tavas maizes neēdīšu, bet ja tu gribi dedzināmo upuri pienest, to tu Tam Kungam vari upurēt. Jo Manoūs nezināja, viņu esam Tā Kunga eņģeli.
The angel of Yahweh said to Manoah, “Even if I stay, I will not eat your food. But if you prepare a burnt offering, offer it to Yahweh.” (Manoah did not know that he was the angel of Yahweh.)
17 Un Manoūs sacīja uz Tā Kunga eņģeli: kā tavs vārds? Ka tevi varam godāt, kad notiks pēc tava vārda.
Manoah said to the angel of Yahweh, “What is your name, so we may honor you when your words come true?”
18 Tad Tā Kunga eņģelis uz viņu sacīja: kāpēc tu tā vaicā pēc Mana Vārda, kas taču ir brīnišķīgs?
The angel of Yahweh said to him, “Why do you ask my name? It is wonderful!”
19 Tad Manoūs ņēma kazlēnu un to ēdamo upuri, un to upurēja Tam Kungam uz tās klints; un viņš darīja brīnumu un Manoūs un viņa sieva skatījās.
So Manoah took the young goat with the grain offering and offered them on the rock to Yahweh. He did something marvelous while Manoah and his wife were watching.
20 Jo kad liesma no altāra virsas šāvās pret debesi, tad Tā Kunga eņģelis uzkāpa altāra liesmā. Un Manoūs un viņa sieva to redzēja un metās pie zemes uz saviem vaigiem.
When the flame went up from the altar toward the sky, the angel of Yahweh went up in the flame of the altar. Manoah and his wife saw this and lay facedown on the ground.
21 Un Tā Kunga eņģelis neparādījās vairs ne Manoūm, nedz viņa sievai. Tad Manoūs atzina, ka tas bija Tā Kunga eņģelis.
The angel of Yahweh did not appear again to Manoah or his wife. Then Manoah knew that he was the angel of Yahweh.
22 Un Manoūs sacīja uz savu sievu: mēs tiešām mirsim, jo mēs esam Dievu redzējuši.
Manoah said to his wife, “We are sure to die, because we have seen God!”
23 Bet viņa sieva uz viņu sacīja: kad Tas Kungs mūs gribētu nokaut, tad Viņš to dedzināmo upuri un ēdamo upuri nebūtu pieņēmis no mūsu rokām; Viņš arī visas šīs lietas mums nebūtu parādījis, nedz mums to licis dzirdēt šai laikā.
But his wife said to him, “If Yahweh wanted to kill us, he would not have received the burnt offering and the grain offering we gave him. He would not have shown us all these things, nor at this time would he have let us hear such things.”
24 Un tā sieva dzemdēja dēlu un nosauca viņa vārdu Simsons, un tas zēns uzauga, un Tas Kungs to svētīja.
Later the woman gave birth to a son, and called his name Samson. The child grew up and Yahweh blessed him.
25 Un Tā Kunga Gars viņu sāka skubināt Dana lēģerī starp Careu un Estaoli.
Yahweh's Spirit began to stir him in Mahaneh Dan, between Zorah and Eshtaol.
