< Sog̒u 2 >
1 Un Tā Kunga eņģelis nāca no Gilgalas uz Boķimu un sacīja: Es jūs esmu izvedis no Ēģiptes un jūs ievedis tai zemē, ko jūsu tēviem esmu zvērējis, un sacījis: Es Savu derību ar jums negribu lauzt ne mūžam.
Now the angel of the Lord came up from Gilgal to Bochim. And he said, I took you out of Egypt, guiding you into the land which I gave by an oath to your fathers; and I said, My agreement with you will never be broken by me:
2 Bet jums nebūs derību darīt ar šīs zemes iedzīvotājiem, viņu altārus jums būs salauzt. Bet jūs neesat klausījuši Manai balsij; kam jūs tā esat darījuši?
And you are to make no agreement with the people of this land; you are to see that their altars are broken down: but you have not given ear to my voice: what have you done?
3 Tāpēc Es arī esmu sacījis: Es tos neizdzīšu jūsu priekšā, bet tie jums būs par tīkliem, un viņu dievi par slazda valgiem.
And so I have said, I will not send them out from before you; but they will be a danger to you, and their gods will be a cause of falling to you.
4 Un kad Tā Kunga eņģelis šos vārdus bija runājis uz visiem Israēla bērniem, tad tie ļaudis pacēla savu balsi un raudāja.
Now on hearing these words which the angel of the Lord said to all the children of Israel, the people gave themselves up to loud crying and weeping.
5 Un tie nosauca tās vietas vārdu Boķim (raudātāji), un upurēja tur Tam Kungam.
And they gave that place the name of Bochim, and made offerings there to the Lord.
6 Jo kad Jozuas tos ļaudis bija atlaidis, tad Israēla bērni bija nogājuši ikviens uz savu īpašumu, ieņemt to zemi.
And Joshua let the people go away, and the children of Israel went, every man to his heritage, to take the land for themselves.
7 Un tie ļaudis kalpoja Tam Kungam, kamēr Jozuas dzīvoja un kamēr tie vecaji dzīvoja, kas vēl ilgu laiku pēc Jozuas dzīvoja, kas bija redzējuši visus Tā Kunga lielos darbus, ko Viņš bija darījis pie Israēla bērniem.
And the people were true to the Lord all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the responsible men who were still living after the death of Joshua, and had seen all the great work of the Lord which he had done for Israel.
8 Bet kad Jozuas, Nuna dēls, Tā Kunga kalps, bija nomiris simts un desmit gadus vecs,
And death came to Joshua, the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, he being a hundred and ten years old.
9 Tad tie viņu apraka viņa robežās TimnatEresā uz Efraīma kalniem, no Gaāša kalna pret ziemeļiem.
And they put his body in the earth in the land of his heritage in Timnath-heres, in the hill-country of Ephraim to the north of Mount Gaash.
10 Kad nu arī viss tas dzimums bija aizgājis pie saviem tēviem, tad cēlās cits dzimums pēc viņiem, kas To Kungu nepazina, nedz tos darbus, ko Viņš bija darījis pie Israēla.
And in time death overtook all that generation; and another generation came after them, having no knowledge of the Lord or of the things which he had done for Israel.
11 Tad Israēla bērni darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika, un kalpoja Baāliem.
And the children of Israel did evil in the eyes of the Lord and became servants to the Baals;
12 Un atstāja To Kungu, savu tēvu Dievu, kas tos bija izvedis no Ēģiptes, un dzinās pakaļ citiem dieviem no to ļaužu dieviem, kas tiem bija visapkārt, un pielūdza tos un apkaitināja To Kungu.
And they gave up the Lord, the God of their fathers, who had taken them out of the land of Egypt, and went after other gods, the gods of the peoples round about them, worshipping them and moving the Lord to wrath.
13 Jo tie atstāja To Kungu un kalpoja Baālam un Astartēm.
And they gave up the Lord, and became the servants of Baal and the Astartes.
14 Tad Tā Kunga bardzība iedegās pret Israēli, un Viņš tos nodeva laupītājiem rokā, kas tos aplaupīja, un Viņš tos pārdeva viņu ienaidnieku rokā visapkārt, un tie vairs nevarēja pastāvēt savu ienaidnieku priekšā.
And the wrath of the Lord was burning against Israel, and he gave them up into the hands of those who violently took their property, and into the hands of their haters all round them, so that they were forced to give way before them.
15 Visur, kur tie izgāja, Tā Kunga roka bija pret tiem par sodu, kā Tas Kungs bija runājis un kā Tas Kungs tiem bija zvērējis, un tie tapa gauži spaidīti.
Wherever they went out, the hand of the Lord was against them for evil, as the Lord had taken his oath it would be; and things became very hard for them.
16 Tad Tas Kungs iecēla soģus, kas tos izglāba no viņu laupītāju rokas.
Then the Lord gave them judges, as their saviours from the hands of those who were cruel to them.
17 Bet tie arī neklausīja saviem soģiem, bet maukoja pakaļ citiem dieviem un tos pielūdza; ātri tie atstājās no tā ceļa, ko viņu tēvi bija gājuši, klausīt Tā Kunga baušļus; tā tie nedarīja.
But still they would not give ear to their judges, but went after other gods and gave them worship; quickly turning from the way in which their fathers had gone, keeping the orders of the Lord; but they did not do so.
18 Un kad Tas Kungs tiem iecēla soģus, tad Tas Kungs bija ar to soģi, un tos izglāba no viņu ienaidnieku rokas, kamēr tas soģis dzīvoja; to Tam Kungam bija žēl, ka viņi nopūtās par tiem, kas viņus spieda un spaidīja.
And whenever the Lord gave them judges, then the Lord was with the judge, and was their saviour from the hands of their haters all the days of the judge; for the Lord was moved by their cries of grief because of those who were cruel to them.
19 Bet kad tas soģis nomira, tad tie atkāpās un palika ļaunāki nekā viņu tēvi, dzīdamies pakaļ citiem dieviem, tiem kalpodami un tos pielūgdami; tie neatstājās no saviem darbiem, nedz no savas pārgalvības ceļa.
But whenever the judge was dead, they went back and did more evil than their fathers, going after other gods, to be their servants and their worshippers; giving up nothing of their sins and their hard-hearted ways.
20 Tad Tā Kunga bardzība iedegās pret Israēli, ka Viņš sacīja: tāpēc ka šī tauta Manu derību pārkāpusi, ko Es viņu tēviem pavēlēju, un nav klausījusi Manai balsij,
And the wrath of the Lord was burning against Israel, and he said, Because this nation has not been true to my agreement which I made with their fathers, and has not given ear to my voice;
21 Tad Es arī viņu priekšā neizdzīšu neviena no tiem pagāniem, ko Jozuas atstājis, kad viņš nomira,
From now on I will not go on driving out from before them any of the nations which at the death of Joshua were still living in this land;
22 Lai Es Israēli caur tiem kārdināju, vai viņi Tā Kunga ceļu sargās, staigādami pa to, tā kā viņu tēvi ir sargājušies, vai ne?
In order to put Israel to the test, and see if they will keep the way of the Lord, walking in it as their fathers did, or not.
23 Tā Tas Kungs atstāja šos pagānus, tos tik drīz neizdzīdams, un tos nenodeva Jozuas rokā.
So the Lord let those nations go on living in the land, not driving them out quickly, and did not give them up into the hands of Joshua.
