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.
And an Angel of the Lord went up from Gilgal to the Place of Weeping, and he said: “I led you away from Egypt, and I led you into the land, about which I swore to your fathers. And I promised that I would not nullify my covenant with you, even forever:
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?
but only if you would not form a pact with the inhabitants of this land. Instead, you should overturn their altars. Yet you were not willing to listen to my voice. Why have you done this?
3 Tāpēc Es arī esmu sacījis: Es tos neizdzīšu jūsu priekšā, bet tie jums būs par tīkliem, un viņu dievi par slazda valgiem.
For this reason, I am not willing to destroy them before your face, so that you may have enemies, and so that their gods may be your ruin.”
4 Un kad Tā Kunga eņģelis šos vārdus bija runājis uz visiem Israēla bērniem, tad tie ļaudis pacēla savu balsi un raudāja.
And when the Angel of the Lord spoke these words to all the sons of Israel, they lifted up their voice, and they wept.
5 Un tie nosauca tās vietas vārdu Boķim (raudātāji), un upurēja tur Tam Kungam.
And the name of that place was called, the Place of Weeping, or the Place of Tears. And they immolated victims to the Lord in that place.
6 Jo kad Jozuas tos ļaudis bija atlaidis, tad Israēla bērni bija nogājuši ikviens uz savu īpašumu, ieņemt to zemi.
Then Joshua dismissed the people, and the sons of Israel went away, each one to his own possession, so that they might obtain it.
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 they served the Lord, during all his days, and during all the days of the elders, who lived for a long time after him, and who knew all the works 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,
Then Joshua, the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died, being one hundred and ten years old.
9 Tad tie viņu apraka viņa robežās TimnatEresā uz Efraīma kalniem, no Gaāša kalna pret ziemeļiem.
And they buried him in the parts of his possession at Timnath-Serah, on Mount Ephraim, before the northern side 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 that entire generation was gathered to their fathers. And there rose up others, who had not known the Lord and the works that he had done for Israel.
11 Tad Israēla bērni darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika, un kalpoja Baāliem.
And the sons of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord, and they served 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 abandoned the Lord, the God of their fathers, who had led them away from the land of Egypt. And they followed foreign gods and the gods of the peoples who were living around them, and they adored them. And they provoked the Lord to wrath,
13 Jo tie atstāja To Kungu un kalpoja Baālam un Astartēm.
forsaking him, and serving Baal and Ashtaroth.
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 Lord, having become angry against Israel, delivered them into the hands of plunderers, who seized them and sold them to the enemies that were living on all sides. Neither were they able to withstand their adversaries.
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.
Instead, wherever they wanted to go, the hand of the Lord was upon them, just as he said and just as he swore to them. And they were greatly afflicted.
16 Tad Tas Kungs iecēla soģus, kas tos izglāba no viņu laupītāju rokas.
And the Lord raised up judges, who would free them from the hands of their oppressors. But they were not willing to listen 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.
Fornicating with foreign gods and adoring them, they quickly deserted the way along which their fathers had advanced. And having heard the commandments of the Lord, they did all things to the contrary.
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 while the Lord was raising up the judges, in their days, he was moved to mercy, and he listened to the groaning of the afflicted, and he freed them from the slaughter of their oppressors.
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 after a judge had died, they turned back, and they were doing much worse things than their fathers had done, following strange gods, serving them, and adoring them. They did not abandon their pursuits and their very stubborn way, by which they were accustomed to walk.
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 fury of the Lord was enraged against Israel, and he said: “For this people has made void my covenant, which I had formed with their fathers, and they have despised listening to my voice.
21 Tad Es arī viņu priekšā neizdzīšu neviena no tiem pagāniem, ko Jozuas atstājis, kad viņš nomira,
And so, I will not destroy the nations that Joshua left behind when he died,
22 Lai Es Israēli caur tiem kārdināju, vai viņi Tā Kunga ceļu sargās, staigādami pa to, tā kā viņu tēvi ir sargājušies, vai ne?
so that, by them, I may test Israel, as to whether or not they will keep the way of the Lord, and walk in it, just as their fathers kept it.”
23 Tā Tas Kungs atstāja šos pagānus, tos tik drīz neizdzīdams, un tos nenodeva Jozuas rokā.
Therefore, the Lord left all these nations, and he was not willing to quickly overthrow them, nor did he deliver them into the hands of Joshua.
