Sog̒u 3
1 Šie nu ir tie pagāni, ko Tas Kungs atstāja, ka Viņš caur tiem Israēli kārdinātu, kas nekā nezināja no Kanaāna kariem;
The following are the nations the Lord left and used to test all those Israelites who had not known what it was like to be part of any of the wars in Canaan.
2 Lai Israēla bērnu pēcnākamie zinātu un mācītos karu, tie, kas no tā vēl nekā nezināja.
(He did so to teach warfare to the later generations of Israel, particularly to those who had not previously experienced it.)
3 Pieci Fīlistu valdnieki un visi Kanaānieši un Sidonieši un Hivieši, kas dzīvoja Lībanus kalnos, un no BaālErmona kalna līdz Hamatai.
They are: the five rulers of the Philistines, all the Canaanites, the Sidonians, and the Hivites living in the mountains of Lebanon from Mount Baal-hermon to Lebo-hamath.
4 Šie tad bija, lai Israēls caur tiem tiktu kārdināts, ka taptu zināms, vai tie klausīs Tā Kunga baušļiem, ko Viņš viņu tēviem bija pavēlējis caur Mozu.
They were left there be to a test for the Israelites, to find out whether the Israelites would keep the Lord's commandments which he had given their forefathers through Moses.
5 Un Israēla bērni dzīvoja vidū starp Kanaāniešiem, Hetiešiem un Amoriešiem un Fereziešiem un Hiviešiem un Jebusiešiem.
They lived among the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.
6 Un tie sev ņēma viņu meitas par sievām un deva savas meitas viņu dēliem un kalpoja viņu dieviem,
The Israelites intermarried with them, marrying their daughters, giving their own daughters to their sons, and worshiped their gods.
7 Un Israēla bērni darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika, un aizmirsa To Kungu, savu Dievu, un kalpoja Baāliem un Astartēm.
The Israelites did what was evil in the Lord's sight. They ignored the Lord their God and worshiped the images of Baals and Asherahs.
8 Tad Tā Kunga bardzība iedegās pret Israēli un Viņš tos pārdeva Kuzan Rizataīma, Mezopotamijas ķēniņa, rokā, un Israēla bērni kalpoja Kuzan Rizataīmam astoņus gadus.
The Lord became angry with Israel, so he sold them to Cushan-Rishathaim, king of Aram Naharaim. The Israelites were subject to Cushan-Rishathaim for eight years.
9 Tad Israēla bērni brēca uz To Kungu, un Tas Kungs Israēla bērniem cēla pestītāju, kas tos izpestīja, Otniēli, Ķenasa, Kāleba jaunākā brāļa, dēlu.
But when the Israelites cried out to the Lord to help them, he provided someone to rescue them, Othniel, son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother, and he saved them.
10 Un Tā Kunga Gars bija uz viņu, un viņš bija par soģi Israēlim un izgāja karā, un Tas Kungs deva viņa rokā Kuzan Rizataīmu, Mezopotamijas ķēniņu, un viņa roka bija stipra pār Kuzan Rizataīmu.
The Spirit of the Lord came on him, and he became Israel's judge. He went to war with Cushan-Rishathaim, king of Aram, and the Lord handed the king over to Othniel, who was victorious.
11 Tad zemei bija miers četrdesmit gadus, un Otniēls, Ķenasa dēls, nomira.
As a result, the country was a peace for forty years until Othniel, son of Kenaz, died.
12 Bet Israēla bērni joprojām darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika. Tad Tas Kungs stiprināja Eglonu, Moaba ķēniņu, pret Israēli, tāpēc, ka tie darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika.
But once again the Israelites did what was evil in the Lord's sight, and because they did this the Lord gave power to Eglon, king of Moab, to conquer Israel.
13 Un viņš sapulcēja pie sevis Amona bērnus un Amaleku, un cēlās un kāva Israēli, un tie ieņēma to palmu pilsētu.
Eglon had the Ammonites and the Amalekite join him, and then attacked and defeated Israel, taking possession of the City of Palms.
14 Un Israēla bērni kalpoja Eglonam, Moaba ķēniņam, astoņpadsmit gadus.
The Israelites were subject to Eglon, king of Moab, for eighteen years.
15 Tad Israēla bērni brēca uz To Kungu, un Tas Kungs tiem cēla par pestītāju Eūdu, Ģerus dēlu, no Benjamina cilts; tas bija kreilis, un Israēla bērni caur viņu sūtīja dāvanu Eglonam, Moaba ķēniņam.
Again the Israelites cried out to the Lord to help them, and he provided someone to rescue them, Ehud, son of Gera the Benjamite, a left-handed man. The Israelites sent him to pay the tribute to Eglon, king of Moab.
16 Un Eūds taisīja sev abējās pusēs griezīgu zobenu, olekts garumā, un to apjoza apakš savām drēbēm pie savas labās ciskas.
Ehud had made for himself a cubit long double-edged sword, and he strapped it to his right thigh under his clothes.
17 Un viņš Eglonam, Moaba ķēniņam, nonesa dāvanas, un Eglons bija ļoti resns vīrs.
He came and presented the tribute to Eglon, king of Moab, who was a very fat man.
18 Un kad viņš to dāvanu bija nodevis, tad viņš tos ļaudis atlaida, kas to dāvanu bija nesuši.
Then after delivering the tribute he sent home those who had helped carry it.
19 Bet viņš griezās atpakaļ no tiem elku stabiem, kas bija Gilgalā un sacīja: man viens noslēpums tev jāsaka, ķēniņ. Un tas sacīja: klusu! Tad visi izgāja ārā, kas ap viņu stāvēja.
But when he reached the stone idols near Gilgal, he turned back. He went to see Eglon, and told him, “Your Majesty, I have a secret message for you.” The king told his attendants, “Silence!” and they all left.
20 Un Eūds pie viņa pienāca; bet viņš sēdēja kādā dzestrā kambarī, kas bija viņam vienam. Tad Eūds sacīja: man ir Dieva vārds uz tevi. Tad viņš cēlās no tā krēsla.
Ehud then went over to where Eglon was sitting alone in his cool upstairs room, and told him, “I have a message from God for you.” As the king got up from his seat,
21 Un Eūds izstiepa savu kreiso roku un ņēma to zobenu no savas labās ciskas un to viņam iedūra vēderā,
Ehud grabbed his sword with his left hand from his right thigh and drove it into Eglon's belly.
22 Ka gan asmens, gan spals iegāja, un tie tauki to asmeni apklāja, jo viņš to zobenu no viņa vēdera neizvilka, un tas izgāja pakaļā cauri.
The handle went in with the blade and the fat closed over it. So Ehud didn't pull the sword out, and the king defecated.
23 Tad Eūds izgāja ārā un aizslēdza tā kambara durvis aiz sevis un tās aizšāva.
Then Ehud closed and locked the doors, and escaped through the toilet.
24 Kad tas nu bija izgājis, tad viņa kalpi nāca, un redzēja, un lūk, kambara durvis bija aizslēgtas. Un tie sacīja: viņš gan savas kājas apklāj tai dzestrā kambarī.
After he had left, the servants came and saw that the doors of the room were locked. “He must be using the toilet,” they concluded.
25 Kad tie nu gaidīja tik ilgi, ka paši kaunējās, un redzi, viņš tā kambara durvis neatdarīja, tad viņi ņēma atslēgu un atslēdza, un redzi, viņu kungs gulēja pie zemes nomiris.
So they waited until they couldn't stand it any more, and since he still hadn't opened the doors of the room, they went and found the key and opened the doors. There was their lord, lying dead on the floor.
26 Un Eūds izmuka, kamēr tie gaidīja, jo viņš gāja gar tiem elku stabiem un aizmuka uz Seīratu.
While the servants delayed acting, Ehud escaped, passing the stone idols and on to Seirah.
27 Un kad viņš tur nonāca, tad viņš pūta trumetē uz Efraīma kalniem, un Israēla bērni nogāja ar viņu no tiem kalniem un viņš pats viņu priekšā.
When he got there, he blew a trumpet in the hill country of Ephraim, and the Israelites joined him. They went down from the hills, with Ehud leading them.
28 Un viņš uz tiem sacīja: steidzaties man pakaļ, jo Tas Kungs devis jūsu rokā jūsu ienaidniekus, tos Moabiešus. Un tie nogāja viņam pakaļ un uzņēma Jardānes pārejamo vietu, kas pret Moabu, un nevienu nelaida pāri.
He told them, “Follow me, for the Lord has handed Moab, your enemy, over to you.” So they followed him down and took control of the fords of the Jordan leading to Moab. They didn't let anyone cross.
29 Un tie kāva no Moabiešiem tanī laikā kādus desmit tūkstoš vīrus, visus brangus un visus stiprus, ka neviens neizspruka.
Then they attacked the Moabites and killed around 10,000 of their best and strongest fighting men. Not a single one escaped.
30 Tad Moabs tai dienā tapa pazemots apakš Israēla bērnu rokas, un zemei bija miers astoņdesmit gadus.
Moab was conquered that day and made subject to Israel, and the country was at peace for eighty years.
31 Un pēc viņa bija Zamgars, Anata dēls, tas kāva no Fīlistiem sešsimt vīrus ar vēršu dzenamo. Tā viņš arīdzan Israēli izpestīja.
After Ehud was Shamgar, son of Anath, who killed six hundred Philistines with an oxgoad. He also rescued Israel.
