Ceturtā Mozus 24
1 Kad nu Bileāms redzēja, ka Tam Kungam patika, Israēli svētīt, tad viņš vairs negāja pēc zīmēm, kā pirmo un otru reiz, bet grieza savu vaigu uz tuksnesi,
When Balaam saw that it pleased Yahweh to bless Israel, he did not go, as at the other times, to use sorcery. Instead, he looked toward the wilderness.
2 Un pacēla savas acis un redzēja Israēli, kas bija apmeties pēc savām ciltīm; un tas Dieva Gars nāca uz viņu.
He raised his eyes and saw that Israel was camped, each in their own tribe, and the Spirit of God came on him.
3 Un viņš sāka savu teikumu teikt un sacīja: Bileāms, Beora dēls runā.
He received this prophecy and said, “Balaam son of Beor is about to speak, the man whose eyes are wide open.
4 Tas vīrs, kam acis atvērtas, runā, tas Dieva vārdu klausītājs runā, kas redz Tā Visuvarenā parādīšanas, pie zemes meties atvērtām acīm:
He speaks and hears God's words. He sees a vision from the Almighty, Before whom he bows down with his eyes open.
5 Cik jaukas ir tavas teltis, Jēkab, tavi dzīvokļi, Israēl!
How beautiful are your tents, Jacob, the place where you live, Israel!
6 Kā upes ielejas, tā viņi izplešas, kā dārzi pie upēm, kā alvejas koki, ko Tas Kungs stādījis, kā ciedru koki pie ūdens!
Like valleys they spread out, like gardens by the riverside, like aloes planted by Yahweh, like cedars beside the waters.
7 Ūdens tek no viņa traukiem un viņa dzimumam ir ūdens papilnam, un viņa ķēniņš būs augstāks par Agagu, un viņa valsts augsti celta.
Water flows from their buckets, and their seed is well-watered. Their king is to be higher than Agag, and their kingdom will be honored.
8 Dievs viņu izvedis no Ēģiptes, viņam ir spēki kā sūbram, viņš norij pagānus, savus ienaidniekus, un satriec viņu kaulus, ar savām bultām viņš tos sašauj.
God brings him out of Egypt, with strength like a wild ox. He will eat up the nations who fight against him. He will break their bones to pieces. He will shoot them with his arrows.
9 Viņš ir apgulies kā lauva, kā lauvas māte - kas to traucēs? Kas tevi svētī, tas lai ir svētīts, un kas tevi nolād, tas lai ir nolādēts.
He crouches down like a lion, like a lioness. Who dares disturb him? May everyone who blesses him be blessed; may everyone who curses him be cursed.”
10 Tad Balaka bardzība iedegās pret Bileāmu un viņš sasita savas rokas kopā, un Balaks sacīja uz Bileāmu: es tevi esmu aicinājis, nolādēt manus ienaidniekus, bet redzi, tu tos nu trīs reiz svētīdams esi svētījis.
Balak's anger was kindled against Balaam and he struck his hands together in anger. Balak said to Balaam, “I called you to curse my enemies, but look, you have blessed them three times.
11 Un nu steidzies uz mājām, es domāju godādams tevi godāt, bet redzi, Tas Kungs tev to godu ir liedzis.
So leave me right now and go home. I said I would greatly reward you, but Yahweh has kept you from getting any reward.”
12 Tad Bileāms sacīja uz Balaku: vai es jau neteicu uz taviem vēstnešiem, ko tu pie manis esi sūtījis, sacīdams:
Then Balaam replied to Balak, “I said to the messengers that you sent to me,
13 Jebšu Balaks man dotu savu namu pilnu sudraba un zelta, tomēr es nevaru pārkāpt Tā Kunga vārdu, un darīt vai labu vai ļaunu pēc sava prāta. Ko Tas Kungs uz mani runās, to es runāšu.
'Even if Balak gave me his palace full of silver and gold, I could not go beyond Yahweh's word and anything bad or good, or anything at all that I might want to do. I can say only what Yahweh tells me to say.' Did I not say this to them?
14 Un nu redzi, es eju pie saviem ļaudīm; nāc, es tev stāstīšu, ko šie ļaudis darīs taviem ļaudīm nākamās dienās.
So now, look, I will go back to my people. But first let me warn you what this people will do to your people in the days ahead.”
15 Un viņš sāka teikt savu teikumu un sacīja: Bileāms, Beora dēls, runā,
Balaam began this prophecy. He said, “Balaam son of Beor speaks, The man whose eyes are wide open.
16 Tas vīrs, kam acis atvērtas, runā, tas Dieva vārdu klausītājs runā, kas atzīst Tā Visuaugstākā atzīšanu, kas redz Tā Visuvarenā parādīšanas, pie zemes meties atvērtām acīm:
This is a prophecy of someone who hears words from God, who has knowledge from the Most High, who has visions from the Almighty, Before whom he bows down with open eyes.
17 Es viņu redzu, bet ne tagad, es viņu ieraugu, bet ne tuvu klāt. Zvaigzne uzlēks no Jēkaba, un scepteris celsies no Israēla, tas satrieks Moaba robežas un izpostīs visus dumpja ļaudis.
I see him, but he is not here now. I look at him, but he is not near. A star will come out of Jacob, and a scepter will rise out of Israel. He will shatter Moab's leaders and destroy all the descendants of Seth.
18 Un Edoms paliek par īpašumu un Seīrs paliek par īpašumu, viņa ienaidnieki, bet Israēls pieņemas spēkā.
Then Edom will become a possession of Israel, and Seir will also become their possession, enemies of Israel, whom Israel will conquer with force.
19 Un no Jēkaba nāks tas valdītājs, un tas izpostīs, kas atlicies no tām pilsētām.
Out of Jacob a king will come who will have dominion, and he will destroy the survivors of their city.”
20 Un viņš redzēja Amaleku un sāka savu teikumu teikt un sacīja: Amaleks ir pagānu pirmais, bet viņa gals ir posts.
Then Balaam looked at Amalek and began his prophecy. He said, “Amalek was once the greatest of nations, but his final end will be destruction.”
21 Un viņš redzēja Keniešus un sāka savu teikumu teikt un sacīja: tavs dzīvoklis ir stiprs, un tu savu ligzdu esi taisījis uz klints.
Then Balaam looked toward the Kenites and began his prophecy. He said, “The place where you live is strong, and your nest is in the rocks.
22 Tomēr Kains taps sadedzināts. Cik ilgi būs, tad Asurs tevi vedīs cietumā.
Nevertheless you Kenites will be consumed by fire when Assyria carries you away captive.”
23 Un viņš sāka savu teikumu teikt un sacīja: Ak vai! Kas dzīvos, kad tas stiprais Dievs to darīs?
Then Balaam began his final prophecy. He said, “Woe! Who will survive when God does this?
24 Un lielas laivas no Ķitim spaidīs Asuru un spaidīs arī Ēberu, bet arī viņš pats tas spaidītājs ies bojā.
Ships will come from the coast of Kittim; they will attack Assyria and will conquer Eber, but they, too, will end in destruction.”
25 Tad Bileāms cēlās un aizgāja un griezās atpakaļ uz mājām uz savu vietu, un Balaks gāja arīdzan savu ceļu.
Then Balaam got up and left. He returned to his home, and Balak also went away.
