1 Самуел 6
1 Кивотул Домнулуй а фост шапте лунь ын цара филистенилор.
The people of Philistia kept God’s sacred chest in their area for seven months.
2 Ши филистений ау кемат пе преоць ши пе гичиторь ши ау зис: „Че сэ фачем ку кивотул Домнулуй? Арэтаци-не кум требуе сэ-л тримитем ынапой ла локул луй.”
Then they summoned their priests and their (diviners/men who practice rituals to find out what would happen in the future). They asked them, “What should we do with the sacred chest of Yahweh? Tell us how we should send it back to its own land.”
3 Ей ау рэспунс: „Дакэ тримитець ынапой кивотул Думнезеулуй луй Исраел, сэ ну-л тримитець ку мына гоалэ, чи адучець луй Думнезеу о жертфэ пентру винэ; атунч вэ вець виндека ши вець шти пентру че ну с-а ындепэртат мына Луй де песте вой.”
Those men replied, “Send with it an offering [to show Yahweh that you know that you are] guilty [for having captured the chest], in order that the plague will stop. If you do that, and then if you are healed, you will know that Yahweh is the one who caused you to experience the plague.”
4 Филистений ау зис: „Че жертфэ пентру винэ сэ-Й адучем?” Ей ау рэспунс: „Чинч умфлэтурь де аур ши чинч шоаречь де аур, дупэ нумэрул домниторилор филистенилор, кэч ачеяшь урӂие а фост песте вой тоць ши песте домниторий воштри.
The people of Philistia asked, “What kind of offering should we send?” The men replied, “Make five gold models of the tumors on your skin, and five gold models of rats. Make five of each because that is the same number as the number of your kings, and because the plague has struck both you people and your five kings.
5 Фачець ниште кипурь дупэ умфлэтуриле воастре ши ниште кипурь дупэ шоаречий воштри каре пустиеск цара ши даць славэ Думнезеулуй луй Исраел: поате кэ ва ынчета сэ-Шь апесе мына песте вой, песте думнезеий воштри ши песте цара воастрэ.
Make models that represent the rats and the tumors that are ruining your land. Make them in order to honor the god of the Israeli people. If you do that, perhaps he will stop punishing [IDM] you, and your gods, and your land.
6 Пентру че сэ вэ ымпетриць инима, кум шь-ау ымпетрит инима еӂиптений ши Фараон? Ну й-а педепсит Ел ши н-ау лэсат ей атунч пе копиий луй Исраел сэ плече?
Do not be [RHQ] stubborn [IDM] like the Egyptians and their king were. [They did not do what the Israelis’ god told them to do, so he punished them]. After the Israelis’ god finished punishing them very severely, they were glad to allow the Israelis to leave their country [RHQ].
7 Акум, фачець ун кар ноу де тот ши луаць доуэ вачь тинере, каре дау цыцэ ши каре н-ау трас ла жуг; ынжугаць вачиле ла кар ши мынаць ынапой акасэ вицеий лор каре се цин дупэ еле.
“So you must build a new cart. Then get two cows that have very recently given birth to calves. They must be cows that have never been hitched to a cart [MTY]. Hitch those cows to the new cart, and take the calves away from their mothers.
8 Сэ луаць кивотул Домнулуй ши сэ-л пунець ын кар; сэ пунець алэтурь де ел, ынтр-о ладэ, лукруриле де аур пе каре ле даць Домнулуй ка дар пентру винэ, апой сэ-л тримитець, ши ва плека.
Put the Israelis’ god’s sacred chest on the cart. Also put in the cart the five gold models of the tumors on your skin and the five gold models of rats. Put them in a small box alongside the sacred chest. They will be an offering to show that you know that you deserved to be punished [for capturing the sacred chest]. Then send [the cows] down the road, [pulling] the cart.
9 Сэ-л урмэриць ку привиря ши, дакэ се ва суи пе друмул хотарулуй сэу спре Бет-Шемеш, Домнул не-а фэкут ачест маре рэу; дакэ ну, вом шти кэ ну мына Луй не-а ловит, чи лукрул ачеста а венит песте ной дин ынтымпларе.”
[Watch the cart as the cows pull it]. If they pull it to Beth-Shemesh [town] in Israel, we will know that it was the Israelis’ god who caused us to experience this plague. But if they do not take it there, we will know that it was not the god [MTY] of the Israelis who has punished us. We will know that it just happened.”
10 Оамений ау фэкут аша. Ау луат доуэ вачь каре алэптау, ле-ау ынжугат ла кар ши ле-ау ынкис вицеий акасэ.
So the people did what the priests and men who predicted what would happen in the future told them to do. They [made] a cart [and] hitched two cows to it. They took the calves from their mothers.
11 Ау пус ын кар кивотул Домнулуй ши лада ку шоаречий де аур ши кипуриле умфлэтурилор лор.
They put in the cart Yahweh’s sacred chest and the box with the models of the gold rats and the tumors.
12 Вачиле ау апукат дрепт пе друмул спре Бет-Шемеш; ау цинут мереу ачелашь друм, муӂинд, ши ну с-ау абэтут нич ла дряпта, нич ла стынга. Домниторий филистенилор ау мерс дупэ еле пынэ ла хотарул Бет-Шемешулуй.
Then the cows started walking, and they went straight toward Beth-Shemesh. They stayed on the road, and were mooing all the time. They did not turn to the left or to the right. The five kings of the Philistia area followed the cows until they reached the edge of Beth-Shemesh.
13 Локуиторий дин Бет-Шемеш сечерау грынеле ын вале: ау ридикат окий, ау зэрит кивотул ши с-ау букурат кынд л-ау вэзут.
At that time, the people of Beth-Shemesh were harvesting wheat in the valley [outside the city]. [When the cows came along the road], they looked up and saw the sacred chest. They were extremely happy to see it.
14 Карул а ажунс ын кымпул луй Иосуа дин Бет-Шемеш ши с-а оприт аколо. Аколо ера о пятрэ маре. Ау деспикат лемнеле карулуй, ши вачиле ле-ау адус ка ардере-де-тот Домнулуй.
The cows pulled the cart into the field of a man named Joshua, and they stopped alongside a large rock. Several men from the tribe of Levi lifted from the cart the sacred chest and the box containing the gold models of the rats and the tumors, and they put them all on the large rock. Then the people smashed the cart and kindled a fire with the wood [from which the cart had been made]. They slaughtered the cows and burned their bodies/carcasses on the fire to be an offering for Yahweh that would be completely burned. That day the people of Beth-Shemesh offered to Yahweh [many] sacrifices that were completely burned, and [other] sacrifices.
15 Левиций ау коборыт кивотул Домнулуй ши лада де лынгэ ел, ын каре се афлау лукруриле де аур, ши ле-ау пус пе тоате пе пятра чя маре. Оамений дин Бет-Шемеш ау адус Домнулуй ын зиуа ачея ардерь-де-тот ши жертфе.
16 Чей чинч домниторь ай филистенилор, дупэ че ау вэзут лукрул ачеста, с-ау ынторс ла Екрон ын ачеяшь зи.
The five kings from the Philistia area watched all this, and then they returned to Ekron, that same day.
17 Ятэ умфлэтуриле де аур пе каре ле-ау дат Домнулуй филистений ка дар пентру винэ: уна пентру Асдод, уна пентру Газа, уна пентру Аскалон, уна пентру Гат, уна пентру Екрон.
The five gold models of tumors that they sent to be an offering to Yahweh to show that they knew that they deserved to be punished were gifts from [those five kings who were rulers of] Ashdod, Gaza, Ashkelon, Gath, and Ekron [cities].
18 Ерау ши ниште шоаречь де аур, дупэ нумэрул тутурор четэцилор филистенилор, каре ерау але челор чинч кэпетений, атыт четэць ынтэрите, кыт ши четэць фэрэ зидурь. Лукрул ачеста ыл адевереште пятра чя маре пе каре ау пус кивотул Домнулуй ши каре есте ши астэзь ын кымпул луй Иосуа дин Бет-Шемеш.
The models of the five gold rats were gifts from the people of those five cities and the surrounding towns. The large rock at Beth-Shemesh, on which the [men of the tribe of Levi] set the sacred chest, is still there in the field that belonged to Joshua. When people see it, they remember [what happened there].
19 Домнул а ловит пе оамений дин Бет-Шемеш кынд с-ау уйтат ын кивотул Домнулуй; а ловит (чинчзечь де мий) шаптезечь де оамень дин попор. Ши попорул а плынс, пентру кэ Домнул ыл ловисе ку о маре урӂие.
But seventy men from Beth-Shemesh looked into Yahweh’s sacred chest, and because of that, Yahweh caused them to die. Then the people mourned very much because Yahweh punished [IDM] those men like that.
20 Оамений дин Бет-Шемеш ау зис: „Чине поате ста ынаинтя Домнулуй, ынаинтя ачестуй Думнезеу сфынт? Ши ла чине требуе сэ се суе кивотул, дакэ се депэртязэ де ла ной?”
They said, “No one [RHQ] can (resist the power of/stand in the presence of) Yahweh, our holy God, [and remain alive]! Where can we send the sacred chest?”
21 Ау тримис соль ла локуиторий дин Кириат-Иеарим ка сэ ле спунэ: „Филистений ау адус ынапой кивотул Домнулуй; коборыци-вэ ши суици-л ла вой.”
They sent messengers to the people of Kiriath-Jearim [city] to tell them, “The people of Philistia have returned Yahweh’s sacred chest to us! Come here and take it away!”
