< 2 Kings 3 >

1 Now Jehoram the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and reigned twelve years.
Un Jorams, Ahaba dēls, palika par ķēniņu pār Israēli Samarijā, Jehošafata, Jūda ķēniņa, astoņpadsmitā gadā un valdīja divpadsmit gadus.
2 And he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, but not like his father and like his mother, for he put away the pillar of Baal that his father had made.
Un viņš darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika, bet ne tā, kā viņa tēvs un kā viņa māte, jo viņš lika noņemt to uzcelto Baāla stabu, ko viņa tēvs bija taisījis.
3 Nevertheless he clung to the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin; he did not depart therefrom.
Tikai viņš pieķērās Jerobeama, Nebata dēla, grēkiem, uz ko tas Israēli bija pavedis, - no tiem viņš neatstājās. -
4 Now Mesha king of Moab was a sheep-master. And he rendered to the king of Israel the wool of a hundred thousand lambs, and of a hundred thousand rams.
Un Mešum, Moaba ķēniņam, bija daudz lopu, un viņš deva Israēla ķēniņam par mesliem simts tūkstoš jērus un simts tūkstoš aunus ar visu vilnu.
5 But it came to pass, when Ahab was dead, that the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.
Bet kad Ahabs bija nomiris, tad Moaba ķēniņš atkrita no Israēla ķēniņa.
6 And king Jehoram went out of Samaria at that time, and mustered all Israel.
Tad ķēniņš Jorams tai laikā cēlās no Samarijas un sarīkoja visu Israēli,
7 And he went and sent to Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, saying, The king of Moab has rebelled against me. Will thou go with me against Moab to battle? And he said, I will go up. I am as thou are, my people as thy people, my horses as thy horses.
Un nogāja un sūtīja pie Jehošafata, Jūda ķēniņa, sacīdams: Moaba ķēniņš no manis atkritis, vai tu līdz ar mani gribi karā iet pret Moabu? Un tas sacīja: es iešu līdz, es būšu kā tu, mani ļaudis kā tavi ļaudis, un mani zirgi kā tavi zirgi.
8 And he said, Which way shall we go up? And he answered, The way of the wilderness of Edom.
Un viņš sacīja: pa kuru ceļu iesim? Un tas sacīja pa Edoma tuksneša ceļu.
9 So the king of Israel went, and the king of Judah, and the king of Edom. And they made a circuit of seven days' journey, and there was no water for the army, nor for the beasts that followed them.
Tā tie gāja, Israēla ķēniņš un Jūda ķēniņš un Edoma ķēniņš. Un kad tie bija gājuši septiņu dienu gājumu, tad tiem nebija ūdens, ne karaspēkam, ne lopiem, kas tiem bija līdz.
10 And the king of Israel said, Alas! For Jehovah has called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand of Moab.
Tad Israēla ķēniņš sacīja: Ak vai! Tas Kungs šos trīs ķēniņus aicinājis, ka Viņš tos dotu Moaba rokā!
11 But Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of Jehovah, that we may inquire of Jehovah by him? And one of the king of Israel's servants answered and said, Elisha the son of Shaphat is here, who poured water on the hands of Elijah.
Un Jehošafats sacīja: vai še nav kāds no Tā Kunga praviešiem, ka To Kungu caur viņu vaicātu? Tad viens no Israēla ķēniņa kalpiem tam atbildēja un sacīja: še ir Eliša, Šafata dēls, kas ūdeni lēja uz Elijas rokām.
12 And Jehoshaphat said, The word of Jehovah is with him. So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him.
Un Jehošafats sacīja: Tā Kunga vārds ir pie viņa. Tad pie tā nogāja Israēla ķēniņš un Jehošafats un Edoma ķēniņš.
13 And Elisha said to the king of Israel, What have I to do with thee? Get thee to the prophets of thy father, and to the prophets of thy mother. And the king of Israel said to him, No, for Jehovah has called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand of Moab.
Bet Eliša sacīja uz Israēla ķēniņu: kas man ar tevi? Ej pie sava tēva praviešiem un pie savas mātes praviešiem. Bet Israēla ķēniņš uz to sacīja: nē, jo Tas Kungs šos trīs ķēniņus ir aicinājis, ka viņš tos dotu Moaba rokā.
14 And Elisha said, As Jehovah of hosts lives, before whom I stand, surely, were it not that I regard the presence of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would not look toward thee, nor see thee.
Un Eliša sacīja: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs Cebaot dzīvs, priekš kā es stāvu, ja es to nedarītu Jehošafata, Jūda ķēniņa, labad, tad es tev ne virsū neskatītos nedz tevi ievērotu.
15 But now bring me a minstrel. And it came to pass, when the minstrel played, that the hand of Jehovah came upon him.
Nu tad, dabūjat man vienu koklētāju. Un tam koklētājam koklējot Tā Kunga roka nāca pār viņu,
16 And he said, Thus says Jehovah, Make this valley full of trenches.
Un viņš sacīja: tā saka Tas Kungs: rokat grāvi pie grāvja šinī ielejā.
17 For thus says Jehovah, Ye shall not see wind, neither shall ye see rain, yet that valley shall be filled with water, and ye shall drink, both ye and your cattle and your beasts.
Jo tā saka Tas Kungs: jūs neredzēsiet ne vēju ne lietu, tomēr šī ieleja būs pilna ūdens, jums dzert pašiem un jūsu sīkiem un lieliem lopiem.
18 And this is but a light thing in the sight of Jehovah. He will also deliver the Moabites into your hand.
Un tas ir vēl maz priekš Tā Kunga, viņš arī Moabu dos jūsu rokā.
19 And ye shall smite every fortified city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all fountains of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones.
Un jums būs kaut visas stiprās pilsētas un visas izredzētās pilsētas, un nocirst visus labos kokus un aizbāzt visus ūdens avotus un samaitāt visus labos tīrumus ar akmeņiem.
20 And it came to pass in the morning, about the time of offering the oblation, that, behold, there came water by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water.
Un notikās no rīta ap ēdamā upura laiku, redzi, tad ūdens nāca no Edoma puses, un zeme tapa ūdens pilna.
21 Now when all the Moabites heard that the kings came up to fight against them, they gathered themselves together, all that were able to put on armor, and upward, and stood on the border.
Kad nu visi Moabieši dzirdēja, ka tie ķēniņi nāca, pret tiem karot, tad tie sasauca visus, kas spēja bruņas nest, un vēl pārāki(vecākie) un tie stājās uz robežām.
22 And they rose up early in the morning, and the sun shone upon the water, and the Moabites saw the water opposite them as red as blood.
Un kad tie no rīta agri cēlās un saule bija uzlēkusi pār to ūdeni, tad Moabieši no tālienes to ūdeni redzēja sarkanu kā asinis.
23 And they said, This is blood. The kings are surely destroyed, and they have smitten each man his fellow. Now therefore, Moab, to the spoil.
Un tie sacīja: tās ir asinis; tiešām tie ķēniņi pacēluši zobenu, zobenus viens pret otru un cits citu nokāvuši. Un nu, Moab, celies uz laupīšanu.
24 And when they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and smote the Moabites, so that they fled before them, and they went forward into the land smiting the Moabites.
Bet kad tie nāca pie Israēla lēģera, tad Israēlieši cēlās un kāva Moabiešus un šie no viņiem bēga. Un tie tur ielauzās un apkāva Moabiešus,
25 And they beat down the cities. And on every good piece of land they cast every man his stone, and filled it. And they stopped all the fountains of water, and felled all the good trees, until in Kir-hareseth only they left the stones of it. However the slingers went about it, and smote it.
Un nopostīja tās pilsētas, un ikkatrs meta savu akmeni uz visiem labiem tīrumiem un tos sameta pilnus, un aizbāza visus avotus un nocirta visus labos kokus, līdz kamēr Ķirarezetē akmeņus vien atlicināja. Un lingotāji ap to apmetās un tai svieda virsū.
26 And when the king of Moab saw that the battle was too hard for him, he took with him seven hundred men that drew sword to break through to the king of Edom, but they could not.
Kad nu Moaba ķēniņš redzēja, ka kaušanās tam metās par stipru, tad viņš pie sevis ņēma septiņsimt vīrus, kas zobenu izvilka, lauzties cauri pret Edoma ķēniņu, bet tie nespēja.
27 Then he took his eldest son who should have reigned in his stead, and offered him for a burnt offering upon the wall. And there was great wrath against Israel, and they departed from him, and returned to their own land.
Tad viņš ņēma savu pirmdzimušo dēlu, kam viņa vietā bija palikt par ķēniņu, un to upurēja par dedzināmo upuri uz mūra. Un Israēli pārņēma lielas dusmas un tie no tā atstājās un griezās atpakaļ uz savu zemi.
