1 Kings 20
1 Now Ben-hadad, king of Aram, got all his army together, and thirty-two kings with him, and horses and carriages of war; he went up and made war on Samaria, shutting it in.
Un BenHadads, Sīrijas ķēniņš, sapulcināja visu savu spēku, un trīsdesmit un divi ķēniņi bija viņam līdz un zirgi un rati, un viņš nogāja un apmetās pret Samariju, un karoja pret to.
2 And he sent representatives into the town to Ahab, king of Israel;
Un viņš sūtīja vēstnešus pilsētā pie Ahaba, Israēla ķēniņa,
3 And they said to him, Ben-hadad says, Your silver and your gold are mine; and your wives and children are mine.
Un lika tam sacīt: tā saka BenHadads: tavs sudrabs un tavs zelts būs mans, arī tavas sievas un tavi labākie bērni būs mani.
4 And the king of Israel sent him an answer saying, As you say, my lord king, I am yours with all I have.
Un Israēla ķēniņš atbildēja un sacīja: pēc tava vārda, mans kungs un ķēniņ, es esmu tavs, un viss, kas man ir.
5 Then the representatives came back again, and said, These are the words of Ben-hadad: I sent to you saying, Give up to me your silver and your gold, your wives and your children;
Un tie vēstneši nāca atkal atpakaļ un sacīja: tā runā BenHadads un saka: es gan pie tevis esmu sūtījis un licis sacīt: tavu sudrabu un tavu zeltu un tavas sievas un tavus bērnus tev man būs dot,
6 But I will send my servants to you tomorrow about this time, to make a search through your house and the houses of your people, and everything which is pleasing in your eyes they will take away in their hands.
Bet rītu ap šo laiku es savus kalpus pie tevis sūtīšu, izmeklēt tavu namu un tavu kalpu namu, un viss, kas tur skaists priekš tavām acīm, to tiem būs ņemt un aiznest.
7 Then the king of Israel sent for all the responsible men of the land, and said, Now will you take note and see the evil purpose of this man: he sent for my wives and my children, my silver and my gold, and I did not keep them back.
Tad Israēla ķēniņš saaicināja visas zemes vecajus un sacīja: ņemiet jel vērā un redziet, kā šis ļaunu meklē. Jo tas pie manis ir sūtījis pēc manām sievām un pēc maniem bērniem un pēc mana sudraba un zelta, un es tam to neesmu liedzis.
8 And all the responsible men and the people said to him, Do not give attention to him or do what he says.
Bet visi vecaji un visi ļaudis uz viņu sacīja: nepaklausi un neļauj to.
9 So he said to the representatives of Ben-hadad, Say to my lord the king, All the orders you sent the first time I will do; but this thing I may not do. And the representatives went back with this answer.
Tad viņš sacīja uz BenHadada vēstnešiem: sakāt ķēniņam, manam kungam: visu, par ko tu pirmo reizi pie sava kalpa sūtījis, to es darīšu, bet šo lietu es nevaru darīt. Tad tie vēstneši nogāja un viņam atsacīja to vārdu.
10 Then Ben-hadad sent to him, saying, May the gods' punishment be on me if there is enough of the dust of Samaria for all the people at my feet to take some in their hands.
Un BenHadads sūtīja pie viņa un lika sacīt: lai man dievi šā vai tā dara, ja Samarijas pīšļi pietiks visu ļaužu saujām, kas man ir līdz.
11 And the king of Israel said in answer, Say to him, The time for loud talk is not when a man is putting on his arms, but when he is taking them off.
Bet Israēla ķēniņš atbildēja un sacīja: atsakiet tā: kas apjozies, tas lai nelielās kā tas, kas atjozies.
12 Now when this answer was given to Ben-hadad, he was drinking with the kings in the tents, and he said to his men, Take up your positions. So they put themselves in position for attacking the town.
Kad nu tas šo vārdu dzirdēja, ar tiem ķēniņiem teltīs dzerot, tad viņš sacīja uz saviem kalpiem taisāties. Un tie taisījās pret to pilsētu.
13 Then a prophet came up to Ahab, king of Israel, and said, The Lord says, Have you seen all this great army? See, I will give it into your hands today, and you will see that I am the Lord.
Un redzi, viens pravietis nāca pie Ahaba, Israēla ķēniņa, un sacīja: “Tā saka Tas Kungs: vai tu esi redzējis visu šo lielo pulku? Redzi, Es to šodien došu tavā rokā, lai tu atzīsti, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs.”
14 And Ahab said, By whom? And he said, The Lord says, By the servants of the chiefs who are over the divisions of the land. Then he said, By whom is the fighting to be started? And he made answer, By you.
Un Ahabs sacīja: “Caur ko?” Tad viņš sacīja: “Tā saka Tas Kungs: caur zemes valdnieku puišiem.” Un viņš sacīja: “Kas lai uzsāk kauju?” Tad viņš sacīja: “Tu pats.”
15 Then he got together the servants of all the chiefs who were over the divisions of the land, two hundred and thirty-two of them; and after them, he got together all the people, all the children of Israel, seven thousand.
Tad viņš skaitīja tos zemes valdnieku puišus, to bija divsimt trīsdesmit un divi. Un pēc tiem viņš skaitīja visus ļaudis, visus Israēla bērnus, to bija septiņi tūkstoši.
16 And in the middle of the day they went out. But Ben-hadad was drinking in the tents with the thirty-two kings who were helping him.
Un tie izgāja dienasvidū. Bet BenHadads dzēra un piedzērās teltīs ar tiem trīsdesmit un diviem ķēniņiem, kas tam bija palīgā.
17 And the servants of the chiefs who were over the divisions of the land went forward first; and when Ben-hadad sent out, they gave him the news, saying, Men have come out from Samaria.
Un tie zemes valdnieku puiši izgāja papriekš. Tad BenHadads izsūtīja, un tie tam teica un sacīja: vīri nāk no Samarijas.
18 And he said, If they have come out for peace, take them living, and if they have come out for war, take them living.
Tad viņš sacīja: vai tie nākuši uz mieru, sagrābiet tos dzīvus, vai tie nākuši uz kauju, dzīvus tos sagrābiet!
19 So the servants of the chiefs of the divisions of the land went out of the town, with the army coming after them.
Kad nu šie zemes valdnieku puiši no pilsētas bija izgājuši un arī tas karaspēks, kas tiem gāja pakaļ,
20 And every one of them put his man to death, and the Aramaeans went in flight with Israel after them; and Ben-hadad, king of Aram, got away safely on a horse with his horsemen.
Tad tie kāva vīrs vīru. Un Sīrieši bēga un Israēls tiem dzinās pakaļ. Bet BenHadads, Sīrijas ķēniņš, izglābās uz zirga un ar jātniekiem.
21 And the king of Israel went out and took the horses and the war-carriages, and made great destruction among the Aramaeans.
Un Israēla ķēniņš izgāja un kāva zirgus un ratus un kāva Sīriešus lielā kaušanā.
22 Then the prophet came up to the king of Israel, and said to him, Now make yourself strong, and take care what you do, or a year from now the king of Aram will come up against you again.
Tad tas pravietis nāca pie Israēla ķēniņa un uz to sacīja; ej, stiprinājies: ņem vērā un lūko, ko tu dari, jo nākošā gadā Sīrijas ķēniņš atkal nāks pret tevi.
23 Then the king of Aram's servants said to him, Their god is a god of the hills; that is why they were stronger than we: but if we make an attack on them in the lowlands, we will certainly be stronger than they.
Jo Sīrijas ķēniņa kalpi uz to sacīja: viņu dievi ir kalna dievi, tāpēc tie bijuši stiprāki nekā mēs. Kaut mums ar tiem būtu jākaro klajumā! Varbūt ka mēs būtu stiprāki nekā tie.
24 This is what you have to do: take away the kings from their positions, and put captains in their places;
Tāpēc dari tā: atcel tos ķēniņus, ikvienu no viņa vietas, un iecel viņu vietā virsniekus.
25 And get together another army like the one which came to destruction, horse for horse, and carriage for carriage; and let us make war on them in the lowlands, and certainly we will be stronger than they. And he gave ear to what they said, and did so.
Un taisi sev karaspēku, kāds tas bija, kas tev zudis, un zirgus, kā bija zirgi, un ratus, kā bija rati, un iesim ar tiem kauties klajumā; vai nebūsim stiprāki par tiem? Un tas klausīja viņu balsi un tā darīja.
26 So, a year later, Ben-hadad got the Aramaeans together and went up to Aphek to make war on Israel.
Un otrā gadā BenHadads skaitīja Sīriešus un cēlās uz Afeku, karot pret Israēli.
27 And the children of Israel got themselves together, and food was made ready and they went against them; the tents of the children of Israel were like two little flocks of goats before them, but all the country was full of the Aramaeans.
Un Israēla bērni arī tapa skaitīti un izrīkoti, un gāja tiem pretī, un Israēla bērni apmetās tiem pretī, kā divi kazu pulciņi, bet zeme bija Sīriešu pilna.
28 And a man of God came up and said to the king of Israel, The Lord says, Because the Aramaeans have said, The Lord is a god of the hills and not of the valleys; I will give all this great army into your hands, and you will see that I am the Lord.
Un tas Dieva vīrs nāca un runāja uz Israēla ķēniņu un sacīja: “Tā saka Tas Kungs: tāpēc ka Sīrieši sacījuši: Tas Kungs ir kalnu Dievs un ne arī ieleju Dievs, tad visu šo lielo pulku Es dodu tavā rokā, lai jūs atzīstat, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs.”
29 Now the two armies kept their positions facing one another for seven days. And on the seventh day the fight was started; and the children of Israel put to the sword a hundred thousand Aramaean footmen in one day.
Un tie palika apmetušies viens otram pretim septiņas dienas. Un septītā dienā kaušanās sākās, un Israēla bērni nokāva no Sīriešiem simts tūkstoš kājniekus vienā dienā.
30 But the rest went in flight to Aphek, into the town, where a wall came down on the twenty-seven thousand who were still living. And Ben-hadad went in flight into the town, into an inner room.
Un tie atlikušie bēga uz Afekas pilsētu, un mūris sagruva pār divdesmit un septiņtūkstošiem no šiem atlikušiem. Un BenHadads bēga un nāca pilsētā no vienas istabas otrā.
31 Then his servants said to him, It is said that the kings of Israel are full of mercy: let us then put on haircloth, and cords on our heads, and go to the king of Israel; it may be that he will give you your life.
Tad viņa kalpi uz to sacīja: redzi, mēs esam dzirdējuši, ka Israēla nama ķēniņi ir žēlīgi ķēniņi. Apvilksim maisus ap saviem gurniem un virves ap savām galvām, un iesim ārā pie Israēla ķēniņa; vai viņš tavai dvēselei neļaus dzīvot.
32 So they put on haircloth, and cords on their heads, and came to the king of Israel and said, Your servant Ben-hadad says, Let me now keep my life. And he said, Is he still living? he is my brother.
Un tie apvilka maisus ap saviem gurniem un virves ap savām galvām, un nāca pie Israēla ķēniņa un sacīja: tavs kalps BenHadads saka: ļauj jel manai dvēselei dzīvot. Tad tas sacīja: vai viņš vēl dzīvs? Viņš ir mans brālis.
33 Now the men took it as a sign, and quickly took up his words; and they said, Ben-hadad is your brother. Then he said, Go and get him. So Ben-hadad came out to him and he made him get up into his carriage.
Un tie vīri saprata šo vārdu sev par labu un steigšus to lika sev apstiprināt no viņa un sacīja: tad BenHadads tavs brālis? Un viņš sacīja: ejat un atvediet to šurp. Tad BenHadads iznāca pie viņa, un viņš tam lika kāpt ratos.
34 And Ben-hadad said to him, The towns my father took from your father I will give back; and you may make streets for yourself in Damascus as my father did in Samaria. And as for me, at the price of this agreement you will let me go. So he made an agreement with him and let him go.
Un BenHadads uz to sacīja: tās pilsētas, ko mans tēvs tavam tēvam paņēmis, es gribu atdot, un dari sev ielas Damaskā, itin kā mans tēvs darījis Samarijā. (Un Ahabs sacīja: ) ar šo derību es tevi atlaidīšu. Tā viņš ar to derēja derību un to atlaida.
35 And a certain man of the sons of the prophets said to his neighbour by the word of the Lord, Give me a wound. But the man would not.
Un viens vīrs no praviešu bērniem sacīja uz otru caur Tā Kunga vārdu: sit jel mani. Bet tas vīrs liedzās to sist.
36 Then he said to him, Because you have not given ear to the voice of the Lord, straight away when you have gone from me a lion will put you to death. And when he had gone, straight away a lion came rushing at him and put him to death.
Un viņš uz šo sacīja: tāpēc ka tu Tā Kunga balsi neesi klausījis, redzi, tad tevi lauva sitīs, kad tu no manis aiziesi. Kad nu tas no viņa aizgāja, lauva to sastapa un saplēsa.
37 Then he came across another man, and said, Give me a wound. And the man gave him a blow wounding him.
Un viņš atrada citu vīru un sacīja: sit jel mani. Un tas vīrs to sita, un to sizdams ievainoja.
38 So the prophet went away, and pulling his head-band over his eyes to keep his face covered, took his place by the road waiting for the king.
Tad tas pravietis gāja un nostājās ķēniņam ceļā un aptina savu vaigu ar drānu.
39 And when the king went by, crying out to him he said, Your servant went out into the fight; and a man came out to me with another man and said, Keep this man: if by any chance he gets away, your life will be the price of his life, or you will have to give a talent of silver in payment.
Kad nu ķēniņš gāja garām, tad viņš sauca uz ķēniņu un sacīja: tavs kalps bija izgājis kaujā, un redzi, viens vīrs nāca malā un atveda pie manis vienu vīru un sacīja: apsargi šo vīru; ja tas kaut kā nozustu, tad tava dvēsele būs viņa dvēseles vietā, vai tev būs jāmaksā viens talents sudraba.
40 But while your servant was turning this way and that, he was gone. Then the king of Israel said to him, You are responsible; you have given the decision against yourself.
Kad nu tavam kalpam šur tur kas bija jādara, tad viņš nozuda. Un Israēla ķēniņš sacīja: tāds tavs spriedums, kā pats spriedis.
41 Then he quickly took the head-band from his eyes; and the king of Israel saw that he was one of the prophets.
Tad viņš steigšus noņēma to drānu no sava vaiga, un Israēla ķēniņš to pazina, ka tas bija viens no tiem praviešiem.
42 And he said to him, These are the words of the Lord: Because you have let go from your hands the man whom I had put to the curse, your life will be taken for his life, and your people for his people.
Un viņš uz to sacīja: “Tā saka Tas Kungs: “Tāpēc ka tu šo vīru, ko es liku izdeldēt, esi izlaidis no rokas, tad tava dvēsele būs viņa dvēseles vietā, un tavi ļaudis viņa ļaužu vietā.””
43 Then the king of Israel went back to his house, bitter and angry, and came to Samaria.
Un Israēla ķēniņš nogāja saīdzis un dusmīgs savā namā un aizgāja uz Samariju.
