Deuteronomy 4
1 And now give ear, O Israel, to the laws and the decisions which I am teaching you, and do them; so that life may be yours, and you may go in and take for yourselves the land which the Lord, the God of your fathers, is giving you.
Nu tad, Israēl, klausi tos likumus un tās tiesas, ko es jums mācu darīt, lai jūs dzīvojat un ienākat un iemantojat to zemi, ko Tas Kungs, jūsu tēvu Dievs, jums dod.
2 Make no addition to the orders which I give you, and take nothing from them, but keep the orders of the Lord your God which I give you.
Pie tā vārda, ko es jums pavēlu, jums neko nebūs pielikt, nedz no tā ko atraut, ka jūs turat Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, baušļus, ko es jums pavēlu.
3 Your eyes have seen what the Lord did because of Baal-peor: for destruction came from the Lord on all those among you who went after Baal-peor.
Jūsu acis ir redzējušas, ko Tas Kungs Baāl-Peora dēļ darījis; jo ikvienu, kas Baāl-Peoram dzinās pakaļ, to Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, ir izdeldējis no jūsu vidus.
4 But you who kept faith with the Lord are living, every one of you, today.
Bet jūs, kas esat pieķērušies Tam Kungam, savam Dievam, jūs šodien visi esat dzīvi.
5 I have been teaching you laws and decisions, as I was ordered to do by the Lord my God, so that you might keep them in the land to which you are going to take it for your heritage.
Redzi, es jums esmu mācījis tos likumus un tās tiesas, itin kā Tas Kungs, mans Dievs, man pavēlējis, lai jūs tā darāt tanī zemē, ko jūs ejat iemantot.
6 So keep these laws and do them; for so will your wisdom and good sense be clear in the eyes of the peoples, who hearing all these laws will say, Truly, this great nation is a wise and far-seeing people.
Turat nu tos un darāt tos, jo šī būs jūsu gudrība un jūsu saprašana to ļaužu acīs, kas visus šos likumus dzirdēs un sacīs: tiešām gudri un prātīgi ļaudis ir šī lielā tauta.
7 For what great nation has a god so near to them as the Lord our God is, whenever we are turned to him in prayer?
Jo kur ir cita tāda liela tauta, kam dievi tik tuvu, kā Tas Kungs, mūsu Dievs, mums, cikkārt viņu piesaucam?
8 And what great nation has laws and decisions so right as all this law which I put before you today?
Un kur ir cita tāda liela tauta, kam tādi taisni likumi un tiesas, kā visa šī bauslība, ko es šodien lieku jūsu priekšā?
9 Only take care, and keep watch on your soul, for fear that the things which your eyes have seen go from your memory and from your heart all the days of your life; but let the knowledge of them be given to your children and to your children's children;
Bet sargies un sargi ļoti savu dvēseli, ka tu neaizmirsti to, ko tavas acis redzējušas, ka tas neizzūd no tavas sirds visās tava mūža dienās.
10 That day when you were waiting before the Lord your God in Horeb, and the Lord said to me, Make all the people come together, so that hearing my words they may go in fear of me all the days of their life on earth and give this teaching to their children.
Un dari to zināmu saviem bērniem un saviem bērnu bērniem. Tai dienā, kad tu stāvēji priekš Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, Horebā, kad Tas Kungs uz mani sacīja: sapulcini Man tos ļaudis, un Es tiem došu dzirdēt Savus vārdus, lai tie mācās Mani bīties visas dienas, cik ilgi tie virs zemes dzīvo, un lai tie tos māca saviem bērniem,
11 And you came near, waiting at the foot of the mountain; and flames of fire went up from the mountain to the heart of heaven, with dark clouds, and all was black as night.
Tad jūs piegājāt un stāvējāt apakšā pie tā kalna, un tas kalns dega ugunī līdz debess vidum; tur bija tumsa, mākonis un krēsla;
12 And the voice of the Lord came to you out of the fire: the sound of his words came to your ears but you saw no form; there was nothing but a voice.
Un Tas Kungs runāja uz jums no uguns vidus; jūs dzirdējāt to vārdu balsi, bet jūs neredzējāt nekādu ģīmi, balss vien bija.
13 And he gave you his agreement with you, the ten rules which you were to keep, which he put in writing on the two stones of the law.
Tad Viņš jums pasludināja Savu derību, ko Viņš jums pavēlēja darīt, (proti) tos desmit vārdus, un tos rakstīja uz diviem akmens galdiņiem.
14 And the Lord gave me orders at that time to make clear to you these laws and decisions, so that you might do them in the land to which you are going, and which is to be your heritage.
Un Tas Kungs tanī laikā man pavēlēja, lai es jums mācu likumus un tiesas, ko lai jūs dariet tai zemē, ko jūs ejat iemantot.
15 So keep watch on yourselves with care; for you saw no form of any sort on the day when the voice of the Lord came to you in Horeb out of the heart of the fire:
Tad nu sargājaties ļoti savu dvēseļu labad; jo jūs nekādu ģīmi neesat redzējuši tai dienā, kad Tas Kungs Horebā uz jums runāja no uguns vidus, -
16 So that you may not be turned to evil ways and make for yourselves an image in the form of any living thing, male or female,
Ka jūs neapgrēkojaties un sev nedarāt nekādu elka bildi, nekāda tēla līdzību, nedz vīra nedz sievas ģīmi,
17 Or any beast of the earth, or winged bird of the air,
Nekāda lopa ģīmi, kas virs zemes, nekāda spārnaina putna ģīmi, kas apakš debess skraida,
18 Or of anything which goes flat on the earth, or any fish in the water under the earth.
Nekāda tārpa ģīmi, kas virs zemes lien, nekādas zivs ģīmi, kas ūdenī apakš zemes;
19 And when your eyes are lifted up to heaven, and you see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the army of heaven, do not let yourselves be moved to give them worship, or become the servants of what the Lord has given equally to all peoples under heaven.
Un ka tu savas acis nepacel uz debesīm, uzlūkodams sauli un mēnesi un zvaigznes, visu debespulku, un neliecies kārdināties, viņu priekšā zemē mesties un tiem kalpot; tos Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, ir piešķīris visiem ļaudīm apakš visas debess.
20 But the Lord has taken you out of the flaming fire, out of Egypt, to be to him the people of his heritage, as you are today.
Bet jūs Tas Kungs ir pieņēmis un jūs izvedis no tā dzelzs cepļa, no Ēģiptes, lai jūs esat Viņa īpaša tauta, kā tas šodien ir.
21 And the Lord was angry with me because of you, and made an oath that I was not to go over Jordan into the good land which the Lord is giving you for your heritage:
Un Tas Kungs par mani dusmojās jūsu dēļ un zvērēja, ka man nebūs iet pār Jārdani un ka man nebūs nākt uz to labo zemi, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev dod par daļu.
22 But death is to come to me in this land, I may not go over Jordan: but you will go over and take that good land for your heritage.
Jo man jāmirst šinī zemē un es neiešu pār Jardāni, bet jūs iesiet un iemantosiet šo labo zemi.
23 Take care that you do not let the agreement of the Lord your God, which he has made with you, go out of your mind, or make for yourselves images of any sort, against the orders which the Lord your God has given you.
Tad sargājaties nu, ka jūs neaizmirstat Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, derību, ko Viņš ar jums derējis, ka jūs sev nedarāt nekādu elka bildi, nekādu tēlu, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, ir aizliedzis.
24 For the Lord your God is an all-burning fire, and he will not let the honour which is his be given to any other.
Jo Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, ir rijoša uguns, stiprs Dievs, dusmotājs.
25 If, when you have had children and children's children, and have been living a long time in the land, you are turned to evil ways, and make an image of any sort, and do evil in the eyes of the Lord your God, moving him to wrath:
Kad nu jūs dzemdināsiet bērnus un bērnu bērnus un tapsiet veci tai zemē un apgrēkosities, darīdami kādu elka bildi, jeb kādas lietas tēlu, un grēkosiet priekš Tā Kunga, sava Dieva vaiga, Viņu apkaitinādami,
26 May heaven and earth be my witnesses against you today, that destruction will quickly overtake you, cutting you off from that land which you are going over Jordan to take; your days will not be long in that land, but you will come to a complete end.
Tad pār jums šodien piesaucu debesis un zemi par lieciniekiem, ka jūs bojā iesiet piepeši no tās zemes virsas, uz kurieni jūs ejat pār Jardāni to iemantot; jūs tur ilgi nepaliksiet, bet ar izdeldēšanu tapsiet izdeldēti.
27 And the Lord will send you wandering among the peoples; only a small band of you will be kept from death among the nations where the Lord will send you.
Un Tas Kungs jūs izkaisīs starp tautām un no jums atliksies mazs pulciņš starp pagāniem, kurp Tas Kungs jūs aizdzīs.
28 There you will be the servants of gods, made by men's hands, of wood and stone, having no power of seeing or hearing or taking food or smelling.
Un tur jūs kalposiet dieviem, kas ir cilvēku rokas darbs, koks un akmens, kas ne redz, ne dzird, ne ēd, ne ož.
29 But if in those lands you are turned again to the Lord your God, searching for him with all your heart and soul, he will not keep himself from you.
Tad tur jūs meklēsiet To Kungu, savu Dievu, un Viņu atradīsiet, kad meklēsi no visas savas sirds un no visas savas dvēseles.
30 When you are in trouble and all these things have come on you, if, in the future, you are turned again to the Lord your God, and give ear to his voice:
Kad būsi bēdās un visas šīs lietas tev notiks nākamās dienās, tad tu atgriezīsies pie Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, un klausīsi Viņa balsi.
31 Because the Lord your God is a God of mercy, he will not take away his help from you or let destruction overtake you, or be false to the agreement which he made by an oath with your fathers.
Jo sirds žēlīgs Dievs ir Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs; Viņš tevi neatstās, nedz tevi izdeldēs, nedz aizmirsīs tavu tēvu derību, ko Viņš tiem ir zvērējis.
32 Give thought now to the days which are past, before your time, from the day when God first gave life to man on the earth, and searching from one end of heaven to the other, see if such a great thing as this has ever been, or if anything like it has been talked of in story.
Jo vaicā jel pēc tiem pagājušiem laikiem, kas priekš tevis bijuši no tās dienas, kad Dievs cilvēku virs zemes radījis, no viena debess gala līdz otram, vai tāda lieta ir notikusi, kā šī, vai dzirdēta, kā šī?
33 Has any people ever gone on living after hearing the voice of God out of the heart of the fire as you did?
Vai kādi ļaudis dzirdējuši Dieva balsi runājam no uguns vidus, kā tu esi dzirdējis, un palikuši dzīvi?
34 Has God ever before taken a nation for himself from out of another nation, by punishments and signs and wonders, by war and by a strong hand and a stretched-out arm and great acts of wonder and fear, as the Lord your God did for you in Egypt, before your very eyes?
Jeb vai Dievs ir apņēmies iet un Sev vienu tautu ņemt no tautu vidus caur pārbaudīšanām, caur zīmēm un caur brīnumiem un caur karu un caur stipru roku un caur izstieptu elkoni un caur lielām iztrūcināšanām, kā visu to Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, jums darījis priekš jūsu acīm Ēģiptes zemē?
35 All this he let you see, so that you might be certain that the Lord is God and there is no other.
Tev tas ir rādīts, lai tu zini, ka Tas Kungs ir Dievs, cits neviens, kā tik Viņš.
36 Out of heaven itself his voice came to you, teaching you; and on earth he let you see his great fire; and his words came to your ears out of the heart of the fire.
No debesīm Viņš tev licis dzirdēt Savu balsi, tevi pamācīdams, un virs zemes Viņš tev rādījis Savu lielo uguni, un tu Viņa vārdus esi dzirdējis no uguns vidus.
37 And because of his love for your fathers, he took their seed and made it his, and he himself, present among you, took you out of Egypt by his great power;
Un tāpēc, ka Viņš tavus tēvus bija mīlējis un izredzējis viņu dzimumu pēc viņiem, tad Viņš tevi izvedis ar Savu vaigu no Ēģiptes zemes caur Savu lielo spēku,
38 Driving out before you nations greater and stronger than you, to take you into their land and give it to you for your heritage, as at this day.
Gribēdams izdzīt tavā priekšā lielas tautas, kas jo stiprākas nekā tu, un tevi ievest viņu zemē, un tev to dot par daļu, kā tas šodien ir.
39 So today be certain, and keep the knowledge deep in your hearts, that the Lord is God, in heaven on high and here on earth; there is no other God.
Tā tev šodien būs zināt, un savā sirdī pieminēt, ka Tas Kungs ir Dievs augšā debesīs un apakšā virs zemes, un cits neviens.
40 Then keep his laws and his orders which I give you today, so that it may be well for you and for your children after you, and that your lives may be long in the land which the Lord your God is giving you for ever.
Un tev būs turēt Viņa likumus un Viņa baušļus, ko es tev šodien pavēlu, lai labi klājās tev un taviem bērniem pēc tevis, un lai tavas dienas top pagarinātas tai zemē, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev dod mūžīgi.
41 Then Moses had three towns marked out on the far side of Jordan looking to the east;
Tad Mozus atšķīra trīs pilsētas viņpus Jardānes pret saules uzlēkšanu,
42 To which anyone causing the death of his neighbour in error and not through hate, might go in flight; so that in one of these towns he might be kept from death:
Ka uz turieni bēgtu tas nokāvējs, kas savu tuvāko netīši nositis, ar ko viņš agrāk nebija ienaidā, ka tas nobēgtu uz vienu no šīm pilsētām un paliktu dzīvs, -
43 The names of the towns were Bezer in the waste land, in the table-land, for the Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gilead for the Gadites; and Golan in Bashan for Manasseh.
Beceru tuksnesī, klajā zemē, priekš Rūbeniešiem, un Rāmotu Gileādā priekš Gadiešiem, un Golanu Basanā priekš Manasiešiem.
44 This is the law which Moses put before the children of Israel:
Šī nu ir tā bauslība, ko Mozus lika priekšā Israēla bērniem;
45 These are the rules and the laws and the decisions which Moses gave to the children of Israel after they came out of Egypt;
Šīs tās liecības un tie likumi un tās tiesas, ko Mozus uz Israēla bērniem runāja, kad tie bija izgājuši no Ēģiptes zemes,
46 On the far side of Jordan, in the valley facing Beth-peor, in the land of Sihon, king of the Amorites, who was ruling in Heshbon, whom Moses and the children of Israel overcame after they had come out of Egypt:
Viņpus Jardānes, tai ielejā Bet-Peoram pretī, Sihona, Amoriešu ķēniņa zemē, kas Hešbonā dzīvoja, ko Mozus un Israēla bērni sakāva, kad tie bija izgājuši no Ēģiptes zemes.
47 And they took his land for a heritage, and the land of Og, king of Bashan, the two kings of the Amorites, whose lands were on the other side of Jordan to the east;
Un tie viņa zemi bija iemantojuši, arī Oga, Basanas ķēniņa, zemi, to divu Amoriešu ķēniņu zemi, kas viņpus Jardānes pret saules lēkšanu,
48 From Aroer on the edge of the valley of the Arnon as far as Mount Sion, which is Hermon,
No Aroēra, kas pie Arnonas upes krasta, līdz Sihona kalnam, tas ir Hermons,
49 And all the Arabah on the far side of Jordan to the east, as far as the sea of the Arabah under the slopes of Pisgah.
Un visu klajumu viņpus Jardānes pret rītiem līdz klajuma ezeram apakš Pizgas pakalniem.
