< Joshua 6 >

1 (Now Jericho was all shut up because of the children of Israel: there was no going out or coming in.)
Un Jērikus aizslēdza vārtus un bija aizslēgts priekš Israēla bērniem; tur neviens ne izgāja, ne iegāja.
2 And the Lord said to Joshua, See, I have given into your hands Jericho with its king and all its men of war.
Tad Tas Kungs sacīja uz Jozua: redzi, Jēriku ar viņa ķēniņu un stipriem karavīriem Es dodu tavā rokā.
3 Now let all your fighting-men make a circle round the town, going all round it once. Do this for six days.
Un ejat ap pilsētu, visi kara vīri visapkārt ap pilsētu vienreiz; tā dari sešas dienas.
4 And let seven priests go before the ark with seven loud-sounding horns in their hands: on the seventh day you are to go round the town seven times, the priests blowing their horns.
Un septiņi priesteri lai nes septiņas gaviles bazūnes tā šķirsta priekšā, un septītā dienā ejat septiņas reizes ap pilsētu un tie priesteri lai pūš bazūnes.
5 And at the sound of a long note on the horns, let all the people give a loud cry; and the wall of the town will come down flat, and all the people are to go straight forward.
Un kad tie pūtīs gaviles bazūni un jūs dzirdēsiet bazūnes skaņu, tad lai visi ļaudis kliedz lielā kliegšanā, un pilsētas mūri sagrūs, un tie ļaudis lai kāpj iekšā, kur katrs stāvēdams.
6 Then Joshua, the son of Nun, sent for the priests and said to them, Take up the ark of the agreement, and let seven priests take seven horns in their hands and go before the ark of the Lord.
Tad Jozuas, Nuna dēls, aicināja tos priesterus un uz tiem sacīja: nesiet derības šķirstu, un lai septiņi priesteri nes septiņas gaviles bazūnes Tā Kunga šķirsta priekšā.
7 And he said to the people, Go forward, circling the town, and let the armed men go before the ark of the Lord.
Un uz tiem ļaudīm viņš sacīja: ejat apkārt ap pilsētu, un tie apbruņotie lai iet Tā Kunga šķirsta priekšā.
8 So after Joshua had said this to the people, the seven priests with their seven horns went forward before the Lord, blowing on their horns: and the ark of the Lord's agreement went after them.
Un kā Jozuas uz tiem ļaudīm bija sacījis, tā tie septiņi priesteri gāja nesdami septiņas gaviles bazūnes Tā Kunga priekšā, tie gāja un pūta bazūnes, un Tā Kunga derības šķirsts tiem gāja pakaļ.
9 And the armed men went before the priests who were blowing the horns, and the mass of the people went after the ark, blowing their horns.
Un tie apbruņotie gāja to priesteru priekšā, kas bazūnes pūta, un tas pulks gāja tam šķirstam pakaļ, ejot bazūnes pūzdami.
10 And to the people Joshua gave an order, saying, You will give no cry, and make no sound, and let no word go out of your mouth till the day when I say, Give a loud cry; then give a loud cry.
Un Jozuas tiem ļaudīm bija pavēlējis sacīdams: jums nebūs kliegt, un lai jūsu balss netop dzirdēta, un lai ne vārds neiziet no jūsu mutes līdz tai dienai, kad es jums sacīšu: kliedzat! Tad jums būs kliegt.
11 So he made the ark of the Lord go all round the town once: then they went back to the tents for the night.
Un Tā Kunga šķirsts gāja ap pilsētu apkārt vienreiz; tad tie nāca atkal lēģerī un palika par nakti lēģerī.
12 And early in the morning Joshua got up, and the priests took up the ark of the Lord.
Un Jozuas cēlās no rīta agri, un tie priesteri nesa Tā Kunga šķirstu.
13 And the seven priests with their seven horns went on before the ark of the Lord, blowing their horns: the armed men went before them, and the mass of the people went after the ark of the Lord, blowing their horns.
Un tie septiņi priesteri, kas tās septiņas gaviles bazūnes nesa Tā Kunga šķirsta priekšā, gāja un ejot pūta bazūnes un tie apbruņotie gāja viņiem pa priekšu, un tas pulks gāja Tā Kunga šķirstam pakaļ, un ejot pūta bazūnes.
14 The second day they went all round the town once, and then went back to their tents: and so they did for six days.
Un otrā dienā tie gāja ap pilsētu vienreiz un griezās atkal lēģerī; tā tie darīja sešas dienas.
15 Then on the seventh day they got up early, at the dawn of the day, and went round the town in the same way, but that day they went round it seven times.
Un septītā dienā tie cēlās agri, gaismai austot, un gāja ap pilsētu tādā pašā kārtā septiņas reizes; tik vien šai dienā tie gāja ap pilsētu septiņas reizes.
16 And the seventh time, at the sound of the priests' horns, Joshua said to the people, Now give a loud cry; for the Lord has given you the town.
Un septītā reizē, kad tie priesteri bazūnes pūta, Jozuas sacīja uz tiem ļaudīm: kliedzat, jo Tas Kungs jums to pilsētu ir devis.
17 And the town will be put to the curse, and everything in it will be given to the Lord: only Rahab, the loose woman, and all who are in the house with her, will be kept safe, because she kept secret the men we sent.
Un tā pilsēta un viss, kas tur ir, Tam Kungam lai top izdeldēts; Rahaba tikai, tā mauka, lai paliek dzīva, un visi, kas pie viņas ir namā, jo viņa ir paslēpusi tos vīrus, ko bijām izsūtījuši.
18 And as for you, keep yourselves from the cursed thing, for fear that you may get a desire for it and take some of it for yourselves, and so be the cause of a curse and great trouble on the tents of Israel.
Tikai sargājaties no tā izdeldējamā, ka jūs paši netopat izdeldēti, un neņemat no tā izdeldējamā, un nedarāt, ka Israēla lēģeris netop izdeldēts, un nevedat to postā.
19 But all the silver and gold and the vessels of brass and iron are holy to the Lord: they are to come into the store-house of the Lord.
Bet viss sudrabs un zelts un vara un dzelzs rīki, - tas lai Tam Kungam ir svēts, tam būs nākt pie Tā Kunga mantas.
20 So the people gave a loud cry, and the horns were sounded; and on hearing the horns the people gave a loud cry, and the wall came down flat, so that the people went up into the town, every man going straight before him, and they took the town.
Tad nu tie ļaudis kliedza, un bazūnes tapa pūstas. Un notikās, kad tie ļaudis dzirdēja bazūnes skaņu, tad tie ļaudis kliedza lielā kliegšanā, un tas mūris sagruva, un tie ļaudis kāpa pilsētā, kur katrs stāvēdams,
21 And they put everything in the town to the curse; men and women, young and old, ox and sheep and ass, they put to death without mercy.
Un tie uzņēma to pilsētu un izdeldēja ar zobena asmeni visu, kas pilsētā bija, vīrus un sievas, bērnus un vecos līdz ar vēršiem un sīkiem lopiem un ēzeļiem.
22 Then Joshua said to the two men who had been sent to make a search through the land, Go into the house of the loose woman, and get her out, and all who are with her, as you gave her your oath.
Tad Jozuas sacīja tiem diviem vīriem, tās zemes izlūkiem: ejat tās sievas, tās maukas, namā, un izvediet no turienes to sievu un visu, kas tai pieder, kā jūs tai esat zvērējuši.
23 So the searchers went in and got out Rahab and her father and mother and her brothers and all she had, and they got out all her family; and they took them outside the tents of Israel.
Tad tie jaunekļi, tie izlūki, gāja un izveda Rahabu un viņas tēvu un viņas māti un viņas brāļus un visu, kas tai piederēja; tie izveda arī visus viņas radus un lika tiem palikt ārā priekš Israēla lēģera.
24 Then, after burning up the town and everything in it, they put the silver and gold and the vessels of brass and iron into the store-house of the Lord's house.
Un to pilsētu tie sadedzināja ar uguni, un visu, kas tur bija; bet to sudrabu un zeltu līdz ar tiem vara un dzelzs rīkiem, to tie lika pie Tā Kunga nama mantas.
25 But Joshua kept Rahab, the loose woman, and her father's family and all she had, from death, and so she got a living-place among the children of Israel to this day; because she kept safe the men whom Joshua had sent to make a search through the land.
Bet to mauku Rahabu un viņas tēva namu, un visu, kas tai piederēja, Jozuas pameta dzīvu, un tā dzīvo Israēla vidū līdz šai dienai, tāpēc ka viņa bija paslēpusi tos vīrus, ko Jozuas bija izsūtījis, Jēriku izlūkot.
26 Then Joshua gave the people orders with an oath, saying, Let that man be cursed before the Lord who puts his hand to the building up of this town: with the loss of his first son will he put the first stone of it in place, and with the loss of his youngest son he will put up its doors.
Un tanī laikā Jozuas zvērēja un sacīja: nolādēts lai ir tas vīrs Tā Kunga priekšā, kas celsies un uztaisīs šo pilsētu Jēriku! Pamatu tas lai liek par savu pirmdzimto un vārtus lai ceļ par savu jaunāko!
27 So the Lord was with Joshua; and news of him went through all the land.
Tā Tas Kungs bija ar Jozua, un viņa slava izpaudās pa visu zemi.
