2 Kings 18
1 In the third year of Hoshea, the son of Elah, the king of Israel: Hezekiah, the son of Ahaz, reigned as king of Judah.
Un Hosejas, Elas dēla, Israēla ķēniņa, trešā gadā Hizkija, Ahaza, Jūda ķēniņa, dēls, palika par ķēniņu.
2 He was twenty-five years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Abi, the daughter of Zechariah.
Un viņš bija divdesmit pieci gadus vecs, kad palika par ķēniņu, un valdīja divdesmit deviņus gadus Jeruzālemē, un viņa mātei bija vārds Abi, Zaharijas meita.
3 And he did what was good before the Lord, in accord with all that his father David had done.
Un tas darīja, kas Tam Kungam labi patika, tāpat kā viņa tēvs Dāvids bija darījis.
4 He destroyed the high places, and he crushed the statues, and he cut down the sacred groves. And he broke apart the bronze serpent, which Moses had made. For even until that time, the sons of Israel were burning incense to it. And he called its name Nehushtan.
Tas nopostīja tos kalnu altārus un nolauzīja tos stabus un izdeldēja Astartes un sadragāja to vara čūsku, ko Mozus bija taisījis; jo līdz tam laikam Israēla bērni tai bija kvēpinājuši un to nosauca Neūstan (vara taisīta).
5 He hoped in the Lord, the God of Israel. And after him, there was no one similar to him, among all the kings of Judah, nor even among any of those who were before him.
Viņš uzticējās Tam Kungam, Israēla Dievam, un pēc viņa nebija otrs tāds kā viņš no visiem Jūda ķēniņiem, arī priekš viņa tāds nebija bijis.
6 And he clung to the Lord, and he did not withdraw from his footsteps, and he carried out his commandments, which the Lord had instructed to Moses.
Jo viņš pieķērās Tam Kungam un viņš no Tā neatkāpās un viņš turēja tos baušļus, ko Tas Kungs caur Mozu bija pavēlējis.
7 Therefore, the Lord was also with him. And he conducted himself wisely in all the things to which he went forth. Also, he rebelled against the king of the Assyrians, and he did not serve him.
Un Tas Kungs bija ar viņu, ka viss, kur viņš izgāja, labi izdevās. Viņš atkāpās arīdzan no Asīrijas ķēniņa un tam vairs nekalpoja.
8 He struck the Philistines as far as Gaza, and in all their borders, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city.
Viņš kāva arīdzan Fīlistus līdz Gazai un viņas robežām, gan pilīs, gan stiprās pilsētās.
9 In the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea, the son of Elah, the king of Israel: Shalmaneser, the king of the Assyrians, ascended to Samaria, and he fought against it,
Un ķēniņa Hizkijas ceturtā gadā, tas ir Hosejas, Elas dēla, Israēla ķēniņa, septītais gads, Salmanasers, Asīrijas ķēniņš, cēlās pret Samariju un apmeta lēģeri pret viņu.
10 and he seized it. For after three years, in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is, in the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Israel, Samaria was captured.
Un to uzņēma pēc trim gadiem, Hizkijas sestā gada, tas ir Hosejas, Israēla ķēniņa, devītais gads, - tad Samarija tapa uzņemta.
11 And the king of the Assyrians took away Israel into Assyria. And he located them in Halah and in Habor, at the rivers of Gozan, in the cities of the Medes.
Un Asīrijas ķēniņš aizveda Israēli uz Asīriju un tiem lika dzīvot Halahā un pie Haboras, Gozanas upes, un Medijas pilsētās,
12 For they did not listen to the voice of the Lord, their God. Instead, they transgressed his covenant. All that Moses, the servant of the Lord, had instructed, they would neither hear, nor do.
Tāpēc ka tie Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, balsij nebija klausījuši, bet viņa derību pārkāpuši, un visu, ko Mozus, Tā Kunga kalps, bija pavēlējis, un to nebija nedz klausījuši nedz darījuši.
13 In the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, Sennacherib, the king of the Assyrians, went up to all the fortified cities of Judah, and he captured them.
Bet ķēniņa Hizkijas četrpadsmitā gadā Sanheribs, Asīrijas ķēniņš, cēlās pret visām stiprām Jūda pilsētām un tās uzņēma.
14 Then Hezekiah, the king of Judah, sent messengers to the king of the Assyrians at Lachish, saying: “I have offended. Withdraw from me, and all that you will impose upon me, I will bear.” And so the king of the Assyrians levied a tax upon Hezekiah, the king of Judah, of three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold.
Tad Hizkija, Jūda ķēniņš, sūtīja pie Asīrijas ķēniņa uz Laķisu un lika sacīt: es esmu apgrēkojies, griezies atpakaļ no manis, es nesīšu, ko tu man uzliksi. Tad Asīrijas ķēniņš Hizkijam, Jūda ķēniņam, uzlika trīssimt talentus sudraba un trīsdesmit talentus zelta.
15 And Hezekiah gave all the silver that had been found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasuries of the king.
Un Hizkija deva visu sudrabu, kas atradās Tā Kunga namā un tā ķēniņa nama mantās.
16 At that time, Hezekiah broke apart the doors of the temple of the Lord, with the plates of gold which he had affixed to them. And he gave these to the king of the Assyrians.
Tanī laikā Hizkija noplēsa (to zeltu) no Tā Kunga nama durvīm un no tiem stabiem, ko Hizkija, Jūda ķēniņš, bija apkalis ar zeltu, un to deva Asīrijas ķēniņam.
17 Then the king of the Assyrians sent Tartan, and Rabsaris, and Rabshakeh, from Lachish, to king Hezekiah, with a powerful hand, to Jerusalem. And when they had ascended, they arrived in Jerusalem, and they stood beside the aqueduct of the upper pool, which is along the way of the fuller’s field.
Bet Asīrijas ķēniņš sūtīja Tartanu (augsto sargu), Rabsarisu (augsto valdoni) un Rabzaku (augsto dzērienu devēju) no Laķisas pie ķēniņa Hizkijas ar lielu karaspēku uz Jeruzālemi, un tie cēlās un gāja uz Jeruzālemi. Un kad tie bija cēlušies un nonākuši, tad tie nostājās pie augšēja dīķa ūdens grāvja, ceļa malā pie vadmalnieku tīruma.
18 And they called for the king. But there went out to them Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, the first ruler of the house, and Shebnah, the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the keeper of records.
Un tie sauca ķēniņu. Tad pie tiem izgāja nama uzraugs Elijaķims, Hilķijas dēls, un skrīveris Šebna un kanclers Joaks, Asafa dēls.
19 And Rabshakeh said to them: “Speak to Hezekiah: Thus says the great king, the king of the Assyrians: What is this faith, in which you strive?
Un Rabzakus uz tiem sacīja: sakāt jel Hizkijam: tā saka tas lielais ķēniņš, Asīrijas ķēniņš: kas tas tāds patvērums, uz ko tu paļaujies?
20 Perhaps, you have taken counsel, so that you would prepare yourself for battle. In whom do you trust, so that you would dare to rebel?
Tu saki tukšu vārdu, diezgan esot padoma un spēka uz karu. Uz ko tad tu paļaujies, ka tu no manis esi atkritis?
21 Do you hope in Egypt, that staff of a broken reed, which, if a man would lean upon it, breaking, it would pierce his hand? Such is Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, to all who would trust in him.
Nu redzi, tu paļaujies uz to salūzušo niedri, uz Ēģipti. Kas uz to atspiežas, tam tā ies rokā un to pārdurs. Tāds ir Faraons, Ēģiptes ķēniņš, visiem, kas uz viņu paļaujas.
22 But if you say to me: ‘We have faith in the Lord, our God.’ Is it not he, whose high places and altars Hezekiah has taken away? And did he not instruct Judah and Jerusalem: ‘You shall adore before this altar in Jerusalem?’
Bet ja jūs uz mani sakāt: mēs paļaujamies uz To Kungu, savu Dievu: vai tas nav, kam kalnus un altārus Hizkija ir nopostījis un sacījis uz Jūdu un Jeruzālemi: priekš šī altāra, kas ir Jeruzālemē, jums būs pielūgt?
23 Now therefore, cross over to my lord, the king of the Assyrians, and I will give to you two thousand horses, and we will see if you even have enough riders for them.
Nu tad, noderi ar manu kungu, Asīrijas ķēniņu, un es tev došu divtūkstoš zirgus, ja tev ir jātnieki, ko tiem likt virsū.
24 So how can you resist one prince from the least of my lord’s servants? Do you have faith in Egypt because of the chariots and horsemen?
Kā tad tu varēsi atsist atpakaļ vienu pašu virsnieku no mana kunga vismazākiem kalpiem? Bet tu paļaujies uz Ēģipti, ratu un jātnieku dēļ.
25 Is it not by the will of the Lord that I have chosen to ascend to this place, so that I may destroy it? The Lord said to me: ‘Ascend to this land, and destroy it.’”
Vai tad nu es bez Tā Kunga esmu cēlies pret šo vietu, to izpostīt? Tas Kungs uz mani sacījis: celies pret šo zemi un izposti to.
26 Then Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, and Shebnah, and Joah, said to Rabshakeh: “We beseech you, that you may speak to us, your servants, in Syriac. For we understand that language to some extent. And do not speak to us in the Jews’ language, in the hearing of the people, who are upon the wall.”
Tad Elijaķims, Hilķijas dēls, un Šebna un Joaks sacīja uz Rabzaku: runā jel ar saviem kalpiem sīriski, - mēs to gan protam - un nerunā ar mums jūdiski priekš šo ļaužu ausīm, kas ir uz mūra.
27 And Rabshakeh responded to them, saying: “Has my lord sent me to your lord and to you, so that I may speak these words, and not instead to the men who are sitting upon the wall, so that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own urine with you?”
Bet Rabzakus uz tiem sacīja: vai mans Kungs mani sūtījis pie tava kunga un pie tevis, šos vārdus runāt? Vai ne pie tiem vīriem, kas sēž uz mūra, kam līdz ar jums būs jāēd savi sūdi un jādzer savi mīzali.
28 And so, Rabshakeh stood up, and he exclaimed in a great voice, in the Jews’ language, and he said: “Listen to the words of the great king, the king of the Assyrians.
Un Rabzakus nostājās un sauca ar stipru balsi jūdiski un runāja un sacīja: klausāties tā lielā ķēniņa, Asīrijas ķēniņa, vārdus.
29 Thus says the king: Let not Hezekiah lead you astray. For he will not be able to rescue you from my hand.
Tā saka ķēniņš: lai Hizkija jūs neapmāna, jo viņš jūs nevarēs izglābt no manas rokas.
30 And do not let him give you faith in the Lord, saying: ‘The Lord will rescue and free us, and this city will not be delivered into the hand of the king of the Assyrians.’
Lai arī Hizkija jums nedara cerību uz To Kungu sacīdams: tiešām, Tas Kungs mūs izglābs un šī pilsēta netaps dota Asīrijas ķēniņa rokā.
31 Do not choose to listen to Hezekiah. For thus says the king of the Assyrians: Do with me what is for your own good, and come out to me. And each one of you will eat from his own vine, and from his own fig tree. And you shall drink water from your own wells,
Neklausāties uz Hizkiju. Jo tā saka Asīrijas ķēniņš: deriet ar mani mieru un nāciet pie manis ārā, tad ikviens ēdīs no sava vīna koka un ikviens no sava vīģes koka un ikviens dzers ūdeni no savas akas,
32 until I arrive and transfer you into a land, similar to your own land, a fruitful and fertile land of wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olives and oil and honey. And you will live, and not die. Do not choose to listen to Hezekiah, who deceives you, saying: ‘The Lord will free us.’
Kamēr es nākšu un jūs aizvedīšu tādā zemē, kāda ir jūsu zeme, labības un vīna zeme, maizes un vīna dārzu zeme, eļļas koku, eļļas un medus zeme, - tad jūs paliksiet dzīvi un nemirsiet. Bet Hizkijam neklausiet, jo viņš jūs pieviļ sacīdams: Tas Kungs mūs izpestīs.
33 Have any of the gods of the nations freed their land from the hand of the king of Assyria?
Vai gan pagānu dievi ikviens savu zemi izglābuši no Asiriešu ķēniņa rokas?
34 Where is the god of Hamath, and of Arpad? Where is the god of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and of Avva? Have they freed Samaria from my hand?
Kur ir Hamatas un Arpadas dievi? Kur ir Sefarvaimas, Enas un Ivas dievi? Vai tie gan izglābuši Samariju no manas rokas?
35 Which ones among all the gods of the lands have rescued their region from my hand, so that the Lord would be able to rescue Jerusalem from my hand?”
Kurš no visas pasaules dieviem izglābis savu zemi no manas rokas? Kā tad Tas Kungs Jeruzālemi izglābs no manas rokas?
36 But the people were silent, and they did not respond at all to him. For indeed, they had received an instruction from the king that they should not respond to him.
Bet tie ļaudis cieta klusu un viņam neatbildēja neviena vārda, jo ķēniņš bija pavēlējis un sacījis: jums nebūs viņam atbildēt.
37 And Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, the first ruler of the house, and Shebnah, the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the keeper of records, went to Hezekiah with their garments torn. And they reported to him the words of Rabshakeh.
Tad nama uzraugs Elijaķims, Hilķijas dēls, un skrīveris Šebna un kanclers Joaks, Asapa dēls, nāca pie Hizkijas ar saplēstām drēbēm un viņam stāstīja Rabzakus vārdus.
