Judges 15
1 Then, after some time, when the days of the wheat harvest were near, Samson arrived, intending to visit his wife, and he brought her a kid from the goats. And when he wanted to enter her bedroom, as usual, her father prohibited him, saying:
Un notikās pēc kādam dienām ap kviešu pļaujamo laiku, tad Simsons savu sievu apmeklēja ar kazlēnu un sacīja: es gribu iet pie savas sievas kambarī; bet viņas tēvs viņam neļāva iet kambarī.
2 “I thought that you would hate her, and therefore I gave her to your friend. But she has a sister, who is younger and more beautiful than she is. And she may be a wife for you, instead of her.”
Jo viņas tēvs sacīja: es domāju, ka tu nīdēdams viņu ienīsti, tāpēc es to tavam biedram esmu devis. Vai viņas jaunākā māsa nav skaistāka nekā viņa? Lai jel šī ir tava viņas vietā.
3 And Samson answered him: “From this day, there shall be no guilt for me against the Philistines. For I will do harm to you all.”
Tad Simsons uz tiem sacīja: šim brīdim es esmu nenoziedzīgs pie Fīlistiem, ja es tiem ļaunu darīšu.
4 And he went out and caught three hundred foxes. And he joined them tail to tail. And he tied torches between the tails.
Un Simsons aizgāja un gūstīja trīs simt lapsas un ņēma pagales un grieza asti pret asti un lika vienu pagali vidu starp divām astēm.
5 And setting these on fire, he released them, so that they might rush from place to place. And immediately they went into the grain fields of the Philistines, setting these on fire, both the grain that was already bound for carrying, and what was still standing on the stalk. These were completely burned up, so much so that the flame also consumed even the vineyards and the olive groves.
Un viņš tās pagales iededzināja ar uguni un tās palaida Fīlistu druvās, un iededzināja gan gubas, gan druvas, gan vīna dārzus, gan eļļas kokus.
6 And the Philistines said, “Who has done this thing?” And it was said: “Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite, because he took away his wife, and gave her to another. He has done these things.” And the Philistines went up and burned the woman as well as her father.
Tad tie Fīlisti sacīja: kas to ir darījis? Tad tapa sacīts: Simsons, tā Timnieša znots, tāpēc ka tas viņa sievu ņēmis un viņa biedrim devis. Tad Fīlisti nāca un sadedzināja viņu un viņas tēvu ar uguni.
7 And Samson said to them, “Even though you have done this, I will still fulfill vengeance against you, and then I will be quieted.”
Un Simsons uz tiem sacīja: ja jūs tā dariet, tad es pret jums atriebšos un tad tikai mitēšos.
8 And he struck them with a tremendous slaughter, so much so that, out of astonishment, they laid the calf of the leg upon the thigh. And descending, he lived in a cave of the rock at Etam.
Un viņš sita tos par pleciem un gurniem ar lielu sišanu; un viņš nogāja un dzīvoja Etama klints alā.
9 And so the Philistines, ascending into the land of Judah, made camp at the place which was later called Lehi, that is, the Jawbone, where their army spread out.
Tad Fīlisti aizgāja un apmeta lēģeri pret Jūdu un apmetās Liejā.
10 And some from the tribe of Judah said to them, “Why have you ascended against us?” And they responded, “We have come to bind Samson, and to repay him for what he has done to us.”
Un tie vīri no Jūda sacīja: kāpēc jūs pret mums esat cēlušies? Un tie sacīja: mēs esam nākuši, Simsonu saistīt, lai mēs viņam darām, kā viņš mums darījis.
11 Then three thousand men of Judah descended to the cave of the rock at Etam. And they said to Samson: “Do you not know that the Philistines rule over us? Why would you want to do this?” And he said to them, “As they have done to me, so I have done to them.”
Tad nonāca trīstūkstoš vīri no Jūda uz Etama klints alu un sacīja uz Simsonu: vai tu nezini, ka Fīlisti pār mums valda? Kāpēc tad tu mums to esi darījis? Un viņš uz tiem sacīja: kā tie man ir darījuši, tā es atkal tiem esmu darījis.
12 And they said to him, “We have come to bind you, and to deliver you into the hands of the Philistines.” And Samson said to them, “Swear and promise to me that you will not kill me.”
Un tie uz viņu sacīja: mēs esam nonākuši tevi saistīt un tevi nodot Fīlistu rokā. Un Simsons uz tiem sacīja: zvērējiet man, ka jūs mani negribat nokaut.
13 They said: “We will not kill you. But we will deliver you tied.” And they bound him with two new cords. And they took him from the rock at Etam.
Un tie runāja uz viņu sacīdami: nē, bet mēs esam nākuši tevi saistīt un tevi viņu rokā nodot, bet mēs tevi nenokausim. Un tie viņu saistīja ar divām jaunām virvēm un to veda augšām no tās klints.
14 And when he had arrived at the place of the Jawbone, and the Philistines, shouting aloud, had met him, the Spirit of the Lord rushed upon him. And just as flax is usually consumed by a hint of fire, so were the ties with which he was bound broken and released.
Kad nu viņš līdz Liejai nāca, tad Fīlisti viņam gavilēja pretī, bet Tā Kunga Gars nāca pār viņu, un tās virves, kas bija ap viņa rokām, kļuva tā kā linu pavedieni, ko uguns ir apsvilinājis, un viņa saites trūka no viņa rokām.
15 And finding a jawbone which was laying there, that is, the jawbone of a donkey, snatching it up, he put to death a thousand men with it.
Un viņš atrada jaunu ēzeļa žokļa kaulu, un izstiepa savu roku un to ņēma un ar to nosita tūkstoš vīrus.
16 And he said, “With the jawbone of a donkey, with the jaw of the colt of a donkey, I have destroyed them, and I have struck down a thousand men.”
Un Simsons sacīja: ar ēzeļa žokļa kaulu vienu pulku, divus pulkus, ar ēzeļa žokļa kaulu nokāvu tūkstoš vīrus.
17 And when he had completed these words, singing, he threw the jawbone from his hand. And called the name of that place Ramath-Lehi, which is translated as ‘the elevation of the jawbone.’
Un kad viņš bija izrunājis, tad viņš nometa to žokļa kaulu no savas rokas un nosauca to vietu RamatLieja (žokļa kaula kalns).
18 And being very thirsty, he cried out to the Lord, and he said: “You have given, to the hand of your servant, this very great salvation and victory. But see that I am dying of thirst, and so I will fall into the hands of the uncircumcised.”
Un viņš bija ļoti izslāpis un piesauca To Kungu un sacīja: Tu caur Sava kalpa roku šo lielo pestīšanu esi devis, un nu man aiz slāpēm jāmirst un jākrīt šo neapgraizīto rokā.
19 And so the Lord opened a large tooth in the jawbone of the donkey, and water went out from it. And having drank it, his spirit was revived, and he recovered his strength. For this reason, the name of that place was called ‘the Spring called forth from the jawbone,’ even to the present day.
Tad Dievs pāršķēla kādu dobumu, kas bija Liejā; tad ūdens no tā izgāja, un viņš dzēra. Un viņa gars griezās atpakaļ, un viņš atspirga; tāpēc viņš to vietu nosauca Piesaucēja avotu, kas ir Liejā līdz šai dienai.
20 And he judged Israel, in the days of the Philistines, for twenty years.
Un viņš tiesāja Israēli Fīlistu laikā divdesmit gadus.
