Joshua 7
1 Yahweh had commanded that all the things [that they had captured in Jericho] should be [destroyed to show that they belong] to him. But there was a man from the tribe of Judah named Achan. He was the son of Carmi and grandson of Zabdi and great-grandson of Zerah. He disobeyed [what] Yahweh [had commanded] and took for himself some of those things. So Yahweh was very angry with the Israelis.
Bet Israēla bērni noziedzās pie tā izdeldējamā, jo Akans, Karmus dēls, tas bija Zabdus, tas Zerus dēls no Jūda cilts, ņēma no tā izdeldējamā. Tad Tā Kunga bardzība iedegās pret Israēla bērniem.
2 Joshua told some of his men to go from Jericho to Ai [town], which was east of Bethel [city] and near Beth-Aven [town]. He said to them, “Go to Ai and (spy out the area/see what the area is like).” So the men went.
Kad nu Jozuas izsūtīja vīrus no Jērikus uz Aju pie Bet-Avenas, no Bēteles pret rītiem, un uz tiem runāja sacīdams: noejat un izlūkojiet to zemi,
3 When they returned to Joshua they said, “There are only a few people in Ai. So we do not need to send all of our soldiers to defeat them. Send 2.000 or 3,000 men to attack them. That will be enough.”
Tad tie vīri nogāja un izlūkoja Aju, un griezās atpakaļ pie Jozuas un uz to sacīja: lai visi ļaudis nenoiet, bet lai kādi divtūkstoš vai trīstūkstoš vīri noiet un Aju kauj, neapgrūtini visus ļaudis, jo viņu tur ir maz.
4 So about 3,000 Israeli men went [to attack Ai]. But the men of Ai defeated them badly.
Tad no tiem ļaudīm cēlās uz turieni trīstūkstoš vīri, bet tiem bija jābēg priekš Ajas vīriem.
5 They killed about 36 Israelis and chased the rest of Israeli men from the city gate to the bottom of the hill. When the other Israelis saw that this had happened, they became very discouraged.
Un Ajas vīri apkāva no tiem trīsdesmit un sešus vīrus un dzinās tiem pakaļ no vārtiem līdz Zabarim, un tos sakāva pakalnē. Tad to ļaužu sirds izkusa un palika kā ūdens.
6 Joshua and the other Israeli leaders tore their clothes [because they were very sad about being defeated]. They prostrated themselves on the ground in front of [the Sacred Tent in which was] the sacred chest. They stayed there until that evening. They also threw dirt on their heads [to show that they were very sad about what had happened].
Un Jozuas saplēsa savas drēbes un metās zemē uz savu vaigu priekš Tā Kunga šķirsta līdz pat vakaram, viņš un Israēla vecaji, un tie kaisīja pīšļus uz savām galvām.
7 Then Joshua prayed and said, “Lord God, you brought us Israelis [safely] across the Jordan River. So why are you now allowing the Amor people-group to defeat us [RHQ]? [This would not have happened] if we had stayed on the other side of the Jordan River!
Un Jozuas sacīja: ak Kungs, Dievs! Kāpēc tu šiem ļaudīm esi licis iet caur Jardāni, mūs dodams Amoriešu rokās, ka tie mūs izdeldē? Ak, kaut mēs mierā būtu palikuši viņpus Jardānes.
8 Lord, we Israelis have been defeated by our enemies, so I do not know what to say now [RHQ].
Ak Kungs, ko lai saku, kad nu Israēls muguru griež saviem ienaidniekiem?
9 The Canaan people-group and all the other people who are living in this land will hear about this. Then they will surround us and kill all of us! Then what will you do (to defend your reputation [MTY]/to show that you are a powerful God)?”
Kad Kanaānieši un visi zemes iedzīvotāji to dzirdēs, tad tie mūs apstās visapkārt un izdeldēs mūsu vārdu no zemes. Ko tad Tu darīsi Sava lielā Vārda dēļ?
10 But Yahweh said to Joshua, “Stand up! Stop lying there with your face on the ground [RHQ]!
Tad Tas Kungs sacīja uz Jozua: celies, kāpēc tu tā guli uz sava vaiga?
11 You Israelis have sinned! You have disobeyed the commands that I told you to obey. [One of] your men has taken some of the things that I told you to destroy. He has stolen them and taken them for himself and lied [about it].
Israēls ir apgrēkojies un arī pārkāpis Manu derību, ko Es tiem esmu pavēlējis; tie ir arī ņēmuši no tā izdeldējamā un ir zaguši un slēpuši un to ir likuši pie savas mantas.
12 That is why you Israelis have been unable to be strong when you went to attack your enemies. That is why you have run away from them. And now you yourselves may be destroyed. If you do not do as I commanded you and destroy everything [that you captured in Jericho] I will not help you any more!”
Tāpēc Israēla bērni nevar pastāvēt priekš saviem ienaidniekiem, tiem bēdzin jābēg no saviem ienaidniekiem, jo tie ir izdeldējami. Es nebūšu vairs ar jums, ja jūs to, kas izdeldējams, no sava vidus neizdeldēsiet.
13 “Now go and tell this to the people: ‘Tomorrow you must [perform the rituals that will] cause yourselves to become acceptable to Yahweh again. Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship], says that one of you has kept things that he told you to destroy. You will never defeat your enemies until you get rid of those things.
Celies, svētī tos ļaudis un saki: svētījaties uz rītdienu, jo tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs: izdeldējama lieta ir tavā vidū, Israēl; tu nevari pastāvēt priekš saviem ienaidniekiem, tiekams tu nebūsi izdeldējis no sava vidus to izdeldējamo.
14 ‘Tomorrow morning you must present yourselves before Yahweh, tribe by tribe. Then Yahweh will indicate to which tribe [the man who took those things belongs]. Then Yahweh will indicate to which clan from that tribe [the guilty man belongs]. Then Yahweh will indicate to which family he belongs. And then he will indicate which person [in that family took those things].
Rītā agri nākat priekšā pēc savām ciltīm, un tā cilts, ko Tas Kungs uzrādīs, lai nāk priekšā pēc saviem radiem, un tas rads, ko Tas Kungs uzrādīs, lai nāk priekšā pēc savām saimēm, un tā saime, ko Tas Kungs uzrādīs, lai nāk priekšā pēc saviem vīriem.
15 Then the one who has taken some of the things that should have been destroyed will be destroyed in a fire. And everything he owns will be destroyed with him, because he has disobeyed the command that Yahweh gave us and has done something that is disgraceful to us Israeli people.’”
Un kas taps atrasts ar to izdeldējamo, to būs sadedzināt ar uguni, līdz ar visu, kas tam pieder, tāpēc ka viņš pārkāpis Tā Kunga derību, un tāpēc ka viņš kauna lietu darījis iekš Israēla.
16 Early the next morning, Joshua told all the Israeli people to stand before the Sacred Tent, tribe by tribe. [When they did that], Yahweh indicated that a man from the tribe of Judah [was the one who had taken the things].
Tad Jozuas cēlās no rīta agri un veda priekšā Israēli pēc viņu ciltīm, - tad Jūda cilts tapa uzrādīta.
17 Then the clans of Judah presented themselves, and Yahweh indicated that someone from the clan of Zerah was the guilty one. Then the families of Zerah’s clan presented themselves, and Yahweh indicated that someone from the family of Zabdi [was the guilty one].
Un kad viņš Jūda cilti veda priekšā, tad tapa uzrādīts Zeraiešu rads, un kad Zeraiešu radu veda priekšā pēc tiem saimniekiem, tad Zabdus tapa uzrādīts.
18 Then Joshua told the men from that family to present themselves. And Yahweh indicated that Achan was guilty.
Kad šo saimi veda priekšā pēc tiem vīriem, tad Akans tapa uzrādīts, Karmus dēls, tas bija Zabdus, tas Zerus dēls no Jūda cilts.
19 Then Joshua said to Achan, “Son, tell the truth [IDM]. Confess to Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship, what you have done]. And tell me what you did, and do not try to (conceal anything/prevent me from knowing what you did).”
Tad Jozuas sacīja uz Akanu: mans dēls, dod jel Tam Kungam, Israēla Dievam, godu un dod Viņam slavu un stāsti man jel, ko tu esi darījis, un neslēpi to man.
20 Achan replied, “It is true. I have sinned against Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship].
Tad Akans atbildēja Jozuam un sacīja: tiešām, es esmu apgrēkojies pret To Kungu, Israēla Dievu, un esmu tā un tā darījis.
21 Among the things [in Jericho] that I saw was a beautiful coat from Babylonia. I also saw 200 pieces of silver and some gold that weighed as much as 50 pieces of silver. I wanted those things very much for myself, so I took them. I buried them all in the ground under my tent. You will find them there. The silver is buried under the other things.”
Jo es ieraudzīju pie laupījuma vienu skaistu Babiloniešu mēteli un divsimt sudraba sēķeļus un vienu zelta sprādzi, tā svēra piecdesmit sēķeļus, un es tās lietas iekāroju un tās ņēmu, un redzi, tās manā teltī ir paslēptas zemē un tas sudrabs tur apakšā.
22 So Joshua sent some men [to find those things]. They ran to Achan’s tent and found all the things hidden there.
Tad Jozuas sūtīja vīrus un tie skrēja uz to telti, un redzi, tas bija apslēpts viņa teltī, un tas sudrabs tur apakšā.
23 The men brought them all out of the tent and took them to Joshua and the rest of the Israeli people. Then they spread/laid them out on the ground, where Yahweh could see them.
Un tie to izņēma no tās telts un atnesa pie Jozuas un pie visiem Israēla bērniem un to izbēra Tā Kunga priekšā.
24 Then Joshua and the rest of the people led Achan down to the valley. They also took down there the silver, the coat, the gold, Achan’s [wife and] sons and daughters, and his cattle and donkeys and sheep, and his tent, and everything else that he owned.
Tad Jozuas un viss Israēls līdz ar viņu ņēma Akanu, Zerus dēlu, un to sudrabu un to mēteli un to zelta sprādzi un viņa dēlus un viņa meitas un viņa vēršus un viņa ēzeļus un viņa sīkos lopus un viņa telti un visu, kas tam bija, un tos veda uz Ahora ieleju.
25 Joshua said, “(I do not know why you caused so much trouble for us/You have caused a lot of trouble for us) [RHQ], but now Yahweh will cause trouble for you.” Then all the people threw stones at Achan and his family until they all died. Then the people burned their corpses.
Un Jozuas sacīja: kā tu mūs esi apbēdinājis, tā tev Tas Kungs šodien apbēdinās; un viss Israēls to akmeņiem nomētāja un tos sadedzināja ar uguni un uzkrāva pār tiem akmeņus.
26 They piled rocks over [the ashes of] their [corpses], and those rocks are still there. That is why that valley is called Trouble Valley. After that, Yahweh was no longer angry [with the Israeli people].
Un tie uzcēla pār tiem lielu akmeņu kopu, kas stāv līdz šai dienai. Tā Tas Kungs atgriezās no Savas bardzības karstuma; tādēļ tās vietas vārds top nosaukts Ahora ieleja līdz šai pašai dienai.
