Otra Laiku 15
1 Tad Dieva Gars nāca uz Azariju, Odeda dēlu.
And the spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded:
2 Un tas izgāja Asam pretī un uz to sacīja: klausiet mani, Asa un viss Jūda un Benjamin. Tas Kungs ir ar jums, kamēr jūs esat ar Viņu, un ja jūs Viņu meklēsiet, Viņš no jums taps atrasts. Bet ja jūs Viņu atstāsiet, tad Viņš jūs arīdzan atstās.
and he went out to meet Asa, and said unto him, Hear ye me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin: the LORD is with you, while ye be with him; and if ye seek him he will be found of you; but if ye forsake him he will forsake you.
3 Un daudz dienas būs iekš Israēla bez īsta Dieva, bez priestera, kas māca, un bez bauslības.
Now for long seasons Israel hath been without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law:
4 Taču ja tie savās bēdās atgriezīsies pie Tā Kunga, Israēla Dieva, un Viņu meklēs, tad Viņš no tiem taps atrasts.
But when in their distress they turned unto the LORD, the God of Israel, and sought him, he was found of them.
5 Un tanīs laikos labi neklāsies ne tam, kas iziet, ne tam, kas ieiet, bet daudz briesmu būs pār zemes iedzīvotājiem,
And in those times there was no peace to him that went out, nor to him that came in, but great vexations were upon all the inhabitants of the lands.
6 Tā ka tauta celsies pret tautu, pilsēta sadauzīs pilsētu, jo Dievs tos iztrūcinās ar visādām bēdām.
And they were broken in pieces, nation against nation, and city against city: for God did vex them with all adversity.
7 Bet jūs esat droši, un jūsu rokas lai nenogurst, jo jūsu darbam būs sava alga.
But be ye strong, and let not your hands be slack: for your work shall be rewarded.
8 Kad nu Asa dzirdēja šos vārdus un pravieša Odeda(dēla) sludināšanu, tad viņš ņēmās drošu prātu un izdeldēja tās negantības no visas Jūda un Benjamina zemes un no tām pilsētām, ko bija uzņēmis Efraīma kalnos, un atjaunoja Tā Kunga altāri, kas priekš Tā Kunga priekšnama stāvēja.
And when Asa heard these words, and the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he took courage, and put away the abominations out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the cities which he had taken from the hill country of Ephraim; and he renewed the altar of the LORD, that was before the porch of the LORD.
9 Un viņš sapulcināja visu Jūdu un Benjaminu un tos, kas pie viņiem piemita, no Efraīma un Manasus un no Sīmeana; jo no Israēla tam daudzi pieķērās, kad tie redzēja, ka Tas Kungs, viņa Dievs bija ar viņu.
And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and them that sojourned with them out of Ephraim and Manasseh, and out of Simeon: for they fell to him out of Israel in abundance, when they saw that the LORD his God was with him.
10 Un tie sapulcējās Jeruzālemē trešā mēnesī, Asas valdīšanas piecpadsmitā gadā,
So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.
11 Un upurēja Tam Kungam tai dienā no tā laupījuma, ko tie bija atveduši, septiņsimt vēršus un septiņtūkstoš avis.
And they sacrificed unto the LORD in that day, of the spoil which they had brought, seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep.
12 Un tie atjaunoja to derību, meklēt To Kungu, savu tēvu Dievu no visas savas sirds un no visas savas dvēseles;
And they entered into the covenant to seek the LORD, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and with all their soul;
13 Bet visus, kas nemeklē To Kungu, Israēla Dievu, nokaut, tā mazus kā lielus, tā vīrus kā sievas.
and that whosoever would not seek the LORD, the God of Israel, should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.
14 Un tie Tam Kungam zvērēja ar stipru balsi un gavilēšanu, arī ar trumetēm un bazūnēm.
And they sware unto the LORD with a loud voice; and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets.
15 Un viss Jūda priecājās par šo zvērestu, jo tie no visas sirds bija zvērējuši un meklēja Viņu ar visu prātu, un Viņš no tiem likās atrasties, un Tas Kungs tiem deva mieru visapkārt.
And all Judah rejoiced at the oath: for they had sworn with all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire; and he was found of them: and the LORD gave them rest round about.
16 Viņš arī nocēla Maēku, ķēniņa Asas vecmāti, no ķēniņienes goda, tāpēc ka tā bija taisījusi negantu elka bildi Ašerai, un Asa izdeldēja arī viņas elka bildi un to sadauzīja un sadedzināja pie Kidronas upes.
And also Maacah the mother of Asa the king, he removed her from being queen, because she had made an abominable image for an Asherah; and Asa cut down her image, and made dust of it, and burnt it at the brook Kidron.
17 Bet kalnu altāri netapa izdeldēti iekš Israēla, tikai Asas sirds bija skaidra visu viņa mūžu.
But the high places were not taken away out of Israel: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days.
18 Un viņš ienesa Dieva namā visas sava tēva svētītās dāvanas, un ko viņš pats bija svētījis, sudrabu un zeltu un traukus.
And he brought into the house of God the things that his father had dedicated, and that he himself had dedicated, silver, and gold, and vessels.
19 Un kara nebija līdz trīsdesmit piektam Asas valdīšanas gadam.
And there was no more war unto the five and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa.
