< Nehemiah 6 >

1 And when Sanballat, and Tobiah, and Geshem the Arabian, and the rest of our enemies heard that I had built the wall, and that there were no more breaches therein, (though at that time I had not set vp the doores vpon the gates)
Un notikās, kad Sanbalats un Tobija un Arābs Gešems un mūsu citi ienaidnieki dzirdēja, ka mēs to mūri bijām uzcēluši un iekš tā caurums neatlikās, (jebšu es līdz šim durvis vēl nebiju iecēlis vārtos),
2 Then sent Sanballat and Geshem vnto me, saying, Come thou that we may meete together in the villages in the plaine of Ono: and they thought to doe me euill.
Tad Sanbalats un Gešems pie manis sūtīja un lika sacīt: nāc, saiesim kopā Onus klajuma ciemos. Bet tie domāja, man ļaunu darīt.
3 Therefore I sent messengers vnto them, saying, I haue a great worke to doe, and I can not come downe: why should the worke cease, whiles I leaue it, and come downe to you?
Un es sūtīju vēstnešus pie tiem un liku sacīt: man liels darbs darāms, ka nevaru nonākt; kāpēc šim darbam būs kavēties, ka es to pamestu un pie jums nonāktu?
4 Yet they sent vnto me foure times after this sort. And I answered them after the same maner.
Un tie gan četras reizes pie manis sūtīja ar šo pašu valodu, un es sūtīju pie tiem atpakaļ ar to pašu valodu.
5 Then sent Sanballat his seruant after this sorte vnto me the fift time, with an open letter in his hand,
Tad Sanbalats piektā reizē pie manis sūtīja savu puisi tāpat ar neaiztaisītu grāmatu viņa rokā. Iekš tās bija rakstīts:
6 Wherein was written, It is reported among the heathen, and Gashmu hath sayd it, that thou and the Iewes thinke to rebel, for the which cause thou buildest the wall and thou wilt bee their King according to these wordes.
Ļaudis dzird, un Gešems saka, ka tu ar tiem Jūdiem domā atkāpties un tāpēc to mūri uztaisi, un ka tu viņiem gribi būt par ķēniņu, - tā runā, -
7 Thou hast also ordeyned the Prophets to preach of thee at Ierusalem, saying, There is a King in Iudah: and nowe according to these wordes it shall come to the Kings eares: come now therefore, and let vs take counsell together.
Ka tu arī praviešus iecēlis, kas lai izsauc par tevi Jeruzālemē un saka: viņš ir ķēniņš iekš Jūda. Un nu ķēniņš tādu valodu dzirdēs; nāc tad jel un lai mēs kopā sarunājamies.
8 Then I sent vnto him, saying, It is not done according to these wordes that thou sayest: for thou feynest them of thine owne heart.
Bet es sūtīju pie viņa sacīdams: no tā, ko tu runā, nekas nav noticis; no savas sirds tu to esi izdomājis.
9 For all they afrayed vs, saying, Their handes shalbe weakened from the worke, and it shall not be done: nowe therefore incourage thou me.
Jo visi tie mūs baidīja un sacīja: viņu rokām būs no tā darba atstāties, ka tas netop darīts. Un nu, stiprini Tu, (ak Dievs), manas rokas.
10 And I came to the house of Shemaiah the sonne of Delaiah the sonne of Mehetabeel, and he was shut vp, and he said, Let vs come together into the house of God in the middes of the Temple, and shut the doores of the Temple: for they will come to slay thee: yea, in the night will they come to kill thee.
Kad es nu nācu Šemajas namā, - tas bija Delajas, Mehetabeēļa dēla, dēls, (bet viņš bija ieslēdzies), tad viņš sacīja: sanāksim Dieva namā, pašā Dieva nama vidū, un lai mēs Dieva nama durvis aizslēdzam, jo tie nāks, tevi nokaut, pašā naktī tie nāks, tevi nokaut.
11 Then I said, Should such a man as I, flee? Who is he, being as I am, that would go into the Temple to liue? I will not goe in.
Bet es sacīju: vai tādam vīram, kā es, būs bēgt? Vai tādam, kā es, Dieva namā būs iet, lai paliktu dzīvs? Es neiešu.
12 And loe, I perceiued, that God had not sent him, but that he pronounced this prophecie against me: for Tobiah and Sanballat had hired him.
Jo redzi, es manīju, ka Dievs viņu nebija sūtījis. Bet viņš runāja šo sludināšanu uz mani, tāpēc ka Tobija un Sanebalats viņu bija derējuši.
13 Therefore was he hyred, that I might be afrayde, and doe thus, and sinne, and that they might haue an euill report that they might reproche me.
Viņš bija derēts, lai es izbīstos un tā daru un apgrēkojos, ka tie kādu ļaunu slavu atrastu, ar ko mani varētu nievāt.
14 My God, remember thou Tobiah, and Sanballat according vnto these their workes, and Noadiah the Prophetesse also, and the rest of the Prophets that would haue put me in feare.
Piemini, mans Dievs, Tobiju un Sanbalatu pēc šiem darbiem un arī pravieti Noadiju un tos citus praviešus, kas ir meklējuši, mani darīt bailīgu!
15 Notwithstanding the wall was finished on the fiue and twentieth day of Elul, in two and fiftie dayes.
Tad nu tas mūris tapa pabeigts Elula mēneša divdesmit piektā dienā, piecdesmit divās dienās.
16 And when all our enemies heard thereof, euen all the heathen that were about vs, they were afraid, and their courage failed them: for they knew, that this worke was wrought by our God.
Un kad visi mūsu ienaidnieki to dzirdēja, tad visi apkārtējie pagāni bijās un viņu drošība zuda, jo tie samanīja, ka šis darbs ar mūsu Dieva palīgu bija padarīts.
17 And in these dayes were there many of the princes of Iudah, whose letters went vnto Tobiah, and those of Tobiah came vnto them.
Tanīs dienās arī daudz virsnieki no Jūda rakstīja grāmatas; tās tapa sūtītas pie Tobijas, un Tobija sūtīja atkal pie tiem.
18 For there were many in Iudah, that were sworne vnto him: for he was the sonne in lawe of Shechaniah, the sonne of Arah: and his sonne Iehonathan had the daughter of Meshullam, the sonne of Berechiah.
Jo daudzi iekš Jūda viņam bija zvērējuši, tāpēc ka tas bija Šehanijas, Arahus dēla, znots, un viņa dēls Jehohanans bija apņēmis Mešulama, Bereķijas dēla, meitu.
19 Yea, they spake in his praise before me, and tolde him my wordes, and Tobiah sent letters to put me in feare.
Tie runāja arīdzan labu par viņu manā priekšā, un manus vārdus tie nonesa pie viņa; tad Tobija sūtīja grāmatas, ka tas mani biedinātu.
