Otra Laiku 13
1 Ķēniņa Jerobeama astoņpadsmitā gadā Abija palika par ķēniņu pār Jūdu.
Abijah became king of Judah in the eighteenth year of the reign of Jeroboam.
2 Viņš valdīja trīs gadus Jeruzālemē, un viņa mātei bija vārds Mikaja, Uriēļa meita no Ģibejas. Un karš cēlās starp Abiju un Jerobeamu.
He reigned in Jerusalem for three years. His mother's name was Micaiah, daughter of Uriel—she was from Gibeah. Abijah and Jeroboam were at war.
3 Un Abija taisījās uz karu ar varenu kara spēku, ar četrsimt tūkstoš izlasītiem vīriem. Un Jerobeams taisījās pret viņu uz karu ar astoņsimt tūkstoš izlasītiem stipriem kara vīriem.
Abijah went out to fight with an army of 400,000 brave warriors, while Jeroboam opposed him with his army of 800,000 chosen warriors of great strength.
4 Un Abija uzkāpa uz Cemaraim kalnu Efraīma kalnos un sacīja: klausiet mani, Jerobeam un viss Israēl.
Abijah stood on Mount Zemaraim, in the hill country of Ephraim, and said, “Listen to me, Jeroboam and all of Israel!
5 Vai jums nav zināms, ka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs, valdību pār Israēli devis Dāvidam uz mūžīgiem laikiem, ir viņam, ir viņa dēliem caur sāls (neiznīkstamu) derību?
Don't you understand that the Lord, the God of Israel, gave the kingdom of Israel to David and his descendants forever by a binding agreement?
6 Taču Jerobeams, Nebata dēls, Salamana Dāvida dēla, kalps, sacēlis dumpi pret savu kungu!
Yet Jeroboam, son of Nebat, just a servant of Solomon, son of David, had the audacity to rebel against his master.
7 Un pie viņa sapulcējušies nelieši, netikli ļaudis, un pret Rekabeamu, Salamana dēlu, palikuši stipri, kamēr Rekabeams vēl bija jauns un tam bija bailīga sirds, ka pret viņiem nevarēja turēties.
Then some good-for-nothing evil men gathered round him and defied Rehoboam, son of Solomon, when he was young and inexperienced, and couldn't confront them.
8 Un nu jūs domājat stipri būt pret Tā Kunga valstību Dāvida dēlu rokā; jūs gan esat liels pulks, bet pie jums ir zelta teļi, ko Jerobeams jums cēlis par dieviem.
Now do you really think you can oppose the kingdom of the Lord, held by David's descendants? You may be a large horde, and have with you the golden calves that Jeroboam made for you as gods.
9 Vai jūs Tā Kunga priesterus, Ārona dēlus, tos Levitus, neesat izdzinuši un neesat sev priesterus cēluši, kā pasaules tautas? Ikviens, kas nāk savu roku pildīdams ar jaunu vērsi un septiņiem auniem, tas top par priesteri tādiem, kas nav dievi.
But didn't you drive out the priests of the Lord, Aaron's descendants, and the Levites, and make priests for yourselves just like people in other nations do? Now anyone who wants to can come and dedicate himself, sacrificing a young bull and seven rams, and he can become a priest of things that really are not gods.
10 Bet ar mums ir Tas Kungs, mūsu Dievs, un mēs Viņu neesam atstājuši, un tie priesteri, kas Tam Kungam kalpo, ir Ārona dēli, un Leviti savā kalpošanā.
But for us, the Lord is our God! We have not abandoned him. We have priests serving the Lord who are descendants of Aaron, and we have Levites who help them in their ministry.
11 Un tie Tam Kungam iededzina dedzināmos upurus ik rītu un ik vakaru, arī saldas kvēpināmās zāles, un liek to (svēto) maizi uz to šķīsto galdu; un tur ir tas zelta lukturis ar saviem eļļas lukturīšiem, kas ik vakaru top iededzināti; jo mēs turam Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, likumus, bet jūs Viņu esat atstājuši.
Morning and evening they present burnt offerings and burn fragrant incense to the Lord. They place the rows of showbread on the purified table, and light the lamps of the gold lampstand every evening. We are doing what the Lord our God told us to do, while you have abandoned him.
12 Un nu redzi, Dievs ir ar mums pašā priekšā un Viņa priesteri ar skanīgām bazūnēm, bazūnēt pret jums. Jūs, Israēla bērni nekarojat ar To Kungu, savu tēvu Dievu; jo tas jums neizdosies.
God is leading us! His priests blow their trumpets to go into battle against you. People of Israel, don't fight against the Lord, the God of your fathers, for you won't win!”
13 Bet Jerobeams karavīriem lika slepeni apiet apkārt, tiem uzbrukt mugurā, un tā viņi stāvēja Jūda priekšā, un tie glūnētāji viņiem mugurā.
But Jeroboam had sent troops around to attack from the rear, so that while he and the main force was in front of Judah, the ambush was behind them.
14 Kad nu Jūda atpakaļ skatījās, redzi, tad karš tiem bija priekšā un mugurā. Un tie piesauca To Kungu, un priesteri bazūnēja ar bazūnēm.
Judah turned around and realized that they were having to fight front and rear. They cried out to the Lord for help. Then the priests blew their trumpets,
15 Un Jūda vīri kliedza. Un kad Jūda vīri tā kliedza, tad Dievs kāva Jerobeamu un visu Israēli Abijas un Jūda priekšā,
and the men of Judah gave a loud shout. When they shouted, God struck Jeroboam and all Israel in front of Abijah and Judah.
16 Un Israēla bērni bēga Jūda priekšā, un Dievs tos deva viņu rokā,
The Israelites ran away from Judah, and God handed them over to Judah, defeated.
17 Un Abija ar saviem ļaudīm tos sakāva lielā kaušanā, un no Israēla krita nokauti piecsimt tūkstoš izlasīti vīri.
Abijah and his men hit them hard, and 500,000 of Israel's best warriors were killed.
18 Tā Israēla bērni tanī laikā tapa pazemoti, bet Jūda bērni tapa vareni, tāpēc ka tie bija paļāvušies uz To Kungu, savu tēvu Dievu.
So the Israelites were subdued at that time, and the people of Judah were victorious because they relied on the Lord, the God of their forefathers.
19 Un Abija dzinās Jerobeamam pakaļ un ieņēma viņa pilsētas: Bēteli ar viņas miestiem un Jēzanu ar viņas miestiem, un Efronu ar viņas miestiem.
Abijah chased Jeroboam and captured some towns from him: Bethel, Jeshanah, and Ephron, along with their villages.
20 Un Jerobeams vairs netika pie spēka Abijas laikā, bet Tas Kungs to sita, un tas nomira.
Jereboam never regained his power during Abijah's reign. Eventually the Lord struck him down and he died.
21 Un Abija palika spēcīgs un apņēma četrpadsmit sievas un dzemdināja divdesmit divus dēlus un sešpadsmit meitas.
But Abijah grew stronger and stronger. He married fourteen wives and had twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters.
22 Un kas vēl par Abiju stāstāms, viņa ceļi un viņa vārdi, tie rakstīti pravieša Idus stāstos.
The rest of what Abijah did—what he said and what he accomplished—is recorded in the history written by Iddo the Prophet.
