Otra Laiku 24
1 Joas bija septiņus gadus vecs, kad palika par ķēniņu, un valdīja četrdesmit gadus Jeruzālemē, un viņa mātei bija vārds Cibea, no Bēršebas.
Joas was seven years old when he began to reign: and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Sebia of Bersabee.
2 Un Joas darīja, kas Tam Kungam labi patika, kamēr priesteris Jojada dzīvoja.
And he did that which is good before the Lord all the days of Joiada the priest.
3 Un Jojada tam ņēma divas sievas, un tās dzemdināja dēlus un meitas.
And Joiada took for him two wives, by whom he had sons and daughters.
4 Pēc tam Joas apņēmās savā sirdī, atjaunot Tā Kunga namu.
After this Joas had a mind to repair the house of the Lord.
5 Un viņš sapulcināja priesterus un Levitus un uz tiem sacīja: izejiet Jūda pilsētās un sakrājiet naudu no visa Israēla, atkal apkopt sava Dieva namu gadu no gada; un steidzaties ar šo lietu. Bet Leviti nesteidzās.
And he assembled the priests, and the Levites, and said to them: Go out to the cities of Juda, and gather of all Israel money to repair the temple of your God, from year to year: and do this with speed: but the Levites were negligent.
6 Un ķēniņš aicināja augsto priesteri Jojadu, un uz to sacīja: kāpēc tu neesi raudzījis uz Levitiem, ka tiem no Jūda un Jeruzālemes bija sakrāt to meslu naudu, ko Mozus, Tā Kunga kalps, nospriedis, ka Israēla draudzei jādod priekš saiešanas telts?
And the king called Joiada the chief, and said to him: Why hast thou not taken care to oblige the Levites to bring in out of Juda and Jerusalem the money that was appointed by Moses the servant of the Lord for all the multitude of Israel to bring into the tabernacle of the testimony?
7 Jo bezdievīgā Atalija un viņas dēli Dieva namu postījuši, un visas svētās dāvanas no Tā Kunga nama izlietojuši Baāliem.
For that wicked woman Athalia, and her children have destroyed the house of God, and adorned the temple of Baal with all the things that had been dedicated in the temple of the Lord.
8 Tad ķēniņš pavēlēja taisīt šķirstu, un to likt ārā pie Tā Kunga nama vārtiem.
And the king commanded, and they made a chest: and set it by the gate of the house of the Lord on the outside.
9 Un Jūdā un Jeruzālemē izsauca, lai Tam Kungam atnes meslu naudu, ko Mozus, tas Dieva kalps, Israēlim tuksnesi bija nospriedis.
And they made a proclamation in Juda and Jerusalem, that every man should bring to the Lord the money which Moses the servant of God appointed for all Israel, in the desert.
10 Tad visi lielkungi un visi ļaudis priecājās un atnesa un iemeta tai šķirstā, kamēr tas tapa pilns.
And all the princes, and all the people rejoiced: and going In they contributed and cast so much into the chest of the Lord, that it was filled.
11 Kad nu bija laiks, Levitiem šķirstu atnest pie ķēniņa celtiem uzraugiem, un kad redzēja, ka daudz naudas bija iekšā, tad ķēniņa skrīveris, un augstā priestera uzraugs, nāca un iztukšoja to šķirstu, un to ņēma un atkal nonesa savā vietā; tā tie darīja ikdienas un sakrāja daudz naudas.
And when it was time to bring the chest before the king by the hands of the Levites, (for they saw there was much money, ) the king’s scribe, and he whom the high priest had appointed went in: and they poured out the money that was in the chest: and they carried back the chest to its place: and thus they did from day to day, and there was gathered an immense sum of money.
12 Un ķēniņš un Jojada to deva tiem darba vedējiem pie Tā Kunga nama darba, un tie saderēja akmeņu cirtējus un amatniekus, Tā Kunga namu atjaunot, arī dzelzs un vara kalējus, atkal uzkopt Tā Kunga namu.
And the king and Joiada gave it to those who were over the works of the house of the Lord: but they hired with it stonecutters, and artificers of every kind of work to repair the house of the Lord: and such as wrought in iron and brass, to uphold what began to be falling.
13 Un tie strādnieki darīja savu darbu un darbs veicās caur viņu roku, un tie Dieva namu atkal iztaisīja pareizi un to uzkopa.
And the workmen were diligent, and the breach of the walls was closed up by their hands, and they set up the house of the Lord in its former state, and made it stand firm.
14 Kad tie to nu bija pabeiguši, tad tie atnesa atlikušo naudu pie ķēniņa un Jojadas, un par to lika rīkus taisīt Tā Kunga namam, rīkus kalpošanai un upurēšanai un bļodas un zelta un sudraba traukus; un tie upurēja vienmēr dedzināmos upurus Tā Kunga namā, kamēr Jojada dzīvoja.
And when they had finished all the works, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Joiada: and with it were made vessels for the temple for the ministry, and for holocausts and bowls, and other vessels of gold and silver: and holocausts were offered in the house of the Lord continually all the days of Joiada.
15 Un Jojada palika vecs un bija savu laiku nodzīvojis un nomira; simts un trīsdesmit gadus viņš bija vecs, kad nomira.
But Joiada grew old and was full of days, and died when he was a hundred and thirty years old.
16 Un to apraka Dāvida pilī pie ķēniņiem, jo viņš Israēlim bija labu darījis, ir Dievam, ir viņa namam.
And they buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good to Israel, and to his house.
17 Bet kad Jojada bija nomiris, tad Jūda lielkungi nāca un metās zemē ķēniņa priekšā; un ķēniņš uz tiem klausījās.
And after the death of Joiada, the princes of Juda went in, and worshipped the king: and he was soothed by their services and hearkened to them.
18 Un tie atstāja Tā Kunga, savu tēvu Dieva, namu, un kalpoja Ašerām un elkiem. Tad dusmība nāca pār Jūdu un Jeruzālemi šā viņu nozieguma dēļ.
And they forsook the temple of the Lord the God of their fathers, and served groves and idols, and wrath came upon Juda and Jerusalem for this sin.
19 Un viņš tiem sūtīja praviešus, tos atkal atgriezt pie Tā Kunga, un tie gan deva liecību pret viņiem, bet šie savas ausis neatvēra.
And he sent prophets to them to bring them back to the Lord, and they would not give ear when they testified against them.
20 Bet Tā Kunga Gars nāca uz Zahariju, priestera Jojadas dēlu. Tas uzkāpa kādā augstā vietā ļaužu priekšā un uz tiem sacīja: tā Dievs saka: kāpēc jūs pārkāpjat Tā Kunga baušļus? Tas jums nebūs par labu! Jūs To Kungu esat atstājuši, Viņš jūs arīdzan atstās.
The spirit of God then came upon Zacharias the son of Joiada the priest, and he stood in the sight of the people, and said to them: Thus saith the Lord God: Why transgress you the commandment of the Lord which will not be for your good, and have forsaken the Lord, to make him forsake you?
21 Un tie cēlās pret viņu un to nomētāja akmeņiem pēc ķēniņa pavēles Tā Kunga nama pagalmā.
And they gathered themselves together against him, and stoned him at the king’s commandment in the court of the house of the Lord.
22 Tā ķēniņš Joas nepieminēja to žēlastību, ko viņa tēvs Jojada tam bija parādījis, bet nokāva viņa dēlu. Un mirdams tas sacīja: Tas Kungs to redzēs un piemeklēs.
And king Joas did not remember the kindness that Joiada his father had done to him, but killed his son. And when he died, he said: The Lord see, and require it.
23 Kad nu gads bija pagājis, tad Sīriešu kara spēks cēlās pret viņu; un tie nāca pret Jūdu un Jeruzālemi un nogalināja no tiem ļaudīm visus ļaužu virsniekus, un sūtīja visu savu laupījumu Damaskus ķēniņam.
And when a year was come about, the army of Syria came up against him: and they came to Juda and Jerusalem, and killed all the princes of the people, and they sent all the spoils to the king of Damascus.
24 Un jebšu Sīriešu spēks mazā pulkā atnāca, taču Tas Kungs tiem nodeva rokā ļoti lielu kara spēku, tāpēc ka šie bija atstājuši To Kungu, savu tēvu Dievu; un Joasu tie sodīja.
And whereas there came a very small number of the Syrians, the Lord delivered into their hands an infinite multitude, because they had forsaken the Lord the God of their fathers: and on Joas they executed shameful judgments.
25 Un kad šie no viņa atkal aizgāja, (jo šie viņu pameta ļoti ievainotu, ) tad viņa kalpi pret viņu sacēlās priestera Jojadas bērnu asiņu dēļ, un to nokāva viņa gultā, ka tas nomira. Un to apraka Dāvida pilī, bet ķēniņa kapos to neraka.
And departing they left him in diseases: and his servants rose up him, for revenge of the blood of the son of Joiada the priest, and they slew him in his bed, and he died: and they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchres of the kings.
26 Un šie ir, kas pret viņu bija sacēlušies: Zabads, Amonietes Zimeatas dēls, un Jozabads, Moabietes Zimrites dēls.
Now the men that conspired against him were Zabad the son of Semmaath an Ammonitess, and Jozabad the son of Semarith a Moabitess.
27 Bet viņa dēli un viņa meslu-naudas krājums un Dieva nama uzkopšana, redzi, tas viss rakstīts ķēniņu grāmatas rakstos. Un viņa dēls Amacīja palika par ķēniņu viņa vietā.
And concerning his sons, and the sum of money which was gathered under him, and the repairing the house of God; they are written more diligently in the book of kings: and Amasias his son reigned in his stead.
