Otra Ķēniņu 18
1 Un Hosejas, Elas dēla, Israēla ķēniņa, trešā gadā Hizkija, Ahaza, Jūda ķēniņa, dēls, palika par ķēniņu.
Hezekiah, son of Ahaz, became king of Judah in the third year of the reign of Hoshea, son of Elah, king of Israel.
2 Un viņš bija divdesmit pieci gadus vecs, kad palika par ķēniņu, un valdīja divdesmit deviņus gadus Jeruzālemē, un viņa mātei bija vārds Abi, Zaharijas meita.
He was twenty-five when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for twenty-nine years. His mother's name was Abi, daughter of Zechariah.
3 Un tas darīja, kas Tam Kungam labi patika, tāpat kā viņa tēvs Dāvids bija darījis.
He did what was right in the Lord's sight, following all that his forefather David had done.
4 Tas nopostīja tos kalnu altārus un nolauzīja tos stabus un izdeldēja Astartes un sadragāja to vara čūsku, ko Mozus bija taisījis; jo līdz tam laikam Israēla bērni tai bija kvēpinājuši un to nosauca Neūstan (vara taisīta).
He removed the high places, smashed the stone idols, and cut down the Asherah poles. He ground to pieces the bronze snake Moses had made, because up to then the Israelites had been sacrificing offerings to it. It was called Nehushtan.
5 Viņš uzticējās Tam Kungam, Israēla Dievam, un pēc viņa nebija otrs tāds kā viņš no visiem Jūda ķēniņiem, arī priekš viņa tāds nebija bijis.
Hezekiah put his trust in the Lord, the God of Israel. Among the kings of Judah there was no one like him, neither before him nor after him.
6 Jo viņš pieķērās Tam Kungam un viņš no Tā neatkāpās un viņš turēja tos baušļus, ko Tas Kungs caur Mozu bija pavēlējis.
He stayed faithful to the Lord and did not give up following him. He kept the commandments that the Lord had given Moses.
7 Un Tas Kungs bija ar viņu, ka viss, kur viņš izgāja, labi izdevās. Viņš atkāpās arīdzan no Asīrijas ķēniņa un tam vairs nekalpoja.
The Lord was with him; he was successful in everything he did. He defied the king of Assyria and refused to submit to him.
8 Viņš kāva arīdzan Fīlistus līdz Gazai un viņas robežām, gan pilīs, gan stiprās pilsētās.
He defeated the Philistines all the way to Gaza and the surrounding area, from watchtower to fortified town.
9 Un ķēniņa Hizkijas ceturtā gadā, tas ir Hosejas, Elas dēla, Israēla ķēniņa, septītais gads, Salmanasers, Asīrijas ķēniņš, cēlās pret Samariju un apmeta lēģeri pret viņu.
In the fourth year of Hezekiah's reign, equivalent to the seventh year of the reign of Hoshea, son of Elah, king of Israel, Shalmaneser, king of Assyria, attacked Samaria, besieging it.
10 Un to uzņēma pēc trim gadiem, Hizkijas sestā gada, tas ir Hosejas, Israēla ķēniņa, devītais gads, - tad Samarija tapa uzņemta.
The Assyrians conquered it after three years. This was during the sixth year of Hezekiah, equivalent to the ninth year of Hoshea, king of Israel.
11 Un Asīrijas ķēniņš aizveda Israēli uz Asīriju un tiem lika dzīvot Halahā un pie Haboras, Gozanas upes, un Medijas pilsētās,
The king of Assyria deported the Israelites to Assyria. He settled them in Halah, in Gozan on the Habor River, and in the towns of the Medes.
12 Tāpēc ka tie Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, balsij nebija klausījuši, bet viņa derību pārkāpuši, un visu, ko Mozus, Tā Kunga kalps, bija pavēlējis, un to nebija nedz klausījuši nedz darījuši.
This happened because they refused to listen to the Lord their God and broke his agreement—all that Moses, the Lord's servant, had commanded. They refused to listen and did not obey.
13 Bet ķēniņa Hizkijas četrpadsmitā gadā Sanheribs, Asīrijas ķēniņš, cēlās pret visām stiprām Jūda pilsētām un tās uzņēma.
Sennacherib, king of Assyria, attacked and conquered all the fortified towns of Judah in the fourteenth year of the reign of Hezekiah.
14 Tad Hizkija, Jūda ķēniņš, sūtīja pie Asīrijas ķēniņa uz Laķisu un lika sacīt: es esmu apgrēkojies, griezies atpakaļ no manis, es nesīšu, ko tu man uzliksi. Tad Asīrijas ķēniņš Hizkijam, Jūda ķēniņam, uzlika trīssimt talentus sudraba un trīsdesmit talentus zelta.
So Hezekiah, king of Judah, sent a message to the king of Assyria who was at Lachish, saying, “I've made a terrible mistake! Please retreat and leave me alone, and I'll pay you whatever you want!” The king of Assyria demanded Hezekiah, king of Judah, pay three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold.
15 Un Hizkija deva visu sudrabu, kas atradās Tā Kunga namā un tā ķēniņa nama mantās.
Hezekiah paid him using all the silver from the Lord's Temple and the treasuries of the royal palace.
16 Tanī laikā Hizkija noplēsa (to zeltu) no Tā Kunga nama durvīm un no tiem stabiem, ko Hizkija, Jūda ķēniņš, bija apkalis ar zeltu, un to deva Asīrijas ķēniņam.
He even stripped the gold he had used to overlay the doors and doorposts of the Lord's Temple and gave everything to the king of Assyria.
17 Bet Asīrijas ķēniņš sūtīja Tartanu (augsto sargu), Rabsarisu (augsto valdoni) un Rabzaku (augsto dzērienu devēju) no Laķisas pie ķēniņa Hizkijas ar lielu karaspēku uz Jeruzālemi, un tie cēlās un gāja uz Jeruzālemi. Un kad tie bija cēlušies un nonākuši, tad tie nostājās pie augšēja dīķa ūdens grāvja, ceļa malā pie vadmalnieku tīruma.
Even so, the king of Assyria sent his commander in chief, his head officer, and his army general, along with a large army, from Lachish to King Hezekiah at Jerusalem. They approached Jerusalem and made camp beside the aqueduct of the upper pool, on the road to where laundry is washed.
18 Un tie sauca ķēniņu. Tad pie tiem izgāja nama uzraugs Elijaķims, Hilķijas dēls, un skrīveris Šebna un kanclers Joaks, Asafa dēls.
They called for the king. Eliakim, son of Hilkiah, the palace manager, Shebnah the scribe, and Joah, son of Asaph, the record-keeper, went out to speak with them.
19 Un Rabzakus uz tiem sacīja: sakāt jel Hizkijam: tā saka tas lielais ķēniņš, Asīrijas ķēniņš: kas tas tāds patvērums, uz ko tu paļaujies?
The Assyrian army general said to them, “Tell Hezekiah this is what the great king, the king of Assyria, says: What are you trusting in that gives you such confidence?
20 Tu saki tukšu vārdu, diezgan esot padoma un spēka uz karu. Uz ko tad tu paļaujies, ka tu no manis esi atkritis?
You say you have a strategy and are ready for war, but these are empty words. Who are you relying on, now that you have rebelled against me?
21 Nu redzi, tu paļaujies uz to salūzušo niedri, uz Ēģipti. Kas uz to atspiežas, tam tā ies rokā un to pārdurs. Tāds ir Faraons, Ēģiptes ķēniņš, visiem, kas uz viņu paļaujas.
Now look! You're trusting in Egypt, a walking stick that's like a broken reed that will cut the hand of anyone leaning on it. That's what Pharaoh, king of Egypt, is like to everyone who trusts in him.
22 Bet ja jūs uz mani sakāt: mēs paļaujamies uz To Kungu, savu Dievu: vai tas nav, kam kalnus un altārus Hizkija ir nopostījis un sacījis uz Jūdu un Jeruzālemi: priekš šī altāra, kas ir Jeruzālemē, jums būs pielūgt?
If you tell me, ‘We're trusting in the Lord our God,’ well didn't Hezekiah remove his high places and his altars, telling Judah and Jerusalem: ‘You have to worship at this altar in Jerusalem’?
23 Nu tad, noderi ar manu kungu, Asīrijas ķēniņu, un es tev došu divtūkstoš zirgus, ja tev ir jātnieki, ko tiem likt virsū.
Why don't you accept a challenge from my master, the king of Assyria? He says, I'll give you two thousand horses, if you can find enough riders for them!
24 Kā tad tu varēsi atsist atpakaļ vienu pašu virsnieku no mana kunga vismazākiem kalpiem? Bet tu paļaujies uz Ēģipti, ratu un jātnieku dēļ.
How could you defeat even a single officer in charge of the weakest of my master's men when you're trusting in Egypt for chariots and horsemen?
25 Vai tad nu es bez Tā Kunga esmu cēlies pret šo vietu, to izpostīt? Tas Kungs uz mani sacījis: celies pret šo zemi un izposti to.
More than that—would I have come to attack this pace without the Lord's encouragement? It was the Lord himself who told me, ‘Go and attack this land and destroy it.’”
26 Tad Elijaķims, Hilķijas dēls, un Šebna un Joaks sacīja uz Rabzaku: runā jel ar saviem kalpiem sīriski, - mēs to gan protam - un nerunā ar mums jūdiski priekš šo ļaužu ausīm, kas ir uz mūra.
Eliakim, son of Hilkiah, together with Shebnah and Joah, said to the army general, “Please speak to us, your servants, in Aramaic, for we understand it. Don't speak to us in Hebrew while the people on the wall are listening.”
27 Bet Rabzakus uz tiem sacīja: vai mans Kungs mani sūtījis pie tava kunga un pie tevis, šos vārdus runāt? Vai ne pie tiem vīriem, kas sēž uz mūra, kam līdz ar jums būs jāēd savi sūdi un jādzer savi mīzali.
But the army general replied, “Did my master only send me to say these things to your master and to you, and not to the people sitting on the wall? They too, just like you, are going to have to eat their own excrement and drink their own urine!”
28 Un Rabzakus nostājās un sauca ar stipru balsi jūdiski un runāja un sacīja: klausāties tā lielā ķēniņa, Asīrijas ķēniņa, vārdus.
Then the army general shouted out in Hebrew, “Listen to this from the great king, the king of Assyria!
29 Tā saka ķēniņš: lai Hizkija jūs neapmāna, jo viņš jūs nevarēs izglābt no manas rokas.
This is what the king says: Don't let Hezekiah trick you! He can't save you from me!
30 Lai arī Hizkija jums nedara cerību uz To Kungu sacīdams: tiešām, Tas Kungs mūs izglābs un šī pilsēta netaps dota Asīrijas ķēniņa rokā.
Don't believe Hezekiah when he tells you to trust in the Lord, saying, ‘I'm certain the Lord will save us. This city will never fall into the hands of the king of Assyria.’
31 Neklausāties uz Hizkiju. Jo tā saka Asīrijas ķēniņš: deriet ar mani mieru un nāciet pie manis ārā, tad ikviens ēdīs no sava vīna koka un ikviens no sava vīģes koka un ikviens dzers ūdeni no savas akas,
Don't listen to Hezekiah. This is what the king says: Make a peace treaty with me and surrender to me. That way everyone will eat from their own vine and their own fig tree, and drink water from their own well!
32 Kamēr es nākšu un jūs aizvedīšu tādā zemē, kāda ir jūsu zeme, labības un vīna zeme, maizes un vīna dārzu zeme, eļļas koku, eļļas un medus zeme, - tad jūs paliksiet dzīvi un nemirsiet. Bet Hizkijam neklausiet, jo viņš jūs pieviļ sacīdams: Tas Kungs mūs izpestīs.
I will come and take you to a land that's like your own, a land of grain and new wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of olive trees and honey. Then you will live and not die. But don't listen to Hezekiah, for he's tricking you when he says, ‘The Lord will deliver us.’
33 Vai gan pagānu dievi ikviens savu zemi izglābuši no Asiriešu ķēniņa rokas?
Have any of the gods of any nation ever saved their land from the power of the king of Assyria?
34 Kur ir Hamatas un Arpadas dievi? Kur ir Sefarvaimas, Enas un Ivas dievi? Vai tie gan izglābuši Samariju no manas rokas?
Where were the gods of Hamath and Arpad? Where were the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah? Were they able to save Samaria from me?
35 Kurš no visas pasaules dieviem izglābis savu zemi no manas rokas? Kā tad Tas Kungs Jeruzālemi izglābs no manas rokas?
Which one of all the gods of these countries has saved their land from me? How then could the Lord save Jerusalem from me?”
36 Bet tie ļaudis cieta klusu un viņam neatbildēja neviena vārda, jo ķēniņš bija pavēlējis un sacījis: jums nebūs viņam atbildēt.
But the people remained silent and didn't say anything, for Hezekiah had given the order, “Don't answer him.”
37 Tad nama uzraugs Elijaķims, Hilķijas dēls, un skrīveris Šebna un kanclers Joaks, Asapa dēls, nāca pie Hizkijas ar saplēstām drēbēm un viņam stāstīja Rabzakus vārdus.
Then Eliakim, son of Hilkiah, the palace manager, Shebna the scribe, and Joah, son of Asaph, the record-keeper, went to Hezekiah with their clothes torn, and they told him what the Assyrian army general had said.
