Jozuas 22
1 Tad Jozuas aicināja Rūbeniešus un Gadiešus un Manasus puscilti,
Then Joshua called the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh,
2 Un uz tiem sacīja: jūs visu esat turējuši, ko jums Mozus, Tā Kunga kalps, pavēlējis, un esat klausījuši manai balsij visās lietās, ko es jums esmu pavēlējis.
and said to them, “You have kept all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, and have listened to my voice in all that I commanded you.
3 Jūs savus brāļus neesat atstājuši tādu ilgu laiku līdz šai dienai, bet esat turējuši, kas bija jātur, Tā Kunga, sava Dieva pavēli.
You have not left your brothers these many days to this day, but have performed the duty of the commandment of the LORD your God.
4 Un nu Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, mieru ir devis jūsu brāļiem, tā kā Viņš tiem bija runājis. Tad nu griežaties atpakaļ un ejat uz saviem dzīvokļiem, uz savu īpašu zemi, ko jums Tā Kunga kalps Mozus devis viņpus Jardānes.
Now the LORD your God has given rest to your brothers, as he spoke to them. Therefore now return and go to your tents, to the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you beyond the Jordan.
5 Bet no Dieva puses dariet to likumu un to bauslību, ko jums Mozus, Tā Kunga kalps, ir pavēlējis, ka jūs mīļojat To Kungu, savu Dievu, un staigājat visos Viņa ceļos un turat Viņa baušļus un Viņam pieķeraties un Viņam kalpojat no visas savas sirds un no visas savas dvēseles.
Only take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law which Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, to keep his commandments, to hold fast to him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.”
6 Tā Jozuas tos svētīja un atlaida, un tie aizgāja uz saviem dzīvokļiem.
So Joshua blessed them, and sent them away; and they went to their tents.
7 Jo vienai Manasus cilts pusei Mozus to (daļu) bija devis Basanā, bet viņas otrai pusei Jozuas to daļu deva pie viņu brāļiem šaipus Jardānes pret vakariem.
Now to the one half-tribe of Manasseh Moses had given inheritance in Bashan; but Joshua gave to the other half among their brothers beyond the Jordan westward. Moreover when Joshua sent them away to their tents, he blessed them,
8 Kad Jozuas tos atlaida uz viņu dzīvokļiem, tad viņš tos svētīja un uz tiem runāja sacīdams: ar lielu bagātību jūs griežaties atpakaļ uz saviem dzīvokļiem, ar varen daudz lopiem, ar sudrabu un zeltu un ar varu un ar dzelzi un ar ļoti daudz drēbēm. Daliet savu ienaidnieku laupījumu ar saviem brāļiem.
and spoke to them, saying, “Return with much wealth to your tents, with very much livestock, with silver, with gold, with bronze, with iron, and with very much clothing. Divide the plunder of your enemies with your brothers.”
9 Tā Rūbena bērni un Gada bērni un Manasus puscilts griezās atpakaļ un aizgāja no Israēla bērniem no Šīlo Kanaāna zemē, un gāja uz Gileādas zemi, uz savu īpašu zemi, kur tie par mantiniekiem bija iecelti pēc Tā Kunga pavēles caur Mozu.
The children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh returned, and departed from the children of Israel out of Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan, to go to the land of Gilead, to the land of their possession, which they owned, according to the commandment of the LORD by Moses.
10 Kad tie nu nāca uz Jardānes apgabalu, kas Kanaāna zemē, tad Rūbena bērni un Gada bērni un Manasus puscilts tur uzcēla altāri pie Jardānes, lielu altāri, kur bija ko redzēt.
When they came to the region near the Jordan, that is in the land of Canaan, the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh built an altar there by the Jordan, a great altar to look at.
11 Un Israēla bērni dzirdēja sakām: Redzi, Rūbena bērni un Gada bērni un Manasus puscilts ir uzcēluši altāri Kanaāna zemei pretī, Jardānes apgabalā, Israēla bērniem pretim.
The children of Israel heard this, “Behold, the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh have built an altar along the border of the land of Canaan, in the region around the Jordan, on the side that belongs to the children of Israel.”
12 Kad Israēla bērni to dzirdēja, tad visa Israēla bērnu draudze sapulcējās Šīlo, ka tie pret viņiem celtos ar karaspēku.
When the children of Israel heard of it, the whole congregation of the children of Israel gathered themselves together at Shiloh, to go up against them to war.
13 Un Israēla bērni sūtīja pie Rūbena bērniem un pie Gada bērniem un pie Manasus puscilts uz Gileādas zemi Pinehasu, Eleazara, tā priestera, dēlu,
The children of Israel sent to the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh, into the land of Gilead, Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest.
14 Un desmit virsniekus līdz ar viņu, no ikviena tēva nama vienu virsnieku no visām Israēla ciltīm, un ikviens no tiem bija tā galva savu tēvu namā pār Israēla tūkstošiem.
With him were ten princes, one prince of a fathers’ house for each of the tribes of Israel; and they were each head of their fathers’ houses among the thousands of Israel.
15 Un tie nāca pie Rūbena bērniem un pie Gada bērniem un pie Manasus puscilts Gileādas zemē, un runāja ar tiem un sacīja:
They came to the children of Reuben, and to the children of Gad, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh, to the land of Gilead, and they spoke with them, saying,
16 Tā saka visa Tā Kunga draudze: kas tas par noziegumu, ko jūs pret Israēla Dievu esat noziegušies, nogriezdamies šodien no Tā Kunga, ka jūs sev esat uztaisījuši altāri, Tam Kungam šodien pretī turēdamies?
“The whole congregation of the LORD says, ‘What trespass is this that you have committed against the God of Israel, to turn away today from following the LORD, in that you have built yourselves an altar, to rebel today against the LORD?
17 Vai tas Peora noziegums mums vēl ir mazs, no kā mēs (vēl) neesam šķīstījušies līdz šai dienai, jebšu mocība Tā Kunga draudzē ir bijusi?
Is the iniquity of Peor too little for us, from which we have not cleansed ourselves to this day, although there came a plague on the congregation of the LORD,
18 Un jūs šodien nogriežaties no Tā Kunga; bet notiks, kad jūs Tam Kungam šodien turēsities pretī, tad Viņš rīt dusmosies par visu Israēla draudzi.
that you must turn away today from following the LORD? It will be, since you rebel today against the LORD, that tomorrow he will be angry with the whole congregation of Israel.
19 Bet ja jums šķiet, savu iemantoto zemi nešķīstu esam, tad nāciet pāri uz Tā Kunga īpašu zemi, kur Tā Kunga dzīvoklis stāv, un ņemiet savu daļu mūsu vidū, bet neturaties pretī Tam Kungam, nedz turaties pretī mums, uzceldami sev altāri klāt pie Tā Kunga, mūsu Dieva, altāra.
However, if the land of your possession is unclean, then pass over to the land of the possession of the LORD, in which the LORD’s tabernacle dwells, and take possession among us; but don’t rebel against the LORD, nor rebel against us, in building an altar other than the LORD our God’s altar.
20 Vai Akans, Zerus dēls, nebija ļoti noziedzies pie tā, kas bija izdeldējams? Un bardzība nāca pār visu Israēla draudzi, un tas vīrs nenomira viens vien sava nozieguma dēļ.
Didn’t Achan the son of Zerah commit a trespass in the devoted thing, and wrath fell on all the congregation of Israel? That man didn’t perish alone in his iniquity.’”
21 Tad Rūbena bērni un Gada bērni un Manasus puscilts atbildēja un runāja uz Israēla tūkstošu virsniekiem:
Then the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the half-tribe of Manasseh answered, and spoke to the heads of the thousands of Israel,
22 Tas stiprais Dievs, Dievs, Tas Kungs, tas stiprais Dievs, Dievs, Tas Kungs, tas zin, un arī Israēlim būs zināt, ja tas ir no pretestības vai caur noziegumu pret To Kungu, tad lai Viņš mums šodien nepalīdz.
“The Mighty One, God, the LORD, the Mighty One, God, the LORD, he knows; and Israel shall know: if it was in rebellion, or if in trespass against the LORD (don’t save us today),
23 Ja mēs tāpēc sev altāri esam uzcēluši, ka gribam nogriezties no Tā Kunga, vai uz tā upurēt dedzināmos upurus vai ēdamus upurus vai pateicības upurus, tad lai Tas Kungs to piemeklē;
that we have built us an altar to turn away from following the LORD; or if to offer burnt offering or meal offering, or if to offer sacrifices of peace offerings, let the LORD himself require it.
24 Un ja mēs to neesam darījuši šo lietu bīdamies un sacīdami: rītu jūsu bērni uz mūsu bērniem runās un sacīs: kas jums par daļu ar To Kungu, Israēla Dievu?
“If we have not out of concern done this, and for a reason, saying, ‘In time to come your children might speak to our children, saying, “What have you to do with the LORD, the God of Israel?
25 Tas Kungs par robežu ir licis to Jardāni starp mums un jums, jūs Rūbena bērni un jūs Gada bērni, jums nav daļas pie Tā Kunga; tad jūsu bērni mūsu bērniem liktu atstāties no Tā Kunga bijāšanas.
For the LORD has made the Jordan a border between us and you, you children of Reuben and children of Gad. You have no portion in the LORD.”’ So your children might make our children cease from fearing the LORD.
26 Tāpēc mēs sacījām: taisīsim jel sev un uzcelsim altāri, ne dedzināmiem upuriem, nedz kaujamiem upuriem,
“Therefore we said, ‘Let’s now prepare to build ourselves an altar, not for burnt offering, nor for sacrifice;
27 Bet ka tas būtu par liecinieku starp mums un jums, un starp mūsu radiem pēc mums, ka mēs Tam Kungam ar kalpošanu varam kalpot Viņa priekšā, ar saviem dedzināmiem upuriem un ar saviem kaujamiem upuriem un ar saviem pateicības upuriem, un lai jūsu bērni turpmāk uz mūsu bērniem nevar sacīt: jums nav daļas pie Tā Kunga.
but it will be a witness between us and you, and between our generations after us, that we may perform the service of the LORD before him with our burnt offerings, with our sacrifices, and with our peace offerings;’ that your children may not tell our children in time to come, ‘You have no portion in the LORD.’
28 Tāpēc mēs sacījām: kad notiek, ka tie uz mums vai uz mūsu pēcnākamiem turpmāk tā sacīs; tad mēs sacīsim: redziet Tā Kunga altāra taisījumu, ko mūsu tēvi ir taisījuši, ne dedzināmiem upuriem, nedz kaujamiem upuriem, bet par liecību starp jums un mums.
“Therefore we said, ‘It shall be, when they tell us or our generations this in time to come, that we shall say, “Behold the pattern of the LORD’s altar, which our fathers made, not for burnt offering, nor for sacrifice; but it is a witness between us and you.”’
29 Lai tas ir tālu no mums, ka mēs būtu pretī turējušies Tam Kungam, vai šodien no Tā Kunga nogriezušies, uzceldami vēl vienu altāri dedzināmiem upuriem, ēdamiem upuriem un kaujamiem upuriem klāt pie Tā Kunga, mūsu Dieva, altāra, kas ir Viņa dzīvokļa priekšā.
“Far be it from us that we should rebel against the LORD, and turn away today from following the LORD, to build an altar for burnt offering, for meal offering, or for sacrifice, besides the LORD our God’s altar that is before his tabernacle!”
30 Kad priesteris Pinehas un tie draudzes virsnieki un tās galvas pār Israēla tūkstošiem, kas pie tā bija, dzirdēja tos vārdus, ko Rūbena bērni un Gada bērni un Manasus bērni runāja, tad tas viņiem patika.
When Phinehas the priest, and the princes of the congregation, even the heads of the thousands of Israel that were with him, heard the words that the children of Reuben and the children of Gad and the children of Manasseh spoke, it pleased them well.
31 Un Pinehas, priestera Eleazara dēls, sacīja uz Rūbena bērniem un uz Gada bērniem un uz Manasus bērniem: šodien mēs atzīstam, ka Tas Kungs ir mūsu vidū, ka jūs ar šo noziegumu neesat noziegušies pret To Kungu; nu jūs Israēla bērnus esat izglābuši no Tā Kunga rokas.
Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest said to the children of Reuben, to the children of Gad, and to the children of Manasseh, “Today we know that the LORD is among us, because you have not committed this trespass against the LORD. Now you have delivered the children of Israel out of the LORD’s hand.”
32 Tad Pinehas, priestera Eleazara dēls, un tie virsnieki griezās atpakaļ no Rūbena bērniem un no Gada bērniem no Gileāda zemes uz Kanaāna zemi pie Israēla bērniem un viņiem atsacīja šo vārdu.
Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, and the princes, returned from the children of Reuben, and from the children of Gad, out of the land of Gilead, to the land of Canaan, to the children of Israel, and brought them word again.
33 Un tas vārds patika Israēla bērniem, un Israēla bērni teica Dievu un vairs nedomāja pret viņiem celties ar karaspēku nedz to zemi postīt, kur Rūbena bērni un Gada bērni dzīvoja.
The thing pleased the children of Israel; and the children of Israel blessed God, and spoke no more of going up against them to war, to destroy the land in which the children of Reuben and the children of Gad lived.
34 Un Rūbena bērni un Gada bērni nosauca to altāri: lai tas ir par liecinieku starp mums, ka Tas Kungs ir Dievs.
The children of Reuben and the children of Gad named the altar “A Witness Between Us that the LORD is God.”
