Sog̒u 2
1 Un Tā Kunga eņģelis nāca no Gilgalas uz Boķimu un sacīja: Es jūs esmu izvedis no Ēģiptes un jūs ievedis tai zemē, ko jūsu tēviem esmu zvērējis, un sacījis: Es Savu derību ar jums negribu lauzt ne mūžam.
Now the angel of the LORD went up from Gilgal to Bochim and said, “I brought you up out of Egypt and led you into the land that I had promised to your fathers, and I said, ‘I will never break My covenant with you,
2 Bet jums nebūs derību darīt ar šīs zemes iedzīvotājiem, viņu altārus jums būs salauzt. Bet jūs neesat klausījuši Manai balsij; kam jūs tā esat darījuši?
and you are not to make a covenant with the people of this land, but you shall tear down their altars.’ Yet you have not obeyed My voice. What is this you have done?
3 Tāpēc Es arī esmu sacījis: Es tos neizdzīšu jūsu priekšā, bet tie jums būs par tīkliem, un viņu dievi par slazda valgiem.
So now I tell you that I will not drive out these people before you; they will be thorns in your sides, and their gods will be a snare to you.”
4 Un kad Tā Kunga eņģelis šos vārdus bija runājis uz visiem Israēla bērniem, tad tie ļaudis pacēla savu balsi un raudāja.
When the angel of the LORD had spoken these words to all the Israelites, the people lifted up their voices and wept.
5 Un tie nosauca tās vietas vārdu Boķim (raudātāji), un upurēja tur Tam Kungam.
So they called that place Bochim and offered sacrifices there to the LORD.
6 Jo kad Jozuas tos ļaudis bija atlaidis, tad Israēla bērni bija nogājuši ikviens uz savu īpašumu, ieņemt to zemi.
After Joshua had dismissed the people, the Israelites went out to take possession of the land, each to his own inheritance.
7 Un tie ļaudis kalpoja Tam Kungam, kamēr Jozuas dzīvoja un kamēr tie vecaji dzīvoja, kas vēl ilgu laiku pēc Jozuas dzīvoja, kas bija redzējuši visus Tā Kunga lielos darbus, ko Viņš bija darījis pie Israēla bērniem.
And the people served the LORD throughout the days of Joshua and of the elders who outlived him, who had seen all the great works that the LORD had done for Israel.
8 Bet kad Jozuas, Nuna dēls, Tā Kunga kalps, bija nomiris simts un desmit gadus vecs,
And Joshua son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died at the age of 110.
9 Tad tie viņu apraka viņa robežās TimnatEresā uz Efraīma kalniem, no Gaāša kalna pret ziemeļiem.
They buried him in the land of his inheritance, at Timnath-heres in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash.
10 Kad nu arī viss tas dzimums bija aizgājis pie saviem tēviem, tad cēlās cits dzimums pēc viņiem, kas To Kungu nepazina, nedz tos darbus, ko Viņš bija darījis pie Israēla.
After that whole generation had also been gathered to their fathers, another generation rose up who did not know the LORD or the works that He had done for Israel.
11 Tad Israēla bērni darīja, kas Tam Kungam nepatika, un kalpoja Baāliem.
And the Israelites did evil in the sight of the LORD and served the Baals.
12 Un atstāja To Kungu, savu tēvu Dievu, kas tos bija izvedis no Ēģiptes, un dzinās pakaļ citiem dieviem no to ļaužu dieviem, kas tiem bija visapkārt, un pielūdza tos un apkaitināja To Kungu.
Thus they forsook the LORD, the God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt, and they followed after various gods of the peoples around them. They bowed down to them and provoked the LORD to anger,
13 Jo tie atstāja To Kungu un kalpoja Baālam un Astartēm.
for they forsook Him and served Baal and the Ashtoreths.
14 Tad Tā Kunga bardzība iedegās pret Israēli, un Viņš tos nodeva laupītājiem rokā, kas tos aplaupīja, un Viņš tos pārdeva viņu ienaidnieku rokā visapkārt, un tie vairs nevarēja pastāvēt savu ienaidnieku priekšā.
Then the anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He delivered them into the hands of those who plundered them. He sold them into the hands of their enemies all around, whom they were no longer able to resist.
15 Visur, kur tie izgāja, Tā Kunga roka bija pret tiem par sodu, kā Tas Kungs bija runājis un kā Tas Kungs tiem bija zvērējis, un tie tapa gauži spaidīti.
Wherever Israel marched out, the hand of the LORD was against them to bring calamity, just as He had sworn to them. So they were greatly distressed.
16 Tad Tas Kungs iecēla soģus, kas tos izglāba no viņu laupītāju rokas.
Then the LORD raised up judges, who saved them from the hands of those who plundered them.
17 Bet tie arī neklausīja saviem soģiem, bet maukoja pakaļ citiem dieviem un tos pielūdza; ātri tie atstājās no tā ceļa, ko viņu tēvi bija gājuši, klausīt Tā Kunga baušļus; tā tie nedarīja.
Israel, however, did not listen to their judges. Instead, they prostituted themselves with other gods and bowed down to them. They quickly turned from the way of their fathers, who had walked in obedience to the LORD’s commandments; they did not do as their fathers had done.
18 Un kad Tas Kungs tiem iecēla soģus, tad Tas Kungs bija ar to soģi, un tos izglāba no viņu ienaidnieku rokas, kamēr tas soģis dzīvoja; to Tam Kungam bija žēl, ka viņi nopūtās par tiem, kas viņus spieda un spaidīja.
Whenever the LORD raised up a judge for the Israelites, He was with that judge and saved them from the hands of their enemies while the judge was still alive; for the LORD was moved to pity by their groaning under those who oppressed them and afflicted them.
19 Bet kad tas soģis nomira, tad tie atkāpās un palika ļaunāki nekā viņu tēvi, dzīdamies pakaļ citiem dieviem, tiem kalpodami un tos pielūgdami; tie neatstājās no saviem darbiem, nedz no savas pārgalvības ceļa.
But when the judge died, the Israelites became even more corrupt than their fathers, going after other gods to serve them and bow down to them. They would not give up their evil practices and stubborn ways.
20 Tad Tā Kunga bardzība iedegās pret Israēli, ka Viņš sacīja: tāpēc ka šī tauta Manu derību pārkāpusi, ko Es viņu tēviem pavēlēju, un nav klausījusi Manai balsij,
So the anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He said, “Because this nation has transgressed the covenant I laid down for their fathers and has not heeded My voice,
21 Tad Es arī viņu priekšā neizdzīšu neviena no tiem pagāniem, ko Jozuas atstājis, kad viņš nomira,
I will no longer drive out before them any of the nations Joshua left when he died.
22 Lai Es Israēli caur tiem kārdināju, vai viņi Tā Kunga ceļu sargās, staigādami pa to, tā kā viņu tēvi ir sargājušies, vai ne?
In this way I will test whether Israel will keep the way of the LORD by walking in it as their fathers did.”
23 Tā Tas Kungs atstāja šos pagānus, tos tik drīz neizdzīdams, un tos nenodeva Jozuas rokā.
That is why the LORD had left those nations in place and had not driven them out immediately by delivering them into the hand of Joshua.
