< Isaiah 46 >

1 Bel is bent down, Nebo is falling; their images are on the beasts and on the cattle: the things which you took about have become a weight to the tired beast.
Bels grūst, Nebus krīt, viņu tēlus uzliek kustoņiem un lopiem; ko jūs nesat, ir nesama nasta piekusušiem (lopiem).
2 They are bent down, they are falling together: they were not able to keep their images safe, but they themselves have been taken prisoner.
Tie visi kopā klūp un krīt, tie nevar izglābt to nastu, bet iet paši cietumā.
3 Give ear to me, O family of Jacob, and all the rest of the people of Israel, who have been supported by me from their birth, and have been my care from their earliest days:
Klausies uz Mani, Jēkaba nams, un visi atlikušie no Israēla nama, ko esmu nesis no mātes miesām un uzņēmis no mātes klēpja.
4 Even when you are old I will be the same, and when you are grey-haired I will take care of you: I will still be responsible for what I made; yes, I will take you and keep you safe.
Un līdz pašam vecumam Es būšu tas pats, kamēr jūs topat sirmi, Es nesīšu. Es to esmu darījis, un Es jūs uzņemšu, un Es nesīšu un izglābšu.
5 Who in your eyes is my equal? or what comparison will you make with me?
Kam jūs Mani līdzināsiet un turēsiet līdzīgu? Ar ko Mani salīdzināsiet, ka būtu vienādi?
6 As for those who take gold out of a bag, and put silver in the scales, they give payment to a gold-worker, to make it into a god; they go down on their faces and give it worship.
Tie izber zeltu no maka un sver sudrabu ar svaru, tie sader sudraba kalēju, un tas to iztaisa par dievekli, tie metās ceļos un to pielūdz.
7 They put him on their backs, and take him up, and put him in his fixed place, from which he may not be moved; if a man gives a cry for help to him, he is unable to give an answer, or get him out of his trouble.
Tie to ceļ uz pleciem, to nes, un to noliek savā vietā. Tur viņš stāv un neatstājās no savas vietas; viņu arī piesauc, bet tas neatbild un neviena neizglābj no bēdām.
8 Keep this in mind and be shamed; let it come back to your memory, you sinners.
Pieminiet to un turaties stipri, jūs pārkāpēji, ņemiet to pie sirds.
9 Let the things which are past come to your memory: for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one like me;
Pieminiet pagājušās lietas no vecu veciem laikiem; jo Es esmu Dievs, un cits neviens, Es esmu Dievs, un nav neviena kā Es,
10 Making clear from the first what is to come, and from past times the things which have not so far come about; saying, My purpose is fixed, and I will do all my pleasure;
Kas no iesākuma galu dara zināmu, un no senlaikiem to, kas vēl nav noticis, kas saka: Mans padoms pastāvēs, un Es darīšu visu, kas Man patīk.
11 Sending for a bird of strong flight from the east, the man of my purpose from a far country; I have said it, and I will give effect to it; the thing designed by me will certainly be done.
Es aicināju ērgli no rīta puses un vīru pēc Sava padoma no tālas zemes. Es to esmu runājis un tam likšu nākt, Es to esmu apņēmies, Es to arī izdarīšu.
12 Give ear to me, you feeble-hearted, who have no faith in my righteousness:
Klausāties uz Mani, cietsirdīgie, kas esat tālu no taisnības.
13 My righteousness is near, it is not far off; salvation will come quickly; and I will make Zion free, and give Israel my glory.
Es Savu taisnību tuvu esmu atnesis, tā nebūs tālu, un Mana pestīšana nekavēsies, jo Es došu pestīšanu Ciānā, iekš Israēla Savu godību.
