Jezekiel 17
1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz mani sacīdams:
2 Son of man, relate a tale, and speak a parable to the house of Israel:
Cilvēka bērns, liec Israēla namam mīklu priekšā un stāsti līdzību.
3 and you shall say, Thus says the Lord; A great eagle with large wings, spreading them out very far, with many claws, which has the design of entering into Libanus—and he took the choice [branches] of the cedar:
Un saki: tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: liels ērglis ar lieliem spārniem, ar stipriem locekļiem un kuplām raibām spalvām nāca uz Lībanu un paņēma ciedra koka galotni.
4 he cropped off the ends of the tender twigs, and brought them into the land of Chanaan; he laid them up in a walled city.
Viņš nolauza pašu virsgalu un to aiznesa uz vienu tirgoņu zemi un to iestādīja vienā tirgotāju pilsētā.
5 And he took of the seed of the land, and sowed it in a field planted by much water; he set it in a conspicuous place.
Viņš paņēma arīdzan no tās zemes sēklas un lika to sējamā tīrumā, viņš to paņēma un stādīja kā vītolu pie liela ūdens.
6 And it sprang up, and became a weak and little vine, so that the branches thereof appeared [upon] it, and its roots were under it: and it became a vine, and put forth shoots, and sent forth its tendrils.
Un tā izplauka un palika par kuplu vīna koku ar zemu augumu, jo viņa stīgas locījās uz viņu, un viņa sakne bija apakš viņa; tā viņš tapa par vīna koku, kas izlaida stīgas un dabūja zarus.
7 And there was another great eagle, with great wings and many claws: and, behold, this vine bent itself round towards him, and her roots [were turned] towards him, and she sent forth her branches towards him, that [he] might water her together with the growth of her plantation.
Un vēl viens ērglis bija ar lieliem spārniem un kuplām spalvām, un redzi, tas vīna koks locīja savas saknes uz viņu un izstiepa savus zarus pret viņu, ka viņš šo slacinātu no sava stādījuma dobēm.
8 She thrives in a fair field by much water, to produce shoots and bear fruit, that she might become a great vine.
Gan tas bija dēstīts labā zemē pie liela ūdens, ka tam bija stīgas izlaist un augļus nest un palikt par it labu vīna koku.
9 Therefore say, Thus says the Lord; Shall it prosper? shall not the roots of her tender stem and her fruit be blighted? yes, all her early shoots shall be dried up, and [that] not by a mighty arm, nor by many people, to tear her up from her roots.
Saki tad: tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: vai tam labi izdosies? Vai viņa saknes netaps izrautas un viņa augļi nogriezti, ka sakalst un visas viņa zaļās lapas savīst? Un tas nenotiks caur lielu elkoni nedz caur lielu ļaužu pulku, ka to izcels no viņa saknēm.
10 And, behold, it thrives: shall it prosper? shall it not wither as soon as the east wind touches it? it shall be withered together with the growth of its shoots.
Redzi jel! Viņš gan ir dēstīts, bet vai tam labi izdosies? Vai tas, kad rīta vējš to aizskars, kaltin nenokaltīs? Uz tām dobēm, kur tas dēstīts, tas nokaltīs.
11 Moreover the word of the Lord came to me saying,
Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz mani sacīdams:
12 Son of man, say now to the provoking house, Know you not what these things were? say [to them], Whenever the king of Babylon shall come against Jerusalem, then he shall take her king and her princes, and shall take them home to Babylon.
Saki jel uz to atkāpēju sugu: vai jūs nezināt, kas tas ir? Saki: redzi, Bābeles ķēniņš ir nācis uz Jeruzālemi un paņēmis viņas ķēniņu līdz ar viņas lielkungiem un tos aizvedis pie sevis uz Bābeli.
13 And he shall take of the seed royal, and shall make a covenant with him, and shall bind him with an oath: and he shall take the princes of the land:
Un viņš no ķēniņa dzimuma vienu ir ņēmis un ar to cēlis derību un tam licis zvērēt un atņēmis zemes varenos,
14 that it may become a weak kingdom, so as never to lift itself up, that he may keep his covenant, and establish it.
Lai tā valsts būtu zema un nepaaugstinātos, un lai tā derību turēdama pastāvētu.
15 And [if] he shall revolt from him, to send his messengers into Egypt, that [they] may give him horses and much people; shall he prosper? shall he that acts as an adversary be preserved? and shall he that transgresses the covenant be preserved?
Bet tas no viņa atkāpās un sūtīja savus vēstnešus uz Ēģipti, lai tam sūtītu zirgus un ļaužu pulku. Vai tam izdosies? Vai tas izglābsies, kas to dara? Vai derības lauzējs izglābsies?
16 [As] I live, says the Lord, verily in [the] place where the king is that made him king, who dishonoured my oath, and who broke my covenant, shall he die with him in the midst of Babylon.
Tik tiešām kā Es dzīvoju, saka Tas Kungs Dievs, tā ķēniņa zemē, kas viņu darījis par ķēniņu, kam zvērestu viņš nicinājis un kam derību viņš lauzis, pie tā viņš nomirs Bābelē.
17 And Pharaoh shall make war upon him not with a large force or great multitude, in throwing up a mound, and in building of forts, to cut off souls.
Un Faraons karā viņam klāt nestāvēs ar lielu karaspēku un ar lielu pulku, kad uzmetīs valni un uztaisīs bulverķus, izdeldēt daudz dvēseles.
18 Whereas he has profaned the oath so as to break the covenant, when, behold, I engage his hand, and he has done all these things to him, he shall not escape.
Jo viņš nicinājis zvērestu un lauzis derību; redzi, jebšu viņš savu roku bija devis, tomēr viņš visu to ir darījis, tāpēc viņš neizglābsies.
19 Therefore say, Thus says the Lord; [As] I live, surely mine oath which he has profaned, and my covenant which he has transgressed, I will even recompense it upon his head.
Tādēļ tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: tik tiešām kā Es dzīvoju, Es Savu zvērestu, ko viņš nicinājis, un Savu derību, ko viņš lauzis, gribu mest uz viņa galvu.
20 And I will spread a net upon him, and he shall be caught in its snare.
Un Es Savu tīklu izpletīšu pār viņu, ka viņš Manos valgos taps gūstīts, un Es viņu likšu novest uz Bābeli un tur ar viņu tiesāšos par viņa atkāpšanos, ka viņš no Manis atkāpies.
21 In every battle of his they shall fall by the sword, and I will scatter [his] remnant to every wind: and you shall know that I the Lord have spoken it.
Un visi viņa bēgļi ar visiem viņa piederīgiem kritīs caur zobenu, un tie atlikušie taps izkaisīti visos vējos, un jūs samanīsiet, ka Es, Tas Kungs, to esmu runājis.
22 For thus says the Lord; I will even take of the choice [branches] of the cedar from the top [thereof], I will crop off their hearts, and I will plant it on a high mountain:
Tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: Es ņemšu no tā augstā ciedra koka galotnes, un to stādīšu, no paša viņa virsgala es ņemšu zariņu, un to dēstīšu ļoti augstā kalnā,
23 and I will hang it on a lofty mountain of Israel: yes, I will plant it, and it shall put forth shoots, and shall bear fruit, and it shall be a great cedar: and every bird shall rest beneath it, even every fowl shall rest under its shadow: its branches shall be restored.
Israēla augstā kalnā Es to stādīšu, un viņš izlaidīs zarus un nesīs augļus un taps par krāšņu ciedra koku, tā ka apakš viņa dzīvos visādi putni no visādām spalvām; viņa zaru pavēnī tie dzīvos.
24 And all the trees of the field shall know that I am the Lord that bring low the high tree, and exalt the low tree, and wither the green tree, and cause the dry tree to flourish: I the Lord have spoken, and will do [it].
Un visi koki laukā samanīs, ka Es, Tas Kungs, to augsto koku esmu pazemojis un to zemo koku paaugstinājis, to zaļo koku kaltējis un to sakaltušo koku darījis zaļojam. Es, Tas Kungs, to esmu runājis un to darīšu.
