Isaiah 58
1 Cry out! Cease not! Exalt your voice like a trumpet, and announce to my people their wicked acts, and to the house of Jacob their sins.
Sauc pilnā kaklā, netaupi, pacel savu balsi kā bazūni, un pasludini Maniem ļaudīm viņu pārkāpumus un Jēkaba namam viņa grēkus.
2 For they also seek me, from day to day, and they are willing to know my ways, like a nation which has done justice and has not abandoned the judgment of their God. They petition me for judgments of justice. They are willing to draw near to God.
Jo Tie Mani meklē ikdienas, tā kā tiem būtu labs prāts pie Manu ceļu atzīšanas. Kā ļaudis, kas darījuši taisnību un nebūtu atstājuši sava Dieva tiesu, tie prasa no Manis taisnības tiesu; tie grib, lai Dievs tiem tuvojās.
3 “Why have we fasted, and you have not taken notice? Why have we humbled our souls, and you have not acknowledged it?” Behold, in the day of your fasting, your own will is found, and you petition for payment from all your debtors.
Kāpēc (tā tie saka) mēs gavējam, un tu to neuzlūko? Kāpēc mēs mērdējam savu dvēseli, un tu to negribi zināt? Redzi, tai dienā, kad jūs gavējat, tad jūs ejat pēc savas peļņas un dzenat visus savus strādniekus.
4 Behold, you fast with strife and contention, and you strike with the fist impiously. Do not choose to fast as you have done even to this day. Then your outcry will be heard on high.
Redzi, jūs gavējat bārdamies un riedamies un bezdievīgi kaudamies ar dūri. Jūs negavējat, kā pieklājās, lai jūsu balsis būtu dzirdamas augstībā.
5 Is this a fast such as I have chosen: for a man to afflict his soul for a day, to contort his head in a circle, and to spread sackcloth and ashes? Should you call this a fast and a day acceptable to the Lord?
Vai tāda ir gavēšana, kas Man patīk, diena, kur cilvēks savu dvēseli mērdē? Kad galvu nokar kā niedre un gulstas uz maisa un pelnos, vai jūs to saucat par gavēšanu un par dienu, kas Tam Kungam patīk?
6 Is not this, instead, the kind of fast that I have chosen? Release the constraints of impiety; relieve the burdens that oppress; freely forgive those who are broken; and break apart every burden.
Vai tā nav gavēšana, kas Man patīk: atraisīt no netaisnām saitēm, no jūga atsvabināt, spaidītus atlaist vaļā un salauzt ikkatru jūgu?
7 Break your bread with the hungry, and lead the destitute and the homeless into your house. When you see someone naked, cover him, and do not despise your own flesh.
Vai tā nepiederas, maizi lauzt izsalkušiem, namā ievest nabaga izdzītus, kailu ieraugot, to apsegt un neapslēpties no sava tuvāka?
8 Then your light will break forth like the morning, and your health will improve quickly, and your justice will go before your face, and the glory of the Lord will gather you up.
Tad ausīs tava gaisma kā dienas blāzma, un tava dzīvība no jauna zels, un tava taisnība ies tavā priekšā, un Tā Kunga godība tevi pavadīs.
9 Then you will call, and the Lord will heed; you will cry out, and he will say, “Here I am,” if you take away the chains from your midst, and cease to point your finger and to speak what is not beneficial.
Tad tu sauksi, un Tas Kungs atbildēs, tu brēksi, un Viņš sacīs: redzi, še Es esmu. Ja no sava vidus izraidīsi varmācību, mitēsies ar pirkstiem rādīt un nerunāsi ļauna,
10 When you pour out your life for the hungry, and you satisfy the afflicted soul, then your light will rise up in darkness, and your darkness will be like the midday.
Un ja tu izsalkušam atdarīsi savu sirdi un paēdināsi apbēdināto dvēseli, tad tava gaisma atspīdēs tumsībā, un tava krēsla būs kā dienas vidus;
11 And the Lord will give you rest continually, and he will fill your soul with splendor, and he will free your bones, and you will be like a watered garden and like a fountain of water whose waters will not fail.
Un Tas Kungs tevi vadīs bez mitēšanās un pieēdinās tavu dvēseli tuksnesī un stiprinās tavus kaulus. Un tu būsi kā slacināts dārzs un kā ūdens avots, kam ūdens netrūkst.
12 And places that have been desolate for ages will be built up by you. You will raise a foundation for generation after generation. And you will be called the repairer of hedges, who turns the roadways into quiet places.
Un tavi bērni uzcels vecu vecās posta vietas, tu atjaunosi pagājušu cilšu pamatus un tevi sauks (par) plaisumu aizmūrētāju un ceļu atjaunotāju, kur var dzīvot.
13 If you restrain your foot on the Sabbath, from doing your own will on my holy day, and if you call the Sabbath delightful, and the Holy of the Lord glorious, and if you glorify him, while you do not act according to your own ways, and your own will is not found, not even to speak a word,
Ja tu savu kāju savaldi svētdienā un nedari, kas tev patīk, Manā svētā dienā, un ja tu dusas dienu nosauci par līksmību, par Tā Kunga svēto (dienu), kas cienījama, un tu tā viņu godā turi, ka nestaigā savus ceļus nedz ej pēc savas pelņas nedz runā liekus vārdus.
14 then you will find delight in the Lord, and I will take you up, above the heights of the earth, and I will nourish you with the inheritance of Jacob, your father. For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.
Tad tu priecāsies iekš Tā Kunga, un Es tevi vadīšu pār zemes augstumiem, un Es tevi mielošu ar tava tēva Jēkaba mantību; jo Tā Kunga mute to runājusi.
