< Jeremiah 31 >
1 “In that time, says the Lord, I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they will be my people.”
Tanī laikā, saka Tas Kungs, Es visām Israēla ciltīm būšu par Dievu, un tās Man būs par ļaudīm.
2 Thus says the Lord: “The people who had remained after the sword, found grace in the desert. Israel will go to his rest.”
Tā saka Tas Kungs: Tie ļaudis, kas atlikuši no zobena, atraduši žēlastību tuksnesī; Es iešu, Israēli vest pie dusas.
3 The Lord appeared to me from a distance: “And I have loved you in perpetual charity. Therefore, showing pity, I have drawn you.
Tas Kungs man parādījies no tālienes: Es tevi esmu mīļojis ar mūžīgu mīlestību, tādēļ Es tevi žēlīgi esmu vilcis pie Sevis.
4 And I will build you up again. And you shall be built up, O virgin of Israel. Still shall you be adorned with your timbrels, and still shall you go forth to the singing of those who play.
Es tevi atkal uztaisīšu, un tu tapsi uzcelta, Israēla meita! Tu atkal pušķosies ar savām bungām un iziesi priecīgi diedama.
5 Still shall you plant vineyards on the mountains of Samaria. The planters will plant, and they will not gather the vintage until the time arrives.
Tu atkal dēstīsi vīna dārzus Samarijas kalnos, dēstītāji tos dēstīs un droši baudīs.
6 For there will be a day on which the guardians on mount Ephraim will cry out: ‘Arise! And let us ascend on Zion to the Lord our God!’”
Jo būs diena, kad sargi sauks uz Efraīma kalniem: ceļaties, ejam augšā uz Ciānu pie Tā Kunga, mūsu Dieva.
7 For thus says the Lord: “Exult in the joy of Jacob, and neigh before the head of the Gentiles. Shout, and sing, and say: ‘O Lord, save your people, the remnant of Israel!’
Jo tā saka Tas Kungs: sauciet par Jēkabu ar līksmību un gavilējiet par tautu galvu, sludinājiet, teiciet un sakiet: ak Kungs, pestī Savus ļaudis, Israēla atlikušos!
8 Behold, I will lead them from the land of the north, and I will gather them from the ends of the earth. Among them will be the blind and the lame, she who is with child, together with she who is giving birth: a great assembly returning to this place.
Redzi, Es tos atvedīšu no ziemeļu zemes un tos sapulcināšu no zemes galiem; viņu starpā būs akli un tizli, grūtas un dzemdētājas kopā, lielā pulkā tie šurp atgriezīsies.
9 They will approach with weeping. And I will lead them back with mercy. And I will lead them through the torrents of water, by an upright way, and they will not stumble in it. For I have become Father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn.”
Tie nāks ar raudāšanu, un ar pielūgšanu Es tos gribu vest un vadīt pie ūdens strautiem pa līdzenu ceļu, kur tie nepaklups; jo Es esmu Israēlim palicis par tēvu un Efraīms ir Mans pirmdzimtais.
10 Listen to the word of the Lord, O Gentiles, and announce it amid the islands that are far away, and say: “Whoever has scattered Israel will gather him, and he will guard him as a shepherd guards his flock.”
Klausiet Tā Kunga vārdu, jūs tautas, un sludiniet pa tām salām, kas tālu, un sakāt: kas Israēli izklīdinājis, Tas viņu atkal sapulcinās un to sargās kā gans savu ganāmo pulku.
11 For the Lord has redeemed Jacob, and he has freed him from the hand of one more powerful.
Jo Tas Kungs Jēkabu atpircis un viņu izglābis no rokas, kas bija stiprāka nekā viņš.
12 And they will arrive and give praise on Mount Zion. And they will flow together, to the good things of the Lord, over grain, and wine, and oil, and the offspring of cattle and herds. And their soul will be like an irrigated garden, and they will no longer be hungry.
Un tie nāks un gavilēs Ciānas kalnā un plūdīs pie Tā Kunga dāvanām, pie labības un pie vīna un pie eļļas un pie jauniem jēriem un vēršiem, un viņu dvēsele būs kā mitrs dārzs, un tie vairs nebūs noskumuši.
13 Then the virgin will rejoice with singing, the young and the old together, and I will turn their mourning into gladness, and I will console them and gladden them after their sorrow.
Tad jaunava priecāsies diedama un jaunekļi un sirmgalvji kopā. Jo Es pārvērtīšu viņu skumību par prieku un tos iepriecināšu un ielīksmošu pēc viņu noskumšanas
14 And I will inebriate the soul of the priests with fatness, and my people will be filled with my good things, says the Lord.”
Un Es mielošu priesteru dvēseli ar taukumiem, un Mani ļaudis taps pieēdināti ar Manu labumu, saka Tas Kungs.
15 Thus says the Lord: “A voice has been heard on high: of lamentation, mourning, and weeping; of Rachel crying for her sons and refusing to be consoled over them, because they are not.”
Tā saka Tas Kungs: brēkšana ir dzirdama Rāmā, žēlošanās un gauža raudāšana; Rahēle apraud savus bērnus, un negribās iepriecinājuma par saviem bērniem, jo to vairs nav.
16 Thus says the Lord: “Let your voice cease from crying and your eyes from tears. For there is a reward for your work, says the Lord. And they will return from the land of the enemy.
Tā saka Tas Kungs: atrauj savu balsi no raudāšanas un savas acis no asarām, jo tur ir alga tavam darbam, saka Tas Kungs; tie atgriezīsies no ienaidnieka zemes.
17 And there is hope for your very end, says the Lord. And the sons will return to their own borders.
Un cerība ir tavai nākamībai, saka Tas Kungs: jo tavi bērni nāks atpakaļ savās robežās.
18 Listening, I heard Ephraim going into captivity: ‘You have chastised me, and I was instructed, like a young untamed bull. Convert me, and I shall be converted. For you are the Lord my God.
Es klausīt esmu klausījies, ka Efraīms žēlojās: Tu mani esi pārmācījis, un es esmu pārmācīts kā nevaldāms teļš. Atgriez mani, tad es atgriezīšos. Jo Tu, Kungs, esi mans Dievs.
19 For after you converted me, I did penance. And after you revealed to me, I struck my thigh. I am confounded and ashamed. For I have endured the disgrace of my youth.’
Tiešām, kad es nogriezos, tad man nāca žēlums, un kad es to atzinu, tad es situ uz saviem gurniem, jo es esmu apkaunots un kaunā tapis, nesdams savas jaunības negodu.
20 Certainly, Ephraim is an honorable son to me; surely, he is a tender child. For I will still remember him, as in the time when I first spoke about him. Because my heart is stirred up over him, surely I will take pity on him, says the Lord.
Vai Efraīms Man nav dārgs dēls un mīļš bērns, ka cikkārt Es par viņu runāju, pieminēdams Es viņu pieminu? Tāpēc Mana sirds trīc par viņu, ka Es apžēlodamies par viņu apžēlojos, saka Tas Kungs.
21 Establish a watchtower for yourself. Place yourself in bitterness. Direct your heart into the upright way, in which you used to walk. Return, return, O virgin of Israel, to these your cities!
Uzcel sev stabus, liec sev zīmes, un ņem vērā to ceļu, ko tu staigājis: Griezies atpakaļ, Israēla meita, griezies atpakaļ uz šīm savām pilsētām.
22 How long will you be absorbed in delights, O wandering daughter? For the Lord has created something new upon the earth: a woman will encompass a man.”
Cik ilgi tu maldīsies, tu atkāpēja meita? Jo Tas Kungs ir radījis ko jaunu virs zemes: sieva būs ap vīru.
23 Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: “Still they will speak this word in the land of Judah, and in its cities, when I will convert their captivity: ‘May the Lord bless you, the beauty of justice, the holy mountain.’
Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs: “šo vārdu tie vēl runās Jūda zemē un viņas pilsētās, kad Es atpakaļ vedīšu viņa cietumniekus: lai Tas Kungs tevi svētī, tu taisnības mājokli, tu svētais kalns!
24 And they will live in it: Judah together with all its cities, the farmer and those who drive the flocks.
Un Jūda ar visām savām pilsētām kopā tur dzīvos, arāji un kas staigā ar ganāmiem pulkiem.
25 For I have inebriated the weary soul, and I have satisfied every hungry soul.
Jo Es dzirdināšu iztvīkušo dvēseli un atspirdzināšu ikkatru noskumušu dvēseli.”
26 Over this, I was awakened, as if from a deep sleep. And I saw, and my sleep became sweet to me.
Tāpēc es uzmodos un skatījos, un mans miegs man bija gards.
27 Behold, the days are approaching, says the Lord, when I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the offspring of men and with the offspring of cattle.
Redzi, nāks dienas, saka Tas Kungs, ka Es Israēla namu un Jūda namu augļošu ar cilvēku dzimumu un ar lopu dzimumu.
28 And just as I have watched over them, so that I may root up, and tear down, and scatter, and destroy, and afflict, so will I watch over them, so that I may build and plant them, says the Lord.
Un kā Es pret tiem esmu bijis nomodā, tos izraudams un nolauzdams un postīdams un samaitādams un mocīdams, tā Es par tiem gribu nomodā būt, tos uztaisīdams un dēstīdams, saka Tas Kungs,
29 In those days, they will no longer say: ‘The fathers ate a bitter grape, and the teeth of the sons have been affected.’
Tanīs dienās vairs nesacīs: tēvi ēduši skābas vīnogas, un bērniem zobi apmizējuši.
30 Instead, each one will die for his own iniquity. Each man who will have eaten a bitter grape, his own teeth will be affected.
Bet ikvienam sava nozieguma dēļ būs mirt, ikviens cilvēks, kas ēd skābas vīnogas, tam zobi apmizēs.
31 Behold, the days are approaching, says the Lord, when I will form a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah,
Redzi, nāks dienas, saka Tas Kungs, ka Es jaunu derību celšu ar Israēla namu un ar Jūda namu,
32 not according to the covenant which I made with their fathers, in the day when I took them by the hand, so as to lead them away from the land of Egypt, the covenant which they nullified, though I was the ruler over them, says the Lord.
Ne tādu derību, kā esmu cēlis ar viņu tēviem, kad tos pie rokas satvēru un izvedu no Ēģiptes zemes; to Manu derību tie iznīcinājuši, tad Es arīdzan par tiem neesmu bēdājis, saka Tas Kungs.
33 But this will be the covenant that I will form with the house of Israel, after those days, says the Lord: I will give my law to their inner most being, and I will write it upon their heart. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
Bet šī ir tā derība, ko Es ar Israēla namu celšu pēc šīm dienām, saka Tas Kungs: Es došu Savu bauslību viņu prātā un to rakstīšu viņu sirdī, un Es tiem būšu par Dievu, un tie Man būs par tautu.
34 And they will no longer teach, a man his neighbor, and a man his brother, saying: ‘Know the Lord.’ For all will know me, from the littlest of them even to the greatest, says the Lord. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will no longer remember their sin.
Un tad draugs draugu vairs nemācīs nedz brālis brāli, sacīdams: atzīstiet To Kungu! Jo tie visi Mani atzīs, ir viņu mazie, ir viņu lielie, saka Tas Kungs. Jo Es piedošu viņu noziegumus un nepieminēšu vairs viņu grēkus.
35 Thus says the Lord, who gives the sun as the light of the day, who puts the moon and the stars in order as the light of the night, who stirs up the sea and makes its waves roar: the Lord of hosts is his name.
Tā saka Tas Kungs, kas sauli dienā dod pār spīdekli, mēnesi un zvaigznes pēc saviem likumiem par spīdekļiem naktī, kas jūru kustina, ka viņas viļņi kauc, Kungs Cebaot ir Viņa vārds:
36 If these laws fail in my sight, says the Lord, then the offspring of Israel will also fail, so that they will not be a people in my sight for all time.”
Kad šie likumi Manā priekšā zudīs, saka Tas Kungs, tad arī Israēla dzimums zudīs, ka nebūs vairs tauta Manā priekšā mūžīgi.
37 Thus says the Lord: “If the heavens above are able to be measured, and if the foundations of the earth beneath can be examined, I also will cast aside all the offspring of Israel, because of all that they have done, says the Lord.
Tā saka Tas Kungs: Kad debesis augšām varēs mērot un zemes dibenus apakšā varēs izmanīt, tad Es arī atmetīšu visu Israēla dzimumu, visa tā dēļ, ko tie darījuši, saka Tas Kungs.
38 Behold, the days are approaching, says the Lord, when a city will be built for the Lord from the tower of Hananel, even to the Gate of the Corner;
Redzi, nāks dienas, saka Tas Kungs, ka šī pilsēta Tam Kungam taps uzcelta no Hananeēļa torņa līdz stūru vārtiem.
39 and the measuring line will go on even further in his sight, over the hill of Gareb, and it will encircle Goah
Un mēra aukla izstiepsies tālāki uz priekšu līdz Gāreba pakalnam un griezīsies uz Goātu.
40 and the entire Valley of dead bodies and ashes, and the entire region of death, even to the torrent of Kedron, and to the corner of the Horse Gate to the east. All this will be the holy place of the Lord. It will not be rooted up, and it will not be torn down, anymore, forever.”
Un visa miroņu un pelnu ieleja, un visi tīrumi līdz Kidronas upei, līdz zirgu vārtu stūrim pret rītiem, būs Tam Kungam svēti; tur vairs neko neizdeldēs nedz nolauzīs ne mūžam.
