< Isaiah 55 >
1 Ho, every one that thirsts, come all of you to the waters, and he that has no money; come all of you, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
Nu tad, visi iztvīkušie, nāciet pie ūdens, un kam naudas nav, nāciet, pērciet un ēdiet, nāciet un pērciet bez naudas un bez maksas, vīnu un pienu.
2 Wherefore do all of you spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfies not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat all of you that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
Kāpēc jūs naudu nosverat par to, kas maize nav, un savu pelņu par to, no kā nevar paēst? Klausāties, klausāties uz Mani tad baudīsiet labumu un jūsu dvēsele atspirdzināsies taukumos.
3 Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.
Griežat šurp savu ausi un nāciet pie Manis, klausiet, tad jūsu dvēsele dzīvos! Jo Es jums celšu mūžīgu derību: Dāvida pastāvīgās apžēlošanas.
4 Behold, I have given him for a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people.
Redzi, Es viņu esmu iecēlis tautām par liecinieku, tautām par virsnieku un valdītāju.
5 Behold, you shall call a nation that you know not, and nations that knew not you shall run unto you because of the LORD your God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he has glorified you.
Redzi, tu sauksi tautas, ko nepazini, un ļaudis, kas tevi nepazina, pie tevis steigsies, Tā Kunga, tava Dieva, Israēla Svētā, dēļ, jo Tas tevi pagodinājis.
6 Seek all of you the LORD while he may be found, call all of you upon him while he is near:
Meklējiet To Kungu, kamēr Tas atrodams, piesauciet Viņu, kamēr Tas tuvu.
7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
Lai bezdievīgais atstāj savu ceļu un ļaundarītājs savas domas un atgriežas pie Tā Kunga, tad Viņš par to apžēlosies un pie mūsu Dieva, jo pie Viņa ir daudz piedošanas.
8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, says the LORD.
Jo Manas domas nav jūsu domas un jūsu ceļi nav Mani ceļi, saka Tas Kungs.
9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Jo tā kā debesis augstākas nekā zeme, tā Mani ceļi augstāki nekā jūsu ceļi, un Manas domas nekā jūsu domas.
10 For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, and returns not thither, but waters the earth, and makes it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
Jo tā kā lietus un sniegs nāk no debesīm un turp neatgriežas, bet slapina zemi un dara to auglīgu un zaļojam, ka tā dod sēklu sējējam un maizi ēdējam,
11 So shall my word be that goes forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
Tāpat būs Mans vārds, kas iziet no Manas mutes; tas neatgriezīsies pie Manis tukšs, bet darīs, kas Man patīk, un izdosies labi, par ko Es to sūtu.
12 For all of you shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
Jo ar prieku jūs iziesiet un ar mieru jūs tapsiet vadīti, kalni un pakalni jūsu priekšā gavilēs gavilēdami, un visi koki laukā plaukšķinās.
13 Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.
Ērkšķu vietā uzaugs priedes, un dadžu vietā uzaugs mirtes, un tas Tam Kungam būs par slavu un par mūžīgu zīmi, kas netaps izdeldēta.
