Isaiah 16
1 Send ye the lambs of the ruler of the land from Sela', through the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion.
Sūtait jērus zemes valdītājam no Zelas pa tuksnesi uz Ciānas meitas kalnu.
2 For it shall be, that, as a fugitive bird, as a chased nest, so shall be the daughters of Moab at the fords of Arnon.
Jo kā putni no ligzdas izdzīti skraida, tā būs Moaba meitas pie Arnonas pārceļamām vietām.
3 Bring counsel, execute justice; render like the night thy shadow in the midst of the noonday; conceal the outcasts; betray not the fugitive.
Dodiet padomu, nesiet tiesu, dariet pavēni pašā dienas vidū kā naktī; apslēp izdzītos, nedari bēdzēju zināmu!
4 Let my outcasts sojourn with thee, Moab; be thou a covert to them from the face of the waster: till ceaseth the extortion, past be the wasting, and vanished be the oppressor out of the land.
Lai mani izdzītie tavā starpā piemīt, Moab, esi tu viņiem par patvērumu no postītāja! Jo spaidītājam nāks gals, postīšana beigsies, saminēji no zemes taps izdeldēti.
5 And there shall be founded through kindness a throne; and there shall sit upon it in truthfulness in the tent of David a judge who seeketh justice, and is quick in righteousness.
Un goda krēsls ir stiprināts caur žēlastību, un uz tā sēž ar patiesību Dāvida dzīvoklī tas, kas tiesu spriež un tiesu kopj un prot taisnību.
6 We have heard of the pride of Moab; [that] he is very proud: of his haughtiness, and his pride, and his wrath, his groundless lies.
Moaba lepnību esam dzirdējuši, ka tas ļoti lepns, viņa augstprātību un lepnību un viņa pārgalvību un viņa tukšo lielību.
7 Therefore shall Moab wail for Moab, every one shall wail; for the strong walls of Kir-charesseth shall ye lament, deeply stricken.
Tādēļ Moabs kauks par Moabu, visi kopā kauks; par Ķirarezetes pamatiem jūs nopūtīsieties, tie pavisam salauzīti.
8 For the fields of Cheshbon are withered, the vine of Sibmah —the lords of nations have beaten down its branches, they did reach as far as Ya'zer, into the wilderness did they wander; its tendrils were stretched forth, they passed over the sea.
Jo Hešbonas druvas postītas, arī Sibmas vīna koks - tautu valdnieki saminuši viņa brangos stādus, tie sniedzās līdz Jaēzerai un stiepās pa tuksnesi, viņa zari izplētās un cēlās pār jūru.
9 Therefore will I weep, when weeping for Ya'zer, for the vine of Sibmah: I will moisten thee richly with my tears, O Cheshbon, and El'aleh; for over [the gathering of] thy summer fruits and over thy harvest the battle-cry is fallen.
Tāpēc es gauži raudu kā Jaēzera par Sibmas vīna koku; es tevi slacināju ar savām asarām, Hešbona un Eleale; jo pār taviem vasaras augļiem un pār tavu pļaušanu nākusi kara kliegšana.
10 And [thus] are taken away joy and gladness out of the fruitful field; and in the vineyards shall be no singing, shall be no joyful shout: in the presses shall the treader not tread out wine; I have stopped the harvest-call.
Tā ka prieks un līksmība atņemti no dārziem, un vīna kalnos nedzied un negavilē. Vīna spiedējs vīna nemin vīna spaidā, prieka dziesmām esmu licis mitēties.
11 Therefore my bowels shall groan for Moab like a harp, and my inward parts for Kir-charess.
Tāpēc manas iekšas trīc par Moabu kā kokle un mana sirds par Ķirarezeti.
12 And it shall come to pass, that it shall be seen that Moab is weary on the high-places; and he will come to his sanctuary to pray; but he shall not accomplish [aught].
Un notiks, kad Moabs rādīsies un nomocīsies elku kalnā un ies pielūgt savā svētā vietā, tad viņš nespēs nenieka.
13 This is the word that the Lord hath spoken concerning Moab in former times.
Šis ir tas vārds, ko Tas Kungs ir runājis pret Moabu sen laiku.
14 But now hath the Lord spoken, saying, Within three years, as the years of a hired laborer, shall the glory of Moab be rendered mean with all this [his] great multitude; and the remnant shall be very small and inconsiderable.
Bet nu Tas Kungs runā un saka: pa trim gadiem, kādi ir algādža gadi, Moaba godība taps kaunā ar visu lielo ļaužu pulku, un kas atliek, to būs gauži maz, ne daudz.
