Isaiah 17
1 The doom of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is deprived of being a city, and it shall become decaying ruins.
Spriedums par Damasku: Redzi, Damaska taps nomesta, ka vairs nav pilsēta, bet sagruvusi akmeņu kopa.
2 Forsaken are the cities of 'Aro'er: they shall be [given up] to flocks, which shall lie down, and none shall make them afraid.
Aroēra pilsētas būs atstātas ganāmiem pulkiem; tie tur apmetīsies un neviens tos neizbiedēs.
3 And there shall cease the fortress from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Syria: like the glory of the children of Israel shall they be, saith the Lord of hosts.
Un stiprums zudīs no Efraīma un valdīšana no Damaskas, un kas no Sīriešiem atlikuši, tie būs kā Israēla bērnu godība, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
4 And it shall come to pass on that day, that the glory of Jacob shall vanish, and the fatness of his flesh shall become lean.
Un notiks tai dienā, ka Jēkaba godība ies mazumā, un viņa treknā miesa izdils.
5 And it shall be as when the harvestman gathereth the standing-corn, and reapeth the ears with his arm; and it shall be as when one gleaneth ears in the valley of Rephaim.
Jo tā būs, kā pļāvējs sakampj labību, un viņa roka pļauj vārpas, un būs, kā kad vārpas lasa Refaīm ielejā.
6 And there shall be left on it gleaning-fruit, as one shaketh an olive-tree, two or three berries on the top of the uppermost bough, four or five on the outmost branches of a fruitful tree, saith the Lord the God of Israel.
Tomēr atlikums tur atliksies, kā pie eļļas koka, kad to nokrata, kādas divas trīs ogas pašā koka galā, un kādas četras piecas pie viņa auglīgiem zariem, saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs.
7 On that day shall a man turn his regard up to his Maker, and his eyes shall look toward the Holy One of Israel.
Tanī dienā cilvēks skatīsies uz savu Radītāju, un viņa acis raudzīsies uz to Svēto iekš Israēla.
8 And he shall not turn his regard to the altars, the work of his hands; and he shall not look at what his fingers have made, both the groves and the sun-images.
Un neskatīsies uz tiem altāriem, ko paša rokas cēlušas, un neraudzīsies uz to, ko viņa pirksti ir taisījuši, nedz uz tām Ašerām nedz uz tiem saules stabiem.
9 On that day shall his strong cities be as a forsaken ruin in a forest, and on a mountain-peak, which they left because of the children of Israel: and the land shall be desolate.
Tanī dienā viņa stiprās pilsētas būs kā mežos un kalnos sagruvušas pilis, ko tie atstājuši, no Israēla bērniem bēgdami, un būs posts.
10 Because thou hast forgotten the God of thy salvation, and the rock of thy strength thou hast not remembered; therefore wouldst thou plant luxuriant plantings, and wouldst set out the shoots of the stranger therein.
Jo tu esi aizmirsis Dievu, savu Pestītāju, un neesi pieminējis sava patvēruma klinti.
11 [Already] on the day that thou plantedst thou causedst to grow, and in the morning thou madest thy seed to blossom; but now fleeth the harvest on the day of disease and of incurable pain.
Tādēļ tu gan stādīji skaistus dārzus un apstādīji ar svešas zemes stādiem. Tai dienā, kad tu tos stādīji, tu tos gan apkopi, un strādāji, ka tavam sējumam agri bija jāzied, bet tas pļaujamais iznīks bēdu laikā un nāves skumjās.
12 Woe to the raging of many people, who rage like the raging of the seas; and to the noise of nations, that make a noise like the roar of mighty waters!
Vai, lielu tautu rūkšana, kas kauc, kā jūra kauc, un ļaužu pulku troksnis, kas rūc, kā vareni ūdeņi krāc.
13 The nations will make a noise like the roaring of many waters; but He will rebuke it, and it shall flee afar off, and shall be chased as the chaff of the mountains before the wind, and as thistle-down before the tempest.
Tautas rūc, kā lieli ūdeņi krāc, bet Viņš to aprāj, un tas bēg tālu nost un top dzenāts kā pelus pa kalniem no vēja, kā putekļi no viesuļa.
14 At eveningtide, behold, there is trouble; before yet it is morning it is no more. This is the portion of our spoilers, and the lot of those that plunder us.
Vakara laikā, - redzi, briesmas; pirms gaisma aust, pagalam! Šī ir tā alga mūsu laupītājiem, un tā tiesa mūsu postītājiem.
