< Isaiah 37 >
1 And it came to pass, when king Hezekiah heard it, that he rent his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of the Lord.
Kad nu ķēniņš Hizkija to dzirdēja, tad viņš saplēsa savas drēbes un apsedzās ar maisu un gāja Tā Kunga namā,
2 And he sent Elyakim, who was superintendent over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the son of Amoz, the prophet.
Un sūtīja nama uzraugu Elijaķimu un skrīveri Šebnu un tos priesteru vecajus, maisos ģērbušos, pie pravieša Jesajas, Amoca dēla.
3 And they said unto him, Thus hath said Hezekiah, A day of trouble, and of rebuke, and of derision is this day; for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth.
Un tie uz viņu sacīja: Tā saka Hizkija: Šī diena ir bēdu- un sodības- un kauna- diena; jo bērni nākuši uz dzimšanu, un spēka nav dzemdēt.
4 Perhaps the Lord thy God will hear the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master hath sent to blaspheme the living God, and who hath reproached with the words which the Lord thy God hath heard: wherefore lift up a prayer for the remnant that is still found here.
Kaut Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, dzirdētu Rabzakus vārdus, ko viņa kungs, Asīrijas ķēniņš, ir sūtījis, zaimot to dzīvo Dievu, un pārmācītu par tiem vārdiem, ko Viņš ir dzirdējis, Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs! Celies tad un lūdz par tiem atlikušiem, kas vēl atrodas.
5 And the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
Un ķēniņa Hizkijas kalpi nāca pie Jesajas.
6 And Isaiah said unto them, Thus shall ye say unto your master, Thus hath said the Lord, Be not afraid because of the words which thou hast heard, with which the boys of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.
Un Jesaja uz tiem sacīja: tā jums būs sacīt savam kungam: tā saka Tas Kungs: nebīsties par tiem vārdiem, ko tu esi dzirdējis, ar ko Asīrijas ķēniņa sulaiņi Mani zaimojuši.
7 Behold, I will put an [other] spirit in him, and when he will hear a rumor, he shall return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.
Redzi, Es tam došu tādu garu, ka tas dzirdēs baumas un ies atpakaļ uz savu zemi, un Es viņam likšu krist caur zobenu viņa zemē.
8 And Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah; for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.
Tad Rabzakus gāja atpakaļ un atrada Asīrijas ķēniņu pret Libnu karojam, jo viņš bija dzirdējis, ka tas no Laķisa jau bija aizgājis.
9 And he heard it said of Thirhakah the king of Ethiopia, He is come out to fight with thee. And when he had heard it, he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying,
Un viņš par Tiraku, Moru ķēniņu, dzirdēja sakām: viņš ir izgājis, ar tevi karot.
10 Thus shall ye say to Hezekiah the king of Judah, as followeth, Let not thy God, in whom thou trustest, deceive thee, saying, Jerusalem shall not be given up into the hand of the king of Assyria.
Kad viņš to dzirdēja, tad viņš atkal sūtīja vēstnešus pie Hizkijas un sacīja: tā runājiet uz Hizkiju, Jūda ķēniņu, un sakāt: lai tevi nepieviļ tavs Dievs, uz ko tu paļaujies sacīdams: Jeruzāleme netaps dota Asīrijas ķēniņa rokā.
11 Behold, thou thyself hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all the lands by destroying them utterly: and thou alone shouldst be delivered?
Redzi, tu esi dzirdējis, ko Asīrijas ķēniņi darījuši visām zemēm, tās izdeldēdami; un tu domā izglābties?
12 Have the gods of the nations which my fathers destroyed delivered them, as Gozan, and Charan, and Rezeph, and the children of 'Eden, who were in Thelassar?
Vai pagānu dievi tos glābuši, ko mani tēvi postījuši, Gozanu un Haranu un Recevu un Edeņa bērnus, kas bija Telasarā.
13 Where is the king of Chamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvayim, of Hena', and 'Ivvah?
Kur ir Hamatas ķēniņš un Arpadas ķēniņš un Sefarvaimas pilsētas, Enas un Ivas ķēniņš?
14 And Hezekiah took the letter out of the hand of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up unto the house of the Lord, and spread it out before the Lord.
Kad nu Hizkija bija dabūjis tās grāmatas no vēstneša rokas un tās izlasījis, tad viņš gāja Tā Kunga namā, un Hizkija tās atpleta Tā Kunga priekšā.
15 And Hezekiah prayed unto the Lord, saying,
Un Hizkija pielūdza Tā Kunga priekšā un sacīja:
16 O Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, who dwellest between the cherubim, thou art the [true] God, thou alone, for all the kingdoms of the earth; [for] it is thou who hast made the heavens and earth.
Ak Kungs Cebaot, Tu Israēla Dievs, kas sēž pār ķerubiem, Tu viens pats esi Dievs pār visām zemes valstīm, Tu esi radījis debesis un zemi.
17 Bend down, O Lord, thy ear, and hear; open, O Lord, thy eye, and see: and hear all the words of Sennacherib, which he hath sent to blaspheme the living God.
Atgriez, ak Kungs, Savas ausis un klausies, atveri, ak Kungs, Savas acis un redzi, un dzirdi visus Sanheriba vārdus, ko viņš sūtījis, zaimot to dzīvo Dievu.
18 Truly, Lord, the kings of Assyria have devastated all the nations, and their land;
Patiesi, Kungs, Asīrijas ķēniņi ir postījuši visas zemes malas ar visām viņu valstīm,
19 And they have placed their gods into the fire; for they are no gods, but the work of man's hands, wood and stone; and these have they destroyed.
Un viņu dievus metuši ugunī, jo tie nebija dievi, bet cilvēku roku darbs, koks un akmens, tāpēc tie tos ir postījuši.
20 And now, O Lord our God, save us out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the Lord, thou alone.
Nu tad, ak Kungs, mūsu Dievs, izglāb mūs jel no viņa rokas, lai visas valstis virs zemes atzīst, ka Tu vien esi Tas Kungs.
21 Then sent Isaiah the son of Amoz unto Hezekiah, saying, Thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, Whereas thou hast prayed to me concerning Sennacherib the king of Assyria:
Tad Jesaja, Amoca dēls, sūtīja pie Hizkijas un lika sacīt: Tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs: par ko tu Mani esi pielūdzis pret Sanheribu, Asīrijas ķēniņu, -
22 This is the word that the Lord hath spoken over him: She despiseth thee, she laugheth thee to scorn, the virgin daughter of Zion; behind she shaketh her head, the daughter of Jerusalem.
Šis ir tas vārds, ko Tas Kungs pret viņu runājis: tevi nievā, tevi apsmej jaunava Ciānas meita, aiz tevis galvu krata Jeruzālemes meita.
23 Whom hast thou blasphemed, and [whom] hast thou scorned? and against whom hast thou raised thy voice, and lifted up thy eyes on high? against the Holy One of Israel.
Ko tu esi apsmējis un zaimojis, un pret ko tu esi pacēlis balsi un augsti uzcēlis savas acis? Pret To Svēto iekš Israēla.
24 Through thy servants hast thou blasphemed the Lord, and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots am I indeed come up to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon; and I will cut down its tall cedars, the choice of its fir-trees: and I will enter into the height of its summit, the forest of its fruitful soil.
Caur saviem kalpiem tu To Kungu esi apmēdījis un sacījis: ar savu ratu pulku es uzkāpju kalnu galos, Lībanus virsgalā, un izcērtu viņa augstos ciedru kokus un izlasītās priedes, un tieku līdz pat viņa galam, viņa kuplākam mežam.
25 I have dug, and drunk water; and I will dry up with the sole of my feet all the streams of besieged places.
Es roku un dzeru ūdeni un no manu kāju pēdām paliek sausas visas Ēģiptes upes.
26 Hadst thou not heard, that in distant ages I had prepared this? in the times of antiquity when I formed it? now have I brought it along, and it came to pass to desolate into ruinous heaps fortified cities.
Vai tu neesi dzirdējis, ka Es jau sen iepriekš to esmu sataisījis, jau vecos laikos to esmu apņēmies. Un tagad Es tam esmu licis notikt, ka tu izposti stipras pilsētas un dari par akmeņu kopām.
27 And thus their inhabitants were of short power, they were discouraged and confounded: they were as the herbs of the field, and as the green grass; as the moss on the housetops, and as corn blasted before the ear appeareth.
Tāpēc viņu iedzīvotājiem nogura rokas, un tie iztrūcinājās un tapa kaunā, un tie bija ka zāle laukā un kā uzzēlis zaļums, tā kā zāle uz jumtiem, kā rūsaina labība, pirms nāk stiebros.
28 But thy abiding, and thy going out, and thy coming in do I know, and thy raging against me.
Bet Es zinu tavu sēdēšanu un tavu iziešanu un tavu ieiešanu un tavu trakošanu pret Mani.
29 Because of thy raging against me, and thy tumult, that is come up into my ears, will I put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle between thy lips, and I will cause thee to turn back on the way by which thou camest.
Tavas trakošanas dēļ pret Mani un tavas pārgalvības pēc, kas nākusi Manās ausīs, Es Savu kāsi likšu tavās nāsīs un Savus laužņus tavā mutē, un Es tev likšu griezties atpakaļ pa to ceļu, kur tu esi nācis.
30 And this shall be unto thee the sign, Ye shall eat this year what groweth of itself, and in the second year what springeth after the same; and in the third year sow, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.
Un tas tev būs par zīmi: šai gadā ēdīs papuvē augušu un otrā gadā ataugu, bet trešā gadā sējat un pļaujat un stādāt vīna dārzus un ēdat viņu augļus.
31 And the remnant of the house of Judah that is escaped shall yet strike root downward, and bear fruit upward.
Un kas no Jūda nama ir izglābts un atlicis, sakņos atkal zemjup un nesīs augļus augšup.
32 For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and that which escapeth out of Mount Zion: the zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.
Jo no Jeruzālemes izies atlikuši un atpestīti no Ciānas kalna. To darīs Tā Kunga Cebaot karstums.
33 Therefore thus hath said the Lord concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, and he shall not shoot an arrow thereon, nor come before it with shields, nor cast up an embankment against it.
Tādēļ tā saka Tas Kungs par Asīrijas ķēniņu: viņš šai pilsētā nenāks un tanī neiešaus nevienu bultu un nepacels pret to priekšturamās bruņas un neuzmetīs pret to valni.
34 On the way by which he came, by the same shall he return, and into this city shall he not come, saith the Lord.
Pa to pašu ceļu, kur viņš nācis, viņam būs griezties atpakaļ, bet šai pilsētā viņš nenāks, saka Tas Kungs.
35 And I will shield this city to save it for my own sake, and for the sake of David my servant.
Jo Es šo pilsētu paglabāšu un izpestīšu, Sevis labad un Sava kalpa Dāvida labad.
36 Then went out an angel of the Lord, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians one hundred and eighty and five thousand men; and when people arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.
Tad Tā Kunga eņģelis izgāja un nokāva Asiriešu lēģerī simts astoņdesmit piecus tūkstošus. Un kad no rīta agri cēlās, redzi, tad tur viss bija pilns miroņu.
37 And Sennacherib the king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh.
Tā Sanheribs, Asīrijas ķēniņš, aizgāja un gāja projām un griezās atpakaļ un palika Ninivē.
38 And it came to pass, as he was prostrating himself in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Ararat. And Essar-chaddon his son became king in his stead.
Un kad viņš pielūdza Nizroka, sava dieva, namā, tad Adrameleķs un Sarecers, viņa dēli, to nokāva ar zobenu un aizbēga uz Ararat zemi. Un viņa dēls Asaradons palika par ķēniņu viņa vietā.
