Joel 3
1 For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I will cause to return the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,
Jo redzi, tanīs dienās un tanī laikā, kad Es Jūda un Jeruzālemes cietumu atgriezīšu,
2 Then will I assemble all the nations, and I will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and I will hold judgment with them there because of my people and my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and for my land [which] they have divided out.
Tad Es sapulcināšu visus pagānus un tos novedīšu uz Jehošafata ieleju un tur ar tiem tiesāšos Savu ļaužu dēļ un Sava īpašuma, Israēla, dēļ, ko tie izkaisījuši tautu starpā un izdalījuši Manu zemi.
3 And for my people did they cast lots; and gave a boy for a harlot, and sold a girl for wine, and drank it.
Un par Maniem ļaudīm tie meslus metuši un puisēnu devuši par mauku un meiteni pārdevuši par vīnu un ir dzēruši.
4 And also ye, what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Zidon, and all ye districts of Philistia? is this the recompense which ye repay me? or do ye only commence to render me evil?— swiftly and speedily will I bring back your recompense upon your own head;
Un jūs no Tirus un Sidonas un visām Fīlistu robežām, kas jums ar Mani? Vai jūs Man ko gribat atdarīt, ko Es jums darījis, jeb vai jūs Man ko gribat padarīt? Ātri un piepeši Es to atmaksāšu uz jūsu galvu.
5 Because my silver and my gold have ye taken, and the handsomest of my precious things have ye carried into your temples;
Tāpēc ka jūs esat laupījuši Manu sudrabu un Manu zeltu, un Manus dārgumus nesuši savu dievekļu namos;
6 And the children of Judah and the children of Jerusalem have ye sold unto the sons of the Jevanim, in order to remove them far from their borders.
Un Jūda bērnus un Jeruzālemes bērnus jūs esat pārdevuši Grieķiem, tos tālu aizdzīt no viņa robežām:
7 Behold, I will awaken them out of the place whither ye have sold them, and I will bring back your recompense upon your own head;
Redzi, Es tos uzmodināšu no tās vietas, kurp jūs tos esat pārdevuši, un atmaksāšu jūsu maksu uz jūsu galvām.
8 And I will deliver your sons and your daughters into the hand of the children of Judah, and they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a nation far off; for the Lord hath spoken it.
Un Es jūsu dēlus un jūsu meitas pārdošu Jūdu bērniem rokā; tie tos pārdos uz Sabu, tautai, kas tālu dzīvo, - jo Tas Kungs to ir runājis.
9 Proclaim ye this among the nations, Prepare war, wake up the mighty men; let them draw near; let them come up—all the men of war.
Izsauciet to starp pagāniem, svētījiet karu, pamodinājiet tos varenos, lai atnāk un ceļas visi karavīri.
10 Beat your plough-shares into swords, and your pruning-knives into spears: let the weak say, I am a hero.
Kaļat savus lemešus par zobeniem un savas cirpes par šķēpiem! Vājais lai saka: es esmu stiprs!
11 Assemble hastily together, and come, all ye nations from every side, and gather yourselves together: there doth the Lord strike down thy mighty ones.
Sapulcējaties un nāciet šurp, visas tautas visapkārt, un sakrājaties! Turp noved, Kungs, savus varenos!
12 Let the nations awake, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat; for there will I sit to judge all the nations from every side.
Tautas lai ceļas un sanāk Jehošafata ielejā, jo tur Es sēdēšu un tiesāšu visas tautas visapkārt.
13 Put forth the sickle; for the harvest is ripe: come, tread down [the grapes]; for the press is full; the vats overflow; for great is their wickedness.
Pieliekat cirpi, jo pļaujamais ir gatavs; nāciet, minat, jo vīna spaids ir pilns, un trauki tek pāri, jo viņu blēdība ir liela.
14 Multitudes, multitudes are in the valley of decision; for near is the day of the Lord in the valley of decision.
Troksnis, troksnis tai tiesas ielejā, jo Tā Kunga diena ir tuvu klāt tiesas ielejā.
15 Sun and moon are obscured, and stars withdraw their brightness.
Saule un mēnesis aptumšojās un zvaigznes ierauj savu spožumu.
16 And the Lord will cry aloud out of Zion, and from Jerusalem will he send forth his voice; and the heavens and the earth shall quake; but the Lord will be a refuge for his people, and a stronghold for the children of Israel.
Un Tas Kungs rūc no Ciānas, un no Jeruzālemes viņš paceļ Savu balsi, tā ka debess un zeme dreb. Bet Tas Kungs ir patvērums Saviem ļaudīm un stiprums Israēla bērniem.
17 So shall ye know that I am the Lord your God, dwelling on Zion, my holy mount: and Jerusalem shall be holy, and strangers shall not pass through her any more.
Un jūs manīsiet, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, kas dzīvo Ciānā, Savā svētā kalnā, un Jeruzāleme būs svēta vieta, un sveši tur vairs neies cauri.
18 And it came to pass on that day, that the mountains shall drop down sweet new wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the ravines of Judah shall flow with water; and a spring shall come forth out of the house of the Lord, and shall water the valley of Shittim.
Un tai dienā pilēs salds vīns no kalniem un piens tecēs no pakalniem, un visi Jūda strauti būs pilni ūdens, un avots izlēks no Tā Kunga nama, tas slacinās visu Sitimas ieleju.
19 Egypt shall become a desolate land, and Edom shall become a desolate wilderness; because of the violence against the children of Judah, in whose land they have shed innocent blood.
Ēģipte taps postā un Edoms par tukšu vietu, tā varas darba dēļ, kas darīts pie Jūda bērniem, kuru zemē tie izlējuši nenoziedzīgas asinis.
20 But Judah shall be inhabited for ever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.
Bet Jūda pastāvēs mūžīgi un Jeruzāleme uz cilšu ciltīm.
21 And I will avenge their blood that I have not yet avenged; for the Lord dwelleth in Zion.
Un Es atriebšu tās asinis, ko Es vēl nebiju atriebis. Un Tas Kungs dzīvos Ciānā.
