Malachi 1
1 The prophecy of the word of the Lord to Israel by means of Malachi.
Tā Kunga vārda spriedums par Israēli caur Malahiju.
2 I have loved you, so hath said the Lord: yet ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? Is not Esau brother to Jacob? saith the Lord: yet I loved Jacob;
Es jūs esmu mīlējis, saka Tas Kungs; bet jūs sakāt: kā Tu mūs esi mīlējis? Vai Ēsavs nav Jēkabam brālis? Saka Tas Kungs; tomēr Es Jēkabu mīlēju
3 And Esau I hated; and I rendered his mountains a desert, and his heritage a dwelling for the monsters of the wilderness.
Un Ēsavu Es ienīdēju un viņa kalnus darīju par posta vietu un viņa mantas tiesu priekš šakāļiem tuksnesī.
4 Should Edom even say, We are impoverished; but we will return and build the ruined places: thus hath said the Lord of hosts, They may indeed build, but I will surely throw down; and men shall call them, The territory of wickedness, and, The people against whom the Lord hath indignation to eternity.
Un jebšu Edoms sacītu: mēs esam salauzti, tomēr tās posta vietas atkal gribam uztaisīt, - tad Tas Kungs Cebaot saka tā: tie uztaisīs, bet Es noārdīšu, un tos nosauks par bezdievības robežām un par ļaudīm, par ko Tas Kungs mūžīgi dusmo.
5 And your eyes shall see it; and ye shall then say, The Lord will be magnified beyond the territory of Israel.
Un jūsu acis to redzēs, un jūs sacīsiet: Tas Kungs pagodināsies pāri pār Israēla robežām. -
6 A son honoreth his father, and a servant his master: if then I be a father, where is my honor? and if I be a master, where is my fear? saith the Lord of hosts unto you, O priests, that despise my name; and ye say, wherein have we despised thy name?
Dēlam būs godāt savu tēvu, un kalpam savu kungu. Ja Es esmu Tēvs, kur ir Mans gods? Un ja Es esmu Kungs, kur ir Mana bijāšana? saka Tas Kungs Cebaot uz jums priesteriem, Mana Vārda nicinātajiem; bet jūs sakāt: kā tad mēs nicinājam Tavu Vārdu?
7 Ye offer upon my altar polluted bread; and ye say, Wherein have we polluted thee? In that ye say, The table of the Lord is contemptible.
Jūs nesat uz Manu altāri sagānītu maizi. Tad jūs sakāt: ar ko mēs Tevi sagānījām? Ar to, ka jūs sakāt: Tā Kunga galds nav cienījams.
8 And if ye bring near the blind to sacrifice it, is this not evil? and if ye bring near the lame and the sick, is this not evil? do but present it unto thy governor, will he be pleased with thee, or receive thee with favor? saith the Lord of hosts.
Jo kad jūs ko aklu atnesat upurēt, tad tas jums nav nelabs, un ja jūs ko tizlu vai vāju atnesat, tad tas nav nelabs. Atnesat to jel savam valdītājam, vai viņam pie tevis būs labs prāts, jeb vai viņš tavu vaigu žēlīgi uzlūkos? saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
9 And now, I pray you, beseech the presence of God that he may be gracious unto us; from your hand hath this thing come: will he receive one of you with favor? saith the Lord of hosts.
Nu tad pielūdziet jel Dieva vaigu, lai Viņš mums ir žēlīgs. No jūsu rokas tas noticis: vai tad Viņš jūsu vaigu žēlīgi uzskatīs? saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
10 Oh that there were some one among you that would lock up the doors [of the sanctuary], that ye might not light up my altar for nought: I have no pleasure in you, saith the Lord of hosts, neither will I accept in favor an offering from your hand.
Kaut jel kāds būtu jūsu starpā, kas durvis aizslēdz, lai jūs velti uguni neiededzinājāt uz Mana altāra; Man nav labs prāts pie jums, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, un tas upuris no jūsu rokām Man nepatīk.
11 For from the rising of the sun even unto his going down my name is great among the nations; and in every place incense is burnt and there is offered unto my name, even a pure offering; for great is my name among the nations, saith the Lord of hosts.
Jo no saules uzlēkšanas līdz noiešanai Mans Vārds ir paaugstināts starp tautām, un ikkatrā vietā Manam Vārdam top kvēpināts un šķīsts upuris atnests. Jo Mans Vārds ir liels starp tautām, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
12 But ye profane it, in that ye say, The table of the Lord is polluted, and by the assertion, Its food is contemptible.
Bet jūs to sagānat, sacīdami: Tā Kunga galds, tas ir sagānīts, un viņa ienākumu riebj baudīt.
13 And ye have said, Behold, what a wearisome task is it! and ye have left it to famish, saith the Lord of hosts; and ye have brought what was robbed, and the lame, and the sick, and thus ye have brought an offering: should I accept this in favor from your hand? saith the Lord.
Un jūs sakāt: redzi, kāds grūtums! Un nebēdājat par to, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, jūs atnesat, kas ir laupīts, un kas tizls un vājš, un tā upurējat upuri. Vai tas Man var patikt no jūsu rokas? saka Tas Kungs.
14 But cursed be the deceiver, who hath in his flock a male, and voweth, and sacrificeth a corrupt thing unto the Lord; for I am a great king, saith the Lord of hosts, and my name is feared among the nations.
Nolādēts tas blēdis, kam savā ganāma pulkā ir auniņš, un kas sola un upurē Tam Kungam ko maitātu! Jo Es esmu liels Ķēniņš, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: un Mans Vārds ir bijājams starp tautām.
