< Daniel 4 >
1 “Nebuchadnezzar the king to all peoples, nations, and languages, who are dwelling in all the earth: Your peace be great!
Ķēniņš Nebukadnecars visiem ļaudīm, tautām un mēlēm, kas dzīvo pa visu zemi: miers lai jums ir papilnam!
2 The signs and wonders that God Most High has done with me, it is good before me to show.
Man ir paticis izsludināt tās zīmes un tos brīnumus, ko tas visuaugstākais Dievs pie manis darījis.
3 How great His signs! And how mighty His wonders! His kingdom [is] a continuous kingdom, and His rule [is] with generation and generation.
Jo Viņa zīmes ir lielas un Viņa brīnumi ir vareni, Viņa valstība ir mūžīga valstība un Viņa valdīšana paliek līdz radu radiem.
4 I, Nebuchadnezzar, have been at rest in my house, and flourishing in my palace:
Es, Nebukadnecars, dzīvoju droši savā namā un laimīgi savā pilī.
5 a dream I have seen, and it makes me afraid, and the conceptions on my bed, and the visions of my head, trouble me.
Tad es redzēju sapni, kas mani izbiedēja, un tās domas, ko es savā gultā domāju, un manas galvas parādīšanas mani iztrūcināja.
6 And by me a decree is made, to cause all the wise men of Babylon to come up before me, that the interpretation of the dream they may cause me to know.
Un es pavēlēju visus Bābeles gudros atvest manā priekšā, lai tie man teiktu šī sapņa izstāstīšanu.
7 Then coming up are the scribes, the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers, and the dream I have told before them, and its interpretation they are not making known to me.
Tad tie gudrie, vārdotāji, Kaldeji un pareģi atnāca, un es tiem teicu to sapni, bet tie man to neizstāstīja,
8 And at last Daniel has come up before me, whose name [is] Belteshazzar—according to the name of my god—and in whom [is] the spirit of the holy gods, and the dream before him I have told:
Tiekams pēdīgi manā priekšā nāca Daniēls, ko sauc par Beltsacaru pēc mana dieva vārda un iekš kā ir to svēto dievu gars, un es tam teicu to sapni:
9 O Belteshazzar, master of the scribes, as I have known that the spirit of the holy gods [is] in you, and no secret presses you, the visions of my dream that I have seen, and its interpretation, tell.
Beltsacar, gudro virsniek, par ko es zinu, ka svēto dievu gars ir iekš tevis, un nekāds noslēpums tev nav grūts, tad saki nu mana sapņa parādīšanu, ko es esmu redzējis, un viņa izstāstīšanu.
10 As for the visions of my head on my bed, I was looking, and behold, a tree in the midst of the earth, and its height [is] great:
Bet tas ir, kas manam prātam rādījās uz manas gultas. Es skatījos, un redzi, viens koks bija zemes vidū, un tas bija ļoti augsts.
11 the tree has become great, indeed, strong, and its height reaches to the heavens, and its vision to the end of the whole land;
Tas koks bija liels un resns, un viņa augstums sniedzās līdz debesīm, un tas bija redzams līdz pasaules galam.
12 its leaves [are] beautiful, and its budding great, and food for all [is] in it: under it the beast of the field takes shade, and in its boughs dwell the birds of the heavens, and of it are all flesh fed.
Viņa zari bija skaisti, un viņa augļi bagāti, un barība tam bija priekš visiem; zemes zvēri apakš viņa atrada pavēni, un putni apakš debess dzīvoja uz viņa zariem, un visa miesa no tā barojās.
13 I was looking, in the visions of my head on my bed, and behold, a sifter, even a holy one, from the heavens is coming down.
Un es redzēju savas galvas parādīšanā uz savas gultas, un raugi, svēts sargs nonāca no debesīm.
14 He is calling mightily, and thus has said, Cut down the tree, and cut off its branches, shake off its leaves, and scatter its budding, move away let the beast from under it, and the birds from off its branches;
Tas sauca ar spēku un sacīja tā: nocērtiet to koku un apcērtiet viņa zarus un noplūciet viņa lapas un izkaisiet viņa augļus, lai zvēri apakš viņa aizbēg un putni no viņa zariem aizskrien.
15 but the stump of its roots leave in the earth, even with a band of iron and bronze, in the tender grass of the field, and with the dew of the heavens is it wet, and with the beasts [is] his portion in the herb of the earth;
Bet to celmu ar saknēm atstājiet zemē, bet vara un dzelzs pinekļos, lauka zālē, lai viņš no debess rasas top slacināts, un viņa daļa lai ir kā lopiem zāle laukā.
16 his heart from man’s is changed, and the heart of a beast is given to him, and seven times pass over him;
Viņa sirds lai top pārvērsta, ka vairs nav cilvēka sirds, un lopa sirds lai viņam top dota, kamēr septiņi laiki paiet pār viņu.
17 by the decree of the sifters [is] the sentence, and by the saying of the holy ones the requirement, to the intent that the living may know that the Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and to whom He wills He gives it, and the lowest of men He raises up over it.
Tas ir to sargu padoms, kas top sludināts, to svēto spriedums ir tā lieta; lai, kas dzīvo, atzīst, ka tam Visuvaldītājam vara ir pār cilvēku valstību, un viņš to dod, kam gribēdams, un pār to ieceļ to zemāko starp cilvēkiem.
18 This dream I have seen, I King Nebuchadnezzar; and you, O Belteshazzar, tell the interpretation, because that all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to cause me to know the interpretation, and you [are] able, for the spirit of the holy gods [is] in you.”
Šo sapni es, ķēniņš Nebukadnecars, esmu redzējis. Tu tad, Beltsacar, izstāsti to, tādēļ ka visi manas valsts gudrie man to nevar izstāstīt, bet tu to gan māki, tāpēc ka svēto dievu gars ir iekš tevis.
19 Then Daniel, whose name [is] Belteshazzar, has been astonished about one hour, and his thoughts trouble him; the king has answered and said, “O Belteshazzar, do not let the dream and its interpretation trouble you.” Belteshazzar has answered and said, “My lord, the dream—to those hating you, and its interpretation—to your enemies!
Tad Daniēls, kam Beltsacars vārdā, iztrūcinājās vienu stundu, un viņa domas viņu izbiedēja. Tad ķēniņš iesāka un sacīja: Beltsacar, lai tas sapnis un viņa izstāstīšana tevi neizbiedē. Beltsacars atbildēja un sacīja: mans kungs, šis sapnis lai notiek taviem ienaidniekiem un viņa izstāstīšana taviem pretiniekiem!
20 The tree that you have seen, that has become great and strong, and its height reaches to the heavens, and its vision to all the land,
Tas koks, ko tu esi redzējis tik lielu un resnu, un kura augstums sniedzās līdz debesīm, un kas bija redzams pa visu pasauli,
21 and its leaves [are] beautiful, and its budding great, and food for all [is] in it, under it the beast of the field dwells, and on its boughs the birds of the heavens sit.
Un kura zari skaisti, un kam bija daudz augļu, un kur barība bija priekš visiem, apakš tā lauka zvēri dzīvoja, un kura zaros putni apakš debess ligzdas taisīja, -
22 It [is] you, O king, for you have become great and mighty, and your greatness has become great, and has reached to the heavens, and your dominion to the end of the earth;
Tas tu esi, ķēniņ, kas palicis liels un stiprs, jo tava augstība ir tā augusi, ka tā sniedzās līdz debesīm, un tava valstība iet līdz pasaules galam.
23 and that which the king has seen—a sifter, even a holy one, coming down from the heavens, and he has said, Cut down the tree, and destroy it; but the stump of its roots leave in the earth, even with a band of iron and bronze, in the tender grass of the field, and with the dew of the heavens it is wet, and with the beast of the field [is] his portion, until seven times pass over him.
Ka nu ķēniņš vienu sargu, vienu svētu, redzējis no debesīm nākam un sakām: nocērtiet to koku un samaitājiet viņu, bet atstājiet to celmu ar saknēm zemē, bet vara un dzelzs pinekļos laukā zālē, ka viņš no debess rasas top slacināts, un viņa daļa lai ir ar lopiem uz lauka, tiekams septiņi laiki pār viņu paiet; -
24 This [is] the interpretation, O king, and it [is] the decree of the Most High that has come against my lord the king:
Šī ir tā izstāstīšana, kungs ķēniņ, un šis ir tā Visuaugstākā padoms, kas nāks pār manu kungu, ķēniņu:
25 and they are driving you away from men, and your dwelling is with the beast of the field, and they cause you to eat the herb as oxen, and they are wetting you by the dew of the heavens, and pass over you seven times, until you know that the Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and to whom He wills He gives it.
Tu tapsi izstumts no cilvēkiem un dzīvosi pie lopiem laukā, un tev dos ēst zāli kā vēršiem, un debess rasa tevi slacinās, un septiņi laiki paies pār tevi, tiekams tu atzīsti, ka tam Visuaugstākam vara ir pār cilvēku valstīm, tās dot, kam Viņš grib.
26 And that which they said—to leave the stump of the roots of the tree; your kingdom abides for you, after that you know that the heavens are ruling.
Bet kā ir sacīts, lai to celmu ar tā koka saknēm atstāj zemē: tava valsts tev pastāvēs, kad būsi atzinis, ka tas debesu Dievs valda.
27 Therefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable to you, and your sins by righteousness break off, and your perversity by pitying the poor, behold, it is a lengthening of your ease.”
Tādēļ, kungs ķēniņ, lai tev mans padoms patīk, un atsvabinājies no saviem grēkiem caur taisnību un no saviem noziegumiem caur žēlastību pret nabagiem, redzi, vai varbūt tava labklāšanās nepastavēs vēl ilgāki. -
28 All—has come on Nebuchadnezzar the king.
Tas viss uzgāja ķēniņam Nebukadnecaram.
29 At the end of twelve months, on the palace of the kingdom of Babylon he has been walking;
Jo pēc divpadsmit mēnešiem, kad Viņš staigāja ķēniņa pilī Bābelē,
30 the king has answered and said, “Is this not that great Babylon that I have built, for the house of the kingdom, in the might of my strength, and for the glory of my honor?”
Tad viņš, tas ķēniņš, runāja un sacīja: vai šī nav tā lielā Bābele, ko es esmu uztaisījis ķēniņam par mājokli caur savas varas stiprumu un par savas augstības godību?
31 While the word is [in] the king’s mouth a voice from the heavens has fallen: “They are saying to you: O Nebuchadnezzar the king, the kingdom has passed from you,
Šis vārds vēl bija ķēniņa mutē, tad balss no debesīm krita: tev, ķēniņ Nebukadnecar, top sacīts: tava valdība no tevis ir atņemta,
32 and from men they are driving you away, and your dwelling [is] with the beast of the field, they cause you to eat the herb as oxen, and pass over you seven times, until you know that the Most High is ruler in the kingdom of men, and to whom He wills He gives it.”
Un tu no cilvēkiem tapsi izstumts un tava dzīve būs pie lopiem laukā, tev dos zāli ēst kā vēršiem, un tā paies septiņi laiki, tiekams tu atzīsti, ka tam Visuaugstākam vara ir pār cilvēku valstīm, un viņš tās dod kam gribēdams.
33 In that hour the thing has been fulfilled on Nebuchadnezzar, and from men he is driven, and he eats the herb as oxen, and his body is wet by the dew of the heavens, until his hair has become great as eagles, and his nails as birds.
Tai pašā stundā šis vārds notika par Nebukadnecaru, un viņš no cilvēkiem tapa izstumts un ēda zāli kā vērši, un viņa miesas no debess rasas tapa slacinātas, tiekams viņa mati auga kā ērgļu spalvas un viņa nagi kā putnu nagi.
34 “And at the end of the days I, Nebuchadnezzar, have lifted up my eyes to the heavens, and my understanding returns to me, and I have blessed the Most High, and the Perpetual Living One I have praised and honored, whose dominion [is] a continuous dominion, and His kingdom with generation and generation;
Un pēc šā laika es, Nebukadnecars, pacēlu savas acis pret debesīm, jo mana saprašana man nāca atpakaļ, un es teicu to Visuaugstāko un slavēju un pagodināju to, kas dzīvo mūžīgi, tāpēc ka Viņa valdība ir mūžīga valdība, un Viņa valstība paliek līdz radu radiem.
35 and all who are dwelling on the earth are reckoned as nothing, and according to His will He is doing among the forces of the heavens and those dwelling on the earth, and there is none that claps with his hand and says to Him, What have You done?
Un visi zemes iedzīvotāji ir tā kā nekas, un Viņš dara pēc sava prāta ar debesu spēku un ar zemes iedzīvotājiem, un neviena nav, kas Viņa roku varētu aizturēt, vai uz Viņu sacīt: ko Tu dari?
36 At that time my understanding returns to me, and for the glory of my kingdom, my honor and my brightness return to me, and to me my counselors and my great men seek, and over my kingdom I have been made right, and abundant greatness has been added to me.
Tanī laikā mans prāts man nāca atpakaļ ir mana valsts godība, mana augstība un mans spožums man nāca atpakaļ un mani runas kungi un varenie mani meklēja un es atkal tapu iecelts savā valstībā, un dabūju vēl lielāku godību.
37 Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, am praising and exalting and honoring the King of the heavens, for all His works [are] truth, and His paths judgment, and those walking in pride He is able to humble.”
Nu es, Nebukadnecars, slavēju un paaugstināju un pagodināju to debesu Ķēniņu, jo visi Viņa darbi ir patiesība un Viņa ceļi taisnība, Viņš ir varens, tos pazemot, kas lepnībā staigā.
