Jeremiah 5
1 “Go to and fro in streets of Jerusalem, And see now and know, And seek in her broad places, If you find a man, If there is one doing judgment, Seeking steadfastness—Then I am propitious to her.
Ejat apkārt pa Jeruzālemes ielām un pieraugāt jel un ņemiet vērā un meklējiet pa viņas platām ielām, vai jūs varat kādu atrast, vai ir kāds, kas taisnību dara un patiesību meklē, - tad Es viņai piedošu.
2 And if they say, YHWH lives, Surely they swear to a falsehood.”
Un jebšu tie visi saka: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo, tomēr tie zvēr nepatiesi.
3 YHWH, Your eyes, are they not on steadfastness? You have struck them, and they have not grieved, You have consumed them, They have refused to receive instruction, They made their faces harder than a rock, They have refused to turn back.
Ak Kungs! Vai Tavas acis (neraugās) uz ticību? Tu tos siti, bet tie nejūt sāpes, Tu tos apbēdini, bet tie negrib pieņemt pārmācību; tie savus vaigus apcietinājuši vairāk nekā akmeni, tie negrib atgriezties.
4 And I said, “Surely these [are] poor, They have been foolish, For they have not known the way of YHWH, The judgment of their God.
Un es sacīju: tiešām, tie ir nabagi, tie ir neprātīgi, tādēļ ka tie nezin Tā Kunga ceļu, sava Dieva tiesu,
5 I go to the great, and I speak with them, For they have known the way of YHWH, The judgment of their God.” Surely they have broken the yoke together, They have drawn away the bands.
Es iešu pie tiem lieliem un runāšu ar tiem, jo tie zin Tā Kunga ceļu, sava Dieva tiesu. Bet tie visi kopā to jūgu salauzuši un tās saites saraustījuši.
6 Therefore a lion out of the forest has struck them, A wolf of the deserts spoils them, A leopard is watching over their cities, Everyone who is going out of them is torn, For their transgressions have been many, Their backslidings have been mighty.
Tādēļ tos sitīs lauva no meža, un vilks no tuksneša tos postīs, pardelis(leopards) glūn pret viņu pilsētām, visi, kas no turienes iziet, taps saplosīti. Jo viņu grēki ir vairojušies, viņu pārkāpumi augumā auguši.
7 “I am not propitious to you for this, Your sons have forsaken Me, And are satisfied by [those who are] not gods, I satisfy them, and they commit adultery, And at the house of a harlot They gather themselves together.
Kādēļ tad lai Es tevi žēloju? Tavi bērni Mani atstāj un zvērē pie tā, kas dievs nav. Kad Es nu tos esmu pieēdinājis, tad tie lauž laulību un iet pa pulkiem mauku namā.
8 Fed horses—they have been early risers, They each neigh to the wife of his neighbor.
Kā baroti ērzeļi tie ceļas agri, ikviens zviedz pēc sava tuvākā sievas.
9 Do I not lay a charge for these?” A declaration of YHWH, “And on a nation such as this, Does My soul not avenge itself?
Vai Man tos nebūs piemeklēt, saka Tas Kungs, jeb vai Manai dvēselei nav jāatriebjās pie tādiem ļaudīm, kā šie?
10 Go up on her walls, and destroy, And I do not make a completion, Turn her branches aside, For they [are] not YHWH’s,
Kāpjat uz viņas mūriem un samaitājiet tos, bet neizpostiet tos pavisam. Atņemiet viņas stīgas, jo tās nav no Tā Kunga.
11 For the house of Israel has dealt treacherously against Me, And the house of Judah,” A declaration of YHWH.
Jo Israēla nams un Jūda nams palikuši visai neuzticīgi pret Mani, saka Tas Kungs.
12 They have lied against YHWH, And they say, “[It is] not He, Nor does evil come in against us, Indeed, we do not see sword and famine.
Tie aizliedz To Kungu un saka: viņš nav tas, un mums ļaunums neuzies, mēs neredzēsim nedz zobenu nedz badu.
13 And the prophets become wind, And the word is not in them, Thus it is done to them.”
Arī pravieši aizies vējā, jo (Dieva) vārds nav pie viņiem; pašiem tiem tas tā notiks.
14 Therefore, thus said YHWH, God of Hosts: “Because of your speaking this word, Behold, I am making My words become fire in your mouth, And this people wood, And it has devoured them.
Tādēļ saka Tas Kungs, tas Dievs Cebaot: Tāpēc ka jūs šo vārdu sakāt, redzi, Es Savu vārdu tavā mutē darīšu par uguni un šos ļaudis par malku, un tas tos aprīs.
15 Behold, I am bringing against you a nation from afar, O house of Israel,” A declaration of YHWH, “It [is] a strong nation, It [is] an ancient nation, A nation whose tongue you do not know, Nor understand what it speaks.
Redzi, Es atvedīšu pār jums tautu no tālienes, Israēla nams, saka Tas Kungs. Tā ir stipra tauta, veca tauta, tauta, kam valodu tu nesaproti, un nesajēdzi, ko tā runā.
16 Its quiver [is] as an open tomb, All of them—mighty ones.
Viņas bultu maks ir kā atvērts kaps, tie visi ir varoņi.
17 And it has consumed your harvest and your bread, They consume your sons, and your daughters, It consumes your flock, and your herd, It consumes your vine and your fig tree, It makes your fortified cities poor, In which you are trusting—by the sword.
Un tā ēdīs tavu pļāvumu un tavu maizi, tā ēdīs tavus dēlus un tavas meitas, tā ēdīs tavas avis un tavus vēršus, tā ēdīs tavu vīna koku un tavu vīģes koku; tavas stiprās pilsētas, uz ko tu paļaujies, tā izpostīs ar zobenu.
18 And even in those days,” A declaration of YHWH, “I do not make you a completion.
Tomēr ir tanīs dienās Es jums pavisam negribu galu darīt, saka Tas Kungs.
19 And it has come to pass, when you say, Why has our God YHWH done all these [things] to us? That you have said to them, As you have forsaken Me, And serve the gods of a foreigner in your land, So you serve strangers in a land [that is] not yours.
Un kad jūs sacīsiet: kādēļ Tas Kungs, mūsu Dievs, mums visas šās lietas ir darījis? Tad tev uz viņiem būs sacīt: tā kā jūs Mani esat atstājuši un kalpojuši svešiem dieviem savā zemē, tāpat jūs kalposiet svešiem zemē, kas jums nepieder.
20 Declare this in the house of Jacob, And sound it in Judah, saying,
Sludinājiet to Jēkaba namā, liekat to dzirdēt iekš Jūda un sakāt:
21 Now hear this, O people, foolish and without heart, They have eyes, and they do not see, They have ears, and they do not hear.
Klausiet jel to, ģeķīgie un neprātīgie ļaudis, kam acis ir, un neredz, kam ausis ir, un nedzird.
22 Do you not fear Me?” A declaration of YHWH; “Are you not pained from My presence? Who has made sand the border of the sea, A perpetual limit, and it does not pass over it, They shake themselves, and they are not able, Indeed, its billows have sounded, and they do not pass over.
Vai jūs Mani negribat bīties? Saka Tas Kungs, vai Manā priekšā negribat drebēt? Es smiltis lieku jūrai par ežu, par mūžīgu robežu, ka par to nebūs iet pāri; jebšu viņas viļņi kust, tad tie tomēr nekā neiespēj, jebšu tie gan kauc, tad tie tomēr pār to neiet pāri.
23 And this people has an apostatizing and rebelling heart, They have turned aside, and they go on.
Bet šiem ļaudīm ir bezdievīga un stūrgalvīga sirds, tie atkāpjas un aiziet,
24 And they have not said in their heart, Now let us fear our God YHWH, who is giving rain, The autumn rain and the spring rain, in its season, He keeps the appointed weeks of harvest for us.
Un nesaka savā sirdī: lai jel bīstamies To Kungu, savu Dievu, kas mums dod lietu agri un vēlu - savā laikā, kas mums pasargā pļaujamā laika noliktās nedēļas.
25 Your iniquities have turned these away, And your sins have kept the good from you.
Jūsu noziegumi to aizkavē, un jūsu grēki to labumu jums aiztur.
26 For the wicked have been found among My people. He watches like one who sets snares, They have set up a trap—they capture men.
Jo starp Maniem ļaudīm atrodas bezdievīgi; tie glūn, kā mednieki mēdz, tie liek valgus un gūsta cilvēkus.
27 As a cage full of birds, So their houses are full of deceit, Therefore they have been great, and are rich.
Kā putnu sprosts ir pilns putnu, tā viņu nams ir pilns viltības, tādēļ tie ir palikuši lieli un bagāti.
28 They have been fat, they have shone, Indeed, they have surpassed the acts of the evil, They have not judged judgment, The judgment of the fatherless—and they prosper, And they have not judged the judgment of the needy.
Tie ir tauki, tie ir gludeni, no tiem plūst ļaunums, tie neiztiesā tiesu nedz bāriņa lietas, ka šiem būtu labi, un nabagiem tie tiesu neizdod.
29 Do I not inspect for these,” A declaration of YHWH, “On a nation such as this, Does My soul not avenge itself?
Vai Man tos nebūs piemeklēt? saka Tas Kungs. Vai Manai dvēselei nebūs atriebties pie tādiem ļaudīm, kā šie?
30 An astonishing and horrible thing has been in the land:
Briesmīgas un negantas lietas notiek šai zemē.
31 The prophets have prophesied falsely, And the priests bear rule by their means, And My people have loved [it] so, And what do they do at its latter end?”
Pravieši māca viltīgi, un priesteri valda pēc sava padoma, un Maniem ļaudīm tas tā patīk. Bet ko tad jūs pēcgalā darīsiet?
