Malachi 3
1 “Behold, I am sending My messenger, And he has prepared a way before Me, And suddenly the Lord whom you are seeking comes into His temple, Even the Messenger of the Covenant, Whom you are desiring, Behold, He is coming,” said YHWH of Hosts.
Redzi, Es sūtu Savu eņģeli, lai tas Manā priekšā sataisa ceļu. Un drīz nāks uz Savu namu Tas Kungs, ko jūs meklējat un tas derības eņģelis, pie kā jums labs prāts. Redzi, Viņš nāk, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
2 “And who is bearing the day of His coming? And who is standing in His appearing? For He [is] as fire of a refiner, And as soap of a fuller.
Bet kas panesīs Viņa atnākšanas dienu, un kas pastāvēs, kad Viņš rādīsies? Jo Viņš būs kā kausētāja uguns un kā mazgātāju sārms.
3 And He has sat, a refiner and purifier of silver, And He has purified the sons of Levi, And has refined them as gold and as silver, And they have been bringing a present near to YHWH in righteousness.
Un Viņš sēdēs, sudrabu kausēt un šķīstīt, un šķīstīs Levja bērnus un tos iztīrīs kā zeltu un sudrabu; tad tie Tam Kungam upuri nesīs taisnībā.
4 And the present of Judah and Jerusalem has been sweet to YHWH, As in days of old, and as in former years.
Tad Jūda un Jeruzālemes upuris Tam Kungam būs salds, kā vecos laikos un senajos gados.
5 And I have drawn near to you for judgment, And I have been a witness, Making haste against sorcerers, and against adulterers, And against swearers to a falsehood, And against oppressors of the hire of a hired worker, Of a widow, and of a fatherless one, And those turning aside a sojourner, And who do not fear Me,” said YHWH of Hosts.
Es pie jums nākšu uz tiesu un būšu ātrs liecinieks pret burvjiem un laulības parkāpējiem un pret tiem, kas nepatiesi zvēr, un pret tiem, kas nospiež algādža algu, atraitni un bāriņu, un kas spaida svešinieku un Mani nebīstas, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
6 “For I, YHWH, have not changed, And you, the sons of Jacob, You have not been consumed.
Jo Es Tas Kungs citāds nepalieku, tāpēc jums, Jēkaba bērni, gals vēl nav darīts.
7 Even from the days of your fathers You have turned aside from My statutes, And you have not taken heed. Return to Me, and I return to you,” said YHWH of Hosts. “And you have said, In what do we turn back?
No savu tēvu laika jūs esiet atkāpušies no Maniem likumiem un tos neesat turējuši. Atgriežaties atkal pie Manis, tad Es atgriezīšos pie jums, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot. Bet jūs sakāt: kā lai atgriežamies?
8 Does man deceive God? But you are deceiving Me, And you have said, In what have we deceived You? The tithe and the raised-offering!
Vai gan cilvēks Dievu var apkrāpt, kā jūs Mani apkrāpjat? Un jūs sakāt: kā mēs Tevi apkrāpjam? Ar desmito(tiesu) un ar cilājamo upuri.
9 You are cursed with a curse! And you are deceiving Me—this nation—all of it.
Tāpēc jūs esat ar lāstu nolādēti, ka jūs Mani apkrāpjat, visi ļaudis kopā.
10 Bring in all the tithe to the treasure-house, And there is food in My house; When you have tried Me, now, with this,” said YHWH of Hosts, “Do I not open the windows of the heavens to you? Indeed, I have emptied on you a blessing until there is no space.
Nesiet pilnu desmito(tiesu) mantu namā, ka barība ir Manā namā, un pārbaudiet jel Mani tā, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: vai Es jums neatvēršu debess logus un jums nedošu svētības pārpārēm?
11 And I have pushed against the consumer for you, And He does not destroy the fruit of your ground, Nor does the vine in the field miscarry to you,” said YHWH of Hosts.
Un jūsu dēļ Es rāšu ēdēju, lai tas jums nemaitā zemes augļus, un lai vīna koks tīrumā jums nav neauglīgs, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
12 “And all the nations have declared you blessed, For you are a delightful land,” said YHWH of Hosts.
Un visas tautas jūs teiks laimīgus, jo jūs būsiet jauka zeme, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot. -
13 “Your words have been hard against Me,” said YHWH, “And you have said, What have we spoken against You?
Jūsu vārdi ir cieti pret Mani, saka Tas Kungs. Un jūs sakāt: ko mēs pret Tevi runājam?
14 You have said, A vain thing to serve God! And what gain when we kept His charge? And when we have gone in black, Because of YHWH of Hosts?
Jūs sakāt: tas ir velti, Dievam kalpot, jo kāds labums atlec, kad turam Viņa bausli, un ka bēdās staigājam priekš Tā Kunga Cebaot?
15 And now, we are declaring the proud blessed, Indeed, those doing wickedness have been built up, Indeed, they have tempted God, and escape.
Bet nu mēs teicam laimīgus tos pārgalvīgos, jo bezdievības darītāji pieaug, tie Dievu kārdina un taču izsprūk.
16 Then have those fearing YHWH spoken to one another, And YHWH attends and hears, And a scroll of memorial is written before Him Of those fearing YHWH, And of those esteeming His Name.
Tad tie, kas To Kungu bīstas, runāja cits ar citu, un Tas Kungs nomanīja un ieklausījās, un piemiņas grāmata ir rakstīta Viņa priekšā tiem, kas To Kungu bīstas, un tiem, kas Viņa vārdu piemin.
17 And they have been to Me,” said YHWH of Hosts, “In the day that I am appointing—a peculiar treasure, And I have had pity on them, As one has pity on his son who is serving him.
Un tai dienā, ko Es darīšu, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, tie Man būs par īpašumu, un Es tos žēlošu, kā vīrs savu dēlu žēlo, kas viņam kalpo.
18 And you have turned back and considered, Between the righteous and the wicked, Between the servant of God and him who is not His servant.”
Tad jūs atkal redzēsiet to starpību starp taisnu un bezdievīgu, starp to, kas Dievam kalpo, un to, kas Viņam nekalpo.
