< Ezekiel 17 >
1 The word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz mani sacīdams:
2 "Son of man, put forth a riddle, and speak a parable to the house of Israel;
Cilvēka bērns, liec Israēla namam mīklu priekšā un stāsti līdzību.
3 and say, 'Thus says Jehovah: "A great eagle with great wings and long feathers, full of feathers, which had various colors, came to Lebanon, and took the top of the cedar:
Un saki: tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: liels ērglis ar lieliem spārniem, ar stipriem locekļiem un kuplām raibām spalvām nāca uz Lībanu un paņēma ciedra koka galotni.
4 he cropped off the topmost of the young twigs of it, and carried it to a land of traffic; he set it in a city of merchants.
Viņš nolauza pašu virsgalu un to aiznesa uz vienu tirgoņu zemi un to iestādīja vienā tirgotāju pilsētā.
5 He took also of the seed of the land, and planted it in a fruitful soil; he placed it beside many waters; he set it as a willow tree.
Viņš paņēma arīdzan no tās zemes sēklas un lika to sējamā tīrumā, viņš to paņēma un stādīja kā vītolu pie liela ūdens.
6 It grew, and became a spreading vine of low stature, whose branches turned toward him, and its roots were under him: so it became a vine, and brought forth branches, and shot forth sprigs.
Un tā izplauka un palika par kuplu vīna koku ar zemu augumu, jo viņa stīgas locījās uz viņu, un viņa sakne bija apakš viņa; tā viņš tapa par vīna koku, kas izlaida stīgas un dabūja zarus.
7 '"There was also another great eagle with great wings and many feathers: and look, this vine bent its roots toward him, and shot forth its branches toward him, from the beds of its plantation, that he might water it.
Un vēl viens ērglis bija ar lieliem spārniem un kuplām spalvām, un redzi, tas vīna koks locīja savas saknes uz viņu un izstiepa savus zarus pret viņu, ka viņš šo slacinātu no sava stādījuma dobēm.
8 It was planted in a good soil by many waters, that it might bring forth branches, and that it might bear fruit, that it might be a goodly vine."'
Gan tas bija dēstīts labā zemē pie liela ūdens, ka tam bija stīgas izlaist un augļus nest un palikt par it labu vīna koku.
9 "Say, 'Thus says Jehovah: "Shall it prosper? Shall he not pull up its roots, and cut off its fruit, that it may wither; that all its fresh springing leaves may wither? And not by a strong arm or many people can it be raised from its roots.
Saki tad: tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: vai tam labi izdosies? Vai viņa saknes netaps izrautas un viņa augļi nogriezti, ka sakalst un visas viņa zaļās lapas savīst? Un tas nenotiks caur lielu elkoni nedz caur lielu ļaužu pulku, ka to izcels no viņa saknēm.
10 Yes, look, being planted, shall it prosper? Shall it not utterly wither, when the east wind touches it? It shall wither in the beds where it grew."'"
Redzi jel! Viņš gan ir dēstīts, bet vai tam labi izdosies? Vai tas, kad rīta vējš to aizskars, kaltin nenokaltīs? Uz tām dobēm, kur tas dēstīts, tas nokaltīs.
11 Moreover the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz mani sacīdams:
12 "Say now to the rebellious house, 'Do you not know what these things mean?' Tell them, 'Look, the king of Babylon came to Jerusalem, and took its king, and its princes, and brought them to him to Babylon:
Saki jel uz to atkāpēju sugu: vai jūs nezināt, kas tas ir? Saki: redzi, Bābeles ķēniņš ir nācis uz Jeruzālemi un paņēmis viņas ķēniņu līdz ar viņas lielkungiem un tos aizvedis pie sevis uz Bābeli.
13 and he took of the royal family, and made a covenant with him; he also brought him under an oath, and took away the mighty of the land;
Un viņš no ķēniņa dzimuma vienu ir ņēmis un ar to cēlis derību un tam licis zvērēt un atņēmis zemes varenos,
14 that the kingdom might be base, that it might not lift itself up, but that by keeping his covenant it might stand.
Lai tā valsts būtu zema un nepaaugstinātos, un lai tā derību turēdama pastāvētu.
15 But he rebelled against him in sending his ambassadors into Egypt, that they might give him horses and many people. Shall he prosper? Shall he escape who does such things? Shall he break the covenant, and yet escape?
Bet tas no viņa atkāpās un sūtīja savus vēstnešus uz Ēģipti, lai tam sūtītu zirgus un ļaužu pulku. Vai tam izdosies? Vai tas izglābsies, kas to dara? Vai derības lauzējs izglābsies?
16 "'As I live,' says Jehovah, 'surely in the place where the king dwells who made him king, whose oath he despised, and whose covenant he broke, even with him in the midst of Babylon he shall die.
Tik tiešām kā Es dzīvoju, saka Tas Kungs Dievs, tā ķēniņa zemē, kas viņu darījis par ķēniņu, kam zvērestu viņš nicinājis un kam derību viņš lauzis, pie tā viņš nomirs Bābelē.
17 Neither shall Pharaoh with his mighty army and great company help him in the war, when they cast up mounds and build forts, to cut off many persons.
Un Faraons karā viņam klāt nestāvēs ar lielu karaspēku un ar lielu pulku, kad uzmetīs valni un uztaisīs bulverķus, izdeldēt daudz dvēseles.
18 For he has despised the oath by breaking the covenant; and look, he had given his hand, and yet has done all these things; he shall not escape.'
Jo viņš nicinājis zvērestu un lauzis derību; redzi, jebšu viņš savu roku bija devis, tomēr viņš visu to ir darījis, tāpēc viņš neizglābsies.
19 "Therefore thus says Jehovah: 'As I live, surely my oath that he has despised, and my covenant that he has broken, I will even bring it on his own head.
Tādēļ tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: tik tiešām kā Es dzīvoju, Es Savu zvērestu, ko viņš nicinājis, un Savu derību, ko viņš lauzis, gribu mest uz viņa galvu.
20 I will spread my net on him, and he shall be taken in my snare, and I will bring him to Babylon, and will enter into judgment with him there for his trespass that he has trespassed against me.
Un Es Savu tīklu izpletīšu pār viņu, ka viņš Manos valgos taps gūstīts, un Es viņu likšu novest uz Bābeli un tur ar viņu tiesāšos par viņa atkāpšanos, ka viņš no Manis atkāpies.
21 All the choice men among all his troups will fall by the sword, and those who remain shall be scattered toward every wind: and you shall know that I, Jehovah, have spoken it.'
Un visi viņa bēgļi ar visiem viņa piederīgiem kritīs caur zobenu, un tie atlikušie taps izkaisīti visos vējos, un jūs samanīsiet, ka Es, Tas Kungs, to esmu runājis.
22 "Thus says Jehovah: 'I will also take of the lofty top of the cedar, and will set it; I will crop off from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one, and I will plant it on a high and lofty mountain:
Tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: Es ņemšu no tā augstā ciedra koka galotnes, un to stādīšu, no paša viņa virsgala es ņemšu zariņu, un to dēstīšu ļoti augstā kalnā,
23 in the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it; and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a goodly cedar: and under it shall dwell all birds of every wing; in the shade of its branches shall they dwell.
Israēla augstā kalnā Es to stādīšu, un viņš izlaidīs zarus un nesīs augļus un taps par krāšņu ciedra koku, tā ka apakš viņa dzīvos visādi putni no visādām spalvām; viņa zaru pavēnī tie dzīvos.
24 All the trees of the field shall know that I, Jehovah, have brought down the high tree, have exalted the low tree, have dried up the green tree, and have made the dry tree to flourish; I, Jehovah, have spoken and have done it.'"
Un visi koki laukā samanīs, ka Es, Tas Kungs, to augsto koku esmu pazemojis un to zemo koku paaugstinājis, to zaļo koku kaltējis un to sakaltušo koku darījis zaļojam. Es, Tas Kungs, to esmu runājis un to darīšu.
