< Jeremiah 3 >
1 "They say, 'If a man puts away his wife, and she goes from him, and become another man's, will he return to her again?' Wouldn't that land be greatly polluted? But you have played the prostitute with many lovers; yet return again to me," says the LORD.
Un Viņš saka: kad vīrs atstumj savu sievu, un tā aiziet no viņa un ņem citu vīru, vai tas viņu atkal drīkst pieņemt? Vai tāda zeme netaptu ļoti sagānīta? Bet tu ar daudz drauģeļiem esi maucību dzinusi un griezies atkal pie Manis, saka Tas Kungs.
2 "Lift up your eyes to the bare heights, and see. Where have you not been lain with? You have sat for them by the ways, as an Arabian in the wilderness. You have polluted the land with your prostitution and with your wickedness.
Pacel savas acis uz tiem elku kalniem un skaties: kur tu neesi tapusi apsmieta! Tu viņu dēļ esi ceļmalā sēdējusi kā Arābs tuksnesī; tā tu zemi esi sagānījusi ar savu maucību un ar savu blēdību.
3 Therefore the showers have been withheld, and there has been no latter rain; yet you have a prostitute's forehead, you refused to be ashamed.
Tādēļ agrais lietus top aizturēts, un vēlais lietus nenāk. Bet tev ir maukas piere, tu negribi kaunēties.
4 Will you not from this time cry to me, 'My Father, you are the guide of my youth?'
Un taču no šī laika tu Mani piesauci: mans Tēvs! Tu esi manas jaunības draugs!
5 "'Will he retain his anger forever? Will he keep it to the end?' Look, you have spoken and have done evil things, and have had your way."
Vai Viņš vienmēr dusmosies, vai Viņš bardzību turēs mūžīgi? Redzi, tā tu runā un dari ļaunu cik spēdama.
6 Moreover, the LORD said to me in the days of Josiah the king, "Have you seen that which backsliding Israel has done? She has gone up on every high mountain and under every green tree, and there has played the prostitute.
Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz mani ķēniņa Josijas dienās: Vai esi redzējis, ko Israēla cilts atkāpdamās darījusi? Viņa gāja uz ikkatru elka kalnu un apakš visiem zaļiem kokiem un tur maukoja.
7 I said after she had done all these things, 'She will return to me;' but she did not return; and her treacherous sister Judah saw it.
Un Es sacīju, kad tā visu to bija darījusi, atgriezies pie Manis; bet tā neatgriezās; un to redzēja viņas māsa, tā neuzticīgā Jūda cilts.
8 She saw that for all the causes for which faithless Israel had committed adultery, I had put her away and given her a bill of divorce, yet treacherous Judah, her sister, did not fear; but she also went and played the prostitute.
Un Es redzēju, lai gan Es tādēļ, ka tā pārkāpēja Israēla cilts laulību bija pārlauzusi, viņu biju atstājis un tai devis šķiršanās grāmatu, ka tomēr viņas māsa, neuzticīgā Jūda cilts, nebijās, bet nogāja un dzina pati arīdzan maucību.
9 And it came to pass, through her casual prostitution, that the land was polluted, and she committed adultery with stone and wood.
Un ar savas maucības slavu tā ir sagānījusi zemi, jo tā lauza laulību ar akmeņiem un kokiem.
10 Yet for all this her treacherous sister, Judah, has not returned to me with her whole heart, but only in pretense," says the LORD.
Un pie visa tā arī viņas māsa, neuzticīgā Jūda cilts, pie Manis nav atgriezusies no visas savas sirds, bet ar viltu, saka Tas Kungs.
11 The LORD said to me, "Backsliding Israel has shown herself more righteous than treacherous Judah.
Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz mani: Israēla cilts, tā atkāpēja, izturas taisnāki, nekā neuzticīgā Jūda cilts.
12 Go, and proclaim these words toward the north, and say, 'Return, you backsliding Israel,' says the LORD; 'I will not look in anger on you; for I am merciful,' says the LORD. 'I will not keep anger forever.
Ej un sauc šos vārdus pret ziemeļa pusi un saki: atgriezies, Israēla cilts, tu atkāpēja, saka Tas Kungs, tad Es Savu dusmību negriezīšu uz tevi. Jo Es esmu žēlīgs, saka Tas Kungs, Es negribu mūžīgi dusmoties.
13 Only acknowledge your iniquity, that you have transgressed against the LORD your God, and have scattered your ways to the strangers under every green tree, and you have not obeyed my voice,'" says the LORD.
Atzīsti tikai savu noziegumu, ka tu esi apgrēkojusies pret To Kungu, savu Dievu, un šurp turp esi skraidījusi pie svešiem, apakš ikkatra zaļa koka, bet Manai balsij jūs neesat paklausījuši, saka Tas Kungs.
14 "Return, backsliding children," says the LORD; "for I am a husband to you. I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion.
Atgriežaties, atkāpēji bērni, saka Tas Kungs, - jo Es jūs esmu precējis un jūs uzņemšu, vienu no pilsētas un divas no cilts, un Es jūs vedīšu uz Ciānu.
15 I will give you shepherds according to my heart, who shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.
Un Es jums došu ganus pēc Mana prāta, un tie jūs ganīs ar ziņu un prātu.
16 It shall come to pass, when you are multiplied and increased in the land, in those days," says the LORD, "they shall say no more, 'The ark of the covenant of the LORD.' neither shall it come to mind; neither shall they remember it; neither shall they miss it; neither shall it be made any more.
Un notiks, kad jūs vairosities un būsiet auglīgi tai zemē tanīs dienās, saka Tas Kungs, tad vairs nesacīs: „Tā Kunga derības šķirsts“un tas arī vairs prātā nenāks un to arī vairs nepieminēs nedz meklēs nedz to atkal uztaisīs.
17 At that time they shall call Jerusalem 'The throne of the LORD;' and all the nations shall be gathered to it, to the name of the LORD, to Jerusalem. Neither shall they walk any more after the stubbornness of their evil heart.
Tanī laikā Jeruzāleme taps nosaukta: „Tā Kunga goda krēsls“, un pie viņas visi pagāni taps sapulcināti, tādēļ ka Tā Kunga vārds ir Jeruzālemē; un tie nestaigās vairs pēc savas niknās sirds domām.
18 In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north to the land that I gave for an inheritance to your fathers.
Tanīs dienās Jūda nams ies pie Israēla nama, un tie nāks kopā no ziemeļu zemes uz to zemi, ko es jūsu tēviem esmu devis par mantību.
19 "But I said, 'How I would put you among the children, and give you a pleasant land, the most beautiful inheritance of all the nations.' and I said, 'You shall call me "My Father," and shall not turn away from following me.'
Es gan sacīju: kā Es tevi stādīšu starp tiem bērniem un tev došu jauku zemi, visglītāko mantību starp tautu glītumiem! Un sacīju: „Mans Tēvs!“jūs Mani sauksiet un no Manis neatkāpsities.
20 "Surely as a wife treacherously departs from her husband, so you have dealt treacherously with me, house of Israel," says the LORD.
Patiesi, tā kā sieva savam draugam ir neuzticīga, tā jūs esat bijuši neuzticīgi pret Mani, jūs no Israēla nama, saka Tas Kungs.
21 A voice is heard on the bare heights, the weeping and the petitions of the children of Israel; because they have perverted their way, they have forgotten the LORD their God.
Balss taps dzirdēta uz kalniem, Israēla bērnu raudāšana un žēlošanās, ka tie pārgrozījuši savu ceļu un aizmirsuši To Kungu, savu Dievu.
22 "Return, you backsliding children, I will heal your backsliding." "Look, we have come to you; for you are the LORD our God.
Atgriežaties, atkāpēji bērni, Es jūsu atkāpšanos dziedināšu. Redzi, mēs nākam pie Tevis, jo Tu, Kungs, esi mūsu Dievs.
23 Truly the hills are a delusion, the tumult on the mountains. Truly the salvation of Israel is in the LORD our God.
Patiesi, tas ir viltus ar tiem pakalniem un ar visiem tiem kalniem; patiesi, pie Tā Kunga, mūsu Dieva, ir Israēla pestīšana.
24 But the shameful thing has devoured the labor of our fathers from our youth, their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters.
Jo tas kauna darbs ir apēdis mūsu tēvu pūliņu no mūsu jaunības, viņu avis un viņu vēršus, viņu dēlus un viņu meitas.
25 Let us lie down in our shame, and let our confusion cover us; for we have sinned against the LORD our God, we and our fathers, from our youth even to this day. We have not obeyed the voice of the LORD our God."
Mēs guļam savā kaunā, un mūsu negods mūs apklāj. Jo mēs esam grēkojuši pret To Kungu, savu Dievu, mēs un mūsu tēvi no savas jaunības līdz šai dienai, un neesam klausījuši uz Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, balsi.
