Zephaniah 1
1 The Lord’s message, which came to Zephaniah, son of Cushi, son of Gedaliah, son of Amariah, son of Hezekiah, in the time of Josiah of Judah who was son of Amon.
Tā Kunga vārds, kas notika Josijas, Amona dēla, Jūda ķēniņa, dienās uz Cefaniju, Kuzus dēlu; tas bija Ģedalijas, tas Amarijas, tas Hizkijas dēls.
2 I will utterly destroy everything from off the face of the earth, says the Lord.
Rautin Es aizraušu visu no zemes virsas, saka Tas Kungs.
3 I will sweep away human and animal, the birds of the sky and the fish of the sea. I will cause the wicked to stumble, and I will cut off humanity from the face of the earth, says the Lord.
Es aizraušu cilvēkus un lopus, Es aizraušu putnus apakš debess un zivis jūrā un apgrēcības līdz ar bezdievīgiem, un Es izdeldēšu cilvēkus no zemes virsas, saka Tas Kungs.
4 I will stretch out my hand over Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and I will cut off from this place the last remnant of Baal and the name of the heathen priests,
Un Es izstiepšu savu roku pret Jūdu un pret visiem Jeruzālemes iedzīvotājiem, un izdeldēšu no šās vietas, kas atlicies no Baāla, un elka kalpu vārdu līdz ar tiem priesteriem,
5 and those who worship on the housetops to the stars in the sky, and those worshippers of the Lord who also pay homage to Milcom,
Līdz ar tiem, kas pielūdz debess spēku uz jumtiem, un kas pielūdz un zvērē pie Tā Kunga un arī zvērē pie sava ķēniņa,
6 and those who turn back from following the Lord, And those who do not seek the Lord nor strive to find him.
Un kas atkāpjas no Tā Kunga, un kas nemeklē To Kungu un pēc viņa nevaicā.
7 Be silent before the Lord God, for near is the day of the Lord, for the Lord has prepared a sacrifice, he has sanctified his guests.
Ciet klusu priekš Tā Kunga Dieva, jo Tā Kunga diena ir tuvu, jo Tas Kungs ir sataisījis upuri, viņš ir svētījis savus viesus.
8 On the day of the Lord’s sacrifice: I will punish the officers and the royal princes, and all those who clothe themselves in foreign apparel.
Un Tā Kunga upura dienā Es piemeklēšu virsniekus un ķēniņu bērnus un visus, kas ģērbjās ārzemes drēbēs.
9 On that day: I will punish all who leap over the threshold, who fill the house of their lord with violence and deceit.
Un tai dienā Es piemeklēšu visus, kas lec pār slieksni un kas sava kunga namu pilda ar laupījumu un viltu.
10 Listen on that day, says the Lord: A cry will be heard from the Fish Gate, and a wailing from the New Quarter, and a great din from the hills.
Un tai dienā, saka Tas Kungs, celsies brēkšanas balss no Zivju vārtiem un kaukšana no otra gala un lielas vaimanas no pakalniem.
11 Those who live in the Mortar wail, for all the traders are silenced, the money counters wiped out.
Kauciet, ielejas iedzīvotāji; jo visi tirgotāji izdeldēti, visi naudas krājēji nomaitāti.
12 I will search Jerusalem with a lamp, I will punish those who are at ease, who sit comfortably with their wine, who say to themselves, “the Lord brings neither prosperity nor calamity.”
Un tanī laikā Es Jeruzālemi izmeklēšu ar uguni un piemeklēšu tos vīrus, kas sēž uz savām mielēm, kas saka savās sirdīs: Tas Kungs nedara ne laba, ne ļauna.
13 Their wealth will become a prey and their houses a desolation. Though they build houses, they will not inhabit them; though they plant vineyards, they will not drink wine from them.
Tāpēc viņu manta paliks par laupījumu un viņu nami par postažām. Tie gan uztaisa namus, bet tur nedzīvos, tie dēsta vīna dārzus, bet to vīnu nedzers.
14 Near is the day of the Lord! Near and rapidly approaching! Near is the bitter day of the Lord, and the scream of the warrior.
Tā Kunga lielā diena ir tuvu un ļoti steidzās. Klau, Tā Kunga diena! Briesmīgi brēc paši varenie.
15 That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of destruction and desolation, a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and thick darkness,
Šī diena būs bardzības diena, bēdu un bailības diena, vētras un posta diena, melna un tumša diena, apmākusies un miglaina diena,
16 a day of the trumpet and battle-cry, against the fortified cities and against the high battlements.
Bazūnes un kara trokšņa diena pret visām stiprām pilsētām un augstām pilīm.
17 And I will bring distress upon the people and they will walk as the blind, because they have sinned against the Lord, and their blood will be poured out as dust and their flesh as dung.
Un Es izbiedēšu cilvēkus, ka tie iet kā akli; jo tie grēkojuši pret To Kungu, un viņu asinis taps izgāztas kā pīšļi, un viņu miesas kā mēsli.
18 Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to save them. For in the day of the wrath of the Lord and in the fire of his fury the whole earth will be consumed. For he will make a speedy end of all the inhabitants of the earth.
Ne viņu sudrabs, ne viņu zelts tos neizglābs Tā Kunga bardzības dienā, bet Viņa karstuma ugunī visa zeme taps aprīta; jo ātru galu Viņš darīs visiem zemes iedzīvotājiem.
