< Isaiah 15 >
1 [I received] this message [from Yahweh] about the Moab [people-group]: In one night [two of your important cities], Ar and Kir, will be destroyed.
Spriedums par Moabu. Moaba Ara pa nakti postīta, izdeldēta! Tiešām, Moaba Ķire pa nakti postīta, izdeldēta.
2 The people of Dibon, [your capital city, ] will go to their temple to mourn/weep; they will go to [their shrines] on the hilltops to weep. They will wail because of [what happened to] Nebo and Medeba [towns in the south]; they will all shave the hair of their heads, and the men will cut off their beards [to show that they are grieving].
Uz Baītu un Dibonu, uz elku kalniem iet raudāt; uz Nebus un uz Medbas Moabs kauc. Visas viņu galvas ir nodzītas plikas un visiem bārda nogriezta.
3 In the streets people will wear rough sackcloth, and on their [flat] rooftops and in the [city] plazas everyone will wail, with tears streaming down their faces.
Savās ielās tie iet apjozušies ar maisiem, pa saviem jumtiem un ceļiem visi kauc un plūst asarās.
4 [The people of] Heshbon [city] and Elealeh [towns in the north of Moab] will cry out; people as far away as Jahaz [town in the south] will hear them wailing. Therefore the soldiers of Moab will tremble and cry out and they will be very afraid [IDM].
Hešbona un Eleale brēc, viņas balss top dzirdēta līdz Jācai. Tādēļ vaid paši Moaba apbruņotie, dvēsele viņam trīc.
5 I feel very sorry for [the people of] Moab; they will flee to Zoar and Eglath-Shelishiyah [towns in the far south]. They will cry as they walk up to Luhith [town]. All along the road to Horonaim [town] people will mourn because their country has been destroyed.
Mana sirds brēc par Moabu; viņa bēgļi bēg līdz Coārai, līdz EglatŠilišijai; jo uz Luķitu kāpj ar raudāšanu, un ceļā pret Horonaīm kliedz par izpostīšanu.
6 The water in Nimrim [Valley] will have dried up. The grass there will be withered; the green plants will [all] be gone, and there will be nothing left that is green.
Jo Nimrim ūdeņi izsīkuši; jo zāle nokaltusi, zaļums iznīcis, nekas vairs nezeļ.
7 The people will pick up their possessions and carry them across Willows Brook.
Tāpēc to krājumu, ko sakrājuši, un ko glabājuši, to tie ved pār kārklu upi.
8 Throughout the country of Moab, [people] will be crying; people as far away as Eglaim [in the south] and Beer-Elim [in the north] will hear them wailing.
Jo brēkšana iet pa Moaba robežām, viņa kaukšana līdz Eglaīm, viņa kaukšana līdz Elim akai.
9 The stream near Dimon will become red from the blood [of people who have been killed], but I will cause the people of Moab to experience even more [trouble]: Lions will attack those who [are trying to] escape from Moab and will [also] attack the people who remain in that country.
Jo Dimonas ūdeņi ir pilni asiņu. Jo vēl vairāk Es uzlikšu Dimonai, lauvu tiem, kas Moabā izglābušies un tai zemē atlikuši.
