< Isaiah 7 >

1 Ahaz was the son of Jotham and grandson of Uzziah. During the time that Ahaz was the king of Judah, King Rezin of Syria and King Pekah of Israel marched [with their armies] to attack Jerusalem. But they could not conquer it.
Un notikās Ahaza, Jūda ķēniņa, dienās, - tas bija Uzijas dēla Jotama dēls, - ka Recins, Sīrijas ķēniņš, un Pekas, Remalijas dēls, Israēla ķēniņš, uz Jeruzālemi cēlās, pret viņu karot, bet karodami pret viņu tie nekā neiespēja.
2 [But before they attacked], everyone in the palace heard a report that the armies of Syria and Israel were [now] (allies/joined [to attack Jerusalem)]. So Ahaz and the people over whom he ruled were extremely afraid; they were shaking from fear like trees shake in a windstorm.
Un Dāvida namam teica un sacīja: Sīrieši apmetušies pret Efraīmu. Tad viņa sirds un viņa ļaužu sirds drebēja, tā kā meža koki dreb no vēja.
3 Then Yahweh said to me, “Take your son Shear-Jashub, and go to talk with [King] Ahaz. He is at the end of the (aqueduct/water channel) that brings water into the upper reservoir, near the road to the place where women wash clothes.
Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Jesaju: izej jel Ahazam pretī, tu un tavs dēls ŠearJašubs, augšēja dīķa grāvja galā, ceļmalā, pie vadmalnieku tīruma,
4 Tell Ahaz to stop worrying [DOU]. Tell him that he does not need to be afraid of those two kings, Rezin and Pekah. They are very angry [with Judah], but they are [unable to harm his country any more than] completely burned-out coals [can harm him].
Un saki uz viņu: sargies un esi klusu, nebīsties, un lai tava sirds nebaiļojās no šiem diviem kūpošiem prauliem, no Recina un Sīriešu un Remalijas dēla karstām dusmām.
5 Yes, they are planning to attack this land and saying,
Tādēļ ka Sīrieši pret tevi ļaunu sadomājuši ar Efraīmu un Remalijas dēlu sacīdami:
6 ‘We will attack Judah and conquer it. Then we will appoint Tabeel’s son to be the king of Judah.’
Celsimies pret Jūdu un izbiedēsim to un uzņemsim to un celsim tur Tabeala dēlu par ķēniņu; -
7 But this is what Yahweh, the Lord, says: ‘It will not happen; they will not [conquer Jerusalem]!
Tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: tas nenotiks un nebūs.
8 The capital of Syria is Damascus, but Damascus is ruled [only] by its [unimportant/insignificant] king king Rezin. And as for Israel, within 65 years it will be conquered and completely destroyed.
Bet Damaskus būs Sīrijas galva, un Recins Damaskus galva, un vēl būs sešdesmit pieci gadi, tad Efraīms taps satriekts, ka vairs nebūs tauta.
9 Israel’s capital is Samaria, and Samaria is ruled only by its [insignificant/unimportant] king king Pekah. [So you do not need to be afraid of those two countries]! [But you must trust me, because] if you do not trust me fully, you will be defeated.’”
Un Samarija būs Efraīma galva, un Remalijas dēls Samarijas galva. Ja neticēsiet, tad nepastāvēsiet.
10 [Later], Yahweh gave [me another message to tell to] King Ahaz.
Un Tas Kungs runāja vēl uz Ahazu un sacīja:
11 [He said to tell him], “Request me, Yahweh your God, to do something that will enable you to be sure [that I will help/protect you]. What you request can be [from a place that is] as high as the sky or as low as the place where the dead people are.” (Sheol h7585)
Prasies kādu zīmi no Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, prasi to, vai dziļi dziļumā vai augsti augstumā! (Sheol h7585)
12 But [when I told that to the king, he refused]. He said, “[No], I will not request Yahweh to do something to prove [that he will help/protect us]!”
Tad Ahazs sacīja: es neprasīšu, es arī To Kungu nekārdināšu.
13 Then I said [to him], “You people who are descendants of King David, listen! You are causing me to be tired of being patient. Are you also going to cause my God to stop being patient with you [RHQ]?
Tad viņš sacīja: klausiet jel, jūs no Dāvida nama, vai tas jums vēl maz, kaitināt cilvēkus, ka nu arī kaitinājiet manu Dievu?
14 Yahweh himself will do something for you [to prove that he will help/protect you]. Listen to this: A young woman will become pregnant and give birth to a son. She will name him Immanuel, [which means ‘God is with us’].
Tādēļ Tas Kungs pats jums dos zīmi: redzi, jumprava būs grūta un dzemdēs dēlu un nosauks viņa vārdu Immanuel (Dievs ar mums).
15 And by the time that child is old enough to eat curds/yogurt and honey, he will be able to reject what is evil and choose what is good.
Sviestu un medu viņš ēdīs, kad viņš zin ļaunu atmest un labu uzņemt.
16 And before that child is old enough to do that, the lands of the two kings that you(sg) are very (afraid of/worried about) will be deserted.
Jo pirms tas puisītis zin ļaunu atmest un labu uzņemt, zeme būs izpostīta, no kuras diviem ķēniņiem tev bailes.
17 [But then] Yahweh will cause you and your family and your entire nation to experience [terrible disasters]. Those disasters will be worse than any disasters that have occurred since the country of Israel separated from Judah. Yahweh will cause [the army of] the king of Assyria to attack you!”
Un Tas Kungs atvedīs pār tevi un pār taviem ļaudīm un pār tavu tēva namu dienas, kādas nav nākušas no tā brīža, kamēr Efraīms no Jūda ir atkāpies, proti Asīrijas ķēniņu.
18 At that time, [it will be as though] Yahweh will whistle to summon the army from the south of Egypt as well as the army of Assyria. They will [come and surround your country like] [MET] flies and bees.
Jo tai dienā Tas Kungs pasvilps tām mušām, kas ir Ēģiptes upju galā, un to biti, kas Asīrijas zemē.
19 They will all come and settle/live [everywhere]—in the narrow valleys and caves in the rock cliffs, on land where there are thornbushes as well as on the fertile land.
Un tie nāks un apmetīsies visi dziļās ielejās un kalnu gravās un visos ērkšķu krūmos un visās ganībās.
20 At that time Yahweh will hire the king of Assyria to come [with his army] from east of the [Euphrates] River. [They will get rid of everything in your land—the crops and the people. They will destroy everything thoroughly]; it will be like [MET] a barber shaving not only a man’s hair but his beard and the hair on his legs.
Tai dienā Tas Kungs ar derētu dzenamu nazi, kas viņpus upes, caur Asīrijas ķēniņu, nodzīs galvu un kāju matus, ir visu bārdu Viņš nodzīs.
21 When that happens, a farmer will be able to have only one cow and two goats/sheep.
Un tai dienā cilvēks turēs kādu gotiņu un kādas divas aitiņas.
22 [However], those animals will give plenty of milk, with the result that the farmer will have curds/yogurt to eat. And [because there will not be many people left] in the land, all the people who remain there will have plenty of milk and honey.
Un tie tik daudz piena dos, ka tas sviestu ēdīs, jo ikkatrs, kas tai zemē atliks, tas ēdīs sviestu un medu.
23 Now there are many areas where there are vineyards that are worth 1,000 pieces of silver, but at that time there will be only briers and thorns [DOU] in those fields.
Un tai dienā notiks, ka ikkatrā vietā, kur bijuši tūkstoš vīna koki, kas maksāja tūkstoš sudraba gabalus, tur būs ērkšķi un krūmi,
24 There will be only briers and thorns in the entire land, [and wild animals], with the result that men will take their bows and arrows and go there [to hunt and kill animals].
Ka ar bultām un stopiem tur būs jāiet, jo visa tā zeme būs ērkšķi un krūmi.
25 No one will go to where there previously were gardens on fertile hillsides, because briers and thorns will cover those hillsides. They will be areas where [only a few] cattle and sheep and goats wander around [searching for something to eat].
Un uz visiem tiem kalniem, ko citkārt apkapāja ar kapļiem, tur tu neiesi, bīdamies no ērkšķiem un krūmiem, bet lieli lopi tur staigās, un sīki lopi tos mīdīs.
