Jeremiah 16
1 Yahweh gave me another message. [He said to me],
Un Tā Kunga vārds uz mani tā notika:
2 “Do not get married and have children in this land,
Tev nebūs sievu ņemt, tev arī nebūs šinī vietā dzemdināt ne dēlus ne meitas.
3 because this is what [I], Yahweh, say about the children who are born in this city, and about their mothers and fathers:
Jo tā saka Tas Kungs par tiem dēliem un par tām meitām, kas šai vietā piedzimuši, ir par viņu mātēm, kas tos dzemdē un par viņu tēviem, kas tos dzemdina šai zemē:
4 [Many of] them will die from terrible diseases. And no one will mourn for them. No one will even bury their corpses; the corpses will lie on the ground, [scattered] like manure. [Others] will die in wars or from hunger, and [then] their corpses will become food for vultures and wild animals.”
Tie nomirs ar nāvīgām sērgām, tie netaps apraudāti nedz aprakti, tie būs par mēsliem virs zemes; tie taps aprīti caur zobenu un caur badu, un viņu miesas būs par barību putniem apakš debess un zvēriem virs zemes.
5 This is [also] what Yahweh said to me: “Do not go to funerals to mourn or to show [those whose relatives have died] that you feel sorry for them, because I have stopped protecting them, and I have caused that things will not go well for them. I have stopped faithfully loving them and acting mercifully toward them.
Jo tā saka Tas Kungs: tev nebūs iet raudu namā, un neej gaust nedz par tiem žēloties. Jo tā saka Tas Kungs: No šiem ļaudīm Es esmu atņēmis Savu mieru, žēlastību un apžēlošanu,
6 [Very many people] will die in this land, [including] those who are important and those who are not important. And no one will mourn for them, or [even] bury [their corpses]. No one will cut himself or shave his head [to show that he is very sad].
Tā ka lieli un mazi šai zemē nomirs un netaps aprakti, tie arī netaps apraudāti un nevienam nebūs graizīties, nedz apcirpties viņu dēļ.
7 No one will bring food to comfort those who are mourning, not even if it is their father or their mother [who has died]. No one will give them a cup [of wine] to cheer them up.
Tiem arī nebūs lauzt sēru maizi, tos iepriecināt par mirušu, un tos nebūs dzirdināt ar iepriecināšanas biķeri par tēvu vai māti.
8 And do not go into the houses where people are feasting. Do not eat or drink anything with them.
Tāpat neej dzīru namā pie tiem sēdēt ēst un dzert.
9 [I want you to do this] because this is what [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, say: ‘While you are still alive and seeing it happen, I will cause there to be no more singing and laughing in this land. There will be no more joyful voices of bridegrooms and brides.’
Jo tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs: redzi, šinī vietā priekš jūsu acīm un jūsu dienās Es likšu mitēties prieka balsij un līksmības balsij, brūtgāna balsij un brūtes balsij.
10 When you tell these things to the people, they will ask, ‘Why has Yahweh declared that these terrible things will happen to us? What have we done [for which we deserve to be punished like this]? What sin have we committed against Yahweh our God?’
Un kad tu šiem ļaudīm visus šos vārdus teiksi un tie uz tevi saka: Kāpēc Tas Kungs pret mums runā visu šo lielo ļaunumu? Un kas ir mūsu noziegums, un kas ir mūsu grēks, ar ko esam apgrēkojušies pret To Kungu, savu Dievu?
11 Then this is what you must tell them [that I am replying to them]: ‘It is because your ancestors turned away from me, Yahweh. They worshiped other gods and served them. They abandoned me and did not obey my commands.
Tad tev uz tiem būs sacīt: tādēļ ka jūsu tēvi Mani atstājuši, saka Tas Kungs, un citiem dieviem dzinušies pakaļ un tiem kalpojuši un tos pielūguši, bet Mani atstājuši un nav turējuši Manu bauslību.
12 But you [who are living now] have done more wicked things than your ancestors did! Each of you stubbornly does the evil things that he desires and refuses to pay attention to what I say.
Un jūs esat niknāki darījuši nekā jūsu tēvi. Jo redzi, jūs staigājat ikviens pēc savas niknās sirds stūrgalvības un Mani neklausiet.
13 So, I will throw you out of this land, and I will send you to a land that you and your ancestors have never known about. There you will worship other gods day and night. And I will not act mercifully toward you.’
Un tā tad Es jūs izmetīšu no šīs zemes uz zemi, ko nepazināt, ne jūs ne jūsu tēvi, un tur jūs kalposiet citiem dieviem dienām naktīm, tādēļ ka Es jums neparādīšu žēlastību.
14 But there will be a time when people [who are solemnly promising to do something] will no longer say, ‘[I will do this], [just as surely] as Yahweh lives—the one who brought the Israeli people here from Egypt.’
Tādēļ redzi, nāks dienas, saka Tas Kungs, ka vairs nesacīs: „Tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo, kas Israēla bērnus no Ēģiptes zemes izvedis, “-
15 Instead, they will say ‘[I will do this, just as surely] as Yahweh lives—the one who brought [us] Israeli people back to our own land, from the lands to the north and from all the other lands to which he had (exiled us/forced us to go).’ [They will be able to say that] because [some day] I will bring your descendants back to this land that I gave to your ancestors.
Bet: „Tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs dzīvo, kas Israēla bērnus no ziemeļu zemes izvedis un no visām zemēm, kurp viņš tos bija aizdzinis“; jo Es tos atkal atvedīšu viņu zemē, ko esmu devis viņu tēviem.
16 But now I am summoning [your enemies who will seize the people of Judah like] [MET] fishermen [catch fish]. I am summoning those who will search for them on every mountain and hill, and in every cave, [like] [MET] hunters [search for animals to kill].
Redzi, Es sūtīšu pēc daudz zvejniekiem, saka Tas Kungs, - tiem tos būs zvejot, un pēc tam Es sūtīšu pēc daudz medniekiem, tie tos medīs pa visiem kalniem un pa visiem pakalniem, un pat akmens kalnu plaisumos.
17 I am watching them carefully. I see every sin [that they commit]. They will not [be able to] hide from me [MTY].
Jo Manas acis redz visus viņu ceļus, Manā priekšā tie nav apslēpti, nedz viņu noziegums apklāts priekš Manām acīm.
18 Because of all the wicked things that they have done [DOU], I will punish them twice as much [as I would punish other people. I will do that] because they have caused my land to become unacceptable to me because of their [worshiping] lifeless statues of detestable gods, and [also because they] have done many other evil things throughout my land.”
Bet papriekš Es viņu noziegumu un viņu grēku atmaksāšu divkārtīgi, tāpēc ka tie Manu zemi sagānījuši ar savu elka dievu maitām un Manu mantas tiesu piepildījuši ar savām negantībām.
19 [Then I prayed, saying], “Yahweh, you are the one who strengthens me and protects me [MET]; you are the one to whom I go when I have [troubles]. [Some day people from] nations all over the world will come to you and say, ‘Our ancestors left/gave us only something that was false; [they worshiped idols] that are completely worthless [DOU].
Ak Kungs, tu esi mans spēks un mans stiprums un mans patvērums bēdu dienā. Pie tevis nāks tautas no pasaules galiem un sacīs: tiešām, mūsu tēvi turējuši viltīgus un nelietīgus dievekļus, kas nekā nevarēja palīdzēt.
20 No one can [RHQ] make their own gods; the gods that they make are [only idols]; they are not real gods.’”
Vai tad cilvēkam sev būs dievus taisīt, kas dievi nav?
21 [Then Yahweh said], “Now I will show my power to [the people of Judah]; I will show them that I am truly very powerful [DOU]. Then, finally, they will know that I, Yahweh, [am the true God].”
Tādēļ redzi, Es, šim brīdim, tiem darīšu zināmu, Es tiem darīšu zināmu Savu roku un Savu varu, un tiem būs atzīt, ka Mans vārds ir: Tas Kungs.
