< Micah 5 >
1 “But now, [you people of Jerusalem, gather your troops together, ] [because even though] you have a wall [around your city to protect it], [enemy soldiers] are surrounding the city. And [soon] they will strike your leader on his face, with a rod.”
Nu tad pulcējies, pulku meita; viņi pret mums apmetīsies. Tie ar rīksti sitīs Israēla soģi vaigā.
2 But you [people of] [APO] Bethlehem in Ephrathah [district need to know that] even though your [town] is a very small one among all the towns in Judah, someone who will rule Israel will be born in your town. [He will be] someone whose family has existed a very long time ago [DOU].
Un tu Bētleme Efrata, jebšu tu esi maza starp tiem tūkstošiem no Jūda, no tevis Man izies (Tas), kas būs Valdnieks iekš Israēla, un kura iziešana ir no iesākuma, no mūžīgām dienām.
3 [But now] you people of Israel will be conquered by your enemies; [but it will be for only a short time], like [MET] [the short time that] women have great pain while their babies are being born. After that, your fellow-countrymen who were (exiled/forced to go to other countries) will return to their own country.
Tādēļ Viņš tos nodos līdz tam laikam, kur dzemdētāja dzemdēs. Tad viņa atlikušie brāļi atgriezīsies pie Israēla bērniem.
4 And that man who will be ruling [there in Jerusalem] will stand and lead his people well, because Yahweh, his God, will cause him to be strong and greatly honored. Then the people whom he rules will live [in Jerusalem] safely; he will be greatly honored by people all over the earth, [so no one will dare to attack Jerusalem].
Un Viņš stāvēs un ganīs Tā Kunga spēkā, ar Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, vārda augstību. Un tie dzīvos, jo nu Viņš taps liels līdz pasaules galiem.
5 And he will cause things to go well [for his people]. When [the army of] Assyria attacks our country and breaks though our fortresses, we will appoint (seven or eight/several) leaders [to lead our army] to fight against them.
Un šis būs miers. Kad Asurs nāks mūsu zemē un ieies mūsu pilīs, tad mēs pret to iecelsim septiņus ganus un astoņus cilvēku virsniekus.
6 With their swords [our army] will defeat the [army of] Assyria, [whose capital was founded by] Nimrod [long ago]. So our army will rescue us from the Assyrian [army] when they invade our country [DOU].
Tie noganīs Asura zemi ar zobenu un Nimroda zemi viņas vārtos. Tā Viņš mūs izglābs no Asura, kad tas nāks mūsu zemē, un kad ieies mūsu robežās.
7 The (descendants of Jacob/Israelis) who survive will be [a blessing] to the people of other nations, like [SIM] dew and rain sent by Yahweh do good to the grass. The Israelis will not trust in humans [to help them]; instead, they will rely on Yahweh.
Un Jēkaba atlikums būs daudz tautu starpā kā rasa no Tā Kunga, kā lietus lāses uz zāles, kas negaida uz nevienu nedz cerē uz cilvēka bērnu.
8 In the midst of [their enemies in] many people-groups [DOU], the descendants of Jacob who remain alive will be like [SIM] a lion among the [other] wild beasts of the forest, like [SIM] a young lion who goes among a flock of sheep and pounces [on one] and (mauls it/tears it to pieces), and no one will be able to rescue [that sheep].
Tiešām, Jēkaba atlikums būs pagānu starpā, daudz tautu vidū, kā lauva starp meža zvēriem, kā jauns lauva starp avju ganāmiem pulkiem, kas ielauzies samin un saplosa, un nav glābēja.
9 You Israelis will defeat [MTY] all your enemies and completely destroy them.
Tava roka būs paaugstināta pār taviem pretiniekiem, un visi tavi ienaidnieki taps izdeldēti.
10 Yahweh says, “At that time, I will destroy [you Israeli people’s] horses [that your soldiers use in war] and your chariots.
“Un notiks tai dienā”, saka Tas Kungs, “ka Es izdeldēšu tavus zirgus no tava vidus un iznīcināšu tavus ratus.
11 I will tear down your city [walls] and destroy all your fortified cities.
Un Es izdeldēšu tavas zemes pilsētas un nolauzīšu visas tavas stiprās vietas.
12 I will get rid of all those among you who practice magic and the (fortune-tellers/those who say that they can predict what will happen in the future).
Un Es izdeldēšu buršanu no tavas rokas, ka zīlnieki pie tevis vairs nebūs.
13 I will destroy [all] your idols and [sacred stone] pillars, and then you will no longer bow down [and worship] things that you yourselves [SYN] have made.
Un Es izdeldēšu tavus dievekļus un tavus elkudievu stabus no tava vidus, un tu nemetīsies zemē priekš savu roku darba.
14 I will get rid of your poles [that represent the goddess] Asherah, and [I will also] destroy all your idols.
Es izraušu tavas ašeras no tava vidus un iznīcināšu tavas pilsētas.
15 And because I will be very angry, I will [also] punish [the people of] all the nations who have not obeyed [me].”
Un Es atriebšos ar dusmību un bardzību pie tiem pagāniem, kas neklausa.”
