Isaiah 24
1 Behold, the LORD makes the earth empty, makes it waste, turns it upside down, and scatters its inhabitants.
Redzi, Tas Kungs zemi dara tukšu, un to izposta un pārvērš viņas seju un izklīdina viņas iedzīvotājus.
2 It will be as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the creditor, so with the debtor; as with the taker of interest, so with the giver of interest.
Un kā tiem ļaudīm, tāpat klāsies priesterim; kā kalpam, tāpat viņa kungam; kā kalponei tāpat viņas saimniecei; kā pircējam, tāpat pārdevējam; kā aizdevējam, tāpat aizņēmējam; kā pagaidu dzinējam, tāpat pagaidu maksātajam.
3 The earth will be utterly emptied and utterly laid waste; for the LORD has spoken this word.
Postīt to zemi izpostīs, un laupīt viņu izlaupīs; jo Tas Kungs šo vārdu ir runājis.
4 The earth mourns and fades away. The world languishes and fades away. The lofty people of the earth languish.
Zeme tvīkst un nīkst, zemes virsas gurst un vīst, ļaužu augstie tai zemē gurst.
5 The earth also is polluted under its inhabitants, because they have transgressed the laws, violated the statutes, and broken the everlasting covenant.
Jo zeme ir sagānīta no saviem iedzīvotājiem, jo tie pārkāpj bauslību un pārgroza likumu un lauž to mūžīgo derību.
6 Therefore the curse has devoured the earth, and those who dwell therein are found guilty. Therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burnt, and few men are left.
Tādēļ lāsti zemi noēd, un kas tur dzīvo, tiem jācieš; tādēļ zemes iedzīvotāji nokalst un maz cilvēku atliks.
7 The new wine mourns. The vine languishes. All the merry-hearted sigh.
Vīns nonīcis, vīna koks savītis, visi, kam bija priecīga sirds, nopūšas.
8 The mirth of tambourines ceases. The sound of those who rejoice ends. The joy of the harp ceases.
Bungu prieks apklusis, līksmu ļaužu troksnis nostājies, kokles prieks pagalam.
9 They will not drink wine with a song. Strong drink will be bitter to those who drink it.
Vīnu vairs nedzer ar dziesmām, stiprais dzēriens dzērājiem rūgts.
10 The confused city is broken down. Every house is shut up, that no man may come in.
Tukša pilsēta izpostīta, visi nami aizslēgti, ka nevar ieiet.
11 There is a crying in the streets because of the wine. All joy is darkened. The mirth of the land is gone.
Vīna pēc žēlojās uz ielām, zuduši visi prieki, zemes līksmība ir projām.
12 The city is left in desolation, and the gate is struck with destruction.
Posts vien pilsētā atlicis, un vārti salauzti drupu drupās.
13 For it will be so within the earth amongst the peoples, as the shaking of an olive tree, as the gleanings when the vintage is done.
Jo tā notiks pa zemes virsu tautu starpā, kā kad eļļas koku nokrata, tā kā kad atlikas lasa pēc ķekaru noņemšanas.
14 These shall lift up their voice. They will shout for the majesty of the LORD. They cry aloud from the sea.
Tie paceļ savu balsi un dzied priecīgi, pār Tā Kunga godību tie gavilē no jūras puses.
15 Therefore glorify the LORD in the east, even the name of the LORD, the God of Israel, in the islands of the sea!
Tādēļ godinājiet To Kungu austruma zemē, tais jūras salās Tā Kunga, Israēla Dieva, vārdu.
16 From the uttermost part of the earth have we heard songs. Glory to the righteous! But I said, “I pine away! I pine away! woe is me!” The treacherous have dealt treacherously. Yes, the treacherous have dealt very treacherously.
No zemes gala mēs dzirdam dziesmas par godu tam taisnam. Bet man jāsaka: nelaime, nelaime, ak vai, man! Laupītāji laupa, laupīdami laupa laupītāji.
17 Fear, the pit, and the snare are on you who inhabit the earth.
Briesmas un bedre un valgs pār tevi, tu zemes iedzīvotājs!
18 It will happen that he who flees from the noise of the fear will fall into the pit; and he who comes up out of the middle of the pit will be taken in the snare; for the windows on high are opened, and the foundations of the earth tremble.
Kas no briesmu balss izbiedēts bēgs, tas kritīs bedrē, un kas no bedres izkāps, tas taps sagūstīts valgā. Jo augstības logi atvērti un zemes pamati trīc.
19 The earth is utterly broken. The earth is torn apart. The earth is shaken violently.
Zeme sprāgdama sprāgs, zeme plīsdama plīsīs, zeme trīcēdama trīcēs,
20 The earth will stagger like a drunken man, and will sway back and forth like a hammock. Its disobedience will be heavy on it, and it will fall and not rise again.
Zeme streipuļos kā piedzēris vīrs un šūposies kā šūpulis, un viņas grēki uz viņas būs smagi, un viņa kritīs un necelsies vairs augšām.
21 It will happen in that day that the LORD will punish the army of the high ones on high, and the kings of the earth on the earth.
Un tai dienā Tas Kungs piemeklēs to augstības karaspēku augstībā un tos zemes ķēniņus virs zemes.
22 They will be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and will be shut up in the prison; and after many days they will be visited.
Un tie taps ieslodzīti kā cietumnieki bedrē, un taps saslēgti cietumā, un pēc ilga laika tie atkal taps piemeklēti.
23 Then the moon will be confounded, and the sun ashamed; for the LORD of Hosts will reign on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem; and glory will be before his elders.
Un mēnesis nosarks, un saule nobālēs, jo Tas Kungs Cebaot ir ķēniņš Ciānas kalnā un Jeruzālemē, un viņas vecaju priekšā būs godība.
