Ecechiela 18
1 Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz mani sacīdams:
And the word of Yahweh came unto me saying:
2 Kāpēc jūs lietojiet šo sakāmo vārdu Israēla zemē un sakāt: tēvi ēduši skābas vīnogas un bērniem atmizējuši zobi.
What occasion have ye, to be using this proverb, concerning the soil of Israel, saying, —Fathers eat sour grapes, And the children’s teeth are blunted?
3 Tik tiešām kā Es dzīvoju, saka Tas Kungs Dievs, pie jums vairs nenotiks ka šo sakāmo vārdu lietos iekš Israēla.
As I live, Declareth My Lord, Yahweh, Surely ye shall have occasion no longer to use this proverb, in Israel.
4 Redzi, visas dvēseles Man pieder; kā tēva dvēsele, tā arī dēla dvēsele, Man tās pieder. Kura dvēsele apgrēkojās, tā mirs.
Lo! as for all persons, mine they are, As the person of the father, so also the person of the son, mine they are, —The person that sinneth, the same shall die.
5 Kad nu kas ir taisns un dara, kas tiesa un taisnība,
But when, any man, shall be righteous, and do justice and righteousness:
6 Kas neēd uz (elku)kalniem un nepaceļ savas acis uz Israēla nama elkiem, kas sava tuvāka sievu neapgāna un neguļ pie sārņainas sievas,
Upon the mountains, hath not eaten, And his eyes, hath not lifted up unto the manufactured gods of the house of Israel, And the wife of his neighbour, hath not defiled, And unto a woman during her removal, hath not approached;
7 Un kas nevienu nenospaida un parādniekam dod atpakaļ viņa ķīlu, kas nelaupa, bet izsalkušam dod maizes un apģērbj pliko ar drēbēm,
And no man, hath treated with violence, But his debt-pledge, hath restored. Plunder, hath not seized, — His bread—to the famished, hath given, And the naked, hath covered with clothing;
8 Kas augļus nedzen nedz pagaidus plēš, savu roku izsargā no netaisnības un taisnu tiesu nes starp vienu un otru,
Upon interest, hath not put out his money. And increase, hath not accepted, From dishonesty, hath turned back his hand, — Justice in truth, hath done, between man and man;
9 Kas staigā Manos likumos un sargā Manas tiesas, turēdams ticību, - tas ir taisns, tas dzīvos, saka Tas Kungs Dievs.
In my statutes, hath walked. And my regulations, hath observed to do them in truth, Righteous, he is, He shall surely live, Declareth My Lord. Yahweh.
10 Bet ja tas dzemdinājis dēlu, kas ir laupītājs, kas asinis izlej, kas savam brālim dara vienu no šīm lietām,
But he hath begotten a son Who is a violent man A shedder of blood, - Who doeth the like of any of these things;
11 Un kas nedara visas šīs lietas, bet ēd uz (elku)kalniem un apgāna sava tuvāka sievu,
Whereas he, none of those other things, doeth, For indeed upon the mountains, he hath eaten, And the wife of his neighbour, hath defiled;
12 Kas nospaida nabagu un bēdīgo, laupa laupījumu, neatdod ķīlu un paceļ savas acis uz elkiem, dara negantību,
The oppressed and the needy, hath treated with violence, Hath ruthlessly plundered, The pledge, hath not restored, But unto the manufactured gods, hath lifted up his eyes, Abomination, hath wrought;
13 Izdod uz augļiem un plēš pagaidus, - vai tam būs dzīvot? Tam nebūs dzīvot; tāpēc ka tas ir darījis visas tādas negantības, mirtin tam būs mirt, - viņa asinis lai paliek uz viņa.
Upon interest, hath put out. And increase, hath accepted—, And shall he live? He shall not live All these abominations, he hath done, He shall surely be put to death, His blood, upon himself, shall be.
14 Bet redzi, ja tas dzemdinājis dēlu, kas redz visus tēva grēkus, ko tas dara, un bīstas un nedara tāpat,
But lo! he hath begotten a son, Who hath considered all the sins of his father which he hath done, - Yea he hath considered and not done like them:
15 Neēd uz (elku)kalniem un nepaceļ savas acis uz Israēla nama elkiem, neapgāna sava tuvākā sievu,
Upon the mountains, hath not eaten, And his eyes, hath not lifted up unto the manufactured gods of the house of Israel, The wife of his neighbour, hath not defiled;
16 Un nevienu nenospaida, ķīlu nepatur un laupījumu nelaupa, savu maizi dod izsalkušiem un pliko apģērbj ar drēbēm,
And no man, hath he treated with violence, Hath by no means withholden the pledge, And plunder, hath not seized, — His bread—to the famished, hath given And the naked, hath covered with clothing;
17 Savu roku izsargā no netaisnības, neplēš augļus un pagaidus, dara Manas tiesas un staigā Manos likumos, tam nebūs mirt par sava tēva netaisnību, bet tiešām tam būs dzīvot.
From dishonesty, hath turned back his hand Neither interest nor increase, hath accepted, my regulations, hath executed, In my statutes, hath walked, — He shall not die for the iniquity of his father He shall surely live.
18 Bet viņa tēvs, tāpēc ka darījis varas darbu, laupījis brāļa mantu, un darījis savu ļaužu starpā, kas nebija labi, redzi, tam būs mirt par savu noziegumu.
His father Because he exacted unjust gain Seized plunder of a brother, And that which was not good, had done in the midst of his people Therefore lo! he died, in his iniquity.
19 Bet jūs sakāt: Kāpēc dēlam nebūs nest sava tēva noziegumu? Tiešām, dēls, kas darījis tiesu un taisnību, turējis visus Manus likumus un tos darījis, tam tiešām būs dzīvot! Tai dvēselei, kas grēko, tai būs mirt.
Will ye then say. Why hath not the son borne a part of the iniquity of the father? But the son hath done justice and righteousness, All my statutes, hath observed and done them He shall surely live.
20 Dēlam nebūs nest tēva noziegumu, nedz tēvam nest dēla noziegumu, uz taisna paliks viņa taisnība, un uz bezdievīga paliks viņa bezdievība.
The person that sinneth, the same, shall die, — A, son, shall not bear a part of the iniquity of, the father Neither shall, a father, bear a part of the iniquity of the son, the righteousness of the righteous, upon himself, shall be. And, the lawlessness of a lawless man, upon himself, shall be.
21 Bet kad bezdievīgais atgriežas no visiem saviem grēkiem, ko tas darījis, un tur visus Manus likumus un dara, kas tiesa un taisnība, tad tas tiešām dzīvos un nemirs.
But as for the lawless man— When he shall turn back from all his sins which he hath committed, And observe all my statutes, And do justice and righteousness He shall surely live. He shall not die:
22 Visi viņa grēki, ko viņš darījis, viņam netaps pieminēti; savas taisnības dēļ, ko viņš dara, viņš dzīvos.
None of his transgressions which he hath committed shall be remembered against him, —In his righteousness which he hath done, he shall live.
23 Vai Man bezdievīgā nāve varētu patikt? saka Tas Kungs Dievs, vai Man nepatīk, ka viņš atgriežas no sava ceļa un dzīvo?
Could I take delight, in the death of the lawless? Demandeth My Lord. Yahweh. Must it not be in his turning from his ways in which case he shall live?
24 Bet kad taisnais nogriežas no savas taisnības un dara netaisnību un dara visu negantību, ko bezdievīgais dara, vai tam būs dzīvot? Visa viņa taisnība, ko viņš darījis, netaps pieminēta tās pārkāpšanas dēļ, ar ko viņš pārkāpis, un to grēku dēļ, ar ko viņš apgrēkojies, viņš mirs.
But, when a righteous man, shall turn away, from his righteousness and do that which is perverse, Shall do, according to all the abominations which the lawless man hath done, Shall he live? None of his righteous acts which he hath done, shall be remembered, In his treachery wherein he hath been treacherous, And in his sin wherein he hath sinned, In them, shall he die.
25 Bet jūs sakāt: Tā Kunga ceļš nav taisns. Klausiet tad, jūs no Israēla nama! Vai Mans ceļš nav taisns? Vai jo vairāk jūsu ceļi nav netaisni?
Can ye then say— The way of My Lord will not be equal? Hear I pray you O house of Israel, Will my way, not be equal? Will not your ways be unequal?
26 Kad taisnais nogriežas no savas taisnības un dara netaisnību un mirst tās dēļ, tad viņš mirst tās netaisnības dēļ, ko viņš darījis.
When a righteous man shall turn away from his righteousness and do that which is perverse and die because of those things In his own perversity which he hath done, shall he die.
27 Bet kad bezdievīgais atgriežas no savas bezdievības, ko viņš darījis, un dara, kas tiesa un taisnība, tas paturēs savu dvēseli dzīvu.
But when a lawless man turneth away from his lawlessness which he hath done, And hath done justice and righteousness He, shall save his own soul, alive:
28 Tāpēc ka viņš liek vērā un atgriežas no visiem saviem grēkiem, ko viņš darījis, tad viņš tiešām dzīvos, viņš nemirs.
When he considered, then he turned away from all his transgressions which he had committed, He shall surely live. He shall not die.
29 Un tomēr Israēla nams saka: Tā Kunga ceļš nav taisns. Vai Mani ceļi, ak Israēla nams, nav taisni? Vai jo vairāk jūsu ceļi nav netaisni?
Can the house of Israel then say- The way of My Lord will not be equal? Will my ways, not be equal O house of Israel? Will not your ways be unequal?
30 Tādēļ Es jūs tiesāšu, jūs no Israēla nama, ikvienu pēc viņa ceļiem, saka Tas Kungs Dievs. Atgriežaties un griežaties atpakaļ no visiem saviem pārkāpumiem, ka noziegums jums nepaliek par valgu.
Therefore, Every man according to his own ways, will I judge you O house of Israel, Declareth My Lord Yahweh, Return ye—and make good your return—from all your transgressions, That they become not unto you a stumbling block of iniquity.
31 Atmetiet nost no sevis visus savus pārkāpumus, ar ko jūs esat pārkāpuši, un dariet sev jaunu sirdi un jaunu garu. Jo kāpēc jūs gribat mirt, jūs no Israēla nama?
Cast off from you all your transgressions which ye have committed against me, And make you a new heart; And a new spirit, - For why should ye die, O house of Israel?
32 Jo Man nav patikšanas pie mirēja nāves, saka Tas Kungs Dievs. Tāpēc atgriežaties un dzīvojiet.
For I cannot take delight in the death of him that dieth, Declareth My Lord Yahweh, Make good your return then and, live!
