Ecechiela 20
1 Un notikās septītā gadā, piektā mēnesī, desmitā mēneša dienā, tad nāca vīri no Israēla vecajiem, To Kungu vaicāt, un apsēdās manā priekšā.
And it happened that, in the seventh year, in the fifth month, on the tenth of the month, men from the elders of Israel arrived, so that they might inquire of the Lord, and they sat before me.
2 Tad Tā Kunga vārds uz mani notika sacīdams:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
3 Cilvēka bērns, runā uz Israēla vecajiem un saki uz tiem: tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: vai jūs esat nākuši, Mani vaicāt? Tik tiešām kā Es dzīvoju, saka Tas Kungs Dievs: Es negribu, ka jūs Mani vaicājiet.
“Son of man, speak to the elders of Israel, and you shall say to them: Thus says the Lord God: Have you arrived in order to inquire of me? As I live, I will not answer you, says the Lord God.
4 Vai tu tos gribi tiesāt? Vai tu gribi tiesāt, cilvēka bērns? Tad stāsti tiem viņu tēvu negantības!
If you judge them, if you judge, O son of man, reveal to them the abominations of their fathers.
5 Un saki uz tiem: tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: tai dienā, kad Es Israēli izredzēju, tad Es pacēlu Savu roku pār Jēkaba nama dzimumu un tiem parādījos Ēģiptes zemē; Es pacēlu Savu roku pār tiem un sacīju: Es esmu Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs.
And you shall say to them: Thus says the Lord God: In the day when I chose Israel, and I lifted up my hand on behalf of the stock of the house of Jacob, and I appeared to them in the land of Egypt, and I lifted up my hand on their behalf, saying, ‘I am the Lord your God,’
6 Tai dienā Es pacēlu Savu roku pār tiem un tos izvedu no Ēģiptes zemes uz zemi, ko Es priekš viņiem biju izlūkojis, kur piens un medus tek, kas ir jaukāka pār visām zemēm.
in that day, I lifted up my hand for their sake, so that I would lead them away from the land of Egypt, into a land which I had provided for them, flowing with milk and honey, which was singular among all lands.
7 Un Es uz tiem sacīju: atmetiet ikviens savu acu gānekļus no sevis nost un neapgānāties ar Ēģiptes elkiem; Es esmu Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs.
And I said to them: ‘Let each one cast away the offenses of his eyes, and do not choose to defile yourselves with the idols of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.’
8 Bet tie bija stūrgalvīgi pret Mani un negribēja Mani klausīt; neviens neatmeta savu acu gānekļus un neatstājās no Ēģiptes elkiem. Tāpēc Es sacīju: Es pār tiem izgāzīšu Savu bardzību un izdarīšu pie tiem Savu dusmību pašā Ēģiptes zemē.
But they provoked me, and they were not willing to listen to me. Each one of them did not cast away the abominations of his eyes, nor did they leave behind the idols of Egypt. And so, I said that I would pour out my indignation upon them, and fulfill my wrath against them, in the midst of the land of Egypt.
9 Bet es darīju sava vārda dēļ, ka tas netaptu sagānīts priekš pagānu acīm, kuru vidū tie bija, priekš kuru acīm Es tiem biju parādījies, tos izvest no Ēģiptes zemes.
But I acted for the sake of my name, so that it would not be violated in the sight of the Gentiles, in the midst of whom they were, and among whom I appeared to them, so that I might lead them away from the land of Egypt.
10 Un Es tos izvedu no Ēģiptes zemes un tos vadīju tuksnesī.
Therefore, I cast them out of the land of Egypt, and I led them away into the desert.
11 Un Es tiem devu Savus likumus un tiem darīju zināmas tiesas, ko cilvēkam būs darīt, lai caur tām dzīvo.
And I gave them my precepts, and I revealed to them my judgments, which, if a man does them, he shall live by them.
12 Es tiem arī devu Savas svētās dienas, ka tās būtu par zīmi starp Mani un viņiem, lai tie atzītu, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs, kas tos svētī.
Moreover, I also gave to them my Sabbaths, so that these would be a sign between me and them, and so that they would know that I am the Lord, who sanctifies them.
13 Bet Israēla nams bija stūrgalvīgs pret Mani tuksnesī; tie nestaigāja Manos likumos un atmeta Manas tiesas, ko cilvēkam būs darīt, lai caur tām dzīvo; un tie ļoti sagānīja Manas svētās dienas, tā ka Es sacīju: Es Savu bardzību pār tiem gribu izgāzt tuksnesī un tiem darīt galu.
But the house of Israel provoked me in the desert. They did not walk in my precepts, and they cast aside my judgments, which, if a man does them, he shall live by them. And they grievously violated my Sabbaths. Therefore, I said that I would pour out my fury upon them in the desert, and that I would consume them.
14 Bet Es darīju Sava vārda dēļ, ka tas netaptu sagānīts priekš to pagānu acīm, priekš kuru acīm Es tos biju izvedis.
But I acted for the sake of my name, lest it be violated before the Gentiles, from whom I cast them out, in their sight.
15 Un tomēr Es Savu roku pacēlu pret tiem tuksnesī, tos nevest tai zemē, ko Es tiem biju devis, kur piens un medus tek, kas ir jaukāka pār visām zemēm:
And so I lifted up my hand over them in the desert, so as not to lead them into the land that I had given to them, flowing with milk and honey, the foremost of all lands.
16 Tādēļ ka tie atmeta Manas tiesas un nestaigāja Manos likumos un sagānīja Manas svētās dienas; jo viņu sirds dzinās pakaļ viņu elkiem.
For they cast aside my judgments, and they did not walk in my precepts, and they violated my Sabbaths. For their heart went after idols.
17 Bet Mana acs tos žēloja, ka Es tos nenomaitāju un tiem galu nedarīju tuksnesī.
Yet my eye was lenient concerning them, so that I did not utterly destroy them, nor did I consume them in the desert.
18 Un Es sacīju uz viņu bērniem tuksnesī: nestaigājiet savu tēvu likumos un nesargājiet viņu tiesas un neapgānāties ar viņu elkiem,
Then I said to their sons in the wilderness: ‘Do not choose to advance by the precepts of your fathers, nor should you observe their judgments. And do not be defiled by their idols.
19 Es esmu Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs; staigājiet manos likumos un sargājiet manas tiesas un dariet tās.
I am the Lord your God. Walk in my precepts, and observe my judgments, and accomplish them.
20 Un svētījiet manas svētās dienas, lai tās ir par zīmi starp mani un jums, un jūs samanāt, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs.
And sanctify my Sabbaths, so that these may be a sign between me and you, and so that you may know that I am the Lord your God.’
21 Bet arī tie bērni bija stūrgalvīgi pret Mani, tie nestaigāja Manos likumos un nesargāja Manas tiesas, tās nedarīdami, ko cilvēkam būs darīt, lai caur tām dzīvo; tie sagānīja Manas svētās dienas, tā ka Es sacīju: Es Savu bardzību pār tiem gribu izgāzt un Savu dusmību pret tiem izdarīt tuksnesī.
But their sons provoked me. They did not walk in my precepts. And they did not observe my judgments, so as to do them; for if a man does them, he shall live by them. And they violated my Sabbaths. And so, I threatened that I would pour out my fury upon them, and that I would fulfill my wrath among them in the desert.
22 Bet Es atturēju Savu roku Sava vārda dēļ, ka tas netaptu sagānīts priekš to pagānu acīm, priekš kuru acīm Es tos biju izvedis.
But I turned aside my hand, and I acted for the sake of my name, so that it would not be violated before the Gentiles, from whom I cast them out, before their eyes.
23 Un taču Es pacēlu Savu roku pret tiem tuksnesī, tos izkaisīt starp tiem pagāniem un tos izputināt pa tām valstīm,
Again, I lifted up my hand against them, in the wilderness, so that I would disperse them among the nations, and scatter them among the lands.
24 Tādēļ ka tie Manas tiesas nebija darījuši, bet bija atmetuši Manus likumus un sagānījuši Manas svētās dienas un viņu acis dzinās pakaļ viņu tēvu elkiem.
For they had not accomplished my judgments, and they had rejected my precepts, and they had violated my Sabbaths. And their eyes had been after the idols of their fathers.
25 Tāpēc Es tiem arī devu likumus, kas nebija labi, un tiesas, caur ko tie nevarēja dzīvot.
Therefore, I also gave them precepts that were not good, and judgments by which they shall not live.
26 Un Es tos sagānīju ar viņu dāvanām, caur to, ka tie ikvienai pirmdzimtībai lika caur uguni iet, lai Es tos nopostītu, lai tie samanītu, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs.
And I defiled them by their own gifts, when they offered everything that opened the womb, because of their offenses. And they shall know that I am the Lord.
27 Tādēļ cilvēka bērns, runā uz Israēla namu un saki uz tiem: tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: jūsu tēvi Mani vēl ir zaimojuši, atkāpdamies no Manis.
For this reason, son of man, speak to the house of Israel, and you shall say to them: Thus says the Lord God. Yet also in this did your fathers blaspheme me, after they had spurned and despised me,
28 Kad Es tos biju novedis uz to zemi, par ko Savu roku biju pacēlis, viņiem to dot, tad tie izraudzījās ikkatru augstu pakalnu un ikkatru kuplu koku, un upurēja tur savus upurus un nonesa tur savas riebīgās dāvanas un kvēpināja tur savu saldo smaržu un upurēja turpat savus dzeramos upurus.
though I had led them into the land, about which I lifted up my hand, so that I might give it to them: They saw every lofty hill and every leafy tree, and there they immolated their victims, and there they presented the provocation of their oblations, and there they stationed their sweet fragrances, and poured out their libations.
29 Un Es uz tiem sacīju: kas tas par kalnu, kurp jūs ejat? Bet šī vārds līdz šai dienai ir nosaukts elka kalns.
And I said to them, ‘What is exalted about the place to which you go?’ And yet its name is called ‘Exalted,’ even to this day.
30 Tādēļ saki uz Israēla namu: tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: jūs esat sagānījušies pa savu tēvu ceļiem un maukojušies viņu gānekļiem pakaļ.
Because of this, say to the house of Israel: Thus says the Lord God: Certainly, you are defiled by the way of your fathers, and you have fornicated after their stumbling blocks.
31 Tiešām, savas dāvanas upurēdami, saviem bērniem likdami caur uguni iet, jūs esat apgānījušies pie visiem saviem elkiem līdz šai dienai; vai Es no jums ļautos vaicāties, ak Israēla nams! Tik tiešām kā Es dzīvoju, saka Tas Kungs Dievs, Es negribu, ka jūs Mani vaicājiet.
And you are being defiled by all of your idols, even to this day, by the oblation of your gifts, when you lead your sons through the fire. And should I respond to you, O house of Israel? As I live, says the Lord God, I will not answer you.
32 Un kas jums prātā nācis, tas mūžam nenotiks, ka jūs sakāt: mēs turēsimies kā tās (pagānu) tautas un kā tās ciltis visās zemēs kalposim kokam un akmenim.
And the plan of your mind will not occur, saying: ‘We will be like the Gentiles, and like the families of the earth, so that we worship what is wood and stone.’
33 Tik tiešām kā Es dzīvoju, saka Tas Kungs Dievs, ar stipru roku un izstieptu elkoni un ar izgāztu bardzību Es pār jums gribu valdīt.
As I live, says the Lord God, I will reign over you with a strong hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with fury poured forth.
34 Es jūs izvedīšu no tām tautām un jūs sapulcināšu no tām valstīm, kurp esat izkaisīti, ar stipru roku un izstieptu elkoni un ar izgāztu bardzību.
And I will lead you away from the peoples. And I will gather you from the lands into which you were dispersed. I will reign over you with a powerful hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with fury poured out.
35 Un Es jūs vedīšu uz tautu tuksnesi, un tur es ar jums tiesāšos vaigu vaigā.
And I will lead you into the desert of the peoples, and there I will enter into judgment with you, face to face.
36 Tā kā Es ar jūsu tēviem esmu tiesājies Ēģiptes zemes tuksnesī, tāpat Es ar jums tiesāšos, saka Tas Kungs Dievs.
Just as I contended in judgment against your fathers in the desert of the land of Egypt, so also will I enter into judgment with you, says the Lord God.
37 Un Es jums likšu staigāt apakš rīkstes un jūs vedīšu derības saitēs.
And I will subject you to my scepter, and I will lead you into the bonds of the covenant.
38 Un Es izmēzīšu no jums tos atkāpējus un atkritējus no Manis, un Es tos gan izvedīšu no tās zemes, kur piemita, bet uz Israēla zemi tie vairs nenāks, un jūs samanīsiet, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs.
And I will select, from among you, the transgressors and the impious. And I will lead them away from the land of their sojourn, but they shall not enter into the land of Israel. And you shall know that I am the Lord.
39 Bet jūs no Israēla nama, tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: noejat, kalpojiet ikviens saviem elkiem! Bet pēclaikā, tad tiešām jūs Mani klausīsiet un vairs neapgānīsiet Manu svēto vārdu ar savām dāvanām un ar saviem elkiem.
And as for you, house of Israel: thus says the Lord God: Walk, each one of you, after your idols and serve them. But if in this also you will not listen to me, and you continue to defile my holy name with your gifts and with your idols,
40 Jo uz Mana svētā kalna, uz Israēla augstā kalna, saka Tas Kungs Dievs, tur Man kalpos viss Israēla nams, visi, kas tanī zemē; tur man pie tiem būs labs prāts, un tur Es prasīšu jūsu cilājamos upurus un jūsu upuru pirmajus, ar visu, ko jūs Man svētījat.
on my holy mountain, on the exalted mountain of Israel, says the Lord God, there all the house of Israel shall serve me; all of them, I say, in the land in which they shall please me, and there I will require your first-fruits, and the foremost of your tithes, with all your sanctifications.
41 Man būs labs prāts pie jums kā pie saldas smaržas, kad Es jūs no tām tautām izvedīšu un jūs sapulcināšu no tām valstīm, kur bijāt izkaisīti, un Es caur jums pagodināšos priekš pagānu acīm.
I will receive from you a fragrance of sweetness, when I will have led you away from the peoples, and gathered you from the lands into which you were dispersed. And I will be sanctified in you before the eyes of the nations.
42 Un jūs samanīsiet, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs, kad Es jūs ievedīšu Israēla zemē, tai zemē, par ko Es Savu roku esmu pacēlis, to dot jūsu tēviem.
And you shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have led you into the land of Israel, into the land about which I lifted up my hand, so that I would give it to your fathers.
43 Tad jūs tur pieminēsiet savus ceļus un visus savus darbus, ar ko jūs esat apgānījušies, un jums pašiem riebs visa jūsu bezdievība, ko esat darījuši.
And there you shall remember your ways and all your wickedness, by which you have been defiled. And you will be displeased with yourselves in your own sight, over all your evil deeds which you did.
44 Tā jūs samanīsiet, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs, kad Es ar jums būšu darījis Sava vārda dēļ, ne pēc jūsu nikniem ceļiem un netikliem darbiem, ak Israēla nams, saka Tas Kungs Dievs.
And you shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have acted well toward you for the sake of my name, and not according to your evil ways, nor according to your very great wickedness, O house of Israel, says the Lord God.”
45 Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz mani sacīdams:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
46 Cilvēka bērns, griez savu vaigu pret dienvidiem, un lai (tava valoda) pil pret dienvidiem, un sludini pret to mežu dienvidu klajumā.
“Son of man, set your face against the way of the south, and pour in drops toward Africa, and prophesy against the forest of the field of the meridian.
47 Un saki uz to mežu dienvidos: klausi Tā Kunga vārdu! Tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: redzi Es iededzināšu uguni iekš tevis, un tas iekš tevis aprīs visus zaļos kokus un visus sausos kokus; tās varenās liesmas nevarēs izdzēst, un tā sadegs viss, kas ir no dienvidiem līdz ziemeļiem.
And you shall say to the meridian forest: Listen to the word of the Lord. Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will kindle a fire in you, and I will burn up within you every green tree and every dry tree. The flame of the kindling will not be extinguished. And every face will be burned up within it, from the south, even to the north.
48 Un visa miesa redzēs, ka Es Tas Kungs to esmu iededzinājis; tas netaps izdzēsts.
And all flesh will see that I, the Lord, have kindled it, and that it will not be extinguished.”
49 Un es sacīju: ak Kungs Dievs! Tie par mani saka: vai tas nav līdzības stāstītājs?
And I said: “Alas, alas, alas, O Lord God! They are saying about me: ‘Does this man not speak except through parables?’”
