Ecechiela 21
1 Un Tā Kunga vārds uz mani notika sacīdams:
And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 Cilvēka bērns, griez savu vaigu pret Jeruzālemi, un lai (tava valoda) pil pret tām svētām vietām un sludini pret Israēla zemi.
“Son of man, set your face against Jerusalem and preach against the sanctuaries. Prophesy against the land of Israel
3 Un saki uz Israēla zemi: tā saka Tas Kungs: redzi, Es pret tevi celšos un izvilkšu Savu zobenu no makstīm un izsakņošu no tevis taisnus un bezdievīgus.
and tell her that this is what the LORD says: ‘I am against you, and I will draw My sword from its sheath and cut off from you both the righteous and the wicked.
4 Lai Es nu no tevis izdeldu gan taisnus gan bezdievīgus, tad Mans zobens no savām makstīm izlēks pret visu miesu no dienvidiem līdz ziemeļiem.
Because I will cut off both the righteous and the wicked, My sword will be unsheathed against everyone from south to north.
5 Un visa miesa atzīs, ka Es, Tas Kungs, esmu izvilcis Savu zobenu no makstīm; tas atkal vairs netaps iebāzts.
Then all flesh will know that I, the LORD, have taken My sword from its sheath, not to return it again.’
6 Bet tu, ak cilvēka bērns, nopūties! Ar satriektiem gurniem un rūgtās skumjās nopūties priekš viņu acīm.
But you, son of man, groan! Groan before their eyes with a broken heart and bitter grief.
7 Un kad tie uz tevi sacīs: ko tu vaidi? Tad tev būs sacīt: tās baumas dēļ ka tā nāk, un visas sirdis izkusīs, un visas rokas nogurs, un visa drošība zudīs, un visi ceļi sašļuks; redzi, tā nāks un notiks, saka Tas Kungs Dievs.
And when they ask, ‘Why are you groaning?’ you are to say, ‘Because of the news that is coming. Every heart will melt, and every hand will go limp. Every spirit will faint, and every knee will turn to water.’ Yes, it is coming and it will surely happen, declares the Lord GOD.”
8 Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz mani sacīdams:
Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
9 Cilvēka bērns, sludini un saki: tā saka Tas Kungs: saki: zobens, zobens ir trīts un asināts.
“Son of man, prophesy and tell them that this is what the Lord says: ‘A sword, a sword, sharpened and polished—
10 Tas ir trīts, lai kautin kauj, tas ir asināts, lai spīd kā zibens. Vai tad mums būs priecāties, Mana dēla(Jūda) scepteris nicina visus kokus?
it is sharpened for the slaughter, polished to flash like lightning! Should we rejoice in the scepter of My son? The sword despises every such stick.
11 Un Viņš to (zobenu) devis, lai gludina(spodrina) ka to ņem rokā; tas zobens ir trīts un asināts, lai kāvējam to dod rokā.
The sword is appointed to be polished, to be grasped in the hand. It is sharpened and polished, to be placed in the hand of the slayer.
12 Kliedz un kauc, cilvēka bērns! Jo tas celsies pret Maniem ļaudīm, tas celsies pret visiem Israēla valdniekiem; zobenam tie nodoti līdz ar Maniem ļaudīm; tādēļ sit uz saviem gurniem.
Cry out and wail, O son of man, for the sword is wielded against My people; it is against all the princes of Israel! They are tossed to the sword with My people; therefore strike your thigh.
13 Tiešām, tas zobens ir pārbaudīts; un kas būs, kad tas scepteris, kas nicina, iznīks? saka Tas Kungs Dievs.
Surely testing will come! And what if even the scepter, which the sword despises, does not continue?’
14 Tad nu tu, cilvēka bērns, sludini un sasit rokas, jo tas zobens nāks ar divkārtīgu spēku trešo reiz, kaujams zobens, tas lielais kaujamais zobens, tiem visapkārt.
‘So then, son of man, prophesy and strike your hands together. Let the sword strike two times, even three. It is a sword that slays, a sword of great slaughter closing in on every side!
15 Lai sirds izkūst un kritušo ir daudz, visos viņu vārtos Es sūtu draudošu zobenu. Ak, tas ir taisīts, lai zib, un ir trīts, lai kauj!
So that their hearts may melt and many may stumble, I have appointed at all their gates a sword for slaughter. Yes, it is ready to flash like lightning; it is drawn for slaughter.
16 Cērt spēcīgi, sit pa labo roku, griezies, sit pa kreiso roku, kurp tavs asmens griežas.
Slash to the right; set your blade to the left— wherever your blade is directed.
17 Arī Es pats sasitīšu Savas rokas un izdarīšu Savu bardzību; Es, Tas Kungs, to esmu runājis.
I too will strike My hands together, and I will satisfy My wrath.’
18 Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz mani sacīdams:
Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
19 Tu tad, ak cilvēka bērns, taisi sev divus ceļus, pa kuriem Bābeles ķēniņa zobenam jānāk; no vienas zemes tiem abiem būs iziet. Taisi roku(virziena rādītājs) ceļa iesākumā, kas rāda uz pilsētu.
“Now you, son of man, mark out two roads for the sword of the king of Babylon to take, both starting from the same land. And make a signpost where the road branches off to each city.
20 Taisi ceļu, pa ko tas zobens lai nāk pret Amona bērnu Rabu un (otru) pret Jūdu uz stipro Jeruzālemes pilsētu.
Mark out one road for the sword to come against Rabbah of the Ammonites, and another against Judah into fortified Jerusalem.
21 Jo Bābeles ķēniņš stāvēs uz ceļa jūtīm, kur tie divi ceļi šķirās, ar zīlēšanu zīlēdams, viņš metīs bultas, viņš vaicās elkadievus, viņš apraudzīs (upuru)aknas.
For the king of Babylon stands at the fork in the road, at the junction of the two roads, to seek an omen: He shakes the arrows, he consults the idols, he examines the liver.
22 Tā zīlēšana zīmēs pa viņa labo roku uz Jeruzālemi, tur pievest āžus, atvērt muti uz kliegšanu, pacelt balsi uz kara troksni, likt āžus pret vārtiem, uzmest vaļņus un uztaisīt bulverķus.
In his right hand appears the portent for Jerusalem, where he is to set up battering rams, to call for the slaughter, to lift a battle cry, to direct the battering rams against the gates, to build a ramp, and to erect a siege wall.
23 Šī būs kā aplama zīlēšana viņu acīs, tās zvērēšanas dēļ kas viņiem zvērēta; bet Viņš pieminēs to noziegumu un tos gūstīs.
It will seem like a false omen to the eyes of those who have sworn allegiance to him, but it will draw attention to their guilt and take them captive.
24 Tādēļ tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: Tāpēc ka jūs savus noziegumus esat atgādinājuši, savus pārkāpumus atklādami, tā ka jūsu grēki top redzēti visos jūsu darbos; tāpēc ka jūs topat pieminēti, tad jūs ar rokām tapsiet gūstīti.
Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Because you have drawn attention to your guilt, exposing your transgressions, so that your sins are revealed in all your deeds—because you have come to remembrance—you shall be taken in hand.
25 Un tu, nesvētais, bezdievīgais Israēla valdnieks, kam pienākusi sava diena, kurā noziegumi beidzās,
And you, O profane and wicked prince of Israel, the day has come for your final punishment.’
26 Tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: liec nost galvas glītumu un ņem zemē kroni, jo tas nepaliks, kā tas bija: zemais tiks paaugstināts un augstais pazemots.
This is what the Lord GOD says: ‘Remove the turban, and take off the crown. Things will not remain as they are: Exalt the lowly and bring low the exalted.
27 Es to likšu postā, postā, postā, un šī nebūs, līdz kamēr nāk, kam tā tiesa pieder, - tam Es to došu.
A ruin, a ruin, I will make it a ruin! And it will not be restored until the arrival of Him to whom it belongs, to whom I have assigned the right of judgment.’
28 Un tu, cilvēka bērns, sludini un saki: tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs par Amona bērniem un par viņu nievāšanu un saki: zobens, zobens izvilkts, lai kauj, trīts, lai spīd un zib.
Now prophesy, son of man, and declare that this is what the Lord GOD says concerning the Ammonites and their contempt: ‘A sword! A sword is drawn for slaughter, polished to consume, to flash like lightning—
29 Kamēr tev aplamas parādīšanas rāda, kamēr tev melus sludina, tas tevi liks pie nokauto nesvēto kakliem, kuru diena nāk gala nozieguma laikā.
while they offer false visions for you and lying divinations about you— to be placed on the necks of the wicked who are slain, whose day has come, the time of their final punishment.
30 Bāz zobenu makstīs! Es tevi sodīšu tai vietā, kur tu radīts, tai zemē, kur tu dzimis.
Return the sword to its sheath! In the place where you were created, in the land of your origin, I will judge you.
31 Un Es izgāzīšu pār tevi Savu dusmību, Es uzpūtīšu pret tevi Savas bardzības uguni, un tevi nodošu nežēlīgu cilvēku, niknu postītāju rokā.
I will pour out My anger upon you; I will breathe the fire of My fury against you; I will hand you over to brutal men, skilled in destruction.
32 Tu būsi ugunij par barību, tavas asinis tecēs pašā tavā zemē, un tevi vairs nepieminēs; jo Es Tas Kungs to esmu runājis.
You will be fuel for the fire. Your blood will stain your own land. You will not be remembered, for I, the LORD, have spoken.’”
