Ecechiela 21
1 Un Tā Kunga vārds uz mani notika sacīdams:
A message from 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, face towards Jerusalem and condemn their places of worship. Prophesy against the people living in 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 them that this is what the Lord says: Watch out, because I'm going to attack you! I'm going to take out my sword and destroy you, both the good and the bad.
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'm going to destroy both the good and the bad, I will attack everyone from the north to the south.
5 Un visa miesa atzīs, ka Es, Tas Kungs, esmu izvilcis Savu zobenu no makstīm; tas atkal vairs netaps iebāzts.
Then the whole world will know that I, the Lord, have taken out my sword, and won't put it back again.
6 Bet tu, ak cilvēka bērns, nopūties! Ar satriektiem gurniem un rūgtās skumjās nopūties priekš viņu acīm.
You, son of man, you are to groan. Groan as if you're broken up inside, showing terrible sadness while they watch you.
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.
When they ask, ‘What are you groaning for?’ you are to tell them, ‘Because of the news that's coming. All of you will lose your courage and you'll be paralyzed with fear. All of you will be weak with worry—you won't be able to stand up!’ Watch out, because it's coming! It's going to happen! declares the Lord God.”
8 Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz mani sacīdams:
Another message from 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! Tell them this is what the Lord says: There's a sword, a sword that's being 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's sharpened for killing and polished so it will flash like lightning! (Are we to be happy, saying, ‘The scepter of my son despises every other 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 being polished right now, ready to be used. It's sharp and polished, ready to be handed over to the killer.
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.
Weep and wail, son of man, and slap your thigh in grief, for the sword is going to be used to attack my people, to attack all the leaders of Israel! They will be thrown away, killed by the sword along with my people.
13 Tiešām, tas zobens ir pārbaudīts; un kas būs, kad tas scepteris, kas nicina, iznīks? saka Tas Kungs Dievs.
They will be tested. What if the scepter that despises others doesn't continue? declares the Lord God.
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 son of man, prophesy and clap your hands. The sword will attack twice, and then a third time. It is a sword of death, killing many people by coming at them from every direction.
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!
I have placed a sword at all the gates of their city so that they may lose their courage, and many may fall. Oh no! It's made to flash like lightning and used to kill.
16 Cērt spēcīgi, sit pa labo roku, griezies, sit pa kreiso roku, kurp tavs asmens griežas.
Slash right and left, whichever way you're facing.
17 Arī Es pats sasitīšu Savas rokas un izdarīšu Savu bardzību; Es, Tas Kungs, to esmu runājis.
I will also clap my hands, and then my anger will be over. I, the Lord, have spoken.”
18 Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz mani sacīdams:
Another message from 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.
“Son of man, mark the two roads that the king of Babylon's army could take, beginning from the same country. Make a signpost where the road forks, leading to two different cities.
20 Taisi ceļu, pa ko tas zobens lai nāk pret Amona bērnu Rabu un (otru) pret Jūdu uz stipro Jeruzālemes pilsētu.
Have one sign point down the road for an attack on the Ammonite city of Rabbah, and another to attack Judah and the fortified city of 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.
The king of Babylon is standing at the fork in the road where the two roads meet looking for a prophetic sign: he casts lots using arrows, he asks advice from idols, and he examines the liver of sacrificial animals.
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.
He holds the sign for Jerusalem in his right hand. This is where he is going to set up battering rams, to give the command to attack, to shout the war-cry. There he will order the battering rams to smash the gates, set up an attack ramp, and build 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.
To those who have sworn to be loyal to Nebuchadnezzar this will look like a false sign, but it will reveal their guilt and they will be taken prisoner.
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.
So this is what the Lord God says: Because you have revealed your guilt and demonstrated your rebellion, showing your sins in everything you've done, now that you've made all this clear, you will be taken prisoner.
25 Un tu, nesvētais, bezdievīgais Israēla valdnieks, kam pienākusi sava diena, kurā noziegumi beidzās,
As for you, you unclean, wicked prince of Israel, the time has come to complete your 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: Take off your turban, and your crown. Things won't continue as they were. Give power to the common people and bring down the powerful!
27 Es to likšu postā, postā, postā, un šī nebūs, līdz kamēr nāk, kam tā tiesa pieder, - tam Es to došu.
I'm going to destroy everything, make it all a ruin! It won't be restored until its owner arrives, the one I've given the authority to judge.
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.
Prophesy, son of man, and announce that this is what the Lord God says about the Ammonites and their insults: A sword! A sword is ready for killing, polished to destroy, 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.
even as your prophets give you false visions and prophecies that are lies. This sword will cut the necks of the wicked, killing them—those whose day has come for their punishment to be completed.
30 Bāz zobenu makstīs! Es tevi sodīšu tai vietā, kur tu radīts, tai zemē, kur tu dzimis.
Sword, go back to where you came from! I'm going to judge you right where you were created, in your homeland.
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 deal with you in my anger; I will breathe my fire of anger on you; I will hand you over to cruel men who are experts 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 burned up like firewood. Your blood will be shed where you live. You will be forgotten, for I, the Lord, have spoken.”
