Ecechiela 22
1 Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz mani sacīdams:
Moreover the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
2 Tad nu, ak cilvēka bērns, vai gribi tiesāt, vai gribi tiesāt to asins pilsētu? Tad rādi viņai visas viņas negantības.
“You, son of man, will you judge? Will you judge the bloody city? Then cause her to know all her abominations.
3 Un saki: tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: ak pilsēta, kas asinis izlej savā vidū, lai viņas laiks nāk, un kas sev taisa elkus un apgānās.
You shall say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “A city that sheds blood within herself, that her time may come, and that makes idols against herself to defile her!
4 Caur tām asinīm, ko izlējusi, tu esi noziegusies, un ar saviem elkiem, ko taisījusi, tu esi sagānījusies, un tavām dienām esi likusi tuvu nākt, un esi nākusi savos gados. Tādēļ Es tevi esmu nodevis pagāniem par nievāšanu un visām zemēm par apsmieklu.
You have become guilty in your blood that you have shed, and are defiled in your idols which you have made! You have caused your days to draw near, and have come to the end of your years. Therefore I have made you a reproach to the nations, and a mocking to all the countries.
5 Kas tuvu un kas tālu no tevis, tie tevi apsmies, tevi, kam vārds sagānīts un kas nekārtības pilna.
Those who are near and those who are far from you will mock you, you infamous one, full of tumult.
6 Redzi, Israēla valdnieki ikviens cik spēdams izlej asinis tavā vidū.
“‘“Behold, the princes of Israel, everyone according to his power, have been in you to shed blood.
7 Tēvu un māti tie pie tevis nicina, svešiniekam tie dara varas darbu tavā vidū, bāriņus un atraitnes tie apspiež pie tevis.
In you have they treated father and mother with contempt. Amongst you they have oppressed the foreigner. In you they have wronged the fatherless and the widow.
8 Manus svētumus tu nicini, un Manas svētās dienas tu sagāni.
You have despised my holy things, and have profaned my Sabbaths.
9 Mēlneši ir pie tevis, kas asinis izlej; tie ēd tavā vidū uz (elku)kalniem, dara bezkaunību tavā vidū.
Slanderous men have been in you to shed blood. In you they have eaten on the mountains. They have committed lewdness amongst you.
10 Tie atsedz pie tevis tēva kaunumu, un pieguļ pie tevis sārņiem nešķīstas sievas.
In you have they uncovered their fathers’ nakedness. In you have they humbled her who was unclean in her impurity.
11 Cits ar sava tuvāka sievu dara negantību, cits bezkaunīgi apgāna savu vedeklu, atkal cits atzīst savu māsu, sava tēva meitu, tavā vidū.
One has committed abomination with his neighbour’s wife, and another has lewdly defiled his daughter-in-law. Another in you has humbled his sister, his father’s daughter.
12 Tie ņem pie tevis dāvanas, izliet asinis; tu piedzen augļus un plēs pagaidus, un esi plēsīga pie sava tuvākā ar varasdarbu, bet Mani tu esi aizmirsusi, saka Tas Kungs Dievs.
In you have they taken bribes to shed blood. You have taken interest and increase, and you have greedily gained of your neighbours by oppression, and have forgotten me,” says the Lord GOD.
13 Redzi, tad Es sasitu savas rokas par to mantu, ko tu plēsi, un par tām asinīm, kas tavā vidū izlietas.
“‘“Behold, therefore I have struck my hand at your dishonest gain which you have made, and at the blood which has been shed within you.
14 Vai tava sirds pastāvēs, vai tavas rokas būs stipras tanīs dienās, kad Es ar tevi tiesāšos? Es Tas Kungs to esmu runājis un to darīšu.
Can your heart endure, or can your hands be strong, in the days that I will deal with you? I, the LORD, have spoken it, and will do it.
15 Un Es tevi izkaisīšu starp tautām un tevi izklīdināšu pa valstīm un darīšu galu tavai nešķīstībai tavā vidū.
I will scatter you amongst the nations, and disperse you through the countries. I will purge your filthiness out of you.
16 Un tu būsi nesvēta caur sevi pašu priekš pagānu acīm un samanīsi, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs.
You will be profaned in yourself in the sight of the nations. Then you will know that I am the LORD.”’”
17 Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz mani sacīdams:
The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
18 Cilvēka bērns! Israēla nams Man ir palicis par sārņiem, tie visi ir varš un alva un dzelzs un svins ceplī, tie ir palikuši par sudraba sārņiem.
“Son of man, the house of Israel has become dross to me. All of them are bronze, tin, iron, and lead in the middle of the furnace. They are the dross of silver.
19 Tādēļ tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: Tāpēc ka jūs visi esat palikuši par sārņiem, tad redzi, Es jūs sapulcināšu Jeruzālemes vidū.
Therefore the Lord GOD says: ‘Because you have all become dross, therefore, behold, I will gather you into the middle of Jerusalem.
20 Tā kā sudrabu un varu un dzelzi un svinu un alvu kopā liek ceplī, un uguni uzpūš apakšā, lai kausē, tā Es jūs sapulcināšu Savā dusmībā un bardzībā, un jūs ielikšu un kausēšu.
As they gather silver, bronze, iron, lead, and tin into the middle of the furnace, to blow the fire on it, to melt it, so I will gather you in my anger and in my wrath, and I will lay you there and melt you.
21 Tiešām, Es jūs sapulcināšu un uzpūtīšu pret jums Savas dusmības uguni, ka jūs tur iekšā topat kausēti.
Yes, I will gather you, and blow on you with the fire of my wrath, and you will be melted in the middle of it.
22 Tā kā sudrabs ceplī top kausēts, tāpat jūs tur tapsiet kausēti, un jūs samanīsiet, ka Es, Tas Kungs, Savu bardzību esmu izlējis pār jums.
As silver is melted in the middle of the furnace, so you will be melted in the middle of it; and you will know that I, the LORD, have poured out my wrath on you.’”
23 Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz mani sacīdams:
The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
24 Cilvēka bērns, saki uz to: tu esi zeme, kas nav šķīstīta, kur nelīst dusmības dienā.
“Son of man, tell her, ‘You are a land that is not cleansed nor rained on in the day of indignation.’
25 Viņas pravieši cēluši dumpi viņas vidū; tā kā rūcošs lauva, kad tas laupījumu laupa, tā tie ēd dvēseles, tie plēš naudu un mantu, tie dara daudz atraitņu viņas vidū.
There is a conspiracy of her prophets within it, like a roaring lion ravening the prey. They have devoured souls. They take treasure and precious things. They have made many widows within it.
26 Viņas priesteri neganti pārkāpj manu bauslību un sagāna manus svētumus, tie neizšķir svētu un nesvētu un nemāca izšķirt, kas šķīsts un kas nešķīsts, tie apsedz savas acis priekš manām, svētām dienām, un es viņu starpā topu sagānīts.
Her priests have done violence to my law and have profaned my holy things. They have made no distinction between the holy and the common, neither have they caused men to discern between the unclean and the clean, and have hidden their eyes from my Sabbaths. So I am profaned amongst them.
27 Viņas virsnieki ir viņas vidū kā vilki, kas laupa laupījumu, izlej asinis, samaitā dvēseles, mantas kārības dēļ.
Her princes within it are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood and to destroy souls, that they may get dishonest gain.
28 Un viņas pravieši tos apmet ar nelīpamiem kaļķiem un redz aplamas parādīšanas un sludina tiem melus un saka: tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs; un tomēr Tas Kungs nav runājis.
Her prophets have plastered for them with whitewash, seeing false visions, and divining lies to them, saying, ‘The Lord GOD says,’ when the LORD has not spoken.
29 Tie ļaudis tai zemē dara varas darbu un laupīt laupa, un nabagu un bēdīgu tie plēš un svešinieku tie nospaida bez tiesas.
The people of the land have used oppression and exercised robbery. Yes, they have troubled the poor and needy, and have oppressed the foreigner wrongfully.
30 Tad Es meklēju kādu vīru no tiem, kas atkal sataisītu sētu un stātos plaisumā, manā priekšā aizstāvēt to zemi, ka Es to nemaitātu, bet Es neatradu neviena.
“I sought for a man amongst them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I would not destroy it; but I found no one.
31 Tāpēc Es pār tiem esmu izlējis Savu bardzību, ar Savas dusmības uguni Es tiem esmu galu darījis, viņu grēkus Es tiem esmu metis uz viņu galvu, saka Tas Kungs Dievs.
Therefore I have poured out my indignation on them. I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath. I have brought their own way on their heads,” says the Lord GOD.
