< Ecechiela 29 >
1 Desmitā gadā, desmitā mēnesī, divpadsmitā mēneša dienā, Tā Kunga vārds uz mani notika sacīdams:
In the tenth year, in the tenth month, on the twelfth day of the month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 Cilvēka bērns, griez savu vaigu pret Faraonu, Ēģiptes ķēniņu, un sludini pret viņu un pret visu Ēģipti.
"Son of man, set your face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him and against all Egypt.
3 Runā un saki: tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: Es celšos pret tevi, Faraonu, Ēģiptes ķēniņ, tu lielais jūras zvērs, kas savu upju vidū guļ un saka: mana upe ir mana, un to es sev esmu taisījis.
Speak and say, 'Thus says the LORD: "Look, I am against you, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great monster that lies in the midst of his rivers, that has said, 'My river is my own, and I have made it for myself.'
4 Bet Es likšu makšķeri tavā pažoklī, un likšu tavu upju zivīm pielipt pie tavām zvīņām, un izvilkšu no tām upēm tevi un visas tavu upju zivis, kas līp pie tavām zvīņām.
I will put hooks in your jaws, and I will make the fish of your rivers stick to your scales; and I will bring you up out of the midst of your rivers, with all the fish of your rivers which stick to your scales.
5 Un Es tevi nometīšu tuksnesī, tevi, un visas tavu upju zivis; tu kritīsi uz lauku, tu netapsi sakrāts nedz salasīts; zvēriem virs zemes un putniem apakš debess Es tevi dodu par barību.
I'll cast you forth into the wilderness, you and all the fish of your rivers. You'll fall on the open field. You won't be brought together, nor gathered. I have given you for food to the animals of the earth and to the birds of the sky.
6 Un visi Ēģiptes iedzīvotāji samanīs, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs, tāpēc ka tie bijuši niedru stobrs Israēla namam.
All the inhabitants of Egypt will know that I am the LORD, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
7 Kad tie tevi satvēra rokā, tad tu lūzi un tiem pāršķēli sānus, un kad tie uz tevi atspiedās, tad tu salūzi un darīji tiem gurnus slābanus.
When they took hold of you with their hand, you splintered and dislocated their shoulders; and when they leaned on you, you shattered and caused their legs to be unsteady."
8 Tāpēc tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: redzi, Es vedīšu pār tevi zobenu un no tevis izdeldēšu cilvēkus un lopus.
"'Therefore thus says the LORD: "Look, I will bring a sword on you, and will cut off man and animal from you.
9 Un Ēģiptes zeme taps postā un par tuksnesi, un tie samanīs, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs, tāpēc ka viņš sacījis: tā upe ir mana, es to esmu darījis.
The land of Egypt shall be a desolation and a waste; and they shall know that I am the LORD. Because he has said, 'The river is mine, and I have made it;'
10 Tad nu redzi, Es celšos pret tevi un pret tavām upēm, un darīšu Ēģiptes zemi par tukšu posta vietu, no Migdalas līdz Ziēnei un līdz Moru zemes robežām.
therefore, look, I am against you, and against your rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt an utter waste and desolation, from the tower of Syene even to the border of Ethiopia.
11 Pa viņu cilvēka kāja nestaigās, un arī lopa kāja pa viņu neies un tur nedzīvos caurus četrdesmit gadus.
No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of animal shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.
12 Jo Es Ēģiptes zemi darīšu par posta vietu starp postītām zemēm, un viņas pilsētas būs postā starp postītām pilsētām četrdesmit gadus, un Es ēģiptiešus izkaisīšu starp tautām un tos izputināšu pa valstīm.
I will make the land of Egypt a desolation in the midst of the countries that are desolate; and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be a desolation forty years; and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries."
13 Tomēr tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: kad četrdesmit gadi būs pagalam, tad Es sapulcināšu ēģiptiešus no tām tautām, kurp tie bija izkaisīti.
"'For thus says the LORD: "At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the peoples where they were scattered;
14 Un Es pārvedīšu ēģiptiešus no cietuma un tos atkal atvedīšu Patrus zemē, viņu dzimtā zemē, un tur tie būs viena maza valsts.
and I will bring back the captivity of Egypt, and will cause them to return into the land of Pathros, into the land of their birth; and they shall be there a base kingdom.
15 Un tā būs mazāka nekā citas valstis un necelsies vairs pār tām tautām, jo Es viņus mazināšu, lai nevalda vairs pār tautām.
It shall be the base of the kingdoms; neither shall it any more lift itself up above the nations: and I will diminish them, that they shall no more rule over the nations.
16 Un Israēla namam tie vairs nebūs par atspaidu, atgādinādami noziegumu, kad pēc viņiem skatās; bet tie samanīs, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs Dievs.
It shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, bringing iniquity to memory, when they turn to look after them: and they shall know that I am the LORD."'"
17 Un notikās divdesmit septītā gadā, pirmā mēnesī, pirmā mēneša dienā, tad Tā Kunga vārds uz mani notika sacīdams:
It came to pass in the seven and twentieth year, in the first month, in the first day of the month, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
18 Cilvēka bērns! Nebukadnecars, Bābeles ķēniņš, savam karaspēkam licis grūtu darbu darīt pret Tiru; visas galvas ir plikas un visi pleci noberzti; tomēr nedz viņam nedz viņa karaspēkam nekāda alga nav tikusi Tirus dēļ, par to grūto darbu, kas viņam pret to bijis.
"Son of man, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyre: every head was made bald, and every shoulder was worn; yet had he no wages, nor his army, from Tyre, for the service that he had served against it.
19 Tāpēc tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: Nebukadnecaram, Bābeles ķēniņam, Es došu Ēģiptes zemi, un viņš aizvedīs visu viņas pulku un laupīs viņas laupījumu un mantos viņas mantu, un tā būs tā alga viņa karaspēkam.
Therefore thus says the LORD: 'Look, I will give the land of Egypt to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and he shall carry off her multitude, and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be the wages for his army.
20 Par darba algu Es tam atdošu Ēģiptes zemi, par to darbu, ko tie Man darījuši, saka Tas Kungs Dievs.
I have given him the land of Egypt as his recompense for which he served, because they worked for me,' says the LORD.
21 Tai dienā Es likšu izplaukt Israēla nama ragam, un atdarīšu tev muti viņu vidū; un tie samanīs, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs.
'In that day will I cause a horn to bud forth to the house of Israel, and I will give you the opening of the mouth in their midst; and they shall know that I am the LORD.'"
