< 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 Yahweh 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, the king of Egypt; prophesy against him and against all of 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.
Declare and say, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Behold! I am against you, Pharaoh, king of Egypt. You, the great sea monster that lurks in the midst of the river, that says, “My river is my own. 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.
For I will place hooks in your jaw, and the fish of your Nile will cling to your scales; I will lift you up from the middle of your river along with all the fish of the river that cling 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 will throw you down into the wilderness, you and all the fish from your river. You will fall on the open field; you will not be gathered nor lifted up. I will give you as food to the living things of the earth and to the birds of the heavens.
6 Un visi Ēģiptes iedzīvotāji samanīs, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs, tāpēc ka tie bijuši niedru stobrs Israēla namam.
Then all the inhabitants of Egypt will know that I am Yahweh, because they have been a reed stalk 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 in their hand, you broke and tore open their shoulder; and when they leaned on you, you were broken, and you 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 the Lord Yahweh says this: Behold! I will bring a sword against you. I will cut off both man and beast 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.
So the land of Egypt will become desolate and a ruin. Then they will know that I am Yahweh, because the sea monster had said, “The river is mine, for 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, behold! I am against you and against your river, so I will give the land of Egypt over to desolation and waste, and you will become a wasteland from the Migdol to Syene and the borders of Cush.
11 Pa viņu cilvēka kāja nestaigās, un arī lopa kāja pa viņu neies un tur nedzīvos caurus četrdesmit gadus.
No man's foot will pass through it, and no wild animal's foot will pass through it. It will not be inhabited for 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.
For I will make the land of Egypt a desolation in the midst of uninhabited lands, and its cities in the midst of wasted cities will become a desolation for forty years; then I will scatter Egypt among the nations, and I will disperse them though the lands.
13 Tomēr tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: kad četrdesmit gadi būs pagalam, tad Es sapulcināšu ēģiptiešus no tām tautām, kurp tie bija izkaisīti.
For the Lord Yahweh says this: At the end of forty years I will gather Egypt from the peoples among whom 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.
I will restore the fortunes of Egypt and bring them back to the region of Pathros, to the land of their origin. Then they will be a lowly kingdom there.
15 Un tā būs mazāka nekā citas valstis un necelsies vairs pār tām tautām, jo Es viņus mazināšu, lai nevalda vairs pār tautām.
It will be the lowliest of the kingdoms, and it will not be lifted up any more among the nations. I will diminish them so they will no longer rule over 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.
The Egyptians will no longer be a reason for confidence for the house of Israel. Instead, they will be a reminder of the iniquity that Israel committed when they turned to Egypt for help. Then they will know that I am the Lord Yahweh.'”
17 Un notikās divdesmit septītā gadā, pirmā mēnesī, pirmā mēneša dienā, tad Tā Kunga vārds uz mani notika sacīdams:
Then it came about in the twenty-seventh year on the first of the first month, that the word of Yahweh 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 the king of Babylon stationed his army to do hard work against Tyre. Every head was rubbed until it was made bald, and every shoulder was made raw. Yet he and his army received no payment from Tyre for the hard work that he carried out 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 the Lord Yahweh says this, 'Behold! I am giving the land of Egypt to Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, and he will take away its wealth, plunder its possessions, and carry off all he finds there; that will be his army's wages.
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 the wages for the work they did for me—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.
21 Tai dienā Es likšu izplaukt Israēla nama ragam, un atdarīšu tev muti viņu vidū; un tie samanīs, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs.
On that day I will make a horn sprout up for the house of Israel, and I make you speak in their midst, so that they will know that I am Yahweh.'”
