Ecechiela 33
1 Un Tā Kunga vārds uz mani notika sacīdams:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 Cilvēka bērns, runā uz savu ļaužu bērniem un saki uz tiem: kad Es zobenu vedu pār kādu zemi, un tās zemes ļaudis ņem vienu vīru no savām robežām un to ieceļ sev par sargu,
Son of man, give a word to the children of your people, and say to them, When I make the sword come on a land, if the people of the land take a man from among their number and make him their watchman:
3 Un viņš redz zobenu pār to zemi nākam un pūš ar bazūni un pamāca tos ļaudis,
If, when he sees the sword coming on the land, by sounding the horn he gives the people news of their danger;
4 Un ja kas to bazūnes skaņu dzirdēt dzird un neļaujas pamācīties, un zobens nāk un ņem viņu nost, - šī asinis lai ir uz viņa galvas.
Then anyone who, hearing the sound of the horn, does not take note of it, will himself be responsible for his death, if the sword comes and takes him away.
5 Viņš dzirdēja bazūnes skaņu, bet nelikās pamācīties, viņa asinis ir uz viņa. Bet kas ļaujas pamācīties, tas izglābs savu dvēseli.
On hearing the sound of the horn, he did not take note; his blood will be on him; for if he had taken note his life would have been safe.
6 Bet kad tas sargs redz zobenu nākam un nepūš ar bazūni, tā ka tie ļaudis netiek pamācīti, un zobens nāk un ņem no tiem kādu dvēseli nost: tas gan savā noziegumā ir noņemts, bet viņa asinis Es prasīšu no tā sarga rokas.
But if the watchman sees the sword coming, and does not give a note on the horn, and the people have no word of the danger, and the sword comes and takes any person from among them; he will be taken away in his sin, but I will make the watchman responsible for his blood.
7 Tu tad cilvēka bērns, Es tevi esmu licis par sargu Israēla namam, ka tev nu no Manas mutes to vārdu būs klausīt un tos pamācīt no Manas puses.
So you, son of man, I have made you a watchman for the children of Israel; and you are to give ear to the word of my mouth and give them news from me of their danger.
8 Kad Es uz bezdievīgo saku. bezdievīgais, tu mirdams mirsi, un tu nemāci bezdievīgo, lai atgriežas no sava ļaunā ceļa, tad bezdievīgais nomirs savā noziegumā, bet viņa asinis Es prasīšu no tavas rokas.
When I say to the evil-doer, Death will certainly overtake you; and you say nothing to make clear to the evil-doer the danger of his way; death will overtake that evil man in his evil-doing, but I will make you responsible for his blood.
9 Bet ja tu bezdievīgo pamāci, lai atgriežas no sava ceļa, un viņš neatgriežas no sava ceļa, tad viņš mirs savā noziegumā, bet tu savu dvēseli esi izglābis.
But if you make clear to the evil-doer the danger of his way for the purpose of turning him from it, and he is not turned from his way, death will overtake him in his evil-doing, but your life will be safe.
10 Tādēļ, cilvēka bērns, saki uz Israēla namu: jūs runājiet tā un sakāt: mūsu pārkāpumi un mūsu grēki ir uz mums, un mēs iekš tiem ejam bojā, kā tad mēs varam dzīvot?
And you, son of man, say to the children of Israel, You say, Our wrongdoing and our sins are on us and we are wasting away in them; how then may we have life?
11 Saki uz tiem: tik tiešām kā Es dzīvoju, saka Tas Kungs Dievs, Man nepatīk bezdievīgā nāve, bet ka bezdievīgais atgriežas no sava ceļa un dzīvo. Atgriežaties, atgriežaties no saviem ļauniem ceļiem. Jo kāpēc jūs gribat mirt, jūs no Israēla nama?
Say to them, By my life, says the Lord, I have no pleasure in the death of the evil-doer; it is more pleasing to me if he is turned from his way and has life: be turned, be turned from your evil ways; why are you looking for death, O children of Israel?
12 Tu tad, cilvēka bērns, saki uz savu ļaužu bērniem: taisno taisnība neizglābs viņa pārkāpšanas dienā, un bezdievīgais savas bezdievības dēļ neies bojā, kad tas atgriežas no savas bezdievības. Un pats taisnais nevar dzīvot caur savu taisnību, kad viņš apgrēkojās.
And you, son of man, say to the children of your people, The righteousness of the upright man will not make him safe in the day when he does wrong; and the evil-doing of the evil man will not be the cause of his fall in the day when he is turned from his evil-doing; and the upright man will not have life because of his righteousness in the day when he does evil.
13 Kad Es uz taisno saku, ka tas dzīvot dzīvos, un tas paļaujas uz savu taisnību un dara nepareizi, tad visa viņa taisnība netaps pieminēta, bet viņš mirs tai netaisnībā, ko viņš dara.
When I say to the upright that life will certainly be his; if he puts his faith in his righteousness and does evil, not one of his upright acts will be kept in memory; but in the evil he has done, death will overtake him.
14 Un kad Es uz bezdievīgo saku: tu mirdams mirsi, un tas atgriežas no saviem grēkiem un dara tiesu un taisnību,
And when I say to the evil-doer, Death will certainly be your fate; if he is turned from his sin and does what is ordered and right;
15 Tā ka bezdievīgais ķīlu atdod, laupījumu maksā un staigā dzīvības likumos, nevienam nedarīdams nepareizi, - tad tas dzīvot dzīvos un nemirs.
If the evil-doer lets one who is in his debt have back what is his, and gives back what he had taken by force, and is guided by the rules of life, doing no evil; life will certainly be his, death will not overtake him.
16 Visi viņa grēki, ko viņš darījis, viņam netaps pieminēti; viņš darījis tiesu un taisnību, dzīvot viņš dzīvos.
Not one of the sins which he has done will be kept in mind against him: he has done what is ordered and right, life will certainly be his.
17 Tomēr tavu ļaužu bērni saka: Tā Kunga ceļš nav taisns! Bet viņu ceļš nav taisns.
But the children of your people say, The way of the Lord is not equal: when it is they whose way is not equal.
18 Kad taisnais nogriežas no savas taisnības un dara nepareizi, tad viņš caur to mirs.
When the upright man, turning away from his righteousness, does evil, death will overtake him in it.
19 Un kad bezdievīgais nogriežas no savas bezdievības un dara tiesu un taisnību, tad viņš caur to dzīvos.
And when the evil man, turning away from his evil-doing, does what is ordered and right, he will get life by it.
20 Bet jūs sakāt: Tā Kunga ceļš nav pareizs. Es jūs tiesāšu, ikvienu pēc viņa ceļiem, ak Israēla nams! -
And still you say, The way of the Lord is not equal. O children of Israel, I will be your judge, giving to everyone the reward of his ways.
21 Un notikās divpadsmitā gadā pēc mūsu aizvešanas, desmitā mēnesī, piektā mēneša dienā, tad viens pie manis atnāca, kas no Jeruzālemes bija izglābies, un sacīja: tā pilsēta ir izkauta.
Now in the twelfth year after we had been taken away prisoners, in the tenth month, on the fifth day of the month, one who had got away in flight from Jerusalem came to me, saying, The town has been taken.
22 Bet Tā Kunga roka vakarā, iepriekš tā izglābtā atnākšanas, bija nākusi pār mani un atvērusi manu muti, pirms šis rītā pie manis nāca, un mana mute palika atvērta, un es nebiju vairs mēms.
Now the hand of the Lord had been on me in the evening, before the man who had got away came to me; and he made my mouth open, ready for his coming to me in the morning; and my mouth was open and I was no longer without voice.
23 Tad Tā Kunga vārds uz mani notika sacīdams:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
24 Cilvēka bērns! Tie, kas viņās posta vietās dzīvo Israēla zemē, runā un saka: Ābrahāms bija viens vienīgs un iemantoja to zemi, bet mūsu ir daudzi, tā zeme mums ir dota par mantību.
Son of man, those who are living in these waste places in the land of Israel say, Abraham was but one, and he had land for his heritage: but we are a great number; the land is given to us for our heritage.
25 Tādēļ saki uz tiem: tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: jūs ēdat asinis un paceļat savas acis uz saviem elkiem un izlejat asinis, - un jūs to zemi gribat paturēt par mantību?
For this cause say to them, This is what the Lord has said: You take your meat with the blood, your eyes are lifted up to your images, and you are takers of life: are you to have the land for your heritage?
26 Jūs stāvat uz savu zobenu, jūs darāt negantību un apgānāt cits cita sievu, un jūs to zemi gribat paturēt par mantību?
You put your faith in your swords, you do disgusting things, everyone takes his neighbour's wife: are you to have the land for your heritage?
27 Tā tev uz viņiem būs sacīt: tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: tik tiešām kā Es dzīvoju, tie, kas tais posta vietās dzīvo, kritīs caur zobenu, un to, kas uz lauka, Es nodošu zvēriem par barību, un tie, kas stiprās vietās un alās, mirs caur mēri.
This is what you are to say to them: The Lord has said, By my life, truly, those who are in the waste places will be put to the sword, and him who is in the open field I will give to the beasts for their food, and those who are in the strong places and in holes in the rocks will come to their death by disease.
28 Un to zemi Es darīšu par posta vietu un tuksnesi, un viņas lepnais stiprums beigsies, un Israēla kalni būs postā, ka tur neviens pāri neies.
And I will make the land a waste and a cause of wonder, and the pride of her strength will come to an end; and the mountains of Israel will be made waste so that no one will go through.
29 Tad tie samanīs, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs, kad Es to zemi būšu darījis par posta vietu un par tuksnesi visas viņu negantības dēļ, ko tie darījuši.
Then they will be certain that I am the Lord, when I have made the land a waste and a cause of wonder, because of all the disgusting things which they have done,
30 Un tu, cilvēka bērns, tavu ļaužu bērni runā pret tevi istabās un nama durvīs, un viens runā ar otru, ikviens ar savu brāli, un saka: nāciet jel, dzirdēsim, kas tas tāds vārds, kas no Tā Kunga nāk.
And as for you, son of man, the children of your people are talking together about you by the walls and in the doorways of the houses, saying to one another, Come now, give ear to the word which comes from the Lord.
31 Un tie nāks pie tevis, tā kā ļaudis mēdz nākt, un sēž tavā priekšā kā Mani ļaudis un klausa tavus vārdus, bet tos nedara; jo tie ir mīlīgi ar savu muti, bet viņu sirds dzenās mantai pakaļ.
And they come to you as my people come, and are seated before you as my people, hearing your words but doing them not: for deceit is in their mouth and their heart goes after profit for themselves.
32 Un redzi! Tu tiem esi kā jauka dziesmiņa, kā skaista balss, kas labi skan, tādēļ tie klausa tavus vārdus, bet tos nedara.
And truly you are to them like a love song by one who has a very pleasing voice and is an expert player on an instrument: for they give ear to your words but do them not.
33 Bet kad nāks, - un redzi, nāk! - Tad tie samanīs, ka pravietis ir bijis viņu vidū.
And when this comes about (see, it is coming), then it will be clear to them that a prophet has been among them.
