< 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, speak to the children of your people, and you shall say to them, On whatever land I shall bring a sword, and the people of the land take one man of them, and set him for their watchman:
3 Un viņš redz zobenu pār to zemi nākam un pūš ar bazūni un pamāca tos ļaudis,
and he shall see the sword coming upon the land, and blow the trumpet, and sound an alarm to the people;
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.
and he that hears the sound of the trumpet shall hear [indeed], and [yet] not take heed, and the sword shall come upon him, and overtake him, his blood shall be upon his [own] head.
5 Viņš dzirdēja bazūnes skaņu, bet nelikās pamācīties, viņa asinis ir uz viņa. Bet kas ļaujas pamācīties, tas izglābs savu dvēseli.
Because he heard the sound of the trumpet, and took no heed, his blood shall be upon him: but the other, because he took heed, has delivered his soul.
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 see the sword coming, and do not sound the trumpet, and the people do not watch; and the sword come, and take a soul from amongst them, that [soul] is taken because of its iniquity; but the blood [thereof] will I require at the watchman's hand.
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.
And you, son of man, I have set you [as] a watchman to the house of Israel, and you shall hear a word from my mouth.
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 sinner, You shall surely die; [if] you speak not to warn the wicked from his way, the wicked himself shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at your hand.
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 forewarn the wicked of his way to turn from it, and he turn not from his way, he shall die in his ungodliness; but you have delivered your own soul.
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 house of Israel; Thus have you spoken, saying, Our errors, and our iniquities weigh upon us, and we pine away in them, and how then shall we live?
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, Thus says the Lord; [As] I live, I desire not the death of the ungodly, as that the ungodly should turn from his way and live: turn you heartily from your way; for why will you die, O house 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.
Say to the children of your people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him, in the day wherein he errs: and the iniquity of the ungodly shall not harm him, in the day wherein he turns from his iniquity, but the righteous [erring] shall not be able to deliver himself.
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 righteous, [You shall live; and] he trusts in his righteousness, and shall commit iniquity, none of his righteousnesses shall be remembered; in his unrighteousness which he has wrought, in it shall he die.
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 ungodly, You shall surely die; and he shall turn from his sin, and do judgement and justice,
15 Tā ka bezdievīgais ķīlu atdod, laupījumu maksā un staigā dzīvības likumos, nevienam nedarīdams nepareizi, - tad tas dzīvot dzīvos un nemirs.
and return the pledge, and repay that which he has robbed, [and] walk in the ordinances of life, so as to do no wrong; he shall surely live, and shall not die.
16 Visi viņa grēki, ko viņš darījis, viņam netaps pieminēti; viņš darījis tiesu un taisnību, dzīvot viņš dzīvos.
None of his sins which he has committed shall be remembered: because he has wrought judgement and righteousness; by them shall he live.
17 Tomēr tavu ļaužu bērni saka: Tā Kunga ceļš nav taisns! Bet viņu ceļš nav taisns.
Yet the children of your people will say, The way of the Lord is not straight: whereas this their way is not straight.
18 Kad taisnais nogriežas no savas taisnības un dara nepareizi, tad viņš caur to mirs.
When the righteous turns away from his righteousness, and shall commit iniquities, then shall he die in them.
19 Un kad bezdievīgais nogriežas no savas bezdievības un dara tiesu un taisnību, tad viņš caur to dzīvos.
And when the sinner turns from his iniquity, and shall do judgement and righteousness, he shall live by them.
20 Bet jūs sakāt: Tā Kunga ceļš nav pareizs. Es jūs tiesāšu, ikvienu pēc viņa ceļiem, ak Israēla nams! -
And this is that which you said, The way of the Lord is [not] straight. I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one for 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.
And it came to pass in the tenth year of our captivity, in the twelfth month, on the fifth [day] of the month, [that] one that had escaped from Jerusalem came to me, saying, The city is 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 come upon me in the evening, before he came; and he opened my mouth, when he came to me in the morning: and my mouth was open, it was no longer kept closed.
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, they that inhabit the desolate [places] on the land of Israel say, Abram was one, and he possessed the land: and we are more numerous; to us the land is given for a possession.
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?
26 Jūs stāvat uz savu zobenu, jūs darāt negantību un apgānāt cits cita sievu, un jūs to zemi gribat paturēt par mantību?
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.
Therefore say to them, Thus says the Lord God, [As] I live, surely they that are in the desolate places shall fall by swords and they that are in the open plain shall be given for food to the wild beasts of the field, and them that are in the fortified [cities] and them that are in the caves I will kill with pestilence.
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 desert, and the pride of her strength shall perish; and the mountains of Israel shall be made desolate by reason of no man passing 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.
And they shall know that I am the Lord; and I will make their land desert, and it shall be made desolate because of all their abominations which they have wrought.
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 they that speak concerning you by the walls, and in the porches of the houses, and they talk one to another, saying, Let us come together, and let us hear the [words] that proceed 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.
They approach you as a people comes together, and sit before you, and hear your words, but they will not do them: for [there is] falsehood in their mouth, and their heart [goes] after their pollutions.
32 Un redzi! Tu tiem esi kā jauka dziesmiņa, kā skaista balss, kas labi skan, tādēļ tie klausa tavus vārdus, bet tos nedara.
And you are to them as a sound of a sweet, well-tuned lute, and they will hear your words, but they will not do them.
33 Bet kad nāks, - un redzi, nāk! - Tad tie samanīs, ka pravietis ir bijis viņu vidū.
But whenever it shall come [to pass], they will say, Behold, it is come: and they shall know that there was a prophet in the midst of them.
