Ecechiela 4
1 Un tu cilvēka bērns, ņem sev ķieģeli un liec to savā priekšā un raksti uz to Jeruzālemes pilsētu.
“Son of man, you are to take a brick, put in front of you, and draw a picture of the city of Jerusalem on it.
2 Un taisi aplēģerēšanu pret to un uztaisi bulverķus(ielenkšanas torņi) pret to un uzmet valni pret to un nostādi karaspēku pret to un liec tai āžus(mūru dragājamais) visapkārt.
Show that it's under siege: establish a siege perimeter all around it, build a siege ramp against it, set up the enemy camps beside it, and put battering rams on all sides around it.
3 Un ņem sev dzelzs pannu un liec to par dzelzs mūri starp sevi un pilsētu, un griez savu vaigu pret to, un tā lai tā top apsēsta, un tu to apsēdi. Tā lai ir zīme Israēla namam.
Put an iron plate between yourself and the city so it's like an iron wall. Face the city and demonstrate that it's under siege, and that you are the one attacking it. This is a symbolic warning to the people of Israel.
4 Un tu gulies uz saviem kreisiem sāniem un liec uz tiem Israēla nama noziegumu; pēc to dienu skaita, cik uz tiem gulēsi, tev būs nest viņu noziegumu.
Then lie on your left side and take the Israelites' sins on yourself. You will carry their sins for the number of days you lie on your side.
5 Jo Es tos gadus, cik viņi grēkojuši, tev skaitīšu par dienām, trīssimt deviņdesmit dienas; tik ilgi tev būs nest Israēla nama noziegumu.
I will make you stay there for 390 days, representing the number of years of their sins. You will bear the sins of the Israelites.
6 Un kad tu šās pabeigsi, tad gulies otru reizi uz saviem labiem sāniem un tev būs nest Jūda nama noziegumu četrdesmit dienas; Es tev dodu ik dienu par ik gadu.
Once you have finished doing this for these days, then you are to lie down again, but this time on your right side, and carry the sins of the people of Judah. I will make you stay there for 40 days, one day for every year.
7 Un griez savu vaigu un savu atsegto elkoni pret apsēsto Jeruzālemi, un sludini pret viņu.
Keep your face towards the siege of Jerusalem with your arm bared, and prophesy against it.
8 Un redzi, Es tev aplikšu virves, ka nevarēsi grozīties no vieniem sāniem uz otriem, kamēr būsi pabeidzis savas aplēģerēšanas(aplenkuma) dienas.
Be ready, because now I'm going to tie you up with ropes so you can't move from side to side until the days of your siege are over.
9 Un tu ņem sev kviešus un miežus un pupas un lēcas, putraimus un rudzus, un liec tos traukā, un taisi sev no tiem maizi, pēc to dienu skaita, cik tu gulēsi uz saviem sāniem, ka tev ir ko ēst trīssimt un deviņdesmit dienas.
Get some wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, and spelt, and mix them together in a storage jar. Use them to make bread for yourself. This is what you are to eat for the 390 days that you lie on your side.
10 Tava barība, ko tu ēdīsi, lai sver divdesmit sēķeļus uz dienu; savos laikos tev to būs ēst.
You are allowed to eat twenty shekels weight of food each day, and you are to eat it at regular times.
11 Arī ūdeni tev būs dzert ar mēru, inna sesto tiesu, savos laikos tev to būs dzert.
Measure out a sixth of a hin of water to drink, and you are to drink it at regular times.
12 Un tev būs ēst miežu karašas, un tās cept uz cilvēka sūdiem priekš viņu acīm.
You are to eat the bread as you would a barley loaf. You are to bake it over a fire burning dried human excrement as everyone watches.”
13 Un Tas Kungs sacīja: Israēla bērni tāpat ēdīs savu maizi nešķīstu starp tiem pagāniem, kurp Es tos aizdzīšu.
Then the Lord said, “This is the way the Israelites will eat their unclean bread among the nations where I'll exile them.”
14 Tad es sacīju: ak Kungs, Dievs! Redzi, mana dvēsele nekad nav sagānījusies, jo no savas jaunības es neesmu ēdis ne maitu, ne saplosītu, un neganta gaļa nav nākusi manā mutē.
“Please no, Lord God!” I answered. “I have never made myself unclean. I haven't eaten anything found dead or killed by wild animals from the time I was young until now. I've never put unclean meat in my mouth.”
15 Un Viņš uz mani sacīja: redzi, Es tev atvēlu ņemt lopu sūdus cilvēku sūdu vietā, uz kuriem tev būs sataisīt savu maizi.
“All right,” he said. “I'll let you use cow manure instead of human excrement You can bake your bread over a fire using that.”
16 Un Viņš uz mani sacīja: cilvēka bērns! Redzi, Es atņemšu maizes padomu Jeruzālemē, un tie maizi ēdīs pēc svara un ar sirdēstiem, un dzers ūdeni ar mēru un ar izbailēm,
Then he went on, “Son of man, watch! I am going to put a stop to Jerusalem's food supply. Worried sick, they will eat bread rationed by weight. Despairing at what's happening, they will drink water measured in small amounts.
17 Tādēļ ka tiem būs maizes un ūdens trūkums, un tie iztrūksies viens ar otru un ies bojā savos noziegumos.
Running out of food and water, they will be horrified as they look at one another wasting away because of their sins.”
