Jesajas 1
1 Jesajas, Amoca dēla, parādīšana, ko viņš redzējis par Jūdu un Jeruzālemi Uzijas, Jotama, Ahaza un Hizkijas, Jūda ķēniņu, dienās.
[I am] Isaiah, the son of Amoz. [Yahweh showed me] visions about Jerusalem and [all the other places in] Judah. He showed me these visions during the years that Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah were kings of Judah.
2 Klausāties, debesis, un ņem vērā, zeme, jo Tas Kungs runā: “Bērnus Es esmu uzaudzinājis un izvilcis, bet tie no Manis atkāpušies.
This is what Yahweh says: “All you [angels in] [APO] heaven and [all you people on] [APO] earth, listen to me! The people that I caused to exist and took care of [DOU] have rebelled against me.
3 Vērsis pazīst savu kungu un ēzelis sava kunga sili; Israēls nepazīst, Mani ļaudis nesaprot.”
Oxen know their owners, and donkeys know who provides food for them, but my Israeli people do not know [me]; they do not realize [that I am the one who takes care of them].”
4 Ak vai, tai grēcīgai tautai, tiem ļaudīm, kas grūti noziegušies, tam ļaundarītāju dzimumam, tiem bērniem, kas samaitājās; tie ir atstājuši To Kungu, nicinājuši to Svēto iekš Israēla, nogriezušies atpakaļ.
Terrible things will happen to that sinful nation, to those people who are guilty of sinning greatly. They are a group of very evil people, who act very unjustly. They have abandoned Yahweh, the holy one of Israel; they have (abandoned/turned away from) him.
5 Par ko jūs vēl vairāk būs sist, kad jūs vienmēr atkāpjaties? Visa galva ir vāja, un visa sirds nogurusi.
Why do you [RHQ] continue to [do things for which] you should be punished? Why do you continue to rebel against Yahweh? [You are like] [MET] someone whose head is badly injured and whose mind is sick/corrupt.
6 No pēdas līdz pat galvai tur nav veseluma, bet vātis un brūces un jaunas vainas, kas nav izspiestas nedz sasietas nedz ar eļļu mīkstinātas.
[It is as though] [MET] from the soles/bottoms of your feet to the [tops of your] heads nothing is healthy; there are only open wounds and cuts and sores that have not been cleaned or bandaged, and no [olive] oil has been put on them [to heal them].
7 Jūsu zeme ir postaža, jūsu pilsētas ar uguni sadedzinātas, jūsu tīrumus, sveši ļaudis tos ēd, jums klāt esot, un ir posts, kā sveši ļaudis posta.
[It is as though] your country is ruined/desolate; your towns have been burned. Foreigners plunder/steal the crops in your fields while you watch; they destroy everything [that they see].
8 Un Ciānas meita atlikusi kā būdiņa vīna dārzā, tā kā pieguļnieka vietiņa gurķu dārzā, kā aplēģerēta pilsēta.
The city of Jerusalem has [already] been abandoned, it is like [SIM] a shelter in a vineyard that has been abandoned by the watchmen; it is like [SIM] a watchman’s hut in a field of melons that has been deserted. It is a city surrounded by its enemies who are waiting to attack it.
9 Ja Tas Kungs Cebaot mums nebūtu atlicinājis kādu mazumu, mēs būtu kā Sodoma, mēs būtu tā kā Gomora.
If the Commander of the armies of angels had not allowed a few of us [his people] to (survive/remain alive), we would have [all] been [destroyed], like [the cities of] Sodom and Gomorrah [were destroyed].
10 Klausiet Tā Kunga vārdu, Sodomas virsnieki, ņemiet vērā mūsu Dieva mācību, Gomoras ļaudis.
You [leaders of Judah are as wicked as] the rulers of Sodom were, and you [other people in Jerusalem areas are as wicked as] the people in Gomorrah [were]. Listen to this message from Yahweh, [all of you]!
11 Kas man no jūsu upuru pulka? Saka Tas Kungs; Es esmu apnicis aunu dedzināmos upurus un barotu teļu taukus, un vēršu un jēru un āžu asinis Es negribu.
He says, “You continue to bring many sacrifices to me, but I do not [RHQ] want them [because you do not worship me sincerely]! You bring me many offerings to be completely burned [on the altar], [but] I (am tired/do not want any more) of your burning all those offerings, the burning rams and the fat from fat cattle. I am not pleased with the blood of bulls and lambs and goats that [the priest] pours [against the altar].
12 Kad jūs nākat parādīties Manā priekšā, kas to no jums prasa, ka jūs saminat Manus pagalmus?
When you come to my temple to worship me, no one [RHQ] told you to trample on my courtyard while you perform all those rituals.
13 Nenesiet vairs nelietīgu ēdamu upuri, tā Man ir neganta kvēpināšana; jaunos mēnešus un svētdienas un draudzes sapulces Es neieredzu, jūsu svētki ir blēdība.
Stop bringing to me those offerings, because they are useless [to me]; I am disgusted with the incense that [the priests burn]. And [your feasts to celebrate] the new moon [each month] and your (Sabbath [days]/days of rest) and your [other] festivals— I detest them because of the wicked things [that you do].
14 Mana dvēsele ienīst jūsu jaunos mēnešus un jūsu svētku laikus. Tie Man ir par nastu, Es esmu piekusis tos panest.
I [SYN] hate [all] your celebrations of each new moon and the [other] festivals that you celebrate each year. They are [like] [MET] a heavy burden that I am tired of carrying.
15 Un kad jūs savas rokas izpletīsiet, Es apslēpju Savas acis no jums, un kad jūs daudz lūgšanas turiet, tomēr Es neklausu, jo jūsu rokas ir asiņu pilnas.
[So], when you lift up your hands when you pray [to me], I will not [even] look at you. Even if you pray [to me very] frequently, I will not listen [to you], [because it is as though] your hands are covered with the blood [of people whom you have killed].
16 Mazgājaties, šķīstaties, atmetat savus ļaunos darbus no Manām acīm nost, nedarāt vairs ļauna.
Cleanse your inner beings, and become [spiritually] clean! Stop your evil behavior! Stop doing things that are wrong!
17 Mācieties labu darīt, meklējat tiesu, atgriežat varas darītāju, izdodiet bāriņam tiesu, aizstāviet atraitni.
Learn to do [things that are] good! [Try to] cause people to do what is just. Help people who are (oppressed/treated cruelly). Defend orphans and widows [when people take them to court].”
18 Tad nāciet nu, tiesāsimies, saka Tas Kungs: kad jūsu grēki tik sarkani būtu kā asinis, taču tie taps balti kā sniegs, un jebšu tie būtu kā purpurs, taču tie kļūs tāpat kā vilna.
Yahweh says, “You need to think about the results of what you do. Even though [the guilt of] your sins be [as evident and as difficult to get rid of] as [SIM] red [stains on a white garment] [DOU], [I will get rid of them completely] [like someone who can make that stained garment] become as white as snow or wool [DOU].
19 Ja jūs gribēsiet un klausīsiet, tad jūs ēdīsiet zemes labumu.
If you are willing to obey [me], [I will enable] you to have plenty to eat.
20 Bet ja jūs liedzaties un turaties pretī, tad jūs no zobena tapsiet aprīti; jo Tā Kunga mute to runājusi.
But, if you turn away [from me and] rebel against me, you will be killed [by your enemies’] swords. [That will surely happen, because I, ] Yahweh, have said it.”
21 Kā tā ticīgā pilsēta palikusi par mauku? Tā bija pilna tiesas, taisnība tur mājoja, bet nu slepkavas.
“[You people of Jerusalem previously] faithfully [worshiped only] me, but now you have become like [MET] prostitutes [who are not faithful to any husband]. Previously, people there always acted justly/fairly and righteously, but now your city [is full of] murderers.
22 Tavs sudrabs ir tapis par sārņiem, tavs vīns ir jaukts ar ūdeni.
Previously, you were [like] [MET] pure silver, but now you have become [like] [MET] the scum that is left [when silver is purified]. Previously you were [like pure] wine, but you have become [like] [MET] wine that has [a lot of] water mixed with it.
23 Tavi virsnieki ir atkāpēji un zagļu biedri; tie visi kāro dāvanas un dzenās pēc maksas; bāriņam tie neizdod tiesu un atraitnes sūdzība nenāk viņu priekšā.
Your leaders are rebels; they spend time with thieves. They all want to get bribes and force others to give them gifts [in order that they do good things for them]. They do not defend orphans [in court], and they do not do all they can to enable widows to get what they should receive.
24 Tādēļ saka Tas Kungs Dievs Cebaot, Israēla Varenais: ak vai! Es iepriecināšos par Saviem pretiniekiem, es atriebšos pie Saviem ienaidniekiem.
Therefore [I, ] the Commander of the armies of angels, the mighty God of Israel, say to my enemies, ‘will get revenge on you; you will not cause me any more trouble. And I will pay you back for the evil things that you did.
25 Un Es griezīšu Savu roku pret tevi un tīrīšu kā ar sārmu tavus sārņus un nošķiršu visu tavu alvu.
I will raise my fist to strike you. I will [punish you severely] [MET], as though [MET] you were silver [and I needed to heat you very greatly to] melt you and get rid of the impurities.
26 Un Es tev atkal došu soģus kā senāk, un padoma devējus kā vecos laikos. Pēc tam tu tapsi saukta taisnības pils, ticīgā pilsēta.
[After that happens, ] I will give you good judges like you had previously; you will have [wise] counselors like you had long ago. Then people will call your city “a city where people [act] righteously, a city where people are loyal to me.”'”
27 Ciāna caur tiesu taps izpestīta un viņas(dēli) atgriezīsies caur taisnību.
Because the people of Jerusalem will do what is fair/just, their city will be restored; those who repent [will be saved] because of [their acting] righteously.
28 Bet tie pārkāpēji un grēcinieki visi taps satriekti, un kas no Tā Kunga atkāpjās, ies bojā.
But rebels and sinners will be crushed by Yahweh, and those who forsake him will disappear.
29 Jo tie taps kaunā to ozolu dēļ, ko jūs bijāt iekārojuši, un jūs kaunēsities to dārzu dēļ, ko bijāt izredzējušies.
You will be ashamed because [you worshiped] idols under the oak trees [that you considered to be] sacred; you will be disgraced because [you worshiped idols] in the gardens where you chose [to worship them].
30 Jo jūs būsiet tā kā ozols, kam lapas savīst, un kā dārzs, kam ūdens nav.
You will be like [SIM] a very large tree which has withered leaves, like [SIM] a garden that [is dried up because] it has no water.
31 Tad varenais būs kā pakulas, un viņa darbs kā dzirkstele, un abi kopā degs un nebūs neviena, kas dzēš.
Those among you who are [very] strong will become [like] [MET] dry wood, and the work they do will be [like] [MET] a spark; both they and the evil things that they do will burn up completely, and no one will be able to put out the fire.
