Jesajas 10
1 Ak vai, tiem, kas ceļ netaisnus likumus, un tiem rakstītājiem, kas raksta grūtu tiesu,
Tragedy is coming to those who pass evil decrees and who write laws to harm people.
2 Ka nabagiem tiesu neizdod un tiesu laupa tiem bēdīgiem starp Maniem ļaudīm, ka atraitnes aplaupa un bāriņus posta!
They pervert the legal rights of the needy, and rob justice from the poor of my people. They steal from widows and cheat orphans.
3 Bet ko jūs darīsiet piemeklēšanas dienā un tai postā, kas nāk no tālienes? Pie kā bēgsiet pēc palīdzības, un kur glabāsiet savu godību?
What are you going to do on the day you're punished, when disaster falls on you from far away? Who are you going to run to so you can get help? Where are you going to leave all your wealth?
4 Bet jūs locīsities starp gūstītiem un kritīsiet starp nokautiem. Ar visu to Viņa dusmība nenovēršas, un Viņa roka vēl ir izstiepta.
All you'll be able to do is to bow down as prisoners, or lie among the dead! In all of this he is still angry and his hand is still raised.
5 Ak vai, Asuram! Tas ir Manas dusmības rīkste, un viņa rokā Manas bardzības zizlis.
Tragedy is coming to the Assyrians, even though the rod they use represents my anger and the stick they hold in their hands represents my fury!
6 Es viņu sūtu pret viltīgiem ļaudīm un viņam pavēlu pret ļaudīm, par kuriem Es apskaities, lai viņš tos laupīdams laupa un postīdams posta, un tos samin kā dubļus uz ielām.
I am sending the Assyrians against a nation that has given up on its God, against a people that make me angry. I order the Assyrians to loot them, to take their possessions, and to trample them down like mud in the street.
7 Bet viņam tā nešķiet, un viņa sirds tā nedomā; jo viņš apņēmies izdeldēt un izsakņot daudz tautas.
But this isn't what is behind the thinking of the king of Assyria. This isn't the plan he has in mind. What he wants to do is to destroy and eliminate many nations.
8 Jo viņš saka: vai mani virsnieki visi kopā nav ķēniņi?
He says: “All my commanders are kings!
9 Vai Kalno nav kā Karķemis? Vai Hamata nav kā Arvada? Vai Samarija nav kā Damaskus?
We conquered Calno like we did Carchemish; Hamath like Arpad; Samaria like Damascus.
10 Tā kā mana roka dabūjusi tās elku dievu valstis, jebšu viņu dievekļu bija vairāk nekā to, kas Jeruzālemē un Samarijā, -
I was the one who conquered these kingdoms along with the idols of their gods. These kingdoms had images of their gods that were better than those of Jerusalem and Samaria.
11 Vai es nevarētu darīt pie Jeruzālemes un pie viņas elkiem tāpat, kā esmu darījis pie Samarijas un viņas elkiem?
Why shouldn't I do to Jerusalem and her idols just what I did to Samaria and her idols?”
12 Bet kad Tas Kungs visu Savu darbu būs pabeidzis Ciānas kalnā un Jeruzālemē, tad (sacīs): Es piemeklēšu to sirds lepnības augli pie Asīrijas ķēniņa un viņa acu augsto greznību.
Once the Lord has finished all his work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, he will punish the king of Assyria for his terrible arrogance and for the conceited look in his eyes.
13 Jo tas saka: caur savas rokas spēku es to esmu darījis un caur savu gudrību, jo es esmu prātīgs. Es esmu atņēmis tautu robežas un laupījis viņu mantas un kā varonis zemē gāzis valdniekus.
For the king of Assyria says: “I have done this in my own strength. It was through my wisdom, because I'm clever. I have wiped out the boundaries of nations and looted their treasures. Like a bull I knocked their rulers off their thrones.
14 Un mana roka atradusi tautu bagātību kā ligzdu, un es esmu sagrābis visu pasauli, kā sagrābj atstātas olas, un neviens nav bijis, kas spārnu būtu kustinājis vai muti atdarījis vai pīkstējis.
Like robbing a bird's nest, I took the wealth of the nations. Like collecting abandoned eggs, I collected the whole the earth. There wasn't a fluttering wing or an open beak, not even a chirp!”
15 Vai tad cirvis lai lielās pret to, kas ar to cērt? Jeb vai zāģis lai turas pretī tam, kas to velk! tā kā zizlis to turētu, kas viņu paceļ, tā kā rīkste to cilātu, kas nav koks!
Does an ax say it's more important than the person swinging it? Does a saw boast that it's greater than the person sawing with it? It would be as if a rod waved the person holding it, or a walking stick lifted up a person—who certainly wasn't wood!
16 Tādēļ Tas Kungs Dievs Cebaot sūtīs diloni starp viņa (Asura) trekniem, un apakš viņa godības dedzin degs, kā uguns deg.
So the Lord, the Lord Almighty, will send a disease on the king of Assyria's strong warriors that will make them waste away; a flaming fire will be set under everything he's so proud of.
17 Un Israēla gaišums būs uguns, un viņa Svētais būs liesma, kas sadedzinās un norīs viņa ērkšķus un dadžus vienā dienā.
Israel's light will become a fire, and his Holy One will become a flame. It will burn up his thorns and brambles in just one day.
18 Un viņš aprīs viņa meža un viņa dārza godību, līdz ar dvēseli un miesu, un tas novārgs kā vārgulis.
It will totally destroy its splendid forests and orchards. Assyria will waste away, staggering off like someone sick.
19 Un viņa meža atlikušie koki būs mazs pulciņš, ka zēns tos varētu sarakstīt.
The trees left in its forests will be so few that a child could count them.
20 Tanī dienā Israēla atlikušie, un Jēkaba nama izglābtie nepaļausies vairs uz to, kas viņu sitis, bet uzticībā paļausies uz To Kungu, to Svēto iekš Israēla.
At that time those who are left in Israel and the survivors of the house of Jacob will no longer trust in those who turn on them, but they will truly trust in the Lord, the Holy One of Israel.
21 Tie atlikušie atgriezīsies, Jēkaba atlikušie, pie tā visuvarenā Dieva.
A remnant will return, a remnant of Jacob will come back to the Mighty God.
22 Jo jebšu tavi ļaudis, Israēl, ir kā jūras smiltis, tomēr (tikai) viņu atlikums atgriezīsies. Jo gals ir nospriests pilnīgā taisnībā.
Israel, even though your people are as numerous as sand on the seashore, only a remnant will return. The Lord has rightly decided to destroy his people.
23 Jo Tas Kungs Dievs Cebaot nolikto gala spriedumu izdarīs pa visu zemes virsu.
The Lord God Almighty has rightly decided to bring destruction throughout the whole country.
24 Tāpēc Tas Kungs Dievs Cebaot saka tā: Mani ļaudis, kas dzīvojat Ciānā, nebīstaties no Asura, kad tas jūs sit ar rīksti, un savu zizli paceļ pret jums, kā notika Ēģiptē.
So this is what the Lord, the Lord Almighty, says, My people living in Zion, don't be afraid of the Assyrians who beat you with rods and hit you with clubs, just like the Egyptians did.
25 Jo vēl mazs brīdis, tad dusmība būs pagalam, un Mana bardzība tos izdeldēs.
Very shortly I will stop being angry with you. Then I will turn my anger on them and I will destroy them.
26 Jo Tas Kungs Cebaot pacels pātagu pret to, kā Viņš sita Midijanu pie Horeba kalna, un Ciņa zizlis ir pār jūru un viņš to paceļ kā Ēģiptes zemē.
The Lord Almighty will lash them with a whip, just as he did when he attacked the Midianites at the rock of Oreb. He will hold up his rod over the sea, just as he did in Egypt.
27 Un tai dienā viņa nasta atstāsies no tava kamieša un viņa jūgs no tava kakla, un tas jūgs šķīdīs no treknuma.
At that time he will remove the burden from your shoulders and the yoke from your neck. The yoke will be broken because of the anointing with oil.
28 Tas nāk uz Ajatu, tas iet caur Migronu, Mikmasā tas atstāj savas lietas.
The Assyrians came to Aiath, passed through Migron, and stored their supplies at Michmash.
29 Tie iet caur šaurumu, Ģebā tie paliek par nakti, Rāma dreb, Saula Ģibeja bēg.
They cross the pass, saying, “We'll stay overnight at Geba.” The people of Ramah tremble in fear; the inhabitants of Gibeah of Saul run away.
30 Kliedz stiprā balsī, Galima meita! Klausies, Laīša! nabaga Anatota!
Shout out a warning, people of Gallim! Pay attention, those living in Laishah! You poor people of Anathoth!
31 Madmena bēg, Ģebimas iedzīvotāji glābjās.
The people of Madmenah, are all running away. The inhabitants of Gebim are looking for somewhere safe.
32 Vēl šodien tas apmetīsies Nobā, pacels roku pret Ciānas meitas kalnu, pret Jeruzālemes pakalnu.
Today the invaders stop at Nob, shaking their fists at the mountain of the Daughter of Zion, at the hill of Jerusalem.
33 Redzi, Tas Kungs Dievs Cebaot nokapā tos zarus ar briesmīgu varu, un tie, kas ir augsti augumā, top nocirsti, un tie lielie pazemoti.
Look how the Lord Almighty is going to chop off the branches with great force. The tall trees will be cut down, the proud trees will be brought crashing down.
34 Un Viņš nocērt ar dzelzi biezos meža krūmus, un Lībanus krīt caur vareno.
He will cut down the thick forest with an ax, and Lebanon will fall at the hand of the Mighty One.
