Jesajas 10
1 Ak vai, tiem, kas ceļ netaisnus likumus, un tiem rakstītājiem, kas raksta grūtu tiesu,
Woe to them that make unrighteous decrees, That write oppressive decisions,
2 Ka nabagiem tiesu neizdod un tiesu laupa tiem bēdīgiem starp Maniem ļaudīm, ka atraitnes aplaupa un bāriņus posta!
To turn away the needy from judgment, And rob the poor of my people of their right; That the widows may become their prey, And that they may plunder the 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 will ye do in the day of visitation, And in the desolation which cometh from afar? To whom will ye flee for help, And where will ye leave your glory?
4 Bet jūs locīsities starp gūstītiem un kritīsiet starp nokautiem. Ar visu to Viņa dusmība nenovēršas, un Viņa roka vēl ir izstiepta.
Forsaken by me, they shall sink down among the prisoners, And fall among the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away, But his hand is stretched out still.
5 Ak vai, Asuram! Tas ir Manas dusmības rīkste, un viņa rokā Manas bardzības zizlis.
Woe to the Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, The staff in whose hands is the instrument of my indignation!
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.
Against an impious nation I will send him, And against a people under my wrath I will give him a charge To gather the spoil, and seize the prey, And to trample them under foot like the mire of the streets.
7 Bet viņam tā nešķiet, un viņa sirds tā nedomā; jo viņš apņēmies izdeldēt un izsakņot daudz tautas.
But he doth not so purpose, And his heart doth not so intend; But to destroy is in his heart, And to cut off a multitude of nations.
8 Jo viņš saka: vai mani virsnieki visi kopā nav ķēniņi?
For he saith, “Are not my princes altogether kings?
9 Vai Kalno nav kā Karķemis? Vai Hamata nav kā Arvada? Vai Samarija nav kā Damaskus?
Is not Calno as Carchemish? Is not Hamath as Arpad? Is not Samaria as Damascus?
10 Tā kā mana roka dabūjusi tās elku dievu valstis, jebšu viņu dievekļu bija vairāk nekā to, kas Jeruzālemē un Samarijā, -
As my hand hath seized the kingdoms of the idols, Whose graven images were more numerous 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?
Behold! as I have done to Samaria and her idols, So will I do to Jerusalem and her images.”
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.
But when the Lord hath accomplished his whole work upon Mount Zion and Jerusalem, Then will he punish the fruit of the proud heart of the king of Assyria, And the arrogance of his lofty 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 he hath said: “By the strength of my hand I have done it, And by my wisdom; for I am wise; I have removed the bounds of nations, I have plundered their treasures; As a hero have I brought down them that sat upon 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.
The riches of the nations hath my hand seized, as a nest; As one gathereth eggs that have been left, So have I gathered the whole world. And there was none that moved the wing, Or that opened the beak, or that chirped.”
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!
Shall the axe boast itself against him that heweth with it? Or shall the saw magnify itself against him that moveth it? As if the rod should wield him that lifteth it! As if the staff should lift up him that is not wood!
16 Tādēļ Tas Kungs Dievs Cebaot sūtīs diloni starp viņa (Asura) trekniem, un apakš viņa godības dedzin degs, kā uguns deg.
Wherefore the Lord, the Lord of hosts, shall send upon his fat ones leanness, And under his glory shall he kindle a burning, like the burning of a fire.
17 Un Israēla gaišums būs uguns, un viņa Svētais būs liesma, kas sadedzinās un norīs viņa ērkšķus un dadžus vienā dienā.
The light of Israel shall be a fire, And his Holy One a flame, Which shall burn and devour his thorns and briers in one day.
18 Un viņš aprīs viņa meža un viņa dārza godību, līdz ar dvēseli un miesu, un tas novārgs kā vārgulis.
The glory of his forest and of his fruitful field From the spirit even to the flesh shall he consume; It shall be with them as when a sick man fainteth.
19 Un viņa meža atlikušie koki būs mazs pulciņš, ka zēns tos varētu sarakstīt.
The remaining trees of the forest shall be few, So that a child may write them down.
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.
In that day shall the remnant of Israel, and they that have escaped of the house of Jacob, no more lean upon him that smote them; They shall lean upon Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.
21 Tie atlikušie atgriezīsies, Jēkaba atlikušie, pie tā visuvarenā Dieva.
The remnant shall return, the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty Potentate;
22 Jo jebšu tavi ļaudis, Israēl, ir kā jūras smiltis, tomēr (tikai) viņu atlikums atgriezīsies. Jo gals ir nospriests pilnīgā taisnībā.
For though thy people, O Israel, be as the sand of the sea, Only a remnant of them shall return. The devastation is decreed; It shall overflow with righteousness.
23 Jo Tas Kungs Dievs Cebaot nolikto gala spriedumu izdarīs pa visu zemes virsu.
For devastation and punishment doth the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, execute in the midst of the whole land,
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.
Yet thus saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts: Fear not, O my people, that dwellest in Zion, because of the Assyrian! With his rod indeed shall he smite thee, And lift up his staff against thee in the manner of Egypt;
25 Jo vēl mazs brīdis, tad dusmība būs pagalam, un Mana bardzība tos izdeldēs.
But yet a very little while, and my indignation shall have past, And my anger shall 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.
Jehovah of hosts shall raise up against him a scourge, As he smote Midian at the rock of Horeb, And as he lifted up the rod against the sea; Yea, he shall lift it up, as in Egypt.
27 Un tai dienā viņa nasta atstāsies no tava kamieša un viņa jūgs no tava kakla, un tas jūgs šķīdīs no treknuma.
In that day shall his burden be removed from thy shoulder, And his yoke from thy neck; Yea, thy yoke shall be broken, as that of a fat steer.
28 Tas nāk uz Ajatu, tas iet caur Migronu, Mikmasā tas atstāj savas lietas.
He is come to Aiath; he passeth through Migron; In Michmash he leaveth his baggage;
29 Tie iet caur šaurumu, Ģebā tie paliek par nakti, Rāma dreb, Saula Ģibeja bēg.
They pass the strait; At Geba they make their night-quarters; Ramah trembleth; Gibeah of Saul fleeth.
30 Kliedz stiprā balsī, Galima meita! Klausies, Laīša! nabaga Anatota!
Cry aloud, O daughter of Gallim! Hear, O Laish! Alas, poor Anathoth!
31 Madmena bēg, Ģebimas iedzīvotāji glābjās.
Madmenah hasteth away; The inhabitants of Gebim take to flight.
32 Vēl šodien tas apmetīsies Nobā, pacels roku pret Ciānas meitas kalnu, pret Jeruzālemes pakalnu.
Yet one day shall he rest at Nob, Then shall he shake his hand against the mount of the daughter of Zion, 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.
But behold! the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, shall lop the branches with fearful force, And the high of stature shall be cut down, And the lofty shall be brought low.
34 Un Viņš nocērt ar dzelzi biezos meža krūmus, un Lībanus krīt caur vareno.
He shall hew the thickets of the forest with iron, And Lebanon shall fall by a mighty hand.
