Jesajas 10
1 Ak vai, tiem, kas ceļ netaisnus likumus, un tiem rakstītājiem, kas raksta grūtu tiesu,
Woe [to] those decreeing decrees of iniquity, And writers who have prescribed perverseness.
2 Ka nabagiem tiesu neizdod un tiesu laupa tiem bēdīgiem starp Maniem ļaudīm, ka atraitnes aplaupa un bāriņus posta!
To turn aside from judgment the poor, And to take violently away the judgment Of the afflicted of My people, That widows may be their prey, That the fatherless they may spoil.
3 Bet ko jūs darīsiet piemeklēšanas dienā un tai postā, kas nāk no tālienes? Pie kā bēgsiet pēc palīdzības, un kur glabāsiet savu godību?
And what do ye at a day of inspection? And at desolation? — from afar it cometh. Near whom do ye flee for help? And where do ye leave your honour?
4 Bet jūs locīsities starp gūstītiem un kritīsiet starp nokautiem. Ar visu to Viņa dusmība nenovēršas, un Viņa roka vēl ir izstiepta.
Without Me it hath bowed down In the place of a bound one, And in the place of the slain they fall. With all this not turned back hath His anger, And still His hand is stretched out.
5 Ak vai, Asuram! Tas ir Manas dusmības rīkste, un viņa rokā Manas bardzības zizlis.
Woe [to] Asshur, a rod of Mine anger, And a staff in their hand [is] Mine 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 a profane nation I send him, And concerning a people of My wrath I charge him, To spoil spoil, and to seize prey, And to make it a treading-place as the clay of out places.
7 Bet viņam tā nešķiet, un viņa sirds tā nedomā; jo viņš apņēmies izdeldēt un izsakņot daudz tautas.
And he — he thinketh not so, And his heart reckoneth not so, For — to destroy [is] in his heart, And to cut off nations not a few.
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 got to the kingdoms of a worthless thing, and their graven images, [Greater] than Jerusalem and than Samaria,
11 Vai es nevarētu darīt pie Jeruzālemes un pie viņas elkiem tāpat, kā esmu darījis pie Samarijas un viņas elkiem?
Do I not — as I have done to Samaria, And to her worthless things, So do to Jerusalem and to her grievous things?
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.
And it hath come to pass, When the Lord doth fulfil all His work In mount Zion and in Jerusalem, I see concerning the fruit of the greatness Of the heart of the king of Asshur. And concerning the glory of the height of 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 he hath said, 'By the power of my hand I have wrought, And by my wisdom, for I have been intelligent, And I remove borders of the peoples, And their chief ones I have spoiled, And I put down as a mighty one the inhabitants,
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.
And my hand as to a nest Getteth to the wealth of the peoples, And as a gathering of forsaken eggs All the earth I — I have gathered, And there hath not been one moving wing, Or opening mouth, or whispering.'
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!
— Doth the axe glorify itself Against him who is hewing with it? Doth the saw magnify itself Against him who is shaking it? As a rod waving those lifting it up! As a staff lifting up that which is not wood!
16 Tādēļ Tas Kungs Dievs Cebaot sūtīs diloni starp viņa (Asura) trekniem, un apakš viņa godības dedzin degs, kā uguns deg.
Therefore doth the Lord, the Lord of Hosts, Send among his fat ones leanness, And under his honour He kindleth a burning As 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.
And the light of Israel hath been for a fire, And his Holy One for a flame, And it hath burned, and devoured his thorn And his brier in one day.
18 Un viņš aprīs viņa meža un viņa dārza godību, līdz ar dvēseli un miesu, un tas novārgs kā vārgulis.
And the honour of his forest, and his fruitful field, From soul even unto flesh He doth consume, And it hath been as the fainting of a standard-bearer.
19 Un viņa meža atlikušie koki būs mazs pulciņš, ka zēns tos varētu sarakstīt.
And the rest of the trees of his forest [are] few, And a youth doth write 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.
And it hath come to pass, in that day, The remnant of Israel, And the escaped of the house of Jacob, Do not add any more to lean on its smiter, And have leant on Jehovah, The Holy One of Israel, in truth.
21 Tie atlikušie atgriezīsies, Jēkaba atlikušie, pie tā visuvarenā Dieva.
A remnant returneth — a remnant of Jacob, Unto the Mighty God.
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 Israel be as the sand of the sea, A remnant doth return of it, A consumption determined, Overflowing [with] righteousness.
23 Jo Tas Kungs Dievs Cebaot nolikto gala spriedumu izdarīs pa visu zemes virsu.
For a consumption that is determined, The Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, Is making in the midst of all the 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.
Therefore, thus said the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, 'Be not afraid, my people, inhabiting Zion, because of Asshur, With a rod he doth smite thee, And his staff lifteth up against thee, in the way of Egypt.
25 Jo vēl mazs brīdis, tad dusmība būs pagalam, un Mana bardzība tos izdeldēs.
For yet a very little, And the indignation hath been completed, And Mine anger by their wearing out.
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.
And awaking for him is Jehovah of Hosts, A scourge like the smiting of Midian at the rock Oreb, And his rod [is] over the sea, And he hath lifted it in the way of Egypt.
27 Un tai dienā viņa nasta atstāsies no tava kamieša un viņa jūgs no tava kakla, un tas jūgs šķīdīs no treknuma.
And it hath come to pass, in that day, Turned is his burden from off thy shoulder, And his yoke from off thy neck, And destroyed hath been the yoke, because of prosperity.
28 Tas nāk uz Ajatu, tas iet caur Migronu, Mikmasā tas atstāj savas lietas.
He hath come in against Aiath, He hath passed over into Migron, At Michmash he looketh after his vessels.
29 Tie iet caur šaurumu, Ģebā tie paliek par nakti, Rāma dreb, Saula Ģibeja bēg.
They have gone over the passage, Geba they have made a lodging place, Trembled hath Rama, Gibeah of Saul fled.
30 Kliedz stiprā balsī, Galima meita! Klausies, Laīša! nabaga Anatota!
Cry aloud [with] thy voice, daughter of Gallim, Give attention, Laish! answer her, Anathoth.
31 Madmena bēg, Ģebimas iedzīvotāji glābjās.
Fled away hath Madmenah, The inhabitants of the high places have hardened themselves.
32 Vēl šodien tas apmetīsies Nobā, pacels roku pret Ciānas meitas kalnu, pret Jeruzālemes pakalnu.
Yet to-day in Nob to remain, Wave its hand doth 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.
Lo, the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, Is lopping a branch with violence, And the high of stature are cut down, And the lofty are become low,
34 Un Viņš nocērt ar dzelzi biezos meža krūmus, un Lībanus krīt caur vareno.
And He hath gone round the thickets of the forest with iron, And Lebanon by a mighty one falleth!
