Jesajas 19
1 Spriedums par Ēģipti. Redzi, Tas Kungs brauc uz viegla padebeša un nāk uz Ēģiptes zemi; un Ēģiptes elkadievi dreb Viņa priekšā, un ēģiptiešu sirds iekš tiem izkūst.
[I received] this message [from Yahweh] about Egypt: “Listen to this! I, Yahweh, am coming to Egypt, riding on a fast-moving cloud. The idols in Egypt will tremble when [I appear], and the people of Egypt will be extremely afraid [IDM].
2 Jo Es sarīdinu Ēģipti pret Ēģipti, ka tie karos ikkatrs pret savu brāli, un ikkatrs pret savu tuvāko, pilsēta pret pilsētu, valsts pret valsti.
I will cause the people of Egypt to fight against each other: men will fight against their brothers, neighbors will fight against each other, people of one city will fight against the people of another city, people of one province will fight against the people of another province.
3 Un ēģiptiešu prāts panīks viņu sirdī, un viņu padomu Es iznīcināšu; tad tie vaicās savus dievekļus un tos vārdotājus un zīlniekus un zīmju cienītājus.
The people of Egypt will become very discouraged, and I will cause their plans not to be successful. They will plead with idols and sorcerers and those who talk with spirits of dead people to tell them what they should do.
4 Un Es Ēģipti nodošu bargu kungu rokā, un briesmīgam ķēniņam būs pār tiem valdīt, saka Tas Kungs Dievs Cebaot.
Then I will enable someone who will treat them very cruelly to become their king [DOU].” That is what I, the Commander of the armies of angels, say.
5 Un ūdens izžūs jūrā, un tā upe izsīks un izžūs.
[Some day] the water in the [Nile] River will dry up, and the riverbed will become very dry [DOU].
6 Un strauti smirdēs, Ēģiptes grāvji paliks sekli un sausi, niedres un ašķi(meldri) savītīs.
The branches of the river will all dry up [DOU] The canals along the river will stink because of the rotting reeds and (bulrushes/tall grass).
7 Upes līči, upes malas un viss sējums pie upes savītīs, izputēs un izzudīs.
All the plants along the river and all the crops will dry up; then they will blow away and disappear.
8 Un zvejnieki žēlosies un visi bēdāsies un vaidēs, kas makšķeri met upē, un kas tīklu met ūdenī.
The fishermen will throw into the river lines with hooks on them and nets, and then they will groan and be very discouraged; they will be sad [because there will be no fish in the river].
9 Un kaunā paliks, kas smalkas dzijas vērpj un kas baltas drānas auž.
Those who weave cloth from flax will not know what to do, because there will be no thread for them to weave.
10 Un zemes pīlāri būs satriekti, un visi algādži apbēdināti.
They will all despair and be very discouraged.
11 Tīri ģeķi ir Coana virsnieki, Faraona gudrie padoma devēji; padoms ir palicis par ģeķību. Kā jūs varat sacīt uz Faraonu: es esmu gudru ļaužu dēls, vecu ķēniņu dēls.
The officials in Zoan [city in northern Egypt] are foolish. The advice that they gave to the king was worthless. Why do they continue to tell the king that they are wise, that they are descendants of wise kings who lived long ago [RHQ]?
12 Kur nu ir tavi gudrie? Lai tie tev dara zināmu, ka tu atzīsti, ko Tas Kungs Cebaot nodomājis par Ēģipti.
King, (where are your wise counselors now?/You have no wise counselors now!) [RHQ] If you had any wise counselors, they could tell you what the Commander of the armies of angels has planned to do to Egypt [SAR]!
13 Coana virsnieki ir palikuši par ģeķiem, Nofas virsnieki pievīlās un Ēģipti paved uz maldīšanos viņas cilšu galvas.
[Yes], the officials of Zoan have become foolish, and the leaders in Memphis [city in northern Egypt] have deceived themselves. [All] leaders of the people have (caused their people to do wrong things/led their people astray).
14 Tas Kungs pār viņiem izlējis maldu garu, ka tie apmāna ēģiptiešus visā viņu darīšanā, un šie kā piedzērušies vārtās savos vēmekļos.
Yahweh has caused them to be very foolish, with the result that in everything that they do, [it is as though the people of] Egypt stagger like [SIM] a drunken person staggers [and slips] in his own vomit.
15 Un tad ēģiptiešiem nekāds darbs neizdosies, ne galvai, ne astei, ne celmam, ne zaram.
There is no one in Egypt, rich or poor, important or unimportant, [who will be able to help them].
16 Tai dienā ēģiptieši būs kā sievas un bēdāsies un baiļosies no Tā Kunga Cebaot paceltās rokas, ko Viņš pret tiem paceļ.
At that time, the people of Egypt will be [as helpless] as [SIM] women. They will tremble, being terrified [because they know that] the Commander of the armies of angels has raised his fist, [ready to strike/punish them].
17 Un Jūda zeme būs Ēģiptei par briesmām; kas viņu pieminēs, tas baiļosies no Tā Kunga Cebaot padoma, ko Viņš pret tiem nodomājis.
The people of Egypt will be afraid of the people of Judah, and anyone who mentions Judah to them will cause them to be terrified, because [that will remind them] of what Yahweh, the Commander of the armies of angels, is planning to do to them.
18 Tai dienā piecas pilsētas Ēģiptes zemē runās Kanaāna valodu un zvērēs Tam Kungam Cebaot; vienu sauks Irhāeres (saules pilsēta, vai posta pilsēta).
At that time, [people in] five cities in Egypt will solemnly declare that they will serve Yahweh. They will [learn to] speak the Hebrew language. One of those cities will be called ‘City of the Sun’.
19 Tai dienā Tam Kungam būs altāris Ēģiptes vidū un piemiņas stabs pie viņas robežām priekš Tā Kunga.
At that time, there will be an altar for worshiping Yahweh in the center of Egypt, and there will be a (pillar/large rock) to honor Yahweh at the border [between Egypt and Israel].
20 Un tas būs Tam Kungam Cebaot par zīmi un par liecību Ēģiptes zemē; kad tie brēks uz To Kungu apspiedēju dēļ, tad Viņš tiem sūtīs pestītāju un aizstāvētāju, kas tos atpestīs.
That will be a sign to indicate that the Commander of the armies of angels is worshiped in the land of Egypt. And when the people cry out to Yahweh to help them because others are (oppressing them/causing them to suffer), he will send to them someone who will defend and rescue them.
21 Un Tas Kungs Sevi darīs zināmu Ēģiptei, un Ēģipte tai dienā To Kungu atzīs un Viņam kalpos ar kaujamiem un ēdamiem upuriem un Tam Kungam solīs solījumus un tos nomaksās.
Yahweh will enable the people of Egypt to know who he is, and at that time they will have a close relationship with Yahweh and worship him and bring to him offerings of grain and other sacrifices. They will solemnly promise to do things for Yahweh, and they will do what they promise.
22 Un Tas Kungs sitīs Ēģipti, Viņš to sitīs un dziedinās, un tie atgriezīsies pie Tā Kunga, un Viņš no tiem ļausies pielūgties un tos dziedinās.
After Yahweh has punished Egypt, he will cause their troubles to end. The people of Egypt will turn to Yahweh, and he will listen when they plead to him [for help], and he will cause their troubles to cease.
23 Tai dienā būs liels ceļš no Ēģiptes uz Asīriju, un Asīrija ies uz Ēģipti un Ēģipte uz Asīriju, un Ēģipte līdz ar Asīriju kalpos (Tam Kungam.)
At that time, there will be a highway between Egypt and Assyria. [As a result], the people of Egypt will [be able to] travel [easily] to Assyria, and the people of Assyria [will be able to travel easily] to Egypt. And the people of both countries will worship [Yahweh].
24 Tai dienā Israēls būs tas trešais ar Ēģipti un Asīriju, par svētību virs zemes.
And Israel will be their ally. All three nations will be [friendly to] each other, and the people of Israel will be a blessing to the people of the entire world.
25 Jo Tas Kungs Cebaot tos svētīs sacīdams: svētīti lai ir Mani ļaudis, Ēģipte un Asurs, Manu roku darbs, un Israēls, Mana mantība.
The Commander of the armies of angels will bless them, saying, “[You people of] Egypt are now my people. You people of Assyria, I have established your country. You people of Israel are the people whom I have chosen to belong to me.”
