Jesajas 25
1 Kungs, Tu esi mans Dievs, es Tevi gribu paaugstināt, slavēt Tavu vārdu; jo Tu esi darījis brīnumus. Tavi padomi no sen dienām ir patiesība un uzticība.
O Lord, thou art my God, I will exalt thee, and give glory to thy name: for thou hast done wonderful things, thy designs of old faithful, amen.
2 Jo Tu pilsētu esi padarījis par akmeņu kopu, stipru pili par gruvešiem, svešu ļaužu skaistos namus, ka tā vairs nav pilsēta, - nemūžam to vairs neuzcels.
For thou hast reduced the city to a heap, the strong city to ruin, the house of strangers, to be no city, and to be no more built up for ever.
3 Tāpēc Tevi slavēs stipra tauta, varenu ļaužu pilsētas Tevi bīsies.
Therefore shall a strong people praise thee, the city of mighty nations shall fear thee.
4 Jo Tu esi patvērums nabagam, patvērums vājam viņa bēdās, aizsegs pret plūdiem, pavēnis pret karstumu; jo tie briesmīgie šņāc kā plūdi pret mūri.
Because thou hast been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress: a refuge from the whirlwind, a shadow from the heat. For the blast of the mighty is like a whirlwind beating against a wall.
5 Tā kā karstumu izkaltušā zemē, tā Tu nospiedi svešo ļaužu trakumu; kā karstums caur padebeša ēnu, tā briesmīgo ļaužu dziesma apklusa.
Thou shalt bring down the tumult of strangers, as heat in thirst: and as with heat under a burning cloud, thou shalt make the branch of the mighty to wither away.
6 Un Tas Kungs Cebaot darīs uz šī kalna visām tautām taukas dzīres, dzīres no veca vīna, no taukiem ēdieniem un no veca izkāsta vīna.
And the Lord of hosts shall make unto all people in this mountain, a feast of fat things, a feast of wine, of fat things full of marrow, of wine purified from the lees.
7 Un Viņš izdeldēs uz šī kalna to vaiga apsegu, ar ko visas tautas ir apsegtas, un to deķi, ar ko visi pagāni apklāti.
And he shall destroy in this mountain the face of the bond with which all people were tied, and the web that he began over all nations.
8 Viņš nāvi aprīs mūžīgi. Un Tas Kungs Dievs noslaucīs asaras no visiem vaigiem un atņems Savu ļaužu negodu no visas zemes virsas; jo Tas Kungs to ir runājis.
He shall cast death down headlong for ever: and the Lord God shall wipe away tears from every face, and the reproach of his people he shall take away from off the whole earth: for the Lord hath spoken it.
9 Un tai dienā sacīs: redzi, šis ir mūsu Dievs, uz Viņu esam gaidījuši, ka Viņš mūs izpestī. Šis ir Tas Kungs, uz Viņu esam gaidījuši, lai priecājamies un līksmojamies par Viņa pestīšanu.
And they shall say in that day: Lo, this is our God, we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the Lord, we have patiently waited for him, we shall rejoice and be joyfull in his salvation.
10 Jo Tā Kunga roka dusēs uz šā kalna. Bet Moabs taps samīts apakš Viņa, tā kā salmi top samīdīti mēslos.
For the hand of the Lord shall rest in this mountain: and Moab shall be trodden down under him, as straw is broken in pieces with the wain.
11 Un Viņš tur izpletīs Savas rokas tā kā peldētājs tās izpleš peldēdams, un Dievs pazemos viņa greznību līdz ar viņa roku viltību.
And he shall stretch forth his hands under him, as he that swimmeth stretcheth forth his hands to swim: and he shall bring down his glory with the dashing of his hands.
12 Un tavus augstos stipros pils mūrus Viņš gāzīs, pazemos un pīšļos metīs pie zemes.
And the bulwarks of thy high walls shall fall, and be brought low, and shall be pulled down to the ground, even to the dust.
