< 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, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful [things; thy] counsels of old [are] faithfulness [and] truth.
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 made of a city an heap; [of] a defenced city a ruin: a palace of strangers to be no city; it shall never be built.
3 Tāpēc Tevi slavēs stipra tauta, varenu ļaužu pilsētas Tevi bīsies.
Therefore shall the strong people glorify thee, the city of the terrible 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.
For thou hast been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat, when the blast of the terrible ones [is] as a storm [against] the 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 noise of strangers, as the heat in a dry place; [even] the heat with the shadow of a cloud: the branch of the terrible ones shall be brought low.
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 in this mountain shall the LORD of hosts make unto all people a feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined.
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 will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering cast over all people, and the vail that is spread 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 will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the 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 it shall be said in that day, Lo, this [is] our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this [is] the LORD; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice 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 in this mountain shall the hand of the LORD rest, and Moab shall be trodden down under him, even as straw is trodden down for the dunghill.
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 spread forth his hands in the midst of them, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth [his hands] to swim: and he shall bring down their pride together with the spoils of their hands.
12 Un tavus augstos stipros pils mūrus Viņš gāzīs, pazemos un pīšļos metīs pie zemes.
And the fortress of the high fort of thy walls shall he bring down, lay low, [and] bring to the ground, [even] to the dust.
