Jesajas 28
1 Ak vai, tam kronim, ar ko lepojās Efraīma piedzērušies, vai tai savītušai puķei, viņu goda glītumam, kas pušķo bagātās ielejas galvu tiem, kas vīna pārvarēti.
Ho! crown of pride of those who are given up to wine in Ephraim, and the dead flower of his glory which is on the head of those who are overcome by strong drink!
2 Redzi, viens stiprs un varens no Tā Kunga tā kā barga krusa, kā briesmīga vētra, tā kā vareni ūdens plūdi, kas varen uzplūst, tā Viņš gāzīs pie zemes ar varu.
See, the Lord has a strong and cruel one; like a rain of ice, a storm of destruction, like the overflowing of a strong river, he will violently overcome them.
3 Kājām samīs to kroni, ar ko lepojās Efraīma piedzērušies.
The crown of pride of those who are given up to wine in Ephraim will be crushed under foot;
4 Un tai vīstošai puķei, viņu goda glītumam, kas pušķo tās bagātās ielejas galvu, notiek kā agri ienākušai vīģei priekš lasāmā laika; tiklīdz kas to redz un dabū savā rokā, tas to tūdaļ apēd.
And the dead flower of his glory, which is on the head of the fertile valley, will be like the first early fruit before the summer; which a man takes and puts in his mouth the minute he sees it.
5 Tai dienā Tas Kungs Cebaot būs par skaistu kroni un par krāšņu vainagu Savu ļaužu atlikumam,
In that day will the Lord of armies be a crown of glory, and a fair ornament, to the rest of his people;
6 Un par tiesas Garu tiem, kas sēž tiesas amatā, un par stiprumu tiem, kas karu(ienaidu) dzen atpakaļ līdz vārtiem.
And a spirit of wisdom to the judge, and strength to those who keep back the attackers at the door of the town.
7 Bet arī šie streipuļo no vīna un sajukuši no stipra dzēriena. Priesteris un pravietis streipuļo no stipra dzēriena, tie ir vīna pārvarēti, tie sajukuši no stipra dzēriena, tie streipuļo pie parādīšanām un klūp tiesu spriezdami.
And further, these are uncertain through wine, and have gone out of the right way through strong drink: the priest and the prophet are uncertain through strong drink, they are overcome by wine, they have gone out of the way through strong drink; their vision is false, they go wrong in their decisions.
8 Jo visi galdi ir pilni netīru vēmekļu, ka vietas vairs nav.
For all the tables are covered with coughed-up food, so that there is not a clean place.
9 Kam tad tas atzīšanu mācīs, un kam tas mācību darīs zināmu? Tiem no piena atradinātiem, tiem no krūtīm nošķirtiem?
To whom will he give knowledge? and to whom will he make clear the word? Will it be to those who have newly given up milk, and who have only now been taken from the breast?
10 Jo (tie saka: ) pavēli uz pavēli, pavēli uz pavēli, likumu uz likumu, likumu uz likumu, maķenīt še, maķenīt te!
For it is one rule after another; one line after another; here a little, there a little.
11 Tāpēc ar lūpām, kas stostās, un ar svešu mēli viņš runās uz šiem ļaudīm, kam viņš bija sacījis:
No, but with broken talk, and with a strange tongue, he will give his word to this people:
12 „Še ir dusa, dodiet piekusušam atpūsties! Un še ir atspirgšana, “- bet tie to negribēja dzirdēt.
To whom he said, This is the rest, give rest to him who is tired; and by this you may get new strength; but they would not give ear.
13 Tādēļ tiem notiks Tā Kunga vārds: pavēli uz pavēli, pavēli uz pavēli, likumu uz likumu, likumu uz likumu, maķenīt še, maķenīt te, ka tie ies un atpakaļ kritīs un sadauzīsies un taps savaldzināti un sagūstīti.
For this cause the word of the Lord will be to them rule after rule, line after line, here a little, there a little; so that they may go on their way, and falling back may be broken, and taken in the net.
14 Tādēļ klausiet Tā Kunga vārdu, jūs mēdītāji, kas valda pār šiem Jeruzālemes ļaudīm.
Give ear then to the word of the Lord, you men of pride, the rulers of this people in Jerusalem:
15 Jo jūs sakāt, mēs derību esam derējuši ar nāvi un esam saderējušies ar elli; lai arī tādas pātagas nāk kā plūdi, tomēr tās mūs neaizņems; jo melus esam likuši sev par patvērumu, un apakš viltus esam apslēpušies. (Sheol h7585)
Because you have said, We have made death our friend, and with the underworld we have made an agreement; when the overflowing waters come through they will not come near us; for we are looking to false words for help, taking cover in what is untrue: (Sheol h7585)
16 Tādēļ tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: redzi, Es esmu, kas Ciānā liek pamata akmeni, izraudzītu akmeni, dārgu stūra akmeni, kas it stipri nolikts: kas tic, tas nebēgs.
For this cause says the Lord God, See, I am placing in Zion as a base, a stone, a tested stone, an angle-stone which is certain and of great value: and he who has faith will not give way.
17 Un Es iecelšu tiesu par mēru un taisnību par svaru, un krusa aizraus to melu patvērumu, un ūdens pārpludinās to slēpšanas vietu.
And I will make right decision the measuring-line, and righteousness the weight: and the ice-storm will take away the safe place of false words, and the secret place will be covered by the flowing waters.
18 Un jūsu derība ar nāvi taps iznīcināta, un jūsu līgums ar elli, tas nepastāvēs. Kad tās pātagas nāks kā plūdi, tad jūs no tām tapsiet samīti. (Sheol h7585)
And the help you were looking for from death will come to nothing, and your agreement with the underworld will be broken; when the overflowing waters come through, then you will be overcome by them. (Sheol h7585)
19 Cikkārt tās nāks, tās jūs aizraus, jo ik rītu tās nāks, dienu nakti. Tikai briesmas būs, dzirdēt to sludināšanu.
Whenever they come through they will overtake you; for they will come through morning after morning, by day and by night: and the news will be nothing but fear.
20 Jo gulta ir īsa, ka nevar izstiepties, un apsegs šaurs, ka nevar ietīties.
For the bed is not long enough for a man to be stretched out on: and the cover is not wide enough for him to be covered with.
21 Jo Tas Kungs tāpat celsies kā pie Pracim kalna, Viņš tāpat dusmosies kā Gibeonas ielejā, Savu darbu darīt, - Viņa darbs būs dīvains, un Savu strādāšanu pastrādāt, Viņa strādāšana būs dīvaina.
For the Lord will come up as on Mount Perazim, he will be moved to wrath as in the valley of Gibeon; so that he may do his work — strange is his work; and give effect to his act — unnatural is his act.
22 Nu tad, nemēdiet vairs, ka jūsu saites netop cietākas, jo es esmu dzirdējis izdeldēšanu, noliktu no Tā Kunga Dieva Cebaot pār visu zemi.
And now, take care that you do not make sport of him, or your bands will be made strong; for I have had word from the Lord, the Lord of armies, of an end, of a complete end, which is to come on all the land.
23 Griežat šurp ausis un klausiet manu balsi, ņemiet vērā un klausiet, ko es runāju.
Let your ears be open to my voice; give attention to what I say.
24 Vai tad arājs vienmēr ars, kad grib sēt, kārtos un ecēs savu zemi?
Is the ploughman for ever ploughing? does he not get the earth ready and broken up for the seed?
25 Vai nav tā? Kad viņš to virsu ir līdzinājis, tad kaisa dilles un met ķimenes, vai sēj kviešus pēc kārtas, vai miežus, vai rudzus, ikkatru savā vietā.
When the face of the earth has been levelled, does he not put in the different sorts of seed, and the grain in lines, and the barley in its place, and the spelt at the edge?
26 Un viņa Dievs viņam rādījis, kā piederas, un viņu pamācījis.
For his God is his teacher, giving him the knowledge of these things.
27 Jo dilles netop kultas ar ruļļiem, nedz bluķi top vesti pār ķimenēm, bet dilles top kultas ar spriguli, un ķimenes ar kulstekli.
For the fitches are not crushed with a sharp instrument, and a cart-wheel is not rolled over the cummin; but the grain of the fitches is hammered out with a stick, and of the cummin with a rod.
28 Vai maizes labība top sagrūsta? Nē, to nesakuļ pavisam; to izkuļ ar saviem bluķiem un zirgiem, bet nesagrūž.
Is the grain for bread crushed? He does not go on crushing it for ever, but he lets his cart-wheels and his horses go over it without crushing it.
29 Arī tas nāk no Tā Kunga Cebaot, Viņš ir brīnišķīgs padomā un liels gudrībā.
This comes from the Lord of armies, purposing wonders, and wise in all his acts.
