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.
Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim, whose glorious beauty [is] a fading flower; who [are] on the head of the rich valleys of them that are overcome with wine!
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.
Behold, the LORD hath a mighty and strong one, [which] as a tempest of hail [and] a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overflowing, shall cast down to the earth with the hand.
3 Kājām samīs to kroni, ar ko lepojās Efraīma piedzērušies.
The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim shall be trodden under feet.
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 glorious beauty, which [is] on the head of the rich valley, shall be a fading flower, [and] as the early fruit before the summer; which, [when] he that looketh upon it, seeth while it is yet in his hand he eateth it up.
5 Tai dienā Tas Kungs Cebaot būs par skaistu kroni un par krāšņu vainagu Savu ļaužu atlikumam,
In that day will the LORD of hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty, to the residue 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 for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for strength to them that turn the battle to the gate.
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.
But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are overwhelmed with wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble [in] judgment.
8 Jo visi galdi ir pilni netīru vēmekļu, ka vietas vairs nav.
For all tables are full of vomit [and] filthiness, [so that there is] no place [clean].
9 Kam tad tas atzīšanu mācīs, un kam tas mācību darīs zināmu? Tiem no piena atradinātiem, tiem no krūtīm nošķirtiem?
Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? [them that are] weaned from the milk, [and] drawn from the breasts.
10 Jo (tie saka: ) pavēli uz pavēli, pavēli uz pavēli, likumu uz likumu, likumu uz likumu, maķenīt še, maķenīt te!
For precept [must be] upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, [and] there a little:
11 Tāpēc ar lūpām, kas stostās, un ar svešu mēli viņš runās uz šiem ļaudīm, kam viņš bija sacījis:
For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak 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 [with which] ye may cause the weary to rest; and this [is] the refreshing: yet they would not hear.
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.
But the word of the LORD was to them, precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, [and] there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
14 Tādēļ klausiet Tā Kunga vārdu, jūs mēdītāji, kas valda pār šiem Jeruzālemes ļaudīm.
Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which [is] 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 ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we in agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not reach us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves: (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.
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner [stone], a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
17 Un Es iecelšu tiesu par mēru un taisnību par svaru, un krusa aizraus to melu patvērumu, un ūdens pārpludinās to slēpšanas vietu.
Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding-place.
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 your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it. (Sheol h7585)
19 Cikkārt tās nāks, tās jūs aizraus, jo ik rītu tās nāks, dienu nakti. Tikai briesmas būs, dzirdēt to sludināšanu.
From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only [to] understand the report.
20 Jo gulta ir īsa, ka nevar izstiepties, un apsegs šaurs, ka nevar ietīties.
For the bed is shorter than that [a man] can stretch himself [on it]: and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself [in it].
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 rise as [on] mount Perazim, he will be wroth as [in] the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange 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.
Now therefore be ye not mockers, lest your bands be made strong: for I have heard from the LORD God of hosts a consumption, even determined upon the whole earth.
23 Griežat šurp ausis un klausiet manu balsi, ņemiet vērā un klausiet, ko es runāju.
Give ye ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech.
24 Vai tad arājs vienmēr ars, kad grib sēt, kārtos un ecēs savu zemi?
Doth the plowman plow all day to sow? doth he open and break the clods of his ground?
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 he hath made even the face of it, doth he not cast abroad the vetches, and scatter the cummin, and cast in the principal wheat, and the appointed barley, and the rye in their place?
26 Un viņa Dievs viņam rādījis, kā piederas, un viņu pamācījis.
For his God doth instruct him to discretion, [and] doth teach him.
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 vetches are not threshed with a threshing instrument, neither is a cart-wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the vetches are beaten out with a staff, and the cummin with a rod.
28 Vai maizes labība top sagrūsta? Nē, to nesakuļ pavisam; to izkuļ ar saviem bluķiem un zirgiem, bet nesagrūž.
Bread -[corn] is bruised; because he will not always be threshing it, nor break [it with] the wheel of his cart, nor bruise it [with] his horsemen.
29 Arī tas nāk no Tā Kunga Cebaot, Viņš ir brīnišķīgs padomā un liels gudrībā.
This also cometh forth from the LORD of hosts, [who] is wonderful in counsel, [and] excellent in operation.
