Jesajas 31
1 Ak vai, tiem, kas uz Ēģipti iet pēc palīdzības un paļaujas uz zirgiem un cerē uz ratiem, tāpēc ka to ir daudz, un uz jātniekiem, tāpēc ka to ir liels pulks, bet uz to Svēto iekš Israēla nerauga un To Kungu nemeklē.
Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help, trusting in horses, and putting their confidence in chariots, because they me many: and in horsemen, because they me very strong: and have not trusted in the Holy One of Israel, and have not sought after the Lord.
2 Bet arī Viņš ir gudrs un liek ļaunumam nākt un neņem atpakaļ Savus vārdus, bet ceļas pret bezdievīgo namu un pret ļauna darītāju palīgu.
But he that is the wise one hath brought evil, and hath not removed his words: and he will rise up against the house of the wicked, and against the aid of them that work iniquity.
3 Jo ēģiptieši ir cilvēki un ne Dievs, un viņu zirgi ir miesa un ne gars. Un Tas Kungs izstieps Savu roku, un tas palīgs klūp un, kam top līdzēts, tas krīt, un tie visi kopā iet bojā.
Egypt is man, and not God: and their horses, flesh, and not spirit: and the Lord shall put down his hand, and the helper shall fall, and he that is helped shall fall, and they shall all be confounded together.
4 Jo tā Tas Kungs uz mani sacījis: tā kā lauva un kā jauns lauva rūc par savu laupījumu, un, jebšu pret viņu liels ganu pulks top sasaukts, tomēr viņš neizbīstas priekš viņu balss un nebaidās no viņa lielā pulka, tāpat Tas Kungs Cebaot nolaidīsies, karot uz Ciānas kalna un uz viņas augstuma.
For thus saith the Lord to me: Like as the lion roareth, and the lion’s whelp upon his prey, and when a multitude of shepherds shall come against him, he will not fear at their voice, nor be afraid of their multitude: so shall the Lord of hosts come down to fight upon mount Sion, and upon the hill thereof.
5 Tā kā putni lidinājās, tāpat Tas Kungs Cebaot apklās Jeruzālemi, un apklādams izpestīs un žēlodams izglābs.
As birds dying, so will the Lord of hosts protect Jerusalem, protecting and delivering, passing over and saving.
6 Atgriežaties, Israēla bērni, pie Tā, no kā tik tālu esat atkāpušies.
Return as you had deeply revolted, O children of Israel.
7 Jo tai dienā tie atmetīs ikkatrs savus sudraba elkus un savus zelta elkus, ko jūsu rokas ir taisījušas sev par grēku.
For in that day a man shall cast away his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which your hands have made for you to sin.
8 Un Asurs kritīs caur zobenu, bet ne caur vīra zobenu, un to norīs, bet ne cilvēka zobens, un tas bēgs no zobena un viņa jaunekļi paliks par vergiem.
And the Assyrian shall fall by the sword not of a man, and the sword not of a man shall devour him, and he shall flee not at the face of the sword: and his young men shall be tributaries.
9 Un viņa kalns trīcēs no bailēm, un viņa lielkungi iztrūcināti bēgs no karoga; to saka Tas Kungs, kam Ciānā uguns un Jeruzālemē ugunskurs.
And his strength shall pass away with dread, and his princes fleeing shall be afraid: the Lord hath said it, whose die is in Sion, and his furnace in Jerusalem.
