Jesajas 38
1 Tanī laikā Hizkija palika slims uz miršanu, un pravietis Jesaja, Amoca dēls, nāca pie tā un uz to sacīja: Tā saka Tas Kungs: Apkopi savu namu, jo tu mirsi un nepaliksi vesels.
In those days Hezekiah was sick to death. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came to him, and said to him, Thus says Jehovah, Set thy house in order, for thou shall die, and not live.
2 Tad Hizkija savu vaigu pagrieza pret sienu un pielūdza To Kungu un sacīja:
Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall, and prayed to Jehovah,
3 Ak Kungs, piemini jel, ka es Tavā priekšā esmu staigājis patiesībā no visas sirds un darījis, kas Tev patīk. Un Hizkija raudāja gauži.
and said, Remember now, O Jehovah, I beseech thee, how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept greatly.
4 Tad Tā Kunga vārds tā notika uz Jesaju:
Then the word of Jehovah came to Isaiah, saying,
5 Ej un saki Hizkijam: Tā saka Tas Kungs, tava tēva Dāvida Dievs: Es tavu lūgšanu esmu klausījis, Es tavas asaras esmu redzējis. Redzi, Es tavām dienām pielikšu vēl piecpadsmit gadus.
Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus says Jehovah, the God of David thy father. I have heard thy prayer. I have seen thy tears. Behold, I will add to thy days fifteen years.
6 Un tevi un šo pilsētu es izpestīšu no Asīrijas ķēniņa rokas un pasargāšu šo pilsētu.
And I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria, and I will defend this city.
7 Un šī būs tā zīme no Tā Kunga, ka Tas Kungs šo lietu darīs, ko Viņš runājis:
And this shall be the sign to thee from Jehovah, that Jehovah will do this thing that he has spoken:
8 Redzi, tai ēnai, kas ar sauli pa tiem kāpieniem pie Ahaza saules stundeņa uz priekšu gājusi, Es likšu iet atpakaļ desmit kāpienus. Un saule gāja atpakaļ desmit kāpienus pa tiem pašiem kāpieniem, kā tā bija gājusi uz priekšu.
Behold, I will cause the shadow on the steps, which has gone down on the dial of Ahaz with the sun, to return backward ten steps. So the sun returned ten steps on the dial on which it had gone down.
9 Šis ir Hizkijas, Jūda ķēniņa, raksts, kad viņš bija slims bijis un no savas slimības palicis vesels.
The writing of Hezekiah king of Judah when he had been sick, and was recovered of his sickness:
10 Es sacīju: Pašās savās labākās dienās man jānokāpj kapa vārtos, mani atliekamie gadi man top atņemti. (Sheol h7585)
I said, In the noontide of my days I shall go into the gates of Sheol. I am deprived of the residue of my years. (Sheol h7585)
11 Es sacīju: Es vairs neredzēšu To Kungu, To Kungu tai zemē, kur tie dzīvie, es vairs neieraudzīšu cilvēkus tai vietā, kur tie aizmigušie mājo.
I said, I shall not see Jehovah, even Jehovah in the land of the living. I shall behold man no more with the inhabitants of the world.
12 Mans nams top noplēsts un aizcelts, kā ganu būdiņa; es savu dzīvību satinu kā audējs (savu audekli). Viņš mani nogriež kā no riestavas. Pirms nakts metās, Tu man dari galu.
My dwelling is removed, and is carried away from me as a shepherd's tent. I have rolled up, like a weaver, my life. He will cut me off from the loom. From day even to night thou will make an end of me.
13 Es gaidīju līdz rītam, bet kā lauva Viņš salauž visus manus kaulus. Pirms nakts metās, Tu man darīsi galu.
I quieted myself until morning. As a lion, so he breaks all my bones. From day even to night will thou make an end of me.
14 Es kliedzu kā dzērve un bezdelīga, es vaidēju kā balodis, manas acis nogura uz augšu skatoties. Ak Kungs, man ir bail, izpestī mani!
Like a swallow or a crane, so I chattered. I moaned as a dove. My eyes fail with looking upward. O Lord, I am oppressed, be thou my surety.
15 Ko lai es saku? Kā viņš man solījis, tā viņš ir darījis; klusu es nu staigāšu visu savu mūžu manas dvēseles skumju dēļ.
What shall I say? He has both spoken to me, and himself has done it. I shall go softly all my years because of the bitterness of my soul.
16 Ak Kungs! No tā cilvēks atdzīvojās, un iekš tā visa stāv mana gara dzīvība, Tu mani atspirdzināsi un mani atkal darīsi dzīvu.
O Lord, by these things men live, and wholly therein is the life of my spirit. Therefore recover thou me, and make me to live.
17 Redzi, rūgtums palicis man par svētību, pats rūgtums, bet Tu manu dvēseli mīlīgi esi apkampis, ka tā nenāktu trūdēšanas bedrē, jo Tu visus manus grēkus esi metis aiz Sevi.
Behold, for peace I had great bitterness. But thou have by love for my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption. For thou have cast all my sins behind thy back.
18 Jo elle Tevi neteic, un nāve Tevi neslavē; tie, kas grimst bedrē, necerē uz Tavu patiesību. (Sheol h7585)
For Sheol cannot praise thee, death cannot celebrate thee. Those who go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth. (Sheol h7585)
19 Tie dzīvie, tie dzīvie, tie Tevi slavē, kā es šodien; tēvs bērniem dara zināmu Tavu patiesību.
The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I do this day. The father to the sons shall make known thy truth.
20 Tas Kungs ir man par pestīšanu, un mēs dziedāsim savas dziesmas, kamēr dzīvosim Tā Kunga namā.
Jehovah is ready to save me. Therefore we will sing my songs with stringed instruments all the days of our life in the house of Jehovah.
21 Un Jesaja sacīja: Lai ņem vienu vīģu rausi un liek plāksteri uz to trumu, tad viņš paliks vesels.
Now Isaiah had said, Let them take a cake of figs, and lay it for a plaster upon the boil, and he shall recover.
22 Un Hizkija sacīja: Kāda ir tā zīme, ka es noiešu Tā Kunga namā?
Hezekiah also had said, What is the sign that I shall go up to the house of Jehovah?
