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 fell sick unto death; and there came unto him Isaiah the son of Amoz, the prophet, and said unto him, Thus hath said the Lord, Give thy charge to thy house; for thou shalt die, and not live.
2 Tad Hizkija savu vaigu pagrieza pret sienu un pielūdza To Kungu un sacīja:
Then did Hezekiah turn his face to the wall, and prayed unto the Lord.
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 he said, O Lord, I beseech thee remember now that I have walked before thee in truth, and with an undivided heart, and have done what is good in thy eyes. And Hezekiah wept aloud.
4 Tad Tā Kunga vārds tā notika uz Jesaju:
Then came the word of the Lord 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 hath said the Lord, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto thy days fifteen years.
6 Un tevi un šo pilsētu es izpestīšu no Asīrijas ķēniņa rokas un pasargāšu šo pilsētu.
And out of the hand of the king of Assyria will I deliver thee and this city; and I will shield this city.
7 Un šī būs tā zīme no Tā Kunga, ka Tas Kungs šo lietu darīs, ko Viņš runājis:
And this shall be unto thee the sign from the Lord, that the Lord will do this thing which he hath 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 of the degrees, which is gone down on the dial of Achaz by the sun, to return backward ten degrees. So the sun returned ten degrees, by the degrees which he was gone down.
9 Šis ir Hizkijas, Jūda ķēniņa, raksts, kad viņš bija slims bijis un no savas slimības palicis vesels.
The writing of Hezekiah the 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 had said, In the midst of my days, must I enter the gates of the nether world; 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 had said, I shall not see the Lord, the Lord, in the land of the living: I shall not behold man any more among the inhabitants of the regions of death.
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 broken down, and is removed from me as a shepherd's tent: I have cut off, like a weaver, my life; with pining sickness will he snatch me away: from day until night wilt thou 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 waited [with patience] till morning, [whether] as a lion, so would he break all my bones: from day until night wilt 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 did I chirp; I did moan like a dove; my eyes were lifted up on high: O Lord, I am oppressed; grant me ease.
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 speak? he hath promised it unto me, and he hath also accomplished it; I will make pilgrimages [to God's house] 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] will live, and in all these [things] is the life of my spirit: so wilt thou give me health, and cause 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 hast, in loving my soul, delivered it from the pit of corruption; for thou hast cast behind thy back all my sins.
18 Jo elle Tevi neteic, un nāve Tevi neslavē; tie, kas grimst bedrē, necerē uz Tavu patiesību. (Sheol h7585)
For the nether world will not thank thee, death will not praise thee: they that go down into the pit will not 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 alone shall thank thee, like me this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth.
20 Tas Kungs ir man par pestīšanu, un mēs dziedāsim savas dziesmas, kamēr dzīvosim Tā Kunga namā.
The Lord is there to help me; therefore we will play my hymns all the days of our life in the house of the Lord.
21 Un Jesaja sacīja: Lai ņem vienu vīģu rausi un liek plāksteri uz to trumu, tad viņš paliks vesels.
And Isaiah had said, Let them take a lump of figs, and lay it for a plaster upon the inflammation, and he shall recover.
22 Un Hizkija sacīja: Kāda ir tā zīme, ka es noiešu Tā Kunga namā?
And Hezekiah had said, What is the sign that I shall go up to the house of the Lord?
