Jesajas 42
1 Redzi, Tas ir Mans kalps, kam Es palīdzu, Manis izredzēts, pie kā Manai dvēselei labs prāts. Es savu Garu esmu licis uz Viņu, tautām iznest tiesu.
Behold My servant, whom I uphold; Mine elect, in whom My soul delighteth; I have put My spirit upon him, he shall make the right to go forth to the nations.
2 Viņš nebrēks nedz pacels Savu balsi, un Viņa balsi nedzirdēs pa ielām.
He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street.
3 Ielūzušu niedri Viņš nesalauzīs un kvēlošu dakti Viņš neizdzēsīs, Viņš tiesu nesīs ar patiesību.
A bruised reed shall he not break, and the dimly burning wick shall he not quench; he shall make the right to go forth according to the truth.
4 Viņš nenogurs un nesalūzīs, kamēr iecels tiesu virs zemes, un jūras salas cerēs uz Viņa bauslību.
He shall not fail nor be crushed, till he have set the right in the earth; and the isles shall wait for his teaching.
5 Tā saka Dievs, Tas Kungs, kas debesis radījis un izplāta, kas zemi izklājis ar viņas augļiem, kas dvašu dod tiem ļaudīm, kas tur mīt, un garu tiem, kas virs tās staigā.
Thus saith God the LORD, He that created the heavens, and stretched them forth, He that spread forth the earth and that which cometh out of it, He that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:
6 “Es Tas Kungs Tevi esmu aicinājis iekš taisnības un Tevi satveru pie Tavas rokas un Tevi pasargāju un Tevi ieceļu par derību ļaudīm, par gaišumu pagāniem,
I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and have taken hold of thy hand, and kept thee, and set thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the nations;
7 Atvērt akliem acis un saistītos izvest no cietuma un no cietuma nama tos, kas sēž tumsībā.
To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the dungeon, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison-house.
8 Es esmu Tas Kungs, tas ir Mans vārds, un Savu godu Es citam nedošu, nedz Savu slavu elkiem.
I am the LORD, that is My name; and My glory will I not give to another, neither My praise to graven images.
9 Redzi, kas papriekš sludināts, tas ir noticis, un jaunu Es stāstu; pirms tas izplaukst, Es jums to dodu dzirdēt.”
Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare; before they spring forth I tell you of them.
10 Dziediet Tam Kungam jaunu dziesmu, Viņa slavu no zemes galiem; jūras braucēji ar viņas pilnumu, salas ar saviem iedzīvotājiem.
Sing unto the LORD a new song, and His praise from the end of the earth; ye that go down to the sea, and all that is therein, the isles, and the inhabitants thereof.
11 Tuksnesis un viņa pilsētas lai paceļ balsi, un ciemi, kur Ķedars dzīvo; lai gavilē, kas dzīvo klints kalnos, lai tie sauc no kalnu galiem.
Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar doth inhabit; let the inhabitants of Sela exult, let them shout from the top of the mountains.
12 Lai Tam Kungam dod godu un lai pasludina Viņa slavu salās.
Let them give glory unto the LORD, and declare His praise in the islands.
13 Tas Kungs iziet kā varonis, kā karavīrs Viņš iekarsis dusmās; Viņš sauc, Viņš kliedz, Saviem ienaidniekiem Viņš rādās varens.
The LORD will go forth as a mighty man, He will stir up jealousy like a man of war; He will cry, yea, He will shout aloud, He will prove Himself mighty against His enemies.
14 Sen laiku Es esmu klusu cietis, esmu klusu bijis un savaldījies. Bet nu Es brēkšu, kā sieva, kas dzemdē, elzdams un pūzdams ar varu.
I have long time held My peace, I have been still, and refrained Myself; now will I cry like a travailing woman, gasping and panting at once.
15 Es postīšu kalnus un pakalnus un likšu sakalst visam viņu zaļumam un darīšu upes par salām, un izžāvēšu ezerus.
I will make waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs; and I will make the rivers islands, and will dry up the pools.
16 Un Es vadīšu aklus pa ceļu, ko tie nav zinājuši, Es tiem likšu staigāt pa tekām, ko tie nav pazinuši, Es darīšu tumsību priekš viņu acīm par gaismu un nelīdzenumu par līdzenumu. Tā Es darīšu un tos neatstāšu.
And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not, in paths that they knew not will I lead them; I will make darkness light before them, and rugged places plain. These things will I do, and I will not leave them undone.
17 Bet atpakaļ būs griezties un palikt visiem kaunā, kas paļaujas uz elkiem un saka uz lietām bildēm: Jūs esat mūsu dievi.
They shall be turned back, greatly ashamed, that trust in graven images, that say unto molten images: 'Ye are our gods.'
18 Klausāties, kurlie, un skatāties, aklie, un redziet.
Hear, ye deaf, and look, ye blind, that ye may see.
19 Kas ir tik akls kā Mans kalps un tik kurls kā Mans vēstnesis, ko Es sūtu? Kas ir tik akls kā Tas mīļais, un tik akls kā Tā Kunga kalps?
Who is blind, but My servant? Or deaf, as My messenger that I send? Who is blind as he that is wholehearted, and blind as the LORD'S servant?
20 Tu esi daudz redzējis, bet neesi ievērojis, ausis atdarījis, bet viņš nedzird.
Seeing many things, thou observest not; opening the ears, he heareth not.
21 Tam Kungam bija labs prāts Savas taisnības dēļ, dot lielu un augstu bauslību.
The LORD was pleased, for His righteousness' sake, to make the teaching great and glorious.
22 Bet tie ir postīti un aplaupīti ļaudis, visi saistīti alās un apslēpti cietuma namos, tie ir palikuši par laupījumu, un nav neviena, kas tos izglābj, par postījumu, un nav neviena, kas saka: Atdod atpakaļ.
But this is a people robbed and spoiled, they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison-houses; they are for a prey, and none delivereth, for a spoil, and none saith: 'Restore.'
23 Kas jūsu starpā to liek vērā, kas uzmana un klausās, kas pēc būs?
Who among you will give ear to this? Who will hearken and hear for the time to come?
24 Kas Jēkabu nodeva uz postu un Israēli laupītājiem? Vai ne Tas Kungs, pret ko esam grēkojuši? - Jo tie negribēja staigāt Viņa ceļos un neklausīja Viņa bauslībai.
Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? Did not the LORD? He against whom we have sinned, and in whose ways they would not walk, neither were they obedient unto His law.
25 Tāpēc Viņš pār tiem ir izgāzis Savas dusmības bardzību un kara briesmas, ka visapkārt dega; bet tie to neatzina, - un Viņš tos iededzināja, bet tie to neņēma pie sirds.
Therefore He poured upon him the fury of His anger, and the strength of battle; and it set him on fire round about, yet he knew not, and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart.
