Jesajas 43
1 Bet nu Tas Kungs, tavs Radītājs, Jēkab, un tavs darītājs, Israēl, saka tā: nebīsties, jo Es tevi esmu atpestījis, Es tevi esmu saucis pie tava vārda; tu esi Mans.
And now thus saith the Lord that created thee, O Jacob, and formed thee, O Israel: Fear not, for I have redeemed thee, and called thee by thy name: thou art mine.
2 Kad tu iesi caur ūdeņiem, tad Es būšu pie tevis, un caur upēm, tad tās tevi nepārplūdīs. Kad tu iesi caur uguni, tad tu nesadegsi, un liesma tevi neaizdedzinās.
When thou shalt pass through the waters, I will be with thee, and the rivers shall not cover thee: when thou shalt walk in the fire, thou shalt not be burnt, and the flames shall not burn in thee:
3 Jo Es esmu Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tas Svētais iekš Israēla, tavs Pestītājs. Ēģipti Es dodu par tavu izpirkšanas maksu, Moru zemi un Sabu tavā vietā.
For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I have given Egypt for thy atonement, Ethiopia and Saba for thee.
4 Tāpēc ka tu esi dārgs Manās acīs un cienīgs, un Es tevi mīļoju, Es esmu devis cilvēkus tavā vietā un tautas par tavu dvēseli.
Since thou becamest honourable in my eyes, thou art glorious: I have loved thee, and I will give men for thee, and people for thy life.
5 Nebīsties, jo Es esmu pie tevis, Es atvedīšu tavu dzimumu no rīta puses un tevi sapulcināšu no vakara puses.
Fear not, for I am with thee: I will. bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west.
6 Es sacīšu uz ziemeli: Dod šurp! Un uz dienvidu: Neaiztur! Atved Manus dēlus no tālienes un Manas meitas no zemes galiem,
I will say to the north: Give up: and to the south: Keep not back: bring my sons from afar, and my daughters from the ends of the earth.
7 Ikkatru, kas pēc Mana Vārda nosaukts, un ko Es esmu radījis Sev par godu, ko esmu taisījis un darījis.
And every one that calleth upon my name, I have created him for my glory, I have formed him, and made him.
8 Atved tos aklos ļaudis, kam tomēr acis, un tos kurlos, kam tomēr ausis.
Bring forth the people that are blind, and have eyes: that are deaf, and have ears.
9 Lai visi pagāni top sapulcināti, un tautas lai sanāk kopā. Kurš no tiem to stāstīs? Lai tie mums stāsta tās pagājušās lietas, lai tie atved savus lieciniekus un taisnojās, ka šie dzird un saka: Tas ir tiesa.
All the nations are assembled together, and the tribes are gathered: who among you can declare this, and shall make us hear the former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, let them be justified, and hear, and say: It is truth.
10 Jūs esat Mani liecinieki, saka Tas Kungs, un Mans kalps, ko esmu izredzējis, lai jūs atzīstat un Man ticat un saprotat, ka Es tas esmu. Priekš Manis neviens dievs nav bijis un pēc Manis neviens nebūs.
You are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen: that you may know, and believe me, and understand that I myself am. Before me there was no God formed, and after me there shall be none.
11 Es, Es esmu Tas Kungs, un Pestītāja nav kā vien Es.
I am, I am the Lord: and there is no saviour besides me.
12 Es esmu pasludinājis, Es esmu palīdzējis, Es esmu zināmu darījis, un sveša(dieva) nebija jūsu starpā. Un jūs esat Mani liecinieki, saka Tas Kungs, ka Es esmu Dievs.
I have declared, and have saved. I have made it heard, and there was no strange one among you. You are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and I am God.
13 Arī no šīs dienas Es esmu tas pats, un neviena nav, kas var izglābt no Manas rokas; ko Es daru, kas to var novērst?
And from the beginning I am the same, and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall turn it away?
14 Tā saka Tas Kungs, jūsu Pestītājs, tas Svētais iekš Israēla: jūsu dēļ Es uz Bābeli esmu sūtījis un visus Kaldejus aizdzinis, ka bija jābēg ar tām laivām, ar kurām bija līksmojušies.
Thus saith the Lord your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: For your sake I sent to Babylon, and have brought down all their bars, and the Chaldeans glorying in their ships.
15 Es esmu Tas Kungs, jūsu Svētais, Israēla Radītājs, jūsu ķēniņš!
I am the Lord your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your King.
16 Tā saka Tas Kungs, kas ceļu darījis jūrā un teku stipros ūdeņos,
Thus saith the Lord, who made a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters.
17 Kas izved ratus un zirgus, kara pulku un spēku, - kopā tie ir apgūlušies, tie necelsies atkal augšām, tie ir izdzēsti, kā dakts tie ir izdzisuši.
Who brought forth the chariot and the horse, the army and the strong: they lay down to sleep together, and they shall not rise again: they are broken as flax, and are extinct.
18 Nepieminiet tās vecās lietas un nedomājiet vairs uz to, kas pagājis.
Remember not former things, and look not on things of old.
19 Redzi, Es daru jaunas lietas; jau plaukst, jūs to atzīsiet; Es darīšu ceļu tuksnesī un upes tukšās vietās.
Behold I do new things, and now they shall spring forth, verily you shall know them: I will make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
20 Zvēri laukā Mani godās, šakāļi un strausi, jo Es ūdeni došu tuksnesī un upes tukšā vietā, dzirdināt Savus ļaudis, Savus izredzētos.
The beast of the field shall glorify me, the dragons and the ostriches: because I have given waters in the wilderness, rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, to my chosen.
21 Šos ļaudis Es Sev esmu radījis, tie teiks Manu slavu.
This people have I formed for myself, they shall shew forth my praise.
22 Un tu Mani neesi piesaucis, Jēkab, nedz Manis pēc pūlējies, Israēl!
But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob, neither hast thou laboured about me, O Israel.
23 Tu Man neesi atnesis savu dedzināmo upuru avis, nedz Mani godājis ar saviem kaujamiem upuriem. Es tevi neesmu kalpinājis ar ēdamiem upuriem, nedz tevi apgrūtinājis ar vīraku.
Thou hast not offered me the ram of thy holocaust, nor hast thou glorified me with thy victims: I have not caused thee to serve with oblations, nor wearied thee with incense.
24 Tu Man neesi par naudu pircis smaržīgas kalmes un neesi Mani mielojis ar savu upuru taukiem. Bet tu Mani esi kalpinājis ar saviem grēkiem, tu Mani esi apgrūtinājis ar saviem noziegumiem.
Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy victims. But thou hast made me to serve with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thy iniquities.
25 Es, Es tas esmu, kas izdeldu tavus pārkāpumus Sevis dēļ un nepieminu tavus grēkus.
I am, I am he that blot out thy iniquities for my own sake, and I will not remember thy sins.
26 Atgādini Mani, lai mēs kopā tiesājamies, teic jel, kā tu vari taisnoties.
Put me in remembrance, and let us plead together: tell if thou hast any thing to justify thyself.
27 Tavs pirmais tēvs ir grēkojis un tavi aizstāvētāji pret Mani noziegušies.
Thy brat father sinned, and thy teachers have transgressed against me.
28 Tāpēc Es esmu licis negodā svētuma virsniekus un Jēkabu nodevis lāstam un Israēli kaunam.
And I have profaned the holy princes, I have given Jacob to slaughter, and Israel to reproach.
