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 says the Lord God that made you, O Jacob, and formed you, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed you, I have called you [by] your name; you are 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.
And if you pass through water, I am with you; and the rivers shall not overflow you: and if you go through fire, you shall not be burned; the flame shall not burn you.
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 your God, the Holy One of Israel, that saves you: I have made Egypt and Ethiopia your ransom, and [given] Soene for you.
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 you became precious in my sight, you have become glorious, and I have loved you: and I will give men for you, and princes for your 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 you: I will bring your seed from the east, and will gather you 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, Bring; and to the south, Keep not back; bring my sons from the [land] afar off, 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.
[even] all who are called by my name: for I have prepared him for my glory, and I have formed him, and have made him:
8 Atved tos aklos ļaudis, kam tomēr acis, un tos kurlos, kam tomēr ausis.
and I have brought forth the blind people; for [their] eyes are alike blind, and they that have ears are deaf.
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 gathered together, and princes shall be gathered out of them: who will declare these things? or who will declare to you things from the beginning? let them bring forth their witnesses, and be justified; and let them hear, and declare the 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.
Be you my witnesses, and I [too am] a witness, says the Lord God, and my servant whom I have chosen: that you may know, and believe, and understand that I am [he]: before me there was no other God, and after me there shall be none.
11 Es, Es esmu Tas Kungs, un Pestītāja nav kā vien Es.
I am God; and beside me there is no Saviour.
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 reproached, and there was no strange [god] among you: you are my witnesses, and I am the Lord 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?
even from the beginning; and there is none that can deliver out of my hands: I will work, and who shall turn it back?
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 says the Lord God that redeems you, the Holy One of Israel; for your sakes I will send to Babylon, and I will stir up all that flee, and the Chaldeans shall be bound in ships.
15 Es esmu Tas Kungs, jūsu Svētais, Israēla Radītājs, jūsu ķēniņš!
I am the Lord God, your Holy One, who have appointed for Israel your king.
16 Tā saka Tas Kungs, kas ceļu darījis jūrā un teku stipros ūdeņos,
Thus says the Lord, who makes a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty water;
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 chariots and horse, and a mighty multitude: but they have lain down, and shall not rise: they are extinct, as quenched flax.
18 Nepieminiet tās vecās lietas un nedomājiet vairs uz to, kas pagājis.
Remember you not the former things, and consider not the ancient things.
19 Redzi, Es daru jaunas lietas; jau plaukst, jūs to atzīsiet; Es darīšu ceļu tuksnesī un upes tukšās vietās.
Behold, I [will] do new things, which shall presently spring forth, and you shall know them: and I will make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the dry land.
20 Zvēri laukā Mani godās, šakāļi un strausi, jo Es ūdeni došu tuksnesī un upes tukšā vietā, dzirdināt Savus ļaudis, Savus izredzētos.
the beasts of the field shall bless me, the owls and young ostriches; for I have given water in the wilderness, and rivers in the dry land, to give drink to my chosen race,
21 Šos ļaudis Es Sev esmu radījis, tie teiks Manu slavu.
my people whom I have preserved to tell forth my praises.
22 Un tu Mani neesi piesaucis, Jēkab, nedz Manis pēc pūlējies, Israēl!
I have not now called you, O Jacob; neither have I made you weary, 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.
You have not brought me the sheep of your whole burnt offering; neither have you glorified me with your sacrifices. I have not caused you to serve with sacrifices, neither have I wearied you with frankincense.
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.
Neither have you purchased for me victims for silver, neither have I desired the fat of your sacrifices: but you did stand before me in your sins, and in your iniquities.
25 Es, Es tas esmu, kas izdeldu tavus pārkāpumus Sevis dēļ un nepieminu tavus grēkus.
I, [even] I, am he that blots out your transgressions for mine own sake, and your sins; and I will not remember [them].
26 Atgādini Mani, lai mēs kopā tiesājamies, teic jel, kā tu vari taisnoties.
But do you remember, and let us plead [together]: do you first confess your transgressions, that you may be justified.
27 Tavs pirmais tēvs ir grēkojis un tavi aizstāvētāji pret Mani noziegušies.
Your fathers first, and your princes have transgressed against me.
28 Tāpēc Es esmu licis negodā svētuma virsniekus un Jēkabu nodevis lāstam un Israēli kaunam.
And the princes have defiled my sanctuaries: so I gave Jacob [to enemies] to destroy, and Israel to reproach.
