< Jesajas 45 >
1 Tā saka Tas Kungs uz savu svaidīto, Kiru: Es to satveru pie viņa labās rokas, ka Es tautas viņa priekšā metu pie zemes, un atraisu ķēniņu jostas, un atdaru priekš viņa durvis, un vārti nepaliek aizslēgti.
Thus says the Lord to my anointed Cyrus, whose right hand I hold, so that I may subjugate the nations before his face, and I may turn the backs of kings, and I may open the doors before him, and so that the gates will not be shut.
2 Es iešu tavā priekšā un darīšu līdzenus nelīdzenos ceļus, es salauzīšu vara durvis un sadauzīšu dzelzs aizšaujamos.
I will go before you. And I will humble the glorious ones of the earth. I will shatter the gates of brass, and I will break apart the bars of iron.
3 Un Es tev došu mantas, kas tumsā, un apslēpto bagātību, lai tu atzīsti, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs, kas tevi sauc pie vārda, tas Israēla Dievs,
And I will give you hidden treasures and the knowledge of secret things, so that you may know that I am the Lord, the God of Israel, who calls your name.
4 Jēkaba, Mana kalpa dēļ, un Israēla, Mana izredzētā, dēļ. Un Es tevi saucu pie tava vārda, Es tevi mīlīgi uzrunāju, kad tu Mani vēl nepazini.
For the sake of Jacob, my servant, and Israel, my elect, I have even called you by your name. I have taken you up, and you have not known me.
5 Es esmu Tas Kungs, un cits neviens, dieva nav, kā Es vien. Es tevi esmu apjozis, jebšu tu Mani nepazini,
I am the Lord, and there is no one else. There is no god beside me. I girded you, and you have not known me.
6 Lai zināms top no saules uzlēkšanas un noiešanas, ka neviena nav bez Manis: Es esmu Tas Kungs, un cits neviens.
So may those who are from the rising of the sun, and those who are from its setting, know that there is no one beside me. I am the Lord, and there is no other.
7 Es ceļu gaismu un radu tumsu, Es daru mieru un radu ļaunumu. Es Tas Kungs daru to visu.
I form the light and create the darkness. I make peace and create disaster. I, the Lord, do all these things.
8 Piliet, debesis, no augšienes, un padebeši lai izlej taisnību; lai zeme atveras un izdod pestīšanu, un taisnība lai līdz izaug: Es Tas Kungs to esmu radījis.
Send down dew from above, O heavens, and let the clouds rain down upon the just! Let the earth open and spring forth a savior! And let justice rise up at once! I, the Lord, have created him.
9 Vai tam, kas pretī runā savam radītājam, poda gabals starp poda gabaliem no zemes! Vai gan māls saka uz savu taisītāju: ko tu dari? Jeb vai tavs darbs sacīs: viņam nav rokas?
Woe to him who contradicts his Maker, a mere shard from an earthen vessel! Should the clay say to the potter, “What are you making?” or, “Your work is not made by your hands?”
10 Ak vai, tam, kas saka uz tēvu: kam tu dzemdini? Un uz māti: kam tu dzemdē?
Woe to him who says to his father, “Why did you conceive?” or to a woman, “Why did you give birth?”
11 Tā saka Tas Kungs, tas Svētais iekš Israēla un viņa Radītājs: Vaicājiet no Manis nākamas lietas; Manus bērnus un Manas rokas darbu pavēliet Man.
Thus says the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, his Maker: Would you question me about the future, concerning my sons, and command me concerning the work of my hands?
12 Es esmu darījis zemi un radījis cilvēku zemes virsū. Es tas esmu, Manas rokas izplātījušas debesis, un Es pavēlu visam viņu spēkam.
I made the earth, and I created man upon it. My hand stretched out the heavens, and I have commanded all their hosts.
13 Es viņu esmu uzmodinājis taisnībā un darīšu visus viņa ceļus līdzenus. Viņš uzcels Manu pilsētu un atlaidīs Manus cietumniekus, ne par maksu un ne par dāvanām, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
I have raised him up unto justice, and I will direct all his ways. He himself will build my city and release my captives, but not for ransom or gifts, says the Lord, the God of hosts.
14 Tā saka Tas Kungs: ēģiptiešu padoms, Moru ļaužu manta un Zabieši, vīri garu augumu, nāks pie tevis un tev piederēs, un staigās tev pakaļ; saistīti tie atnāks un klanīsies priekš tevis, tie tevi pielūgs: Patiesi, Dievs ir ar tevi, un nav cita Dieva.
Thus says the Lord: The labor of Egypt, and the business dealings of Ethiopia, and of the Sabeans, men of stature, will pass to you and will be yours. They will walk behind you. They will travel, bound in irons. And they will adore you and petition you: “In you alone is God, and there is no God apart from you.
15 Patiesi, Tu esi apslēpts Dievs, Israēla Dievs, Pestītājs.
Truly, you are a hidden God, the God of Israel, the Savior.”
16 Tie taps kaunā un par apsmieklu visi; tie aizies kopā ar kaunu, kas taisa elka dievus.
They have all been confounded and should be ashamed! These fabricators of errors have departed together into confusion!
17 Bet Israēls top atpestīts caur To Kungu ar mūžīgu pestīšanu; jūs netapsiet kaunā nedz par apsmieklu mūžīgi mūžam.
Israel is saved in the Lord by an eternal salvation. You will not be confounded, and you will not be ashamed, even forever and ever.
18 Jo tā saka Tas Kungs, kas debesis radījis, tas Dievs, kas zemi iztaisījis un darījis; Viņš to ir cēlis, Viņš to nav radījis, ka būtu tukša, bet Viņš to taisījis, lai tur dzīvo: Es esmu Tas Kungs, un cits neviens.
For thus says the Lord, who created the heavens, God himself who formed the earth and made it, the very Molder of it. He did not create it to no purpose. He formed it so that it would be inhabited. I am the Lord, and there is no other.
19 Es neesmu slepeni runājis kādā tumšā zemes vietā. Es uz Jēkaba dzimumu neesmu sacījis: meklējiet Mani velti! Es esmu Tas Kungs, kas runā taisnību un sludina patiesību.
I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth. I have not said to the offspring of Jacob, “Seek me in vain.” I am the Lord, who speaks justice, who announces what is right.
20 Sapulcējaties un nāciet, tuvojaties visi līdz, kas izglābti no pagāniem! Tie nezin nenieka, kas apkārt nēsā savus izgrieztos koka tēlus, un pielūdz dievu, kas nevar izpestīt.
Assemble yourselves, and approach, and draw near together, you who have been saved among the Gentiles. They lack knowledge, who lift up the wood of their sculpture, and who petition a god unable to save.
21 Sludiniet un nāciet klāt, sarunājaties kopā. Kas to ir darījis zināmu no veciem laikiem, kas to sen stāstījis? Vai ne Es, Tas Kungs? Un cita Dieva nav, kā Es vien, taisna Dieva un Pestītāja neviena nav, kā Es vien.
Announce it, and approach, and consult together. Who has caused this to be heard from the beginning, and who has foretold it from that time? Is it not I, the Lord? And is there some other god beside me? I am a just God who saves, and there is no one except me.
22 Griežaties pie Manis, tad jūs tapsiet pestīti, visas pasaules gali, jo Es esmu Dievs, un cits neviens.
All ends of the earth, be converted to me, and you will be saved. For I am God, and there is no other.
23 Es esmu zvērējis pie Sevis paša, taisnība no Manas mutes izgājusi, vārds, kas nav pārgrozāms: tiešām, visi ceļi Manā priekšā locīsies, visas mēles Man zvērēs.
I have sworn by myself. The Word of justice will proceed from my mouth, and it will not turn back. For every knee shall bend to me, and every tongue shall swear it.
24 Par Mani sacīs: tiešām, iekš Tā Kunga ir taisnības darbi un stiprums. Pie Viņa ies. Bet kas Viņam turas pretī, paliks kaunā.
Therefore, he will say, “In the Lord are my justices and my dominion.” They will go to him. And all who fight against him will be confounded.
25 Iekš Tā Kunga taps taisnoti un lielīsies visi, kas no Israēla dzimuma.
In the Lord, all the offspring of Israel will be justified and praised.
