< 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.
The LORD says to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have held to subdue nations before him and strip kings of their armor, to open the doors before him, and the gates shall 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 make the rough places smooth. I will break the doors of bronze in pieces and cut 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,
I will give you the treasures of darkness and hidden riches of secret places, that you may know that it is I, the LORD, who calls you by your name, even the God of Israel.
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 Jacob my servant’s sake, and Israel my chosen, I have called you by your name. I have given you a title, though 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. Besides me, there is no God. I will strengthen you, though 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.
that they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is no one besides me. I am the LORD, and there is no one else.
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 darkness. I make peace and create calamity. I am the LORD, who does 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.
Rain, you heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness. Let the earth open, that it may produce salvation, and let it cause righteousness to spring up with it. I, the LORD, have created it.
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 strives with his Maker— a clay pot among the clay pots of the earth! Shall the clay ask him who fashions it, ‘What are you making?’ or your work, ‘He has no hands’?
10 Ak vai, tam, kas saka uz tēvu: kam tu dzemdini? Un uz māti: kam tu dzemdē?
Woe to him who says to a father, ‘What have you become the father of?’ or to a mother, ‘What have you given birth to?’”
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.
The LORD, the Holy One of Israel and his Maker says: “You ask me about the things that are to come, concerning my sons, and you 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 have made the earth, and created man on it. I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens. I have commanded all their army.
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 in righteousness, and I will make all his ways straight. He shall build my city, and he shall let my exiles go free, not for price nor reward,” says the LORD of Armies.
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.
The LORD says: “The labor of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and the Sabeans, men of stature, will come over to you, and they will be yours. They will go after you. They shall come over in chains. They will bow down to you. They will make supplication to you: ‘Surely God is in you; and there is no one else. There is no other god.
15 Patiesi, Tu esi apslēpts Dievs, Israēla Dievs, Pestītājs.
Most certainly you are a God who has hidden yourself, God of Israel, the Savior.’”
16 Tie taps kaunā un par apsmieklu visi; tie aizies kopā ar kaunu, kas taisa elka dievus.
They will be disappointed, yes, confounded, all of them. Those who are makers of idols will go into confusion together.
17 Bet Israēls top atpestīts caur To Kungu ar mūžīgu pestīšanu; jūs netapsiet kaunā nedz par apsmieklu mūžīgi mūžam.
Israel will be saved by the LORD with an everlasting salvation. You will not be disappointed nor confounded to ages everlasting.
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 the LORD who created the heavens, the God who formed the earth and made it, who established it and didn’t create it a waste, who formed it to be inhabited says: “I am the LORD. 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 place of the land of darkness. I didn’t say to the offspring of Jacob, ‘Seek me in vain.’ I, the LORD, speak righteousness. I declare things that are 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 come. Draw near together, you who have escaped from the nations. Those have no knowledge who carry the wood of their engraved image, and pray to a god that can’t 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.
Declare and present it. Yes, let them take counsel together. Who has shown this from ancient time? Who has declared it of old? Haven’t I, the LORD? There is no other God besides me, a just God and a Savior. There is no one besides me.
22 Griežaties pie Manis, tad jūs tapsiet pestīti, visas pasaules gali, jo Es esmu Dievs, un cits neviens.
“Look to me, and be saved, all the ends of the earth; 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 has gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and will not be revoked, that to me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall take an oath.
24 Par Mani sacīs: tiešām, iekš Tā Kunga ir taisnības darbi un stiprums. Pie Viņa ies. Bet kas Viņam turas pretī, paliks kaunā.
They will say of me, ‘There is righteousness and strength only in the LORD.’” Even to him will men come. All those who raged against him will be disappointed.
25 Iekš Tā Kunga taps taisnoti un lielīsies visi, kas no Israēla dzimuma.
All the offspring of Israel will be justified in the LORD, and will rejoice!
