Jesajas 48
1 Klausāties šo, Jēkaba nams, ko sauc pēc Israēla vārda un kas iztecējuši no Jūda avota, kas zvērējāt pie Tā Kunga vārda un pieminat Israēla Dievu, bet nevis patiesībā nedz taisnībā!
Hear these [words], you house of Jacob, who are called by the name of Israel, and have come forth out of Juda, who swear by the name of the Lord God of Israel, making mention [of it, but] not with truth, nor with righteousness;
2 Jo tie nosaucās pēc tās svētās pilsētas un paļaujas uz Israēla Dievu; Kungs Cebaot ir viņa vārds.
maintaining also the name of the holy city, and staying themselves on the God of Israel: the Lord of hosts is his name. The former things I have already declared;
3 “Tās priekšējās lietas Es sen jau esmu pasludinājis, un no Manas mutes tās nākušas, un Es tās esmu darījis zināmas. Piepeši tās esmu izdarījis, un tās notikušas.
and they that have proceeded out of my mouth, and it became well known; I wrought suddenly, and [the events] came to pass.
4 Es zināju tevi esam stūrgalvīgu, un ka tavs pakausis ir dzelzs gabals un tava piere varš.
I know that you are stubborn, and your neck is an iron sinew, and your forehead brazen.
5 Tādēļ tev to sen esmu pasludinājis, pirms tas notika, Es tev to esmu devis dzirdēt, ka tu nesacītu: mans elkadievs to darījis un mans tēls un mana bilde to pavēlējuši.
And I told you of old what [should be] before it came upon you; I made it known to you, lest you should say, [My] idols have done [it] for me; and should say, [My] graven and molten images have commanded me.
6 Tu to esi dzirdējis, redzi nu visu to! Vai tad jums to nebūs pasludināt? No šā brīža Es tev daru zināmas jaunas lietas un apslēptas lietas, ko tu nezini.
You have heard all this, but you have not known: yet I have made known to you the new things from henceforth, which are coming to pass, and you said not,
7 Tagad tās radītas un nevis sen, un ne dienu iepriekš tu no tām neesi dzirdējis, lai nevari sacīt: redzi, es to esmu zinājis.
Now they come to pass, and not formerly: and you heard not of them in former days: say not you, Yes, I know them.
8 To tu neesi ne dzirdējis ne zinājis nedz tava auss senāk bijusi atdarīta. Jo Es zināju, ka tu esi pavisam neuzticams, un ka no mātes miesām tevi sauc (par) pārkāpēju.
You have neither known, nor understood, neither from the beginning have I opened your ears: for I knew that you would surely deal treacherously, and would be called a transgressor even from the womb.
9 Sava vārda dēļ Es Savu dusmību pavilcināju, un Savas slavas dēļ Es savaldos tev par labu, ka tevi neizdeldu.
For mine own sake will I show you my wrath, and will bring before you my glorious acts, that I may not utterly destroy you.
10 Redzi, Es tevi esmu šķīstījis, tomēr nekā sudrabu, Es tevi esmu pārbaudījis bēdu ceplī.
Behold, I have sold you, [but] not for silver; but I have rescued you from the furnace of affliction.
11 Manis dēļ, Manis dēļ Es to daru, lai(Mans vārds) netop zaimots. Un Savu godu Es nedošu citam.
For mine own sake I will do [this] for you, because my name is profaned; and I will not give my glory to another.
12 Klausies uz Mani, Jēkab, un Israēl, Manis aicināts, Es tas esmu, Es tas pirmais un Es tas pēdīgais.
Hear me, O Jacob, and Israel whom I call; I am the first, and I endure for ever.
13 Tiešām, Mana roka zemi ir likusi, un Mana labā roka izplātījusi debesis; kad Es uz tām saucu, tad tās visnotaļ stāv.
My hand also has founded the earth, and my right hand has fixed the sky: I will call them, and they shall stand together.
14 Sapulcējaties visi un klausāties, kurš no šiem šīs lietas pasludinājis? Tas, ko Tas Kungs mīl, tas izdarīs Viņa prātu pret Bābeli, un Viņa elkonis būs pret Kaldejiem.
And all shall be gathered, and shall hear: who has told them these things? Out of love to you I have fulfilled your desire on Babylon, to abolish the seed of the Chaldeans.
15 Es, Es to esmu runājis, un Es viņu esmu aicinājis, Es viņam likšu nākt, un viņa ceļš labi izdosies.
I have spoken, I have called, I have brought him, and made his way prosperous.
16 Nākat klāt pie Manis, klausāties šo: no iesākuma Es nekā neesmu runājis slepenībā, (bet) no tā laika, kad tas sācies, es še esmu.” Un nu Tas Kungs Dievs mani sūtījis un Viņa Garu.
Draw near to me, and hear you these words; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning: when it took place, there was I, and now the Lord, [even] the Lord, and his Spirit, has sent me.
17 Tā saka Tas Kungs, tavs Pestītājs, tas Svētais iekš Israēla: Es Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, Es tevi mācu, kas piederas, Es tevi vadu pa to ceļu, kur jāiet.
Thus says the Lord that delivered you, the Holy One of Israel; I am your God, I have shown you how you should find the way wherein you should walk.
18 Kaut tu Manus baušļus liktu vērā, tad tavs miers būtu kā upe, un tava taisnība kā jūras viļņi.
And if you had listened to my commandments, [then] would your peace have been like a river, and your righteousness as a wave of the sea.
19 Un tavs dzimums būtu kā smiltis, un tavas miesas augļi kā viņu zvirgzdes, un viņa vārds neizzustu nedz taptu izdeldēts Manā priekšā.
Your seed also would have been as the sand, and the offspring of your belly as the dust of the ground: neither now shall you by any means be utterly destroyed, neither shall your name perish before me.
20 Ejat ārā no Bābeles, bēdziet no Kaldejiem, ar prieka balsīm sludinājiet, dariet to zināmu, izpaudiet to līdz zemes galiem, sakāt: Tas Kungs Savu kalpu Jēkabu atpestījis.
Go forth of Babylon, you that flee from the Chaldeans: utter aloud a voice of joy, and let this be made known, proclaim it to the end of the earth; say you, The Lord has delivered his servant Jacob.
21 Un tie neizslāpa, kad Viņš tos vadīja pa tuksnesi, Viņš tiem ūdeni iztecināja no klints un šķēla klinti, ka ūdens iztecēja.
And if they shall thirst, he shall lead them through the desert; he shall bring forth water to them out of the rock: the rock shall be cloven, and the water shall flow forth, and my people shall drink.
22 Bet bezdievīgiem nav miera, saka Tas Kungs.
There is no joy, says the Lord, to the ungodly.
