Jesajas 50
1 Tā saka Tas Kungs: Kur ir jūsu mātes šķiršanās grāmata, ar ko Es viņu būtu atstādinājis, un kur ir Mans parādu dzinējs, kam Es jūs būtu pārdevis? Redzi, jūs savu noziegumu dēļ esat pārdoti, un jūsu pārkāpumu dēļ jūsu māte ir atstādināta
Thus saith Jehovah: Where is the bill of your mother's divorcement, By which I dismissed her? Or who is he among my creditors To whom I have sold you? Behold, for your iniquities are ye sold, And for your transgressions was your mother dismissed.
2 Kāpēc Es nācu, un neviena tur nebija? Kāpēc Es saucu, un neviens neatbildēja? Vai tad Mana roka īsin paīsināta, ka tā nevar atpestīt? Jeb vai Man spēka nav izglābt? Redzi, ar Saviem draudiem Es jūru daru sausu, pārvēršu straumes par tuksnesi, ka viņu zivis smird, jo ūdens nav, un tās mirst aiz slāpēm.
Wherefore, when I came, was no man at hand? When I called, was there none to answer? Is my hand too short to redeem? Or have I no power to deliver? Behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, And make the rivers a desert. Their fish putrefy for want of water, And die with thirst.
3 Es apģērbju debesis ar krēslību un daru maisu viņām par apsegu.
I clothe the heavens with blackness, And make sackcloth their covering.
4 Tas Kungs Dievs man ir devis mācītu mēli, ka es zinu ar vārdiem stiprināt nogurušus. Viņš uzmodina ik rītu, Viņš uzmodina manu ausi, klausīties kā tie, kas mācās.
The Lord Jehovah hath given me the tongue of the learned, That I might know how to strengthen with my words them that are weary; He wakeneth me every morning, He wakeneth mine ear, That I may hear in the manner of the learned.
5 Tas Kungs Dievs man ausi ir atdarījis, un es neesmu bijis stūrgalvīgs un neesmu atkāpies atpakaļ.
The Lord Jehovah opened mine ear, And I was not disobedient, Neither did I withdraw myself backward.
6 Es savu muguru devu tiem, kas mani sita, un savu vaigu tiem, kas mani plūca; es neapslēpu savu vaigu no nievāšanas un spļaudalām.
I gave my back to the smiters, And my cheeks to them that pluck the beard; I hid not my face from shame and spitting.
7 Jo Tas Kungs Dievs man palīdz, tādēļ es nepaliku kaunā. Tāpēc es savu vaigu esmu darījis kā kramu, jo es zinu, ka nepalikšu kaunā.
But the Lord Jehovah is my helper, Therefore shall I not be confounded; Therefore have I made my face like a flint, For I know that I shall not be put to shame.
8 Viņš ir tuvu, kas mani taisno, kas gan ar mani tiesāsies? Saiesim kopā! Kas ir mans pretinieks tiesā? Lai nāk klāt pie manis!
He that defendeth my cause is near; Who will contend with me? Let us stand up together! Who is my adversary? Let him come near to me!
9 Redzi, Tas Kungs Dievs man palīdz; kas mani pazudinās? Redzi, tie visi sadils kā drēbe, kodes tos ēdīs.
Behold, the Lord Jehovah is my defender; Who is he that shall condemn me? Behold, they shall all waste away like a garment; The moth shall consume them.
10 Kurš jūsu starpā bīstas To Kungu, un klausa Viņa kalpa balsi? Kas tumsībā staigā, kur gaismas nav, tas lai paļaujas uz Tā Kunga vārdu un cerē uz savu Dievu.
Who is there among you that feareth Jehovah, That hearkeneth to the voice of his servant, That walketh in darkness and hath no light? Let him trust in the name of Jehovah, And lean upon his God.
11 Redzi, jūs visi, kas uguni sakurat un sataisāt ugunīgas bultas, ejat paši savās uguns liesmās un tais bultās, ko esat iededzinājuši! Tas jums notiek no Manas rokas, sāpēs jums jāguļ.
Behold, all ye who kindle a fire, Who gird yourselves with burning arrows! Walk ye in the light of your fire, And in the burning arrows which ye have kindled. This shall ye have from my hand; Ye shall lie down in sorrow.
