< 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
This is what Yahweh says, “Where is the certificate of divorce with which I divorced your mother? To which of my creditors did I sell you? Look, you were sold because of your sins, and because of your rebellion, your mother was sent away.
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.
Why did I come but there was no one there? Why did I call but no one answered? Was my hand too short to ransom you? Was there no power in me to rescue you? Look, at my rebuke I dry up the sea; I make the rivers a desert; their fish die for lack of water and rot.
3 Es apģērbju debesis ar krēslību un daru maisu viņām par apsegu.
I clothe the sky with darkness; I cover it with sackcloth.”
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 Yahweh has given me a tongue as one of those who are taught, so that I speak a sustaining word to the weary one; he wakes me morning by morning; he awakens my ear to hear like those who are taught.
5 Tas Kungs Dievs man ausi ir atdarījis, un es neesmu bijis stūrgalvīgs un neesmu atkāpies atpakaļ.
The Lord Yahweh has opened my ear, and I was not rebellious, nor did I turn away 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 those who beat me, and my cheeks to those who plucked out my beard; I did not hide my face from acts of 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.
For the Lord Yahweh will help me; therefore I am not disgraced; so I have made my face like flint, for I know that I will 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 who will justify me is close by. Who will oppose me? Let us stand and confront one another. Who is my accuser? 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.
See, the Lord Yahweh will help me. Who will declare me guilty? See, they will all wear out like a garment; the moth will eat them up.
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 among you fears Yahweh? Who obeys the voice of his servant? Who walks in deep darkness without light? He should trust in the name of Yahweh and lean on 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.
Look, all you who light fires, who equip yourselves with torches: walk in the light of your fire and in the flames that you have ignited. This is what you have received from me: You will lie down in a place of pain.
