Jesajas 51
1 Klausāties uz Mani, kas taisnībai dzenaties pakaļ, kas To Kungu meklējat. Uzlūkojiet to akmens kalnu, no kā esat cirsti, un to akas bedri, kur esat izrakti.
Listen to me, those of you who follow what is right, and who worship the Lord. Think about the rock from which you were cut, and to the quarry from which you were chiseled.
2 Uzlūkojiet Ābrahāmu, savu tēvu, un Sāru, kas jūs dzemdējusi. To Es aicināju, kad viņš vēl bija viens pats, un Es to svētīju un vairoju.
Look back at Abraham your father, and Sarah who gave birth to you. When I called him, he was only one man, but then I blessed him and he had many descendants.
3 Jo Tas Kungs iepriecinās Ciānu, Viņš iepriecinās visas viņas tukšās vietas un darīs viņas tuksnesi kā Edeni un viņas lauku kā Tā Kunga dārzu; prieku un līksmību tur atradīs, pateikšanu un slavas dziesmas.
The Lord will care for Zion and feel sorry about all her ruined places. He will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert areas like the garden of the Lord. People there will have joy and happiness, giving thanks and singing sweet songs.
4 Ņem Mani vērā, Mana tauta, atgriežat ausis pie Manis, Mani ļaudis, jo no Manis iziet bauslība, un Savu tiesu Es iecelšu tautām par gaišumu.
Pay attention to me, my people; listen to me, my nation: I will send out my law, and my justice will be a light to the nations.
5 Mana taisnība ir tuvu klāt, Mana pestīšana parādās, un Mans elkonis sodīs tautas. Uz Mani salas gaida un cerē uz Manu elkoni.
My rule of right will arrive soon. My salvation is coming. My power will bring judgment to the nations. The distant lands are waiting for me and my power.
6 Paceliet savas acis uz debesīm un skatāties uz zemi apakšā; jo debesis iznīks kā dūmi, un zeme nodils kā drēbe, un viņas iedzīvotāji nomirs kā mušas. Bet Mana pestīšana pastāvēs mūžīgi, Mana taisnība netiks apgāzta.
Look up at the heavens, and look down at the earth beneath. The heavens will disappear like smoke, the earth will wear out like old clothes. The people living there will die like flies, but my salvation will last forever, and my way of goodness and right will never be destroyed.
7 Klausāties uz Mani, kas taisnību pazīstat, ļaudis, kam Mana bauslība ir sirdī. Nebīstaties par cilvēku nievāšanu un neiztrūcinājāties no viņu zaimošanām.
Listen to me, you who know what's right, and who have really accepted my teachings. Don't be afraid of people's insults—they're just human—or be terrified by their abusive language.
8 Jo tārpi tos ēdīs kā drēbi, un kodes tos sakapās kā vilnu, bet Mana taisnība pastāvēs mūžīgi un Mana pestīšana uz cilšu ciltīm.
Moths will eat them up like clothing; bugs will chew through them like wool. But my goodness will last forever, my salvation will endure for all generations.
9 Uzmosties, uzmosties, apvelc stiprumu, Tā Kunga elkonis, uzmosties kā sendienās, vecu vecos laikos! Vai Tu neesi tas, kas Rahabu (Ēģipti) pāršķēlis un to pūķi nodūris?
Please wake up, wake up! Use your strength, powerful Lord! Act as you used to in olden days, in former generations. Weren't you the one who cut Rahab to pieces, who killed that sea monster?
10 Vai Tu neesi, kas jūru darījis sausu, tos lielos ūdeņu dziļumus darījis par ceļu, ka tie atpestītie gāja cauri?
Weren't you the one who dried up the sea, making a way through the deep waters for the redeemed to cross over?
11 Un Tā Kunga atpirktie griezīsies atpakaļ un nāks uz Ciānu ar gavilēšanu, un mūžīga līksmība būs pār viņu galvām; prieks un līksmība tos apkamps, skumjas un bēdas bēgs projām.
Those the Lord has set free will return, singing as they enter Jerusalem, wearing crowns of everlasting joy. They are overcome with thankfulness and happiness; sorrow and sadness simply disappear.
12 Es, Es esmu jūsu iepriecinātājs: kas tu esi, ka bīsties no cilvēkiem, kam jāmirst, un no cilvēku bērniem, kas iznīkst kā zāle,
It's me, yes, I am the one who comforts you. Why should you be afraid of mortals who die just like grass?
13 Un aizmirsti To Kungu, savu Radītāju, kas debesis izpletis un zemi dibinājis, un bīsties bez mitēšanās cauru dienu no spaidītāja bardzības, kad tas taisās maitāt? Bet kur nu ir tā spaidītāja bardzība?
You have forgotten the Lord, your Maker, who stretched out the heavens and who laid the foundations of the earth! That's why you shake with fear all day long, because you're threatened by the anger of those who oppress you, wanting to destroy you. But where are your oppressors and their anger now?
14 Steigšus saslēgtais tiek svabads un nenomirs bedrē, un maizes viņam netrūks.
The prisoners that are bowed down will soon be set free. They're not going to die; they won't go on being hungry.
15 Jo Es esmu Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, kas kustina jūru, ka viņas viļņi kauc: Kungs Cebaot ir Viņa vārds.
For I am the Lord your God who whips up the sea so its waves roar. The Lord Almighty is his name.
16 Un Es lieku Savus vārdus tavā mutē un tevi apklāju ar Savas rokas ēnu, ka Es dēstu debesis un stādu zemi un saku uz Ciānu: tu esi Mana tauta.
I have told you what to say, and I have protected you with my hand. I created the heavens and founded the earth, and told Zion, “You are my people.”
17 Uzmosties, uzmosties, celies Jeruzāleme, kas no Tā Kunga rokas esi dzērusi Viņa bardzības biķeri; reibuma biķeri tu esi izdzērusi un izsūkusi.
Wake up, wake up! Get up, Jerusalem! You have drunk from the cup of the Lord's anger he handed to you. You have drained it down to the bottom of the cup, the drink that makes people stagger around.
18 No visiem bērniem, ko tā ir dzemdējusi, neviena nebija, kas viņu būtu vadījis(drošībā un miera vietā), un no visiem bērniem, ko tā uzaudzinājusi, neviena, kas viņu pie rokas būtu ņēmis.
Of all your children you had, there's not one left to guide you. Of all the children you raised, there's not one to take you by the hand.
19 Šīs divējas lietas tev ir notikušas, kas tad tevi žēlos? Posts un nelaime un bads un zobens, kas tad tevi var iepriecināt?
Two tragedies have struck you: devastation caused by famine, and destruction caused by war. Who is going to sympathize with you? Who is going to comfort you?
20 Tavi bērni pamiruši, tie guļ uz visu ielu stūriem kā stirna tīklā, tie bija pilni Tā Kunga bardzības, tava Dieva draudu.
Your children have collapsed, lying in every street like antelopes caught in a trap. They experienced the full anger of the Lord, the condemnation of your God.
21 Tāpēc klausies jel šo, tu apbēdinātā un apreibusī, bet ne no vīna.
So please listen to this, you poor people, sitting there in a drunken state, but not from drinking wine.
22 Tā saka tavs Kungs, Tas Kungs, un tavs Dievs, kas Saviem ļaudīm tiesu nesīs: redzi, Es ņemu no tavas rokas to reibuma biķeri, Savas bardzības biķeri, tev vairs to nebūs dzert.
This is what your Lord God says, your God, who defends his people's cause: Look! I have taken away from you the cup that made you stagger around. You will never again have to drink from that cup, the cup of my anger.
23 Bet Es to došu rokā taviem spaidītājiem, kas uz tavu dvēseli saka: lokies, ka mēs ejam pāri, un noliec savu muguru pār zemi un par ielu tiem, kas staigā pāri.
Instead I will give that cup to the people who tormented you, to those who said to you, “Lie face down so we can walk all over you.” You had to make your backs like the ground, like a street to be walked on.
