< 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.
Hearken to me, ye that pursue righteousness. Ye that seek Jehovah! Look to the rock whence ye were hewn, To the pit-quarry whence ye were digged!
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 to Abraham your father, And to Sarah that bore you! For I called him when only one, And blessed him, and multiplied him.
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.
Thus will Jehovah have pity upon Zion; He will have pity upon all her desolations. He will make her wilderness like Eden, Her desert like the garden of Jehovah. Joy and gladness shall be found therein; Thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
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.
Hearken to me, O my people! And give ear to me, O my nation! For a law shall proceed from me, And I will establish my statutes for the light of 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 help is near; my salvation goeth forth; My arm shall judge the nations; Distant lands shall wait for me, And in my arm shall they trust.
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.
Lift up your eyes to the heavens, And look down upon the earth beneath! For the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, And the earth shall decay like a garment, And its inhabitants shall perish like flies. But my salvation shall endure forever, And my goodness shall not decay.
7 Klausāties uz Mani, kas taisnību pazīstat, ļaudis, kam Mana bauslība ir sirdī. Nebīstaties par cilvēku nievāšanu un neiztrūcinājāties no viņu zaimošanām.
Hearken to me, ye that know righteousness, The people in whose heart is my law! Fear ye not the reproach of men, Nor be disheartened by their revilings!
8 Jo tārpi tos ēdīs kā drēbi, un kodes tos sakapās kā vilnu, bet Mana taisnība pastāvēs mūžīgi un Mana pestīšana uz cilšu ciltīm.
For the moth shall consume them like a garment, And the worm shall eat them like wool. But my goodness shall endure forever, And my salvation from generation to generation.
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?
Awake! awake! clothe thyself with strength, O arm of Jehovah! Awake, as in the ancient days, in the generations of old!
10 Vai Tu neesi, kas jūru darījis sausu, tos lielos ūdeņu dziļumus darījis par ceļu, ka tie atpestītie gāja cauri?
Art thou not the same that smote Rahab, And wounded the dragon? Art thou not the same that dried up the sea, The waters of the great deep, —That made the depths of the sea a path for the redeemed to pass through?
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.
Thus shall the ransomed of Jehovah return; They shall come to Zion with singing; Everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; They shall obtain gladness and joy, And sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
12 Es, Es esmu jūsu iepriecinātājs: kas tu esi, ka bīsties no cilvēkiem, kam jāmirst, un no cilvēku bērniem, kas iznīkst kā zāle,
I, even I, am he that hath pity upon you; Who art thou, that thou art afraid of man, that shall die, Of the son of man, that shall perish 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?
And forgettest Jehovah thy maker, That stretched out the heavens, And founded the earth, And fearest continually every day, On account of the fury of the oppressor, As if he were taking aim to destroy thee? Where now is the fury of the oppressor?
14 Steigšus saslēgtais tiek svabads un nenomirs bedrē, un maizes viņam netrūks.
Soon shall the enchained be loosed; He shall not die in the pit, Nor shall his bread fail.
15 Jo Es esmu Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, kas kustina jūru, ka viņas viļņi kauc: Kungs Cebaot ir Viņa vārds.
For I am Jehovah thy God, That rebuketh the sea when his waves roar; Jehovah of hosts 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 put my words into thy mouth, And have covered thee with the shadow of my hand, To establish the heavens, and to found the earth. And to say to Zion, “Thou art my people!”
17 Uzmosties, uzmosties, celies Jeruzāleme, kas no Tā Kunga rokas esi dzērusi Viņa bardzības biķeri; reibuma biķeri tu esi izdzērusi un izsūkusi.
Awake, awake, stand up, O Jerusalem! Thou that hast drunk from the hand of Jehovah the cup of his fury, Thou that hast drunk to the dregs the cup of giddiness!
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.
There is not one to lead her, of all the sons which she hath brought forth, Nor is there one to take her by the hand, of all the sons which she hath nurtured.
19 Šīs divējas lietas tev ir notikušas, kas tad tevi žēlos? Posts un nelaime un bads un zobens, kas tad tevi var iepriecināt?
These two things have come upon thee, And who bemoaneth thee? Desolation and destruction, and famine and the sword; How shall I comfort thee?
20 Tavi bērni pamiruši, tie guļ uz visu ielu stūriem kā stirna tīklā, tie bija pilni Tā Kunga bardzības, tava Dieva draudu.
Thy sons have fainted; they lie at the head of all the streets, Like a deer in the net; They are full of the wrath of Jehovah, Of the rebuke of thy God.
21 Tāpēc klausies jel šo, tu apbēdinātā un apreibusī, bet ne no vīna.
Therefore, hear this, thou afflicted, Thou drunken, and not with 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.
Thus saith thy Lord, Jehovah, And thy God, that defendeth the cause of his people. Behold, I will take from thy hand the cup of giddiness, The cup of my wrath; Thou shalt drink no more of it.
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.
And I will put it into the hand of them that have afflicted thee; That have said to thee, “Bow down, that we may pass over!” And thou madest thy body as the ground, And as the street, to them that passed over.
