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.
[Yahweh says], “You people who desire to act righteously/justly, who want to do what I want you to do, listen to me! Think about Abraham! [It is as though] [MET] he was a huge rock cliff; and when you [people of Israel became a nation], [it was as though] [MET] you were cut from that rock [DOU].
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.
Think about your ancestor Abraham and [his wife] Sarah, of whom [all of] you are descendants. When I first spoke to Abraham, he had no children. But after I blessed him, he had a huge number of 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.
[Some day I], Yahweh, will encourage his descendants [again], and I will comfort all [the people who live in] the ruins [of Jerusalem]. The desert in that area will become like Eden, like the garden that I, Yahweh, [made/planted]. All the people there will be joyful and happy; they will thank me and sing.
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.
My people of Judah, listen carefully [DOU] to me, because [I want you to] proclaim my laws; the just/right things that I do will be [like] [MET] a light for the people 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.
I will soon/quickly rescue you [DOU]; by my power [MTY] I will bring you back [from being exiled in Babylonia] [DOU]. The people who live on islands in the ocean will wait for me [to help them], confidently expecting for me to use my power [MTY].
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 sky, and look at the earth, [and see what they are like now], because [some day] the sky will disappear like [SIM] smoke, and the earth will wear out like [SIM] old clothes wear out, and people on the earth will die like gnats/flies. But I will rescue/save you, and you will remain free forever, and I will rule you righteously/fairly forever.
7 Klausāties uz Mani, kas taisnību pazīstat, ļaudis, kam Mana bauslība ir sirdī. Nebīstaties par cilvēku nievāšanu un neiztrūcinājāties no viņu zaimošanām.
You people who know what things are right to do, and who know in your inner beings [what is written in] my laws, listen to me! Do not be afraid of people who taunt/insult you; do not be disturbed/upset when people revile you,
8 Jo tārpi tos ēdīs kā drēbi, un kodes tos sakapās kā vilnu, bet Mana taisnība pastāvēs mūžīgi un Mana pestīšana uz cilšu ciltīm.
because [some day they will be destroyed] like [MET] clothing that is eaten by ([larvae of] moths/cockroaches), like wool garments that have been eaten by worms. I will save you people, and you will be saved forever.”
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?
Yahweh, wake up [and do something for us]! Show your power! Do mighty things like you did long ago, when you stabbed [RHQ] that sea monster/dragon Rahab and cut it into pieces.
10 Vai Tu neesi, kas jūru darījis sausu, tos lielos ūdeņu dziļumus darījis par ceļu, ka tie atpestītie gāja cauri?
Surely you are [RHQ] the one who caused the [Red] Sea to become dry and made a path through that deep water in order that your people could cross it!
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.
And those whom Yahweh will rescue [from being exiled in Babylonia] will [similarly] return to Jerusalem, singing. Their being joyful forever will be [like] [MET] a crown on their heads. They will not be sad or mourn any more; they will be [completely] joyful and happy.
12 Es, Es esmu jūsu iepriecinātājs: kas tu esi, ka bīsties no cilvēkiem, kam jāmirst, un no cilvēku bērniem, kas iznīkst kā zāle,
[Yahweh says], “I am the one who encourages you. So (why are you/you should not be) [RHQ] afraid of humans who will [wither and disappear like] [MET] 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?
(Why have you/You should not have) [RHQ] forgotten [me], Yahweh, the one who created your nation, the one who stretched out the sky and laid the foundations of the earth. (Why are you/You should not be) [RHQ] continually afraid of those who are angry with you and (oppress you/treat you cruelly) and want to get rid of you. [You should not be afraid of them now], because those angry people have now disappeared!
14 Steigšus saslēgtais tiek svabads un nenomirs bedrē, un maizes viņam netrūks.
Soon you people who have been caused to be slaves [in Babylonia] will be freed! You will not remain in prison, and you will not die of hunger,
15 Jo Es esmu Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, kas kustina jūru, ka viņas viļņi kauc: Kungs Cebaot ir Viņa vārds.
because I am Yahweh, your God, the one who stirs up the sea and causes the waves to roar; I am the Commander of the armies of angels!
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 given you my message [MTY] to proclaim, and I have protected you with my hand [MTY]. I stretched out the sky and laid the foundation of the earth. And I am the one who says to you Israeli people, ‘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.
[You people of] [APO] Jerusalem, wake up [DOU]! You have experienced Yahweh severely punishing [MTY] you. Yahweh has caused you to suffer much, all that he wanted you to suffer, like [MET] someone who causes another person to suffer by forcing him to drink every drop of [MTY] a cupful of bitter liquid.
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.
[Now] you do not have any children who are alive [DOU] and able to take your hand and guide you.
19 Šīs divējas lietas tev ir notikušas, kas tad tevi žēlos? Posts un nelaime un bads un zobens, kas tad tevi var iepriecināt?
You have experienced several disasters: Your country has become desolate/deserted; [your cities have been] destroyed; [many people have] died from hunger; [many people have been] killed by your enemies’ swords. Now, there is no one [RHQ] left to console/comfort you and sympathize with 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 fainted and lie in the streets; they are [as helpless as] [SIM] an antelope [that has been caught] in a net. What has happened to them is because Yahweh has been very angry with them; he has rebuked them severely.
21 Tāpēc klausies jel šo, tu apbēdinātā un apreibusī, bet ne no vīna.
So now, you people who have suffered much, [you act as though] you are drunk, but it is not because you have drunk a lot of 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.
Yahweh, your Lord and your God, the one who argues/pleads your case, says this: “Note this: [It is as though] [MET] I have taken that cup of bitter liquid from your hands; I will not be angry with you and cause you to suffer any more.
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 cause those who have tormented you to suffer; [I will severely punish] those who said to you, ‘Prostrate yourselves in order that we may walk on you; [lie down on your stomachs] in order that your backs will be like [SIM] streets that we can walk on.’”
