Jesajas 56
1 Tā saka Tas Kungs: turiet tiesu un dariet taisnību; jo Mana pestīšana ir tuvu nākusi, un Mana taisnība parādīsies.
Yahweh says [to all the people of Judah], “Do the things that are fair and just, because I will soon come to rescue [DOU] you.
2 Svētīgs tas cilvēks, kas to dara, un tas cilvēka bērns, kas stipri pie tā turas, kas svētdienu svēti un to nesagāna, un sargā savu roku, ka nedara ļauna.
I will bless those who faithfully obey my laws about the Sabbath/rest days. I will bless those who (keep sacred/honor) my Sabbath/rest days, and who do not do any work on those days, and who refrain from [MTY] doing anything that is evil.
3 Un tas svešinieks, kas Tam Kungam pieķeras, lai nerunā un nesaka: Tas Kungs mani patiesi atšķirs no saviem ļaudīm; un, kas rāmits(kastrēts), lai nesaka: redzi, es esmu sakaltis koks.
And foreigners who have believed in me should not say, ‘Yahweh will surely not allow me to belong to his people.’ And eunuchs should not say, ‘[Because I am unable to have children, I cannot belong to Yahweh]; I am like [MET] a tree that has completely withered.’
4 Jo tā saka Tas Kungs uz tiem rāmitiem: kas svētī Manas svētdienas un to pieņem, kas Man patīk, un stipri tura Manu derību,
They should not say that, because [I], Yahweh, say this to the eunuchs who obey my laws about the Sabbath, and who choose to do the things that please me, and who obey all [the other laws of] the agreement that I [made with the Israeli people]:
5 Tiem Es došu vietu Savā namā un Savos mūros, un vārdu, kas labāks nekā dēli un meitas, mūžīgu vārdu Es tiem došu, kas netaps izdeldēts:
I will cause to be put inside the walls of my temple a monument [DOU] to them; because of that monument, they will be honored more than they would have if they had children; they will be honored forever.
6 Un tos svešiniekus, kas Tam Kungam pieķeras, Viņam kalpot un Tā Kunga vārdu mīlēt, Viņam būt par kalpiem, - visus, kas svētdienu svētī un to nesagāna, un kas stipri turas pie Manas derības,
I will also bless those who are not Israelis, who (join themselves to/believe in) me, and who serve me and worship and love me, and who obey my laws about the Sabbath, and who faithfully obey [all the other laws of] the agreement that I [made with the Israeli people].
7 Tos Es nesīšu uz Savu svēto kalnu un tos iepriecināšu Savā lūgšanas namā; viņu dedzināmie un viņu kaujamie upuri būs patīkami uz Mana altāra. Jo Mans nams taps nosaukts lūgšanas nams visām tautām.
I will bring them to my sacred hill [in Jerusalem], I will cause them to be [very] joyful in my temple where people pray to me, and I will accept the sacrifices that they completely burn [on my altar] and other sacrifices that they offer. I will do those things for them because I want my temple to be a building where people of all nations pray to me.
8 Tas Kungs Dievs, kas sapulcina Israēla izdzītos, saka: Es pie viņa vēl vairāk sapulcināšu pār tiem, kas jau ir sapulcināti.
[I], Yahweh, the Lord, the one who will bring back the people of Israel who have been (forced to go/exiled) to other countries, say this: 'I will bring [from other countries] many more people to join those Israelis whom I have brought back.'”
9 Visi lauka zvēri, nāciet ēst, arī visi meža zvēri.
“You [surrounding nations have armies that are like] [MET] animals in the forest; come and attack/destroy [Israel]!
10 Visi viņu sargi ir akli, tie nezin nekā, tie visi ir mēmi suņi, kas nemāk riet, sapņodami tie guļ, iemīl miegu.
The Israeli leaders [should be like] watchdogs to protect the people, but [it is as though] they are blind. They are stupid. They are all [like] [MET] dogs that cannot bark. [Good watchdogs bark when strangers approach], [but the Israeli leaders do not warn the people that their enemies are coming]. Instead, they just want to lie down and sleep and dream.
11 Un šie suņi ir plēsīgi un nepieēdināmi. Un šie ir gani, kam pašiem nav saprašanas, tie visi līdz beidzamam iet ikviens pa savu ceļu, pēc savas peļņas.
[And they are like] greedy dogs; they never get all that they want. They are [supposed to lead the people, like good] shepherds [lead their flocks], but they are ignorant, and they each do whatever they want to do.
12 Nāciet šurp, (tie saka) es dabūšu vīnu, un dzersim stipru dzērienu un rītā lai ir kā šodien, papilnam, jo vairāk jo labāk.
They say to each other, ‘Come, let’s go and get some wine and [other] alcoholic/strong drinks, and let’s become drunk! And tomorrow we will enjoy drinking even more!’”
