< Jesajas 6 >
1 Tanī gadā, kad ķēniņš Uzija nomira, tad es To Kungu redzēju sēžam uz augsta un uzcelta godības krēsla, un Viņa (drēbju) vīles piepildīja Dieva namu.
In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord seated on a throne, high and exalted; and the train of His robe filled the temple.
2 Serafi stāvēja augšā ap viņu; ikvienam bija seši spārni; ar diviem tas apsedza savu vaigu, un ar diviem tas apsedza savas kājas, un ar diviem tas skrēja.
Above Him stood seraphim, each having six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying.
3 Un tie cits uz citu saucu un sacīja: svēts, svēts, svēts ir Tas Kungs Cebaot, visa zeme ir pilna viņa godības!
And they were calling out to one another: “Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of Hosts; all the earth is full of His glory.”
4 Un sliekšņa pamati trīcēja no tām saucēju balsīm, un tas nams tapa pilns dūmu.
At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook, and the temple was filled with smoke.
5 Tad es sacīju: Ak vai, man! Jo man jāiet bojā, jo es esmu vīrs nešķīstām lūpām un dzīvoju starp ļaudīm, kam nešķīstas lūpas; jo manas acis redzējušas to Ķēniņu, To Kungu Cebaot!
Then I said: “Woe is me, for I am ruined, because I am a man of unclean lips dwelling among a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of Hosts.”
6 Tad viens no tiem serafiem atskrēja pie manis, un viņa rokā bija degoša ogle, ko viņš ar stangām bija ņēmis no altāra.
Then one of the seraphim flew to me, and in his hand was a glowing coal that he had taken with tongs from the altar.
7 Un viņš ar to aizskāra manu muti un sacīja: redzi, šī tavas lūpas aizskārusi, tā tavs noziegums no tevis atņemts, un tavi grēki salīdzināti.
And with it he touched my mouth and said: “Now that this has touched your lips, your iniquity is removed and your sin is atoned for.”
8 Un es dzirdēju Tā Kunga balsi sakām: ko Es sūtīšu un kas mums ies? Tad es sacīju: redzi, še es esmu, sūti mani.
Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying: “Whom shall I send? Who will go for Us?” And I said: “Here am I. Send me!”
9 Tad Viņš sacīja: ej un saki uz šiem ļaudīm: dzirdēt dzirdiet, bet nesaprotiet, un redzēt redziet, bet neņemiet vērā.
And He replied: “Go and tell this people, ‘Be ever hearing, but never understanding; be ever seeing, but never perceiving.’
10 Apcietini šo ļaužu sirdi un dari viņu ausis biezas un apstulbo viņu acis, ka tie savām acīm neredz un savām ausīm nedzird un ar savu sirdi nesaprot un neatgriežas un netop dziedināti.
Make the hearts of this people calloused; deafen their ears and close their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn and be healed.”
11 Tad es sacīju: cik ilgi, Kungs? Un Viņš sacīja: līdz kamēr pilsētas būs izpostītas, ka vairs nav iedzīvotāja, un nami, ka vairs nav cilvēka, un zeme nopostīta par tuksnesi.
Then I asked: “How long, O Lord?” And He replied: “Until the cities lie ruined and without inhabitant, until the houses are left unoccupied and the land is desolate and ravaged,
12 Jo Tas Kungs cilvēkus aizdzīs tālu nost, un atstātu vietu būs daudz zemes vidū.
until the LORD has driven men far away and the land is utterly forsaken.
13 Un ja tanī vēl desmitā tiesa paliks, tad tā atkal ies postā. Bet kā ozols un kā liepa, kam celms paliek, kad to nocērt, - svēts dzimums būs tas celms.
And though a tenth remains in the land, it will be burned again. As the terebinth and oak leave stumps when felled, so the holy seed will be a stump in the land.”
