< 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 of king 'Uzziyahu's death I saw the Lord sitting upon a high and exalted throne, and his train 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.
Seraphim were standing around him, each one had six wings; with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two did he fly.
3 Un tie cits uz citu saucu un sacīja: svēts, svēts, svēts ir Tas Kungs Cebaot, visa zeme ir pilna viņa godības!
And one called unto the other, and said, Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory.
4 Un sliekšņa pamati trīcēja no tām saucēju balsīm, un tas nams tapa pilns dūmu.
And the posts of the threshold shook at the voice of those that called aloud, and the house 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!
And I said, Woe is me! for I am lost; because a man of unclean lips am I, and in the midst of a people of unclean lips do I dwell; for the King, the Lord of hosts have my eyes seen.
6 Tad viens no tiem serafiem atskrēja pie manis, un viņa rokā bija degoša ogle, ko viņš ar stangām bija ņēmis no altāra.
Then flew unto me one of the seraphim, and in his hand was a live coal, with the tongs had he taken it from off 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 he touched therewith upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thy iniquity is departed, and thy sin is forgiven.
8 Un es dzirdēju Tā Kunga balsi sakām: ko Es sūtīšu un kas mums ies? Tad es sacīju: redzi, še es esmu, sūti mani.
And I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and 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 said, Go, and say unto this people, Hear indeed, but understand not; and see indeed, but know not.
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.
Obdurate will remain the heart of this people, and their ears will be heavy, and their eyes will be shut: so that they will not see with their eyes, nor hear with their ears, nor their hearts be understanding, so that they be converted, and healing be granted them.
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.
And I said, How long, O Lord? And he said, Until that cities be left waste without an inhabitant, and houses without man, and the soil be made desolate as a wilderness,
12 Jo Tas Kungs cilvēkus aizdzīs tālu nost, un atstātu vietu būs daudz zemes vidū.
And the Lord will have removed far away the men, and the depopulation be great in the midst of the land.
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 should a tenth part thereof yet remain, it will again be swept away: [yet] like the terebinth and the oak, which, when they cast their leaves, retain their stems, so remaineth the holy seed, its stem.
