< 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 in which King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne high and lifted up, 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.
Around him stood seraphs; each one of them had six wings; with two he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he did 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 to another, and said: Holy, holy, holy is Jehovah 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 foundations of the thresholds were shaken with the voice of their cry. 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, Alas for me! I am undone! For I am a man of unclean lips, and dwell among a people of unclean lips, and mine eyes have seen the King, Jehovah 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 flew one of the seraphs to me, having in his hands a glowing stone, which he had taken with the 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 he touched my mouth, and said, Behold, this toucheth thy lips, and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin is expiated.
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: Behold, 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 thou to this people, Hear ye, indeed, but understand not; See ye, indeed, but perceive 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.
Make the heart of this people gross; Make their ears dull, and blind their eyes; That they may not see with their eyes, nor hear with their ears, Nor perceive 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 said I, How long, Lord? He said: Until the cities be laid waste, so that there be no inhabitant, And the houses, so that there be no man, And the land be left utterly desolate;
12 Jo Tas Kungs cilvēkus aizdzīs tālu nost, un atstātu vietu būs daudz zemes vidū.
Until Jehovah have removed the men far away, And there be great desolation in 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 though there be a tenth part remaining in it, Even this shall again be destroyed; Yet as when the terebinth and the oak are cut down, Their stem remaineth alive, So shall a holy race be the stem of the nation.
