Jesajas 60
1 Celies, topi apgaismota, jo tava gaisma nāk, un Tā Kunga godība uzlec pār tevi.
[You people of] Jerusalem [PRS], stand up! Yahweh has done glorious things for you, and he has acted powerfully for you; so show others that he is very great!
2 Jo redzi, tumsība apklāj zemi un krēslība ļaudis, bet pār tevi uzlēks Tas Kungs, un Viņa godība pār tevi rādīsies.
[But spiritual] darkness has covered [all the other people-groups on] the earth, complete darkness, but Yahweh will show you how great he is, and other people will also see it.
3 Un pagāni staigās tavā gaismā un ķēniņi tai spožumā, kas pār tevi uzlēcis.
By seeing what he has done for you, [people of all] people-groups will see that he is very great, and kings will come to see the wonderful things that have happened to you.
4 Pacel savas acis visapkārt un skaties: visi tie ir sapulcināti un nāk pie tevis. Tavi dēli nāk no tālienes, un tavas meitas uz rokām top atnestas.
[Yahweh says], “Look around and you will see the people who will be returning from (exile/countries to which they have been forced to go)! Your sons will come from distant countries; others will carry your [little] daughters home.
5 Tad tu redzēsi un izplūdīsi kā upe, un tava sirds brīnīsies un izpletīsies, jo jūras draudze pie tevis atgriezīsies un pagānu spēks nāks pie tevis.
When you look at this happening, you will be very joyful [DOU], because people will bring valuable goods to you [from all around the world]. They will bring in ships valuable things from [many] nations.
6 Tevi apklās kamieļu pulks, čaklie kamieļi no Midijanas un Epas, visi tie nāks no Sabas, zeltu un vīraku tie atnesīs un teiks Tā Kunga slavu.
People will [also] bring valuable goods to you on herds/caravans of camels: Camels from the Midian and Ephah [areas of northern Arabia]. And from Sheba [in southern Arabia] they will come, bringing gold and frankincense; they will all come to praise [me], Yahweh.
7 Visas avis no Ķedara sapulcēsies pie tevis, tie auni no Nebajota tev kalpos, tie nāks par labprātību uz Manu altāri, un Es pagodināšu Savas godības namu.
They will bring flocks [of sheep and goats] from Kedar [in northern Arabia and give them] to you. [They will bring] [PRS] rams from Nebaioth for you [to sacrifice] on my altars, and I will accept them [happily]. [At that time] I will cause my temple to be very beautifully decorated.
8 Kas ir tie, kas skriedami nāk kā padebeši, un kā baloži pie saviem logiem?
And what are those things that are moving swiftly like [SIM] clouds? They resemble [SIM] doves [returning] to their nests.
9 Jo salas gaida uz Mani un Taršiša kuģi iet papriekš, tavus bērnus atvest no tālienes, un viņu zeltu un sudrabu līdz ar tiem, Tā Kunga, tava Dieva vārdam un tam Svētajam iekš Israēla; jo Viņš tevi pagodinājis.
But they are really ships from Tarshish that are bringing your people back here. When your people come, they will bring with them [all] the valuable possessions that they have acquired, and [they will do that] to honor [me], Yahweh, your God, the Holy One of Israel, because I will have greatly honored you.
10 Un sveši uzcels tavus mūrus, un viņu ķēniņi tev kalpos; jo Savā dusmībā Es tevi esmu sitis, bet Savā žēlastībā Es par tevi esmu apžēlojies.
Foreigners will [come and] rebuild the walls of your [cities], and their kings will serve/help you. Although I punished you because I was angry with you, these things will happen now because I will act mercifully toward you because I am kind.
11 Un tavi vārti stāvēs vienmēr vaļā un netaps aizslēgti ne dienu ne nakti, ka pie tevis var atvest pagānu spēku un viņu ķēniņus ar pavadīšanu.
The gates of your [cities] will be open during the day and [also] during the night, in order that people will be able to bring into your cities valuable things from [many] countries, with their kings being led to you in the processions.
12 Jo tās tautas un valstis, kas tev negrib kalpot, ies bojā, un šīs tautas pavisam taps izdeldētas.
And the kingdoms and nations whose [people] refuse to allow you to rule them will be completely destroyed [DOU].
13 Lībanus godība nāks pie tevis, priede, kļava un bukses koks, tie visi, un pušķos Mana svētuma vietu, un Es pagodināšu to vietu, kur Manas kājas dus.
The glorious/beautiful things in Lebanon will be brought to you— [lumber from] cypress [trees] and fir [trees] and pine [trees]— to be used to make my temple beautiful. When that is done, my temple [MTY] will [truly] be glorious!
14 Un pazemīgi nāks pie tevis tavu spaidītāju bērni, un visi, kas tevi zaimojuši, klanīsies līdz tavām pēdām un tevi nosauks par Tā Kunga pilsētu, par Ciānu, kur tas Israēla Svētais.
The descendants of those who (oppressed you/treated you cruelly) will come and bow down to you; those who despised you will prostrate themselves in front of your feet. They will say that your city on Zion Hill is the City of Yahweh, where the Holy One of Israel lives.
15 Par to, ka tu esi bijusi atstāta un ienīdēta un neapmeklēta, Es tevi iecelšu par mūžīgu greznumu, par prieku līdz cilšu ciltīm.
Previously everyone hated you and ignored you, but now your [city] will be majestic/honored forever; and [I will cause you to be] joyful forever.
16 Un tu zīdīsi pagānu pienu, un ķēniņu krūtis tu zīdīsi. Un tu atzīsi, ka Es, Tas Kungs, esmu tavs Pestītājs un tavs izglābējs, tas varenais iekš Jēkaba.
People of all nations and their kings will gladly bring [MET] their wealth to you. And [when that happens], you will realize that I truly am Yahweh, the one who saves you and rescues you [from your enemies], and that I am the mighty one to whom you Israeli people belong.
17 Vara vietā Es atnesīšu zeltu, un dzelzs vietā Es atnesīšu sudrabu un koku vietā varu un akmeņu vietā dzelzi, un darīšu mieru par tavu valdītāju un taisnību par tavu uzraugu.
Instead of [metals that are not valuable, like] bronze and iron, I will bring to you silver and gold. Instead of wood and stones, I will bring you bronze and iron [for your buildings]. There will be peace in your country, and your rulers will do what is fair/just.
18 Varas darbs tavā zemē vairs netaps dzirdēts, un ne posts ne pazušana tavās robežās, bet tu nosauksi pestīšanu par saviem mūriem un slavu par saviem vārtiem.
People in your country will no longer act violently, and people will no longer destroy your land and cause it to become desolate/ruined. The people in the city will be safe, and everyone there will praise me [MTY].
19 Saule tev vairs nebūs par gaismu dienā, nedz mēnesis tev spīdēs par spīdekli, bet Tas Kungs tev būs par mūžīgu gaismu, un tavs Dievs par tavu greznumu.
And you will no longer need the sun and moon to give you light, because [I], Yahweh, will give you more light [than the sun and moon]; I will be a glorious light for you forever.
20 Tava saule vairs nenoies un tavs mēnesis vairs nemainīsies; jo Tas Kungs tev būs par mūžīgu gaismu, un tavām skumju dienām būs gals.
[It will seem as though] the sun and moon will always be shining [LIT], because [I], Yahweh, will be an everlasting light for you. You will never again be sad [because of things that happen to you].
21 Un tavi ļaudis būs visnotaļ taisni, tie turēs to zemi par īpašumu mūžam, tie būs Manis dēstīts zars un Manu roku darbs, Man par godu.
Your people will all be righteous, and they will occupy the land forever, because I myself have put you there [like people plant trees] [MET] in order that you will show others that I am very great.
22 Tas mazākais paliks par tūkstoti un tas sīkākais par varenu tautu. Es Tas Kungs to pasteigšu (izpildīt) savā laikā.
At that time, the [groups that are] very small now will become [very large] clans, and small clans will become great nations. [All those things will happen because], I, Yahweh, will cause them to happen at the right time.”
