< Jesajas 65 >
1 Es topu meklēts no tiem, kas pēc Manis nevaicāja, Es topu atrasts no tiem, kas Mani nemeklēja. Es esmu sacījis uz tautu, kas Manu vārdu nepiesauca: redzi, še Es esmu, redzi, še Es esmu.
I have let myself be consulted by them who had not asked, I have suffered myself to be found by them who had not sought me, —I have said, Here I am! Here I am! Unto a nation that had not been called by my name,
2 Es izplešu Savas rokas cauru dienu uz pārgalvīgiem ļaudīm, kas uz nelaba ceļa staigā pēc savām pašu domām,
I have spread out my hands all the day, Unto a rebellious people, —Who walk In the way that is not good, After their own devices.
3 Uz ļaudīm, kas vienmēr Mani kaitina, kas Manā priekšā upurē dārzos un kvēpina uz ķieģeļiem,
The people who are provoking me to anger to my face continually, —Sacrificing in gardens, and Burning incense upon bricks;
4 Kas sēž pie kapenēm un kapu alās paliek pa naktīm un ēd cūku gaļu, un negantas sulas ir viņu traukos.
Who tarry among graves, And in the secret places, do lodge, Who eat the flesh of swine, And the broth of refuse things is in their vessels, —
5 Kas saka: paliec, nenāc man klāt, jo es esmu svēts priekš tevis. Šie būs par dūmiem Manā dusmībā, par uguni, kas deg cauru dienu.
Who say—Draw near by thyself, Do not approach with me, For I am holier than thou! These, are A smoke in my nostrils, A fire, burning all the day.
6 Redzi, tas ir Manā priekšā rakstīts: Es necietīšu klusu, bet Es atmaksāšu, un pat viņu azotē Es atmaksāšu
Lo! it is written before me, —I will not keep silence, But I have recompensed, and will recompense into their bosom:
7 Jūsu noziegumus un jūsu tēvu noziegumus kopā, saka Tas Kungs, ka ir kvēpinājuši uz kalniem un Mani zaimojuši uz pakalniem; tāpēc viņu algu Es papriekš atmaksāšu viņu azotē.
Your own iniquities, And the, iniquities of your fathers together, Saith Yahweh, Who have burned incense upon the mountains, And upon the hills, have reproached me, —Therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom.
8 Tā saka Tas Kungs: tā kā kad vīnu atrod ķekarā un saka: nemaitā to, jo svētība tur iekšā, tāpat Es darīšu Savu kalpu dēļ, ka Es tos visus nenomaitāju.
Thus, saith Yahweh—As, new wine, is found, in the cluster, And one saith, Do not destroy it, for a blessing is in it, So, will I do for the sake of my servants, That I may not destroy the whole [nation];
9 Bet Es no Jēkaba radīšu dzimumu un no Jūda, kas manto Manus kalnus, un Mani izredzētie to iemantos, un Mani kalpi tur dzīvos.
Therefore will I bring forth Out of Jacob, a seed, and Out of Judah, an inheritor of my mountains, That my chosen ones may inherit it, And, my servants, dwell there;
10 Un Šarons taps par avju ganībām, un Ahora ieleja par lopu laidaru priekš Maniem ļaudīm, kas Mani meklējuši.
Then shall, Sharon, become, a fold for flocks, And the vale of Achor for the lying down of herds, —For my people who have sought me.
11 Bet jūs, kas no Tā Kunga atkāpušies, kas Manu svēto kalnu aizmirstat un galdu sataisiet tam Gad (Liktenim) un dzeramus upurus ielejat tai Meni (Laimei), -
But, ye are they—Who forsake Yahweh Who forget my holy mountain—Who prepare, for Fortune, a table and Who fill for Destiny, mixed wine;
12 Es jūs arī nolikšu zobenam, ka jums visiem būs locīties pie kaušanas, tāpēc ka Es esmu aicinājis, bet jūs neesat atbildējuši, Es esmu runājis, un jūs neesat klausījuši, bet darījuši, kas ļauns bija Manās acīs, un izraudzījušies, kas Man nepatika.
Therefore will I destine you to the sword, And, ye all, to the slaughter, shall bow down. Because I called and ye answered not, I spake, and ye hearkened not, —But did that which was wicked in mine eyes, And of that wherein I delighted not, ye made choice,
13 Tādēļ Tas Kungs Dievs tā saka: redzi, Mani kalpi ēdīs, bet jūs būsiet izsalkuši; redzi, Mani kalpi dzers, bet jūs iztvīksiet; redzi, Mani kalpi priecāsies, bet jūs tapsiet kaunā;
Therefore, Thus, saith My Lord, Yahweh, —Lo! my servants, shall eat but, ye, shall be famished, Lo! my servants, shall drink but, ye shall be thirsty, —Lo! my servants, shall rejoice but ye, shall turn pale;
14 Redzi, Mani kalpi gavilēs sirds priekā, bet jūs brēksiet sirdēstos un kauksiet satriektā garā.
Lo! my servants, shall shout in triumph for mirth of heart But, ye, shall make outcry, for pain of heart, And for a breaking of spirit, shall ye howl.
15 Un jūs atstāsiet savu vārdu Maniem izredzētiem par lāstu vārdu, un Tas Kungs Dievs tevi nokaus, bet Savus kalpus Viņš nosauks ar citu vārdu;
So shall ye leave your name for an oath, to my chosen ones, —So then My Lord Yahweh, will slay thee, —And his servants, will he, call by another name:
16 Un kas virs zemes svētīsies, tas svētīsies pie tā patiesā Dieva, un kas virs zemes zvērēs, tas zvērēs pie tā patiesā Dieva; jo tās pirmās bēdas būs aizmirstas un priekš Manām acīm apslēptas.
So that he who blesseth himself in the earth, Will bless himself in the God of faithfulness, And he who sweareth in the earth Will swear by the God of faithfulness—Because the former troubles have been forgotten, and Because they are hid from mine eyes.
17 Jo redzi, Es radu jaunas debesis un jaunu zemi, un tās pirmās lietas vairs nepieminēs, un tās vairs nenāks prātā.
For, behold me! Creating new heavens, and a new earth, —And the former shall not be mentioned, neither shall they come up on the heart,
18 Bet priecājaties un līksmojaties mūžīgi mūžam par to, ko Es radu. Jo redzi, Es radīšu Jeruzālemi par prieku un viņas ļaudis par līksmību.
But joy ye and exult, perpetually, in what I am about to create, —For, behold me! Creating Jerusalem an exultation and Her People a joy;
19 Un Es priecāšos par Jeruzālemi un līksmošos par Saviem ļaudīm, un tur vairs netaps dzirdēta ne raudāšanas balss, ne kaukšanas balss.
Therefore will I Exult in Jerusalem, and Joy in my People, —And there shall be heard in her, no more The sound of weeping, or the sound of a cry:
20 Tur nebūs vairs bērniņi, kas ilgi nedzīvos, nedz veci, kas savas dienas nepiepilda; bet jauneklis mirs simts gadus vecs būdams, un bezdievīgais taps nolādēts simts gadus vecs būdams.
There shall be thenceforward, no more, A suckling of a few days, or an elder Who filleth not up his days, —But, a youth a hundred years old, may die, Yea a sinner a hundred years old, shall be accursed,
21 Un tie uztaisīs namus un dzīvos iekš tiem, tie dēstīs vīna dārzus un ēdīs viņu augļus.
Then shall they build houses and dwell in them, —And plant vineyards and eat the fruit of them;
22 Tie neuztaisīs, lai cits tur dzīvo, un nedēstīs, lai cits to ēd; jo Manu ļaužu mūžs būs ka koku mūžs un Mani izredzētie baudīs savu roku darbu.
They shall not build, and another, dwell, They shall not plant, and, another, eat, —For as the days of a tree, shall be the days of my people, And, the work of their own hands, shall my chosen ones, use to the full:
23 Tie nestrādās velti, nedz dzemdēs bērnus briesmīgam galam. Jo tie ir Tā Kunga svētīto dzimums un viņu bērnu bērni līdz ar tiem.
They shall not labour in vain, Nor have children for terror, —For the seed of the blessed ones of Yahweh, shall they be, And their offspring, with them.
24 Un notiks, pirms tie sauc, tad Es atbildēšu, kad tie vēl runā, tad Es klausīšu.
And it shall come to pass—That before they call, I, will answer, And while yet they are speaking, I, will hear.
25 Vilki un jēri ies kopā ganos un lauva ēdīs salmus kā vērsis, un pīšļi būs čūskas barība; tie nedarīs ļauna un nedarīs posta visā Manā svētā kalnā, saka Tas Kungs.
The wolf and the lamb, shall feed, in unity, And, the lion, as an ox, shall eat straw; But as for the serpent, dust, shall be his food: They shall not harm—Nor shall they destroy, In all my holy mountain, saith Yahweh.
