< Jesajas 66 >
1 Tā saka Tas Kungs: Debesis ir Mans goda krēsls, un zeme ir Mans kāju pamesls; kur būtu tas nams, ko jūs Man taisītu, un kur būtu vieta priekš Manas dusas?
The LORD says: “Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What kind of house will you build to me? Where will I rest?
2 Jo Mana roka visas šīs lietas radījusi, un tā visas tās cēlušās, saka Tas Kungs; bet uz to Es skatīšos, proti uz nabagu, un kam sagrauzts gars, un kas priekš Mana Vārda dreb.
For my hand has made all these things, and so all these things came to be,” says the LORD: “but I will look to this man, even to he who is poor and of a contrite spirit, and who trembles at my word.
3 Kas vērsi nokauj, ir kā kas vīru nokauj; kas jēru upurē, ir kā kas sunim lauž kaklu; kas ēdamu upuri upurē, ir kā kas upurē cūku asinis; kas vīraku dedzina par piemiņas upuri, ir kā kas elku teic. Jo tie izvēlās savus pašu ceļus, un viņu dvēselei ir labs prāts pie savām negantībām.
He who kills an ox is as he who kills a man; he who sacrifices a lamb, as he who breaks a dog’s neck; he who offers an offering, as he who offers pig’s blood; he who burns frankincense, as he who blesses an idol. Yes, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delights in their abominations.
4 Tad arī Es tiem novēlēšu mokas un atvedīšu pār tiem briesmas, tāpēc ka Es saucu, un neviens neatbildēja, Es runāju, un neviens neklausīja, bet tie ir darījuši, kas ļauns priekš Manām acīm, un izvēlējušies, kas Man nepatika.
I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears on them, because when I called, no one answered; when I spoke, they didn’t listen, but they did that which was evil in my eyes, and chose that in which I didn’t delight.”
5 Klausiet Tā Kunga vārdu, kas Viņa vārdu bīstaties. Jūsu brāļi, kas jūs ienīst, kas jūs atstumj Mana Vārda dēļ, saka: lai Tas Kungs pagodinājās, ka mēs redzam jūsu prieku; bet tie taps kaunā.
Hear the LORD’s word, you who tremble at his word: “Your brothers who hate you, who cast you out for my name’s sake, have said, ‘Let the LORD be glorified, that we may see your joy;’ but it is those who shall be disappointed.
6 Trokšņa balss būs pilsētā, balss no Dieva nama, Tā Kunga balss, kas Saviem ienaidniekiem atmaksā, kā tie pelnījuši.
A voice of tumult from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the LORD that repays his enemies what they deserve.
7 Pirms nāca bērnu sāpes, viņa ir dzemdējusi, pirms viņai uzgāja bailība, viņai dēls ir dzimis.
“Before she travailed, she gave birth. Before her pain came, she delivered a son.
8 Kas jel jebkad šo dzirdējis, kas šādas lietas redzējis? Vai zeme var piedzimt vienā dienā, vai tautu var dzemdēt vienā reizē? Jo Ciāna, tikko tai bērnu sāpes uznāca, arī dzemdējusi savus bērnus.
Who has heard of such a thing? Who has seen such things? Shall a land be born in one day? Shall a nation be born at once? For as soon as Zion travailed, she gave birth to her children.
9 Vai Es liktu nākt līdz dzimšanai un neļautu dzemdēt? Saka Tas Kungs: Vai Es, kas dod spēku dzemdēt, atkal aizturētu? Saka tavs Dievs.
Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to be delivered?” says the LORD. “Shall I who cause to give birth shut the womb?” says your God.
10 Priecājaties ar Jeruzālemi un līksmojaties par viņu visi, kas to mīlējāt, priecājaties priecādamies ar viņu visi, kas par to bijāt noskumuši,
“Rejoice with Jerusalem, and be glad for her, all you who love her. Rejoice for joy with her, all you who mourn over her;
11 Ka zīžat un papilnam dabūjat no viņas iepriecināšanas krūtīm, ka baudāt un atspirdzinājaties no viņas godības pilnuma.
that you may nurse and be satisfied at the comforting breasts; that you may drink deeply, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.”
12 Jo tā saka Tas Kungs: redzi, Es vedīšu mieru pār to kā upi un pagānu godību kā izplūdušu strautu; tad jūs zīdīsiet, tapsiet klēpī nesti un uz ceļiem mīļi auklēti.
For the LORD says, “Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the nations like an overflowing stream, and you will nurse. You will be carried on her side, and will be dandled on her knees.
13 Tā kā tādu, ko māte iepriecina, tāpat Es jūs iepriecināšu, un Jeruzālemē jūs tapsiet iepriecināti.
As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you. You will be comforted in Jerusalem.”
14 Un jūs to redzēsiet, un jūsu sirds līksmosies, un jūsu kauli zaļos kā zāle. Tad Tā Kunga roka būs zināma visiem Viņa kalpiem, un Viņa ienaidniekiem Viņa dusmas.
You will see it, and your heart shall rejoice, and your bones will flourish like the tender grass. The LORD’s hand will be known among his servants; and he will have indignation against his enemies.
15 Jo redzi, Tas Kungs nāks ar uguni, un Viņa rati kā viesulis, bargi izgāzt Savu dusmību un rāt ar uguns liesmām.
For, behold, the LORD will come with fire, and his chariots will be like the whirlwind; to render his anger with fierceness, and his rebuke with flames of fire.
16 Jo ar uguni Tas Kungs tiesās un ar Savu zobenu visu miesu, un liels pulks būs Tā Kunga nokauto.
For the LORD will execute judgment by fire and by his sword on all flesh; and those slain by the LORD will be many.
17 Kas svētījās un šķīstās elku dārzos cits par citu un ēd cūkas gaļu un negantību un peles, tie kopā taps izdeldēti, saka Tas Kungs.
“Those who sanctify themselves and purify themselves to go to the gardens, following one in the middle, eating pig’s meat, abominable things, and the mouse, they shall come to an end together,” says the LORD.
18 Bet Es (zinu) viņu darbus un viņu domas! Notiks, ka Es sapulcināšu visas tautas un mēles, un tie nāks un redzēs Manu godību.
“For I know their works and their thoughts. The time comes that I will gather all nations and languages, and they will come, and will see my glory.
19 Un Es tiem celšu zīmi un sūtīšu no tiem izglābtiem pie pagāniem uz Taršišu, Pulu un Ludu, pie tiem stopu strēlniekiem, pie Tūbala un Javana, uz tālejām salām, kas Manu slavu nav dzirdējuši un Manu godību nav redzējuši, un tie tām tautām darīs zināmu Manu godību.
“I will set a sign among them, and I will send those who escape of them to the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, who draw the bow, to Tubal and Javan, to far-away islands, who have not heard my fame, nor have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the nations.
20 Un tie atvedīs visus jūsu brāļus no visām tautām Tam Kungam par upuri, uz zirgiem un ratiem un uz nestavām un uz zirgēzeļiem un uz čakliem kamieļiem, pie Mana svētā kalna uz Jeruzālemi, saka Tas Kungs, tā kā Israēla bērni upuri atnes šķīstā traukā uz Tā Kunga namu.
They shall bring all your brothers out of all the nations for an offering to the LORD, on horses, in chariots, in litters, on mules, and on camels, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, says the LORD, as the children of Israel bring their offering in a clean vessel into the LORD’s house.
21 Un arī no tiem Es ņemšu par priesteriem un par levitiem, saka Tas Kungs.
Of them I will also select priests and Levites,” says the LORD.
22 Jo tā kā tās jaunās debesis un tā jaunā zeme, ko Es radu, stāvēs Manā priekšā, saka Tas Kungs, tāpat stāvēs arī jūsu dzimums un jūsu vārds.
“For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me,” says the LORD, “so your offspring and your name shall remain.
23 Un notiks, ka visa miesa nāks ik jaunus mēnešus un ik svētdienas un pielūgs Manā priekšā, saka Tas Kungs.
It shall happen that from one new moon to another, and from one Sabbath to another, all flesh will come to worship before me,” says the LORD.
24 Un tie izies ārā un redzēs to nomirušo miesas, kas no Manis atkāpušies. Jo viņu tārps nemirs un viņu uguns neizdzisīs, un tie būs negantība visai miesai.
“They will go out, and look at the dead bodies of the men who have transgressed against me; for their worm will not die, nor will their fire be quenched, and they will be loathsome to all mankind.”
