Jesajas 9
1 Bet tumsība nepaliks, kur (tagad) bēdas; pirmajā laikā Viņš kaunā licis Zebulona zemi un Naftalus zemi, bet pastara laikā Viņš cels godā jūrmalu, AizJardāni un pagānu Galileju.
Drink this first. Act quickly, O land of Zabulon, land of Nephthalim, and the rest [inhabiting] the sea-coast, and [the land] beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles.
2 Tie ļaudis, kas staigā tumsībā, redz lielu gaišumu; kas dzīvo nāves ēnas zemē, pār tiem spīd spožums.
O people walking in darkness, behold a great light: you that dwell in the region [and] shadow of death, a light shall shine upon you.
3 To tautu Tu esi vairojis; lielu prieku Tu tai esi devis; tie priecāsies Tavā priekšā, tā kā priecājās pļaujamā laikā, tā kā līksmojās laupījumu dalot.
The multitude of the people which you have brought down in your joy, they shall even rejoice before you as they that rejoice in harvest, and as they that divide the spoil.
4 Jo viņu nastas jūgu un viņu muguras rīksti un viņu dzinēja dzenuli Tu esi salauzis kā Midijana laikā.
Because the yoke that was laid upon them has been taken away, and the rod that was on their neck: for he has broken the rod of the exactors, as in the day of Madiam.
5 Jo kurpes, autas uz kara troksni, un drēbes, apgānītas asinīm, taps sadedzinātas un no uguns aprītas.
For they shall compensate for every garment that has been acquired by deceit, and [all] raiment with restitution; and they shall be willing, [even] if they were burnt with fire.
6 Jo viens bērns mums dzimis, viens dēls mums dots, un valdība ir uz Viņa kamieša; un Viņa vārds top saukts: Brīnums, Padoma devējs, Varenais Dievs, Mūžīgais tēvs, Miera lielkungs.
For a child is born to us, and a son is given to us, whose government is upon his shoulder: and his name is called the Messenger of great counsel: for I will bring peace upon the princes, and health to him.
7 Lai valdība top vairota, un mieram nav gala uz Dāvida goda krēsla un Viņa valstībā, ka Viņš to sataisa un stiprina ar tiesu un taisnību no šī laika mūžīgi. To darīs Tā Kunga Cebaot karstums.
His government shall be great, and of his peace there is no end: [it shall be] upon the throne of David, and [upon] his kingdom, to establish it, and to support [it] with judgement and with righteousness, from henceforth and forever. The seal of the Lord of hosts shall perform this.
8 Tas Kungs vienu vārdu ir sūtījis pie Jēkaba, un tas ir nolaidies pie Israēla.
The Lord has sent death upon Jacob, and it has come upon Israel.
9 Un visi ļaudis to samanīs, Efraīms un Samarijas iedzīvotāji, kas lielībā un sirds lepnībā saka:
And all the people of Ephraim, and they that lived in Samaria shall know, who say in their pride and lofty heart,
10 Ķieģeļi gruvuši, bet ar cirstiem akmeņiem atkal uztaisīsim, meža vīģu koki ir nocirsti, bet viņu vietā stādīsim ciedru kokus.
The bricks are fallen down, but come, let us hew stones, and cut down sycamores and cedars, and let us build for ourselves a tower.
11 Jo Tas Kungs paaugstina Recina pretiniekus pār viņu un saskubina viņa ienaidniekus,
And God shall dash down them that rise up against him on mount Sion, and shall scatter his enemies;
12 Sīriešus no rītiem un Fīlistus no vakariem, ka tie Israēli ēd pilnā mutē. Ar visu to Viņa dusmība nenovēršas, un Viņa roka vēl ir izstiepta.
[even] Syria from the rising of the sun, and the Greeks from the setting of the sun, who devour Israel with open mouth. For all this [his] anger is not turned away, but still [his] hand is exalted.
13 Bet tie ļaudis negriežas pie Tā, kas tos sit, un nemeklē To Kungu Cebaot.
But the people turned not until they were struck, and they sought not the Lord.
14 Tādēļ Tas Kungs nocirtīs no Israēla galvu un asti, zaru un celmu vienā dienā.
So the Lord took away from Israel the head and tail, great and small, in one day:
15 Vecaji un augstie ir tā galva, bet pravietis, kas melus māca, tā aste.
the old man, and them that respect persons, this is the head; and the prophet teaching unlawful things, he is the tail.
16 Jo šo ļaužu vadoņi ir viltnieki, un kas no tiem top vadīti, tie iet bojā.
And they that pronounce this people blessed shall mislead them; and they mislead them that they may devour them.
17 Tādēļ Tas Kungs par viņu jaunekļiem nepriecāsies un neapžēlosies par viņu bāriņiem un atraitnēm, jo tie visi ir blēži un ļaundari, un ikviena mute runā blēņas. Ar visu to Viņa dusmība nenovēršas, un Viņa roka vēl ir izstiepta.
Therefore the Lord shall not take pleasure in their young men, neither shall he have pity on their orphans or on their widows: for they are all transgressors and wicked, and every mouth speaks unjustly. For all this [his] anger is not turned away, but [his] hand is yet exalted.
18 Jo bezdievība deg kā uguns un aprij ērkšķus un dadžus un aizdedzina mežu biezumus un augsti dūmi paceļas gaisā.
And iniquity shall burn as fire, and shall be devoured by fire as dry grass: and it shall burn in the thickets of the wood, and shall devour all that is round about the hills.
19 Jo caur Tā Kunga Cebaot bardzību zeme kvēlo, un ļaudis ir kā uguns barība, un viens otru nežēlo.
The whole earth is set on fire because of the fierce anger of the Lord, and the people shall be as men burnt by fire: no man shall pity his brother.
20 Pa labo roku rij, un tomēr ir izsalkuši, un pa kreiso roku ēd, un tomēr nav paēduši, ikkatrs ēd sava elkoņa miesu,
But [one] shall turn aside to the right hand, for he shall be hungry; and shall eat on the left, and a man shall by no means be satisfied with eating the flesh of his own arm.
21 Manasus Efraīmu, un Efraīms Manasu, un abi kopā pret Jūdu. Ar visu to Viņa dusmība nenovēršas, un Viņa roka vēl ir izstiepta.
For Manasses shall eat [the flesh] of Ephraim, and Ephraim [the flesh] of Manasses; for they shall besiege Juda together. For all this [his] anger is not turned away, but [his] hand is yet exalted.
