< 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.
Nevertheless the dimness [shall] not [be] such as [was] in her distress, when at the first he lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun, and the land of Naphtali, and afterward did more grievously afflict [her by] the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, in Galilee of the nations.
2 Tie ļaudis, kas staigā tumsībā, redz lielu gaišumu; kas dzīvo nāves ēnas zemē, pār tiem spīd spožums.
The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shades of death, upon them hath the light shined.
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.
Thou hast multiplied the nation, [and] not increased the joy: they joy before thee according to the joy in harvest, [and] as [men] rejoice when they divide the spoil.
4 Jo viņu nastas jūgu un viņu muguras rīksti un viņu dzinēja dzenuli Tu esi salauzis kā Midijana laikā.
For thou hast broken the yoke of his burden, and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, as in the day of Midian.
5 Jo kurpes, autas uz kara troksni, un drēbes, apgānītas asinīm, taps sadedzinātas un no uguns aprītas.
For every battle of the warrior [is] with confused noise, and garments rolled in blood; but [this] shall be with burning [and] fuel of 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 to us a child is born, to us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
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.
Of the increase of [his] government and peace [there shall be] no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.
8 Tas Kungs vienu vārdu ir sūtījis pie Jēkaba, un tas ir nolaidies pie Israēla.
The LORD sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel.
9 Un visi ļaudis to samanīs, Efraīms un Samarijas iedzīvotāji, kas lielībā un sirds lepnībā saka:
And all the people shall know, [even] Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria, that say in the pride and stoutness of heart,
10 Ķieģeļi gruvuši, bet ar cirstiem akmeņiem atkal uztaisīsim, meža vīģu koki ir nocirsti, bet viņu vietā stādīsim ciedru kokus.
The bricks have fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones; the sycamores are cut down, but we will change [them into] cedars.
11 Jo Tas Kungs paaugstina Recina pretiniekus pār viņu un saskubina viņa ienaidniekus,
Therefore the LORD will set up the adversaries of Rezin against him, and join his enemies together;
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.
The Syrians before, and the Philistines behind; and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand [is] stretched out still.
13 Bet tie ļaudis negriežas pie Tā, kas tos sit, un nemeklē To Kungu Cebaot.
For the people turn not to him that smiteth them, neither do they seek the LORD of hosts.
14 Tādēļ Tas Kungs nocirtīs no Israēla galvu un asti, zaru un celmu vienā dienā.
Therefore the LORD will cut off from Israel head and tail, branch and rush, in one day.
15 Vecaji un augstie ir tā galva, bet pravietis, kas melus māca, tā aste.
The ancient and honorable, he [is] the head; and the prophet that teacheth lies, he [is] the tail.
16 Jo šo ļaužu vadoņi ir viltnieki, un kas no tiem top vadīti, tie iet bojā.
For the leaders of this people cause [them] to err; and [they that are] led by them [are] destroyed.
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 will have no joy in their young men, neither will have mercy on their fatherless and widows: for every one [is] a hypocrite and an evil-doer, and every mouth speaketh folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand [is] stretched out still.
18 Jo bezdievība deg kā uguns un aprij ērkšķus un dadžus un aizdedzina mežu biezumus un augsti dūmi paceļas gaisā.
For wickedness burneth as the fire: it shall devour the briers and thorns, and shall kindle in the thickets of the forest, and they shall mount up [like] the rising of smoke.
19 Jo caur Tā Kunga Cebaot bardzību zeme kvēlo, un ļaudis ir kā uguns barība, un viens otru nežēlo.
Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts is the land darkened, and the people shall be as the fuel of the fire: no man shall spare 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,
And he shall snatch on the right hand, and be hungry; and he shall eat on the left hand, and they shall not be satisfied: they shall eat every man 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.
Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh: [and] they together [shall be] against Judah. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand [is] stretched out still.
