< Jeremijas 1 >

1 Jeremijas vārdi, kas bija Hilķijas dēls, no tiem priesteriem Anatotā Benjamina zemē.
The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests that were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin:
2 Uz to Tā Kunga vārds notika Josijas, Amona dēla, Jūda ķēniņa dienās, viņa valdīšanas trīspadsmitā gadā.
To whom the word of the LORD came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign.
3 Tāpat uz viņu notika Jojaķima, Josijas dēla, Jūda ķēniņa dienās, kamēr beidzās Cedeķijas, Josijas dēla, Jūda ķēniņa, vienpadsmitais gads, kad Jeruzālemes ļaudis tapa aizvesti piektā mēnesī.
It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, to the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah king of Judah, to the carrying away of Jerusalem captive in the fifth month.
4 Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz mani un sacīja:
Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
5 Pirms Es tevi radīju mātes miesās, Es tevi esmu pazinis, un pirms tu iznāci no mātes miesām, Es tevi esmu svētījis; tautām par pravieti Es tevi esmu licis.
Before I formed thee in the womb I knew thee; and before thou wast born I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet to the nations.
6 Tad es sacīju: ak Kungs, Dievs, redzi, es neprotu runāt, jo es esmu jauns.
Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child.
7 Bet Tas Kungs uz mani sacīja: nesaki, es esmu jauns; jo visur, kurp Es tevi sūtīšu, tev būs iet, un visu, ko Es tev pavēlēšu, tev būs runāt.
But the LORD said to me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatever I command thee thou shalt speak.
8 Nebīsties no viņiem, jo Es esmu ar tevi un tevi izglābšu, saka Tas Kungs.
Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD.
9 Un Tas Kungs izstiepa Savu roku un aizskāra manu muti, un Tas Kungs sacīja uz mani: redzi, Es lieku Savus vārdus tavā mutē.
Then the LORD put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the LORD said to me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth.
10 Redzi, Es tevi šodien ieceļu pār tautām un pār valstīm, izraut un salauzīt un izdeldēt un izpostīt, tad uztaisīt un dēstīt.
See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.
11 Un Tā Kunga vārds uz mani notika un sacīja: ko tu redzi, Jeremija? Un es sacīju: es redzu zizli (mandeļu koka zaru).
Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying, Jeremiah, what seest thou? And I said, I see a rod of an almond tree.
12 Un Tas Kungs uz mani sacīja: tu esi labi redzējis; jo Es būšu nomodā par Savu vārdu, ka Es to daru.
Then said the LORD to me, Thou hast well seen: for I will hasten my word to perform it.
13 Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz mani otru reiz un sacīja: ko tu redzi? Un es sacīju: es redzu verdošu podu no ziemeļa puses.
And the word of the LORD came to me the second time, saying, What seest thou? And I said, I see a boiling pot; and its face is toward the north.
14 Un Tas Kungs uz mani sacīja: no ziemeļa puses ļaunums gāzīsies pār visiem zemes iedzīvotājiem.
Then the LORD said to me, Out of the north an evil shall break forth upon all the inhabitants of the land.
15 Jo redzi, Es saucu visas ķēniņu valstu ciltis no ziemeļa puses, saka Tas Kungs, un tie nāks un cels ikviens savu krēslu priekš Jeruzālemes vārtu durvīm un pret visiem viņas mūriem visapkārt un pret visām Jūda pilsētām.
For, lo, I will call all the families of the kingdoms of the north, saith the LORD; and they shall come, and they shall set every one his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all its walls on every side, and against all the cities of Judah.
16 Un Es spriedīšu Savu sodību pret viņiem par visu viņu ļaunumu, ka tie Mani atstājuši un kvēpinājuši citiem dieviem un klanījušies priekš savu roku darba.
And I will utter my judgments against them concerning all their wickedness, who have forsaken me, and have burned incense to other gods, and worshipped the works of their own hands.
17 Tu tad apjoz savus gurnus un celies un runā uz tiem visu, ko Es tev pavēlēšu; neiztrūcinājies priekš viņiem, lai Es tevi neiztrūcināju viņu priekšā.
Thou therefore gird up thy loins, and arise, and speak to them all that I command thee: be not dismayed at their faces, lest I confound thee before them.
18 Jo redzi, Es tevi šodien ceļu par stipru pilsētu un par dzelzs stabu un par vara mūri pret visu šo zemi, pret Jūda ķēniņiem, pret viņu lielkungiem, pret viņu priesteriem un pret tās zemes ļaudīm.
For, behold, I have made thee this day a fortified city, and an iron pillar, and brasen walls against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, against its princes, against its priests, and against the people of the land.
19 Un tie karos pret tevi, bet nekā neiespēs pret tevi; jo Es esmu ar tevi, saka Tas Kungs, tevi izglābt.
And they shall fight against thee; but they shall not prevail against thee; for I am with thee, saith the LORD, to deliver thee.
