Jeremijas 19
1 Tā saka Tas Kungs: ej un pērc sev no podnieka māla krūzi, un ņem pie sevis kādus no ļaužu vecajiem un no priesteru vecajiem.
This is what the LORD says: “Go and buy a clay jar from a potter. Take some of the elders of the people and leaders of the priests,
2 Un ej ārā uz Ben-Inoma ieleju, kas ir priekš Ķieģeļu vārtiem, un sludini tur tos vārdus, ko Es uz tevi runāšu,
and go out to the Valley of Ben-hinnom near the entrance of the Potsherd Gate. Proclaim there the words I speak to you,
3 Un saki: klausiet Tā Kunga vārdu, Jūda ķēniņi un Jeruzālemes iedzīvotāji! Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs: redzi, Es vedīšu nelaimi pār šo vietu, no kā visiem, kas to dzirdēs, ausīs skanēs.
saying, ‘Hear the word of the LORD, O kings of Judah and residents of Jerusalem. This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: I am going to bring such disaster on this place that the ears of all who hear of it will ring,
4 Tāpēc ka tie Mani atstāj un šo vietu svešiem nodevuši un tur kvēpinājuši svešiem dieviem, ko ne viņi, ne viņu tēvi, ne Jūda ķēniņi nav pazinuši, un to vietu piepildījuši ar nenoziedzīgām asinīm,
because they have abandoned Me and made this a foreign place. They have burned incense in this place to other gods that neither they nor their fathers nor the kings of Judah have ever known. They have filled this place with the blood of the innocent.
5 Un Baālam uztaisījuši altārus un savus bērnus ar uguni sadedzinājuši Baālam par dedzināmiem upuriem, ko Es neesmu pavēlējis, un neesmu runājis, un kas Man nav nācis sirdī.
They have built high places to Baal on which to burn their children in the fire as offerings to Baal—something I never commanded or mentioned, nor did it even enter My mind.
6 Tādēļ, redzi, nāks dienas, saka Tas Kungs, ka šī vieta vairs netaps nosaukta Tovete vai Ben-Inoma ieleja, bet slepkavu ieleja.
So behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when this place will no longer be called Topheth or the Valley of Ben-hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter.
7 Jo Es iznīcināšu Jūda un Jeruzālemes padomu šinī vietā, un tiem likšu krist caur zobenu priekš viņu ienaidniekiem un caur to rokām, kas viņu dvēseli meklē, un Es nodošu viņu miesas par barību putniem apakš debess un zvēriem virs zemes.
And in this place I will ruin the plans of Judah and Jerusalem. I will make them fall by the sword before their enemies, by the hands of those who seek their lives, and I will give their carcasses as food to the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth.
8 Un šo pilsētu Es likšu par posta vietu un par apsmieklu; visi, kas iet garām, tie iztrūksies un svilpos par visām viņu mokām.
I will make this city a desolation and an object of scorn. All who pass by will be appalled and will scoff at all her wounds.
9 Un Es tiem došu ēst viņu dēlu miesas un viņu meitu miesas, un tie ēdīs ikviens sava tuvāka miesas tais bēdās un bailēs, ar ko tos spaidīs viņu ienaidnieki un kas viņu dvēseles meklē.
I will make them eat the flesh of their sons and daughters, and they will eat one another’s flesh in the siege and distress inflicted on them by their enemies who seek their lives.’
10 Tad tev to krūzi būs sadauzīt priekš to vīru acīm, kas tev gājuši līdz,
Then you are to shatter the jar in the presence of the men who accompany you,
11 Un uz tiem sacīt: tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: tāpat es šos ļaudis un šo pilsētu sadauzīšu, tā kā sadauza māla trauku, kas vairs nevar vesels tapt, un Tovetē raks līķus, tāpēc ka citas kapu vietas nebūs.
and you are to proclaim to them that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: I will shatter this nation and this city, like one shatters a potter’s jar that can never again be repaired. They will bury the dead in Topheth until there is no more room to bury them.
12 Tā es šai vietai darīšu, saka Tas Kungs, un viņas iedzīvotājiem, un darīšu šo pilsētu kā Toveti.
This is what I will do to this place and to its residents, declares the LORD. I will make this city like Topheth.
13 Un Jeruzālemes nami un Jūda ķēniņu nami būs sagānīti, tā kā Tovetes vieta, un visi tie nami, uz kuru jumtiem tie kvēpinājuši visam debess spēkam un dzeramus upurus upurējuši svešiem dieviem.
The houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah will be defiled like that place, Topheth—all the houses on whose rooftops they burned incense to all the host of heaven and poured out drink offerings to other gods.”
14 Kad nu Jeremija no Tovetes pārnāca, kurp Tas Kungs viņu bija sūtījis sludināt, tad viņš nostājās Tā Kunga nama pagalmā un sacīja uz visu tautu:
Then Jeremiah returned from Topheth, where the LORD had sent him to prophesy, and he stood in the courtyard of the house of the LORD and proclaimed to all the people,
15 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs: redzi, Es likšu nākt pār šo pilsētu un visām viņas pilsētām visai nelaimei, ko Es par to esmu runājis, tādēļ ka tie savu pakausi apcietinājuši un Manus Vārdus nav klausījuši.
“This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Behold, I am about to bring on this city and on all the villages around it every disaster I have pronounced against them, because they have stiffened their necks so as not to heed My words.’”
