Jeremijas 22
1 Tā saka Tas Kungs: noej Jūda ķēniņa namā un runā tur šo vārdu
Thus said the Lord, Go down to the house of the king of Judah, and speak there this word;
2 Un saki: klausi Tā Kunga vārdu, Jūda ķēniņ, kas sēdi Dāvida goda krēslā, tu un tavi kalpi un tavi ļaudis, visi, kas ieejat pa šiem vārtiem.
And thou shalt say, Hear the word of the Lord, O king of Judah, that sittest upon the throne of David, thou, and thy servants, and thy people that enter in by these gates:
3 Tā saka Tas Kungs: nesiet tiesu un taisnību un izglābiet aplaupīto no spaidītāja rokas, un neplēšat svešinieku, bāriņu, atraitni, nedariet varas darbu un neizlejat šai vietā nenoziedzīgas asinis.
Thus hath said the Lord, Execute ye justice and righteousness, and deliver him that is robbed out of the hand of the oppressor; and the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow shall ye not oppress, and do them no violence, and shed no innocent blood in this place.
4 Jo kad jūs tā darīsiet, tad pa šā nama vārtiem ieies ķēniņi, kas sēdēs uz Dāvida goda krēsla, un brauks ar ratiem un zirgiem, pats un viņa kalpi un viņa ļaudis.
For if ye indeed will do this thing, then shall enter in through the gates of this house kings sitting after David upon his throne, riding in chariots and on horses, he, and his servants, and his people.
5 Bet ja jūs šos vārdus neklausīsiet, tad Es pie Sevis esmu zvērējis, saka Tas Kungs, ka šim namam būs palikt par posta vietu.
But if ye will not hear these words, then do I swear by myself, saith the Lord, that this house shall become a ruin.
6 Jo tā saka Tas Kungs par Jūda ķēniņa namu: tu Man esi kā Gileāda, kā Lībanus galva, bet tiešām, Es tevi darīšu par tuksnesi un tās pilsētas bez iedzīvotājiem.
For thus hath said the Lord concerning the house of the king of Judah, A Gil'ad [though] thou art unto me, a summit of the Lebanon: yet I will surely change thee into a wilderness, cities which are not inhabited.
7 Jo Es pret tevi iecelšu postītājus, ikvienu ar saviem ieročiem; tie nocirtīs tavus labākos ciedru kokus un tos metīs ugunī.
And I will make ready against thee destroyers, every one with his weapons: and they shall cut down the choice of thy cedars, and cast them into the fire.
8 Tad daudz pagānu šai pilsētai ies garām un sacīs cits uz citu: kādēļ Tas Kungs šai lielai pilsētai tā darījis?
And [when] many nations [then] pass by this city, they will say every man to his neighbor, Wherefore hath the Lord done the like unto this great city?
9 Un tie sacīs: tādēļ ka tie atstājuši Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, derību un zemē metušies priekš citiem dieviem un tiem kalpojuši.
Then shall they say, Because they had forsaken the covenant of the Lord their God, and bowed down unto other gods, and served them.
10 Neraudiet par nomirušo un nežēlojiet viņu; raudiet raudādami par to, kas aiziet, jo tas neatgriezīsies atpakaļ, redzēt savas dzimtenes zemi.
Weep not for the dead, and do not bemoan him: weep sorely for him that goeth away; for he shall never return any more, and see the land of his birth.
11 Jo tā saka Tas Kungs par Šallumu, Josijas dēlu, Jūda ķēniņu, kas valda sava tēva Josijas vietā, kas no šās vietas aizgājis: viņš vairs negriezīsies atpakaļ,
For thus hath said the Lord respecting Shallum the son of Josiah the king of Judah, who reigneth in the place of Josiah his father, who is gone forth out of this place, He shall never return thither any more;
12 Bet tai vietā, kurp tie viņu aizveduši, viņš mirs un šo zemi viņš vairs neredzēs.
But in the place whither they have led him into exile, there shall he die; but this land shall he not see any more.
13 Vai tam, kas savu namu uztaisa ar netaisnību un savas istabas ar viltu, kas savam tuvākam liek velti strādāt, un tam nedod savu algu,
Woe unto him that buildeth his house by unrighteousness, and his chambers by injustice; that maketh his neighbor work without wages, and giveth him not the reward for his labor;
14 Kas domā: es sev uztaisīšu augstu namu un plašas istabas, un liek sev logus izcirst un ar ciedru kokiem apsegt un ar sarkanumu apsvaidīt.
That saith, I will build me a roomy house, and ample chambers, and cutteth himself out windows, and ceileth it with cedar, and painteth it with colors.
15 Vai tu domā valdīt, tādēļ ka tu ar ciedru kokiem greznojies? Vai tavs tēvs neēda un nedzēra un darīja tiesu un taisnību? Tad viņam labi klājās.
Shalt thou reign, because thou strivest to excel with cedar buildings? behold, thy father ate and drank, but he executed justice and righteousness: then was it well with him!
16 Viņš izdeva tiesu nabagam un bēdīgam, tad viņam labi klājās. Vai tas nav mani atzīt? saka Tas Kungs.
He judged the cause of the poor and needy; then was it well: is not this the proper knowledge of me? saith the Lord.
17 Bet tavas acis un tava sirds uz citu neskatās kā vien mantu krāt un nenoziedzīgas asinis izliet, apspiest un darīt varas darbu.
But thy eyes and thy heart are directed on nothing but upon thy own gain, and upon innocent blood to shed it, and upon oppression, and upon extortion, to practise them.
18 Tādēļ, tā saka Tas Kungs par Jojaķimu, Josijas, Jūda ķēniņa dēlu: par to nevaidēs: vai, mans brāli! Vai, mana māsa! par to nevaidēs: vai, kungs! Vai, cienīgais.
Therefore thus hath said the Lord concerning Jehoyakim the son of Josiah the king of Judah, They shall not lament for him, with, “Woe, my brother!” and, “Woe, sister!” they shall not lament for him, with “Woe, lord!” and, “Woe, to his glory!”
19 Bet kā ēzeli aprok, tā viņu apraks, un viņš taps rauts un izmests tālu no Jeruzālemes vārtiem.
With the burial of an ass shall he be buried, dragged about and cast forth beyond the gates of Jerusalem.
20 Kāp uz Lībanu un sauc un pacel savu balsi Basanā un brēc no Abarima, jo visi tavi mīluļi ir satriekti.
Ascend the Lebanon, and cry aloud; and let thy voice resound in Bashan; and cry aloud from 'Aharim; for crushed are all thy lovers.
21 Es runāju uz tevi, kad tev vēl labi klājās, bet tu sacīji: es neklausīšu. Tas ir tavs ceļš no pašas jaunības, ka tu Manu balsi neesi klausījis
I spoke unto thee in thy prosperity; but thou saidst, I will not hear. This hath been thy manner from thy very youth, that thou didst not hearken to my voice.
22 Vējš aizraus visus tavus ganus, un tavi mīluļi ies cietumā; tad tu tiešām tapsi kaunā un par apsmieklu visas savas blēdības dēļ.
The wind shall scatter abroad all thy shepherds, and thy lovers shall go into captivity: surely then shalt thou be ashamed and confounded because of all thy wickedness.
23 Tu uz Lībanus dzīvo un ciedru kokos taisi ligzdas, kā tev klāsies, kad tev sāpes uzies, mokas, kā dzemdētājai?
O inhabitress of Lebanon, that makest thy nest in the cedars, how full of grace wilt thou be! when pangs come upon thee, the pain as of a woman in travail!
24 Tik tiešām kā Es dzīvoju, saka Tas Kungs: kaut arī Kanija, Jojaķima dēls, Jūda ķēniņš, būtu pie Manas labās rokas spiežamais gredzens, tomēr Es tevi no tejienes aizraušu.
As I live, saith the Lord, though Conyahu the son of Jehoyakim the king of Judah were a signet upon my right hand, yet for a surety would I thence pluck thee;
25 Un Es tevi nodošu rokā tiem, kas tavu dvēseli meklē, un tiem rokā, priekš kā vaiga tu bīsties, proti Nebukadnecera, Bābeles ķēniņa, un Kaldeju rokā.
And I will give thee into the hand of those that seek thy life, and into the hand of those of whom thou art afraid, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans.
26 Un Es izmetīšu tevi un tavu māti, kas tevi dzemdējusi, uz citu zemi, kur jūs neesiet dzimuši, un tur jums būs jāmirst.
And I will hurl thee out, and thy mother that hath born thee, into another country, where ye were not born; and there shall ye die.
27 Un tai zemē, kurp viņu dvēselei gribēsies atpakaļ griezties, turp tie neatgriezīsies.
But to the land whitherward they direct their soul to return, thither shall they not return.
28 Vai šis vīrs Kanija ir viens nieka sadauzāms pods, jeb vai viņš trauks, kas nevienam nepatīk? Kāpēc viņš un viņa dzimums atmesti uz to zemi, ko tie nepazīst?
Is this man Conyahu a despised broken image? or a vessel without value? wherefore are they hurled out, he and his seed, and are cast forth into a land which they know not?
29 Ak zeme, zeme, zeme! Klausi Tā Kunga vārdu!
O land, land, land! hear the word of the Lord.
30 Tā saka Tas Kungs: pieraksti šo vīru par neauglīgu, par vīru, kam savu mūžu labi neizdosies. Jo nevienam no viņa dzimuma labi neklāsies, kas varētu sēdēt uz Dāvida goda krēsla un turpmāk valdīt pār Jūdu.
Thus hath said the Lord, Write ye down this man as childless, as a man that shall not prosper in his days; for no man of his seed shall succeed to sit upon the throne of David, and to rule any more in Judah.
