Jeremijas 27
1 Jojaķima (Cedeķijas), Josijas dēla, Jūda ķēniņa valdīšanas iesākumā šis vārds no Tā Kunga notika uz Jeremiju:
In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying:
2 Tā saka Tas Kungs uz mani: taisi sev saites un jūgus un liec tos pie sava kakla,
“Thus says the Lord to me: Make bands and chains for yourself. And you shall place them on your neck.
3 Un sūti tos pie Edoma ķēniņa, pie Moaba ķēniņa, pie Amona bērnu ķēniņa un pie Tirus ķēniņa un pie Sidonas ķēniņa ar tiem vēstnešiem, kas nākuši uz Jeruzālemi pie Jūda ķēniņa Cedeķijas;
And you shall send them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the sons of Ammon, and to the king of Tyre, and to the king of Sidon, by the hand of the messengers who came to Jerusalem, to Zedekiah, the king of Judah.
4 Un pavēli tiem sacīt uz saviem kungiem: tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs: tā jums saviem kungiem būs sacīt:
And you shall instruct them to say to their masters: Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: You shall say these things to your masters:
5 Es esmu radījis zemi un cilvēkus un lopus, kas virs zemes, ar Savu lielo spēku un ar Savu izstiepto elkoni, un Es to dodu tam, kas Manām acīm patiks.
I made the earth, and the men and beasts which are upon the face of the earth, by my great strength and by my outstretched arm. And I have given it to whomever it was pleasing in my eyes.
6 Nu tad visas šās zemes Es dodu rokā Nebukadnecaram, Bābeles ķēniņam, Savam kalpam, un pat zvērus laukā Es dodu viņam kalpot.
And now, therefore, I have given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, my servant. Moreover, I have given to him also the beasts of the field, so that they may serve him.
7 Un visiem ļaudīm būs kalpot viņam un viņa dēlam un viņa dēla dēlam, tiekams laiks nāks arī viņa zemei, tad lielas tautas un lieli ķēniņi viņu sev kalpinās.
And all the nations will serve him, and his son, and his son’s son. Many nations and great kings will serve him, until the time arrives for him and his land.
8 Un tos ļaudis un to valsti, kas viņam, Nebukadnecaram, Bābeles ķēniņam, nekalpos, un kas savu kaklu negribēs likt apakš Bābeles ķēniņa jūga, to tautu Es piemeklēšu ar zobenu un ar badu un ar mēri, saka Tas Kungs, tiekams Es tos būšu izdeldējis caur viņa roku.
But the nation or kingdom that will not serve Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, and whoever will not bend his neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, I will visit upon that nation with the sword, and with famine, and with pestilence, says the Lord, until I consume them by his hand.
9 Jūs tad neklausiet saviem praviešiem un saviem zīlniekiem un saviem sapņotājiem un saviem vārdotājiem un saviem burvjiem, kas uz jums runā un saka: jūs nekalposiet Bābeles ķēniņam.
Therefore, you should not choose to listen to your own prophets, and diviners, and dreamers, and soothsayers, and sorcerers, who say to you: ‘You shall not serve the king of Babylon.’
10 Jo tie jums sludina melus, lai Es jūs tālu aizvedu no jūsu zemes, un lai Es jūs izdzenu, un lai jūs ejat bojā.
For they prophesy lies to you, so that they may cause you to be far from your own country, and may cast you out, and may cause you to perish.
11 Bet tiem ļaudīm, kas savu kaklu pados Bābeles ķēniņa jūgam un viņam kalpos, tiem Es likšu palikt savā zemē, saka Tas Kungs, un tie to apkops un tur dzīvos.
Furthermore, the nation which will bend its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and which will serve him, I will permit them to remain in their own land, says the Lord. And they will cultivate it, and they will live in it.”
12 Un Es runāju pēc visiem šiem vārdiem uz ķēniņu Cedeķiju, Jūda ķēniņu, un sacīju: padodiet savus kaklus Bābeles ķēniņa jūgam un kalpojiet viņam un viņa ļaudīm, tad jūs dzīvosiet.
And I spoke to Zedekiah, the king of Judah, according to all these words, saying: “Subject your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people, and you will live.
13 Kāpēc jūs gribat mirt, tu un tavi ļaudis, caur zobenu, caur badu un caur mēri, kā Tas Kungs runājis par tiem ļaudīm, kas Bābeles ķēniņam nekalpos?
Why should you suffer death, you and your people, by the sword, and famine, and pestilence, just as the Lord has spoken against any nation that refuses to serve the king of Babylon?
14 Tad neklausiet to praviešu vārdiem, kas uz jums runā un saka: jūs nekalposiet Bābeles ķēniņam, - jo tie jums sludina melus.
Do not choose to listen to the words of the prophets, saying to you: ‘You will not serve the king of Babylon.’ For they are speaking a lie to you.
15 Jo Es tos neesmu sūtījis, saka Tas Kungs, un tie Manā Vārdā sludina melus, lai Es jūs izdzenu, un jūs ejat bojā, jūs un tie pravieši, kas jums sludina.
For I have not sent them, says the Lord. And they prophesy falsely in my name, so that they may cast you out, and so that you may perish, both you and the prophets who make predictions for you.”
16 Es runāju arī uz tiem priesteriem un uz visiem šiem ļaudīm un sacīju: tā saka Tas Kungs: neklausiet savu praviešu vārdiem, kas jums sludina un saka: redzi, Tā Kunga nama trauki drīz taps pārvesti no Bābeles, jo tie jums sludina melus.
I spoke also to the priests and to this people, saying: “Thus says the Lord: Do not choose to listen to the words of your prophets, who prophesy to you, saying: ‘Behold, the vessels of the Lord will now quickly be returned from Babylon.’ For they are prophesying to you a lie.
17 Neklausiet tiem, kalpojiet Bābeles ķēniņam, tad jūs dzīvosiet. Kāpēc tad šai pilsētai būs tapt postītai?
Therefore, do not choose to listen to them, but instead, serve the king of Babylon, so that you may live. Why should this city be given over into desolation?
18 Bet ja tie ir pravieši, un ja Tā Kunga vārds ir pie viņiem, tad lai tie jel To Kungu Cebaot pielūdz, ka tie trauki, kas Tā Kunga namā un Jūda ķēniņa namā un Jeruzālemē atlikuši, nenāk uz Bābeli.
But if they are prophets, and if the word of the Lord is in them, then let them intercede before the Lord of hosts, so that the vessels that were left behind in the house of the Lord, and in the house of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem, may not go to Babylon.
19 Jo tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot par tiem pīlāriem un par to jūru un par tiem krēsliem un par tiem atlikušiem traukiem, kas šai pilsētā atlikuši,
For thus says the Lord of hosts to the pillars, and to the sea of brass, and to the bases, and to the remainder of the vessels that have been left behind in this city,
20 Ko Nebukadnecars, Bābeles ķēniņš, nav paņēmis, kad viņš Jekaniju, Jojaķima dēlu, Jūda ķēniņu, no Jeruzālemes aizveda uz Bābeli līdz ar visiem Jūda un Jeruzālemes cienīgiem -
which Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, did not take when he carried away Jeconiah, the son of Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, from Jerusalem into Babylon, with all the nobility of Judah and Jerusalem:
21 Jo tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs, par tiem rīkiem, kas atlikuši Tā Kunga namā un Jūda ķēniņa namā un Jeruzālemē:
For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, to the vessels that were left behind in the house of the Lord and in the house of the king of Judah and Jerusalem:
22 Tie taps aizvesti uz Bābeli, un tur tie būs līdz tai dienai, kad Es tos piemeklēšu, saka Tas Kungs, jo Es tos atvedīšu atpakaļ uz šo vietu.
They shall be carried away to Babylon, and there they shall be, until the day of their visitation, says the Lord. And then I will cause them to be carried back, and to be restored to this place.
