< 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 Zedekiah son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from Yahweh.
2 Tā saka Tas Kungs uz mani: taisi sev saites un jūgus un liec tos pie sava kakla,
This is what Yahweh said to me, “Make fetters and a yoke for yourself. 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;
Then send them out to the king of Edom, the king of Moab, the king of the people of Ammon, the king of Tyre, and to the king of Sidon. Send them by the hand of those kings' ambassadors who have come to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah.
4 Un pavēli tiem sacīt uz saviem kungiem: tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs: tā jums saviem kungiem būs sacīt:
Give commands to them for their masters and say, 'Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, says this: This is what you must say 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 myself made the earth by my great strength and my raised arm. I also made the people and animals on the earth, and I give it to anyone who is right 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.
So now, I myself am giving all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, my servant. Also, I am giving the living things in the fields to him to 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.
For all the nations will serve him, his son, and his grandson until the time for his land comes. Then many nations and great kings will subdue him.
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.
So the nation and the kingdom that does not serve Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, and that does not put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon—I will punish that nation with the sword, with famine, and with the plague—this is Yahweh's declaration—until I have destroyed it 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.
So do not listen to your prophets, your diviners, your seers, your soothsayers, and sorcerers, who have been speaking to you and saying, 'Do 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 are prophesying deceit to you in order to send you far away from your lands, for I will drive you away, and you will die.
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.
But the nation that places its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon and serves him, I will allow it to rest in its land—this is Yahweh's declaration—and they will cultivate it and make their homes 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.
So I spoke to Zedekiah king of Judah and gave him this message, “Place 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 will you die—you and your people—by the sword, famine, and plague, just as I have declared about the 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 listen to the words of the prophets who speak to you and say, 'Do not serve the king of Babylon,' for they are prophesying lies 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 out—this is Yahweh's declaration—for they are prophesying deceit in my name so that I will drive you out and you will perish, both you and the prophets who are prophesying to 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 proclaimed this to the priests and all the people and said, “Yahweh says this: Do not listen to the words of your prophets who prophesy to you and say, 'Look! The objects belonging to Yahweh's house are being returned from Babylon now!' They are prophesying lies to you.
17 Neklausiet tiem, kalpojiet Bābeles ķēniņam, tad jūs dzīvosiet. Kāpēc tad šai pilsētai būs tapt postītai?
Do not listen to them. You should serve the king of Babylon and live. Why should this city become a ruin?
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.
If they are prophets, and if the word of Yahweh has truly come to them, let them beg Yahweh of hosts not to send to Babylon the objects that remain in his house, the house of the king of Judah, and Jerusalem.
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,
Yahweh of hosts says this about the pillars, the large basin known as “The Sea” and its base, and the rest of the objects that remain 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 -
the objects that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon did not take when he carried Jehoiachin son of Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon with all the nobles 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:
Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, says this about the objects that remain in the house of Yahweh, 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 will be brought to Babylon, and they will remain there until the day I have set to come for them—this is Yahweh's declaration—then I will bring them up and restore them to this place.'”
