< Jeremijas 34 >
1 Šis ir tas vārds, kas uz Jeremiju notika no Tā Kunga, kad Nebukadnecars, Bābeles ķēniņš, un viss viņa karaspēks un visas pasaules valstis, kas bija apakš viņa valdīšanas, un visas tautas karoja pret Jeruzālemi un visām viņas pilsētām:
The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, with all his army, all the kingdoms of the earth that were under his dominion, and all the peoples, were fighting against Jerusalem and against all its cities, saying:
2 Tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs: ej un runā uz Cedeķiju, Jūda ķēniņu, un saki uz to: tā saka Tas Kungs: Redzi, Es šo pilsētu dodu Bābeles ķēniņam rokā, un viņš to sadedzinās ar uguni.
“The LORD, the God of Israel, says, ‘Go, and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah, and tell him, the LORD says, “Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon and he will burn it with fire.
3 Un tu neizbēgsi no viņa rokas, bet tapsi grābtin sagrābts un viņam dots rokā, un tavas acis redzēs Bābeles ķēniņa acis un viņš ar tevi runās muti pret muti un tu nāksi uz Bābeli.
You won’t escape out of his hand, but will surely be taken and delivered into his hand. Your eyes will see the eyes of the king of Babylon, and he will speak with you mouth to mouth. You will go to Babylon.”’
4 Bet klausi Tā Kunga vārdu, Cedeķija, Jūda ķēniņ! Tā saka Tas Kungs uz tevi: tu nemirsi caur zobenu,
“Yet hear the LORD’s word, O Zedekiah king of Judah. The LORD says concerning you, ‘You won’t die by the sword.
5 Tu nomirsi mierā. Un kā sārtu dedzinājuši taviem tēviem, tiem agrākajiem ķēniņiem, kas priekš tevis bijuši, tāpat tev dedzinās un par tevi žēlosies: “Ak vai, Kungs!” Jo Es šo vārdu esmu runājis, saka Tas Kungs.
You will die in peace; and with the burnings of your fathers, the former kings who were before you, so they will make a burning for you. They will lament you, saying, “Ah Lord!” for I have spoken the word,’ says the LORD.”
6 Un pravietis Jeremija sacīja visus šos vārdus uz Cedeķiju, Jūda ķēniņu, Jeruzālemē,
Then Jeremiah the prophet spoke all these words to Zedekiah king of Judah in Jerusalem,
7 Kad Bābeles ķēniņa kara spēks karoja pret Jeruzālemi un pret visām atlikušām Jūda pilsētām, pret Laķisu un pret Azeku; jo šīs stiprās pilsētas bija atlikušas no Jūda pilsētām.
when the king of Babylon’s army was fighting against Jerusalem and against all the cities of Judah that were left, against Lachish and against Azekah; for these alone remained of the cities of Judah as fortified cities.
8 Šis ir tas vārds, kas notika uz Jeremiju no Tā Kunga, kad ķēniņš Cedeķija bija derību derējis ar visiem ļaudīm, kas Jeruzālemē, viņiem izsaukt svabadības gadu,
The word came to Jeremiah from the LORD, after King Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people who were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty to them,
9 Ka ikvienam bija atlaist savu kalpu un ikvienam savu kalponi, kas vien no Ebreju cilts, ka Jūdu starpā neviens savu brāli nekalpinātu.
that every man should let his male servant, and every man his female servant, who is a Hebrew or a Hebrewess, go free, that no one should make bondservants of them, of a Jew his brother.
10 Tad paklausīja visi lielkungi un visi ļaudis, kas šo derību bija derējuši, ka ikviens savu kalpu un savu kalponi atlaistu vaļā un vairs nekalpinātu, - tie paklausīja un tos atlaida.
All the princes and all the people obeyed who had entered into the covenant, that everyone should let his male servant and everyone his female servant go free, that no one should make bondservants of them any more. They obeyed and let them go,
11 Bet pēc tie tiem kalpiem un tām kalponēm, ko tie bija atlaiduši vaļā, lika nākt atkal atpakaļ un tos spieda atkal būt par kalpiem un par kalponēm.
but afterwards they turned, and caused the servants and the handmaids whom they had let go free to return, and brought them into subjection for servants and for handmaids.
12 Tādēļ Tā Kunga vārds notika uz Jeremiju no Tā Kunga sacīdams:
Therefore the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
13 Tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs: Es esmu derību derējis ar jūsu tēviem, kad tos izvedu no Ēģiptes zemes, no tā vergu nama, un sacīju:
“The LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying:
14 Septītā gadā jums būs atlaist ikvienam savu brāli, kas ir Ebrejs, kas tev ir pārdots un sešus gadus tev kalpojis, un tev būs viņu atlaist no sevis svabadu; bet jūsu tēvi Mani neklausīja un nepiegrieza savas ausis.
At the end of seven years, every man of you shall release his brother who is a Hebrew, who has been sold to you, and has served you six years. You shall let him go free from you. But your fathers didn’t listen to me, and didn’t incline their ear.
15 Tad jūs nu šodien bijāt atgriezušies un darījuši, kas bija tiesa Manās acīs, izsaukdami svabadību ikviens savam tuvākam, un jūs bijāt derību derējuši Manā priekšā, tai namā, kas pēc Mana Vārda nosaukts.
You had now turned, and had done that which is right in my eyes, in every man proclaiming liberty to his neighbour. You had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name;
16 Bet jūs esat atkāpušies, Manu Vārdu sagānījuši un ņēmuši atpakaļ ikviens savu kalponi, ko bijāt atlaiduši svabadus savā vaļā, un esiet tos spieduši, būt par kalpiem un par kalponēm.
but you turned and profaned my name, and every man caused his servant and every man his handmaid, whom you had let go free at their pleasure, to return. You brought them into subjection, to be to you for servants and for handmaids.’”
17 Tādēļ tā saka Tas Kungs: jūs Mani neesat klausījuši, svabadību izsaukt ikviens savam brālim un ikviens savam tuvākam. Redzi, tad Es pret jums izsaucu svabadību, saka Tas Kungs, zobenam, mērim un badam, un Es jūs nodošu uz vārdzināšanu visās pasaules valstīs.
Therefore the LORD says: “You have not listened to me, to proclaim liberty, every man to his brother, and every man to his neighbour. Behold, I proclaim to you a liberty,” says the LORD, “to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine. I will make you be tossed back and forth amongst all the kingdoms of the earth.
18 Un Es nodošu tos vīrus, kas Manu derību pārkāpuši, kas nav turējuši tās derības vārdus, ko tie Manā priekšā derējuši, tā kā to teļu, ko tie divējos gabalos pārcirtuši un kuru gabalu starpā gājuši cauri,
I will give the men who have transgressed my covenant, who have not performed the words of the covenant which they made before me when they cut the calf in two and passed between its parts:
19 Jūda lielkungus un Jeruzālemes lielkungus, ķēniņa sulaiņus un priesterus un visus zemes ļaudis, kas starp tā teļa gabaliem gājuši cauri.
the princes of Judah, the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, the priests, and all the people of the land, who passed between the parts of the calf.
20 Un Es tos nodošu viņu ienaidniekiem rokā, tiem rokā, kas viņu dvēseli meklē, un viņu miesas būs par barību putniem apakš debess un zvēriem virs zemes.
I will even give them into the hand of their enemies and into the hand of those who seek their life. Their dead bodies will be food for the birds of the sky and for the animals of the earth.
21 Un Cedeķiju, Jūda ķēniņu, un viņa lielkungus es nodošu viņu ienaidniekiem rokā un tiem rokā, kas viņu dvēseli meklē, proti Bābeles ķēniņa karaspēka rokā, kas tagad no jums aizcēlies.
“I will give Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes into the hands of their enemies, into the hands of those who seek their life and into the hands of the king of Babylon’s army, who has gone away from you.
22 Redzi, Es došu pavēli, saka Tas Kungs, un tos atvedīšu atkal uz šo pilsētu, un tie pret to karos un to uzņems un to sadedzinās ar uguni, un Es izpostīšu Jūda pilsētas, ka nevienam tur nebūs dzīvot.
Behold, I will command,” says the LORD, “and cause them to return to this city. They will fight against it, take it, and burn it with fire. I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.”
