< Jeremijas 43 >

1 Un kad Jeremija bija beidzis runāt uz visiem ļaudīm visus Tā Kunga, viņu Dieva, vārdus, ar ko Tas Kungs, viņu Dievs, viņu pie tiem bija sūtījis, (proti) visus šos vārdus,
[So] I finished telling to the people that message from Yahweh our God.
2 Tad runāja Azarija, Ozajas dēls, un Jehohanans, Kareūs dēls, un visi tie nebēdnieki, un sacīja uz Jeremiju: tu runā melus; Tas Kungs, mūsu Dievs, tevi nav sūtījis nedz sacījis: jums nebūs iet uz Ēģipti, tur piemist.
But then Johanan and Azariah and some other insolent/arrogant men said to me, “You are lying! Yahweh our God has not told [us] that we should not go to Egypt!
3 Bet Bāruks, Nerijas dēls, tevi pret mums skubina, mūs nodot Kaldejiem rokā, lai tie mūs nokauj un aizved uz Bābeli.
[We think that] Baruch has urged/persuaded you to say this, in order that [if we stay here], the soldiers from Babylonia will seize us and kill us or take us to Babylonia.”
4 Un Jehohanans, Kareūs dēls, un visi tie kara virsnieki un visi tie ļaudis neklausīja Tā Kunga balsij, palikt Jūda zemē.
So Johanan and the other leaders of the [Israeli] soldiers and [many of] [HYP] the other people [who were there] refused to obey Yahweh’s command to stay in Judah.
5 Bet Jehohanans, Kareūs dēls, un visi kara virsnieki ņēma visus Jūda atlikušos, kas no visām tautām, kurp tie bija aizdzīti, bija griezušies atpakaļ dzīvot Jūda zemē,
Johanan and all the [other] leaders gathered together all the people who had returned from the other countries to which they had been scattered.
6 Vīrus un sievas un bērnus un ķēniņa meitas, un visas tās dvēseles, ko pils karavīru virsnieks Nebuzaradans, bija atstājis pie Ģedalijas, Aīkama dēla, Safana dēla dēla, ir pravieti Jeremiju un Bāruku, Nerijas dēlu,
[They included] men, women, children, the king’s daughters, and all those whom Nebuzaradan had left with Gedaliah, and they also took Baruch and me.
7 Un tie gāja uz Ēģiptes zemi, jo tie neklausīja Tā Kunga balsij, un tie nāca uz Takvanesu.
They refused to obey Yahweh, and they took us all [to Egypt], as far as Tahpenes [city].
8 Tad Tā Kunga vārds notika uz Jeremiju Takvanesā sacīdams:
[While we were] at Tahpenes, Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
9 Ņem savā rokā lielus akmeņus un ieroc tos mālos akmeņu bruģī, kas ir pie Faraona nama durvīm Takvanesā, priekš Jūdu vīru acīm, un saki uz tiem:
“While the people of Judah are watching you, take some large rocks and bury them under the brick pavement at the entrance to the king’s palace there at Tahpenes.
10 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs: redzi, Es sūtīšu un atvedīšu Nebukadnecaru, Bābeles ķēniņu, Savu kalpu, un celšu viņa goda krēslu pār šiem akmeņiem, ko Es esmu ieracis, un viņš izplētīs savu skaisto telti tur virsū.
Then say to the people of Judah, ‘This is what the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom [you] Israelis [say you belong to], says: “I will summon Nebuchadnezzar the King of Babylon, who does my work, to come [with his army] to Egypt. I will set up his throne over these stones that I told Jeremiah to bury. And Nebuchadnezzar will set up his tent there [to show that he has become] the King [of Egypt].
11 Un viņš nāks un sitīs Ēģiptes zemi; kam nāve uziet, tam lai uziet, un kam cietums uziet, tam lai uziet, un kam zobens uziet, tam lai uziet.
When his [army] comes, they will attack Egypt. Then those will die who [I have determined] must die, those who [I have determined] must be captured will be captured, and those who [I have determined] must be killed by swords will be killed by swords.
12 Un Es iededzināšu uguni Ēģiptes dievu namos, un viņš tos sadedzinās un aizvedīs. Un viņš apvilks Ēģiptes zemi, ka gans apvelk savu mēteli, un viņš izies no turienes ar mieru.
Nebuchadnezzar’s [soldiers] will burn down the temples of the gods of Egypt. [But before they burn the temples], they will take away their idols [as souvenirs]. His [troops] will clean Egypt like a shepherd cleans lice from his cloak. They will tear down the sacred pillars that are in the temple of their sun god. And then Nebuchadnezzar’s [troops] will leave there, without having been harmed.”’”
13 Un viņš satrieks BetŠemes (saules dieva) pīlārus Ēģiptes zemē un sadedzinās Ēģiptes dievu namus ar uguni.
