Jeremijas 44

1 Šis ir tas vārds, kas notika uz Jeremiju pret visiem Jūdiem, kas Ēģiptes zemē dzīvoja, kas Migdolā dzīvoja un Takvanesā un Novā un Patros zemē, sacīdams:

The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews who lived in the land of Egypt, who lived at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Memphis, and in the country of Pathros, saying,

2 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs: jūs esat redzējuši visu ļaunumu, ko Es esmu vedis pār Jeruzālemi un pār visām Jūda pilsētām, un redzi, tā ir šodien posta vieta bez iedzīvotāja,

“The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: ‘You have seen all the evil that I have brought on Jerusalem, and on all the cities of Judah. Behold, today they are a desolation, and no man dwells in them,

3 Viņu bezdievības dēļ ko tie darījuši, Mani kaitinādami, kad tie gāja kvēpināt un kalpot citiem dieviem, ko tie nepazina, ne paši, ne jūs, ne jūsu tēvi.

because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in that they went to burn incense, to serve other gods that they didn’t know, neither they, nor you, nor your fathers.

4 Un Es pie jums vienmēr esmu sūtījis vienā sūtīšanā visus Savus kalpus, tos praviešus, un sacījis: nedariet jel šo negantību, ko Es ienīstu.

However I sent to you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, “Oh, don’t do this abominable thing that I hate.”

5 Bet tie nav klausījuši, nedz savas ausis griezuši, ka atgrieztos no savas bezdievības, nekvēpināt citiem dieviem.

But they didn’t listen and didn’t incline their ear. They didn’t turn from their wickedness, to stop burning incense to other gods.

6 Tāpēc Mana bardzība un Mana dusmība izgāzusies un degusi Jūda pilsētās un Jeruzālemes ielās, tā ka tās palikušas par tuksnesi un posta vietu, tā kā tas šodien ir.

Therefore my wrath and my anger was poured out, and was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are wasted and desolate, as it is today.’

7 Un nu, tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs: Kāpēc jūs darāt tādu lielu ļaunumu pret savām dvēselēm, ka top izdeldēti jūsu starpā vīrs un sieva, bērns un zīdāmais no Jūda vidus, un nekā no jums neatliek,

“Therefore now the LORD, the God of Armies, the God of Israel, says: ‘Why do you commit great evil against your own souls, to cut off from yourselves man and woman, infant and nursing child out of the middle of Judah, to leave yourselves no one remaining,

8 Mani kaitinādami ar savu roku darbiem un kvēpinādami citiem dieviem Ēģiptes zemē, kurp jūs esat gājuši, tur piemājot, lai paši sev sataisāt izdeldēšanu un topat par lāstu un apsmieklu starp visām zemes tautām?

in that you provoke me to anger with the works of your hands, burning incense to other gods in the land of Egypt where you have gone to live, that you may be cut off, and that you may be a curse and a reproach amongst all the nations of the earth?

9 Vai esiet aizmirsuši savu tēvu bezdievību un Jūda ķēniņu bezdievību un viņu sievu bezdievību un savu bezdievību un savu sievu bezdievību, ko tie darījuši Jūda zemē un Jeruzālemes ielās?

Have you forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, the wickedness of the kings of Judah, the wickedness of their wives, your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives which they committed in the land of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?

10 Un tomēr tie līdz šai dienai vēl nav sagrauzti un nebīstas nedz staigā Manā bauslībā un Manos likumos, ko Es esmu licis priekšā jums un jūsu tēviem.

They are not humbled even to this day, neither have they feared, nor walked in my law, nor in my statutes, that I set before you and before your fathers.’

11 Tādēļ tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs: redzi, Es griezīšu Savu vaigu uz jums par ļaunumu un izdeldēšu visu Jūdu.

“Therefore the LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: ‘Behold, I will set my face against you for evil, even to cut off all Judah.

12 Un Es ņemšu Jūda atlikušos, kas savu vaigu griezuši, iet uz Ēģiptes zemi, tur piemājot, un tie visi dabūs galu Ēģiptes zemē, tie kritīs caur zobenu, caur badu tiem būs gals, gan maziem gan lieliem, caur zobenu un caur badu tie mirs un būs par lāstu un briesmām un par apsmieklu un kaunu.

I will take the remnant of Judah that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt to live there, and they will all be consumed. They will fall in the land of Egypt. They will be consumed by the sword and by the famine. They will die, from the least even to the greatest, by the sword and by the famine. They will be an object of horror, an astonishment, a curse, and a reproach.

13 Es arī tos piemeklēšu, kas dzīvo Ēģiptes zemē, tā kā es Jeruzālemi esmu piemeklējis ar zobenu, ar badu un ar mēri.

For I will punish those who dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have punished Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence;

14 Un neviens neizbēgs un neizspruks no Jūda atlikušiem, kas nākuši uz Ēģiptes zemi, tur piemājot, lai varētu atgriezties uz Jūda zemi, uz kurieni viņu dvēsele ilgojās atpakaļ griezties un tur dzīvot; jo tie negriezīsies atpakaļ, bez tiem vien, kas izbēg.

so that none of the remnant of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt to live there, will escape or be left to return into the land of Judah, to which they have a desire to return to dwell there; for no one will return except those who will escape.’”

15 Tad visi vīri, kas zināja savas sievas citiem dieviem kvēpinām, un visas sievas, kas tur stāvēja lielā pulkā, līdz ar visiem ļaudīm, kas dzīvoja Ēģiptes zemē iekš Patros atbildēja Jeremijam un sacīja:

Then all the men who knew that their wives burnt incense to other gods, and all the women who stood by, a great assembly, even all the people who lived in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying,

16 Uz to vārdu, ko tu mums esi sacījis Tā Kunga Vārdā, mēs tev negribam klausīt,

“As for the word that you have spoken to us in the LORD’s name, we will not listen to you.

17 Bet mēs darīsim pēc visiem vārdiem, kas no mūsu mutes nākuši, un kvēpināsim debess ķēniņienei un upurēsim viņai dzeramus upurus, tā kā mēs esam darījuši paši un mūsu tēvi, mūsu ķēniņi un mūsu lielkungi pa Jūda pilsētām un Jeruzālemes ielām; tad mums bija maizes papilnam un mēs bijām līksmi un neredzējām ļauna.

But we will certainly perform every word that has gone out of our mouth, to burn incense to the queen of the sky and to pour out drink offerings to her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings and our princes, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; for then we had plenty of food, and were well, and saw no evil.

18 Bet no tā brīža, ka esam mitējušies kvēpināt debess ķēniņienei un viņai upurēt dzeramus upurus, tad mums ir bijis visāds trūkums, un mēs ejam bojā caur zobenu un caur badu.

But since we stopped burning incense to the queen of the sky, and pouring out drink offerings to her, we have lacked all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine.”

19 Un kad mēs tai debess ķēniņienei kvēpinām un viņai upurējam dzeramus upurus, vai tad mēs bez savu vīru ziņas tai taisām raušus, to tēlodami, un tai upurējam dzeramus upurus?

The women said, “When we burnt incense to the queen of the sky and poured out drink offerings to her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink offerings to her, without our husbands?”

20 Tad Jeremija runāja uz visiem ļaudīm, uz vīriem un uz sievām un uz visiem ļaudīm, kas viņam to vārdu bija atbildējuši, un sacīja:

Then Jeremiah said to all the people—to the men and to the women, even to all the people who had given him an answer, saying,

21 Vai Tas Kungs nav pieminējis un pie sirds ņēmis to kvēpināšanu, ko jūs esat kvēpinājuši pa Jūda pilsētām un Jeruzālemes ielām, jūs un jūsu tēvi, jūsu ķēniņi un jūsu lielkungi un tās zemes ļaudis?

“The incense that you burnt in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and your fathers, your kings and your princes, and the people of the land, didn’t the LORD remember them, and didn’t it come into his mind?

22 Un Tas Kungs vairs nevarēja paciest to bezdievību, ko jūs darījāt un to negantību, ko jūs darījāt. Tādēļ jūsu zeme ir tapusi par postu un par briesmām un par lāstu, ka neviens tur nedzīvo, kā tas šodien ir.

Thus the LORD could no longer bear it, because of the evil of your doings and because of the abominations which you have committed. Therefore your land has become a desolation, an astonishment, and a curse, without inhabitant, as it is today.

23 Tāpēc ka jūs esat kvēpinājuši un pret To Kungu grēkojuši un neesat klausījuši Tā Kunga balsij nedz staigājuši viņa bauslībā un viņa likumos un viņa liecībās, tādēļ jums šis ļaunums noticis, kā tas šodien ir.

Because you have burnt incense and because you have sinned against the LORD, and have not obeyed the LORD’s voice, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil has happened to you, as it is today.”

24 Un Jeremija sacīja uz visiem ļaudīm un uz visām sievām: klausiet Tā Kunga vārdu, jūs visi no Jūda cilts, kas esat Ēģiptes zemē.

Moreover Jeremiah said to all the people, including all the women, “Hear the LORD’s word, all Judah who are in the land of Egypt!

25 Tā runā Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs, sacīdams: jūs un jūsu sievas ar savu muti esat runājuši un ar savām rokām to darījuši. Jūs esat sacījuši: mēs turēsim savus solījumus, ko esam apsolījuši, kvēpināt debess ķēniņienei un tai upurēt dzeramus upurus. Nu tad turat stipri savus solījumus un dariet, ko esat apsolījuši.

The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says, ‘You and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and with your hands have fulfilled it, saying, “We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of the sky, and to pour out drink offerings to her.” “‘Establish then your vows, and perform your vows.’

26 Tad nu klausiet Tā Kunga vārdu, jūs visi no Jūda, kas dzīvojat Ēģiptes zemē: redzi, Es zvērēju pie Sava lielā vārda, saka Tas Kungs, ka Mans Vārds no nekāda vīra mutes vairs netaps saukts visā Ēģiptes zemē, kas sacītu: tik tiešām kā Tas Kungs Dievs dzīvo!

“Therefore hear the LORD’s word, all Judah who dwell in the land of Egypt: ‘Behold, I have sworn by my great name,’ says the LORD, ‘that my name will no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, “As the Lord GOD lives.”

27 Redzi, Es būšu nomodā pār tiem uz ļaunu un ne uz labu, un visi vīri no Jūda, kas Ēģiptes zemē, taps izdeldēti ar zobenu un ar badu, tiekams būs pagalam.

Behold, I watch over them for evil, and not for good; and all the men of Judah who are in the land of Egypt will be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until they are all gone.

28 Bet kas izbēgs zobenam, tie griezīsies atpakaļ no Ēģiptes zemes uz Jūda zemi, mazs pulciņš, un tad visi Jūda atlikušie, kas nākuši piemist Ēģiptes zemē, atzīs, kura vārds pastāvēs, vai Mans, vai viņu.

Those who escape the sword will return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah few in number. All the remnant of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt to live there, will know whose word will stand, mine or theirs.

29 Un tas jums būs par zīmi, saka Tas Kungs, ka Es jūs šai vietā piemeklēšu, lai zināt, ka Mani vārdi piepildīsies pie jums uz ļaunu.

“‘This will be the sign to you,’ says the LORD, ‘that I will punish you in this place, that you may know that my words will surely stand against you for evil.’

30 Tā saka Tas Kungs: redzi, Es nodošu Faraonu Hofru, Ēģiptes ķēniņu, viņa ienaidniekiem rokā, un tiem rokā, kas meklē viņa dvēseli, tā kā Es Cedeķiju, Jūda ķēniņu, esmu devis rokā Nebukadnecaram, Bābeles ķēniņam, viņa ienaidniekam, un tiem, kas viņa dvēseli meklēja.

The LORD says, ‘Behold, I will give Pharaoh Hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies and into the hand of those who seek his life, just as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, who was his enemy and sought his life.’”
