< Jeremijas 46 >
1 Šis ir Tā Kunga vārds, kas notika uz pravieti Jeremiju pret pagānu tautām:
This is the word of Yahweh that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the nations.
2 Pret Ēģipti, pret Faraonu Nekus, Ēģiptes ķēniņa, karaspēku, kas bija pie Eifrat upes, pie Karķemisa, ko Nebukadnecars, Bābeles ķēniņš, sakāva Jojaķima, Josijas dēla, Jūda ķēniņa, ceturtā gadā.
For Egypt: “This is about the army of Pharaoh Necho, king of Egypt that was at Carchemish by the Euphrates river. This was the army that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon defeated in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah, king of Judah:
3 Taisiet gatavas bruņas un sedzamas bruņas un ejat karā.
Get the small shields and the large shields ready, and go forward to fight.
4 Sedlojiet zirgus un kāpiet virsū, jātnieki, nostājaties vara cepurēs, triniet šķēpus, apvelciet krūšu bruņas.
Put the harness on the horses; mount up on the horses and take your stand with your helmets on; polish the spears and put on your armor.
5 Kāpēc Es tos redzu bailīgus un atpakaļ bēgam, un viņu varenos sakautus un bēgam, ka neskatās atpakaļ? Briesmas visapkārt, saka Tas Kungs.
What am I seeing here? They are filled with terror and are running away, for their soldiers are defeated. They are running for safety and are not looking back. Terror is all around—this is Yahweh's declaration—
6 Ne čaklais var izbēgt, ne varenais izsprukt; pret ziemeli pie Eifrat upes krasta tie klūp un krīt.
the swift cannot run away, and the soldiers cannot escape. They stumble in the north and fall beside the Euphrates River.
7 Kas tas, kas ceļas, kā upe, kam ūdeņi veļas kā straumes?
Who is this who rises like the Nile, whose waters toss up and down like the rivers?
8 Ēģiptes zeme ceļas kā upe, un viņas ūdeņi veļas kā straumes un saka: “Es celšos liela, es apklāšu zemi, es maitāšu pilsētas, un kas tur dzīvo.”
Egypt rises like the Nile, like rivers of water that rise and fall. Egypt says, 'I will go up and I will cover the earth. I will destroy cities and their inhabitants.
9 Ceļaties, zirgi, rībiet, rati! Lai varoņi iziet, Moru ļaudis un no Puta, kas bruņas tura, un Līdieši, kas stopu nes un uzvelk.
Go up, horses. Be angry, you chariots. Let the soldiers go out, Cush and Put, men skillful with a shield, and Ludim, men skillful at bending their bows.'
10 Šī diena ir Tā Kunga, Tā Kunga Cebaot atriebšanās diena, ka Viņš atriebjās pie Saviem pretiniekiem, un zobens ēdīs un rīs un piedzersies no viņu asinīm. Jo Tam Kungam, Tam Kungam Cebaot, ir kauja ziemeļu zemē pie Eifrat upes.
That day will be the day of vengeance for the Lord Yahweh of hosts, and he will avenge himself on his foes. The sword will devour and be satisfied. It will drink its fill of their blood. For there will be a sacrifice to the Yahweh Lord of hosts in the northern land by the Euphrates River.
11 Ej augšā uz Gileādu un dabū zalves(balzāmu), jaunava, Ēģiptes meita! Velti, ka tu daudz zāļojies, jo dziedināšanas tev nav.
Go up to Gilead and obtain medicine, virgin daughter of Egypt. It is useless that you put much medicine on yourself. There is no cure for you.
12 Tautas dzird tavu kaunu, un zeme ir pilna tavas kaukšanas, jo ir straipelejuši varonis uz varoni, un abi kopā krituši.
The nations have heard of your disgrace. The earth is filled with your laments, for soldier stumbles against soldier; both of them fall together.”
13 Šis ir tas vārds, ko Tas Kungs runāja uz pravieti Jeremiju par Nebukadnecara, Bābeles ķēniņa, nākšanu, kaut Ēģiptes zemi:
This is the word that Yahweh told Jeremiah the prophet when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came and attacked the land of Egypt:
14 Sludinājiet Ēģiptes zemē, dariet zināmu Migdalā, sauciet to arī Novā un Takvanesā, sakāt: celies un taisies gatava, jo zobens ir aprijis, kas ap tevi.
“Announce in Egypt, and proclaim it in Migdol, Memphis, and Tahpanhes. 'Take your station and prepare yourself, for the sword will devour those around you.'
15 Kāpēc tavi varenie nogāzti? Tie nepastāvēja, jo Tas Kungs tos gāzis.
Why are your mighty ones face-down on the ground? They will not stand, because I, Yahweh, have pushed them to the ground.
16 Viņš dara, ka daudzi gāžas, un viens krīt uz otru, un tie saka: ceļaties, iesim atpakaļ pie saviem ļaudīm un uz savu dzimteni no rijēja zobena.
He increases the numbers of those who stumble. Each soldier falls against the next one. They are saying, 'Get up. Let us go home. Let us go back to our own people, to our native land. Let us leave this sword that is beating us down.'
17 Tur sauc: Faraons, Ēģiptes ķēniņš, ir pagalam, viņš savu laiku nav licis vērā.
They proclaimed there, 'Pharaoh the king of Egypt is only a noise, one who has let his opportunity slip away.'
18 Tik tiešām kā Es dzīvoju, saka tas Ķēniņš, kam vārds ir Kungs Cebaot: viņš nāks kā Tābors starp kalniem un kā Karmels jūrmalā.
As I live—declares the King, whose name is Yahweh of hosts— someone will come like Mount Tabor and Mount Carmel by the sea.
19 Gādā sev ceļa lietas, iedzīvotāja, Ēģiptes meita, jo Nofa taps par tuksnesi un taps sadedzināta, ka neviens tur nedzīvos.
Pack for yourselves baggage to carry into exile, you who live in Egypt. For Memphis will become a waste, it will lie in ruins and no one will live there.
20 Ēģipte ir dižena tele, dundurs no ziemeļiem nāk, tiešām nāk.
Egypt is a very beautiful young cow, but a stinging insect is coming from the north. It is coming.
21 Arī viņas karavīri viņas vidū ir kā baroti teļi; tomēr arī tie griež muguru, visi kopā bēg un nestāv, jo viņu nelaimes diena tiem uzbrukusi, viņu piemeklēšanas laiks.
The hired soldiers in her midst are like a fattened bull, but they will also turn away and run away. They will not stand together, for the day of their disaster is coming against them, the time of their punishment.
22 Viņas balss būs, tā kā čab, čūskai lienot, jo tie celsies uz turieni ar karaspēku un nāks pie viņiem ar cirvjiem, kā malkas cirtēji.
Egypt hisses like a snake and crawls away, for her enemies are marching against her. They are going toward her like woodcutters with axes.
23 Tie nocirtīs viņas mežu, saka Tas Kungs, jebšu tas ir liels un biezs, jo to ir vairāk nekā siseņu, ka tos nevar skaitīt.
They will cut down the forests—this is Yahweh's declaration—although it is very dense. For the enemies will be more numerous than locusts, unable to be counted.
24 Ēģiptes meita stāv kaunā, rokā dota ļaudīm no ziemeļiem.
The daughter of Egypt will be made ashamed. She will be given into the hand of people from the north.”
25 Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs, saka: redzi, Es piemeklēšu Amonu Noā un Faraonu un Ēģipti un viņas dievus un viņas ķēniņus, Faraonu un tos, kas uz viņu paļaujas;
Yahweh of hosts, the God of Israel, says, “See, I am about to punish Amon of Thebes, Pharaoh, Egypt and her gods, her kings the Pharaohs, and those who trust in them.
26 Un Es tos nodošu tiem rokā, kas viņu dvēseles meklē, un Nebukadnecara, Bābeles ķēniņa, rokā, un viņa kalpu rokā. Bet pēcgalā tur dzīvos tā kā vecos laikos, saka Tas Kungs.
I am giving them into the hand of the ones seeking their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and his servants. Then after this Egypt will be inhabited as in previous days—this is Yahweh's declaration.
27 Bet tu, nebīsties, Mans kalps Jēkab, un neiztrūcinājies, Israēl! Jo redzi, Es tevi atpestīšu no tālienes un tavu dzimumu no viņa cietuma zemes; un Jēkabs griezīsies atpakaļ un paliks mierā, un viņam klāsies labi, un neviens viņu neiztrūcinās.
But you, my servant Jacob, do not fear. Do not be dismayed, Israel, for see, I am about to bring you back from far away, and your offspring from the land of their captivity. Then Jacob will return, find peace, and be secure, and there will be no one to terrify him.
28 Tu tad nebīsties, Mans kalps Jēkab, saka Tas Kungs; jo Es esmu pie tevis. Jo Es darīšu galu visām pagānu tautām, kurp Es tevi biju aizdzinis, bet tev Es nedarīšu galu, bet Es tevi pārmācīšu pēc taisnības, un tevi nepametīšu nepārmācītu.
You, my servant Jacob, do not fear—this is Yahweh's declaration—for I am with you, so I will bring complete destruction against all the nations where I scattered you. But I will not destroy you completely. Yet I will discipline you justly and will certainly not leave you unpunished.”
