< Jeremijas 47 >
1 Šis ir tas vārds, kas notika uz pravieti Jeremiju pret Fīlistiem, pirms Faraons sakāva Gacu.
The word of the Lord which came to Jeremiah the prophet about the Philistines, before Pharaoh's attack on Gaza.
2 Tā saka Tas Kungs: redzi, ūdens celsies no ziemeļiem un plūdīs un pārplūdīs zemi un visu viņas pilnumu, pilsētas, un viņas iedzīvotājus; un tie cilvēki brēks, un visi zemes iedzīvotāji kauks.
This is what the Lord has said: See, waters are coming up out of the north, and will become an overflowing stream, overflowing the land and everything in it, the town and those who are living in it; and men will give a cry, and all the people of the land will be crying out in pain.
3 No skrejošu zirgu varenā trokšņa, no viņu ratu rībēšanas un no viņu riteņu rūkšanas tēvi neraudzīsies atpakaļ pēc bērniem, jo rokas būs nogurušas,
At the noise of the stamping of the feet of his war-horses, at the rushing of his carriages and the thunder of his wheels, fathers will give no thought to their children, because their hands are feeble;
4 Tās dienas dēļ kas nāk, postīt visus Fīlistus un izdeldēt Tiru un Sidonu līdz ar tiem citiem palīgiem; jo Tas Kungs izpostīs Fīlistus, kas atlikušies no Kaftora salas.
Because of the day which is coming with destruction on all the Philistines, cutting off from Tyre and Zidon the last of their helpers: for the Lord will send destruction on the Philistines, the rest of the sea-land of Caphtor.
5 Kailums nāk pār Gacu, Askalona izdeldēta, tas atlikums viņas ielejā. Cik ilgi tu pats gribi graizīties?
The hair is cut off from the head of Gaza; Ashkelon has come to nothing; the last of the Anakim are deeply wounding themselves.
6 Ak vai, Tā Kunga zobens! Cik ilgi tu nerimsi? Lien jel savās makstīs, dusi un esi klusu.
O sword of the Lord, how long will you have no rest? put yourself back into your cover; be at peace, be quiet.
7 Bet kā tam rimt? Jo Tas Kungs tam pavēlējis pret Askalonu un pret jūrmalu; uz turieni Viņš to sūtījis.
How is it possible for it to be quiet, seeing that the Lord has given it orders? against Ashkelon and against the sea-land he has given it directions.
