< Jeremijas 49 >
1 Pret Amona bērniem Tas Kungs tā saka: vai tad Israēlim nav bērnu, vai viņam nav mantinieka? Kāpēc tad Malkoms ir Gada mantinieks, un viņa ļaudis dzīvo šajās pilsētās?
[This message is] about the Ammon people-group. This is what Yahweh says: “There are [RHQ] plenty of Israeli people left to occupy [the land of the tribe of] Gad. So, why are [RHQ] [the people who worship the god] Molech living in those towns?
2 Tādēļ redzi, nāks dienas, saka Tas Kungs, ka Es pār Amona Rabu likšu dzirdēt kara brēkšanu, un tā taps par gruvešu kopu, un viņas apkārtēji ciemi taps ar uguni sadedzināti. Un Israēls iemantos savus mantotājus, saka Tas Kungs.
There will be a time when I will sound the battle-cry [for their enemies] to attack [their capital city], Rabbah. [Then] it will become a heap of ruins, and [all] the nearby towns will be burned. Then [the people of] Israel will again possess the land that the Ammon people-group took away from them.
3 Kauc, Hešbona, jo Aja ir postīta; kauciet, Rabas meitas, apjoziet maisus, vaidiet un skraidiet apkārt gar mūriem, jo Malkoms ies cietumā ar visiem saviem svētītājiem un lielkungiem.
You people of Heshbon [city] [MTY], wail, because Ai [town nearby] will be destroyed. You people of Rabbah [city], weep; put on (rough clothing/sackcloth) [to show you are mourning]; run back and forth [in confusion] inside the city walls, because [your god] Milcom, along with its priests and officials, will be taken away (in exile/to other countries).
4 Ko tu lielies ar savām ielejām? Tavas ielejas ir pārplūdušas, tu atkāpēja meita, kas paļaujies uz savām mantām (un saki): kas celsies pret mani?
You are [RHQ] very proud of your very fertile valleys, [but they will soon be ruined]. You rebellious people, you trusted in your wealth, and you said, ‘Certainly no [RHQ] army will be able to attack us!’
5 Redzi, saka Tas Kungs Dievs Cebaot, es pār tevi vedīšu bailes no visiem, kas ir ap tevi; jūs tapsiet izdzīti, ikkatrs taisni projām, un neviena nebūs, kas tos bēdzējus sapulcina.
But listen to this: 'I, the Commander of the armies of angels, will cause you to become terrified. You will all be forced to flee [to other countries], and no one will be able to bring you together [again].'
6 Bet pēclaikā Es vedīšu atpakaļ Amona bērnu cietumniekus, saka Tas Kungs.
But some day I will enable the Ammon people-group to return to their land. [That will surely happen, because I, ] Yahweh, have said it.”
7 Pret Edomu Tas Kungs Cebaot tā saka: vai tad gudrības vairs nav Temanā? Vai padoms iznīcis pie tiem prātīgiem?
[This message is] about the Edom people-group. This is what the Commander of the armies of angels says: “It seems that [RHQ] there are no wise people in Teman [district in Edom]! There are no people left who can give others [good] advice. The people who were wise [PRS] have disappeared.
8 Vai viņu gudrība izzudusi? Bēdziet, griežaties, slēpjaties, Dedana iedzīvotāji, jo Es vedu nelaimi pār Ēsavu viņa piemeklēšanas laikā.
You people of Dedan [city in the south of Edom], turn and flee and hide in deep [caves], because when I cause the Edom people-group to experience disaster, I will punish you, too.
9 Ja vīna lasītāji tev būtu uznākuši, tad tie kādus ķekarus būtu atstājuši; kad zagļi būtu nākuši naktī, vai tie nebūtu samaitājuši pēc vajadzības?
Those who harvest grapes always [RHQ] leave some on the vines. When thieves come at night, they surely [RHQ] steal only as much as they want.
10 Bet Es Ēsavu esmu atsedzis, Es viņa slepenās vietas esmu atklājis, ka tas nevarēs apslēpties; viņa dzimums ir postīts un viņa brāļi un viņa kaimiņi, un to vairs nav.
But I will cause everything in Edom to be destroyed, and there will be nothing left, and there will be no place for people to hide. [Many of] [HYP] the children, their relatives and their neighbors, will die, and Edom will not exist any more.
11 Atstāj savus bāriņus, tad Es tos uzturēšu dzīvus, un savas atraitnes, lai tās cerē uz Mani.
But I will protect the orphans, and the widows [also] will [be able to] depend on me [to help them].”
12 Jo tā saka Tas Kungs: redzi, kam tiesa nebija biķeri dzert, tiem tiešām jādzer, vai tad tu paliksi bez sodības? Tu nepaliksi bez sodības, bet tu tiešām dzersi.
And this is [also] what Yahweh says: “If those who do not deserve to suffer [MET] must suffer, you people of Edom must [RHQ] suffer much more [DOU]! You will not escape being punished.
13 Jo Es esmu zvērējis pie Sevis paša, saka Tas Kungs, ka Bocrai būs tapt par posta vietu, par apsmieklu, par tuksnesi un par lāstu, un visas viņas pilsētas taps par mūžīgiem tuksnešiem.
I, Yahweh, have solemnly promised, using my own name, that [your chief city] Bozrah will become a place that people will be horrified about. It will be a heap of ruins. People will make fun of it and use its name when they curse people. All the nearby towns and villages will be a ruins forever.”
14 Es esmu dzirdējis ziņu no Tā Kunga, un vēsts ir sūtīta tautām: sapulcinājaties un nāciet pret viņu un ceļaties karā.
I heard this message from Yahweh: “I have sent an ambassador to [many] nations, [to tell them to] gather together to attack Edom. They must prepare for battle!”
15 Jo redzi, Es tevi mazu daru tautu starpā, nicinātu pie cilvēkiem.
[And Yahweh says to the people of Edom, ] “I will cause your nation to become very unimportant among the [other] nations. They will all despise your country.
16 Bailes no tevis tevi pievīlušas, un tava sirds lepnība, tāpēc ka tu dzīvo klints plaisumos un mīti uz augstiem kalniem. Jebšu tu savu ligzdu tik augsti taisītu kā ērglis, tomēr Es tevi no turienes nogrūdīšu, saka Tas Kungs.
You have caused [people of other nations] to be terrified, and you [MTY] have been very proud, but you have deceived yourselves. You live in caves in the rock cliffs; [you think that you are safe there because] you live high up there. But even if you make your homes as high up as the eagles’ nests, I will cause you to come [crashing] down.
17 Tā Edoms būs par tuksnesi, visi, kas viņam ies garām, iztrūcināsies un svilpos par visām viņa mokām;
Edom will become a place about which people are horrified; people who pass by will be horrified and will (gasp/be shocked) when they see the destruction.
18 Tā kā Sodoma un Gomora ir apgāztas līdz ar saviem kaimiņiem, saka Tas Kungs, tā tur neviens nedzīvos, un cilvēka bērns tur nemitīs.
Edom will be destroyed as [completely as] Sodom and Gomorrah and the nearby towns were destroyed [long ago]. [As a result, ] no one will live there [any more] [DOU].
19 Redzi, viņš ceļas kā lauva no Jardānes vareniem biezumiem pret stipriem dzīvokļiem; jo Es viņu no turienes piepeši aizdzīšu, un kas izredzēts, to Es pār to celšu. Jo kas ir tāds kā Es, un kas Mani sauks tiesā, un kas ir tas gans, kas Manā priekšā pastāvēs?
I will come to Edom [suddenly] like [SIM] a lion comes out of the jungle and [leaps on the sheep that are] eating in the good pastureland. I will quickly chase the people of Edom from their land. And [then] I will appoint for them a leader whom I will choose; [I can do that] because there is no one [RHQ] like me who can object to what I do. No ruler can oppose me.
20 Tāpēc klausiet Tā Kunga padomu, ko Viņš nospriedis par Edomu, un Viņa domas, ko Viņš nodomājis par Temana iedzīvotājiem. Tiešām, viņus aizvedīs kā ganāmā pulka jērus; tiešām, viņu ganības iztrūcināsies par viņiem.
Listen to what I have planned to do to the people of Teman [town] and [the rest of] Edom: Even the little children will be dragged away, and I will completely get rid of the people [MET] who live there.
21 Zeme trīcēs no viņu krišanas trokšņa; kliegšana, viņas balss būs dzirdama pie niedru jūras.
When Edom is destroyed, the noise [will be extremely great], with the result that the earth will shake, and the wailing of the people will be heard [as far away as] the Red Sea.
22 Redzi, viņš celsies un skries kā ērglis un izplētīs savus spārnus pār Bocru. Un Edoma vareno sirds būs tai dienā kā sievas sirds bērnu sāpēs.
Look! The enemy troops will swoop/rush down over Bozrah like an eagle spreads its wings when it swoops down [to seize an animal]. On that day, [even the strongest] warriors of Edom will [be afraid] like [SIM] a woman who is about to give birth.”
23 Pret Damasku: Hamata un Arpada kaunas; tās izbijušās, tāpēc ka dzirdējušas bailīgu ziņu; jūrmalā ir bailes, ka nevar dusēt.
[This message is] about Damascus. [This is what Yahweh says]: “[The people in the nearby cities of] Hamath and Arpad are confused, because they have heard bad news [about Damascus]. They are very anxious and restless, like [SIM] a sea in a big storm.
24 Damaskus ir noguris, ir griezies uz bēgšanu, drebuļi to sagrābuši, bailība un sāpes to sagrābušas kā sievu, kas dzemdē.
The people of Damascus have become very weak, and [they all] have (panicked/fled [because] they are very afraid). The people are anguished and in pain like [SIM] a woman [experiences] who is about to give birth.
25 Kā? Vai tā nu nav atstāta, tā slavenā pilsēta, Mana prieka pilsēta?
That famous city, that I was [previously] pleased with, will be abandoned.
26 Tāpēc viņas jaunekļi kritīs pa viņas ielām, un visi karavīri taps izdeldēti tai dienā, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
Its young men will fall in the streets. Its soldiers will all be killed in one day.
27 Un es iededzināšu uguni Damaskus mūros, un tas norīs BenHadada skaistos namus. -
And I, the Commander of the armies of angels, will start a fire to burn the walls that surround Damascus, and the palaces of [King] Ben-Hadad will be burned down.”
28 Pret Ķedaru un Hacora valstīm, ko Nebukadnecars, Bābeles ķēniņš, sakāva, Tas Kungs tā saka: ceļaties, ejat pret Ķedaru, un postait austruma bērnus.
[This is a message] about the Kedar [people-group] and the kingdom of Hazor which [the army of] Nebuchadnezzar King of Babylon attacked. This is what Yahweh says: “[I will cause an army to] advance to attack Kedar and destroy those people who live east [of Judah].
29 Tie paņems viņu dzīvokļus un ganāmos pulkus, viņu teltis un visus viņu rīkus, un aizvedīs sev viņu kamieļus un izsauks pār tiem: briesmas visapkārt!
Their tents and their flocks [of sheep] will be captured. The curtains [in their tents] and their camels and their other possessions will be taken away. [Everywhere] men will shout, ‘We are terrified [because terrible things are happening] all around us!’
30 Bēdziet, skrieniet ātri, paslēpjaties, Hacora iedzīvotāji, saka Tas Kungs! Jo Nebukadnecars, Bābeles ķēniņš, pret jums nospriedis padomu un pret jums nodomājis domas.
So [I, ] Yahweh, say, ‘Run away [quickly]! You people who live in Hazor, go and hide in deep [caves], because King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon wants to attack you [with his army]; he is planning to destroy you!’
31 Ceļaties, ejat pret tiem ļaudīm, kas mierīgi un droši dzīvo, saka Tas Kungs, kam nedz durvju, nedz aizšaujamo, - tie dzīvo par sevi.
But I say [to Nebuchadnezzar], ‘Go up and attack that nation whose people feel secure; they do not have allies [who will help them] and do not have [walls with] gates that have bars in them.
32 Viņu kamieļi būs par laupījumu, un viņu lielie ganāmie pulki taps aizvesti. Un Es izkaisīšu visos vējos tos, kam apcirptas bārdas, un no visām pusēm Es pār viņiem atvedīšu samaitāšanu, saka Tas Kungs.
Your troops will seize their camels and [other] livestock. I will scatter in every direction [IDM] those people who live in remote places (OR, who cut their hair short). I will cause them to experience disasters from every direction.
33 Un Hacors būs par mājas vietu tuksneša zvēriem un postā(neauglīgu vietu) mūžam; tur neviens nedzīvos, cilvēka bērns tur nemitīs.
Hazor will become a place where jackals/wolves live, and it will be deserted forever. No one will live there again; no one will settle there [DOU].’”
34 Šis ir Tā Kunga vārds, kas notika uz pravieti Jeremiju pret Elamu, Cedeķijas, Jūda ķēniņa, valdīšanas iesākumā, sacīdams:
I received this message from Yahweh when King Zedekiah was starting to rule Judah.
35 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: redzi, Es salauzīšu Elama stopu, viņa stiprāko varu.
This is what the Commander of the armies of angels says: “The men of Elam are famous (archers/men who shoot arrows well); that is how they have made their country very powerful. But I will get rid of them [MET].
36 Un Es vedīšu pār Elamu tos četrus vējus no tām četrām debess malām, un Es tos izkaisīšu šinīs vējos, un tautas nebūs, kurp nenāks Elama aizdzītie.
I will bring their enemies from all directions [IDM, DOU], and they will scatter the people of Elam in all directions. The people of Elam will be exiled to every nation on the earth [LIT, HYP].
37 Un Es izbiedināšu Elamu viņa ienaidnieku priekšā un to priekšā, kas meklē viņa dvēseli, un vedīšu pār tiem ļaunumu, savas dusmības karstumu, saka Tas Kungs; un Es sūtīšu zobenu tiem pakaļ, tiekams tiem būšu galu darījis.
Because I am very angry with the people of Elam, I will enable their enemies to smash Elam; I will cause the people of Elam to experience great disasters. I will enable their enemies, who want to kill them, to pursue them [and kill them] with swords until I completely get rid of all of them.
38 Un Es celšu Savu goda krēslu Elamā un iznīcināšu no turienes ķēniņu un lielkungus, saka Tas Kungs.
I, Yahweh, will judge them there [MTY], and [then] I will get rid of their king and [his] officials.
39 Bet pēclaikā Es vedīšu atpakaļ Elama cietumniekus, saka Tas Kungs.
But some day, I will enable the people of Elam to return to their land. [That will surely happen because I, ] Yahweh, have said it.”
