< Jeremijas 7 >
1 Šis ir tas vārds, kas notika uz Jeremiju no Tā Kunga, kas sacīja:
2 Stājies Tā Kunga nama vārtos un sludini tur šo vārdu un saki: klausiet Tā Kunga vārdu, visi no Jūda, kas caur šiem vārtiem ieejat, To Kungu pielūgt.
Hear you the word of the Lord, all Judea.
3 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs: dariet taisnus savus ceļus un savus darbus, tad es jums likšu dzīvot šinī vietā.
Thus says the Lord God of Israel, Correct your ways and your devices, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.
4 Nepaļaujaties uz melu vārdiem, kad saka: šis ir Tā Kunga nams, Tā Kunga nams, Tā Kunga nams!
Trust not in yourselves with lying words, for they shall not profit you at all, saying, It is the temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord.
5 Bet ja patiesi darīsiet labus savus ceļus un savus darbus un nesīsiet tikuši(taisnīgu) tiesu cits citam,
For if you thoroughly correct your ways and your practices, and do indeed execute judgment between a man and his neighbor;
6 Ja neapbēdināsiet svešinieku, bāriņu un atraitni un neizliesiet nenoziedzīgas asinis šinī vietā un nedzīsities pakaļ svešiem dieviem, sev pašiem par postu,
and oppress not the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, and go not after strange gods to your hurt:
7 Tad Es jums likšu dzīvot šai vietā, tai zemē, ko Es esmu devis jūsu tēviem, mūžīgi mūžam.
then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land which I gave to your fathers of old and for ever.
8 Redzi, jūs paļaujaties uz melu vārdiem, kas nekam nelīdz.
But whereas you have trusted in lying words, whereby you shall not be profited;
9 Vai tad jums bija zagt, nokaut un laulību pārkāpt un nepatiesi zvērēt un Baālam kvēpināt un dzīties pakaļ citiem dieviem, ko nepazīstat,
and you murder, and commit adultery, and steal, and swear falsely, and burn incense to Baal, and are gone after strange gods whom you know not,
10 Un tad nākt un stāties Manā priekšā šinī namā, kas nosaukts pēc Mana Vārda, un sacīt: mēs esam glābti, šo negantību darīt?
so that it is evil with you; yet have you come, and stood before me in the house, whereon my name is called, and you have said, We have refrained from doing all these abominations.
11 Vai tad šis nams, kas nosaukts pēc Mana Vārda, ir slepkavu bedre jūsu acīs? Redzi, Es to gan esmu redzējis, saka Tas Kungs.
Is my house, whereon my name is called, a den of robbers in your eyes? And, behold, I have seen [it], says the Lord.
12 Jo ejat jel uz Manu vietu, kas bija Šīlo, kur Es Savam vārdam papriekš liku mājot, un lūkojiet, ko Es tur esmu darījis Savu Israēla ļaužu ļaunuma dēļ.
For go you to my place with is in Selo, where I caused my name to dwell before, and see what I did to it because of the wickedness of my people Israel.
13 Un nu tādēļ ka jūs visus šos darbus darāt, saka Tas Kungs, un Es uz jums tikuši(nemitīgi) esmu runājis, bet jūs neesat klausījuši, Es jūs esmu aicinājis, bet jūs neesat atbildējuši,
And now, because you have done all these deeds, and I spoke to you, but you listened not to me; and I called you, but you answered not;
14 Tad Es šim namam, kas pēc Mana Vārda nosaukts, uz ko jūs paļaujaties, un pie šās vietas, ko Es jums un jūsu tēviem esmu devis, tāpat darīšu, kā esmu darījis Šīlo.
therefore I also will do to the house whereon my name is called, wherein you trust, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I did to Selo.
15 Un Es jūs atmetīšu no Sava vaiga, tā kā esmu atmetis visus jūsu brāļus un visu Efraīma dzimumu.
And I will cast you out of my sight, as I cast away your brethren, all the seed of Ephraim.
16 Tu tad nelūdz priekš šiem ļaudīm un nenes Manā priekšā par viņiem ne piesaukšanu ne lūgšanu, un neaizlūdz pie Manis, jo Es tevi neklausīšu.
Therefore pray not you for this people, and intercede not for them to be pitied, yes, pray not, and approach me not for them: for I will not listen [to you].
17 Vai tu neredzi, ko tie dara Jūda pilsētās un Jeruzālemes ielās?
Seest you not what they do in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
18 Bērni salasa malku, un tēvi kurina uguni, un sievas mīca mīklu un taisa raušus debess ķēniņienei un upurē dzeramus upurus citiem dieviem, Mani kaitināt.
Their children gather wood, and their fathers kindle a fire, and their women knead dough, to make cakes to the host of heaven; and they have poured out drink-offerings to strange gods, that they might provoke me to anger.
19 Bet vai tad tie Mani apkaitina? saka Tas Kungs. Vai tie to (nedara) sev pašiem par kaunu?
Do they provoke me to anger? says the Lord: do they not [provoke] themselves, that their faces may be ashamed?
20 Tādēļ tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: redzi, Mana dusmība un Mana bardzība izgāzīsies pār šo vietu, pār cilvēkiem un lopiem un meža kokiem un zemes augļiem un degs un neizdzisīs.
Therefore thus says the Lord; Behold, my anger and wrath shall be poured out upon this place, and upon the men, and upon the cattle, and upon every tree of their field, and upon the fruits of the land; and it shall burn, and not be quenched.
21 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs: liekat savus dedzināmos upurus klāt pie saviem kaujamiem upuriem un ēdat gaļu.
Thus says the Lord, Gather your whole burnt offerings with your meat-offerings, and eat flesh.
22 Jo jūsu tēviem, kad Es tos izvedu no Ēģiptes zemes, Es neesmu ne teicis ne pavēlējis par dedzināmiem upuriem nedz kaujamiem upuriem.
For I spoke not to your fathers, and commanded them not in the day wherein I brought them up out of the land of Egypt, concerning whole burnt offerings and sacrifice:
23 Bet šo vārdu Es tiem esmu pavēlējis un sacījis: klausiet Manu balsi, tad Es jums būšu par Dievu un jūs Man būsiet par ļaudīm, un staigājiet pa visiem tiem ceļiem, ko Es jums pavēlēšu, lai jums labi klājās.
but I commanded them this thing, saying, Hear you my voice, and I will be to you a God, and you shall be to me a people: and walk you in all my ways which I shall command you, that it may be well with you.
24 Bet tie nav klausījuši nedz savas ausis atgriezuši, bet staigājuši pēc savas ļaunās sirds padoma un prāta, un Man ir pagriezuši muguru un ne vaigu.
But they listened not to me, and their ear gave no heed, but they walked in the imaginations of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward;
25 No tās dienas, kad jūsu tēvi izgājuši no Ēģiptes zemes līdz šai dienai, Es vienā sūtīšanā pie jums esmu sūtījis visus Savus kalpus, tos praviešus.
from the day that their fathers went forth out of the land of Egypt, even until this day. And I sent to you all my servants, the prophets, by day and early in the morning: yes, I sent [them],
26 Bet tie Mani nav klausījuši, nedz savas ausis atgriezuši, bet bijuši stūrgalvīgi, niknāki turēdamies nekā viņu tēvi.
but they listened not to me, and their ear gave no heed; and they made their neck harder than their fathers.
27 Tu gan visus šos vārdus uz viņiem runāsi, bet tie tevi neklausīs, tu tos gan aicināsi, bet tie neatbildēs.
Therefore you shall speak this word to them;
28 Tāpēc saki uz tiem: šie ir tie ļaudis, kas Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, balsi neklausa un mācību nepieņem. Patiesība bojā gājusi un iznīkusi no viņu mutes.
This is the nation which has not listened to the voice of the Lord, nor received correction: truth has failed from their mouth.
29 Nocērp savas galvas greznumu un met to nost, un raudi gauži uz kailiem kalniem, jo Tas Kungs atmetis un atstājis šo Savas dusmības cilti.
Cut off your hair, and cast it away, and take up a lamentation on your lips; for the Lord has reprobated and rejected the generation that does these things.
30 Jo Jūda bērni ir darījuši, kas ļauns Manās acīs, saka Tas Kungs. Tie savus negantos elkus likuši tai namā, kas nosaukts pēc Mana Vārda, to sagānīdami;
For the children of Juda have wrought evil before me, says the Lord; they have set their abominations in the house on which my name is called, to defile it.
31 Un ir uzcēluši Tovetes altārus Ben-Inoma ielejā, sadedzināt savus dēlus un savas meitas ar uguni, ko Es neesmu pavēlējis, un kas nav nācis Manā sirdī.
And they have built the altar of Taphes, which is in the valley of the son of Ennom, to burn their sons and their daughters with fire; which I did not command them [to do], neither did I design it in my heart.
32 Tādēļ redzi, nāks dienas, saka Tas Kungs, ka to vairs nesauks par Toveti un Ben-Inoma ieleju, bet par slepkavu ieleju, un Tovetē apbedīs, jo citur vietas nebūs.
Therefore, behold, the days come, says the Lord, when they shall no more say, The altar of Taphes, and the valley of the son of Ennom, but, The valley of the slain; and they shall bury in Taphes, for lack of room.
33 Un šo ļaužu miroņi būs par barību putniem apakš debess un zvēriem virs zemes, un neviens tos neaizdzīs.
And the dead bodies of this people shall be for food to the birds of the sky, and to the wild beasts of the earth; and there shall be none to drive [them] away.
34 Un Es darīšu, ka Jūda pilsētās un Jeruzālemes ielās mitēsies prieka balss un līksmības balss, brūtgāna balss un brūtes balss; jo tā zeme būs postā.
And I will destroy out of the cities of Juda, and the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of them that make merry, and the voice of them that rejoice, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride; for the whole land shall become a desolation.
