Jeremijas 8
1 Tanī laikā, saka Tas Kungs, Jūda ķēniņu kaulus un viņu lielkungu kaulus un viņu priesteru kaulus un praviešu kaulus un Jeruzālemes iedzīvotāju kaulus izmetīs no viņu kapiem.
Yahweh says, “At the time [that your corpses are scattered on the ground], [your enemies will] break open the graves of your kings and [other] officials who lived in Judah, and the graves of your priests and prophets and other people who lived there.
2 Un izmētās pret sauli un pret mēnesi un pret visu debess pulku, ko tie mīlējuši un kam tie kalpojuši un kam tie dzinušies pakaļ un ko tie meklējuši un ko tie pielūguši. Ne tos sakrās, ne tos apraks, tie būs par mēsliem zemes virsū.
They will take out their bones [from their graves] and [dishonor them by] scattering them on the ground under the sun and the moon and the stars— those are the gods which my people loved and served and worshiped. No one will gather up their bones and bury them [again]; they will remain scattered on the ground like dung.
3 Un nāvi vēlēsies dzīvības vietā visi atlikušie, kas no šās niknās cilts atliks visās malās, kurp Es tos atlikušos būšu aizdzinis, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
And all the people of this wicked nation [who are still alive and] whom I have exiled to other countries will say, ‘We would prefer to die than to continue to stay alive [here in these countries].’ [That will be true because I], Yahweh, have said it.”
4 Un saki uz tiem: tā saka Tas Kungs: kad krīt, vai atkal neceļas: kad nogriežas, vai atkal negriežas atpakaļ?
[Yahweh said to me, “Jeremiah], tell the people that this is what [I], Yahweh, am saying to them: ‘When people fall down, they get up again, do they not [RHQ]? When people are going along a road and find out that they are walking on the wrong road, they go back [and find the correct road], do they not [RHQ]?
5 Kāpēc tad šie Jeruzālemes ļaudis atkāpjas bez mitēšanās atkāpdamies? Tie stipri turas pie viltus un liedzās atgriezties.
[Yes, they do], so why do these people [of Judah] continue [trusting in those idols that have deceived them]? They continue turning away from me, [even though I have warned them].
6 Es esmu vērā ņēmis un dzirdējis: tie runā, kas nepareizi; neviena nav, kam būtu žēl savas blēdības, kas sacītu: ko esmu darījis? Visi atkāpjas, skriedami kā traks ērzelis kas karā.
I have listened carefully [DOU] [to what they say], but they do not say what they should say. Not one of them is sorry for having sinned. No one says, “I have done [RHQ] wicked things.” They are [sinning and] doing what they want to as fast as [SIM] a horse that is running into a battle.
7 Stārķis apakš debess zin savus laikus, un ūbele un dzērve un bezdelīga ņem vērā savu atnākšanas laiku, bet mani ļaudis neatzīst Tā Kunga tiesu.
All the birds [that fly south for the (winter/cold season)] know the time that they need to fly south, and they all return at the right time the following year. But my people [are not like those birds]! They do not know what [I], Yahweh, require them to do.
8 Kā tad jūs sakāt: mēs esam gudri, un Tā Kunga bauslība ir pie mums? Tiešām, redzi, rakstu mācītāju viltīgie raksti to pārvērtuši par meliem.
Your men who teach you [the laws that Moses wrote] have been saying false things [about those laws]. [So], why [RHQ] do they [continue] saying, “We are [very] wise [because] we have the laws of Yahweh”?
9 Gudrie top apkaunoti, iztrūcināti un sagūstīti; redzi, Tā Kunga vārdu tie ir atmetuši, kāda gudrība tad tiem ir?
Those teachers, who think that [IRO] they are wise, will be ashamed/disgraced and dismayed when they are taken [to other countries by their enemies] because they sinned by rejecting what I told them. Truly, they were not [RHQ] very wise to do that!
10 Tādēļ Es viņu sievas došu citiem, viņu tīrumus svešiem mantiniekiem; jo mazi un lieli, visi kāri pēc mantas; pravietis un priesteris, abi dzen viltību.
So, I will give their wives to other men; I will give their fields to [the enemy soldiers] who conquer them. All the people, including those who are important and those who are not important, deceive [others] in order to obtain their possessions. Even [my] prophets and my priests do that.
11 Un tie dziedina Manas tautas vainu kā par nieku un saka: miers! Miers! Kur tomēr miera nav.
[They act as though the sins of my people] are not serious, [like] [MET] wounds that do not need to be cleaned and bandaged. They tell the people that everything will go well with them, [but that is not true]; things will not go well with them.
12 Tie ir tapuši kaunā, tāpēc ka darījuši negantību, bet tie nemaz nekaunas un kauna neprot; tādēļ tie kritīs starp tiem kritušiem, savas piemeklēšanas laikā tie gāzīsies pie zemes, saka Tas Kungs.
They should be [RHQ] ashamed when they do disgusting things [RHQ], but they do not even know how to show on their faces that they are ashamed [about their sins]. So, [they will be killed, and] their corpses [also] will lie among the corpses of others who have been slaughtered [by their enemies]. They will be killed when I punish them.
13 Es tos rautin aizraušu, saka Tas Kungs, ka ķekari nepaliks pie vīna koka nedz vīģes pie vīģes koka, ir lapas nokritīs, un Es tiem dodu, kas pār tiem nāks.
I will [allow their enemies to] take away the figs and grapes that the people would have harvested from their fields. Their fruit trees will all wither. They will not receive [all] the blessings that I prepared for them. [This will certainly happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.’”
14 Ko tad kavējamies? Pulcējaties un iesim stiprās pilsētās un meklēsim tur galu! Jo Tas Kungs, mūsu Dievs, mums nolicis galu un mūs dzirdinājis ar žulti, tāpēc ka esam apgrēkojušies pret To Kungu.
[Then the people will say], “(Why should we wait here [in these small towns]?/We should not wait here [in these small towns].) [RHQ]! We should go to the cities that have high walls around them, [but even if we do that] we will be killed there, because Yahweh our God has decided that we must be destroyed; [it is as though] [MET] he has given us a cup of poison to drink, because we sinned against him.
15 Gaida mieru, bet nav labuma, dziedināšanas laiku, bet redzi, izbailes.
We hoped/desired that things would go well for us, but things have not gone well. We hoped that bad things would not happen to us any more, but only things that terrify us [are happening to us].
16 No Dana jau dzirdama viņa zirgu šņākšana; visa zeme dreb no viņa ērzeļu zviegšanas skaņas; tie nāk un noēd zemi ar viņas pilnumu, pilsētas un kas tur dzīvo.
People [far north in Israel] in [the city of] Dan can already hear the snorting of the horses of their enemies [who are preparing to attack us]. [It is as though] the entire land [of Judah] is shaking as their army approaches; they are coming to destroy our land and everything in it, the people and the cities.”
17 Jo redzi, Es sūtu jūsu starpā čūskas un odzes, pret ko nepalīdz vārdošana, - tās jūs kodīs, saka Tas Kungs!
[Yahweh says], “I will send [those enemy soldiers to Judah], and they will be like [MET] poisonous snakes among you. No one will be able to stop them from attacking you [MET]; they will attack you like snakes do, [and kill you].”
18 Kas mani iepriecinās skumjās! Mana sirds man gurst.
I grieve very much [for the people of Judah], and my grieving does not end. I am very sad [IDM].
19 Redzi, Manas tautas kliegšanas balss skan no tālas zemes: vai tad Tas Kungs vairs nav Ciānā? Vai viņas ķēniņš tur nav? Kāpēc tie Mani apkaitinājuši ar saviem dievekļiem, ar svešām nelietībām?
Throughout our land, the people ask, “Has Yahweh abandoned Jerusalem? Is [he], our city’s king, no longer there?” [Yahweh replies], “Why do the people cause me to become very angry by [worshiping] idols and foreign gods?” [RHQ]
20 Pļauja ir pagājusi, augļu laiks pagalam, bet mēs neesam atpestīti.
[The people say], “The harvest [season] is finished, the (summer/hot season) has ended, [and we hoped that we would receive blessings from Yahweh], but he has not rescued us [from our enemies].”
21 Es esmu satriekts savas tautas posta dēļ, es esmu noskumis, izbailes mani sagrābušas.
I cry because my people have been crushed. I mourn, and I am completely dismayed.
22 Vai tad zāļu nav Gileādā? Vai tur nav ārsta? Kāpēc tad manas tautas sērga nav dziedināta?
[I ask], “Surely there is [RHQ] medicinal balm in the Gilead [region]! Surely there are [RHQ] doctors there!” But my people have been badly wounded [in their spirits], and nothing can heal them.
