< 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.
“At that time—this is Yahweh's declaration—they will bring out from the graves the bones of the kings of Judah and its officials, the bones of the priests and the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
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.
Then they will spread them out in the light of the sun and moon and all the stars of the skies; these things in the sky that they have followed and served, that they have walked after and sought, and that they have worshiped. The bones will not be gathered or buried again. They will be like dung on the surface of the earth.
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.
In every remaining place where I have driven them, they will choose death instead of life for themselves, all who are still left over from this evil nation—this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts.
4 Un saki uz tiem: tā saka Tas Kungs: kad krīt, vai atkal neceļas: kad nogriežas, vai atkal negriežas atpakaļ?
So say to them, 'Yahweh says this: Does anyone fall and not get up? Does anyone get lost and not try to return?
5 Kāpēc tad šie Jeruzālemes ļaudis atkāpjas bez mitēšanās atkāpdamies? Tie stipri turas pie viltus un liedzās atgriezties.
Why has this people, Jerusalem, turned away in permanent faithlessness? They hold on to treachery and refuse to repent.
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 paid attention and listened, but they did not speak right; no one was sorry for his wickedness, no one who says, “What have I done?” All of them go where they wish, like a stallion rushing toward 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.
Even the stork in heaven knows the right times; and the doves, swifts, and cranes. They go on their migrations at the right time, but my people do not know Yahweh's decrees.
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.
How can you say, “We are wise, for the law of Yahweh is with us”? Indeed, see! The deceitful pen of the scribes has created deceit.
9 Gudrie top apkaunoti, iztrūcināti un sagūstīti; redzi, Tā Kunga vārdu tie ir atmetuši, kāda gudrība tad tiem ir?
The wise men will be ashamed. They are dismayed and trapped. Behold! They reject Yahweh's word, so what use is their wisdom?
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 others, and their fields to those who will possess them, because from the least to the greatest, all of them are greedy for dishonest gain! From the prophet to the priest, all of them practice deceit.
11 Un tie dziedina Manas tautas vainu kā par nieku un saka: miers! Miers! Kur tomēr miera nav.
They healed the wounds of my people lightly, saying, “Peace, Peace,” when there was no peace.
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.
Were they ashamed when they practiced abominations? They were not ashamed; they did not know how to blush! So they will fall among the fallen; they will be brought down when they are punished, says Yahweh.
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 remove them completely—this is Yahweh's declaration—there will be no grapes on the vine, nor will there be figs on the fig trees. For the leaf will wither, and what I have given to them will pass away.
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.
Why are we sitting here? Come together; let us go to the fortified cities, and we will become silent there in death. For Yahweh our God will silence us. He will make us drink poison, since we have sinned against him.
15 Gaida mieru, bet nav labuma, dziedināšanas laiku, bet redzi, izbailes.
We are hoping for peace, but there will be nothing good. We are hoping for a time of healing, but see, there will be terror.
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.
The snorting of his stallions is heard from Dan. The whole earth shakes at the sound of the neighing of his strong horses. For they will come and consume the land and its wealth, the city and the ones living in it.
17 Jo redzi, Es sūtu jūsu starpā čūskas un odzes, pret ko nepalīdz vārdošana, - tās jūs kodīs, saka Tas Kungs!
For see, I am sending out snakes among you, vipers that you cannot charm. They will bite you—this is Yahweh's declaration.'”
18 Kas mani iepriecinās skumjās! Mana sirds man gurst.
My sorrow has no end, and my heart is sick.
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?
Behold! The screaming voice of the daughter of my people from a land far away! Is Yahweh not in Zion? Is her king no longer there? Why then do they provoke me to anger with their carved figures and their worthless foreign idols?
20 Pļauja ir pagājusi, augļu laiks pagalam, bet mēs neesam atpestīti.
The harvest has passed on, summer is over. But we have not been saved.
21 Es esmu satriekts savas tautas posta dēļ, es esmu noskumis, izbailes mani sagrābušas.
I am hurt because of the hurt of the daughter of my people. I mourn at the horrible things that have happened to her; I am dismayed.
22 Vai tad zāļu nav Gileādā? Vai tur nav ārsta? Kāpēc tad manas tautas sērga nav dziedināta?
Is there no medicine in Gilead? Is there no healer there? Why will the healing of the daughter of my people not happen?
