< Joēla 3 >

1 Jo redzi, tanīs dienās un tanī laikā, kad Es Jūda un Jeruzālemes cietumu atgriezīšu,
For lo, in those days, and in that time, When I turn back [to] the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,
2 Tad Es sapulcināšu visus pagānus un tos novedīšu uz Jehošafata ieleju un tur ar tiem tiesāšos Savu ļaužu dēļ un Sava īpašuma, Israēla, dēļ, ko tie izkaisījuši tautu starpā un izdalījuši Manu zemi.
Then I have gathered all the nations, And caused them to go down unto the valley of Jehoshaphat, And I have been judged with them there, Concerning My people and Mine inheritance — Israel, Whom they scattered among nations, And My land they have apportioned.
3 Un par Maniem ļaudīm tie meslus metuši un puisēnu devuši par mauku un meiteni pārdevuši par vīnu un ir dzēruši.
And for My people they do cast a lot, And they give the young man for an harlot, And the young woman have sold for wine, That they may drink.
4 Un jūs no Tirus un Sidonas un visām Fīlistu robežām, kas jums ar Mani? Vai jūs Man ko gribat atdarīt, ko Es jums darījis, jeb vai jūs Man ko gribat padarīt? Ātri un piepeši Es to atmaksāšu uz jūsu galvu.
And also, what [are] ye to Me, O Tyre and Zidon, And all circuits of Philistia? Recompence are ye rendering unto Me? And if ye are giving recompence to Me, Swiftly, hastily, I turn back your recompence on your head.
5 Tāpēc ka jūs esat laupījuši Manu sudrabu un Manu zeltu, un Manus dārgumus nesuši savu dievekļu namos;
In that My silver and My gold ye took, And My desirable things that are good, Ye have brought in to your temples.
6 Un Jūda bērnus un Jeruzālemes bērnus jūs esat pārdevuši Grieķiem, tos tālu aizdzīt no viņa robežām:
And sons of Judah, and sons of Jerusalem, Ye have sold to the sons of Javan, To put them far off from their border.
7 Redzi, Es tos uzmodināšu no tās vietas, kurp jūs tos esat pārdevuši, un atmaksāšu jūsu maksu uz jūsu galvām.
Lo, I am stirring them up out of the place Whither ye have sold them, And I have turned back your recompence on your head,
8 Un Es jūsu dēlus un jūsu meitas pārdošu Jūdu bērniem rokā; tie tos pārdos uz Sabu, tautai, kas tālu dzīvo, - jo Tas Kungs to ir runājis.
And have sold your sons and your daughters Into the hand of the sons of Judah, And they have sold them to Shabeans, Unto a nation far off, for Jehovah hath spoken.
9 Izsauciet to starp pagāniem, svētījiet karu, pamodinājiet tos varenos, lai atnāk un ceļas visi karavīri.
Proclaim ye this among nations, Sanctify a war, stir up the mighty ones, Come nigh, come up, let all the men of war.
10 Kaļat savus lemešus par zobeniem un savas cirpes par šķēpiem! Vājais lai saka: es esmu stiprs!
Beat your ploughshares to swords, And your pruning-hooks to javelins, Let the weak say, 'I [am] mighty.'
11 Sapulcējaties un nāciet šurp, visas tautas visapkārt, un sakrājaties! Turp noved, Kungs, savus varenos!
Haste, and come in, all ye nations round, And be gathered together, Thither cause to come down, O Jehovah, Thy mighty ones.
12 Tautas lai ceļas un sanāk Jehošafata ielejā, jo tur Es sēdēšu un tiesāšu visas tautas visapkārt.
Wake and come up let the nations unto the valley of Jehoshaphat, For there I sit to judge all the nations around.
13 Pieliekat cirpi, jo pļaujamais ir gatavs; nāciet, minat, jo vīna spaids ir pilns, un trauki tek pāri, jo viņu blēdība ir liela.
Send ye forth a sickle, For ripened hath harvest, Come in, come down, for filled hath been the press, Overflowed hath wine-presses, For great [is] their wickedness.
14 Troksnis, troksnis tai tiesas ielejā, jo Tā Kunga diena ir tuvu klāt tiesas ielejā.
Multitudes, multitudes [are] in the valley of decision, For near [is] the day of Jehovah in the valley of decision.
15 Saule un mēnesis aptumšojās un zvaigznes ierauj savu spožumu.
Sun and moon have been black, And stars have gathered up their shining.
16 Un Tas Kungs rūc no Ciānas, un no Jeruzālemes viņš paceļ Savu balsi, tā ka debess un zeme dreb. Bet Tas Kungs ir patvērums Saviem ļaudīm un stiprums Israēla bērniem.
And Jehovah from Zion doth roar, And from Jerusalem giveth forth His voice, And shaken have the heavens and earth, And Jehovah [is] a refuge to his people, And a stronghold to sons of Israel.
17 Un jūs manīsiet, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, kas dzīvo Ciānā, Savā svētā kalnā, un Jeruzāleme būs svēta vieta, un sveši tur vairs neies cauri.
And ye have known that I [am] Jehovah your God, Dwelling in Zion, My holy mountain, And Jerusalem hath been holy, And strangers do not pass over into it again.
18 Un tai dienā pilēs salds vīns no kalniem un piens tecēs no pakalniem, un visi Jūda strauti būs pilni ūdens, un avots izlēks no Tā Kunga nama, tas slacinās visu Sitimas ieleju.
And it hath come to pass, in that day, Drop down do the mountains juice, And the hills do flow [with] milk, And all streams of Judah do go [with] water, And a fountain from the house of Jehovah goeth forth, And hath watered the valley of Shittim.
19 Ēģipte taps postā un Edoms par tukšu vietu, tā varas darba dēļ, kas darīts pie Jūda bērniem, kuru zemē tie izlējuši nenoziedzīgas asinis.
Egypt a desolation becometh, And Edom a desolation, a wilderness, becometh, For violence [to] sons of Judah, Whose innocent blood they shed in their land.
20 Bet Jūda pastāvēs mūžīgi un Jeruzāleme uz cilšu ciltīm.
And Judah to the age doth dwell, And Jerusalem to generation and generation.
21 Un Es atriebšu tās asinis, ko Es vēl nebiju atriebis. Un Tas Kungs dzīvos Ciānā.
And I have declared their blood innocent, [That] I did not declare innocent, And Jehovah is dwelling in Zion!
