< Raudu Dziesmas 2 >
1 Ak kā Tas Kungs ar Savu dusmību apklājis Ciānas meitu! Israēla godību Viņš nometis no debesīm zemē, nav pieminējis Savu kāju pameslu Savas dusmības dienā!
Aleph. How hath the Lord covered with obscurity the daughter of Sion in his wrath! how hath he cast down from heaven to the earth the glorious one of Israel, and hath not remembered his footstool in the day of his anger!
2 Tas Kungs visus Jēkaba dzīvokļus aprijis un nav žēlojis; Viņš Jūda meitas stiprās pilis ir nolauzījis Savā dusmībā; Viņš nometis pie zemes, Viņš sagānījis to valsti un viņas valdniekus,
Beth. The Lord hath cast down headlong, and hath not spared, all that was beautiful in Jacob: he hath destroyed in his wrath the strong holds of the virgin of Juda, and brought them down to the ground: he hath made the kingdom unclean, and the princes thereof.
3 Savā bargā dusmībā Viņš salauzis ikvienu Israēla ragu; Viņš Savu labo roku atvilcis, kad ienaidnieki nāca, Viņš iededzies pret Jēkabu kā uguns liesma, kas rij visapkārt.
Ghimel. He hath broken in his fierce anger all the horn of Israel: he hath drawn back his right hand from before the enemy: and he hath kindled in Jacob as it were a flaming fire devouring round about.
4 Viņš Savu stopu uzvilcis kā ienaidnieks, un Savu labo roku pacēlis kā pretinieks un visu nokāvis, kas acīm patīk; Viņš Savu bardzību izgāzis kā uguni Ciānas meitas dzīvoklī.
Daleth. He hath bent his bow as an enemy, he hath fixed his right hand as an adversary: and he hath killed all that was fair to behold in the tabernacle of the daughter of Sion, he hath poured out his indignation like fire.
5 Tas Kungs palicis par ienaidnieku, Viņš Israēli aprijis; Viņš aprijis visus viņa skaistos namus, Viņš nopostījis viņa stiprās pilis un Jūda meitai ir vairojis nopūtas un vaidus.
He. The Lord is become as an enemy: he hath cast down Israel headlong, he hath overthrown all the walls thereof: he hath destroyed his strong holds, and hath multiplied in the daughter of Juda the afflicted, both men and women.
6 Viņš noplēsis Savu dzīvokli, kas bija kā dārzs, un nopostījis Savu saiešanas vietu; Tas Kungs Ciānā licis aizmirst svētkus un svētdienas, un Savā bargā dusmībā atmetis ķēniņu un priesteri.
Vau. And he hath destroyed his tent as a garden, he hath thrown down his tabernacle: the Lord hath caused feasts and sabbaths to be forgotten in Sion: and hath delivered up king and priest to reproach, and to the indignation of his wrath.
7 Tas Kungs atmetis Savu altāri, Viņš iznīcinājis Savu svēto vietu; viņas skaisto namu mūrus Viņš ienaidniekiem devis rokā, šie Tā Kunga namā balsi pacēluši tā kā svētku dienā.
Zain. The Lord hath cast off his altar, he hath cursed his sanctuary: he hath delivered the walls of the towers thereof into the hand of the enemy: they have made a noise in the house of the Lord, as in the day of a solemn feast.
8 Tas Kungs nodomājis samaitāt Ciānas meitas mūrus, Viņš to mērauklu vilcis, Savu roku Viņš nav atgriezis, kamēr to aprija; un Viņš apbēdinājis valni un mūri; tie abi sagruvuši.
Heth. The Lord hath purposed to destroy the wall of the daughter of Sion: he hath stretched out his line, and hath not withdrawn his hand from destroying: and the bulwark hath mourned, and the wall hath been destroyed together.
9 Viņas vārti nogrimuši zemē, Viņš viņas aizšaujamos maitājis un satriecis; viņas ķēniņš un viņas lielkungi ir starp pagāniem, bez bauslības, arī viņas pravieši neatrod vairs parādīšanu no Tā Kunga.
Teth. Her gates are sunk into the ground: he hath destroyed, and broken her bars: her king and her princes are among the Gentiles: the law is no more, and her prophets have found no vision from the Lord.
10 Ciānas meitas vecaji sēž pie zemes un cieš klusu, tie met pīšļus uz savu galvu un apjozuši maisus; Jeruzālemes meitas nokārušas savu galvu pie zemes.
Jod. The ancients of the daughter of Sion sit upon the ground, they have held their peace: they have sprinkled their heads with dust, they are girded with haircloth, the virgins of Jerusalem hang down their heads to the ground.
11 Manas acis izēstas no asarām, manas iekšas rūgst; manas aknas ir izkratītas pie zemes manu ļaužu meitas posta dēļ, tādēļ ka bērniņi un zīdāmie iztvīkst pa pilsētas ielām;
Caph. My eyes have failed with weeping, my bowels are troubled: my liver is poured out upon the earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people, when the children, and the sucklings, fainted away in the streets of the city.
12 Uz savām mātēm tie sauca: kur ir labība un vīns? Kad tie pamira kā nokauti pa pilsētas ielām, un savu dvēseli izlaida savas mātes klēpī.
Lamed. They said to their mothers: Where is corn and wine? when they fainted away as the wounded in the streets of the city: when they breathed out their souls in the bosoms of their mothers.
13 Kādu liecību es tev varu atnest, kam es tevi varu līdzināt, Jeruzālemes meita? Kam es tevi varu līdzināt, ka es tevi iepriecinātu, ak jaunava, Ciānas meita! Jo tavs posts ir liels kā jūra; kas tevi var dziedināt?
Mem. To what shall I compare thee? or to what shall I liken thee, O daughter of Jerusalem? to what shall I equal thee, that I may comfort thee, O virgin daughter of Sion? for great as the sea is thy destruction: who shall heal thee?
14 Tavi pravieši tev sludinājuši nelietību un viltu un tev nav atklājuši tavu noziegumu, ka tavu cietumu novērstu, bet tev sludinājuši nelietīgas un viltīgas mācības.
Nun. Thy prophets have seen false and foolish things for thee: and they have not laid open thy iniquity, to excite thee to penance: but they have seen for thee false revelations and banishments.
15 Visi, kas tev iet garām, plaukšķina ar rokām par tevi, tie svilpo un krata savas galvas par Jeruzālemes meitu: „Vai šī tā pilsēta, par ko sacīja: ka tā, tā visskaistākā un visas zemes prieks?“
Samech. All they that passed by the way have clapped their hands at thee: they have hissed, and wagged their heads at the daughter of Jerusalem, saying: Is this the city of perfect beauty, the joy of all the earth?
16 Visi tavi ienaidnieki atplēš savu muti pret tevi, svilpo un sakož zobus un saka: mēs to esam aprijuši. Redzi, šī ir tā diena, uz ko mēs gaidījām, mēs to esam sagaidījuši, mēs to esam redzējuši.
Phe. All thy enemies have opened their mouth against thee: they have hissed, and gnashed with the teeth, and have said: We will swallow her up: lo, this is the day which we looked for: we have found it, we have seen it.
17 Tas Kungs ir darījis, ko bija nodomājis, Viņš Savu vārdu piepildījis, ko bija pavēlējis sendienās; Viņš ir salauzis un nav žēlojis un ienaidnieku par tevi darījis priecīgu un paaugstinājis tavu pretinieku ragu.
Ain. The Lord hath done that which he purposed, he hath fulfilled his word, which he commanded in the days of old: he hath destroyed, and hath not spared, and he hath caused the enemy to rejoice over thee, and hath set up the horn of thy adversaries.
18 Viņu sirds brēc uz To Kungu. Ak Ciānas meitas mūri, lai dienām naktīm asaras plūst kā upe, un nedodies mierā, un tava acs lai nežūst.
Sade. Their heart cried to the Lord upon the walls of the daughter of Sion: Let tears run down like a torrent day and night: give thyself no rest, and let not the apple of thy eye cease.
19 Celies, brēc naktī; kad sāk tumsa mesties, tad izgāz Tā Kunga priekšā savu sirdi kā ūdeni, pacel savas rokas uz Viņu par savu bērniņu dvēselēm, kas badu miruši pa visu ielu galiem.
Coph. Arise, give praise in the night, in the beginning of the watches: pour out thy heart like water before the face of the Lord: lift up thy hands to him for the life of thy little children, that have fainted for hunger at the top of all the streets.
20 Redzi, Kungs, lūko jel, kam Tu tā esi darījis? Vai tad sievām būs ēst savas miesas augļus, tos bērniņus, ko auklējušas? Vai tad priesteriem un praviešiem būs tapt nokautiem Tā Kunga svētā vietā?
Res. Behold, O Lord, and consider whom thou hast thus dealt with: shall women then eat their own fruit, their children of a span long? shall the priest and the prophet be slain in the sanctuary of the Lord?
21 Jauni un veci guļ pie zemes pa ielām, manas jaunavas un mani jaunekļi krituši caur zobenu; Tu tos esi nokāvis Savas bardzības dienā, Tu esi nokāvis un neesi žēlojis.
Sin. The child and the old man lie without on the ground: my virgins and my young men are fallen by the sword: thou hast slain them in the day of thy wrath: thou hast killed, and shewn them no pity.
22 Tu manus iztrūcinātājus visapkārt esi saaicinājis, kā uz svētku dienu, un Tā Kunga bardzības dienā neviens nav izglābies nedz atlicis; ko es auklēju un audzināju, mans ienaidnieks tos nokāvis.
Thau. Thou hast called as to a festival, those that should terrify me round about, and there was none in the day of the wrath of the Lord that escaped and was left: those that I brought up, and nourished, my enemy hath consumed them.
