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!
Yahweh was extremely angry [with us]; as a result, [it was as though] [MET] he covered Jerusalem with a dark cloud. Previously it was a beautiful/glorious city, but he has caused it to become a ruins. At the time he punished [MET] Israel, he [even] abandoned his temple [MET] [in Jerusalem].
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,
Yahweh destroyed the homes of [the people of] [PRS] Judah; he did not act mercifully. Because he was very angry, he broke down the fortresses of Judah. He has caused our kingdom and our rulers to become disgraced, and he has gotten rid of them.
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.
Because he was extremely angry, he has caused Israel to not be powerful [MET] any more. He has refused to assist us when our enemies attacked us. He has destroyed Israel like [SIM] a raging fire destroys everything.
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.
He bent his bow [to prepare to shoot us, his people], as though we were his enemies. He [prepared to] kill the people whom we love the most [MET], members of our own families. He is extremely angry [MTY] with us people of Jerusalem; his anger is like [SIM] a 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.
Yahweh has become like an enemy to [us] Israelis; he has destroyed our palaces and caused our fortresses to become ruins. He has gotten rid of many people in Jerusalem, and caused us to mourn and weep [for those who were killed].
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.
He has caused his temple to be smashed [as easily] as [SIM] if it was a shelter in a garden. He has caused [us, his people], to forget all our sacred festivals and Sabbath days. He has caused [our] kings and priests to be rejected because he was extremely angry with them.
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.
Yahweh has rejected his own altar and abandoned his temple. He has allowed [our] enemies to tear down the walls of [our temple and] our palaces. They shout [victoriously] in the temple of Yahweh, like we [previously shouted] during our sacred festivals.
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.
Yahweh was determined to cause the walls of our city [MTY] to be torn down. [It was as though] he measured the walls and [then he completely] destroyed [MTY] them. [It was as though] he caused the towers and walls to lament/weep, [because they were now ruins].
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.
The city gates have collapsed; the bars that fastened the gates shut have been smashed. The king and his officials have [been forced to] go to other countries. No longer does anyone teach the people the laws [that God gave to Moses]. The prophets do not receive any visions [because] Yahweh does not give them any.
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.
The old men of Jerusalem [MTY] sit on the ground, and they say nothing. They wear rough sackcloth and throw dust on their heads [to show that they are sad]. The young girls of Jerusalem bow down [sorrowfully], their faces touching 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;
My eyes are very tired because of my tears; I am very grieved in my soul. Because [very many of] my people have been killed, I grieve and am exhausted. [Even] children and babies are fainting [and dying] in the streets [because they have no food].
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.
They cry out to their mothers, “We need [RHQ] something to eat and drink!” They faint like wounded men in the streets of the city. They slowly die in the arms 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?
You people of Jerusalem [MTY, DOU], (what can I/there is nothing that I can) say [to help you]. No people have [RHQ] suffered like you are suffering; I do not know what I can do to comfort you. The disaster [MET] that you have experienced is as great as the ocean is deep; there is no one [RHQ] who can restore your [city].
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.
The prophets among you claimed that they had seen visions [from Yahweh], but what they said was false and worthless. They did not save you from being (exiled/forced to go to other countries), because they did not proclaim that you had sinned. Instead, the messages that they gave you deceived you [because] they were not true.
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?“
All those who pass by you make fun of [IDM] you; they shake their heads and they hiss/sneer at you. [They say], “Is this that great city of Jerusalem? Is it the city that was the most beautiful city in the world, the city that caused all [the people on] the earth to be joyful?”
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.
[Now] all our enemies scoff [IDM] at you; they hiss/sneer [at you] and gnash their teeth [to show that they hate you]. They say, “We have destroyed them! This is what we longed/waited for, and now it has happened!”
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.
Yahweh has done what he planned; long ago he threatened to destroy you, and [now] he has done it. He has destroyed [your city] without acting mercifully [toward you]; he has enabled your enemies to he happy about defeating you; he has enabled your enemies to [continually] become stronger.
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.
I wish/desire that the walls of Jerusalem [APO] would cry out to Yahweh! You people of Jerusalem [MET], Cry day and night! Let your tears flow like rivers. Do not stop grieving; do not stop crying.
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.
Get up [every] night and cry out; tell Yahweh what you are feeling. Raise your arms to plead to him to act mercifully to prevent our children from dying; they are fainting on the street corners because they have no food to eat.
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?
Yahweh, look, and think [about it]! Have you ever [RHQ] caused people to suffer like this before? [It is certainly not right that] [RHQ] women are eating the flesh of their own children, the children whom they have always taken care of! [It is not right that] [RHQ] priests and prophets are being killed in your own temple!
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.
[The corpses of] people of all ages lie in the streets; [there are even corpses of] young men and young women who have been killed by [our enemies’] swords. Because you were very angry, you caused them to be killed; you have slaughtered them without pitying them [at all].
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.
You summoned our enemies to attack us from every direction, as though you were calling/inviting them to come to a feast. At that time when [you showed that] you were very angry, no one escaped. Our enemies murdered [our little children, ] ones whom we took care of and reared/brought up.
