< Michas 4 >
1 Un notiks pastara laikā, tad Tā Kunga nama kalns stāvēs pāri pār visiem kalniem un būs paaugstināts pār pakalniem.
But it shall come to pass in the last days That the mountain of the house of Jehovah shall be established at the head of the mountains, And exalted above the hills; And the nations shall flow to it.
2 Un tautas tur plūdīs un daudz pagāni tur noies un sacīs: “Nāciet, ejam augšā uz Tā Kunga kalnu un uz Jēkaba Dieva namu, ka Viņš mums māca Savus ceļus, un mēs staigājam Viņa tekās”, jo no Ciānas izies mācība un Tā Kunga vārds no Jeruzālemes.
And many nations shall go, saying, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, To the house of the God of Jacob, That he may teach us his ways, And that we may walk in his paths!” For from Zion shall go forth a law, And the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.
3 Un Viņš tiesās lielas tautas un sodīs varenus pagānus it tālu, un tie pārkals savus zobenus par lemešiem un savus šķēpus par cirpēm (ecešām), tauta pret tautu nepacels zobenu un vairs nemācīsies karot,
He shall be a judge of many nations, And an umpire of many kingdoms afar off. They shall beat their swords into ploughshares, And their spears into pruning-hooks; Nation shall not lift up the sword against nation, Neither shall they learn war any more.
4 Bet tie sēdēs ikviens apakš sava vīna koka un apakš sava vīģes koka, un nebūs neviena, kas tos iztrūcinās, jo Tā Kunga Cebaot mute to runājusi.
But they shall sit every one under his vine, And under his fig-tree, And none shall make them afraid; The mouth of Jehovah of hosts hath spoken it.
5 Jo visas tautas staigā ikviena sava dieva vārdā, bet mēs staigāsim Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, vārdā mūžīgi mūžam.
Though all the nations walk every one in the name of its God, Yet will we walk in the name of Jehovah our God for ever and ever.
6 “Tai dienā,” saka Tas Kungs, “Es sapulcināšu, kas klibo, un salasīšu, kas aizdzīts, un ko Es biju mocījis,
In that day, saith Jehovah, I will gather the halting, And the far scattered I will assemble, And those whom I have afflicted.
7 Un Es darīšu, ka klibajam būs atlikums un ka aizdzītais paliks par varenu tautu, un Tas Kungs būs ķēniņš pār tiem Ciānas kalnā no šā laika un mūžīgi mūžam.
I will make the halting a remnant, And the far scattered a strong nation; And Jehovah shall reign over them in mount Zion, Henceforth, even forever.
8 Un tu ganības torni, Ciānas meitas stiprums, pie tevis nāks un tev tiks tā pirmā valdība, Jeruzālemes meitas valstība.”
And thou, O tower of the flock, O hill of the daughter of Zion, to thee it shall come, To thee shall come the former dominion, Even the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem.
9 Nu tad, kāpēc tu brēc ar tādu brēkšanu? Vai tev nav ķēniņa? Vai tavs padoma devējs gājis bojā, ka tevi sāpes sagrābušas, kā dzemdētāju?
And now why dost thou cry aloud? Is there no king within thee? Have thy counsellors perished, That pangs have taken hold of thee, as of a woman in travail?
10 Ciet jel un vaidi, Ciānas meita, kā dzemdētāja. Jo nu tu gan iziesi no pilsētas ārā un dzīvosi laukā un iesi uz Bābeli, bet tur tu tapsi izglābta, tur tevi Tas Kungs izpestīs no tavu ienaidnieku rokas.
Yea, writhe, and be in anguish, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail! For now shalt thou go forth from the city, and dwell in the field; Thou shalt go even to Babylon; Yet there shalt thou be delivered. Jehovah will redeem thee from the hand of thine enemies.
11 Nu gan daudz pagānu pret tevi sapulcināti un saka: lai viņa top sagānīta, lai mūsu acis (prieku) redz pie Ciānas.
Now many nations gather themselves against thee, Who say, Let her be polluted, And let our eyes gaze upon Zion!
12 Bet tie nezin Tā Kunga domas un nesaprot Viņa padomu, ka Viņš tos sakrājis kā kūlīšus piedarbā.
But they know not the thoughts of Jehovah, And understand not his purposes; For he gathereth them as sheaves into the thrashing-floor.
13 Celies un kul, Ciānas meita, jo Es tavu ragu darīšu par dzelzi un tavus nagus par varu, un tu sakulsi daudz tautas; tad es Tam Kungam nosvētīšu, ko viņi laupījuši, un viņu padomu visas pasaules Valdītājam.
Arise and thrash, O daughter of Zion! For I will make thy horns iron, And thy hoofs brass; Thou shalt beat in pieces many nations, And thou shalt devote their spoils to Jehovah, Their substance to the Lord of the whole earth.
