< Michas 5 >

1 Nu tad pulcējies, pulku meita; viņi pret mums apmetīsies. Tie ar rīksti sitīs Israēla soģi vaigā.
Yet now gather yourselves in troops, O people of troops! They lay siege against us; With a rod they smite the cheek of the judge of Israel.
2 Un tu Bētleme Efrata, jebšu tu esi maza starp tiem tūkstošiem no Jūda, no tevis Man izies (Tas), kas būs Valdnieks iekš Israēla, un kura iziešana ir no iesākuma, no mūžīgām dienām.
But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, Who art small to be among the thousands of Judah, Out of thee shall he come forth for me to be ruler in Israel, Whose origin is from the ancient age, from the days of old!
3 Tādēļ Viņš tos nodos līdz tam laikam, kur dzemdētāja dzemdēs. Tad viņa atlikušie brāļi atgriezīsies pie Israēla bērniem.
But He [[Jehovah]] shall deliver them up, Until she that bringeth forth hath brought forth; Then shall the residue of his brethren return to the children of Israel.
4 Un Viņš stāvēs un ganīs Tā Kunga spēkā, ar Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, vārda augstību. Un tie dzīvos, jo nu Viņš taps liels līdz pasaules galiem.
He shall stand and rule in the strength of Jehovah, In the majesty of Jehovah, his God; And they shall dwell in security, For he shall be great even to the ends of the earth.
5 Un šis būs miers. Kad Asurs nāks mūsu zemē un ieies mūsu pilīs, tad mēs pret to iecelsim septiņus ganus un astoņus cilvēku virsniekus.
And he shall be peace. When the Assyrian shall come into our land, To trample upon our palaces, Then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, And eight leaders of the people,
6 Tie noganīs Asura zemi ar zobenu un Nimroda zemi viņas vārtos. Tā Viņš mūs izglābs no Asura, kad tas nāks mūsu zemē, un kad ieies mūsu robežās.
And they shall devour the land of Assyria with the sword, The land of Nimrod within her gates. Thus shall he deliver us from the Assyrian, when he cometh into our land, And treadeth in our borders.
7 Un Jēkaba atlikums būs daudz tautu starpā kā rasa no Tā Kunga, kā lietus lāses uz zāles, kas negaida uz nevienu nedz cerē uz cilvēka bērnu.
The residue of Jacob shall be in the midst of many nations As the dew which cometh from Jehovah, As drops of rain upon the grass, Which tarrieth not for man, Nor waiteth for the sons of men.
8 Tiešām, Jēkaba atlikums būs pagānu starpā, daudz tautu vidū, kā lauva starp meža zvēriem, kā jauns lauva starp avju ganāmiem pulkiem, kas ielauzies samin un saplosa, un nav glābēja.
The residue of Jacob shall be among the nations, In the midst of many kingdoms, As a lion among the beasts of the forest, As a young lion among flocks of sheep, Who, when he assaulteth, treadeth down and teareth, and none can deliver.
9 Tava roka būs paaugstināta pār taviem pretiniekiem, un visi tavi ienaidnieki taps izdeldēti.
Thy hand shall be lifted up over thine adversaries, And all thine enemies shall be destroyed!
10 “Un notiks tai dienā”, saka Tas Kungs, “ka Es izdeldēšu tavus zirgus no tava vidus un iznīcināšu tavus ratus.
It shall come to pass in that day, saith Jehovah, That I will destroy thy horses from the midst of thee, And I will consume thy chariots;
11 Un Es izdeldēšu tavas zemes pilsētas un nolauzīšu visas tavas stiprās vietas.
I will destroy the fortified cities of thy land, And throw down all thy strongholds;
12 Un Es izdeldēšu buršanu no tavas rokas, ka zīlnieki pie tevis vairs nebūs.
I will destroy sorceries from thy borders, And soothsayers shall not be with thee.
13 Un Es izdeldēšu tavus dievekļus un tavus elkudievu stabus no tava vidus, un tu nemetīsies zemē priekš savu roku darba.
I will destroy thy graven images and thy statues from the midst of thee, And thou shalt no more bow down to the work of thine hands;
14 Es izraušu tavas ašeras no tava vidus un iznīcināšu tavas pilsētas.
I will root out thy Astartes from the midst of thee, And I will destroy thy fortified cities;
15 Un Es atriebšos ar dusmību un bardzību pie tiem pagāniem, kas neklausa.”
And I will execute vengeance in anger and in fury Upon the nations which have not hearkened to me.
