Michas 6
1 Klausāties jel, ko Tas Kungs saka: “Celies, tiesājies ar kalniem, un pakalni lai dzird tavu balsi.”
Listen to what the Lord is saying. Stand up and plead your case. Let the mountains and the hills hear your voice.
2 Klausāties, kalni, Tā Kunga tiesāšanos un jūs stiprie zemes pamati, jo Tam Kungam ir tiesas lieta ar Saviem ļaudīm, un Viņš grib tiesāties ar Israēli.
And now, mountains, hear the Lord's argument. Listen, everlasting foundations of the earth, for the Lord has a case against his people. He will bring charges against Israel.
3 “Ak Mana tauta, ko Es tev esmu darījis? Ar ko Es tevi esmu apgrūtinājis? Atbildi Man!
My people, what have I done to you? What is it that I have done to make you tired of me?
4 Gan Es tevi esmu izvedis no Ēģiptes zemes un tevi izpestījis no vergu nama un tavā priekšā sūtījis Mozu un Āronu un Mirjamu.
For I brought you out of the land of Egypt and rescued you from slavery. I sent Moses, Aaron, and Miriam to lead you.
5 Mana tauta, piemini jel, ko Balaks, Moaba ķēniņš, izdomāja, un ko Bileāms, Peora dēls, viņam atbildēja, no Sitimas līdz Gilgalai, lai tu atzīsti Tā Kunga taisnību.”
My people, remember what Balak, king of Moab, planned to do, and what Balaam, son of Beor, told him, and what happened from Shittim to Gilgal, so you could know all the good things the Lord does.
6 Ar ko es iešu pretī Tam Kungam? Kā zemošos tā augstā Dieva priekšā? Vai iešu Viņam pretī ar dedzināmiem upuriem, ar gada veciem teļiem.
What should I take with me when I approach the Lord, when I bow down before the God of heaven? Shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves a year old?
7 Vai Tam Kungam būtu labs prāts pie tūkstošiem auniem? Vai pie desmit tūkstošām eļļas upēm? Vai došu savu pirmdzimto par savu noziegumu, savas miesas augli par savas dvēseles grēkiem?
Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams, or ten thousand rivers of olive oil? Shall I sacrifice my firstborn child for my rebellion, my own flesh and blood for the sins I have committed?
8 Viņš tev, cilvēks, darījis zināmu, kas labs, un ko Tas Kungs no tevis prasa: tikai taisnību darīt, žēlastību mīlēt un pazemīgi staigāt sava Dieva priekšā.
The Lord has told you what is good, and what the Lord asks from you: to do what is right, to love kindness, and to walk in humility with your God.
9 Tā Kunga balss sauc pilsētai un gudrība ir Tavu Vārdu bīties: “Klausies to rīksti(zizli) un Kas to draud.
The voice of the Lord calls to the city—to respect your name is to be wise—pay attention to the rod and who summoned it.
10 Vai bezdievīga namā vēl paliek netaisnas mantas un tā sasodītā mazā ēfa?
Are there still ill-gotten gains in the houses of the wicked? Are they still using dishonest measures in selling grain?
11 Vai nenoziedzīgs būšu pie bezdievīga svara un pie maisa ar viltīgiem svara akmeņiem?
How can I accept those who use unfair scales and dishonest weights?
12 Viņas bagātie piepildās ar varas darbu, un viņas iedzīvotāji runā melus, un viņu mēle ir viltīga viņu mutē!
Your rich people make money by using violence; they tell lies and practice deceit.
13 Tādēļ arī Es tevi ievainošu, un tevi sitīšu un postīšu tavu grēku dēļ.
So I will strike you to make you ill; I will ruin you because of your sins.
14 Tu ēdīsi, bet nepieēdīsies, un tavs vēders būs tukšs; un ko tu nesīsi, to tu neaiznesīsi, un ko tu aiznesīsi, to es nodošu zobenam.
You will eat, but never be satisfied; inside you will still feel hungry. Even though you try to save money, what you save won't be worth anything because I will give it to the sword.
15 Tu sēsi, bet nepļausi, tu mīsi eļļas ogas, bet ar eļļu nesvaidīsies, un jaunu vīnu(darināsi), bet vīna nedzersi.
You will sow, but you won't reap; you will press your olives, but not use the oil; you will make your wine, but drink none of it.
16 Jo tur cienī Omrus ieradumu un visus Ahaba nama darbus, un jūs staigājat viņu padomos. Tādēļ Es tevi nodošu par postu un viņas iedzīvotājus par apsmieklu, un jūs nesīsiet Manu ļaužu negodu.”
You have kept the laws of Omri, and adopted all the practices of the house of Ahab, you have followed their ways. So I will make your country desolate and the people who live there an object of scorn; you will bear the shame of my people.
