< Michas 6 >

1 Klausāties jel, ko Tas Kungs saka: “Celies, tiesājies ar kalniem, un pakalni lai dzird tavu balsi.”
Hear, I pray you, what, Yahweh, is saying, —arise thou, maintain thy controversy before the mountains, and let the hills hear thy 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.
Hear, ye mountains, the controversy of Yahweh, and ye lasting rocks, the foundations of the earth, —for, a controversy, hath Yahweh, with his people, and, with Israel, will he dispute.
3 “Ak Mana tauta, ko Es tev esmu darījis? Ar ko Es tevi esmu apgrūtinājis? Atbildi Man!
O my people! what have I done to thee? and wherein have I wearied thee? Testify thou against 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 thee up out of the land of Egypt, and, out of the house of slaves, I ransomed thee, —and I sent before thee, Moses, Aaron and Miriam.
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.”
O my people! remember, I pray you, what Balak king of Moab, counseled, and what Balaam son of Beor, answered him, —from the Acacias as far as Gilgal, that ye may know the righteousness of Yahweh.
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.
Wherewith, shall I come before Yahweh? bow myself to God on high? Shall I come before him with ascending-sacrifice? with calves of 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 Yahweh, be pleased, with thousands of rams? with myriads of torrents of oil? Shall I give my firstborn for my transgression? the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
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.
He hath told thee, O son of earth, what is good, —what then is, Yahweh, seeking of thee, but, to do justice, to delight in lovingkindness, and humbly to walk with thy God?
9 Tā Kunga balss sauc pilsētai un gudrība ir Tavu Vārdu bīties: “Klausies to rīksti(zizli) un Kas to draud.
The voice of Yahweh, to the city, crieth out, With safety for him who regardeth his name, —Hear ye the rod, and who hath appointed it.
10 Vai bezdievīga namā vēl paliek netaisnas mantas un tā sasodītā mazā ēfa?
Even yet, are there, in the house of the lawless one, the treasures of lawlessness, —and the scant measure—accurst?
11 Vai nenoziedzīgs būšu pie bezdievīga svara un pie maisa ar viltīgiem svara akmeņiem?
Shall I be pure with lawless balances? or with bag of deceitful weights?
12 Viņas bagātie piepildās ar varas darbu, un viņas iedzīvotāji runā melus, un viņu mēle ir viltīga viņu mutē!
For, her rich men, are full of violence, and, her inhabitants, have spoken falsehood, —and, their tongue, is deceitful in their mouth.
13 Tādēļ arī Es tevi ievainošu, un tevi sitīšu un postīšu tavu grēku dēļ.
Moreover also, I, have made thee sick with smiting thee, —laying thee waste because of thy 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.
Thou, shalt eat—and not be satisfied, but be shrunk with hunger within thee, —Though thou remove, yet shalt thou not set in safety, and, what thou dost set in safety, to the sword, will I deliver.
15 Tu sēsi, bet nepļausi, tu mīsi eļļas ogas, bet ar eļļu nesvaidīsies, un jaunu vīnu(darināsi), bet vīna nedzersi.
Thou, shalt sow, but shalt not reap, —thou, shalt tread the olive, but shalt not anoint thee with oil, also the grape, but shalt not drink the wine.
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.”
For strictly observed are the statutes of Omri, and every doing of the house of Ahab, and ye have walked in their counsels, —to the end I may give thee up to desolation, and her inhabitants to hissing, that, the reproach of peoples, ye may bear.
