< Obadjas 1 >
1 Obadijas parādīšana. Tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs par Edomu. Mēs esam vēsti dzirdējuši no Tā Kunga, un vēstnesis ir sūtīts starp pagāniem: ceļaties! Tad celsimies pret viņu karā.
The vision of Obadiah. Thus saith the Lord GOD concerning Edom: We have heard tidings from the LORD, and an ambassador is sent among the nations, [saying], Arise ye, and let us rise up against her in battle.
2 Redzi, Es tevi esmu mazu darījis starp tiem pagāniem, tu esi ļoti nicināts.
Behold, I have made thee small among the nations: thou art greatly despised.
3 Tava sirds lielība tevi pievīlusi; tu dzīvo klints alās, savos augstos dzīvokļos, un saki savā sirdī: kas mani nometīs pie zemes?
The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, O thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground?
4 Jebšu tu celtos kā ērglis, un jebšu tu savu ligzdu taisītu starp zvaigznēm, taču Es tevi no turienes nometīšu, saka Tas Kungs.
Though thou mount on high as the eagle, and though thy nest be set among the stars, I will bring thee down from thence, saith the LORD.
5 Kad zagļi vai laupītāji pie tevis naktī būtu nākuši, (ak, kā tu esi izdeldēts!) vai tie nebūtu zaguši savu tiesu? Kad vīna lasītāji pie tevis būtu nākuši, vai tie kādas vīna stīgas nebūtu atlicinājuši?
If thieves came to thee, if robbers by night, (how art thou cut off!) would they not steal till they had enough? if grapegatherers came to thee, would they not leave some gleaning grapes?
6 Kā Ēsava (mantas) ir izmeklētas un viņa apslēptās lietas izvaicātas!
How are [the things of] Esau searched out! how are his hidden treasures sought up!
7 Visi tavi biedri tevi izdzen no savām robežām ārā, tavi draugi tevi pieviļ un pārvar; kas tavu maizi ēd, tie tevi ievaino. Saprašanas pie viņa nav.
All the men of thy confederacy have brought thee on thy way, even to the border: the men that were at peace with thee have deceived thee, and prevailed against thee; [they that eat] thy bread lay a snare under thee: there is none understanding in him.
8 Vai tas nenotiks tai dienā, saka Tas Kungs, ka Es iznīcināšu tos gudros no Edoma un saprašanu no Ēsava kalniem?
Shall I not in that day, saith the LORD, destroy the wise men out of Edom, and understanding out of the mount of Esau?
9 Tavi varenie, Tēman, baiļosies, lai ikviens no Ēsava kalniem top izdeldēts kaujā.
And thy mighty men, O Teman, shall be dismayed, to the end that every one may be cut off from the mount of Esau by slaughter.
10 Tā varas darba dēļ, ko tu savam brālim Jēkabam esi padarījis, kauns tevi apsegs, un tu tapsi izdeldēts mūžīgi.
For the violence done to thy brother Jacob shame shall cover thee, and thou shalt be cut off for ever.
11 Tai dienā, kad tu viņam stāvēji pretī, tai dienā, kad naidnieki viņa spēku aizveda cietumā un svešinieki iegāja pa viņa vārtiem un meslus meta par Jeruzālemi, tad tu arīdzan biji kā viens no tiem.
In the day that thou stoodest on the other side, in the day that strangers carried away his substance, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even thou wast as one of them.
12 Bet tev vairs ar prieku nebūs redzēt sava brāļa dienu, viņa nelaimes dienu, nedz līksmoties par Jūda bērniem viņu bēdu dienā, nedz lepoties ar savu muti bailības dienā.
But look not thou on the day of thy brother in the day of his disaster, and rejoice not over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction; neither speak proudly in the day of distress.
13 Neej pa Manu ļaužu vārtiem viņu nelaimes dienā, nedz skaties uz viņu ļaunumu viņu posta dienā, nedz izstiep (rokas) pēc viņu mantām viņu bēdu dienā.
Enter not into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity; yea, look not thou on their affliction in the day of their calamity, neither lay ye [hands] on their substance in the day of their calamity.
14 Nestāvi uz ceļa jūtīm, viņu bēgļus izdeldēt, nedz nodod viņu atlikušos bēdu dienā.
And stand thou not in the crossway, to cut off those of his that escape; and deliver not up those of his that remain in the day of distress.
15 Jo Tā Kunga diena ir klāt pār visiem pagāniem. Tā kā tu esi darījis, tāpat tev darīs, tavi darbi atgriezīsies uz tavu galvu.
For the day of the LORD is near upon all the nations: as thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee; thy dealing shall return upon thine own head.
16 Jo kā jūs esiet dzēruši (Manu dusmu kausu) uz Mana svētā kalna, tā visi pagāni dzers bez mitēšanās, it tiešām tie dzers un plītēs, un būs tā kā tie tur nebūtu bijuši.
For as ye have drunk upon my holy mountain, so shall all the nations drink continually, yea, they shall drink, and swallow down, and shall be as though they had not been.
17 Bet uz Ciānas kalna būs izglābšana, un tas būs par svētumu, un tie no Jēkaba nama iemantos savas tiesas.
But in mount Zion there shall be those that escape, and it shall be holy; and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.
18 Un Jēkaba nams būs uguns, un Jāzepa nams liesma, un Ēsava nams būs par rugājiem, un tie pret tiem iedegsies un tos aprīs, tā ka Ēsava namam neviens neatliks, jo Tas Kungs to ir runājis.
And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall burn among them, and devour them: and there shall not be any remaining to the house of Esau; for the LORD hath spoken it.
19 Un tie no dienas vidus iemantos Ēsava kalnus, un kas ielejā dzīvo, iemantos Fīlistus, un tie iemantos Efraīma lauku un Samarijas lauku, un Benjamins Gileādu.
And they of the South shall possess the mount of Esau; and they of the lowland the Philistines and they shall possess the field of Ephraim, and the field of Samaria: and Benjamin [shall possess] Gilead.
20 Un tie aizvestie no Israēla bērnu kara spēka iemantos to, kas Kanaāniešiem piederēja līdz Sareptai, un tie aizvestie no Jeruzālemes, kas ir Sefaradā, iemantos tās pilsētas pret dienvidiem.
And the captivity of this host of the children of Israel, which are [among] the Canaanites, [shall possess] even unto Zarephath; and the captivity of Jerusalem, which is in Sepharad, shall possess the cities of the South.
21 Un pestītāji celsies uz Ciānas kalna, tiesāt Ēsava kalnus, un valstība piederēs Tam Kungam.
And saviours shall come up on mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be the LORD’S.
