Cakarijas 8
1 Un Tā Kunga Cebaot vārds notika un sacīja:
Yahweh gave me [another] message. He said,
2 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: Es biju iekarsis par Ciānu ar lielu karstumu, pat ar lielu bardzību Es par to biju iekarsis.
“This is what [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, say: ‘I love [the people of] Jerusalem; I love them very much, and I am very angry with their enemies.’
3 Tā saka Tas Kungs: Es griežos atpakaļ uz Ciānu un dzīvošu Jeruzālemes vidū, un Jeruzālemi sauks par patiesības pilsētu un Tā Kunga Cebaot kalnu par svētu kalnu.
So this is what I say: ‘[Some day] I will return to Zion [Hill] and I will live there. [At that time, ] Jerusalem will be called the city [where people] (are faithful to/faithfully obey) me, and [people will say that Zion] Hill [is] holy because it is where the Commander of the armies of angels dwells.’”
4 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: tur sēdēs vēl sirmi vīri un sirmas sievas Jeruzālemes ielās; ikvienam savs spieķis būs savā rokā aiz liela vecuma.
The Commander of the armies of angels also says this: “[Some day] old men and old women will again sit along the streets of Jerusalem, each of them holding a cane because of their being very old.
5 Un pilsētas ielas būs pilnas ar puisēniem un meitenēm, kas pa viņas ielām spēlējās.
And the city streets with be full of boys and girls playing.”
6 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: Kad tas būs brīnums šo atlikušo ļaužu acīs tanīs dienās, vai tas arī būs brīnums Manās acīs? saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
The Commander of the armies of angels [also] says this: “[When those things happen, ] it will seem marvelous to the people who are still alive, but it certainly will not [RHQ] seem marvelous to me!”
7 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: Redzi, Es atpestīšu Savus ļaudis no austruma zemes un no saules rieta zemes.
The Commander of the armies of angels [also] says this: “I will rescue my people from countries to the northeast and to the southwest [to which they were forced to go].
8 Un Es tos atvedīšu, ka tiem būs dzīvot Jeruzālemes vidū. Un tie Man būs par ļaudīm, un Es tiem būšu par Dievu patiesībā un taisnībā.
I will bring them back [to Judah], and they will [again] live in Jerusalem. They will be my people, and I will be their God. I will be faithful [to them] and act righteously [toward them].”
9 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: Lai jūsu rokas paliek stipras, kas šos vārdus esat dzirdējuši šinīs dienās no praviešu mutes, kas bija tai dienā, kad sāka celt Tā Kunga Cebaot dzīvokli, taisīt Dieva namu.
The Commander of the armies of angels [also] says this: “When the foundation for my temple was laid, there were prophets there who proclaimed messages [from me]. Some of you heard what those prophets said. [So] be brave/courageous [MTY] [while you are building] the temple, in order that you may [finish] building it.
10 Jo priekš šīm dienām cilvēkiem alga netika un lopiem algas nebija, un tiem, kas izgāja un iegāja, nebija miera no ienaidnieka, jo Es palaidu visus cilvēkus citu pret citu.
Before [you started to rebuild the temple], [no one could hire] men or animals [to work for them, because] there was no money to pay for them. And people were afraid to go anywhere because I had caused people to oppose each other, and [they thought that] there were enemies [everywhere].
11 Bet nu Es pret šiem atlikušiem ļaudīm neturēšos kā viņā laika, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
But now I will act differently toward [you] people who are still alive, [differently] than I did previously. [That is what I], the Commander of the armies of angels, say.
12 Bet sēkla labi izdosies, vīna koks dos savas ogas, un zeme izdos savus augļus, un debesis dos savu rasu, un šiem atlikušiem ļaudīm Es došu visu šo iemantot.
[From now on, ] it will be peaceful when you plant [your seeds], and your grapevines will produce grapes, and good crops will grow in your fields. There will be rain. I will give all those things to [you] people who are still alive.
13 Un notiks, tā kā jūs, Jūda nams un Israēla nams, esiet bijuši lāsts tautu vidū, tāpat Es jūs izglābšu, ka būsiet svētība; nebīstaties, un lai jūsu rokas paliek stipras.
You [people of] Judah and Israel, [the people of other] nations have cursed you. But I will rescue you, and you will be a blessing [to the people of many nations. So] do not be afraid; work hard [MTY] [to finish building the temple].”
14 Jo tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: tā kā Es esmu domājis, jums ļaunu darīt, kad jūsu tēvi Mani apkaitināja, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, un tas Man nebija žēl,
The Commander of the armies of angels [also] says this: “When your ancestors caused me to become very angry, I decided to punish them. And I did not change my mind.
15 Tāpat Es atkal šinīs dienās domāju labu darīt Jeruzālemei un Jūda namam, - nebīstaties!
But now [I will do something different]. I am planning to do good things to [the people of] Jerusalem and [other towns in] Judah. [So] do not be afraid.
16 Šās ir tās lietas, ko jums būs darīt: runājiet patiesi ikviens ar savu tuvāku, tiesājiet taisni, un nesiet tiesu, lai miers valda jūsu vārtos.
These are the things that you should do: [You should always] tell the truth to each other. In the courts, [your judges must] make decisions according to what is correct and fair.
17 Un nedomājiet ļaunu cits pret citu savā sirdī un lai jums ir nemīlama nepatiesa zvērēšana, jo visu šo es ienīstu, saka Tas Kungs.
Do not plan to do evil things to others, and do not falsely promise [to do things that you know that you will not do]. I hate all those things.”
18 Atkal Tā Kunga Cebaot vārds uz mani notika sacīdams:
The Commander of the armies of angels spoke to me [again].
19 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: tā gavēšana ceturtā un piektā un septītā un desmitā mēnesī Jūda namam būs par prieku un par līksmību un par jaukiem svētkiem; bet mīļojiet patiesību un mieru.
This is what he said: “The times when you people of Judah (fast/abstain from food) during the fourth, fifth, seventh, and tenth months [of each year] will become good and very happy/joyful [DOU] festivals. But you must want [to speak] truthfully and [be] peaceful.”
20 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: vēl nāks tautas un daudz pilsētu iedzīvotāji.
The Commander of the armies of angels [also] says this: “[Some day] people from many [people-groups and foreign] cities will come [here to Jerusalem].
21 Un vienas pilsētas iedzīvotāji ies pie otras iedzīvotājiem un sacīs: ejam pielūgt To Kungu un meklēt To Kungu Cebaot, - arī es iešu.
People from one city will go to [the people in] another [city] and say, ‘Let’s [go together to Jerusalem] to worship Yahweh and ask him to bless us; we [ourselves] are going.’
22 Tā nāks daudz ļaužu, un varenas tautas meklēs To Kungu Cebaot Jeruzālemē un pielūgs To Kungu.
And [people from] many people-groups and [from] powerful nations will come to Jerusalem to worship Yahweh and ask him to bless them.”
23 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: tanīs dienās notiks, ka desmit vīri no visādām pagānu valodām satvers viena Jūda vīra (drēbju) stūri un sacīs: mēs iesim jums līdz, jo mēs esam dzirdējuši, ka Dievs ir ar jums.
The Commander of the armies of angels [also] says this: “At that time, [this is what will happen everywhere]: A group of people from one nation or a group of people who speak another language will grab the fringe/edge of the robe of a Jew and say [to him], ‘We have heard [people say] that God is with you. So allow us to go with you [to Jerusalem to worship him].’”
