Isaiah 16
1 And they will send ... to the mountain of the daughter of Zion.
Sūtait jērus zemes valdītājam no Zelas pa tuksnesi uz Ciānas meitas kalnu.
2 For the daughters of Moab will be like wandering birds, like a place from which the young birds have gone in flight, at the ways across the Arnon.
Jo kā putni no ligzdas izdzīti skraida, tā būs Moaba meitas pie Arnonas pārceļamām vietām.
3 Give wise directions, make a decision; let your shade be as night in full day: keep safe those who are in flight; do not give up the wandering ones.
Dodiet padomu, nesiet tiesu, dariet pavēni pašā dienas vidū kā naktī; apslēp izdzītos, nedari bēdzēju zināmu!
4 Let those who have been forced out of Moab have a resting-place with you; be a cover to them from him who is making waste their land: till the cruel ones are cut off, and wasting has come to an end, and those who take pleasure in crushing the poor are gone from the land.
Lai mani izdzītie tavā starpā piemīt, Moab, esi tu viņiem par patvērumu no postītāja! Jo spaidītājam nāks gals, postīšana beigsies, saminēji no zemes taps izdeldēti.
5 Then a king's seat will be based on mercy, and one will be seated on it in the tent of David for ever; judging uprightly, and quick to do righteousness.
Un goda krēsls ir stiprināts caur žēlastību, un uz tā sēž ar patiesību Dāvida dzīvoklī tas, kas tiesu spriež un tiesu kopj un prot taisnību.
6 We have had word of the pride of Moab, how great it is; how he is lifted up in pride and passion: his high words about himself are false.
Moaba lepnību esam dzirdējuši, ka tas ļoti lepns, viņa augstprātību un lepnību un viņa pārgalvību un viņa tukšo lielību.
7 For this cause everyone in Moab will give cries of grief for Moab: crushed to the earth, they will be weeping for the men of Kir-hareseth.
Tādēļ Moabs kauks par Moabu, visi kopā kauks; par Ķirarezetes pamatiem jūs nopūtīsieties, tie pavisam salauzīti.
8 For the fields of Heshbon are waste, the vine of Sibmah is dead; the lords of nations were overcome by the produce of her vines; her vine-plants went as far as Jazer, and came even to the waste land; her branches were stretched out to the sea.
Jo Hešbonas druvas postītas, arī Sibmas vīna koks - tautu valdnieki saminuši viņa brangos stādus, tie sniedzās līdz Jaēzerai un stiepās pa tuksnesi, viņa zari izplētās un cēlās pār jūru.
9 For this cause my sorrow for the vine of Sibmah will be like the weeping for Jazer: my eyes are dropping water on you, O Heshbon and Elealeh! For they are sounding the war-cry over your summer fruits and the getting in of your grain;
Tāpēc es gauži raudu kā Jaēzera par Sibmas vīna koku; es tevi slacināju ar savām asarām, Hešbona un Eleale; jo pār taviem vasaras augļiem un pār tavu pļaušanu nākusi kara kliegšana.
10 And all joy is gone; no longer are they glad for the fertile field; and in the vine-gardens there are no songs or sounds of joy: the crushing of grapes has come to an end, and its glad cry has been stopped.
Tā ka prieks un līksmība atņemti no dārziem, un vīna kalnos nedzied un negavilē. Vīna spiedējs vīna nemin vīna spaidā, prieka dziesmām esmu licis mitēties.
11 For this cause the cords of my heart are sounding for Moab, and I am full of sorrow for Kir-heres.
Tāpēc manas iekšas trīc par Moabu kā kokle un mana sirds par Ķirarezeti.
12 And when Moab goes up to the high place, and makes prayer in the house of his god, it will have no effect.
Un notiks, kad Moabs rādīsies un nomocīsies elku kalnā un ies pielūgt savā svētā vietā, tad viņš nespēs nenieka.
13 This is the word which the Lord said about Moab in the past.
Šis ir tas vārds, ko Tas Kungs ir runājis pret Moabu sen laiku.
14 But now the Lord has said, In three years, the years of a servant working for payment, the glory of Moab, all that great people, will be turned to shame, and the rest of Moab will be very small and without honour.
Bet nu Tas Kungs runā un saka: pa trim gadiem, kādi ir algādža gadi, Moaba godība taps kaunā ar visu lielo ļaužu pulku, un kas atliek, to būs gauži maz, ne daudz.
