< Jeremiah 21 >

1 The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, when King Zedekiah sent to him Pashhur, the son of Malchiah, and Zephaniah, the son of Maaseiah the priest, saying,
Šis ir tas vārds, kas notika uz Jeremiju no Tā Kunga, kad ķēniņš Cedeķija pie viņa sūtīja Pašhuru, Malhijas dēlu, un priesteri Cefaniju, Maāsejas dēlu, un sacīja:
2 Will you get directions from the Lord for us; for Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, is making war against us; it may be that the Lord will do something for us like all the wonders he has done, and make him go away from us.
Vaicā jel To Kungu par mums; jo Nebukadnecars, Bābeles ķēniņš, pret mums karo. Varbūt ka Tas Kungs ar mums darīs pēc saviem brīnumiem, ka šis no mums atstātos.
3 Then Jeremiah said to them, This is what you are to say to Zedekiah:
Tad Jeremija uz tiem sacīja: sakāt tā Cedeķijam:
4 The Lord God of Israel has said, See, I am turning back the instruments of war in your hands, with which you are fighting against the king of Babylon and the Chaldaeans, who are outside the walls and shutting you in; and I will get them together inside this town.
Tā saka Tas Kungs Israēla Dievs: redzi, Es griezīšu atpakaļ tos kara ieročus, kas ir jūsu rokās, ar ko jūs karojat pret Bābeles ķēniņu un pret Kaldejiem, kas pret jums ārpus mūriem apmetušies, un tos sapulcināšu šīs pilsētas vidū.
5 And I myself will be fighting against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, even with angry feeling and passion and in great wrath.
Un Es pats pret jums karošu ar izstieptu roku un ar stipru elkoni un ar bardzību un ar karstumu un lielām dusmām.
6 And I will send a great disease on the people living in this town, on man and on beast, causing their death.
Un Es kaušu šās pilsētas iedzīvotājus, gan cilvēkus, gan lopus; caur lielu mēri tiem būs mirt.
7 And after that, says the Lord, I will give up Zedekiah, king of Judah, and his servants and his people, even those in the town who have not come to their end from the disease and the sword and from need of food, into the hands of Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, and into the hands of their haters, and into the hands of those desiring their death: he will put them to the sword; he will not let anyone get away, he will have no pity or mercy.
Un pēc tam, saka Tas Kungs, Es nodošu Cedeķiju, Jūda ķēniņu, un viņa kalpus un tos ļaudis, kas šai pilsētā atlikuši no mēra, no zobena un no bada, Nebukadnecara, Bābeles ķēniņa, rokā un viņu ienaidnieku rokā un to rokā, kas viņu dzīvību meklē. Un viņš tos sitīs ar zobena asmeni, viņš tos nesaudzēs, netaupīs, nežēlos.
8 And to this people you are to say, The Lord has said, See, I put before you the way of life and the way of death.
Un uz šiem ļaudīm tev būs sacīt: tā saka Tas Kungs: redzi, Es jums lieku priekšā dzīvības ceļu un nāves ceļu.
9 He who keeps in this town will come to his death by the sword and through need of food and through disease; but he who goes out and gives himself up to the Chaldaeans who are shutting you in, will go on living, and will keep his life safe.
Kas šai pilsētā paliek, tie mirs caur zobenu, caur badu un caur mēri. Bet kas iziet un dodas pie tiem Kaldejiem, kas pret jums ir apmetušies, tas dzīvos un mantos savu dvēseli.
10 For my face is turned to this town for evil and not for good, says the Lord: it will be given into the hands of the king of Babylon, and he will have it burned with fire.
Jo Es Savu vaigu esmu griezis pret šo pilsētu par ļaunu un ne par labu, saka Tas Kungs; tā Bābeles ķēniņam taps rokā dota un viņš to sadedzinās ar uguni.
11 About the family of the king of Judah. Give ear to the word of the Lord;
Un par Jūda ķēniņa namu klausiet Tā Kunga vārdu:
12 O family of David, this is what the Lord has said: Do what is right in the morning, and make free from the hands of the cruel one him whose goods have been violently taken away, or my wrath will go out like fire, burning so that no one may put it out, because of the evil of your doings.
Ak Dāvida nams, tā saka Tas Kungs, nesiet ik rītu tiesu un izglābiet aplaupīto no spaidītāja rokas, ka Mana dusmība neizšaujās kā uguns un nedeg, ka neviens nevar dzēst, jūsu darbu ļaunuma dēļ.
13 See, I am against you, you who are living on the rock of the valley, says the Lord; you who say, Who will come down against us? or who will get into our houses?
Redzi, Es celšos pret tevi, kas dzīvo ielejā, tu klajuma klints, saka Tas Kungs, pret jums, kas teiciet: kas mums varētu uzbrukt vai nākt mūsu māju vietās?
14 I will send punishment on you in keeping with the fruit of your doings, says the Lord: and I will put a fire in her woodlands, burning up everything round about her.
Es jūs piemeklēšu pēc jūsu darbu augļiem, saka Tas Kungs, un Es iededzināšu viņas mežā uguni, tas aprīs visu viņas apkārtni.
