< Malachi 2 >

1 And now, O you priests, this order is for you.
Un nu, jūs priesteri, šis bauslis jums ir dots:
2 If you will not give ear and take it to heart, to give glory to my name, says the Lord of armies, then I will send the curse on you and will put a curse on your blessing: truly, even now I have put a curse on it, because you do not take it to heart.
Ja jūs negribat klausīt, nedz ņemt pie sirds, Manam Vārdam dot godu, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, tad Es sūtīšu lāstu pret jums un nolādēšu jūsu svētību, tiešām, Es to nolādēšu, tāpēc ka jūs neņemat pie sirds.
3 See, I will have your arm cut off, and will put waste on your faces, even the waste from your feasts; and you will be taken away with it.
Redzi, Es jums maitāšu sēklu un kaisīšu sūdus uz jūsu vaigiem, jūsu svētku sūdus, tā ka jūs līdz ar tiem tapsiet izmēzti.
4 And you will be certain that I have sent this order to you, so that it might be my agreement with Levi, says the Lord of armies.
Tad jūs samanīsiet, ka Es šo bausli pie jums esmu sūtījis, ka tā būtu Mana derība ar Levi, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
5 My agreement with him was on my side life and peace, and I gave them to him; on his side fear, and he had fear of me and gave honour to my name.
Mana derība ar viņu bija dzīvība un miers, un to Es viņam devu, lai Mani bīstas, un viņš Mani bijās, un viņš drebēja priekš Mana Vārda.
6 True teaching was in his mouth, and no evil was seen on his lips: he was walking with me in peace and righteousness, turning numbers of people away from evil-doing.
Patiesības bauslība bija viņa mutē, un nelietība nebija atrodama uz viņa lūpām. Viņš ar Mani staigāja mierā un taisnībā un atgrieza daudz ļaudis no nozieguma.
7 For it is right for the priest's lips to keep knowledge, and for men to be waiting for the law from his mouth: for he is the servant sent from the Lord of armies.
Jo priestera lūpām būs sargāt atzīšanu, un no viņa mutes būs meklēt mācību, jo viņš ir Tā Kunga Cebaot vēstnesis.
8 But you are turned out of the way; you have made the law hard for numbers of people; you have made the agreement of Levi of no value, says the Lord of armies.
Bet jūs esat nogriezušies no ceļa, jūs esat darījuši, ka daudz pie bauslības piedauzījušies, jūs Levja derību esiet samaitājuši, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot.
9 And so I have taken away your honour and made you low before all the people, even as you have not kept my ways, and have given no thought to me in using the law.
Tad Es arīdzan jūs esmu darījis nievājamus un necienīgus priekš visiem ļaudīm, tāpēc ka jūs neturat Manus ceļus, bet bauslībā uzlūkojiet cilvēka vaigu.
10 Have we not all one father? has not one God made us? why are we, every one of us, acting falsely to his brother, putting shame on the agreement of our fathers?
Vai mums visiem nav viens tēvs? Vai viens Dievs mūs nav radījis? Kāpēc tad mēs cits citam neturam ticību, bet sagānam savu tēvu derību?
11 Judah has been acting falsely, and a disgusting thing has been done in Jerusalem; for Judah has made unclean the holy place of the Lord which is dear to him, and has taken as his wife the daughter of a strange god.
Jūda netur ticību, un iekš Israēla un Jeruzālemē notiek negantība. Jo Jūda sagānījis Tā Kunga svētumu, ko viņš mīļo, un precējis sveša dieva meitu.
12 The Lord will have the man who does this cut off root and branch out of the tents of Jacob, and him who makes an offering to the Lord of armies.
Tas Kungs lai izdeldē tam vīram, kas tā dara, no Jēkaba dzīvokļa tos, kas prasa un kas atbild, un tos, kas upurē Tam Kungam Cebaot.
13 And this again you do: covering the altar of the Lord with weeping and with grief, so that he gives no more thought to the offering, and does not take it with pleasure from your hand.
Otrkārt jūs šo dariet: jūs Tā Kunga altāri apklājat ar asarām, ar raudām un ar nopūtām, tā ka Viņš to upuri vairs nevar ieredzēt nedz labprāt saņemt no jūsu rokām.
14 But you say, For what reason? Because the Lord has been a witness between you and the wife of your early years, to whom you have been untrue, though she is your friend and the wife to whom you have given your word.
Tad jūs sakāt: Kāpēc tā? Tāpēc ka Tas Kungs ir liecinieks starp tevi un tavas jaunības sievu, kurai tu ticību neesi turējis, un viņa tomēr ir tava biedrene un tava saderētā sieva.
15 ... So give thought to your spirit, and let no one be false to the wife of his early years.
Tā neviens nav darījis, kam vēl gars atlicies. Bet ko tas viens darīja? Viņš meklēja dzimumu no Dieva. Tāpēc sargājaties savā garā, un neatstāji savas jaunības sievu.
16 For I am against the putting away of a wife, says the Lord, the God of Israel, and against him who is clothed with violent acts, says the Lord of armies: so give thought to your spirit and do not be false in your acts.
Jo Es ienīstu šķiršanu, saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs, un to, kas savas drēbes apgāna ar varas darbu, saka Tas Kungs Cebaot; tāpēc sargājaties savā garā, ka turat ticību.
17 You have made the Lord tired with your words. And still you say, How have we made him tired? By your saying, Everyone who does evil is good in the eyes of the Lord, and he has delight in them; or, Where is God the judge?
Jūs apkaitināt To Kungu ar savu valodu; bet jūs sakāt: ar ko mēs Viņu apkaitinājām? Ar to, ka jūs sakāt: kas ļaunu dara, tas ir labs priekš Tā Kunga acīm, un pie tādiem Viņam ir labs prāts, jeb: kur ir tas Dievs, kas soda?
