Job 34
1 And Elius continued, and said,
Un Elihus atbildēja un sacīja:
2 Hear me, ye wise men; hearken, ye that have knowledge.
Klausāties, gudrie, manu valodu, un prātīgie, atgriežat ausis pie manis;
3 For the ear tries words, and the mouth tastes meat.
Jo auss pārbauda vārdus, tā kā mute bauda barību.
4 Let us choose judgment to ourselves: let us know amount ourselves what is right.
Lai pārspriežam savā starpā, lai kopā atzīstam, kas ir labi.
5 For Job has said, I am righteous: the Lord has removed my judgment.
Jo Ījabs saka: es esmu taisns, bet Dievs ir atņēmis manu tiesu.
6 And he has erred in my judgment: my wound is severe without unrighteousness [of mine].
Lai gan man taisnība, mani tura par melkuli, manas mokas ir nedziedinājamas, lai gan neesmu noziedzies.
7 What man is as Job, drinking scorning like water?
Kur ir gan cilvēks, kā Ījabs, kas zaimošanu dzer kā ūdeni,
8 [saying], I have not sinned, nor committed ungodliness, nor had fellowship with workers of iniquity, to go with the ungodly.
Un draudzējās ar ļaundarītājiem un staigā ar bezdievīgiem?
9 For thou shouldest not say, There shall be no visitation of a man, whereas [there is] a visitation on him from the Lord.
Jo viņš saka: cilvēkam nekā nepalīdz, ka tas mīļo Dievu.
10 Wherefore hear me, ye that are wise in heart: far be it from me to sin before the Lord, and to pervert righteousness before the almighty.
Tādēļ, gudrie vīri, klausāties mani. Nevar būt, ka Dievs ir ļauns un tas Visuvarenais netaisns.
11 Yea, he renders to a man accordingly as each of them does, and in a man's path he will find him.
Jo Viņš cilvēkam maksā pēc viņa darba, un ikkatram liek klāties pēc viņa gājuma.
12 And thinkest thou that the Lord will do wrong, or will the Almighty who made the earth wrest judgment?
Patiesi, Dievs nedara ļauna, un tas Visuvarenais nepārgroza tiesu!
13 And who is he that made [the whole world] under heaven, and all things therein?
Kam pasaule ir pavēlēta, ja ne Viņam, un kas ir radījis visu zemi?
14 For if he would confine, and restrain his spirit with himself;
Ja Viņš Savu sirdi grieztu uz Sevi pašu vien, un Savu garu un Savu dvašu ņemtu pie Sevis:
15 all flesh would die together, and every mortal would return to the earth, whence also he was formed.
Tad visa miesa kopā mirtu, un cilvēks taptu atkal par pīšļiem.
16 Take heed lest he rebuke [thee]: hear this, hearken to the voice of words.
Ja nu tev ir saprašana, klausi to, ņem vērā manas valodas balsi.
17 Behold then the one that hates iniquities, and that destroys the wicked, who is for ever just.
Vai jel, kas taisnību ienīst, varēs vadīt? Kā tad tev bija tiesāt to Vistaisnāko?
18 [He is] ungodly that says to a king, Thou art a transgressor, [that says] to princes, O most ungodly one.
Viņu, kas uz ķēniņu var sacīt: tu netikli, un uz valdnieku: tu blēdi;
19 [Such a one] as would not reverence the face of an honourable man, neither knows how to give honour to the great, so as that their persons should be respected.
Kas neuzlūko valdnieku vaigu un neieredz bagātus vairāk nekā nabagus, jo tie visi ir Viņa roku darbs.
20 But it shall turn out vanity to them, to cry and beseech a man; for they dealt unlawfully, the poor being turned aside [from their right].
Acumirklī tie nomirst, un nakts vidū tautas top iztrūcinātas un iet bojā, un varenie top aizrauti un ne caur cilvēka roku.
21 For he surveys the works of men, and nothing of what they do has escaped him.
Jo Viņa acis skatās uz cilvēka ceļiem, un Viņš redz visus viņa soļus.
22 Neither shall there be a place for the workers of iniquity to hide themselves.
Tumsas nav nedz nāves ēnas, kur ļaundarītāji varētu slēpties.
23 For he will not lay upon a man more [than right].
Viņam cilvēks ilgi nav jāmeklē, ka lai nāk uz tiesu Dieva priekšā.
24 For the Lord looks down upon all men, who comprehends unsearchable things, glorious also and excellent things without number.
Viņš satriec varenos bez izmeklēšanas un ieceļ citus viņu vietā.
25 Who discovers their works, and will bring night about [upon them], and they shall be brought low.
Tāpēc ka Viņš zina viņu darbus, Viņš tos apgāž naktī, ka tie top satriekti.
26 And he quite destroys the ungodly, for they are seen before him.
Viņš tos šausta kā bezdievīgus, tādā vietā, kur visi redz.
27 Because they turned aside from the law of God, and did not regard his ordinances,
Tāpēc ka tie no Viņa atkāpušies un nav apdomājuši visus Viņa ceļus.
28 so as to bring before him the cry of the needy; for he will hear the cry of the poor.
Ka nabaga brēkšanai bija jānāk pie Viņa, un bēdīgā kliegšanu Viņš paklausīja.
29 And he will give quiet, and who will condemn? and he will hide his face, and who shall see him? whether [it be done] against a nation, or against a man also:
Kad Viņš dod mieru, kas tad pazudinās? Kad Viņš Savu vaigu apslēpj, kas Viņu skatīs? Tā tas ir ar tautām, tā ar ikvienu cilvēku,
30 causing a hypocrite to be king, because of the waywardness of the people.
Lai nelieša cilvēks nevalda un tautai nav par valgiem.
31 For [there is] one that says to the Mighty One, I have received [blessings]; I will not take a pledge:
Jo uz Dievu jāsaka: man bija jācieš, es vairs negrēkošu.
32 I will see apart from myself: do thou shew me if I have done unrighteousness; I will not do [so] any more.
Ko es neredzu, to māci tu man; ja esmu darījis netaisnību, tad to vairs nedarīšu.
33 Will he take vengeance for it on thee, whereas thou wilt put [it] far [from thee]? for thou shalt choose, and not I; and what thou knowest, speak thou.
Vai Dievs lai atlīdzina pēc tava prāta? Jo tu neesi mierā! tad spriedi tu, ne es! Un ko tu taču māki sacīt!
34 Because the wise in heart shall say this, and a wise man listens to my word.
Prātīgi ļaudis man sacīs, un ikviens gudrs vīrs, kas uz mani klausījies:
35 But Job has not spoken with understanding, his words are not [uttered] with knowledge.
Ījabs runājis neprazdams, un viņa vārdi nav bijuši gudri.
36 Howbeit do thou learn, Job: no longer make answer as the foolish:
Kaut Ījabs taptu pārbaudīts līdz galam, ka viņš runā, kā bezdievīgi ļaudis.
37 that we add not to our sins: for iniquity will be reckoned against us, if [we] speak many words before the Lord.
Jo viņš krauj grēku uz grēku, viņš mūsu priekšā zaimo un runā daudz pret to stipro Dievu. -
