Joel 2
1 Blow all of you the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD comes, for it is nigh at hand;
Bazūnējiet ar bazūni Ciānā, un lai skan stipri Manā svētā kalnā; lai visi zemes iedzīvotāji dreb, jo Tā Kunga diena nāk, jo tā ir tuvu:
2 A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there has not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations.
Melna un tumša diena, apmākusies un miglaina diena. Kā rīta blāzma izplešas pār kalniem, tā liela un varena tauta, kāda nemūžam nav bijusi un pēc vairs nemūžam nebūs uz radu radiem.
3 A fire devours before them; and behind them a flame burns: the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them.
Viņas priekšā rij uguns, un viņai nopakaļ deg liesma; zeme viņas priekšā ir kā Ēdenes dārzs, bet aiz viņas tukša posta vieta; neviens no tās nevar izbēgt.
4 The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run.
Viņu ģīmis ir kā zirgu ģīmis, un kā jātnieki, tāpat viņi skrien.
5 Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devours the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array.
Tie atlec pa kalnu virsgaliem, kā rati rīb, kā uguns liesma sprēgā, kas rugājus aprij, kā varena tauta, kas apbruņota uz karu.
6 Before their face the people shall be much pained: all faces shall gather blackness.
Viņu ieraudzīdami, ļaudis iztrūcinājās, visu vaigu sārtums nobāl.
7 They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like men of war; and they shall march every one on his ways, and they shall not break their ranks:
Tie skrien kā varoņi, kā kara vīri tie uzkāpj uz mūriem; un tie ikviens iet pa savu ceļu un neatkāpjās no savas tekas.
8 Neither shall one thrust another; they shall walk every one in his path: and when they fall upon the sword, they shall not be wounded.
Tie nespiež viens otru, ikviens staigā savā kārtā, un jebšu krīt kara ieročos, tomēr tie netop aizturēti.
9 They shall run back and forth in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief.
Tie staigā pa pilsētu, tie skrien pa mūriem, tie iekāpj namos, tie nāk caur logiem iekšā kā zaglis.
10 The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:
Viņas priekšā dreb zeme, debess trīc, saule un mēnesis aptumšojās, un zvaigznes ierauj savu spožumu.
11 And the LORD shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executes his word: for the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?
Un Tas Kungs paceļ Savu balsi Sava karaspēka priekšā, jo Viņa lēģeris ir varen liels, jo varens ir Viņa vārda izdarītājs, jo Tā Kunga diena ir liela un ļoti briesmīga, - kas to var panest?
12 Therefore also now, says the LORD, turn all of you even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning:
Bet arī tagad Tas Kungs saka: atgriežaties pie Manis ar visu savu sirdi, un ar gavēšanu un ar raudāšanu un ar nožēlošanu.
13 And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repents him of the evil.
Un saplēšat savas sirdis un ne savas drēbes, un atgriežaties pie Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, jo viņš ir laipnīgs un sirdsžēlīgs, lēnprātīgs un no lielas žēlastības, un viņam ir žēl par to postu.
14 Who knows if he will return and repent, and leave a blessing behind him; even a food offering and a drink offering unto the LORD your God?
Kas zin, varbūt ka Viņš atgriezīsies, un Viņam būs žēl, un atstās svētību aiz Sevis, ēdamu upuri un dzeramu upuri priekš Tā Kunga, jūsu Dieva!
15 Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly:
Bazūnējiet ar bazūni Ciānā, svētījiet gavēni, izsauciet sapulces dienu.
16 Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go out of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet.
Sapulcinājiet ļaudis, svētījiet draudzi, sapulcinājiet vecajus, sasauciet bērniņus un zīdāmos pie krūtīm. Lai brūtgāns iet no sava kambara un brūte no savas vietas.
17 Let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare your people, O LORD, and give not your heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them: wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God?
Starp priekšnamu un altāri lai raud priesteri, Tā Kunga sulaiņi, un lai saka: ak Kungs, žēlo Savus ļaudis un nenodod Savu mantību par nievāšanu, ka pagāni tos neapsmej! Kādēļ starp tautām būs sacīt: kur viņu Dievs?
18 Then will the LORD be jealous for his land, and pity his people.
Tad Tas Kungs iekarsa Savas zemes pēc un saudzēja Savus ļaudis.
19 Yea, the LORD will answer and say unto his people, Behold, I will send you corn, and wine, and oil, and all of you shall be satisfied therewith: and I will no more make you a reproach among the heathen:
Un Tas Kungs atbildēja un sacīja uz Saviem ļaudīm: redzi, Es jums sūtīšu labību un vīnu un eļļu, ka jūs ar to topat pieēdināti, un Es jūs vairs nenodošu par nievāšanu starp pagāniem.
20 But I will remove far off from you the northern army, and will drive him into a land barren and desolate, with his face toward the east sea, and his hinder part toward the utmost sea, and his stink shall come up, and his ill savour shall come up, because he has done great things.
Un Es atstādināšu tālu no jums to ziemeļnieku un to aizdzīšu sakaltušā un tukšā zemē, viņa priekšējus(pulkus) rīta jūrā un viņa pakaļējus(pulkus) vakara jūrā. Un viņa smarža kāps uz augšu, un viņa smirdums uzcelsies, jo viņš lielījās savos darbos.
21 Fear not, O land; be glad and rejoice: for the LORD will do great things.
Nebīsties, zeme! Priecājies un esi līksma, jo Tas Kungs dara lielas lietas.
22 Be not afraid, all of you beasts of the field: for the pastures of the wilderness do spring, for the tree bears her fruit, the fig tree and the vine do yield their strength.
Nebīstaties, zvēri laukā! Jo ganības tuksnesī atkal nesīs jaunu zāli, jo koki nesīs savus augļus, vīna koks un vīģes koks izdos savu spēku.
23 Be glad then, all of you children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God: for he has given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month.
Un Ciānas bērni, priecājaties un līksmojaties iekš Tā Kunga, sava Dieva! Jo Viņš jums dos taisnības mācītāju un jums sūtīs lietu, agro lietu un vēlo lietu kā papriekš.
24 And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the vats shall overflow with wine and oil.
Un kloni būs pilni labības, un spaidi pārtecēs no vīna un eļļas.
25 And I will restore to you the years that the locust has eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpillar, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.
Tā Es jums atmaksāšu tos gadus, ko siseņi, vaboles un kukaiņi un kāpuri ir noēduši, Mans lielais karaspēks, ko Es jums biju sūtījis.
26 And all of you shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, that has dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed.
Un jūs ēdin ēdīsiet un pieēdīsities un slavēsiet Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, vārdu, kas brīnišķi jums ir darījis, un Mani ļaudis netaps kaunā ne mūžam.
27 And all of you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the LORD your God, and none else: and my people shall never be ashamed.
Un jūs manīsiet, ka Es esmu Israēla vidū, un ka Es esmu Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, un cits neviens, un Mani ļaudis netaps kaunā ne mūžam.
28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:
Pēc tam tas notiks, ka Es Savu Garu izliešu pār visu miesu, un jūsu dēli un jūsu meitas sludinās praviešu mācību, jūsu vecaji sapņos sapņus, jūsu jaunekļi redzēs parādīšanas.
29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.
Arī pār kalpiem un pār kalponēm Es izliešu Savu Garu tanīs dienās.
30 And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.
Un Es darīšu brīnumus debesīs un zemes virsū, asinis un uguni un dūmu tvaiku.
31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the LORD come.
Saule taps pārvērsta par tumsību un mēnesis par asinīm, pirms nekā nāks Tā Kunga lielā un bijājamā diena.
32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD has said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.
Un notiks, ka ikviens, kas Tā Kunga vārdu piesauks, taps izglābts. Jo Ciānas kalnā un Jeruzālemē būs glābšana, kā Tas Kungs ir runājis, un pie tiem atlikušiem būs tie, ko Tas Kungs aicinās.
