Jesajas 13
1 Spriedums par Bābeli, ko Jesaja, Amoca dēls, redzējis.
The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz saw:
2 Izceļat karogu augstā kalnā, paceļat balsi, metat ar roku, lai ieiet pa valdnieku vārtiem.
Set up a banner on the bare mountain. Lift up your voice to them. Wave your hand, that they may go into the gates of the nobles.
3 Es esmu pavēlējis Saviem svētītiem, arī Savus stipros aicinājis uz Savu dusmību, tos, kas priecājās par Manu godību.
I have commanded my consecrated ones; I have also called my mighty men to carry out my anger, my proudly exulting ones.
4 Ļaužu troksnis ir kalnos, kā no lielas tautas, trokšņa skaņa no sapulcinātu tautu valstīm. Tas Kungs Cebaot pārlūko karaspēku.
The noise of a multitude is in the mountains, as of a great people; the noise of an uproar of the kingdoms of the nations gathered together. YHWH of hosts is mustering the army for the battle.
5 Tie nāk no tālas zemes, no pasaules gala, Tas Kungs ar Savas dusmības rīkiem, postīt visu zemi.
They come from a far country, from the uttermost part of heaven, even YHWH, and the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land.
6 Kauciet, jo Tā Kunga diena ir tuvu, viņa nāk kā posts no tā Visuvarenā.
Wail; for the day of YHWH is at hand. It will come as destruction from Shaddai.
7 Tādēļ visas rokas būs nogurušas, un visu cilvēku sirdis izkusīs.
Therefore all hands will be feeble, and everyone's heart will melt.
8 Un tie iztrūcināsies, mokas un bēdas tos sagrābs, tiem būs sāpes, kā sievai, kas dzemdē; tie skatās kā stulbi cits uz citu, viņu vaigi deg kā liesmās.
They will be dismayed. Pangs and sorrows will seize them. They will be in pain like a woman in labor. They will look in amazement one at another. Their faces will be faces of flame.
9 Redzi, Tā Kunga diena nāk briesmīga, ar dusmām un ar karstu bardzību, un dara zemi par tuksnesi un izdeldē grēciniekus no viņas nost.
Look, the day of YHWH comes, cruel, with wrath and fierce anger; to make the land a desolation, and to destroy its sinners out of it.
10 Jo debess zvaigznes un viņas spīdumi nedos savu gaismu, saule uzlecot aptumšosies, un mēnesis neļaus spīdēt savam gaišumam.
For the stars of the sky and its constellations will not give their light. The sun will be darkened in its going forth, and the moon will not cause its light to shine.
11 Jo Es piemeklēšu bezdievību pie pasaules, un viņu netaisnību pie ļauniem, Es iznīcināšu lepniem lielību un nogāzīšu vareniem greznību,
I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity. I will cause the arrogance of the proud to cease, and will humble the haughtiness of the terrible.
12 Ka vīrs būs dārgāks nekā tīrs zelts, un cilvēks dārgāks nekā Ofira dārgumi.
I will make people more rare than fine gold, even a person than the pure gold of Ophir.
13 Tāpēc es darīšu debesi drebam, un zeme taps kustināta no savas vietas, caur Tā Kunga Cebaot bardzību un caur viņa karstās dusmības dienu.
Therefore I will make the heavens tremble, and the earth will be shaken out of its place in the wrath of YHWH of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.
14 Un tie būs kā izbiedināta stirna un kā avis, ko neviens nesapulcina; ikviens griezīsies pie savas tautas, un ikviens bēgs uz savu zemi.
It will happen that like a hunted gazelle, and like sheep that no one gathers, they will each turn to their own people, and will each flee to their own land.
15 Ikvienu, ko atradīs, nodurs, un ikviens, ko gūstīs, kritīs caur zobenu.
Everyone who is found will be thrust through. Everyone who is captured will fall by the sword.
16 Un viņu bērniņi taps satriekti priekš viņu acīm, viņu nami taps nopostīti, un viņu sievas piesmietas.
Their infants also will be dashed in pieces before their eyes. Their houses will be ransacked, and their wives raped.
17 Redzi, Es pamodināšu pret tiem Mēdiešus, kas sudrabu necienī un zelta nekāro
Look, I will stir up the Medes against them, who will not value silver, and as for gold, they will not delight in it.
18 Un tie nošaudīs jaunekļus ar stopiem un nežēlos bērnus mātes miesās, bērnus viņu acis nesaudzēs.
Their bows will dash the young men in pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb. Their eyes will not spare children.
19 Un Bābele, valstu glītums, Kaldeju skaistums un lepnums, būs tā kā Sodoma un Gomora, ko Dievs apgāzis.
Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldeans' pride, will be like when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.
20 Tur ne mūžam neviens vairs nedzīvos, tur neviens nemājos līdz radu radiem, Arābi tur neapmetīsies, gani tur neganīs.
It will never be inhabited, neither will it be lived in from generation to generation. The Arabian will not pitch a tent there, neither will shepherds make their flocks lie down there.
21 Bet tuksneša zvēri tur mitīs, un viņu namos mājos pūces pa pulkiem, un tur dzīvos strausi un jodi tur lēkās.
But wild animals of the desert will lie there, and their houses will be full of jackals. Ostriches will dwell there, and wild goats will frolic there.
22 Un vilki kauks cits pret citu viņas atstātos namos, un pūķi tanīs lepnās pilīs. Un viņas laiks jau tuvu nācis, un viņas dienas nekavēsies.
Wolves will cry in their fortresses, and jackals in the pleasant palaces. Her time is near to come, and her days will not be prolonged.
