Jesajas 16
1 Sūtait jērus zemes valdītājam no Zelas pa tuksnesi uz Ciānas meitas kalnu.
Send the lambs for the ruler of the land from Sela to the wilderness, to the mountain of the daughter of Zion.
2 Jo kā putni no ligzdas izdzīti skraida, tā būs Moaba meitas pie Arnonas pārceļamām vietām.
For it will be that as wandering birds, as a scattered nest, so will the daughters of Moab be at the fords of the Arnon.
3 Dodiet padomu, nesiet tiesu, dariet pavēni pašā dienas vidū kā naktī; apslēp izdzītos, nedari bēdzēju zināmu!
Give counsel. Execute justice. Make your shade like the night in the midst of the noonday. Hide the outcasts. Do not betray the fugitive.
4 Lai mani izdzītie tavā starpā piemīt, Moab, esi tu viņiem par patvērumu no postītāja! Jo spaidītājam nāks gals, postīšana beigsies, saminēji no zemes taps izdeldēti.
Let the outcasts of Moab dwell with you; be a hiding place to them from the face of the destroyer. For the extortioner is at an end, destruction has ceased, oppressors have finished from the land.
5 Un goda krēsls ir stiprināts caur žēlastību, un uz tā sēž ar patiesību Dāvida dzīvoklī tas, kas tiesu spriež un tiesu kopj un prot taisnību.
A throne will be established in loving kindness. One will sit on it in truth, in the tent of David, judging, seeking justice, and swift to do righteousness.
6 Moaba lepnību esam dzirdējuši, ka tas ļoti lepns, viņa augstprātību un lepnību un viņa pārgalvību un viņa tukšo lielību.
We have heard of the pride of Moab, that he is very proud; even of his arrogance, his pride, and his wrath. His boastings are nothing.
7 Tādēļ Moabs kauks par Moabu, visi kopā kauks; par Ķirarezetes pamatiem jūs nopūtīsieties, tie pavisam salauzīti.
Ah, let not Moab wail; let everyone wail for Moab. You will mourn for the raisin cakes of Kir Hareseth, utterly stricken.
8 Jo Hešbonas druvas postītas, arī Sibmas vīna koks - tautu valdnieki saminuši viņa brangos stādus, tie sniedzās līdz Jaēzerai un stiepās pa tuksnesi, viņa zari izplētās un cēlās pār jūru.
For the fields of Heshbon languish with the vine of Sibmah. The lords of the nations have broken down its choice branches, which reached even to Jazer, which wandered into the wilderness. Its shoots were spread abroad. They passed over the sea.
9 Tāpēc es gauži raudu kā Jaēzera par Sibmas vīna koku; es tevi slacināju ar savām asarām, Hešbona un Eleale; jo pār taviem vasaras augļiem un pār tavu pļaušanu nākusi kara kliegšana.
Therefore I will weep with the weeping of Jazer for the vine of Sibmah. I will saturate you with my tears, Heshbon, and Elealeh: for on your summer fruits and on your harvest the battle shout has fallen.
10 Tā ka prieks un līksmība atņemti no dārziem, un vīna kalnos nedzied un negavilē. Vīna spiedējs vīna nemin vīna spaidā, prieka dziesmām esmu licis mitēties.
Gladness is taken away, and joy out of the fruitful field; and in the vineyards there will be no singing and there will be no jubilant shouting. Nobody will tread out wine in the presses. I have made the shouting stop.
11 Tāpēc manas iekšas trīc par Moabu kā kokle un mana sirds par Ķirarezeti.
Therefore my heart sounds like a harp for Moab, and my inward parts for Kir Heres.
12 Un notiks, kad Moabs rādīsies un nomocīsies elku kalnā un ies pielūgt savā svētā vietā, tad viņš nespēs nenieka.
It will happen that when Moab presents himself, when he wearies himself on the high place, and comes to his sanctuary to pray, that he will not prevail.
13 Šis ir tas vārds, ko Tas Kungs ir runājis pret Moabu sen laiku.
This is the word that YHWH spoke concerning Moab in time past.
14 Bet nu Tas Kungs runā un saka: pa trim gadiem, kādi ir algādža gadi, Moaba godība taps kaunā ar visu lielo ļaužu pulku, un kas atliek, to būs gauži maz, ne daudz.
But now YHWH has spoken, saying, "Within three years, as a worker bound by contract would count them, the glory of Moab shall be brought into contempt, with all his great multitude; and the remnant will be very small and feeble."
