Jeremijas 29
1 Un šie ir tās grāmatas vārdi, ko pravietis Jeremija sūtīja no Jeruzālemes tiem atlikušiem vecajiem, kas bija aizvesti, un tiem priesteriem un tiem praviešiem un visiem ļaudīm, ko Nebukadnecars no Jeruzālemes bija aizvedis uz Bābeli,
Now these are the words of the letter that Jeremiah the prophet sent from Jerusalem to the residue of the elders of the captivity, and to the priests, to the prophets, and to all the people, whom Nebuchadnezzar had carried away captive from Jerusalem to Babylon,
2 Kad ķēniņš Jekanija un ķēniņiene un ķēniņa sulaiņi un Jūda un Jeruzālemes lielkungi līdz ar tiem amatniekiem un kalējiem no Jeruzālemes bija projām, -
(after that Jeconiah the king, the queen mother, the eunuchs, the officials of Judah and Jerusalem, the craftsmen, and the metal workers, had departed from Jerusalem),
3 Caur Eleazu, Safana dēlu, un Gemariju, Hilķijas dēlu, ko Cedeķija, Jūda ķēniņš, uz Bābeli sūtīja pie Nebukadnecara, Bābeles ķēniņa:
by the hand of Elasah the son of Shaphan, and Gemariah the son of Hilkiah, (whom Zedekiah king of Judah sent to Babylon to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon), saying,
4 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs, uz visiem aizvestiem, kas no Jeruzālemes aizvesti uz Bābeli:
"Thus says Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, to all the captivity, whom I have caused to be carried away captive from Jerusalem to Babylon:
5 Uztaisiet namus un dzīvojiet iekš tiem un dēstiet dārzus un ēdiet no viņu augļiem.
'Build houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat their fruit.
6 Ņemiet sievas un dzemdinājiet dēlus un meitas un vediet saviem dēliem sievas un dodiet savas meitas vīriem, lai tās dzemdē dēlus un meitas, un vairojaties tur un neejat mazumā,
Take wives, and father sons and daughters; and take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, that they may bear sons and daughters; and multiply there, and do not be diminished.
7 Un meklējiet tās pilsētas labklāšanos, kurp Es jūs esmu licis aizvest, un pielūdziet To Kungu viņas dēļ, jo kad viņai labi klāsies, tad arī jums labi klāsies.
Seek the peace of the city where I have caused you to be carried away captive, and pray to Jehovah for it; for in its peace you shall have peace.'
8 Jo tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs: lai jūsu pravieši un jūsu zīlnieki, kas jūsu vidū, jūs nepieviļ, un neklausiet saviem sapņiem, ko jūs sapņojat.
For thus says Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: 'Do not let your prophets who are in the midst of you, and your diviners, deceive you; neither listen to your dreams which you cause to be dreamed.
9 Jo tie jums sludina melus Manā Vārdā; Es tos neesmu sūtījis, saka Tas Kungs.
For they prophesy falsely to you in my name: I have not sent them,' says Jehovah.
10 Jo tā saka Tas Kungs: tiešām, kad septiņdesmit gadi Bābelē būs pagalam, tad Es jūs piemeklēšu un jums likšu notikt pēc Sava žēlīgā vārda un jūs atvedīšu atpakaļ uz šo vietu.
"For thus says Jehovah, 'After seventy years are accomplished for Babylon, I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place.
11 Jo Es zinu, kādas domas Es par jums domāju, saka Tas Kungs: miera domas un ne ļaunas domas, ka Es jums dodu to cerēto galu.
For I know the plans that I have for you,' says Jehovah, 'plans for your welfare, and not for calamity, to give you hope and a future.
12 Tad jūs Mani piesauksiet un iesiet un Mani pielūgsiet, un Es jūs paklausīšu.
You shall call on me, and you shall go and pray to me, and I will listen to you.
13 Un jūs meklēsiet un Mani atradīsiet, kad jūs pēc Manis vaicāsiet no visas savas sirds.
You shall seek me, and find me, when you shall search for me with all your heart.
14 Un Es no jums likšos atrasties, saka Tas Kungs, un atgriezīšu (atpakaļ no) jūsu cietuma un jūs sapulcināšu no visām tautām un no visām vietām, kurp Es jūs esmu aizdzinis, saka Tas Kungs, un jūs vedīšu atkal uz to vietu, no kurienes Es jūs esmu licis aizvest.
I will be found by you,' says Jehovah, 'and I will turn again your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places where I have driven you,' says Jehovah; 'and I will bring you again to the place from where I caused you to be carried away captive.'
15 Kad jūs sakāt: Tas Kungs mums Bābelē praviešus cēlis -
"Because you have said, 'Jehovah has raised us up prophets in Babylon';
16 Tiešām, tā saka Tas Kungs, par to ķēniņu, kas sēž uz Dāvida goda krēsla, un par visiem ļaudīm, kas šai pilsētā dzīvo, par jūsu brāļiem, kas ar jums nav gājuši cietumā,
thus says Jehovah concerning the king who sits on the throne of David, and concerning all the people who dwell in this city, your brothers who haven't gone forth with you into captivity;
17 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: redzi, Es sūtīšu starp viņiem zobenu, badu un mēri, un darīšu tos kā nelāga vīģes, ko nevar ēst aiz nelāguma.
thus says Jehovah of hosts; 'Look, I will send on them the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, and will make them like vile figs, that can't be eaten, they are so bad.
18 Un Es tiem dzīšos pakaļ ar zobenu, ar badu un ar mēri, un tos nodošu uz vārdzināšanu visās zemes valstīs, par lāstu, par biedēkli un par apsmieklu un par negodu starp visām tautām, kurp Es tos aizdzīšu:
I will pursue after them with the sword, with the famine, and with the pestilence, and will deliver them to be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the earth, to be an object of horror, and an astonishment, and a hissing, and a reproach, among all the nations where I have driven them;
19 Par to, ka tie Maniem vārdiem nav klausījuši, saka Tas Kungs, kad Es Savus kalpus, tos praviešus, pie tiem tikuši(neatlaidīgi) sūtīju vienā sūtīšanā; bet jūs neesat klausījuši, saka Tas Kungs.
because they have not listened to my words,' says Jehovah, 'with which I sent to them my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them; but you would not hear,' says Jehovah.
20 Tad klausiet Tā Kunga vārdu, jūs visi, kas esat aizvesti, ko Es no Jeruzālemes uz Bābeli esmu nosūtījis.
'Hear therefore the word of Jehovah, all you of the captivity, whom I have sent away from Jerusalem to Babylon.'
21 Tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs, pret Ahabu, Kolajas dēlu, un pret Cedeķiju, Mazejas dēlu, kas jums melus sludina Manā Vārdā! Redzi, Es tos nodošu Nebukadnecaram, Bābeles ķēniņam, rokā, tas tos sitīs priekš jūsu acīm;
"Thus says Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, concerning Ahiab the son of Kolaiah, and concerning Zedekiah the son of Maaseiah, who prophesy a lie to you in my name: 'Look, I will deliver them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and he shall kill them before your eyes;
22 Un no tiem celsies lāstu vārdi pie visiem no Jūda aizvestiem, kas ir Bābelē, un sacīs: lai Tas Kungs tev dara kā Cedeķijam un kā Ahabam, ko Bābeles ķēniņš pie uguns cepis,
and of them shall be taken up a curse by all the captives of Judah who are in Babylon, saying, "Jehovah make you like Zedekiah and like Ahiab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in the fire";
23 Tādēļ ka tie ģeķību darījuši iekš Israēla un laulību pārkāpuši ar savu tuvāko sievām un runājuši melu vārdus Manā Vārdā, ko Es tiem nebiju pavēlējis, un Es esmu Tas, kas to zin un apliecina, saka Tas Kungs.
because they have worked folly in Israel, and have committed adultery with their neighbors' wives, and have spoken words in my name falsely, which I did not command them; and I am he who knows, and am witness,' says Jehovah."
24 Un pret Nekalamieti Šemaju runā un saki:
"Concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite you shall speak, saying,
25 Tā runā Tas Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs, un saka: tādēļ, ka tu grāmatas sūtījis savā vārdā visiem ļaudīm Jeruzālemē un priesterim Cefanijam, Mazejas dēlam, un visiem priesteriem ar tiem vārdiem:
'Thus speaks Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, "Because you have sent letters in your own name to all the people who are at Jerusalem, and to Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, and to all the priests, saying,
26 Tas Kungs tevi licis par priesteri priestera Jojadas vietā, ka jums būs uzraugiem būt Tā Kunga namā pār ikkatru vīru, kas trako un sevi par pravieti turas, ka tev tos būs likt cietumā un siekstā;
'Jehovah has made you priest in the place of Jehoiada the priest, that there may be officers in the house of Jehovah, for every man who is mad, and makes himself a prophet, that you should put him in the stocks and in shackles.
27 Nu tad, kāpēc tu Jeremiju no Anatotas neesi aprājis, kas jūsu starpā turas par pravieti?
Now therefore, why have you not rebuked Jeremiah of Anathoth, who makes himself a prophet to you,
28 Tāpēc ka viņš pie mums uz Bābeli sūtījis un sacījis: būs ilgi, uztaisiet namus un dzīvojiet un dēstiet dārzus un ēdiet viņu augļus.
because he has sent to us in Babylon, saying, "The captivity is long: build houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat their fruit?"'"'
29 Un priesteris Cefanija lasīja šo grāmatu priekš pravieša Jeremijas ausīm.
Zephaniah the priest read this letter in the ears of Jeremiah the prophet.
30 Tad Tā Kunga vārds tā notika uz Jeremiju:
Then came the word of Jehovah to Jeremiah, saying,
31 Sūti jel pie visiem aizvestiem un saki: tā saka Tas Kungs pret Nekalamieti Šemaju: tādēļ ka Šemaja jums ir sludinājis, un Es to neesmu sūtījis, un ir darījis, ka jūs paļaujaties uz meliem,
"Send to all them of the captivity, saying, 'Thus says Jehovah concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite: "Because Shemaiah has prophesied to you, and I did not send him, and he has caused you to trust in a lie;
32 Tādēļ Tas Kungs tā saka: redzi, Es piemeklēšu Nekalamieti Šemaju un viņa dzimumu; viņam neviena nebūs, kas šo ļaužu vidū dzīvos un redzēs to labumu, ko Es Saviem ļaudīm darīšu, saka Tas Kungs, jo viņš ir mācījis atkāpties no Tā Kunga.
therefore," thus says Jehovah, "Look, I will punish Shemaiah the Nehelamite, and his offspring; he shall not have a man to dwell among this people, neither shall he see the good that I will do to my people, says Jehovah, because he has spoken rebellion against Jehovah."'"
