Jeremijas 1
1 Jeremijas vārdi, kas bija Hilķijas dēls, no tiem priesteriem Anatotā Benjamina zemē.
The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests who were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin:
2 Uz to Tā Kunga vārds notika Josijas, Amona dēla, Jūda ķēniņa dienās, viņa valdīšanas trīspadsmitā gadā.
to whom the word of YHWH came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign.
3 Tāpat uz viņu notika Jojaķima, Josijas dēla, Jūda ķēniņa dienās, kamēr beidzās Cedeķijas, Josijas dēla, Jūda ķēniņa, vienpadsmitais gads, kad Jeruzālemes ļaudis tapa aizvesti piektā mēnesī.
It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, to the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, to the carrying away of Jerusalem captive in the fifth month.
4 Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz mani un sacīja:
Now the word of YHWH came to me, saying,
5 Pirms Es tevi radīju mātes miesās, Es tevi esmu pazinis, un pirms tu iznāci no mātes miesām, Es tevi esmu svētījis; tautām par pravieti Es tevi esmu licis.
"Before I formed you in the belly, I knew you. Before you came forth out of the womb, I sanctified you. I have appointed you a prophet to the nations."
6 Tad es sacīju: ak Kungs, Dievs, redzi, es neprotu runāt, jo es esmu jauns.
Then I said, "Ah, Lord YHWH. Look, I do not know how to speak; for I am a child."
7 Bet Tas Kungs uz mani sacīja: nesaki, es esmu jauns; jo visur, kurp Es tevi sūtīšu, tev būs iet, un visu, ko Es tev pavēlēšu, tev būs runāt.
But YHWH said to me, "Do not say, 'I am a child;' for to whoever I shall send you, you shall go, and whatever I shall command you, you shall speak.
8 Nebīsties no viņiem, jo Es esmu ar tevi un tevi izglābšu, saka Tas Kungs.
Do not be afraid because of them; for I am with you to deliver you," says YHWH.
9 Un Tas Kungs izstiepa Savu roku un aizskāra manu muti, un Tas Kungs sacīja uz mani: redzi, Es lieku Savus vārdus tavā mutē.
Then YHWH put forth his hand, and touched my mouth; and YHWH said to me, "Look, I have put my words in your mouth.
10 Redzi, Es tevi šodien ieceļu pār tautām un pār valstīm, izraut un salauzīt un izdeldēt un izpostīt, tad uztaisīt un dēstīt.
Look, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, to pluck up and to break down and to destroy and to overthrow, to build and to plant."
11 Un Tā Kunga vārds uz mani notika un sacīja: ko tu redzi, Jeremija? Un es sacīju: es redzu zizli (mandeļu koka zaru).
Moreover the word of YHWH came to me, saying, "Jeremiah, what do you see?" I said, "I see a branch of an almond tree."
12 Un Tas Kungs uz mani sacīja: tu esi labi redzējis; jo Es būšu nomodā par Savu vārdu, ka Es to daru.
Then YHWH said to me, "You have seen well; for I watch over my word to perform it."
13 Un Tā Kunga vārds notika uz mani otru reiz un sacīja: ko tu redzi? Un es sacīju: es redzu verdošu podu no ziemeļa puses.
The word of YHWH came to me the second time, saying, "What do you see?" I said, "I see a boiling caldron; and it is tipping away from the north."
14 Un Tas Kungs uz mani sacīja: no ziemeļa puses ļaunums gāzīsies pār visiem zemes iedzīvotājiem.
Then YHWH said to me, "Out of the north evil will break out on all the inhabitants of the land.
15 Jo redzi, Es saucu visas ķēniņu valstu ciltis no ziemeļa puses, saka Tas Kungs, un tie nāks un cels ikviens savu krēslu priekš Jeruzālemes vārtu durvīm un pret visiem viņas mūriem visapkārt un pret visām Jūda pilsētām.
For, look, I will call all the families of the kingdoms of the north," says YHWH; "and they shall come, and they shall each set his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all its walls all around, and against all the cities of Judah.
16 Un Es spriedīšu Savu sodību pret viņiem par visu viņu ļaunumu, ka tie Mani atstājuši un kvēpinājuši citiem dieviem un klanījušies priekš savu roku darba.
I will utter my judgments against them touching all their wickedness, in that they have forsaken me, and have burned incense to other gods, and worshiped the works of their own hands.
17 Tu tad apjoz savus gurnus un celies un runā uz tiem visu, ko Es tev pavēlēšu; neiztrūcinājies priekš viņiem, lai Es tevi neiztrūcināju viņu priekšā.
"You therefore put your belt on your waist, arise, and speak to them all that I command you. Do not be dismayed at them, lest I dismay you before them.
18 Jo redzi, Es tevi šodien ceļu par stipru pilsētu un par dzelzs stabu un par vara mūri pret visu šo zemi, pret Jūda ķēniņiem, pret viņu lielkungiem, pret viņu priesteriem un pret tās zemes ļaudīm.
For, look, I have made you this day a fortified city, and an iron pillar, and bronze walls, against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, against its princes, against its priests, and against the people of the land.
19 Un tie karos pret tevi, bet nekā neiespēs pret tevi; jo Es esmu ar tevi, saka Tas Kungs, tevi izglābt.
They will fight against you; but they will not prevail against you; for I am with you," says YHWH, "to deliver you."
