Cakarijas 10

1 Lūdziet lietu no Tā Kunga vēlajā lietus laikā! Tas Kungs rada zibeņus; Viņš tiem dos lietus papilnam ikkatrai zālei laukā.

Ask from the Lord rain, at the time of spring rain, from the Lord who forms the storm clouds, and the showers of rain he gives to you, and green in the field.

2 Jo dievekļi runā nelietību, un zīlnieki rauga viltību un runā melu sapņus un iepriecina ar niekiem. Tādēļ tie maldās kā avis, tie ir nospaidīti, jo tur nav gana.

But the household gods speak nonsense, and the diviners see lies, and relate idle dreams. In vain they offer comfort, so the people wander like sheep, They suffer because there is no shepherd.

3 Pret tiem ganiem Mana bardzība iedegusies, un tos āžus Es piemeklēšu. Jo Tas Kungs Cebaot piemeklē Savu ganāmo pulku, Jūda namu, un to ieceļ Sev par goda zirgu karā.

My wrath is hot against the shepherds, and on the leaders will I bring punishment. For the Lord cares for his flock, the house of Judah, and will make them his splendid war steeds.

4 No viņa iznāks stūra akmens, nagla, kara stops un visi valdnieki līdz.

From Judah will come the cornerstone and the stay, from them the battle bow, from them goes forth every commander.

5 Un tie būs kā varoņi, kas kaušanā samin ielas dubļus, un tie kausies, jo Tas Kungs būs ar viņiem, un tie liks kaunā zirgu jājējus.

Together they will trample on warriors, as on the dirt of the streets in battle. They fight, for the Lord is with them, putting the riders on horses to shame.

6 Un Es stiprināšu Jūda namu un atpestīšu Jāzepa namu, un Es tos atkal iestādīšu, jo Es par tiem esmu apžēlojies, un tie būs, tā kā Es tos nebūtu atmetis, jo Es esmu Tas Kungs, viņu Dievs, un tos paklausīšu.

I will make strong the house of Judah, I will bring deliverance to the house of Joseph, I will bring them back for I have compassion on them, they will be as if I had not driven them away. For I am the Lord their God and will answer them.

7 Un Efraīms būs kā varonis un viņa sirds priecāsies kā no vīna. Un viņa bērni to redzēdami līksmosies, viņu sirds priecāsies iekš Tā Kunga.

The Ephraimites will be like warriors, their hearts will rejoice as with wine, their children will see and rejoice. Their hearts will exult in the Lord.

8 Un Es tos ataicināšu un sapulcēšu, jo Es tos gribu izpestīt, un tie vairosies, kā tie citkārt vairojās.

I will whistle for them, and gather them, and they will be as many as they once were.

9 Un Es tos sēšu starp tautām, un tie Mani pieminēs tālās zemēs, un tie dzīvos ar saviem bērniem un atgriezīsies.

I will sow them among the peoples, but in distant lands they will remember me, and they will bring up their children and come back.

10 Un Es tos atvedīšu no Ēģiptes zemes un tos sapulcināšu no Asīrijas un tos vedīšu uz Gileāda zemi un Tībanu, ka viņam nepietiks vietas.

I will bring them home from the land of Egypt, and from Assyria will I gather them. Into the land of Gilead and Lebanon I will bring them, until the land overflows with them.

11 Un viņš iet caur bēdu jūru un sit viļņus jūrā, un visi upes dziļumi izsīks; tad Asura lepnība taps nogāzta, un Ēģiptes scepteris zudīs.

And when they pass through the sea of distress, I will strike down the waves of the sea, and all the deeps of the Nile will be dried up. The pride of Assyria will be brought low and the sceptre of Egypt turned aside.

12 Un Es tos stiprināšu iekš Tā Kunga, un tie staigās Viņa vārdā, saka Tas Kungs.

I will make them strong in the Lord, they will walk in his name, says the Lord.
