< Isaiah 49 >

1 Listen, islands, to me. Listen, you peoples, from afar: the LORD has called me from the womb; from the inside of my mother, he has mentioned my name.
Klausāties uz mani, salas, un ņemiet vērā, tauta no tālienes: Tas Kungs mani aicinājis no mātes miesām, Viņš manu vārdu minējis, kad es vēl biju mātes miesās.
2 He has made my mouth like a sharp sword. He has hidden me in the shadow of his hand. He has made me a polished shaft. He has kept me close in his quiver.
Un Viņš manu muti darījis kā asu zobenu, Savas rokas ēnā Viņš mani apslēpis. Viņš mani iecēlis par spožu bultu un glabājis Savā bultu makā.
3 He said to me, “You are my servant, Israel, in whom I will be glorified.”
Un Viņš uz mani sacījis: tu esi Mans kalps, Israēl, pie kā Es pagodināšos.
4 But I said, “I have labored in vain. I have spent my strength in vain for nothing; yet surely the justice due to me is with the LORD, and my reward with my God.”
Bet es sacīju: es esmu velti strādājis, es savu spēku esmu tērējis par neko un velti; tomēr mana tiesa ir pie Tā Kunga un mana alga pie mana Dieva.
5 Now the LORD, he who formed me from the womb to be his servant, says to bring Jacob again to him, and to gather Israel to him, for I am honorable in the LORD’s eyes, and my God has become my strength.
Un nu saka Tas Kungs, kas no mātes miesām mani darījis Sev par kalpu, Jēkabu atkal atvest pie Viņa un Israēli pie Viņa sapulcināt - un es esmu pagodināts Tā Kunga acīs, un mans Dievs ir mans stiprums.
6 Indeed, he says, “It is too light a thing that you should be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel. I will also give you as a light to the nations, that you may be my salvation to the end of the earth.”
Viņš saka: tas ir maz, ka tu esi Mans kalps, uztaisīt Jēkaba ciltis un atkal atvest Israēla izsargātos; bet Es tevi arī pagāniem esmu iecēlis par gaišumu, ka tu esi Mana pestīšana līdz pasaules galiem.
7 The LORD, the Redeemer of Israel, and his Holy One, says to him whom man despises, to him whom the nation abhors, to a servant of rulers: “Kings shall see and rise up, princes, and they shall worship, because of the LORD who is faithful, even the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen you.”
Tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Pestītājs, viņa Svētais, uz to, kam dvēsele top nicināta, ko ļaudis tur par negantību, kas varas darītājiem par kalpu. Ķēniņi redzēs un pacelsies, lielkungi metīsies zemē Tā Kunga dēļ, kas ir uzticīgs, Israēla Svētā dēļ, kas tevi izredzējis.
8 The LORD says, “I have answered you in an acceptable time. I have helped you in a day of salvation. I will preserve you and give you for a covenant of the people, to raise up the land, to make them inherit the desolate heritage,
Tā saka Tas Kungs: Es tevi esmu paklausījis labā pieņemīgā laikā, un tev esmu palīdzējis pestīšanas dienā. Un Es tevi pasargāšu un tevi iecelšu tautai par derību, zemi uztaisīt, ka ikviens iemanto savu postīto daļu,
9 saying to those who are bound, ‘Come out!’; to those who are in darkness, ‘Show yourselves!’ “They shall feed along the paths, and their pasture shall be on all treeless heights.
Un sacīt uz tiem, kas cietumā: ejat ārā! Uz tiem, kas tumsā: nāciet gaismā! Tie ganīsies ceļmalā un ganība tiem būs visās augstās vietās.
10 They shall not hunger nor thirst; neither shall the heat nor sun strike them, for he who has mercy on them will lead them. He will guide them by springs of water.
Tie ne izsalks, nedz izslāps, tos arī nespiedīs ne karstums, ne saule; jo viņu apžēlotājs tos vadīs un tos vedīs lēniņām pie ūdens avotiem.
11 I will make all my mountains a road, and my highways shall be exalted.
Un Es darīšu visus Savus kalnus par ceļu, un Mani lielceļi taps paaugstināti.
12 Behold, these shall come from afar, and behold, these from the north and from the west, and these from the land of Sinim.”
Redzi, šie nāks no tālienes, un redzi, šie no ziemeļa puses un no jūras, un šie no Sinimas zemes.
13 Sing, heavens, and be joyful, earth! Break out into singing, mountains! For the LORD has comforted his people, and will have compassion on his afflicted.
Gavilējat, debesis, un priecājies, zeme, sākat gavilēt, kalni, jo Tas Kungs iepriecina Savus ļaudis un apžēlojās par Saviem bēdīgiem.
14 But Zion said, “The LORD has forsaken me, and the Lord has forgotten me.”
Bet Ciāna saka: Tas Kungs mani atstājis, un Tas Kungs mani aizmirsis.
15 “Can a woman forget her nursing child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? Yes, these may forget, yet I will not forget you!
Vai sieva var aizmirst savu zīdāmo bērnu, neapžēlodamās par savu miesīgo dēlu? Un jebšu viņa to aizmirstu, tomēr Es tevi neaizmirsīšu!
16 Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands. Your walls are continually before me.
Redzi, Savās rokās Es tevi esmu rakstījis, tavi mūri ir vienmēr Manā priekšā.
17 Your children hurry. Your destroyers and those who devastated you will leave you.
Tavi bērni steigsies šurp, bet tavi postītāji un izdeldētāji ies projām no tevis.
18 Lift up your eyes all around, and see: all these gather themselves together, and come to you. As I live,” says the LORD, “you shall surely clothe yourself with them all as with an ornament, and dress yourself with them, like a bride.
Pacel savas acis visapkārt, un redzi: visi šie sapulcinājās un nāk pie tevis. Tik tiešām kā Es dzīvoju, saka Tas Kungs, tu tapsi ar visiem šiem apģērbta tā kā ar glītumu un apjozīsies ar tiem kā brūte,
19 “For, as for your waste and your desolate places, and your land that has been destroyed, surely now that land will be too small for the inhabitants, and those who swallowed you up will be far away.
Jo tava aplaupītā, iztukšotā, nopostītā zeme tev nu taps visai šaura tik daudz iedzīvotāju dēļ, un tavi aprijēji atkāpsies tālu no tevis.
20 The children of your bereavement will say in your ears, ‘This place is too small for me. Give me a place to live in.’
Tad tie bērni, kas bija zuduši, sacīs priekš tavām ausīm: tā vieta priekš manis ir šaura; ej tālāk, ka es varu dzīvot.
21 Then you will say in your heart, ‘Who has conceived these for me, since I have been bereaved of my children and am alone, an exile, and wandering back and forth? Who has brought these up? Behold, I was left alone. Where were these?’”
Bet tu sacīsi savā sirdī: kas man šos dzemdinājis, jo es biju bez bērniem, vientule, es biju cietumā vesta un atstumta; kas tad šos man ir uzaudzinājis? Redzi, es biju atstāta viena, kur tad šie bija?
22 The Lord GOD says, “Behold, I will lift up my hand to the nations, and lift up my banner to the peoples. They shall bring your sons in their bosom, and your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders.
Tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: redzi, Es pacelšu Savu roku uz pagāniem un izcelšu tautām Savu karogu, tad tie tavus dēlus atnesīs klēpī, un tavas meitas nesīs uz kamiešiem.
23 Kings shall be your foster fathers, and their queens your nursing mothers. They will bow down to you with their faces to the earth, and lick the dust of your feet. Then you will know that I am the LORD; and those who wait for me will not be disappointed.”
Un ķēniņi būs tavi audzinātāji un viņu ķēniņienes tavas zīdītājas. Tie metīsies uz vaigu zemē priekš tevis un laizīs tavu kāju pīšļus. Tad tu manīsi, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs, pie kā netop kaunā, kas uz Mani cerē.
24 Shall the plunder be taken from the mighty, or the lawful captives be delivered?
Vai gan varenam var atņemt laupījumu? Jeb vai taisni var izsprukt no viņa cietuma?
25 But the LORD says, “Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the plunder retrieved from the fierce, for I will contend with him who contends with you and I will save your children.
Bet nu Tas Kungs tā saka: tiešām, cietumnieki varenajam taps atņemti, un laupījums izspruks varas darītājam; jo taviem pretiniekiem Es stāšos pretī, un tavus bērnus Es izpestīšu.
26 I will feed those who oppress you with their own flesh; and they will be drunk on their own blood, as with sweet wine. Then all flesh shall know that I, the LORD, am your Savior and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.”
Un tavus spaidītājus Es ēdināšu ar viņu pašu miesām, un tie piedzersies no savām pašu asinīm kā no salda vīna, un visa miesa manīs, ka Es esmu Tas Kungs, tavs Pestītājs un tavs izglābējs, tas Varenais iekš Jēkaba.
