Esias 21
1 THE VISION OF THE DESERT. As though a whirlwind should pass through the desert, coming from a desert, [even] from such a land,
Spriedums par jūras tuksnesi. Tā kā aukas no dienvidiem(Negebas), kas visu apgāž, tā nāks no tuksneša, no briesmīgas zemes.
2 [so] a fearful and a grievous vision was declared to me: he that is treacherous deals treacherously, the transgressor transgresses. The Elamites are upon me, and the ambassadors of the Persians come against me: now will I groan and comfort myself.
Grūta parādīšana man darīta zināma. Laupītājs laupa, postītājs posta. Nāc šurp, Elam, apstāj, Medija! Visām nopūtām par tiem es darīšu galu.
3 Therefore are my loins filled with feebleness, and pangs have seized me as a travailing woman: I dealt wrongfully that I might not hear; I hasted that I might not see.
Tādēļ mani gurni dreb, raizes mani sagrābušas, kā dzemdētājas raizes. Es lokos, ka vairs nedzirdu, un iztrūcinājos, ka vairs neredzu.
4 My heart wanders, and transgression overwhelms me; my soul is occupied with fear.
Mana sirds trīc, izbailes mani iztrūcina, mīļā nakts tumsa man palikusi par biedēkli.
5 Prepare the table, eat, drink: arise, you princes, and prepare [your] shields.
Sataisi galdu, nostādi vaktis, ēd, dzer! Ceļaties, virsnieki, svaidat bruņas.
6 For thus said the Lord to me, Go and station a watchman for yourself, and declare whatever you shall see.
Jo tā Tas Kungs uz mani sacījis: ej, nostādi vaktnieku, lai tas stāsta, ko redz.
7 And I saw two mounted horsemen, and a rider on an ass, and a rider on a camel.
Un viņš redzēja ratus, jātniekus pa pāriem, ēzeļu pulku, kamieļu pulku, un viņš klausīdamies klausījās it uzmanīgi,
8 Listen with great attention, and call you Urias to the watch-tower: the Lord has spoken. I stood continually during the day, and I stood in the camp all night:
Un sauca ar lauvas balsi: Kungs, es stāvu uz vakts torņa visu cauru dienu un vaktēdams vaktēju caurām naktīm.
9 and, behold, he comes riding in a chariot and pair: and he answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all her images and her idols have been crushed to the ground.
Redzi, tur nāk rati ar vīriem un jātnieki pa pāriem. Tad viņš atbildēja un sacīja: kritusi, kritusi Bābele, un visi viņas dievekļu tēli ir sadauzīti pie zemes.
10 Hear, you that are left, and you that are in pain, hear what things I have heard of the Lord of hosts [which] the God of Israel has declared to us. THE VISION OF IDUMEA.
Ak tu mans izkultais, tu mana klona labībiņa! Ko es esmu dzirdējis no Tā Kunga Cebaot, Israēla Dieva, to jums esmu pasludinājis.
11 Call to me out of Seir; guard you the bulwarks.
Spriedums par Dumu: uz mani sauc no Seīra: sargs, cik gara vēl nakts? Sargs, cik gara vēl nakts?
12 I watch in the morning and the night: if you would enquire, enquire, and dwell by me.
Tas sargs saka: rīts nāk un atkal nakts. Ja gribat vaicāt, vaicājiet! Atgriežaties, nāciet!
13 You may lodge in the forest in the evening, or in the way of Daedan.
Spriedums par Arābiju: Arābijas tuksnešos paliekat par nakti, jūs Dedana ceļa vīri.
14 You that dwell in the country of Thaeman, bring water to meet him that is thirsty;
Nāciet izslāpušiem pretī ar ūdeni, jūs Temas zemes iedzīvotāji, pasniedziet maizi bēdzējiem.
15 meet the fugitives with bread, because of the multitude of the slain, and because of the multitude of them that lose their way, and because of the multitude of swords, and because of the multitude of bent bows, and because of the multitude of them that have fallen in war.
Jo tie bēg no zobena, no izvilkta zobena un no uzvilkta stopa un no briesmīgas kaujas.
16 For thus said the Lord to me, Yet a year, as the year of an hireling, [and] the glory of the sons of Kedar shall fail:
Jo tā Tas Kungs uz mani sacījis: gada laikā, kādi ir algādža gadi, tad beigsies visa Ķedara godība.
17 and the remnant of the strong bows of the sons of Kedar shall be small: for the Lord God of Israel has spoken [it].
Un strēlnieku atlikums no tiem vareniem Ķedara bērniem būs mazums; jo Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs, to ir runājis.
