Jesajas 23
1 Spriedums par Tiru. Kauciet, Taršiša kuģi, jo tur ir posts, ka nama vairs nav, neviens vairs uz turieni neiet. No Ķitiju zemes viņiem šī ziņa nākusi.
The burden of Tyre. Howl, ye ships of Tarshish, for it is laid waste, so that there is no house, no entering in. It is revealed to them from the land of Kittim.
2 Paliekat klusu, jūs jūrmalas iedzīvotāji! Sidonas veikalnieki, tie jūras braucēji tevi citkārt pildīja.
Be still, ye inhabitants of the coast, thou whom the merchants of Sidon, who pass over the sea, have replenished.
3 Un tā sēkla no Šihora un tās upes labība pa lieliem ūdeņiem vesta, bija viņas krājums, un tur bija tas tautu tirgus.
And on great waters the seed of the Shihor, the harvest of the Nile, was her revenue, and she was the mart of nations.
4 Kaunies, Sidona! Jo tā jūra, tā jūras pils runā un saka: es neesmu bijusi grūta, nedz dzemdējusi, ne jaunekļus, ne jaunietes es neesmu uzaudzinājusi.
Be thou ashamed, O Sidon, for the sea has spoken, the stronghold of the sea, saying, I have not travailed, nor brought forth, neither have I nourished young men, nor brought up virgins.
5 Kad vēsts nonāk uz Ēģipti, tad iztrūcināsies, kas par Tiru dzirdēs.
When the report comes to Egypt, they shall be greatly pained at the report of Tyre.
6 Ceļaties pāri uz Taršišu, kauciet, jūs jūrmalas iedzīvotāji.
Pass ye over to Tarshish. Wail, ye inhabitants of the coast.
7 Vai šī ir jūsu līksmā pilsēta, kas cēlusies no vecu veciem laikiem? Viņas kājas to tālu aiznesušas, svešās zemēs apmesties?
Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days, whose feet carried her afar off to sojourn?
8 Kas to nolēmis par Tiru, to kronētāju, kam veikalnieki ir lielkungi, kam tirgotāji ir tie cienīgie virs zemes?
Who has purposed this against Tyre, the bestower of crowns, whose merchants are rulers, whose traders are the honored of the earth?
9 Tas Kungs Cebaot to ir nolēmis, ka Viņš kaunā liktu ikvienu glītu greznumu, un negodā visus cienīgos virs zemes.
Jehovah of hosts has purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, to bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth.
10 Pārplūsti pār savu zemi kā upe, tu Taršiša meita! Nava vairs, kas tevi saista.
Pass through thy land as the Nile, O daughter of Tarshish, there is no restraint any more.
11 Viņš Savu roku ir izstiepis pār jūru, valstis Viņš dara drebam. Tas Kungs pavēlējis par Kanaānu, viņas stiprās pilis izdeldēt.
He has stretched out his hand over the sea. He has shaken the kingdoms. Jehovah has given commandment concerning Canaan, to destroy the strongholds of it.
12 Un Viņš sacījis: tu nelīksmosies vairs, tu apsmietā jaunava, Sidonas meita. Celies pie Ķitijiem, ej projām, arī tur tev dusas nebūs.
And he said, Thou shall no more rejoice, O thou oppressed virgin daughter of Sidon. Arise, pass over to Kittim, even there shall thou have no rest.
13 Redzi Kaldeju zemi, šī tauta, kas nav bijusi, (Asurs to tuksneša zvēriem ir sataisījis), tie savus stipros torņus ir uzcēluši un Tirus skaistos namus apgāzuši un to nopostījuši.
Behold, the land of the Chaldeans. This people once was not. The Assyrian founded it for those who dwell in the wilderness. They set up their towers. They raised up the palaces of it. Then they made it a ruin.
14 Kauciet, Taršiša kuģi, jo jūsu stiprās pilis ir izpostītas.
Howl, ye ships of Tarshish, for your stronghold is laid waste.
15 Un notiks tai dienā, tad Tirus taps aizmirsts septiņdesmit gadus, viena ķēniņa mūžu; bet kad tie septiņdesmit gadi būs pagalam, tad Tirum tā ies, kā par mauku dzied:
And it shall come to pass in that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king. After the end of seventy years it shall be to Tyre as in the song of the harlot:
16 Ņem kokli, ej apkārt pa pilsētu, tu aizmirstā mauka! Spēlē jautri, dziedi daudz, lai tevi piemin!
Take a harp, go about the city, thou harlot who has been forgotten. Make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou may be remembered.
17 Un notiks pēc septiņdesmit gadiem, tad Tas Kungs piemeklēs Tiru, un Tirus atkal tiks pie savas maucības algas, un dzīs maucību ar visām pasaules valstīm, kas virs zemes.
And it came to pass after the end of seventy years, that Jehovah examined Tyre, and she has repented of her gift, that she play the harlot with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth.
18 Bet viņa peļņa un viņa maucības alga Tam Kungam tiks svētīta, tā netaps sakrāta nedz glabāta; bet viņu peļņa būs tiem, kas Tā Kunga priekšā dzīvo, ka tie ēd un paēd un glīti apģērbjās.-
And her merchandise and her pay shall be holiness to Jehovah. It shall not be treasured nor laid up, for her merchandise shall be for those who dwell before Jehovah, to eat sufficiently, and for durable clothing.
