Israēla izpostīšana
1 Es redzēju Kungu stāvam pār altāri, un viņš teica: “Sasit velvi, ka notrīc sliekšņi,
brucini uz galvas tiem visiem,
un tos, kas paliks pāri,
es ar zobenu apkaušu,
ka neviens no tiem neizmuks,
ka neviens no tiem neglābsies!
2 Kaut tie līdz šeolam aizraktos,
no turienes mana roka tos paņems!
Kaut tie uzkāptu debesīs,
tur es tos sadabūšu!
3 Kaut tie paslēptos Karmela kalnā,
tur sameklēšu un paņemšu viņus!
Kaut no manām acīm tie jūras dibenā noslēptos,
tur čūskai es vēlēšu sakost viņus!
4 Kaut tie aizietu gūstā savu naidnieku priekšā,
tur zobenam vēlēšu nokaut viņus,
es likšu savu aci pār tiem uz ļaunu, ne labu!”
5 Kungs, Pulku Kungs,
pieskaras zemei, ka tā kūst,
ka sēro visi tās iemītnieki,
ka tā visa ceļas kā Nīla
un pārplūst kā Nīla Ēģiptē,
6 kas savas istabas debesīs ceļ,
kas savam mājoklim uz zemes liek pamatu,
kas jūras ūdeņiem uzsauc
un tos izlej pār zemes vaigu –
Kungs ir viņa vārds!
7 “Vai ne kā Kūšas dēli jūs man esat, Israēla dēli?”
saka Kungs.
“Vai ne Israēlu es izvedu no Ēģiptes zemes
un filistiešus no Kaftoras, un aramiešus no Kīras?
8 Redzi, Kunga Dieva acis pār jūsu ķēniņvalsti –
es iznīcināšu to no zemes virsas!
Vien Jēkaba namu nīcināt es nenīcināšu! –
saka Kungs.
9 Jo, redzi, es pavēlēšu,
un Israēla nams izbirs starp visām tautām –
kā sieku šūpojot, ka nenokrīt zemē ne grauds!
10 No zobena mirs visi manas tautas grēcinieki,
kas saka: nenāks un negadīsies mums nekas ļauns!
Dāvida nama atjaunošana
(Apd 15:16–17)11 Todien es uzsliešu Dāvida būdu, kas sakritusi,
sakopšu tās zarus; kas nogāzts, sasliešu,
atkal uzcelšu kā senās dienās!
12 Tādēļ, lai tie iemantotu Edoma atlikumu
un visas tautas, pār kurām ir saukts mans vārds! –
saka Kungs, kas visu to izdarīs.
13 Redzi, nāk dienas, saka Kungs,
kad arājs ražas vācēju panāks
un vīnspiedējs to, kas sēj sēklu,
un kalni no saldvīna pilēs, pakalni pludos no tā!
14 Es atvedīšu atpakaļ savas tautas Israēla gūstekņus,
tie uzcels sagrautās pilsētas un dzīvos tur,
un stādīs vīnadārzus un dzers vīnu,
dēstīs dārzus un ēdīs to augļus!
15 Es viņus iestādīšu pašu zemē,
neviens tos vairs neizraus no savas zemes,
ko es tiem esmu devis!” saka Kungs, tavs Dievs.
1 I saw the Lord standing upon the altar: and he said, Smite the lintel of the door, that the posts may shake: and cut them in the head, all of them; and I will slay the last of them with the sword: he that fleeth of them shall not flee away, and he that escapeth of them shall not be delivered. 2 Though they dig into hell, thence shall mine hand take them; though they climb up to heaven, thence will I bring them down: 3 And though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out thence; and though they be hid from my sight in the bottom of the sea, thence will I command the serpent, and he shall bite them: 4 And though they go into captivity before their enemies, thence will I command the sword, and it shall slay them: and I will set mine eyes upon them for evil, and not for good. 5 And the Lord GOD of hosts is he that toucheth the land, and it shall melt, and all that dwell therein shall mourn: and it shall rise up wholly like a flood; and shall be drowned, as by the flood of Egypt. 6 It is he that buildeth his stories in the heaven, and hath founded his troop in the earth; he that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The LORD is his name. 7 Are ye not as children of the Ethiopians unto me, O children of Israel? saith the LORD. Have not I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt? and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir? 8 Behold, the eyes of the Lord GOD are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; saving that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, saith the LORD. 9 For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like as corn is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth. 10 All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, which say, The evil shall not overtake nor prevent us.
11 ¶ In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old: 12 That they may possess the remnant of Edom, and of all the heathen, which are called by my name, saith the LORD that doeth this. 13 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seed; and the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and all the hills shall melt. 14 And I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them. 15 And I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be pulled up out of their land which I have given them, saith the LORD thy God.
