Ezekielis 32

1 Dvyliktaisiais metais, dvylikto mėnesio pirmą dieną, Viešpats kalbėjo:

2 “Žmogaus sūnau, apraudok faraoną, Egipto karalių, ir sakyk jam: ‘Tu esi kaip liūtas tarp tautų, kaip jūrų pabaisa. Tu siauti upėse, drumsti vandenį kojomis, keli bangas.

3 Taip sako Viešpats Dievas: ‘Aš užmesiu savo tinklą ant tavęs kartu su daugybe tautų, ir jie ištrauks tave.

4 Aš numesiu tave ant žemės atvirame lauke, ant tavęs tūps padangių paukščiai ir tavimi pasotinsiu visos žemės žvėris.

5 Aš tavo kūną numesiu kalnuose ir tavo lavonų pripildysiu slėnius.

6 Girdysiu žemę tavo tekančiu krauju iki kalnų, ir upės bus pilnos tavęs.

7 Kai tavo gyvybė užges, Aš uždengsiu dangų, žvaigždės nebešvies, saulę pridengsiu debesimis ir mėnulis nebespindės.

8 Dangaus šviesos tau nebešvies ir tavo krašte bus tamsu,­sako Viešpats Dievas.­

9 Daugelis tautų išsigąs, kai paskelbsiu apie tavo sunaikinimą kraštuose, kurių tu nežinai.

10 Taip, daugelis tautų baisėsis tavimi ir jų karaliai bus apimti panikos dėl tavęs, kai Aš mojuosiu savo kardu prieš juos. Jie drebės be perstojo, kiekvienas dėl savo gyvybės, tavo žlugimo dieną.

11 Babilono karaliaus kardas užpuls tave.

12 Nuo galingųjų kris tavųjų daugybė. Jie yra baisiausi tarp tautų. Jie sunaikins Egipto išdidumą ir jo minias išžudys.

13 Aš sunaikinsiu jo galvijus prie gausių vandenų, ir jokio žmogaus koja nė gyvulio kanopa nebedrums jų.

14 Aš padarysiu jo vandenis tyrus, upės tekės lyg skaidrus aliejus,­sako Viešpats Dievas.­

15 Kai Aš Egipto kraštą paversiu dykyne, sunaikinsiu jo išteklius ir išžudysiu gyventojus, tada jie žinos, kad Aš esu Viešpats.

16 Tai rauda, kuria jį apraudos, tautų dukros apraudos jį. Jos apraudos Egiptą ir jo minias,­sako Viešpats’ ”.

17 Dvyliktaisiais metais, pirmo mėnesio penkioliktą dieną, Viešpats kalbėjo man:

18 “Žmogaus sūnau, apraudok Egipto minias ir nustumk jį bei žymių tautų dukteris į mirusiųjų buveinę:

19 ‘Už ką tu pranašesnis? Eik ir gulėk su neapipjaustytaisiais’.

20 Jie kris tarp užmuštųjų kardu, ir jis bus atiduotas kardui. Nutempk jį ir jo minias.

21 Mirusiųjų buveinėje galingieji karžygiai su savo sąjungininkais kalbės apie tave: ‘Jie nužengė žemyn ir guli kartu su neapipjaustytaisiais, nužudytais kardu’.

22 Ten yra Asirija ir jos minios­jų kapai aplinkui jį­jie visi nužudyti kardu.

23 Jie palaidoti giliausioje duobėje ir jos žmonės aplinkui ją. Nuo kardo žuvo visi, kurie kėlė siaubą gyvųjų šalyje.

24 Ten guli Elamas ir jo minios aplinkui jo kapą. Visi, žuvę nuo kardo, nužengė į mirusiųjų buveinę. Jie kėlė siaubą gyvųjų šalyje, bet dabar kenčia gėdą kartu su nužengusiais į duobę.

25 Jį paguldė tarp žuvusiųjų ir jo minias aplink jo kapą. Jie visi yra neapipjaustyti, kritę nuo kardo. Jie kėlė siaubą gyvųjų šalyje, bet dabar kenčia gėdą kartu su nužengusiais į duobę, jie paguldyti tarp užmuštųjų.

26 Mešechas ir Tubalas yra čia su savo miniomis ir jų kapai yra aplinkui jį. Jie visi yra neapipjaustyti, kritę nuo kardo, nors jie kėlė siaubą gyvųjų šalyje.

27 Jie negulės drauge su senovėje kritusiais karžygiais, kurie su savo ginklais nužengė į mirusiųjų buveinę; jiems kardą padėjo po galva ir skydu pridengė kaulus.

28 Ir tu būsi sutrintas ir gulėsi drauge su neapipjaustytaisiais, kritusiais nuo kardo.

29 Ten guli edomitai su jų karaliais ir kunigaikščiais, kurie, nepaisant jų galybės, krito nuo kardo ir guli su neapipjaustytaisiais, nužengusiais į duobę.

30 Ten guli visi šiaurės kunigaikščiai ir visi sidoniečiai, nužengę su užmuštaisiais. Nepaisant jų galybės, jie yra pažeminti, guli drauge su neapipjaustytaisiais.

31 Faraonas, matydamas juos, bus paguostas dėl savo žmonių daugybės­faraono ir jo visos kariuomenės,­nužudytų kardu,­sako Viešpats.­

32 Aš sukėliau siaubą gyvųjų šalyje, ir jis gulės drauge su neapipjaustytaisiais,­sako Viešpats Dievas”.

In Genesis 19:37; 21:26; 30:32; 40:7; Matthew 6:30; Luke 12:28, this signifies the perpetuity and eternity of a state. (Arcana Coelestia 2838)

In Psalm 2:7, this signifies in time; for with Jehovah the future is present. (True Christian Religion 101)

The expression 'even to this day' or 'today' sometimes appears in the Word, as in Genesis 19:37-38, 22:14, 26:33, 32:32, 35:20, and 47:26. In a historical sense, these expressions have respect to the time when Moses lived, but in an internal sense, 'this day' and 'today' signify the perpetuity and eternity of a state. 'Day' denotes state, and likewise 'today,' which is the current time. Anything related to time in the world is eternal in heaven, and to represent this, 'today' or 'to this day' is added. Although, in the historical sense, this appears as if the expressions only have a literal meaning, just like it says in other parts of the Word, such as Joshua 4:9, 6:25, 7:20, Judges 1:21, 26, etc. 'Today' means something perpetual and eternal in Psalms 2:7, 119:89-91, Jeremiah 1:5, 10, 18, Deuteronomy 29:9-14, Numbers 28:3, 23, Daniel 8:13, 11:31, 12:11, Exodus 16:4, 19, 20, 23, John 6:31, 32, 49, 50, 58, Matthew 6:11, and Luke 11:3.

Genesis 30

1 When Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister. She said to Jacob, "Give me children, or else I will die."

2 Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel, and he said, "Am I in God's place, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?"

3 She said, "Behold, my maid Bilhah. Go in to her, that she may bear on my knees, and I also may obtain children by her."

4 She gave him Bilhah her handmaid as wife, and Jacob went in to her.

5 Bilhah conceived, and bore Jacob a son.

6 Rachel said, "God has judged me, and has also heard my voice, and has given me a son." Therefore called she his name Dan.

7 Bilhah, Rachel's handmaid, conceived again, and bore Jacob a second son.

8 Rachel said, "With mighty wrestlings have I wrestled with my sister, and have prevailed." She named him Naphtali.

9 When Leah saw that she had finished bearing, she took Zilpah, her handmaid, and gave her to Jacob as a wife.

10 Zilpah, Leah's handmaid, bore Jacob a son.

11 Leah said, "How fortunate!" She named him Gad.

12 Zilpah, Leah's handmaid, bore Jacob a second son.

13 Leah said, "Happy am I, for the daughters will call me Happy." She named him Asher.

14 Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest, and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them to his mother, Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, "Please give me some of your son's mandrakes."

15 She said to her, "Is it a small matter that you have taken away my husband? Would you take away my son's mandrakes, also?" Rachel said, "Therefore he will lie with you tonight for your son's mandrakes."

16 Jacob came from the field in the evening, and Leah went out to meet him, and said, "You must come in to me; for I have surely hired you with my son's mandrakes." He lay with her that night.

17 God listened to Leah, and she conceived, and bore Jacob a fifth son.

18 Leah said, "God has given me my hire, because I gave my handmaid to my husband." She named him Issachar.

19 Leah conceived again, and bore a sixth son to Jacob.

20 Leah said, "God has endowed me with a good dowry. Now my husband will live with me, because I have borne him six sons." She named him Zebulun.

21 Afterwards, she bore a daughter, and named her Dinah.

22 God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her, and opened her womb.

23 She conceived, bore a son, and said, "God has taken away my reproach."

24 She named him Joseph, saying, "May Yahweh add another son to me."

25 It happened, when Rachel had borne Joseph, that Jacob said to Laban, "Send me away, that I may go to my own place, and to my country.

26 Give me my wives and my children for whom I have served you, and let me go; for you know my service with which I have served you."

27 Laban said to him, "If now I have found favor in your eyes, stay here, for I have divined that Yahweh has blessed me for your sake."

28 He said, "Appoint me your wages, and I will give it."

29 He said to him, "You know how I have served you, and how your livestock have fared with me.

30 For it was little which you had before I came, and it has increased to a multitude. Yahweh has blessed you wherever I turned. Now when will I provide for my own house also?"

31 He said, "What shall I give you?" Jacob said, "You shall not give me anything. If you will do this thing for me, I will again feed your flock and keep it.

32 I will pass through all your flock today, removing from there every speckled and spotted one, and every black one among the sheep, and the spotted and speckled among the goats. This will be my hire.

33 So my righteousness will answer for me hereafter, when you come concerning my hire that is before you. Every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and black among the sheep, that might be with me, will be counted stolen."

34 Laban said, "Behold, let it be according to your word."

35 That day, he removed the male goats that were streaked and spotted, and all the female goats that were speckled and spotted, every one that had white in it, and all the black ones among the sheep, and gave them into the hand of his sons.

36 He set three days' journey between himself and Jacob, and Jacob fed the rest of Laban's flocks.

37 Jacob took to himself rods of fresh poplar, almond, plane tree, peeled white streaks in them, and made the white appear which was in the rods.

38 He set the rods which he had peeled opposite the flocks in the gutters in the watering-troughs where the flocks came to drink. They conceived when they came to drink.

39 The flocks conceived before the rods, and the flocks brought forth streaked, speckled, and spotted.

40 Jacob separated the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the streaked and all the black in the flock of Laban: and he put his own droves apart, and didn't put them into Laban's flock.

41 It happened, whenever the stronger of the flock conceived, that Jacob laid the rods before the eyes of the flock in the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods;

42 but when the flock were feeble, he didn't put them in. So the feebler were Laban's, and the stronger Jacob's.

43 The man increased exceedingly, and had large flocks, female servants and male servants, and camels and donkeys.
