< Izaija 2 >

1 Viđenje Izaije, sina Amosova, o Judeji i Jeruzalemu:
The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
2 Dogodit će se na kraju dana: Gora Doma Jahvina bit će postavljena vrh svih gora, uzvišena iznad svih bregova. K njoj će se stjecati svi narodi,
And it shall come to pass in the end of days, that the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established as the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.
3 nagrnut će mnoga plemena i reći: “Hajde, uziđimo na Goru Jahvinu, pođimo u Dom Boga Jakovljeva! On će nas naučiti svojim putovima, hodit ćemo stazama njegovim. Jer će iz Siona Zakon doći, iz Jeruzalema riječ Jahvina.”
And many peoples shall go and say: 'Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and He will teach us of His ways, and we will walk in His paths.' For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
4 On će biti sudac narodima, mnogim će sudit' plemenima, koji će mačeve prekovati u plugove, a koplja u srpove. Neće više narod dizat' mača protiv naroda nit' se više učit' ratovanju.
And He shall judge between the nations, and shall decide for many peoples; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
5 Hajde, dome Jakovljev, u Jahvinoj hodimo svjetlosti!
O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of the LORD.
6 Da, ti si svoj odbacio narod, dom Jakovljev, jer je pun vračeva s istoka i gatara kao Filistejci, bratime se s tuđincima.
For Thou hast forsaken Thy people the house of Jacob; for they are replenished from the east, and with soothsayers like the Philistines, and they please themselves in the brood of aliens.
7 Zemlja mu je puna srebra i zlata i blagu mu kraja nema; zemlja mu je puna konja, kolima mu broja nema.
Their land also is full of silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures; their land also is full of horses, neither is there any end of their chariots.
8 Zemlja mu je prepuna kumira i oni se klanjaju pred djelom ruku svojih, pred onim što njihovi načiniše prsti.
Their land also is full of idols; every one worshippeth the work of his own hands, that which his own fingers have made.
9 Smrtnik će se poviti, čovjek sniziti; ne praštaj im.
And man boweth down, and man lowereth himself; and Thou canst not bear with them.
10 Uđi među pećine, skrij se u prašinu, pred užasom Jahvinim, pred sjajem veličanstva njegova, kad ustane da potrese zemlju.
Enter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of His majesty.
11 Ohol pogled bit će skršen i bahatost ljudska ponižena. Jahve će se uzvisiti, on jedini - u dan onaj.
The lofty looks of man shall be brought low, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.
12 Da, bit će to dan Jahve nad Vojskama, protiv svih oholih i bahatih, protiv sviju što se uzvisiše, da ih obori;
For the LORD of hosts hath a day upon all that is proud and lofty, and upon all that is lifted up, and it shall be brought low;
13 protiv svih cedrova libanonskih i svih hrastova bašanskih;
And upon all the cedars of Lebanon that are high and lifted up, and upon all the oaks of Bashan;
14 protiv svih gora uznositih i svih bregova uzdignutih;
And upon all the high mountains, and upon all the hills that are lifted up;
15 protiv svake visoke tvrđe i svih tvrdih zidina;
And upon every lofty tower, and upon every fortified wall;
16 protiv sveg brodovlja taršiškog i svih brodova raskošnih.
And upon all the ships of Tarshish, and upon all delightful imagery.
17 Oholost ljudska skršit će se i bahatost ljudska poniziti. Jahve će se uzvisiti, on jedini - u dan onaj,
And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low; and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.
18 i kumiri će netragom nestati.
And the idols shall utterly pass away.
19 Uđite u rupe među pećinama i u spilje zemaljske pred užasom Jahvinim, pred sjajem veličanstva njegova, kad ustane da potrese zemlju.
And men shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of His majesty, when He ariseth to shake mightily the earth.
20 U dan onaj: bacit će svaki svoje srebro i zlatne kumire koje sebi načini da im se klanja,
In that day a man shall cast away his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which they made for themselves to worship, to the moles and to the bats;
21 kad uteče u šupljine pećina i u raspukline stijena pred užasom Jahvinim, pred sjajem veličanstva njegova, kad ustane da potrese zemlju.
To go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the crevices of the crags, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of His majesty, when he ariseth to shake mightily the earth.
22 Čuvajte se, dakle, čovjeka koji ima samo jedan dah u nosnicama: jer što vrijedi?
Cease ye from man, in whose nostrils is a breath; for how little is he to be accounted!
