Izaija 27
1 U onaj dan kaznit će Jahve mačem ljutim, velikim i jakim Levijatana, zmiju hitru, Levijatana, zmiju vijugavu, i ubit će zmaja morskoga.
In that day, the LORD with his hard and great and strong sword will punish leviathan, the fleeing serpent, and leviathan, the twisted serpent; and he will kill the dragon that is in the sea.
2 U onaj dan pjevajte mu, vinogradu vinorodnom:
In that day, sing to her, “A pleasant vineyard!
3 Ja, Jahve, njega čuvam, svaki čas ga zalijevam, i da ga tko ne ošteti, danju i noću stražim.
I, the LORD, am its keeper. I will water it every moment. Lest anyone damage it, I will keep it night and day.
4 Nema gnjeva u meni! Nek' se trnje i drač samo pojavi, protiv njega ustat ću u boj, svega ću ga sažgati!
Wrath is not in me, but if I should find briers and thorns, I would do battle! I would march on them and I would burn them together.
5 Ili u moje nek' dođe okrilje, neka sklopi mir sa mnom, mir neka sklopi sa mnom!
Or else let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me. Let him make peace with me.”
6 Dolaze dani kad će se ukorijeniti Jakov, razgranit' se i procvasti Izrael, i sav svijet plodovima napuniti.
In days to come, Jacob will take root. Israel will blossom and bud. They will fill the surface of the world with fruit.
7 Je li ga udario kako udari one koji njega udarahu? Je li ga ubio kako ubi one koji njega ubiše?
Has he struck them as he struck those who struck them? Or are they killed like those who killed them were killed?
8 Za kaznu ga potjera, izagna, odnese ga silnim dahom svojim u dan istočnjaka.
In measure, when you send them away, you contend with them. He has removed them with his rough blast in the day of the east wind.
9 Tako će se okajati bezakonje Jakovljevo; a ovo je sve plod oproštenja grijeha njegova. Neka se smrve svi kamenovi žrtvenika kao što se u prah drobi krečno kamenje! Nek' se više ne dižu ašere i sunčani stupovi!
Therefore by this the iniquity of Jacob will be forgiven, and this is all the fruit of taking away his sin: that he makes all the stones of the altar as chalk stones that are beaten in pieces, so that the Asherah poles and the incense altars shall rise no more.
10 Jer opustje tvrdi grad, naselje je poharano, napušteno kao pustinja. Telad ondje pase - leži ondje, grmlje brsti.
For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation deserted and forsaken, like the wilderness. The calf will feed there, and there he will lie down, and consume its branches.
11 Kad mu se osuše grane, lome ih, dolaze žene i oganj pale. Jer to je narod nerazuman, zato ga neće žaliti Stvoritelj, Tvorac mu se neće smilovati.
When its boughs are withered, they will be broken off. The women will come and set them on fire, for they are a people of no understanding. Therefore he who made them will not have compassion on them, and he who formed them will show them no favor.
12 Jahve će u dan onaj klasje vrijeći od Eufrata do Potoka egipatskog, i bit ćete pobrani jedan po jedan, djeco Izraelova.
It will happen in that day that the LORD will thresh from the flowing stream of the Euphrates to the brook of Egypt; and you will be gathered one by one, children of Israel.
13 U onaj dan zatrubit će velika trublja, i doći će izgubljeni u zemlji asirskoj, i koji bijahu izgnani u zemlju egipatsku, i poklonit će se Jahvi na Svetoj gori, u Jeruzalemu.
It will happen in that day that a great trumpet will be blown; and those who were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and those who were outcasts in the land of Egypt, shall come; and they will worship the LORD in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
