Izaija 34
1 Pristupite, puci, da čujete, pomno slušajte, narodi; čuj, zemljo, i sve što te ispunja, kruže zemaljski i sve što raste po tebi!
Come near, O nations, to listen; pay attention, O peoples. Let the earth hear, and all that fills it, the world and all that springs from it.
2 Jer razgnjevi se Jahve na sve narode, razjari se na svu vojsku njihovu. Izruči ih uništenju, pokolju ih predade.
The LORD is angry with all the nations and furious with all their armies. He will devote them to destruction; He will give them over to slaughter.
3 Leže njihovi pobijeni, smrad se diže od trupla mnogih, krv gorama proteče,
Their slain will be left unburied, and the stench of their corpses will rise; the mountains will flow with their blood.
4 raspade se sva vojska nebeska. Nebesa se sviše kao knjiga i pada sva njihova vojska k'o što lozov list otpada, k'o što se trusi lišće smokovo.
All the stars of heaven will be dissolved. The skies will be rolled up like a scroll, and all their stars will fall like withered leaves from the vine, like foliage from the fig tree.
5 Jer na nebu je opijeni mač moj: gle, na Edom on se obara da kazni narod što ga prokleh.
When My sword has drunk its fill in the heavens, then it will come down upon Edom, upon the people I have devoted to destruction.
6 Mač Jahvin krvlju je opijen, omašćen pretilinom, krvlju janjećom i jarećom, pretilinom bubrega ovnujskih. Jer Jahvi se u Bosri žrtva prinosi, veliko klanje u zemlji edomskoj.
The sword of the LORD is bathed in blood. It drips with fat— with the blood of lambs and goats, with the fat of the kidneys of rams. For the LORD has a sacrifice in Bozrah, a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
7 S njima će biti poklani bivoli i junad s bikovima. Zemlja će se njihovom napojiti krvlju, i prašina njihova omastit' pretilinom,
And the wild oxen will fall with them, the young bulls with the strong ones. Their land will be drenched with blood, and their soil will be soaked with fat.
8 jer Jahvi je ovo dan odmazde, godina naplate da Sion osveti.
For the LORD has a day of vengeance, a year of recompense for the cause of Zion.
9 Potoci se njegovi obrću u smolu, prašina njegova u sumpor, i zemlja će mu postat smola goreća.
Edom’s streams will be turned to tar, and her soil to sulfur; her land will become a blazing pitch.
10 Ni noću ni danju ugasit' se neće, dim će joj se dizati dovijeka, iz koljena u koljeno pusta će ostati, za vjekove vjekova nitko neće prolaziti njome.
It will not be quenched—day or night. Its smoke will ascend forever. From generation to generation it will lie desolate; no one will ever again pass through it.
11 Zaposjest će je jež i čaplja, sova i gavran prebivat će u njoj. Rastegnut će nad njom uže pustoši i visak praznine.
The desert owl and screech owl will possess it, and the great owl and raven will dwell in it. The LORD will stretch out over Edom a measuring line of chaos and a plumb line of destruction.
12 Ondje će se nastaniti jarci, neće biti više plemića njezinih, ondje se više neće proglašavat' kraljevi, svi će joj knezovi biti uništeni.
No nobles will be left to proclaim a king, and all her princes will come to nothing.
13 Nići će trnje u njenim dvorcima, u tvrđavama kopriva i stričak, ona će biti jazbina čagljima, ležaj nojevima.
Her towers will be overgrown with thorns, her fortresses with thistles and briers. She will become a haunt for jackals, an abode for ostriches.
14 Ondje će se sretat divlje mačke s hijenama, jarci će dozivati jedan drugoga; ondje će se odmarati Lilit našav počivalište.
The desert creatures will meet with hyenas, and one wild goat will call to another. There the night creature will settle and find her place of repose.
15 Ondje će se gnijezditi guja, odlagati jaja, ležat' na njima, u sjeni ih tvojoj izleći; onamo će slijetati jastrebovi jedan za drugim.
There the owl will make her nest; she will lay and hatch her eggs and gather her brood under her shadow. Even there the birds of prey will gather, each with its mate.
16 Istražujte u knjizi Jahvinoj i čitajte, nijedno od tog ne izosta, jer usta njegova tako narediše i duh njegov njih sakupi.
Search and read the scroll of the LORD: Not one of these will go missing, not one will lack her mate, because He has ordered it by His mouth, and He will gather them by His Spirit.
17 Jer on im je ždrijeb bacio i ruka im njegova užetom zemlju odmjeri: dovijeka će je oni posjedovati, od koljena do koljena nju će obitavati.
He has allotted their portion; His hand has distributed it by measure. They will possess it forever; they will dwell in it from generation to generation.
