Izaija 6
1 One godine kad umrije kralj Uzija, vidjeh Gospoda gdje sjedi na prijestolju visoku i uzvišenu. Skuti njegova plašta ispunjahu Svetište.
In the year that king Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne high and lifted up, and His train filled the temple.
2 Iznad njega stajahu serafi; svaki je imao po šest krila: dva krila da zakloni lice, dva da zakrije noge, a dvama je krilima letio.
Above Him stood the seraphim; each one had six wings: with twain he covered his face and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.
3 I klicahu jedan drugome: “Svet! Svet! Svet Jahve nad Vojskama! Puna je sva zemlja Slave njegove!”
And one called unto another, and said: Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory.
4 Od gromka glasa onih koji klicahu stresoše se dovraci na pragovima, a Dom se napuni dimom.
And the posts of the door were moved at the voice of them that called, and the house was filled with smoke.
5 Rekoh: “Jao meni, propadoh, jer čovjek sam nečistih usana, u narodu nečistih usana prebivam, a oči mi vidješe Kralja, Jahvu nad Vojskama!”
Then said I: Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.
6 Jedan od serafa doletje k meni: u ruci mu žerava koju uze kliještima sa žrtvenika;
Then flew unto me one of the seraphim, with a glowing stone in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar;
7 dotače se njome mojih usta i reče: “Evo, usne je tvoje dotaklo, krivica ti je skinuta i grijeh oprošten.”
and he touched my mouth with it, and said: Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin expiated.
8 Tad čuh glas Gospodnji: “Koga da pošaljem? I tko će nam poći?” Ja rekoh: “Evo me, mene pošalji!”
And I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then I said: 'Here am I; send me.'
9 On odgovori: “Idi i reci tom narodu: 'Slušajte dobro, al' nećete razumjeti, gledajte dobro, al' nećete spoznati.'
And He said: 'Go, and tell this people: hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.
10 Otežaj salom srce tom narodu, ogluši mu uši, zaslijepi oči, da očima ne vidi, da ušima ne čuje i srcem da ne razumije kako bi se obratio i ozdravio.”
Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they, seeing with their eyes, and hearing with their ears, and understanding with their heart, return, and be healed.'
11 Ja rekoh: “Dokle, o Gospode?” On mi odgovori: “Dok gradovi ne opuste i ne ostanu bez žitelja, dok kuće ne budu bez ikoga živa, i zemlja ne postane pustoš,
Then said I: 'Lord, how long?' And He answered: 'Until cities be waste without inhabitant, and houses without man, and the land become utterly waste,
12 dok Jahve daleko ne protjera ljude. Haranje veliko pogodit će zemlju,
And the LORD have removed men far away, and the forsaken places be many in the midst of the land.
13 i ostane li u njoj još desetina, i ona će biti zatrta poput duba kad ga do panja posijeku. Panj će njihov biti sveto sjeme.”
And if there be yet a tenth in it, it shall again be eaten up; as a terebinth, and as an oak, whose stock remaineth, when they cast their leaves, so the holy seed shall be the stock thereof.'
