Izaija 6
1 One godine kad umrije kralj Uzija, vidjeh Gospoda gdje sjedi na prijestolju visoku i uzvišenu. Skuti njegova plašta ispunjahu Svetište.
And it came to pass in the year in which king Ozias died, [that] I saw the Lord sitting on a high and exalted throne, and the house was full of his glory.
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.
And seraphs stood round about him: each one had six wings: and with two they covered [their] face, and with two they covered [their] feet, and with two they flew.
3 I klicahu jedan drugome: “Svet! Svet! Svet Jahve nad Vojskama! Puna je sva zemlja Slave njegove!”
And one cried to the other, and they 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 lintel shook at the voice they uttered, 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!”
And I said, Woe is me, for I am pricked to the heart; for being a man, and having unclean lips, I dwell in the midst of a people having unclean lips; and I have seen with mine eyes the King, the Lord of hosts.
6 Jedan od serafa doletje k meni: u ruci mu žerava koju uze kliještima sa žrtvenika;
And there was sent to me one of the seraphs, and he had in his hand a coal, which he had taken off the altar with the tongs:
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, and said, Behold, this has touched your lips, and will take away your iniquities, and will purge off your sins.
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 to this people? And I said, behold, I am [here], send me. And he said, Go, and say to this people,
9 On odgovori: “Idi i reci tom narodu: 'Slušajte dobro, al' nećete razumjeti, gledajte dobro, al' nećete spoznati.'
You shall hear indeed, but you shall not understand; and you shall see indeed, but you shall not perceive.
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.”
For the heart of this people has become gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.
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,
And I said, How long, O Lord? And he said, Until cities be deserted by reason of their not being inhabited, and the houses by reason of there being no men, and the land shall be left desolate.
12 dok Jahve daleko ne protjera ljude. Haranje veliko pogodit će zemlju,
And after this God shall remove the men far off, and they that are left upon the land shall be multiplied.
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 yet there shall be a tenth upon it, and again it shall be for a spoil, as a turpentine tree, and as an acorn when it falls out of its husk.
