Izaija 63
1 Tko je taj što dolazi iz Edoma, iz Bosre, u haljinama crvenim? Tko je taj što veličanstveno odjenut pun snage korača? - Ja sam to koji naučavam pravdu, velik kad spasavam!
Who is this that comes from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.
2 - Zašto je crvena tvoja haljina i odijelo kao u onog koji gazi u kaci?
Wherefore are you red in your apparel, and your garments like him that treads in the winepress?
3 - U kaci sam sam gazio, od narodÄa nikog ne bijaše. U gnjevu ih svom izgazih i zgnječih u svojoj jarosti. Krv mi njihova poprska haljine, iskaljah svu odjeću svoju.
I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people there was none with me: for I will tread them in mine anger, and trample them in my fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my raiment.
4 Jer dan osvete bijaše mi u srcu, došla je godina mojeg otkupljenja.
For the day of vengeance is in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed has come.
5 Ogledah se, al' ne bješe pomoćnika! Začudih se, al' ne bješe potpore. Tada mi je moja mišica pomogla i moja me srdžba poduprla.
And I looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered that there was none to uphold: therefore mine own arm brought salvation unto me; and my fury, it upheld me.
6 U gnjevu svom satrijeh narode, u bijesu sve ih izgazih i zemlju polih krvlju njihovom!
And I will tread down the people in mine anger, and make them drunk in my fury, and I will bring down their strength to the earth.
7 Slavit ću ljubav Jahvinu, slavna djela njegova - za sve što nam Jahve učini, za veliku dobrotu domu Izraelovu što nam je iskaza u svojoj samilosti, u obilju svoje ljubavi.
I will mention the loving kindnesses of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD has bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he has bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.
8 Reče: “Dosta, oni su narod moj, sinovi koji se neće iznevjeriti!” I on im posta Spasiteljem u svim njihovim tjeskobama.
For he said, Surely they are my people, children that will not lie: so he was their Saviour.
9 Nije slao poslanika ni anđela nego ih je sam spasio. U svojoj ljubavi i samilosti sam ih je otkupio, podigao ih i nosio u sve dane od davnine.
In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old.
10 Ali se oni odmetnuše, ožalostiše sveti Duh njegov. Zato im je postao neprijatelj i sam je na njih zavojštio.
But they rebelled, and vexed his holy Spirit: therefore he was turned to be their enemy, and he fought against them.
11 Spomenuše se tad davnih dana i sluge njegova Mojsija: “Gdje li je onaj koji izvuče iz vode pastira stada svojega? Gdje je onaj koji udahnu u njega Duh svoj sveti?
Then he remembered the days of old, Moses, and his people, saying, Where is he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of his flock? where is he that put his holy Spirit within him?
12 Koji je Mojsijevu desnicu vodio veličanstveno svojom mišicom, koji vodu pred njima razdvoji i steče sebi ime vječno;
That led them by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name?
13 koji ih provede dnom bezdana kao konja po pustinji i nisu se spoticali?
That led them through the deep, as an horse in the wilderness, that they should not stumble?
14 Poput stoke što silazi u dolinu, Duh Jahvin vodio ih počivalištu. Tako si ti vodio narod svoj i slavno ime sebi stekao.
As a beast goes down into the valley, the Spirit of the LORD caused him to rest: so did you lead your people, to make yourself a glorious name.
15 Pogledaj s nebesa i vidi iz prebivališta svoga svetog i slavnog. Gdje li je ljubomora tvoja i snaga? Zar se susteglo ganuće tvog srca i samilost tvoja prema meni? Ah, sućuti nam svoje ne ustegni,
Look down from heaven, and behold from the habitation of your holiness and of your glory: where is your zeal and your strength, the sounding of your bowels and of your mercies toward me? are they restrained?
16 jer Otac si naš! Abraham nas ne poznaje i ne spominje nas se Izrael; Jahve, ti si naš Otac, Otkupitelj naš - ime ti je oduvijek.
Doubtless you are our father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: you, O LORD, are our father, our redeemer; your name is from everlasting.
17 Zašto, o Jahve, zašto nas puštaš da lutamo daleko od tvojih putova, zašto si dao da nam srce otvrdne da se tebe više ne bojimo? Vrati se, radi slugu svojih i radi plemenÄa što su tvoja baština!
O LORD, why have you made us to go astray from your ways, and hardened our heart from your fear? Return for your servants' sake, the tribes of your inheritance.
18 Zašto bezbožnici gaze tvoje Svetište, a neprijatelji naši blate tvoju svetinju?
The people of your holiness have possessed it but a little while: our adversaries have trodden down your sanctuary.
19 Odavna postadosmo kao oni kojima više ne vladaš i koji tvoje ime više ne nose.
We are yours: you never bare rule over them; they were not called by your name.
