Izaija 65

1 Potražiše me koji ne pitahu za me, nađoše me koji me ne tražahu; rekoh: “Evo me! Evo me!” narodu koji ne prizivaše ime moje.

I am sought by them that asked not for me; I am found by them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, to a nation that was not called by my name.

2 Svagda sam pružao ruku narodu odmetničkom, koji hodi putem zlim, za mislima svojim,

I have spread out my hands all the day to a rebellious people, who walketh in a way that is not good, after their own thoughts;

3 narodu koji me bez prestanka u lice srdi: žrtvuju po vrtovima, kad prinose na opekama,

A people that provoketh me to anger continually to my face; that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense upon altars of brick;

4 na grobovima stanuju i noće na skrovitim mjestima, jedu svinjetinu, meću u zdjele jela nečista.

Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine’s flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;

5 I još govore: “Ukloni se! Ne prilazi mi da te ne posvetim.” Oni su mi dim u nosu, oganj što gori povazdan.

Who say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day.

6 Evo, sve je napisano preda mnom: neću ušutjet' dok im ne platim, dok im ne platim u njedra,

Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom,

7 za bezakonja vaša i vaših otaca, sva zajedno - govori Jahve. Koji su prinosili kad na gorama i pogrđivali me na brežuljcima - izmjerit ću im u krilo plaću za djela prijašnja.

Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the LORD, who have burned incense upon the mountains, and blasphemed me upon the hills: therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom.

8 Ovako govori Jahve: “Kao što o soku u grozdu vele: 'Ne uništavajte ga, u njemu je blagoslov!' tako ću učiniti i ja radi slugu svojih, neću sve uništiti.

Thus saith the LORD, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one saith, Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it: so will I do for my servants’ sake, that I may not destroy them all.

9 Izvest ću iz Jakova potomstvo, a iz Jude baštinika gora svojih; baštinit će ih odabranici moji, i moje će se sluge ondje naseliti.

And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and my elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.

10 Šaron će postati pašnjak ovcama, a nizina akorska počivalište govedima - narodu mojem koji mene traži.

And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have sought me.

11 A vi koji ste Jahvu ostavili, koji ste zaboravili Svetu goru moju, koji pripremate stol Gadu, koji Meniju naljev lijevate,

But ye are they that forsake the LORD, that forget my holy mountain, that prepare a table for that troop, and that furnish the drink offering to that number.

12 za mač sam vas odredio - past ćete ničice da vas kolju. Jer zvao sam vas, a vi se niste odazvali, govorio sam, a vi niste slušali, nego ste činili što je zlo u očima mojim, izabirali ste što mi nije po volji.”

Therefore will I number you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spoke, ye did not hear; but did evil before my eyes, and did choose that in which I delighted not.

13 Stog ovako Jahve Gospod govori: “Evo, sluge će moje jesti, a vi ćete gladovati. Evo, sluge će moje piti, a vi ćete žeđati. Evo, sluge će se moje veseliti, a vi ćete se stidjeti.

Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be ashamed:

14 Evo, sluge će se moje radovati od sreće u srcu, a vi ćete vikati od boli u srcu i kukati duše slomljene!

Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall wail for vexation of spirit.

15 Ime ćete svoje ostaviti za kletvu mojim izabranicima: 'Tako te ubio Jahve!' A sluge svoje on će zvati drugim imenom.

And ye shall leave your name for a curse to my chosen: for the Lord GOD shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name:

16 Tko se u zemlji bude blagoslivljao, nek' se blagoslivlje Bogom vjernim. I tko se u zemlji bude kleo, nek' se kune Bogom vjernim. Jer prijašnje će nevolje biti zaboravljene, od očiju mojih bit će sakrivene.

That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from my eyes.

17 Jer, evo, ja stvaram nova nebesa i novu zemlju. Prijašnje se više neće spominjati niti će vam na um dolaziti.

For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.

18 Veselite se i dovijeka kličite zbog onoga što ja stvaram; jer, evo, od Jeruzalema stvaram klicanje, od naroda njegova radost.

But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.

19 I klicat ću nad Jeruzalemom, radovat' se nad svojim narodom. U njemu više neće čuti ni plača ni vapaja.

And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.

20 U njemu više neće biti novorođenčeta koje živi malo dana ni starca koji ne bi godina svojih navršio: najmlađi će umrijet' kao stogodišnjak, a tko ne doživi stotinu godina prokletim će se smatrati.

There shall be no more there an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed.

21 Gradit će kuće i stanovat' u njima, saditi vinograde i uživati rod njihov.

And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.

22 Neće se više graditi da drugi stanuju ni saditi da drugi uživa: vijek naroda moga bit će k'o vijek drveta, izabranici moji dugo će uživati plodove ruku svojih.

They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and my elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.

23 Neće se zalud mučiti i neće rađati za smrt preranu, jer će oni s potomcima svojim biti rod blagoslovljenika Jahvinih.

They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, and their offspring with them.

24 Prije nego me zazovu, ja ću im se odazvat'; još će govoriti, a ja ću ih već uslišiti.

And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.

25 Vuk i jagnje zajedno će pasti, lav će jesti slamu k'o govedo; al' će se zmija prahom hraniti. Nitko neće činiti zla ni štete na svoj Svetoj gori mojoj” - govori Jahve.

The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the ox: and dust shall be the serpent’s food. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the LORD.
