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 inquired of by those who didn’t ask. I am found by those who didn’t seek me. I said, ‘See me, see 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 day to a rebellious people, who walk 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 who provoke me to my face continually, sacrificing in gardens, and burning incense on bricks;
4 na grobovima stanuju i noće na skrovitim mjestima, jedu svinjetinu, meću u zdjele jela nečista.
who sit among the graves, and spend nights in secret places; who eat pig’s meat, 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, ‘Stay by yourself, don’t come near to me, for I am holier than you.’ These are smoke in my nose, a fire that burns all 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 repay, yes, I will repay 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 own iniquities and the iniquities of your fathers together”, says the LORD, “who have burned incense on the mountains, and blasphemed me on the hills. Therefore I will first measure their 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.
The LORD says, “As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one says, ‘Don’t destroy it, for a blessing is in it:’ so I will 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.
I will bring offspring out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains. My chosen will inherit it, and my servants will dwell there.
10 Šaron će postati pašnjak ovcama, a nizina akorska počivalište govedima - narodu mojem koji mene traži.
Sharon will be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for herds to lie down in, for my people who 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 you who forsake the LORD, who forget my holy mountain, who prepare a table for Fortune, and who fill up mixed wine to Destiny;
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.”
I will destine you to the sword, and you will all bow down to the slaughter; because when I called, you didn’t answer. When I spoke, you didn’t listen; but you did that which was evil in my eyes, and chose that in which I didn’t delight.”
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 the Lord GOD says, “Behold, my servants will eat, but you will be hungry; behold, my servants will drink, but you will be thirsty. Behold, my servants will rejoice, but you will be disappointed.
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 will sing for joy of heart, but you will cry for sorrow of heart, and will wail for anguish of spirit.
15 Ime ćete svoje ostaviti za kletvu mojim izabranicima: 'Tako te ubio Jahve!' A sluge svoje on će zvati drugim imenom.
You will leave your name for a curse to my chosen, and the Lord GOD will kill you. He will 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.
so that he who blesses himself in the earth will bless himself in the God of truth; and he who swears in the earth will swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hidden 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 things will 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 glad and rejoice forever in that which I create; for, behold, I create Jerusalem to be a delight, 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.
I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and delight in my people; and the voice of weeping and the voice of crying will be heard in her no more.
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.
“No more will there be an infant who only lives a few days, nor an old man who has not filled his days; for the child will die one hundred years old, and the sinner being one hundred years old will be accursed.
21 Gradit će kuće i stanovat' u njima, saditi vinograde i uživati rod njihov.
They will build houses and inhabit them. They will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
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 will not build and another inhabit. They will not plant and another eat; for the days of my people will be like the days of a tree, and my chosen will 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 will not labor in vain nor give birth for calamity; for they are the offspring of the LORD’s blessed and their descendants with them.
24 Prije nego me zazovu, ja ću im se odazvat'; još će govoriti, a ja ću ih već uslišiti.
It will happen 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 will feed together. The lion will eat straw like the ox. Dust will be the serpent’s food. They will not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain,” says the LORD.
