< Izaiáš 37 >

1 I stalo se, když to uslyšel král Ezechiáš, že roztrhl roucho své, a oděl se žíní, a všel do domu Hospodinova.
And on hearing it Hezekiah took off his robe and put on haircloth and went into the house of the Lord.
2 I poslal Eliakima správce domu, a Sobnu písaře, a starší z kněží, oblečené v žíně k Izaiášovi proroku, synu Amosovu.
And he sent Eliakim, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and the chief priests, dressed in haircloth, to Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz.
3 Kteříž řekli jemu: Toto praví Ezechiáš: Den úzkosti a útržky i rouhání jest den tento, proto že se přiblížil plod k vyjití, ale není síly ku porodu.
And they said to him, Hezekiah says, This day is a day of trouble and punishment and shame: for the children are ready to come to birth, but there is no strength to give birth to them.
4 Ó by slyšel Hospodin Bůh tvůj slova Rabsakova, jehož poslal král Assyrský pán jeho, aby utrhal Bohu živému, a pomstil Hospodin Bůh tvůj těch slov, kteráž slyšel. Protož pozdvihni modlitby za tento ostatek lidu, kterýž se nalézá.
It may be that the Lord your God will give ear to the words of the Rab-shakeh, whom the king of Assyria, his master, has sent to say evil things against the living God, and will make his words come to nothing: so make your prayer for the rest of the people.
5 I přišli služebníci krále Ezechiáše k Izaiášovi.
So the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
6 Jimž odpověděl Izaiáš: Toto povíte pánu svému: Takto praví Hospodin: Nestrachuj se slov těch, kteráž jsi slyšel, jimiž se mně rouhali služebníci krále Assyrského.
And Isaiah said to them, This is what you are to say to your master: The Lord says, Be not troubled by the words which the servants of the king of Assyria have said against me in your hearing.
7 Aj, já pustím naň vítr, aby uslyše pověst, navrátil se do země své, a učiním to, že padne od meče v zemi své.
See, I will put a spirit into him, and bad news will come to his ears, and he will go back to his land; and there I will have him put to death.
8 Navrátiv se pak Rabsaces, nalezl krále Assyrského, an dobývá Lebna. Nebo uslyšel, (pročež odtrhl od Lachis),
So the Rab-shakeh went back, and when he got there the king of Assyria was making war against Libnah: for it had come to his ears that the king of Assyria had gone away from Lachish.
9 Uslyšel, pravím, o Tirhákovi králi Mouřenínském, ano pravili: Táhne, aby bojoval s tebou. A však uslyšev to, vždy poslal posly své k Ezechiášovi s těmito slovy:
And when news came to him that Tirhakah, king of Ethiopia, had made an attack on him, ... And he sent representatives to Hezekiah, king of Judah, saying,
10 Takto povíte Ezechiášovi králi Judskému, řkouce: Nechť tebe nesvodí Bůh tvůj, v němž ty doufáš, říkaje: Nebude dán Jeruzalém v ruku krále Assyrského.
This is what you are to say to Hezekiah, king of Judah: Let not your God, in whom is your faith, give you a false hope, saying, Jerusalem will not be given into the hands of the king of Assyria.
11 Aj, slyšels, co jsou učinili králové Assyrští všechněm zemím, pohubivše je, a ty bys měl býti vysvobozen?
No doubt the story has come to your ears of what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, putting them to the curse: and will you be kept safe from their fate?
12 Zdaliž jsou je vysvobodili bohové těch národů, kteréž zahladili předkové moji, Gozana, Charana, Resefa a syny z Eden, kteříž byli v Telasar?
Did the gods of the nations keep safe those on whom my fathers sent destruction, Gozan and Haran and Rezeph, and the children of Eden who were in Telassar?
13 Kde jest král Emat, a král Arfad, a král města Sefarvaim, Ana i Ava?
Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the town of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivva?
14 Protož vzav Ezechiáš list z ruky poslů, přečtl jej a vstoupiv do domu Hospodinova, rozvinul jej Ezechiáš před Hospodinem.
And Hezekiah took the letter from the hands of those who had come with it; and after reading it, Hezekiah went up to the house of the Lord, opening the letter there before the Lord,
15 A modlil se Ezechiáš Hospodinu, řka:
And he made prayer to the Lord, saying,
16 Hospodine zástupů, Bože Izraelský, kterýž sedíš nad cherubíny, ty jsi sám Bůh všech království země, ty jsi učinil nebe i zemi.
O Lord of armies, the God of Israel, seated between the winged ones, you only are the God of all the kingdoms of the earth; you have made heaven and earth.
17 Nakloniž, Hospodine, ucha svého a uslyš; otevři, Hospodine, oči své a pohleď; slyš, pravím, všecka slova Senacheribova, kterýž poslal k činění útržek Bohu živému.
Let your ear be turned to us, O Lord; let your eyes be open, O Lord, and see: take note of all the words of Sennacherib who has sent men to say evil against the living God.
18 Takť jest, Hospodine, žeť jsou pohubili králové Assyrští všecky ty krajiny i zemi jejich,
Truly, O Lord, the kings of Assyria have made waste all the nations and their lands,
19 A uvrhli bohy jejich do ohně; nebo nebyli bohové, ale dílo ruku lidských, dřevo a kámen, protož zahladili je.
And have given their gods to the fire: for they were no gods, but wood and stone, the work of men's hands; so they have given them to destruction.
20 A nyní, Hospodine Bože náš, vysvoboď nás z ruky jeho, aťby poznala všecka království země, že jsi ty Hospodin sám.
But now, O Lord our God, give us salvation from his hand, so that it may be clear to all the kingdoms of the earth that you, and you only, are the Lord.
21 Tedy poslal Izaiáš syn Amosův k Ezechiášovi, řka: Toto praví Hospodin Bůh Izraelský: Zač jsi mi se modlil strany Senacheriba krále Assyrského,
Then Isaiah, the son of Amoz, sent to Hezekiah, saying, The Lord, the God of Israel, says, The prayer you have made to me against Sennacherib, king of Assyria, has come to my ears.
22 Totoť jest slovo, kteréž mluvil Hospodin o něm: Pohrdá tebou, a posmívá se tobě panna, dcera Sionská, potřásá hlavou za tebou dcera Jeruzalémská.
This is the word which the Lord has said about him: In the eyes of the virgin daughter of Zion you are shamed and laughed at; the daughter of Jerusalem has made sport of you.
23 Kohož jsi zhaněl? A komus se rouhal? A proti komus povýšil hlasu, a pozdvihl zhůru očí svých? Proti Svatému Izraelskému.
Against whom have you said evil and bitter things? and against whom has your voice been loud and your eyes lifted up? even against the Holy One of Israel.
24 Skrze služebníky své utrhal jsi Pánu, a řekl jsi: Ve množství vozů svých já jsem vytáhl na hory vysoké, na stráně Libánské, a zpodtínám vysoké cedry jeho, i spanilé jedle jeho, a vejdu na nejvyšší kraj jeho do lesů a výborných rolí jeho.
You have sent your servants with evil words against the Lord, and have said, With all my war-carriages I have come up to the top of the mountains, to the inmost parts of Lebanon; and its tall cedars will be cut down, and the best trees of its woods: I will come up into his highest places, into his thick woods.
25 Já jsem vykopal a pil vody; nebo jsem vysušil nohama svýma všecky potoky míst obležených.
I have made water-holes and taken their waters, and with my foot I have made all the rivers of Egypt dry.
26 Zdalis neslyšel, že jsem již to dávno učinil, a ode dnů starých to sformoval? Nyní pak k tomu přivozuji, aby v poušť a v hromady rumu města hrazená obrácena byla,
Has it not come to your ears how I did it long before, purposing it in times long past? Now I have given effect to my design, so that by you strong towns might be turned into masses of broken walls.
27 A jejich obyvatelé ruce oslablé majíc, předěšeni a zahanbeni jsouc, byli jako bylina polní, a zelina vzcházející, jako tráva na střechách, a osení rzí zkažené, prvé než by dorostlo.
This is why their townsmen had no power, they were broken and put to shame; they were like the grass of the field, or a green plant; like the grass on the house-tops, which a cold wind makes waste.
28 Sedání pak tvé, a vycházení tvé i vcházení tvé znám, i vzteklost tvou proti sobě.
But I have knowledge of your getting up and your resting, of your going out and your coming in.
29 Poněvadž ty se vztěkáš proti mně, a tvé zpouzení přišlo v uši mé, protož vpustím udici svou v chřípě tvé, a udidla svá v ústa tvá, a odvedu tě zase tou cestou, kterouž jsi přišel.
Because your wrath against me and your pride have come to my ears, I will put my hook in your nose and my cord in your lips, and I will make you go back by the way you came.
30 A toto měj za znamení: Budete jísti roku prvního, co samo od sebe zroste, též druhého roku, což se samo od sebe zrodí, třetího pak roku budete síti a žíti a štěpovati vinice, a jísti ovoce jejich.
And this will be the sign to you: you will get your food this year from what comes up of itself, and in the second year from the produce of the same; and in the third year you will put in your seed, and get in the grain, and make vine-gardens, and take of their fruit.
31 Ostatek zajisté domu Judova, kterýž pozůstal, vpustí zase kořeny své hluboce, a vydá užitek zhůru.
And those of Judah who are still living will again take root in the earth, and give fruit.
32 Nebo z Jeruzaléma vyjdou ostatkové, a zachovaní z hory Siona. Horlivost Hospodina zástupů učiní to.
For from Jerusalem those who have been kept safe will go out, and those who are still living will go out of Mount Zion: by the fixed purpose of the Lord of armies this will be done.
33 A protož toto praví Hospodin o králi Assyrském: Nevejdeť do města tohoto, aniž sem střely vstřelí, aniž na ně dotrou pavézníci, aniž udělají u něho náspu.
For this cause the Lord says about the king of Assyria, He will not come into this town, or send an arrow against it; he will not come before it with arms, or put up an earthwork against it.
34 Cestou, kterouž přitáhl, zase navrátí se, a do města tohoto nevejde, praví Hospodin.
By the way he came he will go back, and he will not get into this town.
35 Nebo chrániti budu města tohoto, abych je zachoval pro sebe a pro Davida služebníka svého.
For I will keep this town safe, for my honour, and for the honour of my servant David.
36 Tedy vyšel anděl Hospodinův, a zbil v vojště Assyrském sto osmdesáte a pět tisíců. I vstali velmi ráno, a aj, všickni mrtví.
And the angel of the Lord went out and put to death in the army of the Assyrians a hundred and eighty-five thousand men: and when the people got up early in the morning, there was nothing to be seen but dead bodies.
37 A tak odjel, anobrž utekl, a navrátil se Senacherib král Assyrský, a bydlil v Ninive.
Sennacherib, king of Assyria, went back to his place at Nineveh.
38 I stalo se, když se klaněl v chrámě Nizrocha boha svého, že Adramelech a Sarasar, synové jeho, zabili jej mečem, a utekli do země Ararat. I kraloval Esarchaddon syn jeho místo něho.
And it came about, when he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that his sons Adrammelech and Sharezer put him to death with the sword, and they went in flight into the land of Ararat. And Esar-haddon, his son, became king in his place.
