Izaiáš 19
1 Břímě Egyptských. Aj, Hospodin béře se na oblaku lehkém, a přitáhne na Egypt. I pohnou se modly Egyptské před tváří jeho, a srdce Egyptských rozplyne se u prostřed něho.
[I received] this message [from Yahweh] about Egypt: “Listen to this! I, Yahweh, am coming to Egypt, riding on a fast-moving cloud. The idols in Egypt will tremble when [I appear], and the people of Egypt will be extremely afraid [IDM].
2 Nebo spustím Egyptské s Egyptskými, tak že bojovati budou jeden každý proti bratru svému, a přítel proti příteli svému, město proti městu, království proti království.
I will cause the people of Egypt to fight against each other: men will fight against their brothers, neighbors will fight against each other, people of one city will fight against the people of another city, people of one province will fight against the people of another province.
3 A na nic přijde duch Egyptských u prostřed něho, a radu jeho sehltím. I raditi se budou modl a kouzedlníků a zaklinačů a hadačů.
The people of Egypt will become very discouraged, and I will cause their plans not to be successful. They will plead with idols and sorcerers and those who talk with spirits of dead people to tell them what they should do.
4 Dám zajisté Egypt v ruku pánů ukrutných, a král přísný panovati bude nad nimi, praví Pán, Hospodin zástupů.
Then I will enable someone who will treat them very cruelly to become their king [DOU].” That is what I, the Commander of the armies of angels, say.
5 A vymizejí vody z moře, i řeka osákne a vyschne.
[Some day] the water in the [Nile] River will dry up, and the riverbed will become very dry [DOU].
6 I vzdálí se řeky, opadnou a vyschnou potokové Egyptští, třtí i rákosí usvadne.
The branches of the river will all dry up [DOU] The canals along the river will stink because of the rotting reeds and (bulrushes/tall grass).
7 Tráva okolo potoka a při pramenu potoka, i vše, což se seje při potoku, uschne, zmizí a ztratí se.
All the plants along the river and all the crops will dry up; then they will blow away and disappear.
8 I budou žalostiti rybáři, a kvíliti všickni, kteříž mecí do potoka udici; a kteříž rozstírají síti na vody, na nouzi přijdou.
The fishermen will throw into the river lines with hooks on them and nets, and then they will groan and be very discouraged; they will be sad [because there will be no fish in the river].
9 Zahanbeni budou i ti, kteříž dělají věci lněné a hedbávné, a kteříž tkají kment.
Those who weave cloth from flax will not know what to do, because there will be no thread for them to weave.
10 Nebo síti jeho budou zkaženy, i všickni dělající rybníky pro ryby.
They will all despair and be very discouraged.
11 Jistě žeť jsou blázni knížata Soan, moudrých rádců Faraonových rada zhlupěla. Jakž říkati můžete Faraonovi: Syn moudrých já jsem, syn králů starožitných?
The officials in Zoan [city in northern Egypt] are foolish. The advice that they gave to the king was worthless. Why do they continue to tell the king that they are wise, that they are descendants of wise kings who lived long ago [RHQ]?
12 Kdež jsou, kde ti moudří tvoji? Nechať oznámí nyní tobě, vědí-li, co uložil Hospodin zástupů o Egyptu.
King, (where are your wise counselors now?/You have no wise counselors now!) [RHQ] If you had any wise counselors, they could tell you what the Commander of the armies of angels has planned to do to Egypt [SAR]!
13 Zbláznila se knížata Soan, podvedena jsou knížata Nof, svedli Egypt přednější v pokolení jeho.
[Yes], the officials of Zoan have become foolish, and the leaders in Memphis [city in northern Egypt] have deceived themselves. [All] leaders of the people have (caused their people to do wrong things/led their people astray).
14 Hospodin pustil mezi ně ducha závrativého, i spraví to, že zbloudí Egypt při všelikém předsevzetí svém, tak jako bloudí ožralec při vývratku svém.
Yahweh has caused them to be very foolish, with the result that in everything that they do, [it is as though the people of] Egypt stagger like [SIM] a drunken person staggers [and slips] in his own vomit.
15 Aniž bude dílo v Egyptě, kteréž by učinila hlava neb ocas, ratolest aneb sítí.
There is no one in Egypt, rich or poor, important or unimportant, [who will be able to help them].
16 V ten den bude Egypt podobný ženám; nebo strašiti se a děsiti bude před zdvižením ruky Hospodina zástupů, kterouž on zdvihne proti němu.
At that time, the people of Egypt will be [as helpless] as [SIM] women. They will tremble, being terrified [because they know that] the Commander of the armies of angels has raised his fist, [ready to strike/punish them].
17 A budeť země Judská Egyptu k hrůzi; každý, kdož zpomene na ni, strašiti se bude, pro radu Hospodina zástupů, kterouž zavřel o něm.
The people of Egypt will be afraid of the people of Judah, and anyone who mentions Judah to them will cause them to be terrified, because [that will remind them] of what Yahweh, the Commander of the armies of angels, is planning to do to them.
18 V ten den bude pět měst v zemi Egyptské, mluvících jazykem Kananejským, a přisahajících skrze Hospodina zástupů, jedno pak nazváno bude město zpuštění.
At that time, [people in] five cities in Egypt will solemnly declare that they will serve Yahweh. They will [learn to] speak the Hebrew language. One of those cities will be called ‘City of the Sun’.
19 V ten den bude oltář Hospodinův u prostřed země Egyptské, a sloup při pomezí jejím Hospodinu;
At that time, there will be an altar for worshiping Yahweh in the center of Egypt, and there will be a (pillar/large rock) to honor Yahweh at the border [between Egypt and Israel].
20 Bude, pravím, na znamení a na svědectví Hospodinu zástupů v zemi Egyptské. A když volati budou k Hospodinu příčinou těch, kteříž by je ssužovali, tedy pošle jim spasitele a kníže, i vysvobodí je.
That will be a sign to indicate that the Commander of the armies of angels is worshiped in the land of Egypt. And when the people cry out to Yahweh to help them because others are (oppressing them/causing them to suffer), he will send to them someone who will defend and rescue them.
21 I bude známý Hospodin Egyptským; nebo poznají Egyptští Hospodina v ten den, a ctíti jej budou obětmi a dary, a činiti budou sliby Hospodinu, i plniti.
Yahweh will enable the people of Egypt to know who he is, and at that time they will have a close relationship with Yahweh and worship him and bring to him offerings of grain and other sacrifices. They will solemnly promise to do things for Yahweh, and they will do what they promise.
22 A tak bíti bude Hospodin Egypt, aby zbije, uzdravil jej; nebo obrátí se k Hospodinu, a on je vyslyší a uzdraví.
After Yahweh has punished Egypt, he will cause their troubles to end. The people of Egypt will turn to Yahweh, and he will listen when they plead to him [for help], and he will cause their troubles to cease.
23 V ten den bude silnice z Egypta do Assyrie, i budou choditi Assyrští do Egypta, a Egyptští do Assyrie, a sloužiti budou Egyptští s Assyrskými Hospodinu.
At that time, there will be a highway between Egypt and Assyria. [As a result], the people of Egypt will [be able to] travel [easily] to Assyria, and the people of Assyria [will be able to travel easily] to Egypt. And the people of both countries will worship [Yahweh].
24 V ten den bude Izrael Egyptským a Assyrským jako třetí z nich, i budou požehnaní u prostřed země.
And Israel will be their ally. All three nations will be [friendly to] each other, and the people of Israel will be a blessing to the people of the entire world.
25 Nebo požehná jim Hospodin zástupů, řka: Požehnaný lid můj Egyptský, a dílo rukou mých Assur, i dědictví mé Izrael.
The Commander of the armies of angels will bless them, saying, “[You people of] Egypt are now my people. You people of Assyria, I have established your country. You people of Israel are the people whom I have chosen to belong to me.”
