Izaiáš 65
1 Dal jsem se najíti těm, kteříž se na mne neptávali, nalezen jsem od těch, kteříž mne nehledali, a národu, kterýž se nenazýval jménem mým, řekl jsem: Teď jsem, teď jsem.
[This is what Yahweh said]: “I was ready to reply [to my people], but no one requested me [to help them]. I was ready to help [even] those who did not call out to me. I continued to say, ‘I am here [to help you]!’
2 Rozprostíral jsem ruce své na každý den k lidu zpurnému, kteříž chodí cestou nedobrou za myšlénkami svými,
[It is as though] I have continually held out my arms [to show that I am ready to help] my people who rebel [against me], and who [continually] do the evil things that they want to do.
3 K lidu, kteříž zjevně popouzejí mne ustavičně, obětujíce v zahradách, a kadíce na cihlách,
They boldly continue to do things that cause me to be angry: They offer sacrifices [to their idols] in their gardens, and they burn incense [to them] on [altars made of] bricks.
4 Kteříž sedají při hrobích, a při svých modlách nocují, kteříž jedí maso sviňské, a polívku nečistého z nádob svých,
They secretly remain awake at night in burial caves, [talking with the spirits of] ([dead people/their ancestors]). They eat the meat of pigs, and their pots are full of [other] meat that is [also] unacceptable to me.
5 Říkajíce: Táhni preč, nepřistupuj ke mně, nebo světější jsem nežli ty. Tiť jsou dymem v chřípích mých a ohněm hořícím přes celý den.
[Then] they say [to others], ‘Stay away from me; do not come near me, because I am very holy, [with the result that you should not touch me].’ People like that are [like] [MET] smoke in my nose [from] a fire that burns continually.
6 Aj, zapsáno jest to přede mnou: Nebuduť mlčeti, nýbrž nahradím a odplatím do lůna jejich,
I have written [a record of all the evil things that they have done]. And I will not do nothing about all those things; I will certainly punish them
7 Za nepravosti vaše, a spolu za nepravosti otců vašich, praví Hospodin, kteříž kadívali na horách, a na pahrbcích v lehkost uvodili mne; pročež odměřím za dílo jejich předešlé do lůna jejich.
for the sins that they and their ancestors have committed. They have mocked/insulted me by burning incense [to their idols] on the hilltops. So I will punish them like they deserve for doing those things.”
8 Takto praví Hospodin: Jako někdo nalezna víno v hroznu, i řekl by: Nekaz ho, proto že požehnání jest v něm, tak i já učiním pro služebníky své, že nevyhladím všech těchto.
This is [also] what Yahweh said: “When there is a cluster of nice grapes on a vine, people do not throw them away, because they know that there is good juice in those grapes. Similarly, because there are some people [in Judah] who faithfully serve/worship me, I will not get rid of all of them.
9 Nebo vyvedu z Jákoba símě, a z Judy toho, kterýž by dědičně obdržel hory mé, i budou ji dědičně držeti vyvolení moji, a služebníci moji bydliti budou tam.
I will spare some of the descendants of Jacob who are living on the hills of Judah. I have chosen them, and they will possess that land; they will worship/serve me, and they will live there.
10 Lid pak můj, kteříž by mne hledali, budou míti Sáron za pastviště ovcím, a údolí Achor za odpočivadlo skotům.
[Then all the land from the] Sharon [Plain near the Mediterranean Sea] and [as far east as] Achor Valley [near Jericho] will become pastureland where their cattle and sheep will rest.
11 Ale vás, kteříž opouštíte Hospodina, kteříž se zapomínáte na horu svatosti mé, kteříž strojíte vojsku tomu stůl, a kteříž vykonáváte tomu počtu oběti,
But [it will be different] for you who have abandoned me, you who do not worship me on [Zion], my sacred hill, you who worship Gad and Meni, [the gods who you think will bring you] good luck and good fortune.
12 Vás, pravím, sečtu pod meč, tak že všickni vy k zabití na kolena padati budete, proto že, když jsem volal, neohlásili jste se, mluvil jsem, a neslyšeli jste, ale činili jste to, což zlého jest před očima mýma, a to, čehož neoblibuji, vyvolili jste.
[It is I, not Meni, who will decide/say what will happen to you]; you will all [be slaughtered by] swords. [That will happen] because you did not answer when I called out to you. I spoke to you, but you did not pay attention. Instead, you did things that I said are evil; you chose to do things that do not please me.
13 A protož takto dí Panovník Hospodin: Aj, služebníci moji jísti budou, vy pak hlad trpěti budete: aj, služebníci moji píti budou, vy pak žízniti budete; aj, služebníci moji veseliti se budou, vy pak zahanbeni budete.
I, Yahweh the Lord, will give to those who worship and obey me things to eat and drink, and they will be happy; but [all] you evil people will be hungry and thirsty, and you will be [sad and] disgraced.
14 Aj, služebníci moji prozpěvovati budou pro radost srdce, vy pak křičeti budete pro bolest srdce, a pro setření ducha kvíliti budete,
Those who worship and obey me will sing joyfully, but you [evil people] will wail loudly because you will be suffering in your inner beings.
15 A zanecháte jména svého k proklínání vyvoleným mým, když vás pomorduje Panovník Hospodin, služebníky pak své nazůve jménem jiným.
Those whom I have chosen will use your names when they curse people; [I], Yahweh the Lord, will get rid of you. But I will give to those who worship and obey me a new name [that they will use when they bless people].
16 Ten, kterýž bude sobě požehnání dávati na zemi, požehnání dávati sobě bude v Bohu pravém, a kdož přisahati bude na zemi, přisahati bude skrze Boha pravého; v zapomenutí zajisté dána budou ta ssoužení první, a budou skryta od očí mých.
The people in this land have had many troubles, but I will cause those troubles to occur no more. Therefore those who ask me to bless them and those who solemnly promise to do something should never forget that I am God, who faithfully [do what I promise to do].”
17 Nebo aj, já stvořím nebesa nová a zemi novou, a nebudou připomínány první věci, aniž vstoupí na srdce.
“Note this: [Some day] I will create a new heaven and a new earth. [They will be very wonderful, with the result that] you will no longer think about all [the troubles] you had previously.
18 Anobrž radujte se a veselte se na věky věků z toho, což já stvořím; nebo aj, já stvořím Jeruzalém k plésání, a lid jeho k radosti.
Be glad and always rejoice because of what I will do: Jerusalem will be a place where [people] rejoice; the people who live there will always be happy.
19 I já plésati budu v Jeruzalémě, a radovati se v lidu svém, aniž se více bude slýchati v něm hlasu pláče, aneb hlasu křiku.
I will rejoice about Jerusalem, and I will be delighted with my people. [People] will no longer weep or cry because of being distressed.
20 Nebude tam více žádného v věku dětinském, ani starce, kterýž by dnů svých nevyplnil; nebo dítě ve stu letech umře, hříšníku pak, by došel i sta let, zlořečeno bude.
No child will die when it is still an infant; all people will live until they are very old. [People will consider that] anyone who is 100 years old is still young; [they will consider that] anyone who dies who is younger than that has been cursed.
21 Nastavějí též domů, a bydliti budou v nich, i vinice štěpovati budou, a jísti budou ovoce jejich.
My people will build houses and [then] live in them. They will plant vineyards and then eat grapes from those vineyards.
22 Nebudou stavěti tak, aby jiný bydlil, nebudou štěpovati, aby jiný jedl; nebo jako dnové dřeva budou dnové lidu mého, a díla rukou svých do zvetšení užívati budou vyvolení moji.
As for the houses that they build, no one will [take those houses away from them and] live in them. No one will take a vineyard away from its owner. My chosen people will live a long time, like trees do, and they will enjoy what they have accomplished— [the houses that they have built and the crops that they have planted].
23 Nebudouť pracovati nadarmo, aniž ploditi budou k strachu; nebo budou símě požehnaných od Hospodina, i potomkové jejich s nimi.
They will not work hard in vain, and their children will not die from some (calamity/terrible thing happening to them). I will [certainly] bless their children and their grandchildren.
24 Nadto stane se, že prvé než volati budou, já se ohlásím; ještě mluviti budou, a já vyslyším.
Before they call to me [to help them], I will answer; I will answer their prayers while they are still praying [for me to do something for them].
25 Vlk s beránkem budou se pásti spolu, a lev jako vůl bude jísti plevy, hadu pak za pokrm bude prach. Neuškodíť, aniž zahubí na vší mé hoře svaté, praví Hospodin.
No one will be harmed or injured anywhere on [Zion], my sacred hill: Wolves and lambs will eat grass together [peacefully]; lions will eat hay like oxen do, [and they will not attack people]. Snakes will [not hurt anyone; they will lie on the ground and] eat [only] dirt. [That is surely what it will be like because I], Yahweh, have said it.”
