Isaiah 10
1 Woe to those who decree unrighteous decrees, and to the writers who write oppressive decrees
Teško onima koji postavljaju zakone nepravedne i koji pišu nepravdu,
2 to deprive the needy of justice, and to rob the poor among my people of their rights, that widows may be their plunder, and that they may make the fatherless their prey!
Da odbiju od suda uboge, i da otimaju pravicu siromasima naroda mojega, da bi im plijen bile udovice i sirote grabež.
3 What will you do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which will come from afar? To whom will you flee for help? Where will you leave your wealth?
A što æete èiniti u dan pohoðenja i pogibli koja æe doæi izdaleka? kome æete pribjeæi za pomoæ? gdje li æete ostaviti slavu svoju?
4 They will only bow down under the prisoners, and will fall under the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
Da se ne bi unizila meðu roblje i meðu pobijene pala? Kod svega toga neæe se odvratiti gnjev njegov, nego æe ruka njegova još biti podignuta.
5 Alas Assyrian, the rod of my anger, the staff in whose hand is my indignation!
Teško Asiru, šibi gnjeva mojega, ako i jest palica u ruci njegovoj moja jarost.
6 I will send him against a profane nation, and against the people who anger me I will give him a command to take the plunder and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets.
Na narod licemjerni poslaæu ga, i zapovjediæu mu za narod na koji se gnjevim, da plijeni i otima, i da ga izgazi kao blato na ulicama.
7 However, he does not mean so, neither does his heart think so; but it is in his heart to destroy, and to cut off not a few nations.
Ali on neæe tako misliti i srce njegovo neæe tako suditi, nego mu je u srcu da zatre i istrijebi mnoge narode.
8 For he says, “Are not all of my princes kings?
Jer æe reæi: knezovi moji nijesu li svi carevi?
9 Is not Calno like Carchemish? Is not Hamath like Arpad? Is not Samaria like Damascus?”
Nije li Halan kao Harhemis? nije li Emat kao Arfad? nije li Samarija kao Damasak?
10 As my hand has found the kingdoms of the idols, whose engraved images exceeded those of Jerusalem and of Samaria,
Kako je ruka moja našla carstva lažnijeh bogova, kojih likovi bijahu jaèi od Jerusalimskih i Samarijskih,
11 shall I not, as I have done to Samaria and her idols, so do to Jerusalem and her idols?
Neæu li uèiniti Jerusalimu i njegovijem lažnijem bogovima onako kako sam uèinio Samariji i njezinijem lažnijem bogovima?
12 Therefore it will happen that when the Lord has performed his whole work on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the willful proud heart of the king of Assyria, and the insolence of his arrogant looks.
Ali kad svrši Gospod sve djelo svoje na gori Sionskoj i u Jerusalimu, tada æu obiæi plod ohologa srca cara Asirskoga i slavu ponositijeh oèiju njegovijeh.
13 For he has said, “By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom, for I have understanding. I have removed the boundaries of the peoples, and have robbed their treasures. Like a valiant man I have brought down their rulers.
Jer reèe: krjepošæu ruke svoje uèinih i mudrošæu svojom, jer sam razuman; i premjestih meðe narodima i blago njihovo zaplijenih i kao junak oborih stanovnike.
14 My hand has found the riches of the peoples like a nest, and like one gathers eggs that are abandoned, I have gathered all the earth. There was no one who moved their wing, or that opened their mouth, or chirped.”
I ruka moja naðe kao gnijezdo bogatstvo u naroda, i kako se kupe jajca ostavljena tako pokupih svu zemlju, i ne bi nikoga da makne krilom ili da otvori usta i pisne.
15 Should an ax brag against him who chops with it? Should a saw exalt itself above him who saws with it? As if a rod should lift those who lift it up, or as if a staff should lift up someone who is not wood.
Hoæe li se sjekira velièati nad onijem koji njom sijeèe? hoæe li se pila razmetati nad onijem koji njom radi? kao da bi prut mahao onijem koji ga digne, kao da bi se hvalio štap da nije od drveta.
16 Therefore the Lord, GOD of Armies, will send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory a burning will be kindled like the burning of fire.
Zato æe Gospod, Gospod nad vojskama, pustiti na pretile njegove mršu, i slavu æe njegovu potpaliti da gori kao oganj.
17 The light of Israel will be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame; and it will burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day.
Jer æe vidjelo Izrailjevo biti oganj, i svetac æe njegov biti plamen, i upaliæe i sažeæi trnje njegovo i èkalj njegov u jedan dan.
18 He will consume the glory of his forest and of his fruitful field, both soul and body. It will be as when a standard bearer faints.
I krasotu šume njegove i njive njegove, od duše do tijela, uništiæe, i biæe kao bjegunac kad iznemogne.
19 The remnant of the trees of his forest shall be few, so that a child could write their number.
I što ostane drveta šume njegove, biæe malo, da bi ih dijete moglo popisati.
20 It will come to pass in that day that the remnant of Israel, and those who have escaped from the house of Jacob will no more again lean on him who struck them, but shall lean on the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.
I u to vrijeme ostatak Izrailjev i koji se izbave u domu Jakovljevu neæe se više oslanjati na onoga ko ih bije, nego æe se oslanjati na Gospoda sveca Izrailjeva istinom.
21 A remnant will return, even the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty God.
Ostatak æe se obratiti, ostatak Jakovljev, k Bogu silnome.
22 For though your people, Israel, are like the sand of the sea, only a remnant of them will return. A destruction is determined, overflowing with righteousness.
Jer ako bude naroda tvojega, Izrailju, kao pijeska morskoga, ostatak æe se njegov obratiti. Pogibao je odreðena, razliæe se pravda.
23 For the Lord, GOD of Armies, will make a full end, and that determined, throughout all the earth.
Jer æe Gospod, Gospod nad vojskama, izvršiti pogibao odreðenu u svoj zemlji.
24 Therefore the Lord, GOD of Armies, says, “My people who dwell in Zion, do not be afraid of the Assyrian, though he strike you with the rod, and lift up his staff against you, as Egypt did.
Zato ovako veli Gospod, Gospod nad vojskama: ne boj se Asirca, narode moj, koji nastavaš na gori Sionu; prutom æe te udariti i štap svoj podignuæe na te kao u Misiru.
25 For yet a very little while, and the indignation against you will be accomplished, and my anger will be directed to his destruction.”
Jer još malo, i gnjev æe prestati; tada æe se jarost moja obratiti na njihovu pogibao.
26 The LORD of Armies will stir up a scourge against him, as in the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb. His rod will be over the sea, and he will lift it up like he did against Egypt.
Jer æe podignuti na nj Gospod nad vojskama biè, te æe biti kao rasap Madijanski kod kamena Oriva i kao štap njegov na moru, i podignuæe ga kao u Misiru.
27 It will happen in that day that his burden will depart from off your shoulder, and his yoke from off your neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing oil.
I tada æe se skinuti breme njegovo s ramena tvojega i jaram njegov s vrata tvojega, i izlomiæe se jaram od pomazanja.
28 He has come to Aiath. He has passed through Migron. At Michmash he stores his baggage.
Doðe u Ajat, proðe u Migron, u Mihmasu rasprti prtljag svoj.
29 They have gone over the pass. They have taken up their lodging at Geba. Ramah trembles. Gibeah of Saul has fled.
Poðoše klancem, u Gavaji zanoæiše, prepade se Rama, Gavaja Saulova pobježe.
30 Cry aloud with your voice, daughter of Gallim! Listen, Laishah! You poor Anathoth!
Vièi iza glasa, kæeri Galimova; nek se èuje u Lais, jadni Anatote!
31 Madmenah is a fugitive. The inhabitants of Gebim flee for safety.
Madmina pobježe, stanovnici Gevimski utekoše.
32 This very day he will halt at Nob. He shakes his hand at the mountain of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.
Još jedan dan, pa æe stajati u Novu, mahnuæe rukom svojom na goru kæeri Sionske, na hum Jerusalimski.
33 Behold, the Lord, GOD of Armies, will lop the boughs with terror. The tall will be cut down, and the lofty will be brought low.
Gle, Gospod, Gospod nad vojskama, okresaæe silom grane; što je visoko posjeæi æe, i što je uzdignuto sniziæe.
34 He will cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon will fall by the Mighty One.
I gustu æe šumu isjeæi sjekirom, i Livan æe pasti od silnoga.
