< Amos 9 >

1 I saw the Lord standing beside the altar, and He said: “Strike the tops of the pillars so that the thresholds shake. Topple them on the heads of all the people, and I will kill the rest with the sword. None of those who flee will get away; none of the fugitives will escape.
Vidjeh Gospoda, a on stajaše na oltaru, i reèe: udari u gornji prag od vrata da se zatresu dovratnici, i rascijepi ih sve od vrha njihova; a što ostane iza njih pobiæu maèem; neæe uteæi izmeðu njih nijedan, niti æe se koji spasti.
2 Though they dig down to Sheol, from there My hand will take them; and though they climb up to heaven, from there I will pull them down. (Sheol h7585)
Da se zakopaju u najdonji kraj zemlje, odande æe ih uzeti ruka moja; i da izaðu na nebo, odande æu ih skinuti; (Sheol h7585)
3 Though they hide themselves atop Carmel, there I will track them and seize them; and though they hide from Me at the bottom of the sea, there I will command the serpent to bite them.
I da se sakriju na vrh Karmila, naæi æu ih i uzeæu ih odande; i da se sakriju ispred mojih oèiju na dno morsko, ondje æu zapovjediti zmiji da ih ujede;
4 Though they are driven by their enemies into captivity, there I will command the sword to slay them. I will fix My eyes upon them for harm and not for good.”
Da otidu u ropstvo pred neprijateljima svojim, i ondje æu zapovjediti maèu da ih pobije, i obratiæu oèi svoje njima na zlo a ne na dobro.
5 The Lord GOD of Hosts, He who touches the earth and it melts, and all its dwellers mourn— all the land rises like the Nile, then sinks like the river of Egypt—
Jer Gospod Gospod nad vojskama kad se dotakne zemlje, ona se rastapa i tuže svi koji žive na njoj, i razljeva se sva kao rijeka i potapa se kao od rijeke Misirske.
6 He builds His upper rooms in the heavens and founds His vault upon the earth. He summons the waters of the sea and pours them over the face of the earth. The LORD is His name.
On je sagradio sebi klijeti na nebu i svod svoj osnovao na zemlji; zove vode morske i izljeva ih po zemlji; ime mu je Gospod.
7 “Are you not like the Cushites to Me, O children of Israel?” declares the LORD. “Did I not bring Israel up from the land of Egypt, the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Arameans from Kir?
Nijeste li mi, sinovi Izrailjevi, kao sinovi Etiopski? govori Gospod; ne izvedoh li Izrailja iz zemlje Misirske, a Filisteje iz Kaftora i Sirce iz Kira?
8 Surely the eyes of the Lord GOD are on the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from the face of the earth. Yet I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,”
Gle, oèi su Gospodnje upravljene na ovo grješno carstvo da ga zatrem sa zemlje; ali neæu sasvijem zatrti doma Jakovljeva, govori Gospod.
9 “For surely I will give the command, and I will shake the house of Israel among all the nations as grain is sifted in a sieve; but not a pebble will reach the ground.
Jer, evo, ja æu zapovjediti i razmetaæu meðu svijem narodima dom Izrailjev kao što se razmeæe žito u rešetu da ni zrno ne padne na zemlju.
10 All the sinners among My people will die by the sword— all those who say, ‘Disaster will never draw near or confront us.’”
Od maèa æe poginuti svi grješnici izmeðu mojega naroda, koji govore: neæe doæi, niti æe nas zadesiti zlo.
11 “In that day I will restore the fallen tent of David. I will repair its gaps, restore its ruins, and rebuild it as in the days of old,
U to æu vrijeme podignuti opali šator Davidov, i zatvoriæu mu pukotine, i opraviæu mu što je razvaljeno, i opet æu ga sagraditi kao što je bio prije,
12 that they may possess the remnant of Edom and all the nations that bear My name,”
Da bi naslijedili ostatak Edomski i sve narode na koje se priziva ime moje, govori Gospod, koji èini ovo.
13 “Behold, the days are coming,” declares the LORD, “when the plowman will overtake the reaper and the treader of grapes, the sower of seed. The mountains will drip with sweet wine, with which all the hills will flow.
Evo, idu dani, govori Gospod, kad æe oraè stizati žeteoca, i koji gazi grožðe sijaèa, i gore æe kapati slatkim vinom, a svi æe se humovi rastapati.
14 I will restore My people Israel from captivity; they will rebuild and inhabit the ruined cities. They will plant vineyards and drink their wine; they will make gardens and eat their fruit.
I povratiæu roblje naroda svojega Izrailja, i opet æe sagraditi puste gradove i naseliæe se, i nasadiæe vinograde i piti vino iz njih, i naèiniæe vrtove i jesti rod iz njih.
15 I will firmly plant them in their own land, never again to be uprooted from the land that I have given them,”
I posadiæu ih u zemlji njihovoj, i neæe se više išèupati iz zemlje svoje, koju im dadoh, govori Gospod Bog tvoj.
