Isaiah 54
1 “Shout for joy, O barren woman, who bears no children; break forth in song and cry aloud, you who have never travailed; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband,”
»Zapoj, oh jalova, ti, ki nisi nosila, izbruhni v petje in glasno zavpij, ti, ki se nisi mučila z otrokom, kajti več je otrok zapuščene kakor otrok poročene žene, « govori Gospod.
2 “Enlarge the site of your tent, stretch out the curtains of your dwellings, do not hold back. Lengthen your ropes and drive your stakes in deep.
Povečaj kraj svojega šotora in naj razprostrejo zagrinjala tvojih prebivališč. Ne šparaj, podaljšaj svoje vrvi in ojačaj svoje kline,
3 For you will spread out to the right and left; your descendants will dispossess the nations and inhabit the desolate cities.
kajti izbruhnila boš na desno roko in na levo in tvoje seme bo podedovalo pogane in naredila boš, da bodo opustela mesta naseljena.
4 Do not be afraid, for you will not be put to shame; do not be intimidated, for you will not be humiliated. For you will forget the shame of your youth and will remember no more the reproach of your widowhood.
Ne boj se, kajti ne boš osramočena niti ne bodi zbegana, kajti ne prideš v sramoto, kajti pozabila boš sramoto svoje mladosti in ne boš se več spominjala graje svojega vdovstva.
5 For your husband is your Maker— the LORD of Hosts is His name— the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; He is called the God of all the earth.
Kajti tvoj Stvarnik je tvoj soprog, Gospod nad bojevniki je njegovo ime in tvoj Odkupitelj Sveti Izraelov; imenovali ga bodo Bog celotne zemlje.
6 For the LORD has called you back, like a wife deserted and wounded in spirit, like the rejected wife of one’s youth,” says your God.
Kajti Gospod te je poklical kakor žensko, zapuščeno in užaloščeno v duhu in ženo mladosti, ko si bila zavržena, « govori tvoj Bog.
7 “For a brief moment I forsook you, but with great compassion I will bring you back.
»Kajti za kratek trenutek sem te zapustil, toda z velikimi usmiljenji te bom zbral.
8 In a surge of anger I hid My face from you for a moment, but with everlasting kindness I will have compassion on you,” says the LORD your Redeemer.
Z malce besa sem za trenutek skril svoj obraz pred teboj, toda z večno prijaznostjo bom imel usmiljenje nad teboj, « govori Gospod, tvoj Odkupitelj.
9 “For to Me this is like the days of Noah, when I swore that the waters of Noah would never again cover the earth. So I have sworn that I will not be angry with you or rebuke you.
»Kajti to mi je kakor so bile Noetove vode, kajti kakor sem prisegel, da Noetove vode ne bodo več šle preko zemlje, tako sem prisegel, da ne bom ogorčen nad teboj niti te ne bom več oštel.
10 Though the mountains may be removed and the hills may be shaken, My loving devotion will not depart from you, and My covenant of peace will not be broken,” says the LORD, who has compassion on you.
Kajti gore se bodo umaknile in hribi bodo odstranjeni, toda moja prijaznost ne bo odšla od tebe niti zaveza mojega miru ne bo odstranjena, « govori Gospod, ki ima usmiljenje do tebe.
11 “O afflicted city, lashed by storms, without solace, surely I will set your stones in antimony and lay your foundations with sapphires.
»Oh ti trpeča, premetavana z viharjem in nepotolažena, glej, tvoje kamne bom položil z lepimi barvami in tvoje temelje bom položil s safirji.
12 I will make your pinnacles of rubies, your gates of sparkling jewels, and all your walls of precious stones.
Tvoja okna bom naredil iz ahata in tvoja velika vrata iz granata in vse tvoje meje iz prijetnih kamnov.
13 Then all your sons will be taught by the LORD, and great will be their prosperity.
Vsi tvoji otroci bodo poučevani od Gospoda in velik bo mir tvojih otrok.
14 In righteousness you will be established, far from oppression, for you will have no fear. Terror will be far removed, for it will not come near you.
V pravičnosti boš utrjena, daleč boš od zatiranja, kajti ne boš se bala in [daleč boš] od strahote, kajti ta se ti ne bo približala.
15 If anyone attacks you, it is not from Me; whoever assails you will fall before you.
Glej, zagotovo se bodo zbrali skupaj, toda to ni od mene. Kdorkoli se bo skupaj zbral proti tebi, bo padel zaradi tebe.
16 Behold, I have created the craftsman who fans the coals into flame and forges a weapon fit for its task; and I have created the destroyer to wreak havoc.
Glej, jaz sem ustvaril kovača, ki v ognju razpihuje ogorke in ki prinaša orodje za svoje delo in jaz sem ustvaril kvarilca, da uničuje.
17 No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their vindication is from Me,”
Nobeno orožje, ki je oblikovano zoper tebe, ne bo uspelo in vsak jezik, ki se bo na sodbi dvignil zoper tebe, boš obsodila. To je dediščina Gospodovih služabnikov in njihova pravičnost je od mene, « govori Gospod.
