Isaiah 10
1 Cursed are those who make evil decisions, and the writers who make the records of their cruel acts:
Teško onima koji postavljaju zakone nepravedne i koji pišu nepravdu,
2 Who do wrong to the poor in their cause, and take away the right of the crushed among my people, so that they may have the property of widows, and get under their power those who have no father.
Da odbiju od suda uboge, i da otimaju pravicu siromasima naroda mojega, da bi im plijen bile udovice i sirote grabež.
3 And what will you do in the day of punishment, and in the destruction which is coming from far? to whom will you go for help, and what will become of your glory?
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 ... For all this his wrath 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 Ho! Assyrian, the rod of my wrath, the instrument of my punishment!
Teško Asiru, šibi gnjeva mojega, ako i jest palica u ruci njegovoj moja jarost.
6 I will send him against a nation of wrongdoers, and against the people of my wrath I will give him orders, to take their wealth in war, crushing them down like the dust in 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 But this is not what is in his mind, and this is not his design; but his purpose is destruction, and the cutting off of more and more 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 my captains kings?
Jer æe reæi: knezovi moji nijesu li svi carevi?
9 Will not the fate of Calno be like that of Carchemish? is not Hamath as Arpad? is not Samaria as Damascus?
Nije li Halan kao Harhemis? nije li Emat kao Arfad? nije li Samarija kao Damasak?
10 As my hand has come on the kingdoms of the images, whose pictured images were more in number than those of Jerusalem and Samaria;
Kako je ruka moja našla carstva lažnijeh bogova, kojih likovi bijahu jaèi od Jerusalimskih i Samarijskih,
11 So, as I have done to Samaria and her images, I will do to Jerusalem and her images.
Neæu li uèiniti Jerusalimu i njegovijem lažnijem bogovima onako kako sam uèinio Samariji i njezinijem lažnijem bogovima?
12 For this cause it will be that, when the purpose of the Lord against Mount Zion and Jerusalem is complete, I will send punishment on the pride of the heart of the king of Assyria, and on the glory of his uplifted eyes.
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 knowledge, for I am wise: and I have taken away the limits of the peoples' lands, and the stores of their wealth have become mine; and I have made towns low in the dust, sending destruction on those living in them;
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 And I have put my hands on the wealth of the peoples, as on the place where a bird has put her eggs; and as a man may take the eggs from which a bird has gone, so I have taken all the earth for myself: and not a wing was moved, and not a mouth gave out a sound.
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 Will the axe say high-sounding words against him who is using it, or the blade be full of pride against him who is cutting with it? As if a rod had the power of shaking him who is using it, or as if a stick might take up him 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 For this cause the Lord, the Lord of armies, will make his fat become wasted; and in his inner parts a fire will be lighted like a burning flame.
Zato æe Gospod, Gospod nad vojskama, pustiti na pretile njegove mršu, i slavu æe njegovu potpaliti da gori kao oganj.
17 And the light of Israel will be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame: wasting and burning up his thorns 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 And he will put an end to the glory of his woods and of his planted fields, soul and body together; and it will be as when a man is wasted by disease.
I krasotu šume njegove i njive njegove, od duše do tijela, uništiæe, i biæe kao bjegunac kad iznemogne.
19 And the rest of the trees of his wood will be small in number, so that a child may put them down in writing.
I što ostane drveta šume njegove, biæe malo, da bi ih dijete moglo popisati.
20 And it will be in that day that the rest of Israel, and those of Jacob who have come safely through these troubles, will no longer go for help to him whose rod was on their back, but their faith will be in the Lord, the Holy One of Israel.
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 The rest, even the rest of Jacob, will come back to the Strong God.
Ostatak æe se obratiti, ostatak Jakovljev, k Bogu silnome.
22 For though your people, O Israel, are as the sand of the sea, only a small number will come back: for the destruction is fixed, overflowing in 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, the Lord of armies, is about to make destruction complete in all the land.
Jer æe Gospod, Gospod nad vojskama, izvršiti pogibao odreðenu u svoj zemlji.
24 For this cause the Lord, the Lord of armies, says, O my people living in Zion, have no fear of the Assyrian, even if his rod comes on your back, and his stick is lifted up as in Egypt.
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 in a very short time my passion will be over, and my wrath will be turned to their destruction.
Jer još malo, i gnjev æe prestati; tada æe se jarost moja obratiti na njihovu pogibao.
26 And the Lord of armies will be shaking a whip against him, as when he overcame Midian at the rock of Oreb: and his rod will be lifted up against them as it was against the Egyptians.
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 And in that day the weight which he put on your back will be taken away, and his yoke broken from off your neck.
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 gone up from Pene-Rimmon, he has come to Aiath; he has gone past Migron, at Michmash he puts his forces in order.
Doðe u Ajat, proðe u Migron, u Mihmasu rasprti prtljag svoj.
29 They have gone across the mountain; Geba will be our resting-place tonight, they say: Ramah is shaking with fear; Gibeah of Saul has gone in flight.
Poðoše klancem, u Gavaji zanoæiše, prepade se Rama, Gavaja Saulova pobježe.
30 Give a loud cry, daughter of Gallim; let Laishah give ear; let Anathoth give answer to her.
Vièi iza glasa, kæeri Galimova; nek se èuje u Lais, jadni Anatote!
31 Madmenah has gone; the men of Gebim are putting their goods in a safe place.
Madmina pobježe, stanovnici Gevimski utekoše.
32 This very day he is stopping at Nob; he is shaking his hand against 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 See, the Lord, the Lord of armies, is cutting off his branches with a great noise, and his strong ones are falling and his high ones are coming down.
Gle, Gospod, Gospod nad vojskama, okresaæe silom grane; što je visoko posjeæi æe, i što je uzdignuto sniziæe.
34 And he is cutting down the thick places of the wood with an axe, and Lebanon with its tall trees is coming down.
I gustu æe šumu isjeæi sjekirom, i Livan æe pasti od silnoga.
