< Isaiah 2 >

1 The word which Isaiah, the son of Amoz, saw about Judah and Jerusalem.
Beseda, ki jo je Izaija, Amócov sin, videl glede Juda in Jeruzalema.
2 And it will come about in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord will be placed on the top of the mountains, and be lifted up over the hills; and all nations will come to it.
Zgodilo se bo v poslednjih dneh, da bo gora Gospodove hiše osnovana na vrhu gora in povišana bo nad hribe. In vsi narodi se bodo stekali k njej.
3 And the peoples will say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob: and he will give us knowledge of his ways, and we will be guided by his word; for out of Zion the law will go out, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
Mnogo ljudstva bo šlo in reklo: »Pridite in pojdimo gor na Gospodovo goro, k hiši Jakobovega Boga. Učil nas bo svojih poti in hodili bomo po njegovih stezah, kajti iz Siona bo izšla postava in Gospodova beseda iz Jeruzalema.«
4 And he will be the judge between the nations, and the peoples will be ruled by his decisions: and their swords will be turned into plough-blades, and their spears into vine-knives: no longer will the nations be turning their swords against one another, and the knowledge of war will be gone for ever.
Sodil bo med narodi, oštel bo mnoga ljudstva. Svoje meče bodo prekovali v lemeže in svoje sulice v obrezovalne kavlje. Narod ne bo vzdignil meča zoper narod niti se ne bodo več učili bojevanja.
5 O family of Jacob, come, and let us go in the light of the Lord.
Oh Jakobova hiša, pridite in hodímo v Gospodovi svetlobi.
6 For you, O Lord, have given up your people, the family of Jacob, because they are full of the evil ways of the east, and make use of secret arts like the Philistines, and are friends with the children of strange countries.
Zatorej si zapustil svoje ljudstvo, Jakobovo hišo, ker so bili izpolnjeni od vzhoda in so napovedovalci usode kakor Filistejci in sebi ugajajo v otrocih tujcev.
7 And their land is full of silver and gold, and there is no end to their stores; their land is full of horses, and there is no end to their carriages.
Njihova dežela je polna srebra in zlata niti tam ni konca njihovih zakladov. Njihova dežela je polna konj niti tam ni konca njihovih bojnih voz.
8 Their land is full of images; they give worship to the work of their hands, even to that which their fingers have made.
Njihova dežela je polna malikov, obožujejo delo svojih lastnih rok, to, kar so naredili njihovi lastni prsti.
9 And the poor man's head is bent, and the great man goes down on his face: for this cause there will be no forgiveness for their sin.
Zloben človek se priklanja in velik človek se ponižuje, zato jim ne odpusti.
10 Go into a hole in the rock, covering yourselves with dust, in fear of the Lord, before the glory of his power.
Vstopi v skalo in se skrij v prahu zaradi strahu pred Gospodom in zaradi slave njegovega veličanstva.
11 The high looks of man will be put to shame, and the pride of men will be made low, and only the Lord will be lifted up in that day.
Človekovi vzvišeni pogledi bodo ponižani in oholost ljudi bo upognjena in sam Gospod bo na ta dan povišan.
12 For the day of the Lord of armies is coming on all the pride of men, and on all who are high and lifted up;
Kajti dan Gospoda nad bojevniki bo nad vsakim, ki je ponosen in vzvišen in nad vsakim, ki je povzdignjen, in ta bo ponižan;
13 And on all the high trees of Lebanon, and on all the strong trees of Bashan;
in nad vsemi libanonskimi cedrami, ki so visoke in povzdignjene in nad vsemi bašánskimi hrasti
14 And on all the high mountains, and on all the hills which are lifted up;
in nad vsemi visokimi gorami in nad vsemi hribi, ki so povzdignjeni,
15 And on every high tower, and on every strong wall;
in nad vsakim visokim stolpom in nad vsakim utrjenim zidom,
16 And on all the ships of Tarshish, and on all the fair boats.
in na vseh ladjah iz Taršíša in na vseh prijetnih slikah.
17 And the high looks of man will be put to shame, and the pride of men will be made low: and only the Lord will be lifted up in that day.
Nadutost človeka bo upognjena in oholost ljudi bo ponižana. Samo Gospod bo povišan na ta dan.
18 And the images will never be seen again.
Malike bo popolnoma odpravil.
19 And men will go into cracks of the rocks, and into holes of the earth, for fear of the Lord, and before the glory of his power, when he comes out of his place, shaking the earth with his strength.
Šli bodo v skalne luknje in v zemeljske votline zaradi strahu pred Gospodom in zaradi slave njegovega veličanstva, ko se on vzdiguje, da strašno strese zemljo.
20 In that day men will put their images of silver and of gold, which they made for worship, in the keeping of the beasts of the dark places;
Na tisti dan bo človek vrgel svoje malike iz srebra in svoje malike iz zlata, ki so si jih naredili, vsakdo za oboževanje, krtom in netopirjem,
21 To take cover in the cracks of the rocks, and in the holes of the hills, for fear of the Lord, and before the glory of his power, when he comes out of his place, shaking the earth with his strength.
da bo šel v skalne razpoke in na vrhove razdrapanih skal, zaradi strahu pred Gospodom in zaradi slave njegovega veličanstva, ko se bo vzdigoval, da strašno strese zemljo.
22 Have no more to do with man, whose life is only a breath, for he is of no value.
Odvrnite se od človeka, katerega dih je v njegovih nosnicah, kajti v čem je ta cenjen?
