Isaiah 25
1 O Lord, you are my God; I will give praise to you, I will give honour to your name; for you have done great acts of power; your purposes in the past have been made true and certain in effect.
Jahve, ti si Bog moj, uznosim te, tvoje ime slavim, jer si proveo čudesan naum, smišljen od davnine, istinit i vjeran,
2 For you have made a town a waste place: a strong town a mass of broken walls; the tower of the men of pride has come to an end; it will never be put up again.
jer grad si pretvorio u hrpu kamenja, a mjesto utvrđeno u ruševine. Tvrđa neprijateljska više nije grad, dovijeka se više obnoviti neće.
3 For this cause will the strong people give glory to you, the town of the cruel ones will be in fear of you.
Zato te slavi narod snažan, grad moćnih plemena tebe se boji;
4 For you have been a strong place for the poor and the crushed in their trouble, a safe place from the storm, a shade from the heat, when the wrath of the cruel ones is like a winter storm.
jer ti si utočište nevoljnom, utočište ubogom u nevolji; ti si skrovište od pljuska i od žege zaklon, jer ćud je silnička kao pljusak zimski;
5 As heat by the shade of a cloud, the noise of the men of pride has been made quiet by you; as heat by the shade of a cloud, the song of the cruel ones has been stopped.
kao žega nad zemljom sušnom ti gušiš graju neprijatelja; kao žega sjenom oblaka prekinu se silniku pjesma pobjednička.
6 And in this mountain will the Lord of armies make for all peoples a feast of good things, a feast of wines long stored, of good things sweet to the taste, of wines long kept and tested.
I Jahve nad Vojskama spremit će svim narodima na ovoj gori gozbu od pretiline, gozbu od izvrsna vina, od pretiline sočne, od vina staložena.
7 And in this mountain he will put an end to the shade covering the face of all peoples, and the veil which is stretched over all nations.
Na ovoj gori on će raskinuti zastor što zastiraše sve narode, pokrivač koji sva plemena pokrivaše
8 He has put an end to death for ever; and the Lord God will take away all weeping; and he will put an end to the shame of his people in all the earth: for the Lord has said it.
i uništit će smrt zasvagda. I suzu će sa svakog lica Jahve, Gospod, otrti - sramotu će svog naroda na svoj zemlji skinuti: tako Jahve reče.
9 And in that day it will be said, See, this is our God; we have been waiting for him, and he will be our saviour: this is the Lord in whom is our hope; we will be glad and have delight in his salvation.
I reći će se u onaj dan: “Gle, ovo je Bog naš, u njega se uzdasmo, on nas je spasio; ovo je Jahve u koga se uzdasmo! Kličimo i veselimo se spasenju njegovu,
10 For in this mountain will the hand of the Lord come to rest, and Moab will be crushed down in his place, even as the dry stems of the grain are crushed under foot in the waste place.
jer ruka Jahvina na ovoj gori počiva!” Moab je izgažen na svome mjestu kao što se gazi slama na buništu;
11 And if he puts out his hands, like a man stretching out his hands in swimming, the Lord will make low his pride, however expert his designs.
ondje on razmahuje rukama kao što ih razmahuje plivač kada pliva. Ali Jahve obara njegovu ponositost i propinjanja ruku njegovih.
12 And the strong tower of your walls has been broken by him, made low, and crushed even to the dust.
Visoku tvrđu tvojih zidina on razvaljuje, na zemlju baca, u prah ruši.
