Isaiah 36
1 And it came about in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah that Sennacherib, king of Assyria, came up against all the walled towns of Judah and took them.
Èetrnaeste godine carovanja Jezekijina podiže se Senahirim car Asirski na sve tvrde gradove Judine, i uze ih.
2 And the king of Assyria sent the Rab-shakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem to King Hezekiah with a strong force, and he took up his position by the stream of the higher pool, by the highway of the washerman's
I posla car Asirski Ravsaka iz Lahisa u Jerusalim k caru Jezekiji s velikom vojskom; i on stade kod jaza gornjega jezera na putu kod polja bjeljareva.
3 And there came out to him Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder.
Tada izide k njemu Elijakim sin Helkijin, koji bijaše nad dvorom, i Somna pisar i Joah sin Asafov pametar.
4 And the Rab-shakeh said to them, Say now to Hezekiah, These are the words of the great king, the king of Assyria: In what are you placing your hope?
I reèe im Ravsak: kažite Jezekiji: ovako kaže veliki car, car Asirski: kakva je to uzdanica u koju se uzdaš?
5 You say you have a design and strength for war, but these are only words: now to whom are you looking for support, that you have gone against my authority?
Da reèem, ali su prazne rijeèi, da imaš svjeta i sile za rat. U što se dakle uzdaš, te si se odmetnuo od mene?
6 See, you are basing your hope on that broken rod of Egypt, which will go into a man's hand if he makes use of it for a support; for so is Pharaoh, king of Egypt, to all who put their faith in him.
Gle, uzdaš se u štap od trske slomljene, u Misir, na koji ako se ko nasloni, uæi æe mu u ruku i probošæe je; taki je Faraon car Misirski svjema koji se uzdaju u nj.
7 And if you say to me, Our hope is in the Lord our God; is it not he whose high places and altars Hezekiah has taken away, saying to Judah and Jerusalem that worship may only be given before this altar?
Ako li mi reèeš: uzdamo se u Gospoda Boga svojega; nije li to onaj èije je visine i oltare oborio Jezekija i zapovjedio Judi i Jerusalimu: pred ovijem oltarom klanjajte se?
8 And now, take a chance with my master, the king of Assyria, and I will give you two thousand horses, if you are able to put horsemen on them.
Hajde zateci se mojemu gospodaru caru Asirskom, i daæu ti dvije tisuæe konja, ako možeš dobaviti koji æe jahati.
9 How then may you put to shame the least of my master's servants? and you have put your hope in Egypt for war-carriages and horsemen:
Kako æeš dakle odbiti i jednoga vojvodu izmeðu najmanjih slugu gospodara mojega? Ali se ti uzdaš u Misir za kola i konjike.
10 And have I now come to send destruction on this land without the Lord's authority? It was the Lord himself who said to me, Go up against this land and make it waste.
Svrh toga, eda li sam ja bez Gospoda došao na ovo mjesto da ga zatrem? Gospod mi je rekao: idi na tu zemlju, i zatri je.
11 Then Eliakim and Shebna and Joah said to the Rab-shakeh, Please make use of the Aramaean language in talking to your servants, for we are used to it, and do not make use of the Jews' language in the hearing of the people on the wall.
Tada Elijakim i Somna i Joah rekoše Ravsaku: govori slugama svojim Sirski, jer razumijemo, a nemoj nam govoriti Judejski da sluša narod na zidu.
12 But the Rab-shakeh said, Is it to your master or to you that my master has sent me to say these words? has he not sent me to the men seated on the wall? for they are the people who will be short of food with you when the town is shut in.
A Ravsak reèe: eda li me je gospodar moj poslao ka gospodaru tvojemu ili k tebi da kažem ove rijeèi? nije li k tijem ljudima, što sjede na zidu, da jedu svoju neèist i da piju svoju mokraæu s vama?
13 Then the Rab-shakeh got up and said with a loud voice in the Jews' language, Give ear to the words of the great king, the king of Assyria:
Tada stade Ravsak i povika iza glasa Judejski i reèe: èujte rijeèi velikoga cara Asirskoga.
14 This is what the king says: Do not be tricked by Hezekiah, for there is no salvation for you in him.
Ovako kaže car: nemojte da vas vara Jezekija, jer vas ne može izbaviti.
15 And do not let Hezekiah make you put your faith in the Lord, saying, The Lord will certainly keep us safe, and this town will not be given into the hands of the king of Assyria.
Nemojte da vas nagovori Jezekija da se pouzdate u Gospoda, govoreæi: Gospod æe nas izbaviti, ovaj se grad neæe dati u ruke caru Asirskom.
16 Do not give ear to Hezekiah, for this is what the king of Assyria says, Make peace with me, and come out to me; and everyone will be free to take the fruit of his vine and of his fig-tree, and the water of his spring;
Ne slušajte Jezekije; jer ovako kaže car Asirski: uèinite mir sa mnom i hodite k meni, pa jedite svaki sa svoga èokota i svaki sa svoje smokve, i pijte svaki iz svojega studenca,
17 Till I come and take you away to a land like yours, a land of grain and wine, a land of bread and vine-gardens.
Dokle ne doðem i odnesem vas u zemlju kao što je vaša, u zemlju obilnu žitom i vinom, u zemlju obilnu hljebom i vinogradima.
18 Give no attention to Hezekiah when he says to you, The Lord will keep us safe. Has any one of the gods of the nations kept his land from falling into the hands of the king of Assyria?
Nemojte da vas vara Jezekija govoreæi: Gospod æe nas izbaviti. Je li koji izmeðu bogova drugih naroda izbavio svoju zemlju iz ruke cara Asirskoga?
19 Where are the gods of Hamath and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim? where are the gods of Samaria? and have they kept Samaria out of my hand?
Gdje su bogovi Ematski i Arfadski? gdje su bogovi Sefarvimski? jesu li izbavili Samariju iz mojih ruku?
20 Who among all the gods of these countries have kept their country from falling into my hand, to give cause for the thought that the Lord will keep Jerusalem from falling into my hand?
Koji su izmeðu svijeh bogova ovijeh zemalja izbavili zemlju svoju iz moje ruke? a Gospod æe izbaviti Jerusalim iz moje ruke?
21 But they kept quiet and gave him no answer: for the king's order was, Give him no answer.
Ali oni muèahu, i ne odgovoriše mu ni rijeèi, jer car bješe zapovjedio i rekao: ne odgovarajte mu.
22 Then Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, who was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder, came to Hezekiah with their clothing parted as a sign of grief, and gave him an account of what the Rab-shakeh had said.
Tada Elijakim sin Helkijin, koji bijaše nad dvorom, i Somna pisar i Joah sin Asafov, pametar, doðoše k Jezekiji razdrvši haljine, i kazaše mu rijeèi Ravsakove.
