Esias 31
1 Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help, who trust in horses and chariots, for they are many; and in horses, [which are] a great multitude; and have not trusted in the Holy One of Israel, and have not sought the Lord.
Teško onima koji idu u Misir za pomoæ, koji se oslanjaju na konje, i uzdaju se u kola što ih je mnogo, i u konjike što ih je veliko mnoštvo, a ne gledaju na sveca Izrailjeva i ne traže Gospoda.
2 Therefore he has wisely brought evils upon them, and his word shall not be frustrated; and he shall rise up against the houses of wicked men, and against their vain hope,
Ali je i on mudar, i navuæi æe zlo, i neæe poreæi svoje rijeèi, nego æe ustati na dom nevaljalijeh ljudi i na one koji pomažu onima koji èine bezakonje.
3 [even] an Egyptian, a man, and not God; the flesh of horses, and there is no help [in them]: but the Lord shall bring his hand upon them, and the helpers shall fail, and all shall perish together.
A Misirci su ljudi a ne Bog, i konji su njihovi tijelo a ne duh; i zato æe Gospod mahnuti rukom svojom, te æe pasti pomagaè, pašæe i onaj kome pomaže, i svi æe zajedno poginuti.
4 For thus said the Lord to me, As a lion would roar, or a lion's whelp over prey which he has taken, and cry over it, until the mountains are filled with his voice, and [the animals] are awe-struck and tremble at the fierceness of his wrath: so the Lord of hosts shall descend to fight upon the mount Sion, [even] upon her mountains.
Jer ovako mi reèe Gospod: kao što lav i laviæ rièe nad lovom svojim, i ako se i svièe na nj mnoštvo pastira, on se ne plaši od vike njihove niti se pokorava na buku njihovu, tako æe Gospod nad vojskama siæi da vojuje za goru Sionsku i za hum njezin.
5 As birds flying, so shall the Lord of hosts defend; he shall defend Jerusalem, and he shall rescue, and save and deliver.
Kao ptice krilima Gospod æe nad vojskama zaklanjati Jerusalim, i zaklanjajuæi izbaviæe, i oblazeæi saèuvaæe.
6 Turn, you children of Israel, who devise a deep and sinful counsel.
Vratite se k njemu, od kojega se sasvijem odvrgoste, sinovi Izrailjevi!
7 For in that day men shall renounce their silver idols and [their] golden idols, which their hands made.
Jer æe u onaj dan svaki odbaciti idole svoje srebrne, i zlatne svoje idole, koje vam ruke vaše naèiniše na grijeh.
8 And the Assyrian shall fall: not the sword of a great man, nor the sword of a mean man shall devour him; neither shall he flee from the face of the sword: but the young men shall be overthrown:
I Asirac æe pasti od maèa ne èovjeèijega, i maè ne èovjeèji poješæe ga, i bježaæe ispred maèa, i mladiæi æe njegovi plaæati danak.
9 for they shall be compassed with rocks as with a trench, and shall be worsted; and he that flees shall be taken. Thus says the Lord, Blesses is he that has a seed in Sion, and household friends in Jerusalem.
I stijena æe njegova proæi od straha, i knezovi æe se njegovi prepasti od zastave, veli Gospod, èiji je oganj na Sionu i peæ u Jerusalimu.
