Isaiah 37
1 And it came to pass when king Hezekiah heard [it], that he rent his garments, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of Jehovah.
A kad to èu car Jezekija, razdrije haljine svoje i veza oko sebe kostrijet, pa otide u dom Gospodnji.
2 And he sent Eliakim, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz.
I posla Elijakima, koji bijaše nad dvorom, i Somnu pisara i najstarije sveštenike obuèene u kostrijet k Isaiji proroku sinu Amosovu.
3 And they said to him, Thus says Hezekiah: This day is a day of trouble, and of rebuke, and of reviling; for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth.
I rekoše mu: ovako veli Jezekija: ovo je dan nevolje i kara i ruga, jer prispješe djeca do poroðaja, a nema snage da se rode.
4 It may be Jehovah thy God will hear the words of Rab-shakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master has sent to reproach the living God, and will rebuke the words which Jehovah thy God hath heard. Therefore lift up a prayer for the remnant that is left.
Da ako je èuo Gospod Bog tvoj što reèe Ravsak, kojega posla car Asirski gospodar njegov da ruži Boga živoga i da ga vrijeða rijeèima koje je èuo Gospod Bog tvoj, pomoli se za ostatak koji se nalazi.
5 And the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
I doðoše k Isaiji sluge cara Jezekije.
6 And Isaiah said to them, Thus shall ye say to your master, Thus saith Jehovah: Be not afraid of the words that thou hast heard, wherewith the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.
I reèe im Isaija: ovako recite gospodaru svojemu: ovako veli Gospod: ne plaši se od rijeèi koje si èuo, kojima huliše na me sluge cara Asirskoga.
7 Behold, I will put a spirit into him, and he shall hear tidings, and shall return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.
Evo, ja æu pustiti na nj duh, te æe èuti glas i vratiti se u svoju zemlju, i uèiniæu da pogine od maèa u svojoj zemlji.
8 And Rab-shakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah; for he had heard that he had departed from Lachish.
I tako vrativši se Ravsak naðe cara Asirskoga gdje bije Livnu, jer bješe èuo da je otišao od Lahisa.
9 And he heard say of Tirhakah king of Ethiopia, He has come forth to make war with thee. And when he heard [it], he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying,
A on èu za Tiraku cara Huskoga gdje kazaše: ide da se bije s tobom. I èuvši posla poslanike k Jezekiji govoreæi:
10 Thus shall ye speak to Hezekiah king of Judah, saying: Let not thy God, upon whom thou reliest, deceive thee, saying, Jerusalem shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.
Ovako recite Jezekiji caru Judinu: nemoj da te vara Bog tvoj, u kojega se uzdaš govoreæi: neæe se dati Jerusalim u ruke caru Asirskom.
11 Behold, thou hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all countries, destroying them utterly; and shalt thou be delivered?
Eto, èuo si šta su uèinili carevi Asirski svijem zemljama potrvši ih sasvijem; a ti li æeš se izbaviti?
12 Have the gods of the nations which my fathers have destroyed delivered them, Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the children of Eden that were in Thelassar?
Jesu li narode koje satrše oci moji izbavili bogovi njihovi, Gosance, Harance, Resefe i sinove Edenove koji bijahu u Telasaru?
13 Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivvah?
Gdje je car Ematski i car Arfadski i car od grada Sefarvima, od Ene i Ave?
14 And Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers, and read it; and Hezekiah went up into the house of Jehovah, and spread it before Jehovah.
A kad Jezekija primi knjigu iz ruku poslanika i proèita je, otide u dom Gospodnji, i razvi je Jezekija pred Gospodom.
15 And Hezekiah prayed to Jehovah, saying,
I pomoli se Jezekija Gospodu govoreæi:
16 Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, who sittest [between] the cherubim, thou, the Same, thou alone art the God of all the kingdoms of the earth: thou hast made the heavens and the earth.
Gospode nad vojskama, Bože Izrailjev, koji sjediš na heruvimima, ti si sam Bog svijem carstvima na zemlji, ti si stvorio nebo i zemlju.
17 Incline thine ear, O Jehovah, and hear; open, Jehovah, thine eyes, and see; and hear all the words of Sennacherib, who hath sent to reproach the living God.
Prigni, Gospode, uho svoje i èuj; otvori, Gospode, oèi svoje i vidi; èuj sve rijeèi Senahirima, koji posla da ruži Boga živoga.
18 Of a truth, Jehovah, the kings of Assyria have laid waste all the lands, and their countries,
Istina je, opustošili su carevi Asirski sve one narode i zemlje njihove,
19 and have cast their gods into the fire; for they were no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone; and they have destroyed them.
I pobacali su bogove njihove u oganj, jer ne bijahu bogovi, nego djelo ruku èovjeèijih, drvo i kamen, zato ih potrše.
20 And now, Jehovah our God, save us out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art Jehovah, thou only.
I zato, Gospode Bože naš, izbavi nas iz ruku njegovijeh, da poznadu sva carstva na zemlji da si ti sam Gospod.
21 And Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, Thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel, Whereas thou hast prayed to me concerning Sennacherib king of Assyria,
Tada posla Isaija sin Amosov k Jezekiji i poruèi mu: ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: uslišio sam za što si mi se molio radi Senahirima cara Asirskoga.
22 this is the word which Jehovah hath spoken against him: The virgin-daughter of Zion despiseth thee, laugheth thee to scorn; the daughter of Jerusalem shaketh her head at thee.
Ovo je rijeè koju izreèe Gospod za nj: ruga ti se i potsmijeva ti se djevojka, kæi Sionska, za tobom maše glavom kæi Jerusalimska.
23 Whom hast thou reproached and blasphemed? and against whom hast thou exalted the voice? Against the Holy One of Israel hast thou lifted up thine eyes on high.
Koga si ružio i hulio? i na koga si podigao glas? i podigao uvis oèi svoje? Na sveca Izrailjeva.
24 By thy servants thou hast reproached the Lord, and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots am I come up to the height of the mountains, to the recesses of Lebanon; and I will cut down its tall cedars, the choice of its cypresses; and I will enter into its furthest height, [into] the forest of its fruitful field.
Preko sluga svojih ružio si Gospoda i rekao si: s mnoštvom kola svojih izidoh na visoke gore, na strane Livanske, i posjeæi æu visoke kedre njegove, i lijepe jele njegove, i doæi æu na najviši kraj njegov, u šumu njegova Karmila.
25 I have digged and drunk water; and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the streams of Matsor.
Ja sam kopao, i pio vodu, i isušio sam stopama svojim sve potoke gradovima.
26 Hast thou not heard that long ago I did it, and that from ancient days I formed it? Now have I brought it to pass, that thou shouldest lay waste fortified cities [into] ruinous heaps.
Nijesi li èuo da ja to odavna èinim i od iskona da sam tako uredio? sada puštam to, da prevratiš tvrde gradove u puste gomile.
27 And their inhabitants were powerless, they were dismayed and put to shame; they were [as] the grass of the field and the green herb, [as] the grass on the housetops, and grain blighted before it be grown up.
Zato koji u njima žive iznemogoše, uplašiše se i smetoše se, postaše kao trava poljska, kao zelena travica, kao trava na krovovima, koja se suši prije nego sazri.
28 But I know thine abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy raging against me.
Znam sjeðenje tvoje i polaženje tvoje i dolaženje tvoje i kako bjesniš na me.
29 Because thy raging against me and thine arrogance is come up into mine ears, I will put my ring in thy nose, and my bridle in thy lips, and I will make thee go back by the way by which thou camest.
Jer bjesniš na me, i tvoja obijest doðe do mojih ušiju, zato æu metnuti brnjicu svoju na nozdrve tvoje, i uzdu svoju u gubicu tvoju, pa æu te odvesti natrag putem kojim si došao.
30 And this [shall be] the sign unto thee: there shall be eaten this year such as groweth of itself; and in the second year that which springeth of the same; but in the third year sow ye, and reap, and plant vineyards and eat the fruit thereof.
A tebi ovo neka bude znak: ješæete ove godine što samo od sebe rodi, a druge godine što opet samo od sebe rodi; a treæe godine sijte i žanjite i sadite vinograde i jedite rod iz njih.
31 And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall again take root downward, and bear fruit upward;
Jer ostatak doma Judina, što ostane, opet æe pustiti žile ozdo i roditi ozgo.
32 for out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and out of mount Zion they that escape: the zeal of Jehovah of hosts shall do this.
Jer æe iz Jerusalima izaæi ostatak, i iz gore Siona, koji se saèuvaju. Revnost Gospoda nad vojskama uèiniæe to.
33 Therefore thus saith Jehovah concerning the king of Assyria: He shall not come into this city, nor shoot an arrow there, nor come before it with shield, nor cast a bank against it.
Zato ovako veli Gospod za cara Asirskoga: neæe uæi u ovaj grad, niti æe baciti amo strijele, neæe se primaæi k njemu sa štitom, niti æe iskopati opkopa oko njega.
34 By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, and shall not come into this city, saith Jehovah.
Vratiæe se putem kojim je došao, a u grad ovaj neæe uæi, veli Gospod.
35 And I will defend this city, to save it, for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.
Jer æu braniti taj grad i saèuvaæu ga sebe radi i radi Davida sluge svojega.
36 And an angel of Jehovah went forth, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and eighty-five thousand. And when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead bodies.
Tada izide anðeo Gospodnji i pobi u okolu Asirskom sto i osamdeset i pet tisuæa; i kad ustaše ujutru, a to sve sami mrtvaci.
37 And Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and abode at Nineveh.
Te se podiže Senahirim car Asirski, i otide, i vrativši se osta u Nineviji.
38 And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Ararat. And Esarhaddon his son reigned in his stead.
I kad se klanjaše u domu Nisroka boga svojega, Adrameleh i Sarasar sinovi njegovi ubiše ga maèem, a sami pobjegoše u zemlju Araratsku, i na njegovo se mjesto zacari Esaradon sin njegov.
