< Isaiah 60 >

1 Arise, shine! for thy light is come, and the glory of Jehovah is risen upon thee.
Ustani, zasini, jer svjetlost tvoja dolazi, nad tobom blista Slava Jahvina.
2 For behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the peoples; but Jehovah will arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen on thee.
A zemlju, evo, tmina pokriva, i mrklina narode! A tebe obasjava Jahve, i Slava se njegova javlja nad tobom.
3 And the nations shall walk by thy light, and kings by the brightness of thy rising.
K tvojoj svjetlosti koračaju narodi, i kraljevi k istoku tvoga sjaja.
4 Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: all they gather themselves together, they come to thee: thy sons come from afar, and thy daughters are carried upon the side.
Podigni oči, obazri se: svi se sabiru, k tebi dolaze. Sinovi tvoji dolaze izdaleka, kćeri ti nose u naručju.
5 Then thou shalt see, and shalt be brightened, and thy heart shall throb, and be enlarged; for the abundance of the sea shall be turned unto thee, the wealth of the nations shall come unto thee.
Gledat ćeš tad i sjati radošću, igrat će srce i širit' se, jer k tebi će poteći bogatstvo mora, blago naroda k tebi će pritjecati.
6 A multitude of camels shall cover thee, young camels of Midian and Ephah; all they from Sheba shall come: they shall bring gold and incense; and they shall publish the praises of Jehovah.
Mnoštvo deva prekrit će te, jednogrbe deve iz Midjana i Efe. Svi će iz Šebe doći donoseći zlato i tamjan i hvale Jahvi pjevajući.
7 All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered unto thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall serve thee: they shall come up with acceptance on mine altar, and I will beautify the house of my magnificence.
Sva stada kedarska u tebi će se sabrati, ovnovi nebajotski bit će ti na službu. Penjat će se k'o ugodna žrtva na moj žrtvenik, proslavit ću Dom Slave svoje!
8 Who are these that come flying as a cloud, and as doves to their dove-cotes?
Tko su oni što lebde poput oblaka, k'o golubovi prema golubinjacima svojim?
9 For the isles shall await me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from afar, their silver and their gold with them, unto the name of Jehovah thy God, and to the Holy One of Israel, for he hath glorified thee.
Da, to se zbog mene sabiru brodovi, lađe su taršiške pred njima da izdaleka dovezu tvoje sinove, a s njima srebro njihovo i zlato, zbog imena Jahve, Boga tvojega, zbog Sveca Izraelova koji te proslavi.
10 And the sons of the alien shall build up thy walls, and their kings shall minister unto thee. For in my wrath I smote thee, but in my favour have I had mercy on thee.
Zidine će tvoje obnoviti stranci i kraljevi njihovi služit će ti. U svojoj srdžbi ja sam te udario, al' u svojoj naklonosti opet ti se smilovah.
11 And thy gates shall stand open continually: (they shall not be shut day nor night, ) that the wealth of the nations may be brought unto thee, and that their kings may be led [to thee].
Vrata će tvoja biti otvorena svagda, ni danju ni noću neće se zatvarati, da propuste k tebi bogatstva naroda s kraljevima koji ih vode.
12 For the nation and the kingdom that will not serve thee shall perish; and those nations shall be utterly wasted.
Jer propast će narod i kraljevstvo koje ti ne bude htjelo služiti, i ti će se narodi sasvim zatrti.
13 The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, the cypress, pine, and box-tree together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious.
K tebi će doći slava Libanona, čempresi, jele i brijestovi skupa, da ukrase prostor mojega Svetišta, podnožje će moje proslaviti!
14 And the children of them that afflicted thee shall come bending unto thee; and all they that despised thee shall bow themselves down at the soles of thy feet; and they shall call thee The city of Jehovah, the Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
K tebi će, sagnuti, dolaziti sinovi tvojih tlačitelja, pred noge ti padat' koji te prezirahu. Nazivat će te Gradom Jahvinim, Sionom Sveca Izraelova.
15 Instead of thy being forsaken and hated, so that no one went through [thee], I will make thee an eternal excellency, a joy from generation to generation.
Zato što si bio ostavljen, omražen, izbjegavan, učinit ću te vječnim ponosom, radošću od koljena do koljena.
16 And thou shalt suck the milk of the nations, and shalt suck the breast of kings; and thou shalt know that I, Jehovah, [am] thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.
Ti ćeš sisati mlijeko naroda, sisat ćeš grudi kraljeva. I znat ćeš da sam ja, Jahve, Spasitelj tvoj, Silni Jakovljev, tvoj Otkupitelj.
17 For bronze I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood bronze, and for stones iron; and I will make thine officers peace, and thy rulers righteousness.
Mjesto mjedi, donijet ću zlato; mjesto željeza, donijet ću srebro; mjesto drva, mjed; mjesto kamena, željezo. Za glavara tvoga postavit ću Mir, Pravdu za vladara.
18 Violence shall no more be heard in thy land, wasting nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy walls Salvation, and thy gates Praise.
Više se neće slušat' o nasilju u tvojoj zemlji ni o pustošenju i razaranju na tvojem području. Zidine ćeš svoje nazivati Spasom, Slavom svoja vrata.
19 The sun shall be no more thy light by day, neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee; but Jehovah shall be thine everlasting light, and thy God thy glory.
Neće ti više sunce biti svjetlost danju nit' će ti svijetlit' mjesečina, nego će Jahve biti tvoje vječno svjetlo i tvoj će Bog biti tvoj sjaj.
20 Thy sun shall no more go down, neither shall thy moon withdraw itself; for Jehovah shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended.
Sunce tvoje neće više zalaziti nit' će ti mjesec pomrčati, jer će Jahve biti tvoje vječno svjetlo, i okončat će se dani tvoje žalosti.
21 Thy people also shall be all righteous: they shall possess the land for ever — the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.
Svi u tvom narodu bit će pravednici i posjedovat će zemlju dovijeka, mog nasada izdanci, mojih ruku djelo, da bih se u njima proslavio.
22 The little one shall become a thousand, and the smallest a mighty nation: I, Jehovah, will hasten it in its time.
Od najmanjega postat će tisuća, od neznatnoga moćan narod. Ja, Jahve, govorio sam; u pravo ću vrijeme izvršiti.
