Isaiah 35
1 The land that was desolate and impassable shall be glad, and the wilderness shall rejoice, and shall flourish like the lily.
Nek' se uzraduje pustinja, zemlja sasušena, neka kliče stepa, nek' ljiljan procvjeta.
2 It shall bud forth and blossom, and shall rejoice with joy and praise: the glory of Libanus is given to it: the beauty of Carmel, and Saron, they shall see the glory of the Lord, and the beauty of our God.
Nek' bujno cvatom cvate, da, neka od veselja kliče i nek' se raduje. Dana joj je slava Libanona, divota Karmela i Šarona; oni će vidjeti slavu Jahvinu, divotu Boga našega.
3 Strengthen ye the feeble hands, and confirm the weak knees.
Ukrijepite ruke klonule, učvrstite koljena klecava!
4 Say to the fainthearted: Take courage, and fear not: behold your God will bring the revenge of recompense: God himself will come and will save you.
Recite preplašenim srcima: “Budite jaki, ne bojte se! Evo Boga vašega, odmazda dolazi, Božja naplata, on sam hita da nas spasi!”
5 Then shall the eyes of the blind be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.
Sljepačke će oči progledati, uši će se gluhih otvoriti,
6 Then shall the lame man leap as a hart, and the tongue of the dumb shall be free: for waters are broken out in the desert, and streams in the wilderness.
tad će hromi skakati k'o jelen, njemakov će jezik klicati. Jer će u pustinji provreti voda, i u stepi potoci,
7 And that which was dry land, shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water. In the dens where dragons dwell before, shall rise up the verdure of the reed and the bulrush.
sažgana će zemlja postat' jezero, a tlo žedno - izvori. U brlozima gdje ležahu čaglji izrast će rogoz i trska.
8 And a path and a way shall be there, and it shall be called the holy way: the unclean shall not pass over it, and this shall be unto you a straight way, so that fools shall not err therein.
Bit će ondje čista cesta, a zvat će se Sveti put: nitko nečist njime neće proći, bezumnici njime neće lutati.
9 No lion shall be there, nor shall any mischievous beast go up by it, nor be found there: but they shall walk there that shall be delivered.
Ondje neće više biti lÓava, nit' će onud zvijer prolaziti, već će hodit' samo otkupljeni,
10 And the redeemed of the Lord shall return, and shall come into Sion with praise, and everlasting joy shall be upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.
vraćati se otkupljenici Jahvini. Doći će u Sion kličuć' od radosti, s veseljem vječnim na čelima; pratit će ih radost i veselje, pobjeći će bol i jauci.
