Isaiah 19
1 The burden of Egypt. Beholde, the Lord rideth vpon a swift cloude, and shall come into Egypt, and the idoles of Egypt shall be moued at his presence, and the heart of Egypt shall melt in the middes of her.
Breme Egipta. Glej, Gospod jaha na naglem oblaku in prišel bo v Egipt in egiptovski maliki bodo drhteli ob njegovi prisotnosti in srce Egipta se bo stopilo v njegovi sredi.
2 And I will set the Egyptians against the Egyptians: so euery one shall fight against his brother, and euery one against his neighbour, citie against citie, and kingdome against kingdome.
»Egipčane bom naravnal zoper Egipčane in bojevali se bodo vsak zoper svojega brata in vsak zoper svojega soseda, mesto zoper mesto in kraljestvo zoper kraljestvo.
3 And the spirite of Egypt shall faile in the middes of her, and I will destroy their counsell, and they shall seeke at the idoles, and at the sorcerers, and at them that haue spirits of diuination, and at the southsayers.
Egiptovski duh bo odpovedal v njihovi sredi in uničil bom njihov nasvet in iskali bodo k malikom in h krotilcem in k tistim, ki imajo osebne duhove in k čarovnikom.
4 And I will deliuer the Egyptians into the hand of the cruell Lordes, and a mightie King shall rule ouer them, sayth the Lord God of hostes.
Egipčane bom predal v roko krutega gospodarja in silovit kralj bo vladal nad njimi, « govori Gospod, Gospod nad bojevniki.
5 Then the waters of the sea shall faile, and the riuers shall be dryed vp, and wasted.
Vode iz morja se bodo posušile in reke bodo zapuščene in posušene.
6 And the riuers shall goe farre away: the riuers of defence shalbe emptied and dryed vp: the reedes and flagges shall be cut downe.
Reke bodo obrnili daleč proč in obrambni jarki bodo izpraznjeni ter posušeni. Trstje in rogoz bo ovenelo.
7 The grasse in the riuer, and at the head of the riuers, and all that groweth by the riuer, shall wither, and be driuen away, and be no more.
Papirno trstje pri potokih, pri ustju potokov in vsaka posejana stvar ob potokih bo ovenela, bo odgnana in ne bo je več.
8 The fishers also shall mourne, and all they that cast angle into the riuer, shall lament, and they that spread their nette vpon the waters, shall be weakened.
Tudi ribiči bodo žalovali in vsi tisti, ki mečejo trnek v potoke, bodo žalovali in tisti, ki razširjajo mreže nad vodami, bodo pešali.
9 Moreouer, they that worke in flaxe of diuers sortes, shall be confounded, and they that weaue nettes.
Poleg tega bodo zbegani tisti, ki delajo s tankim lanom in tisti, ki tkejo mreže.
10 For their nettes shalbe broken, and all they, that make pondes, shalbe heauie in heart.
Zlomljeni bodo v svojih namenih vsi, ki delajo zapornice in ribnike za ribe.
11 Surely the princes of Zoan are fooles: the counsell of the wise counselers of Pharaoh is become foolish: how say ye vnto Pharaoh, I am the sonne of the wise? I am the sonne of the ancient Kings?
Zagotovo so princi Coana bedaki, nasvet modrih faraonovih svetovalcev je postal brutalen. Kako pravite faraonu: »Jaz sem sin modrega, sin starodavnih kraljev?«
12 Where are nowe thy wise men, that they may tell thee, or may knowe what the Lord of hostes hath determined against Egypt?
Kje so tisti? Kje so tvoji modri možje? In naj ti sedaj povedo in naj vedo kaj je Gospod nad bojevniki namenil nad Egiptom.
13 The princes of Zoan are become fooles: the princes of Noph are deceiued, they haue deceiued Egypt, euen the corners of the tribes thereof.
Princi Coana so postali bedaki, princi Nofa so zavedeni, zapeljali so tudi Egipt, celó tiste, ki so opora njegovih rodov.
14 The Lord hath mingled among them the spirite of errours: and they haue caused Egypt to erre in euery worke thereof, as a drunken man erreth in his vomite.
Gospod je v njihovo sredo pomešal sprevrženega duha in Egiptu so storili, da se moti v vsakem svojem delu, kakor se pijan mož opoteka v svojem bruhanju.
15 Neither shall there be any worke in Egypt, which the head may doe, nor the tayle, ye branch nor the rush.
Niti tam ne bo nobenega dela za Egipt, ki bi ga glava ali rep, palmova veja ali ločje lahko opravili.
16 In that day shall Egypt be like vnto women: for it shall be afraide and feare because of the moouing of the hand of the Lord of hostes, which he shaketh ouer it.
Na tisti dan bo Egipt podoben ženski in bo prestrašen in bal se bo zaradi tresenja roke Gospoda nad bojevniki, ki jo trese nad njim.
17 And the land of Iudah shall be a feare vnto Egypt: euery one that maketh mention of it, shalbe afraid thereat, because of ye counsell of the Lord of hostes, which he hath determined vpon it.
Judova dežela bo strahota Egiptu. Vsak, kdor jo omenja, bo v sebi prestrašen zaradi namena Gospoda nad bojevniki, ki ga je določil zoper njega.
18 In that day shall fiue cities in the lande of Egypt speake the language of Canaan, and shall sweare by the Lord of hostes. one shall be called the citie of destruction.
Na tisti dan bo pet mest v egiptovski deželi govorilo kánaanski jezik in prisegalo pri Gospodu nad bojevniki; eno bo imenovano Mesto uničenja.
19 In that day shall the altar of the Lord be in the middes of the land of Egypt, and a pillar by the border thereof vnto the Lord.
Na tisti dan bo tam oltar Gospodu v sredi egiptovske dežele in steber Gospodu pri njegovi meji.
20 And it shall be for a signe and for a witnes vnto the Lord of hostes in the land of Egypt: for they shall crie vnto the Lord, because of the oppressers, and he shall send them a Sauiour and a great man, and shall deliuer them.
Ta bo za znamenje in za pričevanje Gospodu nad bojevniki v egiptovski deželi, kajti klicali bodo h Gospodu zaradi zatiralcev in poslal jim bo rešitelja in mogočnega in ta jih bo osvobodil.
21 And the Lord shall be knowen of the Egyptians, and the Egyptians shall knowe the Lord in that day, and doe sacrifice and oblation, and shall vowe vowes vnto the Lord, and performe them.
Gospod bo znan Egiptu in Egipčani bodo na tisti dan poznali Gospoda in opravljali klavno daritev in darovanje. Da, prisegali bodo prisego h Gospodu in jo izvedli.
22 So ye Lord shall smite Egypt, he shall smite and heale it: for he shall returne vnto ye Lord, and he shall be intreated of them and shall heale them.
Gospod bo udaril Egipt. Udaril ga bo in ozdravil in vrnili se bodo celó h Gospodu in izprošen bo od njih in jih bo ozdravil.
23 In that day shall there be a path from Egypt to Asshur, and Asshur shall come into Egypt, and Egypt into Asshur: so the Egyptians shall worship with Asshur.
Na tisti dan bo tam glavna cesta iz Egipta v Asirijo in Asirec bo prišel v Egipt in Egipčan v Asirijo in Egipčani bodo služili z Asirci.
24 In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and Asshur, euen a blessing in the middes of the land.
Na tisti dan bo Izrael tretji z Egiptom in Asirijo, celó blagoslov v sredi dežele,
25 For the Lord of hostes shall blesse it, saying, Blessed be my people Egypt and Asshur, the worke of mine hands, and Israel mine inheritance.
ki ga bo Gospod nad bojevniki blagoslovil, rekoč: »Blagoslovljen bodi Egipt, moje ljudstvo in Asirija, delo mojih rok in Izrael, moja dediščina.«
