< Isaiah 25 >
1 O Lord, thou art my God: I will exalt thee, I will prayse thy Name: for thou hast done wonderfull things, according to the counsels of old, with a stable trueth.
Jahve, ti si Bog moj, uznosim te, tvoje ime slavim, jer si proveo čudesan naum, smišljen od davnine, istinit i vjeran,
2 For thou hast made of a citie an heape, of a strong citie, a ruine: euen the palace of strangers of a citie, it shall neuer be built.
jer grad si pretvorio u hrpu kamenja, a mjesto utvrđeno u ruševine. Tvrđa neprijateljska više nije grad, dovijeka se više obnoviti neće.
3 Therefore shall the mightie people giue glory vnto thee: the citie of the strong nations shall feare thee.
Zato te slavi narod snažan, grad moćnih plemena tebe se boji;
4 For thou hast bene a strength vnto the poore, euen a strength to the needie in his trouble, a refuge against the tempest, a shadow against the heate: for the blaste of the mightie is like a storme against the wall.
jer ti si utočište nevoljnom, utočište ubogom u nevolji; ti si skrovište od pljuska i od žege zaklon, jer ćud je silnička kao pljusak zimski;
5 Thou shalt bring downe the noyse of the strangers, as the heate in a drie place: he wil bring downe the song of the mightie, as the heate in the shadowe of a cloude.
kao žega nad zemljom sušnom ti gušiš graju neprijatelja; kao žega sjenom oblaka prekinu se silniku pjesma pobjednička.
6 And in this mountaine shall the Lord of hostes make vnto all people a feast of fat thinges, euen a feast of fined wines, and of fat thinges full of marow, of wines fined and purified.
I Jahve nad Vojskama spremit će svim narodima na ovoj gori gozbu od pretiline, gozbu od izvrsna vina, od pretiline sočne, od vina staložena.
7 And he will destroy in this mountaine the couering that couereth all people, and the vaile that is spread vpon all nations.
Na ovoj gori on će raskinuti zastor što zastiraše sve narode, pokrivač koji sva plemena pokrivaše
8 He wil destroy death for euer: and the Lord God wil wipe away the teares from all faces, and the rebuke of his people will he take away out of all the earth: for the Lord hath spoken it.
i uništit će smrt zasvagda. I suzu će sa svakog lica Jahve, Gospod, otrti - sramotu će svog naroda na svoj zemlji skinuti: tako Jahve reče.
9 And in that day shall men say, Loe, this is our God: we haue waited for him, and he wil saue vs. This is the Lord, we haue waited for him: we will reioyce and be ioyfull in his saluation.
I reći će se u onaj dan: “Gle, ovo je Bog naš, u njega se uzdasmo, on nas je spasio; ovo je Jahve u koga se uzdasmo! Kličimo i veselimo se spasenju njegovu,
10 For in this mountaine shall the hand of the Lord rest, and Moab shalbe threshed vnder him, euen as strawe is thresshed in Madmenah.
jer ruka Jahvina na ovoj gori počiva!” Moab je izgažen na svome mjestu kao što se gazi slama na buništu;
11 And he shall stretche out his hande in the middes of them (as he that swimmeth, stretcheth them out to swimme) and with the strength of his handes shall he bring downe their pride.
ondje on razmahuje rukama kao što ih razmahuje plivač kada pliva. Ali Jahve obara njegovu ponositost i propinjanja ruku njegovih.
12 The defence also of the height of thy walles shall he bring downe and lay lowe, and cast them to the ground, euen vnto the dust.
Visoku tvrđu tvojih zidina on razvaljuje, na zemlju baca, u prah ruši.
