< Isaiah 51 >

1 Heare me, ye that follow after righteousnes, and ye that seeke the Lord: looke vnto the rocke, whence ye are hewen, and to the hole of the pit, whence ye are digged.
Prisluhnite mi, vi, ki sledite pravičnosti, vi, ki iščete Gospoda. Glejte na skalo, iz katere ste izklesani in k luknji jame, iz katere ste izkopani.
2 Consider Abraham your father, and Sarah that bare you: for I called him alone, and blessed him, and increased him.
Poglejte na Abrahama, svojega očeta in na Saro, ki vas je rodila. Kajti poklical sem ga samega, ga blagoslovil in namnožil.
3 Surely the Lord shall comfort Zion: he shall comfort all her desolations, and he shall make her desert like Eden, and her wildernes like the garden of the Lord: ioy and gladnesse shalbe founde therein: praise, and the voyce of singing.
Kajti Gospod bo tolažil Sion, tolažil bo vse njegove opustošene kraje in njegovo divjino bo naredil podobno Edenu in njegovo puščavo podobno Gospodovemu vrtu. V njem bo najti radost in veselje, zahvaljevanje in glas melodije.
4 Hearken ye vnto me, my people, and giue eare vnto me, O my people: for a Law shall proceede from me, and I will bring foorth my iudgement for the light of the people.
Prisluhni mi, moje ljudstvo; pazljivo mi prisluhni, oh moj narod. Kajti postava bo izšla od mene in svojo sodbo bom naredil, da počiva za svetlobo ljudstvu.
5 My righteousnes is neere: my saluation goeth foorth, and mine armes shall iudge the people: the yles shall waite for me, and shall trust vnto mine arme.
Moja pravičnost je blizu, moja rešitev duš je odšla naprej in moji lakti bodo sodili ljudstvo; otoki bodo čakali name in v moj laket bodo zaupali.
6 Lift vp your eyes to the heauens, and looke vpon the earth beneath: for the heauens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall waxe olde like a garment, and they that dwell therein, shall perish in like maner: but my saluation shall be for euer, and my righteousnesse shall not bee abolished.
Povzdignite svoje oči k nebu in poglejte dol na zemljo spodaj, kajti nebo bo izginilo proč kakor dim in zemlja se bo postarala kakor obleka in tisti, ki prebivajo na njej, bodo umrli na podoben način, toda moja rešitev duš bo večna in moja pravičnost ne bo odpravljena.
7 Hearken vnto me, ye that know righteousnesse, the people in whose heart is my Lawe. Feare ye not the reproche of men, neither be ye afraide of their rebukes.
Prisluhnite mi vi, ki poznate pravičnost, ljudstvo, v čigar srcu je moja postava. Ne bojte se graje ljudi niti ne bodite prestrašeni ob njihovih zasramovanjih.
8 For the mothe shall eate them vp like a garment, and the worme shall eate them like wool: but my righteousnesse shalbe for euer, and my saluation from generation to generation.
Kajti molj jih bo pojedel kakor obleko in ličinka jih bo pojedla kakor volno, toda moja pravičnost bo na veke in moja rešitev duš od roda do roda.
9 Rise vp, rise vp, and put on strength, O arme of the Lord: rise vp as in the olde time in the generations of the worlde. Art not thou the same, that hath cutte Rahab, and wounded the dragon?
Zbudi se, zbudi se, nadeni si moč, oh Gospodov laket. Zbudi se kakor v starodavnih dneh in rodovih od davnine. Mar nisi ti tisti, ki je posekal Rahaba in ranil zmaja?
10 Art not thou the same, which hath dried the Sea, euen the waters of the great deepe, making the depth of the Sea a way for the redeemed to passe ouer?
Mar nisi ti tisti, ki je osušil morje, vode velike globine, ki je globine morja spremenil v pot za odkupljene, da so prešli?
11 Therefore the redeemed of the Lord shall returne, and come with ioy vnto Zion, and euerlasting ioy shalbe vpon their head: they shall obtaine ioy, and gladnesse: and sorow and mourning shall flee away.
Zato se bodo Gospodovi odkupljenci vrnili in s petjem prišli na Sion in večna radost bo na njihovi glavi. Dosegli bodo veselje in radost, bridkost in žalovanje pa bosta pobegnila.
12 I, euen I am he, that comfort you. Who art thou, that thou shouldest feare a mortall man, and the sonne of man, which shalbe made as grasse?
Jaz, celó jaz sem ta, ki vas tolaži. Kdo si ti, da bi se bal človeka, ki bo umrl in človeškega sina, ki bo narejen kot trava,
13 And forgettest the Lord thy maker, that hath spred out the heauens, and layde the foundations of the earth? and hast feared continually all the day, because of the rage of the oppressour, which is readie to destroy? Where is now the rage of the oppressour?
pozabljaš pa Gospoda, svojega stvarnika, ki je razprostrl nebo in položil temelje zemlji in si se nenehno vsak dan bal zaradi razjarjenosti zatiralca, kakor če bi bil ta pripravljen, da uniči? In kje je zatiralčeva razjarjenost?
14 The captiue hasteneth to be loosed, and that hee should not die in the pitte, nor that his bread should faile.
Ujeti popotnik hiti, da bi bil lahko izpuščen in da ne bi umrl v jami niti da njegovega kruha ne bi zmanjkalo.
15 And I am the Lord thy God that deuided the Sea, when his waues roared: the Lord of hostes is his Name.
Toda jaz sem Gospod, tvoj Bog, ki je razdelil morje, katerega valovi rjovijo: » Gospod nad bojevniki je njegovo ime.«
16 And I haue put my wordes in thy mouth, and haue defended thee in the shadowe of mine hand, that I may plant the heauens, and lay the foundation of the earth, and say vnto Zion, Thou art my people.
Svoje besede sem položil v tvoja usta in te zakril v senco svoje roke, da lahko zasadim nebo in položim temelje zemlji in rečem Sionu: ›Ti si moje ljudstvo.‹
17 Awake, awake, and stande vp, O Ierusalem, which hast drunke at the hande of the Lord the cup of his wrath: thou hast drunken the dregges of the cup of trembling, and wrung them out.
Zbudi se, zbudi se, vstani, oh [prestolnica] Jeruzalem, ki si pila pri Gospodovi roki čašo njegove razjarjenosti. Pila si droži iz čaše trepetanja in jih posrebala.
18 There is none to guide her among all the sonnes, whome she hath brought foorth: there is none that taketh her by the hand of all the sonnes that she hath brought vp.
Nikogar ni, da jo usmerja med vsemi sinovi, ki jih je rodila niti ni nikogar izmed njenih sinov, ki jih je vzgojila, da jo prime za roko.
19 These two thinges are come vnto thee: who will lament thee? desolation and destruction and famine, and the sworde: by whome shall I comfort thee?
Ti dve stvari sta prišli nadte; komu bo žal zate? Opustošenje, poguba, lakota in meč. Po kom te bom potolažil?
20 Thy sonnes haue fainted, and lye at the head of all the streetes as a wilde bull in a nette, and are full of the wrath of the Lord, and rebuke of thy God.
Tvoji sinovi so oslabeli, ležijo na vrhu vseh ulic, kakor divji bik v mreži. Polni so Gospodove razjarjenosti, graje tvojega Boga.
21 Therefore heare nowe this, thou miserable and drunken, but not with wine.
Zato poslušaj sedaj to, ti trpeča in pijana, toda ne z vinom.
22 Thus saith thy Lord God, euen God that pleadeth the cause of his people, Beholde, I haue taken out of thine hande the cuppe of trembling, euen the dregges of the cuppe of my wrath: thou shalt drinke it no more.
Tako govori tvoj Gospod, Gospod in tvoj Bog, ki se poteguje za stvar svojega ljudstva: »Glej, iz tvoje roke sem vzel čašo trepetanja, celó droži iz čaše svoje razjarjenosti. Ne boš je več ponovno pila,
23 But I will put it into their hande that spoile thee: which haue said to thy soule, Bowe downe, that wee may goe ouer, and thou hast layde thy bodie as the grounde, and as the streete to them that went ouer.
temveč jo bom položil v roko tistih, ki te stiskajo, ki so tvoji duši rekli: ›Skloni se, da lahko gremo preko‹ in svoje telo si položila kakor tla in kakor ulico tistim, ki so šli preko.
