Isaiah 63
1 'Who is this that cometh from Edom, with crimsoned garments from Bozrah? This that is glorious in his apparel, stately in the greatness of his strength?' — 'I that speak in victory, mighty to save.' —
»Kdo je ta, ki prihaja iz Edóma, s pobarvanimi oblekami iz Bocre? Ta, ki je veličasten v svojem oblačilu, potujoč v veličini svoje moči?« »Jaz, ki govorim v pravičnosti, močan, da rešim.«
2 'Wherefore is Thine apparel red, and Thy garments like his that treadeth in the winevat?' —
»Zakaj si rdeč v svojem oblačilu in so tvoje obleke podobne tistemu, ki tlači v vinski kadi?«
3 'I have trodden the winepress alone, and of the peoples there was no man with Me; yea, I trod them in Mine anger, and trampled them in My fury; and their lifeblood is dashed against My garments, and I have stained all My raiment.
Sam sem tlačil vinsko stiskalnico in izmed ljudstva ni bilo nikogar z menoj, kajti jaz jih bom pomendral v svoji jezi in jih poteptal v svoji razjarjenosti in njihova kri bo poškropljena na moje obleke in omadeževal si bom vse svoje oblačilo.
4 For the day of vengeance that was in My heart, and My year of redemption are come.
Kajti dan maščevanja je v mojem srcu in leto mojih odkupljenih je prišlo.
5 And I looked, and there was none to help, and I beheld in astonishment, and there was none to uphold; therefore Mine own arm brought salvation unto Me, and My fury, it upheld Me.
Pogledal sem in nikogar ni bilo, da pomaga in čudil sem se, da ni bilo nikogar, da podpre. Zato mi je moj lastni laket prinesel rešitev duše in moja razjarjenost me je podpirala.
6 And I trod down the peoples in Mine anger, and made them drunk with My fury, and I poured out their lifeblood on the earth.'
V svoji jezi bom pomendral ljudstvo in jih opijanil v svoji razjarjenosti in njihovo moč bom privedel dol do zemlje.
7 I will make mention of the mercies of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us; and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which He hath bestowed on them according to His compassions, and according to the multitude of His mercies.
Omenil bom Gospodove ljubeče skrbnosti in Gospodove hvalnice, glede na vse, kar je Gospod podelil na nas in veliko dobroto do Izraelove hiše, ki jo je podelil nanje, glede na njegova usmiljenja in glede na množino njegovih ljubečih skrbnosti.
8 For He said: 'Surely, they are My people, children that will not deal falsely'; so He was their Saviour.
Kajti rekel je: »Zagotovo so moje ljudstvo, otroci, ki ne bodo lagali.« Tako je bil njihov Odrešenik.
9 In all their affliction He was afflicted, and the angel of His presence saved them; in His love and in His pity He redeemed them; and He bore them, and carried them all the days of old.
V vsej njihovi stiski je bil stiskan in angel njegove prisotnosti jih je rešil. V svoji ljubezni in svojem usmiljenju jih je odkupil in nosil jih je in prenašal vse dni davnine.
10 But they rebelled, and grieved His holy spirit; therefore He was turned to be their enemy, Himself fought against them.
Toda uprli so se in jezili njegovega Svetega Duha, zato se je obrnil, da bi bil njihov sovražnik in se boril proti njim.
11 Then His people remembered the days of old, the days of Moses: 'Where is He that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherds of His flock? Where is He that put His holy spirit in the midst of them?
Potem se je spomnil dni davnine, Mojzesa in njegovega ljudstva, rekoč: »Kje je tisti, ki jih je s pastirjem svojega tropa privedel iz morja? Kje je tisti, ki je znotraj njega položil svojega Svetega Duha?
12 That caused His glorious arm to go at the right hand of Moses? That divided the water before them, to make Himself an everlasting name?
Ki jih je vodil z Mojzesovo desnico, svojim veličastnim laktom, razdeljujoč vode pred njimi, da si naredi večno ime?
13 That led them through the deep, as a horse in the wilderness, without stumbling?
Ki jih je vodil skozi globino kakor konja v divjini, da se ne bi spotaknili?
14 As the cattle that go down into the valley, the spirit of the LORD caused them to rest; so didst Thou lead Thy people, to make Thyself a glorious name.'
Kakor gre žival dol v dolino, mu je Gospodov Duh naklonil, da počiva. Tako si vodil svoje ljudstvo, da si narediš veličastno ime.
15 Look down from heaven, and see, even from Thy holy and glorious habitation; Where is Thy zeal and Thy mighty acts, the yearning of Thy heart and Thy compassions, now restrained toward me?
Poglej dol iz nebes in glej iz prebivališča svoje svetosti in svoje slave. Kje je tvoja gorečnost in tvoja moč, odzvanjanje tvoje notranjosti in tvoja usmiljenja do mene? Ali so zadržana?
16 For Thou art our Father; for Abraham knoweth us not, and Israel doth not acknowledge us; Thou, O LORD, art our Father, our Redeemer from everlasting is Thy name.
Nedvomno si ti naš oče, čeprav je Abraham neveden o nas in nas Izrael ne prizna. Ti, oh Gospod, si naš oče, naš odkupitelj; tvoje ime je od vekomaj.
17 O LORD, why dost Thou make us to err from Thy ways, and hardenest our heart from Thy fear? Return for Thy servants' sake, the tribes of Thine inheritance.
Oh Gospod, zakaj si nam povzročil, da zaidemo s tvojih poti in si naše srce zakrknil pred tvojim strahom? Vrni se zaradi svojih služabnikov, rodov svoje dediščine.
18 Thy holy people they have well nigh driven out, our adversaries have trodden down Thy sanctuary.
Ljudstvo tvoje svetosti ga je imelo v lasti le kratek čas. Naši nasprotniki so pomendrali tvoje svetišče.
19 We are become as they over whom Thou never borest rule, as they that were not called by Thy name.
Mi smo tvoji. Nikoli nisi vladal nad njimi; niso bili imenovani s tvojim imenom.
