Isaiah 38

1 In those days was Hezekiah sick to death. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came to him, and said to him, Thus says the LORD, Set your house in order: for you shall die, and not live.

U to vrijeme razbolje se Jezekija na smrt; i doðe k njemu prorok Isaija sin Amosov i reèe mu: ovako veli Gospod: naredi za kuæu svoju, jer æeš umrijeti i neæeš ostati živ.

2 Then Hezekiah turned his face toward the wall, and prayed to the LORD,

A Jezekija se okrete licem k zidu, i pomoli se Gospodu,

3 And said, Remember now, O LORD, I beseech you, how I have walked before you in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in your sight. And Hezekiah wept sore.

I reèe: oh, Gospode, opomeni se da sam jednako hodio pred tobom vjerno i s cijelijem srcem, i tvorio što je tebi ugodno. I plaka Jezekija veoma.

4 Then came the word of the LORD to Isaiah, saying,

Tada doðe rijeè Gospodnja Isaiji govoreæi:

5 Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus says the LORD, the God of David your father, I have heard your prayer, I have seen your tears: behold, I will add to your days fifteen years.

Idi i reci Jezekiji: ovako veli Gospod Bog Davida oca tvojega: èuo sam molitvu tvoju, i vidio sam suze tvoje, evo dodaæu ti vijeku petnaest godina.

6 And I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria: and I will defend this city.

I izbaviæu tebe i ovaj grad iz ruku cara Asirskoga, i braniæu ovaj grad.

7 And this shall be a sign to you from the LORD, that the LORD will do this thing that he has spoken;

I ovo neka ti bude znak od Gospoda da æe uèiniti Gospod što je rekao.

8 Behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down.

Evo ja æu vratiti sjen po koljencima po kojima je sišao na sunèaniku Ahazovu natrag za deset koljenaca. I vrati se sunce za deset koljenaca po koljencima po kojima bijaše sišlo.

9 The writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, when he had been sick, and was recovered of his sickness:

Ovo napisa Jezekija car Judin kad se razbolje, i ozdravi od bolesti svoje:

10 I said in the cutting off of my days, I shall go to the gates of the grave: I am deprived of the residue of my years. (Sheol h7585)

Ja rekoh, kad se presjekoše dani moji: idem k vratima grobnijem, uze mi se ostatak godina mojih. (Sheol h7585)

11 I said, I shall not see the LORD, even the LORD, in the land of the living: I shall behold man no more with the inhabitants of the world.

Rekoh: neæu vidjeti Gospoda Gospoda u zemlji živijeh, neæu više vidjeti èovjeka meðu onima koji stanuju na svijetu.

12 My age is departed, and is removed from me as a shepherd’s tent: I have cut off like a weaver my life: he will cut me off with pining sickness: from day even to night will you make an end of me.

Vijek moj proðe i prenese se od mene kao šator pastirski; presjekoh život svoj kao tkaè, otsjeæi æe me od osnutka; od jutra do veèera uèiniæeš mi kraj.

13 I reckoned till morning, that, as a lion, so will he break all my bones: from day even to night will you make an end of me.

Mišljah za jutra da æe kao lav potrti sve kosti moje; od jutra do veèera uèiniæeš mi kraj.

14 Like a crane or a swallow, so did I chatter: I did mourn as a dove: my eyes fail with looking upward: O LORD, I am oppressed; undertake for me.

Pištah kao ždrao i kao lastavica, ukah kao golubica, oèi mi išèilješe gledajuæi gore: Gospode, u nevolji sam, oblakšaj mi.

15 What shall I say? he has both spoken to me, and himself has done it: I shall go softly all my years in the bitterness of my soul.

Šta da reèem? On mi kaza, i uèini. Proživjeæu sve godine svoje po jadu duše svoje.

16 O LORD, by these things men live, and in all these things is the life of my spirit: so will you recover me, and make me to live.

Gospode, o tom se živi i u tom je svemu život duha mojega, iscijelio si me i saèuvao u životu.

17 Behold, for peace I had great bitterness: but you have in love to my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption: for you have cast all my sins behind your back.

Evo, na mir doðe mi ljut jad; ali tebi bi milo da izvuèeš dušu moju iz jame pogibli, jer si bacio za leða svoja sve grijehe moje.

18 For the grave cannot praise you, death can not celebrate you: they that go down into the pit cannot hope for your truth. (Sheol h7585)

Jer neæe grob tebe slaviti, neæe te smrt hvaliti, i koji siðu u grob ne nadaju se tvojoj istini. (Sheol h7585)

19 The living, the living, he shall praise you, as I do this day: the father to the children shall make known your truth.

Živi, živi, oni æe te slaviti kao ja danas: otac æe sinovima javljati istinu tvoju.

20 The LORD was ready to save me: therefore we will sing my songs to the stringed instruments all the days of our life in the house of the LORD.

Gospod me spase, zato æemo pjevati pjesme moje u domu Gospodnjem dok smo god živi.

21 For Isaiah had said, Let them take a lump of figs, and lay it for a plaster on the boil, and he shall recover.

A Isaija bješe rekao da uzmu grudu suhih smokava i priviju na otok, te æe ozdraviti.

22 Hezekiah also had said, What is the sign that I shall go up to the house of the LORD?

I Jezekija bješe rekao: šta æe biti znak da æu otiæi u dom Gospodnji?
