Isaiah 64
1 Oh that you would rend the heavens, that you would come down, that the mountains might flow down at your presence,
O da bi razdro nebesa i sišao, da se rastope gore od tebe,
2 As when the melting fire burns, the fire causes the waters to boil, to make your name known to your adversaries, that the nations may tremble at your presence!
Kao što se na ognju razgori granje i voda uzavri od ognja, da ime tvoje poznadu neprijatelji tvoji i da narodi drkæu od tebe.
3 When you did terrible things which we looked not for, you came down, the mountains flowed down at your presence.
Kad si èinio strahote kojima se ne nadasmo, ti si slazio, i gore se rastapahu od tebe.
4 For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither has the eye seen, O God, beside you, what he has prepared for him that waits for him.
Otkako je vijeka ne èu se, niti se ušima dozna, niti oko vidje Boga osim tebe da bi tako uèinio onima koji ga èekaju.
5 You meet him that rejoices and works righteousness, those that remember you in your ways: behold, you are wroth; for we have sinned: in those is continuance, and we shall be saved.
Sretao si onoga koji se raduje tvoreæi pravdu; pominju te na putovima tvojim; gle, ti si se razgnjevio što griješismo; da na njima jednako ostasmo, bismo se spasli.
6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
Ali svi bijasmo kao neèisto što, i sva naša pravda kao neèista haljina; zato opadosmo svi kao list, i bezakonja naša kao vjetar odnesoše nas.
7 And there is none that calls on your name, that stirs up himself to take hold of you: for you have hid your face from us, and have consumed us, because of our iniquities.
Nikoga ne bi da priziva ime tvoje, da ustane da se tebe drži, jer si sakrio lice svoje od nas i rastopio si nas bezakonjem našim.
8 But now, O LORD, you are our father; we are the clay, and you our potter; and we all are the work of your hand.
Ali sada, Gospode, ti si naš otac; mi smo kao, a ti si naš lonèar, i svi smo djelo ruku tvojih.
9 Be not wroth very sore, O LORD, neither remember iniquity for ever: behold, see, we beseech you, we are all your people.
Gospode, ne gnjevi se veoma, i ne pominji dovijeka bezakonja; evo, pogledaj; mi smo svi tvoj narod.
10 Your holy cities are a wilderness, Zion is a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
Gradovi svetosti tvoje opustješe; Sion opustje, Jerusalim posta pustoš.
11 Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised you, is burned up with fire: and all our pleasant things are laid waste.
Dom naše svetinje i naše krasote, u kom te slaviše oci naši, izgorje ognjem, i sve što nam bješe drago potrveno je.
12 Will you refrain yourself for these things, O LORD? will you hold your peace, and afflict us very sore?
Hoæeš li se na to uzdržati, Gospode, i muèati, i jednako nas muèiti?
