< Isaiah 27 >

1 IN that day the Lord with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea.
U onaj dan kaznit će Jahve mačem ljutim, velikim i jakim Levijatana, zmiju hitru, Levijatana, zmiju vijugavu, i ubit će zmaja morskoga.
2 In that day sing ye unto her, A vineyard of red wine.
U onaj dan pjevajte mu, vinogradu vinorodnom:
3 I the Lord do keep it; I will water it every moment: lest any hurt it, I will keep it night and day.
Ja, Jahve, njega čuvam, svaki čas ga zalijevam, i da ga tko ne ošteti, danju i noću stražim.
4 Fury is not in me: who would set the briers and thorns against me in battle? I would go through them, I would burn them together.
Nema gnjeva u meni! Nek' se trnje i drač samo pojavi, protiv njega ustat ću u boj, svega ću ga sažgati!
5 Or let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me; and he shall make peace with me.
Ili u moje nek' dođe okrilje, neka sklopi mir sa mnom, mir neka sklopi sa mnom!
6 He shall cause them that come of Jacob to take root: Israel shall blossom and bud, and fill the face of the world with fruit.
Dolaze dani kad će se ukorijeniti Jakov, razgranit' se i procvasti Izrael, i sav svijet plodovima napuniti.
7 Hath he smitten him, as he smote those that smote him? or is he slain according to the slaughter of them that are slain by him?
Je li ga udario kako udari one koji njega udarahu? Je li ga ubio kako ubi one koji njega ubiše?
8 In measure, when it shooteth forth, thou wilt debate with it: he stayeth his rough wind in the day of the east wind.
Za kaznu ga potjera, izagna, odnese ga silnim dahom svojim u dan istočnjaka.
9 By this therefore shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged; and this is all the fruit to take away his sin; when he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in sunder, the groves and images shall not stand up.
Tako će se okajati bezakonje Jakovljevo; a ovo je sve plod oproštenja grijeha njegova. Neka se smrve svi kamenovi žrtvenika kao što se u prah drobi krečno kamenje! Nek' se više ne dižu ašere i sunčani stupovi!
10 Yet the defenced city shall be desolate, and the habitation forsaken, and left like a wilderness: there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume the branches thereof.
Jer opustje tvrdi grad, naselje je poharano, napušteno kao pustinja. Telad ondje pase - leži ondje, grmlje brsti.
11 When the boughs thereof are withered, they shall be broken off: the women come, and set them on fire: for it is a people of no understanding: therefore he that made them will not have mercy on them, and he that formed them will shew them no favour.
Kad mu se osuše grane, lome ih, dolaze žene i oganj pale. Jer to je narod nerazuman, zato ga neće žaliti Stvoritelj, Tvorac mu se neće smilovati.
12 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall beat off from the channel of the river unto the stream of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel.
Jahve će u dan onaj klasje vrijeći od Eufrata do Potoka egipatskog, i bit ćete pobrani jedan po jedan, djeco Izraelova.
13 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the great trumpet shall be blown, and they shall come which were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and shall worship the Lord in the holy mount at Jerusalem.
U onaj dan zatrubit će velika trublja, i doći će izgubljeni u zemlji asirskoj, i koji bijahu izgnani u zemlju egipatsku, i poklonit će se Jahvi na Svetoj gori, u Jeruzalemu.
