Isaiah 7
1 And it came to pass in the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, [that] Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went up toward Jerusalem to war against it, but could not prevail against it.
U dane judejskoga kralja Ahaza, sina Jotamova, sina Uzijina, aramski kralj Rason i izraelski kralj Pekah, sin Remalijin, zavojštiše na Jeruzalem, ali ga ne mogoše zauzeti.
2 And it was told the house of David, saying, Syria is confederate with Ephraim. And his heart was moved, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the wood are moved with the wind.
Tada dojaviše domu Davidovu: “Aramci se utaborili u Efrajimu.” Na tu vijest uzdrhta srce kraljevo i srce svega naroda, kao što u šumi drveće ustrepti od vjetra.
3 Then said the LORD unto Isaiah, Go forth now to meet Ahaz, thou, and Shear-jashub thy son, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool in the highway of the fuller’s field;
I Jahve reče Izaiji: “Iziđi pred Ahaza, ti i sin tvoj Šear Jašub, do nakraj vodovoda gornjeg ribnjaka na putu u Valjarevo polje.
4 And say unto him, Take heed, and be quiet; fear not, neither be fainthearted for the two tails of these smoking firebrands, for the fierce anger of Rezin with Syria, and of the son of Remaliah.
Reci mu: 'Pazi, smiri se, ne boj se, i nek' ti ne premire srce od ovih dvaju ugaraka zadimljenih, od raspaljenog bijesa Rasona aramskog i sina Remalijina,
5 Because Syria, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah, have taken evil counsel against thee, saying,
jer Aram, Efrajim i sin Remalijin smisliše tvoju propast.'
6 Let us go up against Judah, and vex it, and let us make a breach therein for us, and set a king in the midst of it, [even] the son of Tabeal:
Pođimo, rekoše, na Judeju, uplašimo je i osvojimo da u njoj zakraljimo sina Tabelova.
7 Thus saith the Lord GOD, It shall not stand, neither shall it come to pass.
Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'To se neće zbiti: toga biti neće!
8 For the head of Syria [is] Damascus, and the head of Damascus [is] Rezin; and within threescore and five years shall Ephraim be broken, that it be not a people.
[8a] Damask je glava Aramcima, a Damasku je glava Rason;
9 And the head of Ephraim [is] Samaria, and the head of Samaria [is] Remaliah’s son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not be established.
Samarija je glava Efrajimcima, a Samariji glava je Remalija. [8b]Još šezdeset i pet godina, i Efrajim, razoren, neće više biti narod. [9b] Ako se na me ne oslonite, održat' se nećete!”
10 Moreover the LORD spake again unto Ahaz, saying,
Jahve opet progovori Ahazu i reče mu:
11 Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above. (Sheol h7585)
“Zaišti od Jahve, Boga svoga, jedan znak za sebe iz dubine Podzemlja ili gore iz visina.” (Sheol h7585)
12 But Ahaz said, I will not ask, neither will I tempt the LORD.
Ali Ahaz odgovori: “Ne, neću iskati i neću iskušavati Jahvu.”
13 And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David; [Is it] a small thing for you to weary men, but will ye weary my God also?
Tada reče Izaija: “Čujte, dome Davidov. Zar vam je malo dodijavati ljudima, pa i Bogu mom dodijavate!
14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
Zato, sam će vam Gospodin dati znak: Evo, začet će djevica i roditi sina i nadjenut će mu ime Emanuel!
15 Butter and honey shall he eat, that he may know to refuse the evil, and choose the good.
Vrhnjem i medom on će se hraniti dok ne nauči odbacivat' zlo i birati dobro.
16 For before the child shall know to refuse the evil, and choose the good, the land that thou abhorrest shall be forsaken of both her kings.
Jer prije nego dječak nauči odbacivat' zlo i birati dobro, opustjet će zemlja, zbog koje strepiš, od dvaju kraljeva.
17 The LORD shall bring upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon thy father’s house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim departed from Judah; [even] the king of Assyria.
Protiv tebe i protiv tvog naroda i protiv kuće oca tvojega dovest će Jahve dane kakvih ne bijaše otkad se Efrajim odvoji od Jude - kralja asirskoga.
18 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the LORD shall hiss for the fly that [is] in the uttermost part of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that [is] in the land of Assyria.
U dan onaj zazviždat će Jahve muhama na ušću egipatskih rijeka i pčelama u zemlji asirskoj
19 And they shall come, and shall rest all of them in the desolate valleys, and in the holes of the rocks, and upon all thorns, and upon all bushes.
da dođu i popadaju po strmim dolovima, po rasjelinama stijena, po svim trnjacima i svim pojilištima.
20 In the same day shall the Lord shave with a razor that is hired, [namely], by them beyond the river, by the king of Assyria, the head, and the hair of the feet: and it shall also consume the beard.
U dan onaj Gospod će obrijati britvom najmljenom s onu stranu Eufrata - kraljem asirskim - kosu s glave, dlake s nogu i bradu s obraza.
21 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] a man shall nourish a young cow, and two sheep;
U dan onaj svatko će hraniti po kravu i dvije ovce
22 And it shall come to pass, for the abundance of milk [that] they shall give he shall eat butter: for butter and honey shall every one eat that is left in the land.
i od obilja mlijeka koje će mu dati hranit će se vrhnjem; vrhnjem i medom hranit će se koji god u zemlji preostanu.
23 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] every place shall be, where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silverlings, it shall [even] be for briers and thorns.
U dan onaj gdje god bijaše tisuću čokota, vrijednih tisuću srebrnika, izrast će drač i trnje.
24 With arrows and with bows shall [men] come thither; because all the land shall become briers and thorns.
Onamo će polaziti sa strijelom i lukom, jer sva će zemlja u drač i trnje zarasti.
25 And [on] all hills that shall be digged with the mattock, there shall not come thither the fear of briers and thorns: but it shall be for the sending forth of oxen, and for the treading of lesser cattle.
A po svim gorama gdje se motikom kopalo nitko više neće ići, strašeći se trnja i drača: onuda će goveda pasti i gaziti ovce.”
