Esias 5
1 Now I will sing to [my] beloved a song of my beloved concerning my vineyard. [My] beloved had a vineyard on a high hill in a fertile place.
Zapjevat ću svojemu dragome, pjesmu svog ljubljenog njegovu vinogradu. Moj je dragi imao vinograd na brežuljku rodnome.
2 And I made a hedge round it, and dug a trench, and planted a choice vine, and built a tower in the midst of it, and dug a place for the wine-vat in it: and I waited [for it] to bring forth grapes, and it brought forth thorns.
Okopa ga, iskrči kamenje, posadi ga lozom plemenitom. Posred njega kulu on podiže i u nj tijesak metnu. Nadaše se da će uroditi grožđem, a on izrodi vinjagu.
3 And now, you dwellers in Jerusalem, and [every] man of Juda, judge between me and my vineyard.
Sad, žitelji jeruzalemski i ljudi Judejci, presudite izmeđ' mene i vinograda mojega.
4 What shall I do any more to my vineyard, that I have not done to it? Whereas I expected [it] to bring forth grapes, but it has brought forth thorns.
Što još mogoh učiniti za svoj vinograd a da nisam učinio? Nadah se da će uroditi grožđem, zašto vinjagu izrodi?
5 And now I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard: I will take away its hedge, and it shall be for a spoil; and I will pull down its walls, and it shall be [left] to be trodden down.
No sad ću vam reći što ću učiniti od svog vinograda: plot ću mu soriti da ga opustoše, zidinu razvaliti da ga izgaze.
6 And I will forsake my vineyard; and it shall not be pruned, nor dug, and thorns shall come up upon it as on barren land; and I will command the clouds to rain no rain upon it.
U pustoš ću ga obratiti, ni obrezana ni okopana, nek' u drač i trnje sav zaraste; zabranit ću oblacima da dažde nad njime.
7 For the vineyard of the Lord of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Juda [his] beloved plant: I expected [it] to bring forth judgment, and it brought forth iniquity; and not righteousness, but a cry.
Vinograd Jahve nad Vojskama dom je Izraelov; izabrani nasad njegov ljudi Judejci. Nadao se pravdi, a eto nepravde, nadao se pravičnosti, a eto vapaja.
8 Woe [to them] that join house to house, and add field to field, that they may take away something of their neighbor's: will you dwell alone upon the land?
Jao vama koji kuću kući primičete i polje s poljem sastavljate, dok sve mjesto ne zauzmete te postanete jedini u zemlji.
9 For these things have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts: for though many houses should be built, many and fair houses shall be desolate, and there shall be no inhabitants in them.
Na uši moje reče Jahve nad Vojskama: “Doista, mnoge će kuće opustjeti, velike i lijepe, bit će bez žitelja.
10 For where ten yoke of oxen plow [the land] shall yield one, and he that sows six homers shall produce three measures.
Deset rali vinograda dat će samo bačvicu, mjera sjemena dat će samo mjericu.”
11 Woe [to them] that rise up in the morning, and follow strong drink; who wait [at it till] evening: for the wine shall inflame them.
Jao onima što već jutrom na uranku žestokim se pićem zalijevaju i kasno noću sjede vinom raspaljeni.
12 For they drink wine with harp, and lute, and drums, and pipes: but they regard not the works of the Lord, and consider not the works of his hands.
Na gozbama im harfe i citare, bubnjevi i frule uz vino, a za djelo Jahvino ne mare, ne gledaju djelo ruku njegovih.
13 Therefore my people have been taken captive, because they know not the Lord: and there has been a multitude of dead [bodies], because of hunger and of thirst for water.
Stoga će u ropstvo narod moj odvesti, jer nema razumnosti, odličnici njegovi od gladi će umirati, puk njegov od žeđi će gorjeti.
14 Therefore hell has enlarged its desire and opened its mouth without ceasing: and her glorious and great, and her rich and her pestilent men shall go down [into it]. (Sheol h7585)
Da, Podzemlje će razvaliti ždrijelo, razjapit će ralje neizmjerne da se u njih strmoglave odličnici mu i mnoštvo sa svom grajom i veseljem! (Sheol h7585)
15 And the mean man shall be brought low, and the great man shall be disgraced, and the lofty eyes shall be brought low.
Smrtnik će nikom poniknuti, ponizit' se čovjek, oborit će se pogled silnih.
16 But the Lord of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and the holy God shall be glorified in righteousness.
Jahve nad Vojskama uzvisit će se sudom, i Bog će sveti otkrit' svetost svoju.
17 And they that were spoiled shall be fed as bulls, and lambs shall feed on the waste places of them that are taken away.
Jaganjci će pasti kao na pašnjacima, a jarci će brstiti po ruševinama bogataškim.
18 Woe [to them] that draw sins to them as with a long rope, and iniquities as with a thong of the heifer's yoke:
Jao onima koji na se krivnju vuku volovskom užadi i grijeh kolskim konopcem -
19 who say, Let him speedily hasten what he will do, that we may see [it]: and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel come, that we may know [it].
onima što govore: “Neka pohiti, neka poteče s djelom svojim da bismo ga vidjeli, neka se približi i završi naum Sveca Izraelova da bismo znali!”
20 Woe [to them] that call evil good, and good evil; who make darkness light, and light darkness; who make bitter sweet, and sweet bitter.
Jao onima koji zlo dobrom nazivaju, a dobro zlom, koji od tame svjetlost prave, a od svjetlosti tamu, koji gorko slatkim čine, a slatko gorkim!
21 Woe [to them] that are wise in their own conceit, and knowing in their own sight.
Jao onima koji su mudri u svojim očima i pametni sami pred sobom!
22 Woe to the strong [ones] of you that drink wine, and the mighty [ones] that mingle strong drink:
Jao onima koji su jaki u vinu i junaci u miješanju jakih pića;
23 who justify the ungodly for rewards, and take away the righteousness of the righteous.
onima koji za mito brane krivca, a pravedniku uskraćuju pravdu!
24 Therefore as stubble shall be burnt by a coal of fire, and shall be consumed by a violent flame, their root shall be as chaff, and their flower shall go up as dust: for they rejected the law of the Lord of hosts, and insulted the word of the Holy One of Israel.
Zato, kao što plameni jezici proždiru slamu i kao što nestaje suha trava u plamenu, tako će korijen njihov istrunuti, poput praha razletjet' se pupoljak njihov, jer odbaciše Zakon Jahve nad Vojskama i prezreše riječ Sveca Izraelova.
25 Therefore the Lord of hosts was greatly angered against his people, and he reached forth his hand upon them, and struck them: and the mountains were troubled, and their carcasses were as dung in the midst of the way: yet for all this his anger has not been turned away, but his hand is yet raised.
Zato se raspali gnjev Jahvin protiv njegova naroda, i on diže ruku na nj i udari ga te se potresoše gore: trupla njihova leže k'o smeće po ulicama, ali gnjev se njegov još ne smiri, ruka mu je sveđer podignuta.
26 Therefore shall he lift up a signal to the nations that are afar, and shall hiss for them from the end of the earth; and, behold, they are coming very quickly.
On podiže stijeg ratni narodu dalekom, zazviždi mu na kraj zemlje, i gle: brzo, spremno hita.
27 They shall not hunger nor be weary, neither shall they slumber nor sleep; neither shall they loose their girdles from their loins, neither shall their shoe-latchets be broken.
U njemu nema trudna ni sustala, ni dremljiva niti snena, oko boka pojas ne otpasuje, na obući ne driješi remena.
28 Whose arrows are sharp, and their bows bent; their horses' hoofs are counted as solid rock: their chariot-wheels are as a storm.
Strijele su mu dobro zašiljene, lukovi mu svi zapeti, kremen su kopita konja njegovih, vihor su točkovi bojnih mu kola.
29 They rage as lions, and draw near as a lion's whelps: and he shall seize, and roar as a wild beast, and he shall cast [them] forth, and there shall be none to deliver them.
Rika mu je k'o u lava i riče k'o lavovi mladi, reži, grabi plijen i odnosi, a nikoga da mu ga istrgne.
30 And he shall roar on account of them in that day, as the sound of the swelling sea; and they shall look to the land, and, behold, [there shall be] thick darkness in their perplexity.
U dan onaj režat će na njega k'o što more buči. Pogledaš li zemlju - sve tmina, tjeskoba, svjetlost proguta tmina oblačna.
