< Isaiah 6 >

1 In the year of king 'Uzziyahu's death I saw the Lord sitting upon a high and exalted throne, and his train filled the temple.
One godine kad umrije kralj Uzija, vidjeh Gospoda gdje sjedi na prijestolju visoku i uzvišenu. Skuti njegova plašta ispunjahu Svetište.
2 Seraphim were standing around him, each one had six wings; with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two did he fly.
Iznad njega stajahu serafi; svaki je imao po šest krila: dva krila da zakloni lice, dva da zakrije noge, a dvama je krilima letio.
3 And one called unto the other, and said, Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory.
I klicahu jedan drugome: “Svet! Svet! Svet Jahve nad Vojskama! Puna je sva zemlja Slave njegove!”
4 And the posts of the threshold shook at the voice of those that called aloud, and the house was filled with smoke.
Od gromka glasa onih koji klicahu stresoše se dovraci na pragovima, a Dom se napuni dimom.
5 And I said, Woe is me! for I am lost; because a man of unclean lips am I, and in the midst of a people of unclean lips do I dwell; for the King, the Lord of hosts have my eyes seen.
Rekoh: “Jao meni, propadoh, jer čovjek sam nečistih usana, u narodu nečistih usana prebivam, a oči mi vidješe Kralja, Jahvu nad Vojskama!”
6 Then flew unto me one of the seraphim, and in his hand was a live coal, with the tongs had he taken it from off the altar:
Jedan od serafa doletje k meni: u ruci mu žerava koju uze kliještima sa žrtvenika;
7 And he touched therewith upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thy iniquity is departed, and thy sin is forgiven.
dotače se njome mojih usta i reče: “Evo, usne je tvoje dotaklo, krivica ti je skinuta i grijeh oprošten.”
8 And I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? And I said, Here am I: send me.
Tad čuh glas Gospodnji: “Koga da pošaljem? I tko će nam poći?” Ja rekoh: “Evo me, mene pošalji!”
9 And he said, Go, and say unto this people, Hear indeed, but understand not; and see indeed, but know not.
On odgovori: “Idi i reci tom narodu: 'Slušajte dobro, al' nećete razumjeti, gledajte dobro, al' nećete spoznati.'
10 Obdurate will remain the heart of this people, and their ears will be heavy, and their eyes will be shut: so that they will not see with their eyes, nor hear with their ears, nor their hearts be understanding, so that they be converted, and healing be granted them.
Otežaj salom srce tom narodu, ogluši mu uši, zaslijepi oči, da očima ne vidi, da ušima ne čuje i srcem da ne razumije kako bi se obratio i ozdravio.”
11 And I said, How long, O Lord? And he said, Until that cities be left waste without an inhabitant, and houses without man, and the soil be made desolate as a wilderness,
Ja rekoh: “Dokle, o Gospode?” On mi odgovori: “Dok gradovi ne opuste i ne ostanu bez žitelja, dok kuće ne budu bez ikoga živa, i zemlja ne postane pustoš,
12 And the Lord will have removed far away the men, and the depopulation be great in the midst of the land.
dok Jahve daleko ne protjera ljude. Haranje veliko pogodit će zemlju,
13 And should a tenth part thereof yet remain, it will again be swept away: [yet] like the terebinth and the oak, which, when they cast their leaves, retain their stems, so remaineth the holy seed, its stem.
i ostane li u njoj još desetina, i ona će biti zatrta poput duba kad ga do panja posijeku. Panj će njihov biti sveto sjeme.”
