Isaiah 65
1 I allowed myself to be sought by those that asked not; I let myself be found by those that sought me not: I said, Here am I, here am I, unto a nation that called itself not by my name.
Potražiše me koji ne pitahu za me, nađoše me koji me ne tražahu; rekoh: “Evo me! Evo me!” narodu koji ne prizivaše ime moje.
2 I spread out my hands all the time unto a rebellious people, that walk in the way which is not good, after their own thoughts;
Svagda sam pružao ruku narodu odmetničkom, koji hodi putem zlim, za mislima svojim,
3 [To] the people that provoke me to anger to my face continually; that sacrifice in gardens and burn incense upon [altars of] brick,
narodu koji me bez prestanka u lice srdi: žrtvuju po vrtovima, kad prinose na opekama,
4 That sit about among the graves, and lodge in the vaults, that eat the flesh of the swine, and [have] broth of abominations [in] their vessels;
na grobovima stanuju i noće na skrovitim mjestima, jedu svinjetinu, meću u zdjele jela nečista.
5 That say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the time.
I još govore: “Ukloni se! Ne prilazi mi da te ne posvetim.” Oni su mi dim u nosu, oganj što gori povazdan.
6 Behold, it is written before me; I will not keep silence, till I have recompensed, yea, recompensed into their bosom.—
Evo, sve je napisano preda mnom: neću ušutjet' dok im ne platim, dok im ne platim u njedra,
7 Your iniquities and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the Lord, who have burnt incense upon the mountains, and upon the hills have blasphemed me: and I will measure out their work at first into their bosom.
za bezakonja vaša i vaših otaca, sva zajedno - govori Jahve. Koji su prinosili kad na gorama i pogrđivali me na brežuljcima - izmjerit ću im u krilo plaću za djela prijašnja.
8 Thus hath said the Lord, As the new wine is found in the cluster of grapes, and one saith, Destroy it not, for a blessing is in it; so will I do for the sake of my servants, that I will not destroy the whole;
Ovako govori Jahve: “Kao što o soku u grozdu vele: 'Ne uništavajte ga, u njemu je blagoslov!' tako ću učiniti i ja radi slugu svojih, neću sve uništiti.
9 And I let come forth out of Jacob a seed, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains; and my elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.
Izvest ću iz Jakova potomstvo, a iz Jude baštinika gora svojih; baštinit će ih odabranici moji, i moje će se sluge ondje naseliti.
10 And Sharon shall become a fold of flocks, and the valley of 'Achor a resting-place for herds, for my people that have sought me.
Šaron će postati pašnjak ovcama, a nizina akorska počivalište govedima - narodu mojem koji mene traži.
11 But ye who forsake the Lord, who forget my holy mountain, that set out a table for the god of Fortune, and that fill for Destiny the drink-offering.—
A vi koji ste Jahvu ostavili, koji ste zaboravili Svetu goru moju, koji pripremate stol Gadu, koji Meniju naljev lijevate,
12 Yea, I will destine you to the sword, and all of you shall kneel down to the slaughter; because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spoke, ye did not hear; but ye did what is evil in my eyes, and that wherein I had no delight did ye choose.
za mač sam vas odredio - past ćete ničice da vas kolju. Jer zvao sam vas, a vi se niste odazvali, govorio sam, a vi niste slušali, nego ste činili što je zlo u očima mojim, izabirali ste što mi nije po volji.”
13 Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry; behold, my servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty; behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be made ashamed;
Stog ovako Jahve Gospod govori: “Evo, sluge će moje jesti, a vi ćete gladovati. Evo, sluge će moje piti, a vi ćete žeđati. Evo, sluge će se moje veseliti, a vi ćete se stidjeti.
14 Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry out from pain of heart, and from a broken spirit shall ye howl;
Evo, sluge će se moje radovati od sreće u srcu, a vi ćete vikati od boli u srcu i kukati duše slomljene!
15 And ye shall leave behind your name for an oath unto my elect ones, when the Lord Eternal will slay thee; but his servants will he call by another name.
Ime ćete svoje ostaviti za kletvu mojim izabranicima: 'Tako te ubio Jahve!' A sluge svoje on će zvati drugim imenom.
16 Whoever there be that blesseth himself on the earth shall bless himself by the true God; and that sweareth on the earth shall swear by the true God; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hidden from my eyes.
Tko se u zemlji bude blagoslivljao, nek' se blagoslivlje Bogom vjernim. I tko se u zemlji bude kleo, nek' se kune Bogom vjernim. Jer prijašnje će nevolje biti zaboravljene, od očiju mojih bit će sakrivene.
17 For, behold, I will create new heavens and a new earth; and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind;
Jer, evo, ja stvaram nova nebesa i novu zemlju. Prijašnje se više neće spominjati niti će vam na um dolaziti.
18 But be ye glad and rejoice unto all eternity in what I create; for, behold, I will create Jerusalem for rejoicing, and her people for gladness.
Veselite se i dovijeka kličite zbog onoga što ja stvaram; jer, evo, od Jeruzalema stvaram klicanje, od naroda njegova radost.
19 And I will rejoice over Jerusalem, and be glad in my people: and there shall not be heard in her any more the voice of weeping, nor the voice of complaint.
I klicat ću nad Jeruzalemom, radovat' se nad svojim narodom. U njemu više neće čuti ni plača ni vapaja.
20 There shall no more come thence an infant of few days, nor an old man that shall not have the full length of his days; for as a lad shall one die a hundred years old; and as a sinner shall be accursed he who [dieth] at a hundred years old.
U njemu više neće biti novorođenčeta koje živi malo dana ni starca koji ne bi godina svojih navršio: najmlađi će umrijet' kao stogodišnjak, a tko ne doživi stotinu godina prokletim će se smatrati.
21 And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.
Gradit će kuće i stanovat' u njima, saditi vinograde i uživati rod njihov.
22 They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat; for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and the work of their hands shall my elect wear out.
Neće se više graditi da drugi stanuju ni saditi da drugi uživa: vijek naroda moga bit će k'o vijek drveta, izabranici moji dugo će uživati plodove ruku svojih.
23 They shall not toil in vain, nor bring forth unto an early death; for the seed of the blessed of the Lord are they, and their offspring with them.
Neće se zalud mučiti i neće rađati za smrt preranu, jer će oni s potomcima svojim biti rod blagoslovljenika Jahvinih.
24 And it shall come to pass, that before yet they call will I answer; and while they are still speaking will I hear.
Prije nego me zazovu, ja ću im se odazvat'; još će govoriti, a ja ću ih već uslišiti.
25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall like the bullock eat straw: and the serpent—dust shall be his food. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the Lord.
Vuk i jagnje zajedno će pasti, lav će jesti slamu k'o govedo; al' će se zmija prahom hraniti. Nitko neće činiti zla ni štete na svoj Svetoj gori mojoj” - govori Jahve.
