< Isaiah 10 >

1 “Woe [to] those decreeing decrees of iniquity, And writers who have prescribed perverseness,
Jao onima koji izdaju odredbe nepravedne, koji ispisuju propise tlačiteljske;
2 Of My people, That widows may be their prey, That they may spoil the fatherless.
koji uskraćuju pravdu ubogima i otimlju pravo sirotinji mog naroda, da oplijene udovice, da opljačkaju sirote!
3 And what do you do at a day of inspection? And at desolation that comes from afar? Near whom do you flee for help? And where do you leave your glory?
Što ćete činiti u dan kazne kad izdaleka propast dođe? Kom ćete se za pomoć uteći, gdje ostaviti blago svoje
4 It has bowed down without Me In the place of a bound one, And they fall in the place of the slain.” With all this His anger has not turned back, And His hand is still stretched out.
da se ne morate među roblje pognuti, pasti među poklanima? Na sve to gnjev se njegov neće smiriti, ruka će mu ostat' ispružena.
5 “Woe [to] Asshur, a rod of My anger, And My indignation [is] a staff in their hand.
Jao Asiru, šibi gnjeva mojega, prutu kojim srdžba moja zamahuje!
6 I send him against a profane nation, And concerning a people of My wrath I charge him, To spoil spoil, and to seize prey, And to make it a treading-place as the clay of out places.
Na puk ga poslah nevjeran, na narod što me razjari, da ga oplijeni i opljačka, da ga izgazi k'o blato na ulici.
7 And he does not think [it] so, And his heart does not reckon [it] so, For—to destroy [is] in his heart, And to cut off nations—not a few.
Ali on nije tako mislio i u srcu nije tako sudio, već u srcu zasnova zator, istrebljenje mnogih naroda.
8 For he says, Are my princes not altogether kings?
Govoraše: “Nisu li svi knezovi moji kraljevi?
9 Is not Calno as Carchemish? Is not Hamath as Arpad? Is not Samaria as Damascus?
Nije li Kalno kao Karkemiš? Nije li Hamat kao Arpad, Samarija kao Damask?
10 As my hand has gotten to the kingdoms of a worthless thing, and their carved images, [Greater] than Jerusalem and than Samaria,
Kao što mi ruka dosegnu kraljevstva kumira, bogatija kipovima od Jeruzalema i Samarije,
11 Do I not—as I have done to Samaria, And to her worthless things, So do to Jerusalem and to her grievous things?”
kao što učinih sa Samarijom i kumirima njenim, neću li učiniti s Jeruzalemom i s likovima njegovim?”
12 And it has come to pass, When the Lord fulfills all His work In Mount Zion and in Jerusalem, I see concerning the fruit of the greatness Of the heart of the king of Asshur, And concerning the glory of the height of his eyes.
I kad dovrši Gospod sve djelo svoje na gori Sionu i u Jeruzalemu, kaznit će plod ohola srca kralja asirskog i drskost njegovih ponositih očiju.
13 For he has said, “I have worked by the power of my hand, And by my wisdom, for I have been intelligent, And I remove borders of the peoples, And I have spoiled their chief ones, And I put down the inhabitants as a mighty one,
Jer reče: “Učinih snagom svoje ruke i mudrošću svojom, jer sam uman; uklonih međe narodima i blaga njihova opljačkah, kao junak oborih one što sjede na prijestoljima.
14 And my hand gets to the wealth of the peoples as to a nest, And as a gathering of forsaken eggs I have gathered all the earth, And there has not been one moving wing, Or opening mouth, or whispering.”
Ruka moja kao gnijezda zgrabi bogatstva naroda. Kao što se kÓupe ostavljena jaja, zemlju svu sam pokupio i nikog ne bi krilima da zalepeće, kljun otvori, zapijuče.”
15 Does the axe glorify itself Against him who is hewing with it? Does the saw magnify itself Against him who is shaking it? As a rod waving those lifting it up! As a staff lifting up that which is not wood!
Zar se hvali sjekira povrh onog koji njome siječe? Hoće li se oholit' pila povrh onog koji njome pili? K'o da šiba maše onim koji je podiže, il' štap diže onog koji drvo nije;
16 Therefore the Lord, the Lord of Hosts, Sends leanness among his fat ones, And under his glory He kindles a burning As the burning of a fire.
Jahve nad Vojskama poslat će stoga gojaznima njegovim skončanje, slavu će mu ognjem potpaliti, kao što se vatra potpiruje.
17 And the light of Israel has been for a fire, And his Holy One for a flame, And it has burned, and devoured his thorn And his brier in one day.
Svjetlost Izraelova bit će poput ognja, Svetac njegov kao plamen koji će zapalit' i proždrijeti drač njegov i trnje njegovo u jednome danu.
18 And the glory of his forest, and his fruitful field, He consumes from soul even to flesh, And it has been as the fainting of a standard-bearer.
I krasotu njegovih šuma i voćnjaka uništit će od srčike do kore, ona će biti k'o bolesnik što se trne;
19 And the rest of the trees of his forest [are] few, And a youth writes them.
ostatak stabala šumskih bit će lako izbrojiti - dijete će ih lako popisati.
20 And it has come to pass in that day, The remnant of Israel, And the escaped of the house of Jacob, Do not add anymore to lean on its striker, And have leaned on YHWH, The Holy One of Israel, in truth.
U onaj dan: Ostatak Izraelov i preživjeli iz kuće Jakovljeve neće se više oslanjati na onoga koji ih bije, već će se iskreno oslanjati na Jahvu, Sveca Izraelova.
21 A remnant returns—a remnant of Jacob, To the Mighty God.
Ostatak će se vratiti, ostatak Jakovljev Bogu jakome.
22 For though your people Israel be as the sand of the sea, A remnant of it returns, A consumption determined, Overflowing [with] righteousness.
Zaista, o Izraele, sve da naroda tvojega ima kao pijeska u moru, samo će se Ostatak njegov vratiti. Određeno je uništenje, pravda se prelila,
23 For a consumption that is determined, The Lord, YHWH of Hosts, Is making in the midst of all the land.
Jahve, Gospod nad Vojskama, poharat će, kako odredi, svu zemlju.
24 Therefore, thus said the Lord, YHWH of Hosts: “Do not be afraid, My people, inhabiting Zion, because of Asshur, He strikes you with a rod, And his staff lifts up against you, in the way of Egypt.
Zato ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama: “O narode moj što prebivaš na Sionu, ne boj se Asira kad te šibom tuče, kad štap diže na tebe.
25 For yet a very little [while], And the indignation has been completed, And My anger by their wearing out.”
Jer, još malo, vrlo malo, i gnjev moj će prestati, moja će ih jarost uništiti.”
26 And YHWH of Hosts is awaking for him, A scourge like the striking of Midian at the rock Oreb, And his rod [is] over the sea, And he has lifted it in the way of Egypt.
Na nj će Jahve nad Vojskama bičem zamahnuti, kao kad udari Midjan na stijeni Orebu, i štap će dići nad more k'o na putu egipatskom.
27 And it has come to pass in that day, His burden is turned from off your shoulder, And his yoke from off your neck, And the yoke has been destroyed, because of prosperity.
U onaj dan: s leđa će ti breme pasti i jaram njegov s vrata će ti nestat'.
28 He has come in against Aiath, He has passed over into Migron, At Michmash he looks after his vessels.
Ide on od Rimona, dolazi na Ajat, prelazi Migron, u Mikmasu breme odlaže.
29 They have gone over the passage, They have made Geba a lodging place, Rama has trembled, Gibeah of Saul fled.
Prelaze klance, u Gebi im je noćište; Rama dršće, Gibea Šaulova bježi.
30 Cry aloud [with] your voice, daughter of Gallim, Give attention, Laish! Answer her, Anathoth.
Viči iza glasa, Bat Galime! Slušaj ga, Lajšo! Odgovori mu, Anatote!
31 Madmenah has fled away, The inhabitants of the high places have hardened themselves.
Madmena pobježe, utekoše stanovnici gebimski.
32 Yet today to remain in Nob, The mountain of the daughter of Zion waves its hand, The hill of Jerusalem.
Još danas zaustavit će se u Nobu, rukom prijeti gori Kćeri sionske, Brijegu jeruzalemskom.
33 Behold, the Lord, YHWH of Hosts, Is lopping a branch with violence, And the high of stature are cut down, And the lofty have become low,
Gle, Jahve, Gospod nad Vojskama, kreše grane silom strahovitom: najviši su vršci posječeni, ponajviši sniženi.
34 And He has gone around the thickets of the forest with iron, And Lebanon falls by a mighty one!
Pod sjekirom pada šumska guštara, sa slavom svojom pada Libanon.

< Isaiah 10 >
