Isaiah 64
1 Oh that you would tear the heavens, that you would come down, that the mountains might quake at your presence,
O da bi razdro nebesa i sišao, da se rastope gore od tebe,
2 as when fire kindles the brushwood, and the fire causes the waters to boil; to make your name known to your adversaries, that the nations may tremble at your presence.
Kao što se na ognju razgori granje i voda uzavri od ognja, da ime tvoje poznadu neprijatelji tvoji i da narodi drkæu od tebe.
3 When you did awesome things which we did not look for, you came down, the mountains quaked at your presence.
Kad si èinio strahote kojima se ne nadasmo, ti si slazio, i gore se rastapahu od tebe.
4 Since ancient times no one has heard, and no ear has perceived, and no eye has seen a God besides you, who works for him who waits for him.
Otkako je vijeka ne èu se, niti se ušima dozna, niti oko vidje Boga osim tebe da bi tako uèinio onima koji ga èekaju.
5 You meet him who rejoices and works righteousness, those who remember you in your ways. Look, you were angry, and we sinned. We have been in sin for a long time; and shall we be saved?
Sretao si onoga koji se raduje tvoreæi pravdu; pominju te na putovima tvojim; gle, ti si se razgnjevio što griješismo; da na njima jednako ostasmo, bismo se spasli.
6 For we have all become as one who is unclean, and all our righteousness is as a polluted garment: and we all fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away.
Ali svi bijasmo kao neèisto što, i sva naša pravda kao neèista haljina; zato opadosmo svi kao list, i bezakonja naša kao vjetar odnesoše nas.
7 There is none who calls on your name, who stirs up himself to take hold of you; for you have hidden your face from us, and have consumed us by means of our iniquities.
Nikoga ne bi da priziva ime tvoje, da ustane da se tebe drži, jer si sakrio lice svoje od nas i rastopio si nas bezakonjem našim.
8 But now, Jehovah, you are our Father, and we are clay, and you are our potter; and we all are the work of your hands.
Ali sada, Gospode, ti si naš otac; mi smo kao, a ti si naš lonèar, i svi smo djelo ruku tvojih.
9 Do not be furious, Jehovah, neither remember iniquity forever: see, look, we beg you, we are all your people.
Gospode, ne gnjevi se veoma, i ne pominji dovijeka bezakonja; evo, pogledaj; mi smo svi tvoj narod.
10 Your holy cities have become a wilderness, Zion has become like a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
Gradovi svetosti tvoje opustješe; Sion opustje, Jerusalim posta pustoš.
11 Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised you, is burned with fire; and all our pleasant places are laid waste.
Dom naše svetinje i naše krasote, u kom te slaviše oci naši, izgorje ognjem, i sve što nam bješe drago potrveno je.
12 Will you refrain yourself for these things, Jehovah? Will you hold your peace, and afflict us very severely?
Hoæeš li se na to uzdržati, Gospode, i muèati, i jednako nas muèiti?
