Habakkuk 2
1 I will stand at my watch, and set myself on the ramparts, and will look out to see what he will say to me, and what I will answer concerning my complaint.
Na straži svojoj stadoh, i stajah na kuli, i motrah da vidim šta æe mi reæi i šta bih odgovorio onome koji me koraše.
2 The LORD answered me, "Write the vision, and make it plain on tablets, that he who runs may read it.
I odgovori mi Gospod i reèe: piši utvaru, i da bude razgovijetno na ploèama da se lako èita.
3 For the vision is yet for the appointed time, and it hurries toward the end, and won't prove false. Though it takes time, wait for it; because it will surely come, and it won't delay.
Jer æe još biti utvara do odreðenoga vremena, i govoriæe šta æe biti do pošljetka i neæe slagati; ako oklijeva, èekaj je, jer æe zacijelo doæi, i neæe odocniti.
4 Look, if he holds back, my soul has no pleasure in him, but the righteous will live by faith.
Gle, ko se ponosi, njegova duša nije prava u njemu; a pravednik æe od vjere svoje živ biti.
5 And moreover, wealth is treacherous; a proud man will not endure. He enlarges his desire as Sheol, and he is like death, and can't be satisfied. He gathers all nations to himself, and collects to himself all peoples. (Sheol h7585)
A kako vino vara, taki je èovjek ohol, niti ostaje u stanu; jer raširuje duh svoj kao grob, i kao smrt je, koja se ne može nasititi i zbira k sebi sve narode i skuplja k sebi sva plemena. (Sheol h7585)
6 Won't all these take up a parable against him, and a taunting proverb against him, and say, 'Woe to him who increases that which is not his, and who enriches himself by extortion. How long?'
Neæe li ga svi oni uzeti u prièu i u zagonetke, i reæi: teško onom koji umnožava što nije njegovo! dokle æe? i koji trpa na se gusto blato.
7 Won't your debtors rise up suddenly, and wake up those who make you tremble, and you will be their victim?
Neæe li najedanput ustati oni koji æe te gristi? i neæe li se probuditi oni koji æe te rastrzati, i kojima æeš biti grabež?
8 Because you have plundered many nations, all the remnant of the peoples will plunder you, because of men's blood, and for the violence done to the land, to the city and to all who dwell in it.
Što si ti oplijenio mnoge narode, tebe æe oplijeniti sav ostatak od naroda, za krv ljudsku i za nasilje uèinjeno zemlji, gradu i svjema koji žive u njemu.
9 Woe to him who gets an evil gain for his house, that he may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the hand of evil.
Teško onome koji se lakomi na gadan dobitak kuæi svojoj, da postavi gnijezdo svoje na visokom mjestu i saèuva se oda zla.
10 You have devised shame to your house, by cutting off many peoples, and have sinned against your soul.
Smislio si sramotu kuæi svojoj da zatreš mnoge narode, i ogriješio si se o svoju dušu.
11 For the stone will cry out of the wall, and the beam out of the woodwork will answer it.
Jer æe kamen iz zida vikati, i èvor iz drveta svjedoèiæe.
12 Woe to him who builds a town with blood, and establishes a city by iniquity.
Teško onome koji gradi grad krvlju i osniva grad nepravdom!
13 Look, isn't it of the LORD of hosts that the peoples labor for the fire, and the nations weary themselves for vanity?
Gle, nije li od Gospoda nad vojskama da ljudi rade za oganj i narodi se trude ni za što?
14 For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.
Jer æe se zemlja napuniti poznanja slave Gospodnje kao što je more puno vode.
15 "Woe to him who gives his neighbor drink, pouring your inflaming wine until they are drunk, so that you may gaze at their naked bodies.
Teško onome koji poji bližnjega svojega, dodaje mijeh svoj da bi ga opojio i gledao mu golotinju.
16 You are filled with shame, and not glory. You will also drink, and be exposed. The cup of the LORD's right hand will come around to you, and disgrace will cover your glory.
Nasitiæeš se sramote mjesto slave, pij i ti, i otkrij golotinju svoju; doæi æe k tebi èaša u desnici Gospodnjoj, i bljuvotina æe sramna biti na slavi tvojoj.
17 For the violence done to Lebanon will overwhelm you, and the destruction of the animals, which made them afraid; because of men's blood, and for the violence done to the land, to every city and to those who dwell in them.
Jer nasilje uèinjeno Livanu pokriæe te i pustoš meðu zvijerjem koja ga je plašila, za krv ljudsku i nasilje uèinjeno zemlji, gradu i svjema koji žive u njemu.
18 "What value does the engraved image have, that its maker has engraved it; the molten image, even the teacher of lies, that he who fashions its form trusts in it, to make mute idols?
Šta pomaže rezan lik što ga izreza umjetnik njegov? šta liven lik i uèitelj laži, te se umjetnik uzda u djelo svoje gradeæi nijeme idole?
19 Woe to him who says to the wood, 'Awake.' or to the mute stone, 'Arise.' Shall this teach? Look, it is overlaid with gold and silver, and there is no breath at all in its midst.
Teško onome koji govori drvetu: preni se! i nijemu kamenu: probudi se! Hoæe li on uèiti? Eto, obložen je zlatom i srebrom, a nema duha u njemu.
20 But the LORD is in his holy temple. Let all the earth be silent before him."
A Gospod je u svetoj crkvi svojoj; muèi pred njim, sva zemljo!
