< Isaiah 13 >

1 The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz saw:
Breme Babilona, ki ga je videl Izaija, Amócov sin.
2 Set up a banner on the bare mountain. Lift up your voice to them. Wave your hand, that they may go into the gates of the nobles.
Dvignite prapor na visoki gori, povzdignite jim glas, mahajte z roko, da lahko vstopijo v velika vrata plemičev.
3 I have commanded my consecrated ones; I have also called my mighty men to carry out my anger, my proudly exulting ones.
Svojim posvečenim sem zapovedal, zaradi moje jeze sem poklical tudi moje mogočne, celó tiste, ki se razveseljujejo v mojem visočanstvu.
4 The noise of a multitude is in the mountains, as of a great people; the noise of an uproar of the kingdoms of the nations gathered together. YHWH of hosts is mustering the army for the battle.
Hrup množice po gorah kakor od številnega ljudstva, bučen hrup kraljestev narodov, zbranih skupaj. Gospod nad bojevniki pregleduje vojsko za bitko.
5 They come from a far country, from the uttermost part of heaven, even YHWH, and the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land.
Prihajajo iz daljne dežele, od konca neba, celó Gospod in orožja njegovega ogorčenja, da uničijo celotno deželo.
6 Wail; for the day of YHWH is at hand. It will come as destruction from Shaddai.
Tulite, kajti Gospodov dan je pri roki, ta bo prišel kakor uničenje od Vsemogočnega.
7 Therefore all hands will be feeble, and everyone's heart will melt.
Zato bodo vse roke oslabele in srce vsakega človeka se bo stopilo
8 They will be dismayed. Pangs and sorrows will seize them. They will be in pain like a woman in labor. They will look in amazement one at another. Their faces will be faces of flame.
in bali se bodo. Ostre bolečine in bridkosti se jih bodo polastile. V bolečinah bodo kakor ženska, ki je v porodnih mukah. Osupli bodo drug nad drugim, njihovi obrazi bodo kakor plameni.
9 Look, the day of YHWH comes, cruel, with wrath and fierce anger; to make the land a desolation, and to destroy its sinners out of it.
Glej, prihaja Gospodov dan, krut, z besom in silovito jezo, da naredi deželo opustošeno in njene grešnike bo pokončal iz nje.
10 For the stars of the sky and its constellations will not give their light. The sun will be darkened in its going forth, and the moon will not cause its light to shine.
Kajti zvezde neba in njegova ozvezdja ne bodo dajala svoje svetlobe. Sonce bo otemnelo v svojem vzhajanju in luna svoji svetlobi ne bo povzročila, da sveti.
11 I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity. I will cause the arrogance of the proud to cease, and will humble the haughtiness of the terrible.
Zemeljski [krog] bom kaznoval zaradi njihovega zla in zlobne zaradi njihove krivičnosti in povzročil bom, da se aroganca ponosnih konča in ponižal bom oholost strašnih.
12 I will make people more rare than fine gold, even a person than the pure gold of Ophir.
Človeka bom naredil dragocenejšega kakor čisto zlato, celo človeka kakor zlat klin iz Ofírja.
13 Therefore I will make the heavens tremble, and the earth will be shaken out of its place in the wrath of YHWH of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.
Zato bom stresel nebo in zemlja se bo odmaknila iz svojega mesta, v besu Gospoda nad bojevniki in na dan njegove krute jeze.
14 It will happen that like a hunted gazelle, and like sheep that no one gathers, they will each turn to their own people, and will each flee to their own land.
In bo kakor preganjana srna in kakor ovca, ki je nihče ne ujame. Obrnili se bodo vsak človek k svojemu lastnemu ljudstvu in vsak bo bežal v svojo lastno deželo.
15 Everyone who is found will be thrust through. Everyone who is captured will fall by the sword.
Vsak, kdor je najden, bo preboden in vsak, kdor jim je pridružen, bo padel pod mečem.
16 Their infants also will be dashed in pieces before their eyes. Their houses will be ransacked, and their wives raped.
Tudi njihovi otroci bodo razbiti na koščke pred njihovimi očmi, njihove hiše bodo oplenjene in njihove žene posiljene.
17 Look, I will stir up the Medes against them, who will not value silver, and as for gold, they will not delight in it.
Glej, zoper njih bom razvnel Medijce, ki se ne bodo ozirali na srebro in glede zlata, v njem se ne bodo razveseljevali.
18 Their bows will dash the young men in pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb. Their eyes will not spare children.
Tudi njihovi loki bodo mladeniče raztreščili na koščke in ne bodo imeli usmiljenja do sadu maternice; njihovo oko ne bo prizaneslo otrokom.
19 Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldeans' pride, will be like when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.
Babilon, slava kraljestev, lepota kaldejske odličnosti, bo kakor, ko je Bog razdejal Sódomo in Gomóro.
20 It will never be inhabited, neither will it be lived in from generation to generation. The Arabian will not pitch a tent there, neither will shepherds make their flocks lie down there.
Ta ne bo nikoli naseljen niti se ne bo prebivalo v njem od roda do roda, niti tam Arabec ne bo postavil šotora, niti tam pastirji ne bodo postavljali svojih staj.
21 But wild animals of the desert will lie there, and their houses will be full of jackals. Ostriches will dwell there, and wild goats will frolic there.
Temveč bodo tam ležale divje puščavske živali in njihove hiše bodo polne otožnih živih ustvarjenih bitij in sove bodo prebivale tam in kozjenogi bodo tam plesali.
22 Wolves will cry in their fortresses, and jackals in the pleasant palaces. Her time is near to come, and her days will not be prolonged.
Divje živali z otokov bodo klicale v njihovih zapuščenih hišah in zmaji v njihovih prijetnih palačah in njen čas je blizu, da pride in njeni dnevi ne bodo podaljšani.
