< Isaiah 34 >
1 Draw near, O ye nations, and hear! Attend, O ye people! Let the earth hear, and all that is therein; The world, and all that springs from it!
Pristupite, puci, da čujete, pomno slušajte, narodi; čuj, zemljo, i sve što te ispunja, kruže zemaljski i sve što raste po tebi!
2 For the wrath of Jehovah is kindled against all the nations, And his fury against all their armies; He hath devoted them to destruction; He hath given them up to slaughter.
Jer razgnjevi se Jahve na sve narode, razjari se na svu vojsku njihovu. Izruči ih uništenju, pokolju ih predade.
3 Their slain shall be cast out; From their carcasses their stench shall ascend, And the mountains shall flow down with their blood.
Leže njihovi pobijeni, smrad se diže od trupla mnogih, krv gorama proteče,
4 And all the hosts of heaven shall melt away; And the heavens shall be rolled up like a scroll, And all their host shall fall down, As the withered leaf faileth from the vine, As the blighted fruit from the fig-tree.
raspade se sva vojska nebeska. Nebesa se sviše kao knjiga i pada sva njihova vojska k'o što lozov list otpada, k'o što se trusi lišće smokovo.
5 For my sword hath become drunk in heaven; Behold, upon Edom shall it descend, Upon the people under my curse, for vengeance.
Jer na nebu je opijeni mač moj: gle, na Edom on se obara da kazni narod što ga prokleh.
6 The sword of Jehovah is full of blood; It is covered with fat, With the blood of lambs and goats, With the fat of the kidneys of rams; For Jehovah holdeth a sacrifice in Bozrah, And a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
Mač Jahvin krvlju je opijen, omašćen pretilinom, krvlju janjećom i jarećom, pretilinom bubrega ovnujskih. Jer Jahvi se u Bosri žrtva prinosi, veliko klanje u zemlji edomskoj.
7 The wild buffaloes shall fall down with them. And the bullocks with the bulls; The hind shall be drunk with blood, And the ground enriched with fat.
S njima će biti poklani bivoli i junad s bikovima. Zemlja će se njihovom napojiti krvlju, i prašina njihova omastit' pretilinom,
8 For Jehovah holdeth a day of vengeance, A year of recompense in the cause of Zion.
jer Jahvi je ovo dan odmazde, godina naplate da Sion osveti.
9 Her streams shall be turned into pitch, And her dust into brimstone, And her whole land shall become burning pitch.
Potoci se njegovi obrću u smolu, prašina njegova u sumpor, i zemlja će mu postat smola goreća.
10 Day and night it shall not be quenched; Its smoke shall ascend forever; From generation to generation it shall lie waste; None shall pass through it for ever and ever.
Ni noću ni danju ugasit' se neće, dim će joj se dizati dovijeka, iz koljena u koljeno pusta će ostati, za vjekove vjekova nitko neće prolaziti njome.
11 The pelican and the hedgehog shall possess it; The heron and the raven shall dwell in it; Over it will he draw the measuring-line of destruction. And the plummet of desolation.
Zaposjest će je jež i čaplja, sova i gavran prebivat će u njoj. Rastegnut će nad njom uže pustoši i visak praznine.
12 Her nobles — none are there, who may proclaim a kingdom, And all her princes have come to naught.
Ondje će se nastaniti jarci, neće biti više plemića njezinih, ondje se više neće proglašavat' kraljevi, svi će joj knezovi biti uništeni.
13 Thorns shall spring up in her palaces; Nettles and thistles in her strongholds. She shall become a habitation for jackals, A court for ostriches.
Nići će trnje u njenim dvorcima, u tvrđavama kopriva i stričak, ona će biti jazbina čagljima, ležaj nojevima.
14 The wild-cats shall fall upon the wolves, And the satyr shall call to his fellow; There also shall the night-spectre light, And find a place of rest.
Ondje će se sretat divlje mačke s hijenama, jarci će dozivati jedan drugoga; ondje će se odmarati Lilit našav počivalište.
15 There also shall the arrow-snake make her nest, and lay her eggs; She shall hatch them, and gather her young under her shadow: There also shall the vultures be gathered together, Every one with her mate.
Ondje će se gnijezditi guja, odlagati jaja, ležat' na njima, u sjeni ih tvojoj izleći; onamo će slijetati jastrebovi jedan za drugim.
16 Search ye the book of Jehovah, and read! Not one of these shall fail; Not one shall want her mate; For His mouth, it shall command, And His spirit, it shall gather them.
Istražujte u knjizi Jahvinoj i čitajte, nijedno od tog ne izosta, jer usta njegova tako narediše i duh njegov njih sakupi.
17 He shall cast the lot for them; His hand shall divide it for them with a line; They shall possess it forever; From generation to generation shall they dwell therein.
Jer on im je ždrijeb bacio i ruka im njegova užetom zemlju odmjeri: dovijeka će je oni posjedovati, od koljena do koljena nju će obitavati.
