Isaiah 19
1 [I received] this message [from Yahweh] about Egypt: “Listen to this! I, Yahweh, am coming to Egypt, riding on a fast-moving cloud. The idols in Egypt will tremble when [I appear], and the people of Egypt will be extremely afraid [IDM].
Breme Egipta. Glej, Gospod jaha na naglem oblaku in prišel bo v Egipt in egiptovski maliki bodo drhteli ob njegovi prisotnosti in srce Egipta se bo stopilo v njegovi sredi.
2 I will cause the people of Egypt to fight against each other: men will fight against their brothers, neighbors will fight against each other, people of one city will fight against the people of another city, people of one province will fight against the people of another province.
»Egipčane bom naravnal zoper Egipčane in bojevali se bodo vsak zoper svojega brata in vsak zoper svojega soseda, mesto zoper mesto in kraljestvo zoper kraljestvo.
3 The people of Egypt will become very discouraged, and I will cause their plans not to be successful. They will plead with idols and sorcerers and those who talk with spirits of dead people to tell them what they should do.
Egiptovski duh bo odpovedal v njihovi sredi in uničil bom njihov nasvet in iskali bodo k malikom in h krotilcem in k tistim, ki imajo osebne duhove in k čarovnikom.
4 Then I will enable someone who will treat them very cruelly to become their king [DOU].” That is what I, the Commander of the armies of angels, say.
Egipčane bom predal v roko krutega gospodarja in silovit kralj bo vladal nad njimi, « govori Gospod, Gospod nad bojevniki.
5 [Some day] the water in the [Nile] River will dry up, and the riverbed will become very dry [DOU].
Vode iz morja se bodo posušile in reke bodo zapuščene in posušene.
6 The branches of the river will all dry up [DOU] The canals along the river will stink because of the rotting reeds and (bulrushes/tall grass).
Reke bodo obrnili daleč proč in obrambni jarki bodo izpraznjeni ter posušeni. Trstje in rogoz bo ovenelo.
7 All the plants along the river and all the crops will dry up; then they will blow away and disappear.
Papirno trstje pri potokih, pri ustju potokov in vsaka posejana stvar ob potokih bo ovenela, bo odgnana in ne bo je več.
8 The fishermen will throw into the river lines with hooks on them and nets, and then they will groan and be very discouraged; they will be sad [because there will be no fish in the river].
Tudi ribiči bodo žalovali in vsi tisti, ki mečejo trnek v potoke, bodo žalovali in tisti, ki razširjajo mreže nad vodami, bodo pešali.
9 Those who weave cloth from flax will not know what to do, because there will be no thread for them to weave.
Poleg tega bodo zbegani tisti, ki delajo s tankim lanom in tisti, ki tkejo mreže.
10 They will all despair and be very discouraged.
Zlomljeni bodo v svojih namenih vsi, ki delajo zapornice in ribnike za ribe.
11 The officials in Zoan [city in northern Egypt] are foolish. The advice that they gave to the king was worthless. Why do they continue to tell the king that they are wise, that they are descendants of wise kings who lived long ago [RHQ]?
Zagotovo so princi Coana bedaki, nasvet modrih faraonovih svetovalcev je postal brutalen. Kako pravite faraonu: »Jaz sem sin modrega, sin starodavnih kraljev?«
12 King, (where are your wise counselors now?/You have no wise counselors now!) [RHQ] If you had any wise counselors, they could tell you what the Commander of the armies of angels has planned to do to Egypt [SAR]!
Kje so tisti? Kje so tvoji modri možje? In naj ti sedaj povedo in naj vedo kaj je Gospod nad bojevniki namenil nad Egiptom.
13 [Yes], the officials of Zoan have become foolish, and the leaders in Memphis [city in northern Egypt] have deceived themselves. [All] leaders of the people have (caused their people to do wrong things/led their people astray).
Princi Coana so postali bedaki, princi Nofa so zavedeni, zapeljali so tudi Egipt, celó tiste, ki so opora njegovih rodov.
14 Yahweh has caused them to be very foolish, with the result that in everything that they do, [it is as though the people of] Egypt stagger like [SIM] a drunken person staggers [and slips] in his own vomit.
Gospod je v njihovo sredo pomešal sprevrženega duha in Egiptu so storili, da se moti v vsakem svojem delu, kakor se pijan mož opoteka v svojem bruhanju.
15 There is no one in Egypt, rich or poor, important or unimportant, [who will be able to help them].
Niti tam ne bo nobenega dela za Egipt, ki bi ga glava ali rep, palmova veja ali ločje lahko opravili.
16 At that time, the people of Egypt will be [as helpless] as [SIM] women. They will tremble, being terrified [because they know that] the Commander of the armies of angels has raised his fist, [ready to strike/punish them].
Na tisti dan bo Egipt podoben ženski in bo prestrašen in bal se bo zaradi tresenja roke Gospoda nad bojevniki, ki jo trese nad njim.
17 The people of Egypt will be afraid of the people of Judah, and anyone who mentions Judah to them will cause them to be terrified, because [that will remind them] of what Yahweh, the Commander of the armies of angels, is planning to do to them.
Judova dežela bo strahota Egiptu. Vsak, kdor jo omenja, bo v sebi prestrašen zaradi namena Gospoda nad bojevniki, ki ga je določil zoper njega.
18 At that time, [people in] five cities in Egypt will solemnly declare that they will serve Yahweh. They will [learn to] speak the Hebrew language. One of those cities will be called ‘City of the Sun’.
Na tisti dan bo pet mest v egiptovski deželi govorilo kánaanski jezik in prisegalo pri Gospodu nad bojevniki; eno bo imenovano Mesto uničenja.
19 At that time, there will be an altar for worshiping Yahweh in the center of Egypt, and there will be a (pillar/large rock) to honor Yahweh at the border [between Egypt and Israel].
Na tisti dan bo tam oltar Gospodu v sredi egiptovske dežele in steber Gospodu pri njegovi meji.
20 That will be a sign to indicate that the Commander of the armies of angels is worshiped in the land of Egypt. And when the people cry out to Yahweh to help them because others are (oppressing them/causing them to suffer), he will send to them someone who will defend and rescue them.
Ta bo za znamenje in za pričevanje Gospodu nad bojevniki v egiptovski deželi, kajti klicali bodo h Gospodu zaradi zatiralcev in poslal jim bo rešitelja in mogočnega in ta jih bo osvobodil.
21 Yahweh will enable the people of Egypt to know who he is, and at that time they will have a close relationship with Yahweh and worship him and bring to him offerings of grain and other sacrifices. They will solemnly promise to do things for Yahweh, and they will do what they promise.
Gospod bo znan Egiptu in Egipčani bodo na tisti dan poznali Gospoda in opravljali klavno daritev in darovanje. Da, prisegali bodo prisego h Gospodu in jo izvedli.
22 After Yahweh has punished Egypt, he will cause their troubles to end. The people of Egypt will turn to Yahweh, and he will listen when they plead to him [for help], and he will cause their troubles to cease.
Gospod bo udaril Egipt. Udaril ga bo in ozdravil in vrnili se bodo celó h Gospodu in izprošen bo od njih in jih bo ozdravil.
23 At that time, there will be a highway between Egypt and Assyria. [As a result], the people of Egypt will [be able to] travel [easily] to Assyria, and the people of Assyria [will be able to travel easily] to Egypt. And the people of both countries will worship [Yahweh].
Na tisti dan bo tam glavna cesta iz Egipta v Asirijo in Asirec bo prišel v Egipt in Egipčan v Asirijo in Egipčani bodo služili z Asirci.
24 And Israel will be their ally. All three nations will be [friendly to] each other, and the people of Israel will be a blessing to the people of the entire world.
Na tisti dan bo Izrael tretji z Egiptom in Asirijo, celó blagoslov v sredi dežele,
25 The Commander of the armies of angels will bless them, saying, “[You people of] Egypt are now my people. You people of Assyria, I have established your country. You people of Israel are the people whom I have chosen to belong to me.”
ki ga bo Gospod nad bojevniki blagoslovil, rekoč: »Blagoslovljen bodi Egipt, moje ljudstvo in Asirija, delo mojih rok in Izrael, moja dediščina.«
