< Joel 3 >

1 [Yahweh says this]: “At that time [DOU], I will enable [the people of] Jerusalem and [other places in] Judah to prosper again.
Nebo aj, v těch dnech a v ten čas, když zase přivedu zajatý lid Judský a Jeruzalémský,
2 [Then] in the Valley of Judgment I will gather together [the people of] all the [other] nations; I will judge [and punish] them because they scattered my Israeli people and forced them to go to other countries. They divided up my land
Shromáždím také všecky národy, a svedu je do údolí Jozafat, abych se tam soudil s nimi o lid svůj a dědictví své, Izraele, jejž rozptýlili mezi pohany a zemi mou rozdělili.
3 and they (threw marked stones/cast lots) to determine who would get [each of] my people. Then they sold [some of] the Israeli boys and girls [to get money to pay] for prostitutes and wine to drink.
Také o lid můj metali los, a dávali mládence za nevěstku, mladice pak prodávali za víno, aby pili.
4 You [people of] [APO] Tyre and Sidon [cities] and [you people of] the Philistia [region], I certainly have not [RHQ] done anything to harm you! [So] if you are trying to get revenge on me, I will very quickly get revenge on you.
Anobrž, co vy máte proti mně, ó Tyrští a Sidonští, i všecky končiny Filistinské? Zdaliž se mi odplacujete? Jestliže mi se odplacujete, snadněť a vnáhleť i já obrátím odplatu vaši na hlavu vaši,
5 You have taken the silver and gold and [other] things from my temple and put them in your temples.
Kteříž stříbro mé i zlato mé béřete, a klénoty mé výborné vnášíte do chrámů svých,
6 [You dragged away] the people of Jerusalem and [other places in] Judah, and you took them far away and sold them to people in Greece.
A syny Judské i syny Jeruzalémské prodáváte synům Javanovým, aby je pryč zavodili od pomezí jejich.
7 But I will cause my people to want to return from the places to which you sold them, and I will do to you what you did to them.
Aj, já vzbudím je z toho místa, kamž jste je prodali, a obrátím odplatu vaši na hlavu vaši.
8 Then I will cause [some of] your sons and your daughters to be sold to the people of Judah! And [some of] them will be sold to the Sabea people-group, who live far away. [That will certainly happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.”
Prodám zajisté syny i dcery vaše v moc synů Judských, i prodadí je Sabejským, do národu dalekého; neboť jest Hospodin mluvil.
9 Proclaim to the [people of all] nations, “Prepare for a war! Summon your soldiers, and tell them to stand in their battle positions.
Provolejte to mezi národy, vyhlaste boj, probuďte reků, nechť přitáhnou, a dadí se najíti všickni muži váleční.
10 [Take] your plows and make swords from them, and [take] your pruning knives and make spears from them. [Even] the weak people must [also] be like [MET] [strong] soldiers.
Skujte motyky své v meče, a srpy své v oštípy; ten, kterýž jest mdlý, nechť řekne: Udatný jsem.
11 All you [people from the] nations that are near [Judah] must come quickly and gather [in the Valley of Judgment].” But Yahweh, [when that happens], send your army [of angels to attack them]!
Shromažďte se a přitáhněte všickni národové okolní, a shlukněte se; způsobiž to, ať tam sstoupí, ó Hospodine, rekové tvoji.
12 The [people in] the nations near [Judah] must get ready and come to the Valley of Judgment. There Yahweh will sit and judge [and punish] them.
Probudíť se a přitáhnou národové ti do údolé Jozafat; nebo tam se posadím, abych soudil všecky ty národy okolní.
13 [They are like] [MET] crops that are ready to be harvested; so [strike them like] [MET] [a farmer] swings his sickle to cut the grain. They are like [MET] grapes that are piled high in the pits where they will be pressed; because they are very wicked, [punish them severely] [MET] now, like [MET] [a farmer] tramples on the grapes until the pits are full of juice.
Přičiňte srp, nebo uzralo obilé; poďte, sstupte, nebo plný jest pres, oplývají kádě; mnohá zajisté jest zlost jejich.
14 [There will be] huge crowds of people in that Valley of Judgment. It will soon be the time that Yahweh [will punish them].
Ale více hromad, hromad v údolí posekání; nebo blízký jest den Hospodinův, v údolí posekání.
15 [At that time] there will be no light from the sun or moon, and the stars will not shine.
Slunce a měsíc zatmí se, a hvězdy potratí blesk svůj.
16 From Zion [Hill] in Jerusalem Yahweh will shout, and his voice will be like thunder, and his voice will cause the sky and the earth to shake. But Yahweh will protect [MET] his people; he will be like [MET] a strong wall behind which the people of Israel will be protected.
A Hospodin řváti bude z Siona, a z Jeruzaléma vydá hlas svůj, tak že se třásti budou nebesa i země; nebo Hospodin jest útočiště lidu svého, a síla synů Izraelských.
17 [Yahweh says], “At that time, you Israeli people will know that I am Yahweh, your God. I live on Zion, my sacred hill. Jerusalem will be a sacred [city], and [soldiers from] other countries will never conquer it again.
I zvíte, že já Hospodin jsem Bohem vaším, kterýž bydlím na Sionu, hoře svatosti své, a tak Jeruzalém bude svatý, a cizí nepůjdou přes něj více.
18 At that time, there will be vineyards covering [MTY] the hills, and [your cattle and goats on] those hills will produce plenty of milk. The streams in Judah will never dry up. And a stream will flow from my temple into the Acacia Valley [northeast of the Dead Sea].
I stane se v ten čas, že hory dštíti budou mstem, a pahrbkové oplývati mlékem, a všickni potokové Judští budou plní vody, a studnice z domu Hospodinova vyjde, kteráž zapojí údolé Setim.
19 [The armies of] Egypt and Edom attacked the people of Judah and killed [MTY] many people who had not done anything that was wrong. So [now] those countries will become deserts,
Egypt na zpuštění přijde, a země Idumejská hrozně zpuštěna bude pro násilí synům Judským činěné; nebo vylévali krev nevinnou v zemi jejich.
20 but there will always be people living in Jerusalem and [in other places] in Judea.
Juda pak na věky trvati bude, a Jeruzalém od národu do pronárodu.
21 [I], Yahweh, live on Zion [Hill in Jerusalem], and I will get revenge on the people [of Egypt and Edom] who killed [MTY] [many of my people].”
A očistím ty, jejichž jsem krve neočistil; nebo Hospodin přebývá na Sionu.
