Zephaniah 3
1 Terrible things will [also] happen [to Jerusalem], that city whose people have rebelled [against Yahweh] and who have become unacceptable to him [because of the sins that they have committed]. [They act violently toward others] and they (oppress/treat cruelly) [other people].
Běda městu tomuto hltavému a poškvrněnému a utiskujícímu.
2 [The people there] do not pay attention to people who tell them [the wrong things that they are doing] and [try to] (correct them/cause them to quit doing those things). [The people in Jerusalem] do not trust in Yahweh or draw near to ask help from their God.
Neposlouchá hlasu, aniž přijímá kázně; v Hospodina nedoufá, k Bohu svému nepřibližuje se.
3 Their leaders are [like] [MET] roaring lions; they are [like] [MET] wolves that [attack other animals] during the evening, [and eat everything that they kill], with the result that the next morning there is nothing left [of those animals to eat].
Knížata jeho jsou u prostřed něho lvové řvoucí, soudcové jeho vlci večerní, nehryzou kostí až do rána.
4 The prophets in Jerusalem are proud, [and they give messages that are] not to be trusted. Their priests cause the temple to be unholy by doing things that are opposed to the laws [of Moses].
Proroci jeho kvapní, muži velmi nešlechetní; kněží jeho poškvrňují věci svaté, natahují zákona.
5 But Yahweh is [also] in the city; and he never does what is wrong. He treats people justly/fairly; he does that every day, but wicked people are never ashamed [about their doing what is wrong].
Hospodin spravedlivý u prostřed něho jest, nelibuje nepravosti, každého dne soud svůj vynáší na světlo bez přestání, a však nešlechetník neumí se styděti.
6 [Yahweh says this]: “I have destroyed [many] nations; I have destroyed their strong/high city walls and towers. [Now] I have caused the streets in those cities to be completely deserted [DOU]; the cities are ruined. There are no people [still alive] in the cities; they are all dead [LIT].
Vyplénil jsem národy, zpustli zámkové jejich, v pustinu obrátil jsem ulice jejich, tak že žádný přes ně nechodí; zpustla města jejich, tak že není člověka, není žádného obyvatele.
7 [So] I thought [to myself], ‘[Because of what I have done to those other nations], surely the people [of Jerusalem] will revere me [now], and they will accept (my correcting them/my telling them to quit doing what is wrong). [If they do that, I] will not destroy their houses; I will not punish them like I said that I would do.’ But [in spite of knowing how I punished those other nations], they were still eager to get up early each morning and continue to do evil things.
Řekl jsem: Jistotně báti se mne budeš, přijmeš kázeň, aby nebyl vypléněn příbytek tvůj tím, čím jsem tě navštíviti chtěl. Ale ráno vstanouce, porušují všecky snažnosti své.
8 Therefore I, Yahweh, say, ‘Wait for the day in which I will testify [in court about your evil things].’ I have decided to gather the people of the kingdoms [of the earth] [DOU] and cause them to know that I am very angry with them. All [over] the earth I will punish and destroy people; my being angry with them because I (am jealous/want people to worship no other god) is [like] [MET] a (raging/very hot) fire.
Protož očekávejtež na mne, praví Hospodin, do dne toho, v kterémž povstanu k loupeži. Nebo soud můj jest, abych sebral národy, shromáždil království, abych vylil na ně rozhněvání své a všecku prchlivost hněvu svého; ohněm zajisté horlivosti mé sehlcena bude všecka tato země.
9 When that happens, I will cause [all] people [MTY] to be changed and enable them to speak [only] what is (pure/pleasing to me), in order that everyone can worship me [MTY] and unitedly/together serve me [MTY].
Tehdáž zajisté způsobím národům rty čisté, jimiž by vzývali všickni jméno Hospodinovo, a sloužili jemu jedním ramenem.
10 [Then] my people who [were forced to go to other countries], those who live along the upper part of the [Nile] River in Ethiopia will come to me and bring offerings to me.
Ti, kteříž jsou za řekami Mouřenínské země, koříce se mi, se dcerou rozptýlených mých dary mi přinesou.
11 At that time, you [people in Jerusalem] will no [longer] be ashamed [about what has happened to you], because you no longer will be rebelling against me. I will get rid of all the people among you who are very proud [DOU]. No one on [Zion], my holy hill, will [strut around] proudly.
V ten den nebudeš se hanbiti za žádné skutky své, jichž jsi se dopustil proti mně; nebo tehdáž odejmu z prostředku tvého ty, kteříž pléší v důstojnosti tvé, a nebudeš se více vyvyšovati na hoře svatosti mé.
12 Those who are still alive in Israel will be poor and humble; they will be people who trust in me [MTY].
A pozůstavím u prostřed tebe lid chudý a nuzný, i budou doufati ve jménu Hospodinovu.
13 Those people who are still alive [there] in Israel will not do [things that are] wrong; they will not tell lies or deceive [MTY] people. They will eat and sleep [safely], [because] no one will cause them to be afraid.”
Ostatkové Izraele neučiní nepravosti, aniž mluviti budou lži, aniž se nalezne v ústech jejich jazyk lstivý, ale pásti se budou a odpočívati, a nebude žádného, kdo by je přestrašil.
14 You people who live in Jerusalem [DOU] and [other places in] Israel, sing and shout loudly! Be glad, and rejoice [DOU] greatly,
Prozpěvuj, dcero Sionská, prokřikujte, Izraelští, vesel se a plésej vším srdcem, dcero Jeruzalémská,
15 [because] Yahweh will stop punishing [MTY] you, and he will send away from you [the armies of] your enemies! And Yahweh [himself], the king of [us] Israeli people, will live among us, and never again will we be afraid that [others will] harm us.
Že odjal Hospodin soudy tvé, odklidil nepřítele tvého. Král Izraelský Hospodin jest u prostřed tebe, nebudeš se báti více zlého.
16 At that time, [other people] will say to us people of Jerusalem, “[You people of] [APO] Jerusalem, do not be afraid; do not become afraid or discouraged,
V ten den bude řečeno Jeruzalému: Neboj se, a Sionu: Nechť nemdlejí ruce tvé.
17 [because] Yahweh your God is [living] among you. He is mighty, and he will rescue/save you. He will be very happy with you; because he loves you, he will cause you to not be afraid; he will sing loudly to rejoice over you.”
Hospodin Bůh tvůj u prostřed tebe mocný zachová tě, radovati se bude z tebe velice, přestane na milování svém tebe, plésati bude nad tebou s prozpěvováním, řka:
18 [Yahweh says, ] “You people were sad and ashamed because [you were unable to attend] your religious festivals; but I will cause you to no longer be disgraced.
Toužící po Jeruzalému zase sberu, z tebeť jsou, bolestící pro břímě pohanění vzložené na tebe.
19 Truly, I will [severely] punish all those who (oppressed you/caused you to suffer). I will rescue those who are helpless and those who were forced to go to other countries. I will enable them to be praised and honored in every country to which they were (exiled/forced to go), places where they were disgraced.
Aj, já konec učiním všechněm, kteříž tě trápiti budou v ten čas, a zachovám kulhavou, a zahnanou shromáždím; nýbrž způsobím jim chválu a jméno po vší zemi, v níž pohanění nesli.
20 At that time, I will gather you together and bring you [back] home [to Israel]. I will cause you to (have a good reputation/be honored) and be [greatly] praised among all the nations of the earth. You [MTY] will see me causing you to prosper again. [That will surely happen because I, ] Yahweh, have said it.”
V ten čas přivedu vás, v ten čas, pravím, shromáždím vás; nebo dám vám jméno a chválu mezi všemi národy země, když zase přivedu zajaté vaše před očima vašima, dí Hospodin.
