Joel 2
1 Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for [it is] nigh at hand;
Trubite u trubu na Sionu, i vièite na svetoj gori mojoj, neka drkæu svi stanovnici zemaljski, jer ide dan Gospodnji, jer je blizu,
2 A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, [even] to the years of many generations.
Dan, kada je mrak i tama, dan, kada je oblak i magla; kako se zora razastire povrh gora, tako ide narod velik i silan, kakoga nije bilo otkad je vijeka niti æe ga poslije kad biti od koljena do koljena.
3 A fire devoureth before them; and behind them a flame burneth: the land [is] as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; and nothing shall escape them.
Pred njim proždire oganj, a za njim pali plamen; zemlja je pred njim kao vrt Edemski, a za njim pustinja pusta, ništa neæe uteæi od njega.
4 The appearance of them [is] as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run.
Na oèima su kao konji i trèaæe kao konjici.
5 Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array.
Skakaæe povrh gora topoæuæi kao kola, praskajuæi kao plamen ognjeni koji sažiže strnjiku, kao silan narod spreman za boj.
6 Before their face the people shall be much pained: all faces shall gather blackness.
Pred njim æe se prepadati narodi, svako æe lice pocrnjeti.
7 They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like men of war; and they shall march every one on his ways, and they shall not break their ranks:
Oni æe trèati kao junaci, kao vojnici skakaæe na zid, i svaki æe iæi svojim putem, niti æe otstupati sa svoje staze.
8 Neither shall one thrust another; they shall walk every one in his path: and [when] they fall upon the sword, they shall not be wounded.
I jedan drugoga neæe tiskati, svaki æe iæi svojim putem, i na maèeve naviruæi neæe se raniti.
9 They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief.
Po gradu æe hoditi, po zidovima æe trèati, u kuæe æe se peti, ulaziæe kroz prozore kao lupež.
10 The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:
Pred njima æe se zemlja tresti, nebesa æe se pokolebati, sunce æe i mjesec pomrknuti i zvijezde æe ustegnuti svjetlost svoju.
11 And the LORD will utter his voice before his army: for his camp [is] very great: for [he is] strong that executeth his word: for the day of the LORD [is] great and very terrible; and who can abide it?
A Gospod æe pustiti glas svoj pred vojskom svojom, jer æe oko njegov biti vrlo velik, jer æe biti silan onaj koji æe izvršiti volju njegovu; jer æe dan Gospodnji biti velik i vrlo strašan, i ko æe ga podnijeti?
12 Therefore also now, saith the LORD, Turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning:
Zato još govori Gospod: obratite se k meni svijem srcem svojim i posteæi i plaèuæi i tužeæi.
13 And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn to the LORD your God: for he [is] gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth of the evil.
I razderite srca svoja a ne haljine svoje, i obratite se ka Gospodu Bogu svojemu, jer je milostiv i žalostiv, spor na gnjev i obilan milosrðem i kaje se oda zla.
14 Who knoweth [if] he will return and repent, and leave a blessing behind him; [even] a meat-offering and a drink-offering to the LORD your God?
Ko zna, neæe li se povratiti i raskajati se, i ostaviti iza toga blagoslov, dar i naljev za Gospoda Boga vašega.
15 Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly:
Trubite u trubu na Sionu, naredite post, proglasite svetkovinu.
16 Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth from his chamber, and the bride out of her closet.
Saberite narod, osveštajte sabor, skupite starce, saberite djecu i koja sisaju; ženik neka izide iz svoje klijeti i nevjesta iz ložnice svoje.
17 Let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O LORD, and give not thy heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them: why should they say among the people, Where [is] their God?
Izmeðu trijema i oltara neka plaèu sveštenici, sluge Gospodnje, i neka reku: prosti, Gospode, narodu svojemu, i ne daj našljedstva svojega pod sramotu, da njim obladaju narodi; zašto da reku u narodima: gdje im je Bog?
18 Then will the LORD be jealous for his land, and pity his people.
I Gospod æe revnovati za zemlju svoju i požaliæe narod svoj.
19 And the LORD will answer and say to his people, Behold, I will send you corn, and wine, and oil, and ye shall be satisfied with it; and I will no more make you a reproach among the heathen:
I Gospod æe odgovoriti i reæi æe svome narodu: evo, ja æu vam poslati žita i vina i ulja, i biæete ga siti, i neæu vas više dati pod sramotu meðu narodima.
20 But I will remove far from you the northern [army], and will drive him into a land barren and desolate, with his face towards the east sea, and his hinder part towards the utmost sea, and his odious scent shall come up, and his ill savor shall come up, because he hath done great things.
Jer æu udaljiti od vas sjeverca, i odagnati ga u zemlju suhu i pustu, prednju èetu njegovu u istoèno more a zadnju u more zapadno, i podignuæe se smrad njegov, i trulež æe se njegov podignuti, pošto uèini velike stvari.
21 Fear not, O land; be glad and rejoice: for the LORD will do great things.
Ne boj se, zemljo, raduj se i veseli se, jer æe Gospod uèiniti velike stvari.
22 Be not afraid, ye beasts of the field: for the pastures of the wilderness do spring, for the tree beareth its fruit, the fig-tree and the vine do yield their strength.
Ne bojte se, zvijeri poljske; jer æe se zelenjeti pasišta u pustinji i drveta æe nositi rod svoj, smokva æe i loza vinova davati silu svoju.
23 Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first [month].
I vi, sinovi Sionski, radujte se i veselite se u Gospodu Bogu svojem, jer æe vam dati dažd na vrijeme, i spustiæe vam dažd rani i pozni na vrijeme.
24 And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the vats shall overflow with wine and oil.
I gumna æe se napuniti žita, a kace æe se preljevati vinom i uljem.
25 And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the canker-worm, and the caterpillar, and the palmer-worm, my great army which I sent among you.
I naknadiæu vam godine koje izjede skakavac, hrušt i crv i gusjenica, velika vojska moja, koju slah na vas.
26 And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed.
I ješæete izobila, i biæete siti i hvaliæete ime Gospoda Boga svojega, koji uèini s vama èudesa, i narod moj neæe se posramiti dovijeka.
27 And ye shall know that I [am] in the midst of Israel, and [that] I [am] the LORD your God, and none else: and my people shall never be ashamed.
I poznaæete da sam ja usred Izrailja, i da sam ja Gospod Bog vaš, i da nema drugoga, i narod moj neæe se posramiti dovijeka.
28 And it shall come to pass afterward, [that] I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:
I poslije æu izliti duh svoj na svako tijelo, i proricaæe sinovi vaši i kæeri vaše, starci æe vaši sanjati sne, mladiæi æe vaši viðati utvare.
29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.
I na sluge æu i na sluškinje u one dane izliti duh svoj;
30 And I will show wonders in the heavens and on the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.
I uèiniæu èudesa na nebu i na zemlji, krv i oganj i pušenje dima.
31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the LORD shall come.
Sunce æe se pretvoriti u tamu i mjesec u krv prije nego doðe veliki i strašni dan Gospodnji.
32 And it shall come to pass, [that] whoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.
I svaki koji prizove ime Gospodnje spašæe se; jer æe na gori Sionu i u Jerusalimu biti spasenje, kao što je rekao Gospod, i u ostatku koji pozove Gospod.
