Isaiah 28
1 Woe to the crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim, and to the fading flower of his glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fertile valley of those who are overcome with wine!
Teško gizdavome vijencu pijanica Jefremovijeh, uvelom cvijetu krasnoga nakita njihova, koji su uvrh rodnoga dola, pijani od vina!
2 Behold, the Lord has one who is mighty and strong. Like a storm of hail, a destroying storm, and like a storm of mighty waters overflowing, he will cast them down to the earth with his hand.
Gle, u Gospoda ima neko jak i silan kao pljusak od grada, kao oluja koja sve lomi, kao poplava silne vode, kad navali, oboriæe sve na zemlju rukom.
3 The crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim will be trodden under foot.
Nogama æe se izgaziti gizdavi vijenac, pijanice Jefremove.
4 The fading flower of his glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fertile valley, shall be like the first-ripe fig before the summer, which someone picks and eats as soon as he sees it.
I uveli cvijet krasnoga nakita njihova, što je uvrh rodnoga dola, biæe kao voæe uzrelo prije ljeta, koje èim ko vidi, uzme u ruku i pojede.
5 In that day, the LORD of Armies will become a crown of glory and a diadem of beauty to the residue of his people,
U ono æe vrijeme Gospod nad vojskama biti slavna kruna i dièan vijenac ostatku naroda svojega,
6 and a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgment, and strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
I duh suda onome koji sjedi da sudi, i sila onima koji uzbijaju boj do vrata.
7 They also reel with wine, and stagger with strong drink. The priest and the prophet reel with strong drink. They are swallowed up by wine. They stagger with strong drink. They err in vision. They stumble in judgment.
Ali se i oni zanose od vina, i posræu od silovita piæa; sveštenik i prorok zanose se od silovita piæa, osvojilo ih je vino, posræu od silovita piæa, zanose se u prorokovanju, spotièu se u suðenju.
8 For all tables are completely full of filthy vomit and filthiness.
Jer su svi stolovi puni bljuvotine i neèistote, nema mjesta èista.
9 Whom will he teach knowledge? To whom will he explain the message? Those who are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts?
Koga æe uèiti mudrosti, i koga æe uputiti da razumije nauku? Djecu, kojoj se ne daje više mlijeko, koja su odbijena od sise?
10 For it is precept on precept, precept on precept; line on line, line on line; here a little, there a little.
Jer zapovijest po zapovijest, zapovijest po zapovijest, pravilo po pravilo, pravilo po pravilo, ovdje malo, ondje malo davaše se.
11 But he will speak to this nation with stammering lips and in another language,
Zato æe nerazumljivom besjedom i tuðim jezikom govoriti tome narodu;
12 to whom he said, “This is the resting place. Give rest to the weary,” and “This is the refreshing;” yet they would not hear.
Jer im reèe: ovo je poèinak, ostavite umorna da poèine; ovo je odmor; ali ne htješe poslušati.
13 Therefore the LORD’s word will be to them precept on precept, precept on precept; line on line, line on line; here a little, there a little; that they may go, fall backward, be broken, be snared, and be taken.
I biæe im rijeè Gospodnja, zapovijest po zapovijest, zapovijest po zapovijest, pravilo po pravilo, pravilo po pravilo, malo ovdje, malo ondje, da idu i padaju nauznako i razbiju se, i da se zapletu u zamke i uhvate.
14 Therefore hear the LORD’s word, you scoffers, that rule this people in Jerusalem:
Zato slušajte rijeè Gospodnju, ljudi potsmjevaèi, koji vladate narodom što je u Jerusalimu.
15 “Because you have said, ‘We have made a covenant with death, and we are in agreement with Sheol. When the overflowing scourge passes through, it won’t come to us; for we have made lies our refuge, and we have hidden ourselves under falsehood.’” (Sheol h7585)
Što rekoste: uhvatismo vjeru sa smræu, i ugovorismo s grobom; kad zaðe biè kao povodanj, neæe nas dohvatiti, jer od laži naèinismo sebi utoèište, i za prijevaru zaklonismo se; (Sheol h7585)
16 Therefore the Lord GOD says, “Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious cornerstone of a sure foundation. He who believes shall not act hastily.
Zato ovako veli Gospod Gospod: evo, ja meæem u Sionu kamen, kamen izabran, kamen od ugla, skupocjen, temelj tvrd; ko vjeruje neæe se plašiti.
17 I will make justice the measuring line, and righteousness the plumb line. The hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters will overflow the hiding place.
I izvršiæu sud po pravilu i pravdu po mjerilima; i grad æe potrti lažno utoèište i voda æe potopiti zaklon.
18 Your covenant with death shall be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol shall not stand. When the overflowing scourge passes through, then you will be trampled down by it. (Sheol h7585)
I vjera vaša sa smræu uništiæe se, i ugovor vaš s grobom neæe ostati, a kad zaðe biè kao povodanj, potlaèiæe vas. (Sheol h7585)
19 As often as it passes through, it will seize you; for morning by morning it will pass through, by day and by night; and it will be nothing but terror to understand the message.”
Èim zaðe, odnijeæe vas, jer æe zalaziti svako jutro, danju i noæu, i kad se èuje vika, biæe sam strah.
20 For the bed is too short to stretch out on, and the blanket is too narrow to wrap oneself in.
Jer æe odar biti kratak da se èovjek ne može pružiti, i pokrivaè uzak da se ne može umotati.
21 For the LORD will rise up as on Mount Perazim. He will be angry as in the valley of Gibeon; that he may do his work, his unusual work, and bring to pass his act, his extraordinary act.
Jer æe Gospod ustati kao na gori Ferasimu, razgnjeviæe se kao u dolu Gavaonskom, da uèini djelo svoje, neobièno djelo svoje, da svrši posao svoj, neobièan posao svoj.
22 Now therefore don’t be scoffers, lest your bonds be made strong; for I have heard a decree of destruction from the Lord, GOD of Armies, on the whole earth.
Nemojte se dakle više potsmijevati da ne postanu jaèi okovi vaši, jer èuh od Gospoda Gospoda nad vojskama pogibao odreðenu svoj zemlji.
23 Give ear, and hear my voice! Listen, and hear my speech!
Slušajte, i èujte glas moj, pazite i èujte besjedu moju.
24 Does he who plows to sow plow continually? Does he keep turning the soil and breaking the clods?
Ore li oraè svaki dan da posije? ili brazdi i povlaèi njivu svoju?
25 When he has leveled its surface, doesn’t he plant the dill, and scatter the cumin seed, and put in the wheat in rows, the barley in the appointed place, and the spelt in its place?
Kad poravni ozgo, ne sije li grahor i kim? i ne meæe li pšenicu na najbolje mjesto, i jeèam na zgodno mjesto, i krupnik na njegovo mjesto?
26 For his God instructs him in right judgment and teaches him.
I Bog ga njegov uèi i upuæuje kako æe raditi.
27 For the dill isn’t threshed with a sharp instrument, neither is a cart wheel turned over the cumin; but the dill is beaten out with a stick, and the cumin with a rod.
Jer se grahor ne vrše branom, niti se toèak kolski obræe po kimu, nego se cijepom mlati grahor i kim prutom.
28 Bread flour must be ground; so he will not always be threshing it. Although he drives the wheel of his threshing cart over it, his horses don’t grind it.
Pšenica se vrše, ali neæe jednako vrijeæi niti æe je satrti toèkom kolskim ni zupcima razdrobiti.
29 This also comes out from the LORD of Armies, who is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in wisdom.
I to dolazi od Gospoda nad vojskama, koji je divan u savjetu, velik u mudrosti.
