Isaiah 38
1 In those days Hezekiah was sick and near death. Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, came to him, and said to him, “Yahweh says, ‘Set your house in order, for you will die, and not live.’”
U to vrijeme razbolje se Jezekija na smrt; i doðe k njemu prorok Isaija sin Amosov i reèe mu: ovako veli Gospod: naredi za kuæu svoju, jer æeš umrijeti i neæeš ostati živ.
2 Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to Yahweh,
A Jezekija se okrete licem k zidu, i pomoli se Gospodu,
3 and said, “Remember now, Yahweh, I beg you, how I have walked before you in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in your sight.” Then Hezekiah wept bitterly.
I reèe: oh, Gospode, opomeni se da sam jednako hodio pred tobom vjerno i s cijelijem srcem, i tvorio što je tebi ugodno. I plaka Jezekija veoma.
4 Then Yahweh’s word came to Isaiah, saying,
Tada doðe rijeè Gospodnja Isaiji govoreæi:
5 “Go, and tell Hezekiah, ‘Yahweh, the God of David your father, says, “I have heard your prayer. I have seen your tears. Behold, I will add fifteen years to your life.
Idi i reci Jezekiji: ovako veli Gospod Bog Davida oca tvojega: èuo sam molitvu tvoju, i vidio sam suze tvoje, evo dodaæu ti vijeku petnaest godina.
6 I will deliver you and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria, and I will defend this city.
I izbaviæu tebe i ovaj grad iz ruku cara Asirskoga, i braniæu ovaj grad.
7 This shall be the sign to you from Yahweh, that Yahweh will do this thing that he has spoken.
I ovo neka ti bude znak od Gospoda da æe uèiniti Gospod što je rekao.
8 Behold, I will cause the shadow on the sundial, which has gone down on the sundial of Ahaz with the sun, to return backward ten steps.”’” So the sun returned ten steps on the sundial on which it had gone down.
Evo ja æu vratiti sjen po koljencima po kojima je sišao na sunèaniku Ahazovu natrag za deset koljenaca. I vrati se sunce za deset koljenaca po koljencima po kojima bijaše sišlo.
9 The writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, when he had been sick, and had recovered of his sickness:
Ovo napisa Jezekija car Judin kad se razbolje, i ozdravi od bolesti svoje:
10 I said, “In the middle of my life I go into the gates of Sheol. I am deprived of the residue of my years.” (Sheol h7585)
Ja rekoh, kad se presjekoše dani moji: idem k vratima grobnijem, uze mi se ostatak godina mojih. (Sheol h7585)
11 I said, “I won’t see Yah, Yah in the land of the living. I will see man no more with the inhabitants of the world.
Rekoh: neæu vidjeti Gospoda Gospoda u zemlji živijeh, neæu više vidjeti èovjeka meðu onima koji stanuju na svijetu.
12 My dwelling is removed, and is carried away from me like a shepherd’s tent. I have rolled up my life like a weaver. He will cut me off from the loom. From day even to night you will make an end of me.
Vijek moj proðe i prenese se od mene kao šator pastirski; presjekoh život svoj kao tkaè, otsjeæi æe me od osnutka; od jutra do veèera uèiniæeš mi kraj.
13 I waited patiently until morning. He breaks all my bones like a lion. From day even to night you will make an end of me.
Mišljah za jutra da æe kao lav potrti sve kosti moje; od jutra do veèera uèiniæeš mi kraj.
14 I chattered like a swallow or a crane. I moaned like a dove. My eyes weaken looking upward. Lord, I am oppressed. Be my security.”
Pištah kao ždrao i kao lastavica, ukah kao golubica, oèi mi išèilješe gledajuæi gore: Gospode, u nevolji sam, oblakšaj mi.
15 What will I say? He has both spoken to me, and himself has done it. I will walk carefully all my years because of the anguish of my soul.
Šta da reèem? On mi kaza, i uèini. Proživjeæu sve godine svoje po jadu duše svoje.
16 Lord, men live by these things; and my spirit finds life in all of them. You restore me, and cause me to live.
Gospode, o tom se živi i u tom je svemu život duha mojega, iscijelio si me i saèuvao u životu.
17 Behold, for peace I had great anguish, but you have in love for my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption; for you have cast all my sins behind your back.
Evo, na mir doðe mi ljut jad; ali tebi bi milo da izvuèeš dušu moju iz jame pogibli, jer si bacio za leða svoja sve grijehe moje.
18 For Sheol can’t praise you. Death can’t celebrate you. Those who go down into the pit can’t hope for your truth. (Sheol h7585)
Jer neæe grob tebe slaviti, neæe te smrt hvaliti, i koji siðu u grob ne nadaju se tvojoj istini. (Sheol h7585)
19 The living, the living, he shall praise you, as I do today. The father shall make known your truth to the children.
Živi, živi, oni æe te slaviti kao ja danas: otac æe sinovima javljati istinu tvoju.
20 Yahweh will save me. Therefore we will sing my songs with stringed instruments all the days of our life in Yahweh’s house.
Gospod me spase, zato æemo pjevati pjesme moje u domu Gospodnjem dok smo god živi.
21 Now Isaiah had said, “Let them take a cake of figs, and lay it for a poultice on the boil, and he shall recover.”
A Isaija bješe rekao da uzmu grudu suhih smokava i priviju na otok, te æe ozdraviti.
22 Hezekiah also had said, “What is the sign that I will go up to Yahweh’s house?”
I Jezekija bješe rekao: šta æe biti znak da æu otiæi u dom Gospodnji?
