< Isaiah 58 >

1 Call with the throat, restrain not, As a trumpet lift up thy voice, And declare to My people their transgression, And to the house of Jacob their sins;
Vièi iz grla, ne usteži se, podigni glas svoj kao truba, i objavi narodu mojemu bezakonja njegova i domu Jakovljevu grijehe njihove,
2 Seeing — Me day by day they seek, And the knowledge of My ways they desire, As a nation that righteousness hath done, And the judgment of its God hath not forsaken, They ask of me judgments of righteousness, The drawing near of God they desire:
Premda me svaki dan traže i radi su znati putove moje, kao narod koji tvori pravdu i ne ostavlja suda Boga svojega; ištu od mene sudove pravedne, žele približiti se k Bogu.
3 'Why have we fasted, and Thou hast not seen? We have afflicted our soul, and Thou knowest not.' Lo, in the day of your fast ye find pleasure, And all your labours ye exact.
Zašto postismo, vele, a ti ne pogleda, muèismo duše svoje, a ti ne htje znati? Gle, kad postite, èinite svoju volju i izgonite sve što vam je ko dužan.
4 Lo, for strife and debate ye fast, And to smite with the fist of wickedness, Ye fast not as [to] -day, To sound in the high place your voice.
Eto postite da se prete i svaðate i da bijete pesnicom bezbožno. Nemojte postiti tako kao danas, da bi se èuo gore glas vaš.
5 Like this is the fast that I choose? The day of a man's afflicting his soul? To bow as a reed his head, And sackcloth and ashes spread out? This dost thou call a fast, And a desirable day — to Jehovah?
Taki li je post koji izabrah da èovjek muèi dušu svoju jedan dan? da savija glavu svoju kao sita i da stere poda se kostrijet i pepeo? To li æeš zvati post i dan ugodan Gospodu?
6 Is not this the fast that I chose — To loose the bands of wickedness, To shake off the burdens of the yoke, And to send out the oppressed free, And every yoke ye draw off?
A nije li ovo post što izabrah: da razvežeš sveze bezbožnosti, da razdriješiš remenje od bremena, da otpustiš potlaèene, i da izlomite svaki jaram?
7 Is it not to deal to the hungry thy bread, And the mourning poor bring home, That thou seest the naked and cover him, And from thine own flesh hide not thyself?
Nije li da prelamaš hljeb svoj gladnome, i siromahe prognane da uvedeš u kuæu? kad vidiš gola, da ga odjeneš, i da se ne kriješ od svoga tijela?
8 Then broken up as the dawn is thy light, And thy health in haste springeth up, Gone before thee hath thy righteousness, The honour of Jehovah doth gather thee.
Tada æe sinuti vidjelo tvoje kao zora, i zdravlje æe tvoje brzo procvasti, i pred tobom æe iæi pravda tvoja, slava Gospodnja biæe ti zadnja straža.
9 Then thou callest, and Jehovah answereth, Thou criest, and He saith, 'Behold Me.' If thou turn aside from thy midst the yoke, The sending forth of the finger, And the speaking of vanity,
Tada æeš prizivati, i Gospod æe te èuti: vikaæeš, i reæi æe: evo me. Ako izbaciš izmeðu sebe jaram i prestaneš pružati prst i govoriti zlo;
10 And dost bring out to the hungry thy soul, And the afflicted soul dost satisfy, Then risen in the darkness hath thy light, And thy thick darkness [is] as noon.
I ako otvoriš dušu svoju gladnome, i nasitiš dušu nevoljnu; tada æe zasjati u mraku vidjelo tvoje i tama æe tvoja biti kao podne.
11 And Jehovah doth lead thee continually, And hath satisfied in drought thy soul, And thy bones He armeth, And thou hast been as a watered garden, And as an outlet of waters, whose waters lie not.
Jer æe te Gospod voditi vazda, i sitiæe dušu tvoju na suši, i kosti tvoje krijepiæe, i biæeš kao vrt zaliven i kao izvor kojemu voda ne presiše.
12 And they have built out of thee the wastes of old, The foundations of many generations thou raisest up, And one calleth thee, 'Repairer of the breach, Restorer of paths to rest in.'
I tvoji æe sazidati stare pustoline, i podignuæeš temelje koji æe stajati od koljena do koljena, i prozvaæeš se: koji sazida razvaline i opravi putove za naselje.
13 If thou dost turn from the sabbath thy foot, Doing thine own pleasure on My holy day, And hast cried to the sabbath, 'A delight,' To the holy of Jehovah, 'Honoured,' And hast honoured it, without doing thine own ways, Without finding thine own pleasure, And speaking a word.
Ako odvratiš nogu svoju od subote da ne èiniš što je tebi drago na moj sveti dan, i ako prozoveš subotu milinom, sveti dan Gospodnji slavnijem, i budeš ga slavio ne iduæi svojim putovima i ne èineæi što je tebi drago, ni govoreæi rijeèi,
14 Then dost thou delight thyself on Jehovah, And I have caused thee to ride on high places of earth, And have caused thee to eat the inheritance of Jacob thy father, For the mouth of Jehovah hath spoken!
Tada æeš se veseliti u Gospodu, i izvešæu te na visine zemaljske, i daæu ti da jedeš našljedstvo Jakova oca svojega; jer usta Gospodnja rekoše.
