Isaiah 66
1 Thus said Jehovah: The heavens [are] My throne, And the earth My footstool, Where [is] this — the house that ye build for Me? And where [is] this — the place — My rest?
Ovako veli Gospod: nebo je prijesto moj i zemlja podnožje nogama mojim: gdje je dom koji biste mi sazidali, i gdje je mjesto za moje poèivanje?
2 And all these My hand hath made, And all these things are, An affirmation of Jehovah! And unto this one I look attentively, Unto the humble and bruised in spirit, And who is trembling at My word.
Jer je sve to ruka moja stvorila, to je postalo sve, veli Gospod; ali na koga æu pogledati? na nevoljnoga i na onoga ko je skrušena duha i ko drkæe od moje rijeèi.
3 Whoso slaughtereth the ox smiteth a man, Whoso sacrificeth the lamb beheadeth a dog, Whoso is bringing up a present — The blood of a sow, Whoso is making mention of frankincense, Is blessing iniquity. Yea, they have fixed on their own ways, And in their abominations their soul hath delighted.
Ko kolje vola, to je kao da ubije èovjeka; ko kolje ovcu, to je kao da zakolje psa; ko prinosi dar, to je kao da prinese krv svinjeæu; ko kadi kadom, to je kao da blagoslovi idola. To oni izabraše na putovima svojim, i duši se njihovoj mile gadovi njihovi.
4 I also — I fix on their vexations, And their fears I bring in to them, Because I have called, and there is none answering, I spake, and they have not hearkened, And they do the evil things in Mine eyes, And on that which I desired not — fixed.
Izabraæu i ja prema nevaljalstvu njihovu, i pustiæu na njih èega se boje; jer zvah a niko se ne odazva, govorih a oni ne slušaše, nego èiniše što je zlo preda mnom i izabraše što meni nije po volji.
5 Hear a word of Jehovah, Ye who are trembling unto His word, Said have your brethren who are hating you, Who are driving you out, for My name's sake: 'Honoured is Jehovah, and we look on your joy,' But they are ashamed.
Slušajte rijeè Gospodnju, koji drkæete od njegove rijeèi: braæa vaša, koja mrze na vas i izgone vas imena mojega radi, govore: neka se pokaže slava Gospodnja. I pokazaæe se na vašu radost, a oni æe se posramiti.
6 A voice of noise [is] from the city, a voice from the temple, The voice of Jehovah, giving recompence to His enemies.
Vika ide iz grada, glas iz crkve, glas Gospodnji koji plaæa neprijateljima svojim.
7 Before she is pained she hath brought forth, Before a pang cometh to her, She hath delivered a male.
Ona se porodi prije nego osjeti bolove, prije nego joj doðoše muke, rodi djetiæa.
8 Who hath heard anything like this? Who hath seen anything like these? Is earth caused to bring forth in one day? Born is a nation at once? For she hath been pained, Zion also hath borne her sons.
Ko je igda èuo to? ko je vidio tako što? Može li zemlja roditi u jedan dan? može li se narod roditi ujedanput? a Sion rodi sinove svoje èim osjeti bolove.
9 'Do I bring to the birth, And not cause to bring forth?' saith Jehovah, 'Am not I He who is causing to beget? I have also restrained,' said thy God.
Eda li ja, koji otvoram matericu, ne mogu roditi? veli Gospod; eda li æu ja, koji dajem da se raða, biti bez poroda? veli Bog tvoj.
10 Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, And be glad in her, all ye loving her, Rejoice ye with her for joy, All ye are mourning for her,
Radujte se s Jerusalimom i veselite se u njemu svi koji ga ljubite; radujte se s njim svi koji ga žaliste.
11 So that ye suck, and have been satisfied, From the breast of her consolations, So that ye wring out, and have delighted yourselves From the abundance of her honour.
Jer æete sati sise od utjehe njegove, i nasitiæete se, saæete i naslaðivaæete se u svjetlosti slave njegove.
12 For thus said Jehovah: 'Lo, I am stretching out to her peace as a river, And as an overflowing stream the honour of nations, And ye have sucked, on the side ye are carried, And on the knees ye are dandled.
Jer ovako veli Gospod: gle, ja æu kao rijeku dovesti k njemu mir i slavu naroda kao potok bujan, pa æete sati; biæete nošeni na rukama i milovani na koljenima.
13 As one whom his mother comforteth, so do I comfort you, Yea, in Jerusalem ye are comforted.
Kao kad koga mati njegova tješi tako æu ja vas tješiti, i utješiæete se u Jerusalimu.
14 And ye have seen, and rejoiced hath your heart, And your bones as tender grass do flourish, And the hand of Jehovah hath been known unto His servants, And He hath been indignant with His enemies.
Vidjeæete i obradovaæe se srce vaše i kosti æe se vaše pomladiti kao trava, i znaæe se ruka Gospodnja na slugama njegovijem i gnjev na neprijateljima njegovijem.
15 For, lo, Jehovah in fire cometh, And as a hurricane His chariots, To refresh in fury His anger, And His rebuke in flames of fire.
Jer, gle, Gospod æe doæi s ognjem, i kola æe mu biti kao vihor, da izlije gnjev svoj u jarosti i prijetnju u plamenu ognjenom.
16 For by fire and by His sword, Doth Jehovah do judgment with all flesh. And many have been Jehovah's pierced ones.'
Jer æe Gospod suditi ognjem i maèem svojim svakom tijelu, i mnogo æe biti pobijenijeh od Gospoda.
17 Those sanctifying and cleansing themselves at the gardens, After Ahad in the midst, Eating flesh of the sow, And of the abomination, and of the mouse, Together are consumed, An affirmation of Jehovah.
Koji se osveštavaju i koji se oèišæaju u vrtovima jedan za drugim javno, koji jedu meso svinjeæe i stvari gadne i miše, svi æe izginuti, veli Gospod.
18 And I — their works and their thoughts, I come to gather all the nations and tongues, And they have come and seen My honour.
A ja znam djela njihova i misli njihove, i doæi æe vrijeme, te æu sabrati sve narode i jezike, i doæi æe i vidjeæe slavu moju.
19 And I have set among them a sign, And have sent out of them those escaping unto the nations, (Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, drawing bow, Tubal and Javan, the isles that are far off, ) Who have not heard My fame, nor seen Mine honour, And they have declared Mine honour among nations.
I postaviæu znak na njih, i poslaæu izmeðu njih koji se spasu k narodima u Tarsis, u Ful i u Lud, koji natežu luk, u Tuval i u Javan i na daljna ostrva, koja ne èuše glasa o meni niti vidješe slave moje, i javljaæe slavu moju po narodima.
20 And they have brought all your brethren out of all the nations, A present to Jehovah, On horses, and on chariot, and on litters, And on mules, and on dromedaries, Unto My holy mountain Jerusalem, said Jehovah, As the sons of Israel bring the present in a clean vessel, Into the house of Jehovah.
I svu æe braæu vašu iz svijeh naroda dovesti Gospodu na dar na konjima i na kolima i na nosilima i na mazgama i na kamilama ka svetoj gori mojoj u Jerusalim, veli Gospod, kao što prinose sinovi Izrailjevi dar u èistu sudu u dom Gospodnji.
21 And also of them I take for priests, For Levites, said Jehovah.
I izmeðu njih æu uzeti sveštenike i Levite, veli Gospod.
22 For, as the new heavens and the new earth that I am making, Are standing before Me, An affirmation of Jehovah! So remain doth your seed and your name.
Jer kao što æe nova nebesa i nova zemlja, što æu ja naèiniti, stajati preda mnom, veli Gospod, tako æe stajati sjeme vaše i ime vaše.
23 And it hath been from month to month, And from sabbath to sabbath, Come do all flesh to bow themselves before Me, Said Jehovah.
I od mladine do mladine, i od subote do subote dolaziæe svako tijelo da se pokloni preda mnom, veli Gospod.
24 And they have gone forth, And looked on the carcases of the men Who are transgressing against me, For their worm dieth not, And their fire is not quenched, And they have been an abhorrence to all flesh!
I izlaziæe i gledaæe mrtva tjelesa onijeh ljudi koji se odmetnuše od mene; jer crv njihov neæe umrijeti i oganj njihov neæe se ugasiti, i biæe gad svakom tijelu.
