< Ézsaiás 1 >
1 Jesájáhúnak, Ámócz fiának látomása, melyet látott Jehúda és Jeruzsálem felől, Uzzíjáhú, Jótám, Ácház, Jechizkíjáhú, Jehúda királyainak napjaiban.
[I am] Isaiah, the son of Amoz. [Yahweh showed me] visions about Jerusalem and [all the other places in] Judah. He showed me these visions during the years that Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah were kings of Judah.
2 Halljátok egek és figyelj rá föld, mert az Örökkévaló szólt! Gyermekeket neveltem és fölemeltem, de ők elpártoltak tőlem.
This is what Yahweh says: “All you [angels in] [APO] heaven and [all you people on] [APO] earth, listen to me! The people that I caused to exist and took care of [DOU] have rebelled against me.
3 Ismeri az ökör a gazdáját és a szamár urának jászlát; Izrael nem ismer engem, népem nem ügyel rám.
Oxen know their owners, and donkeys know who provides food for them, but my Israeli people do not know [me]; they do not realize [that I am the one who takes care of them].”
4 Oh vétkező nemzet, bűnnel terhelt nép, gonosztevők fajzatja, elvetemült gyermekek! Elhagyták az Örökkévalót, káromolták Izrael szentjét, hátrafelé fordultak.
Terrible things will happen to that sinful nation, to those people who are guilty of sinning greatly. They are a group of very evil people, who act very unjustly. They have abandoned Yahweh, the holy one of Israel; they have (abandoned/turned away from) him.
5 Hová verjenek benneteket, midőn még növelitek az elszakadást? Minden fej beteg és minden szív kóros.
Why do you [RHQ] continue to [do things for which] you should be punished? Why do you continue to rebel against Yahweh? [You are like] [MET] someone whose head is badly injured and whose mind is sick/corrupt.
6 Lába talpától fejéig nincs rajta épség; csupa seb, kelevény és friss ütés; nem nyomták ki, nem kötözték be és nem lágyították olajjal.
[It is as though] [MET] from the soles/bottoms of your feet to the [tops of your] heads nothing is healthy; there are only open wounds and cuts and sores that have not been cleaned or bandaged, and no [olive] oil has been put on them [to heal them].
7 Országotok pusztaság, városaitokat tűz égette el, földetek – szemetek láttára idegenek emésztik, és pusztaság, mint idegenek dúlásakor.
[It is as though] your country is ruined/desolate; your towns have been burned. Foreigners plunder/steal the crops in your fields while you watch; they destroy everything [that they see].
8 És megmaradt Czión leánya mint kunyhó a szőlőben, mint kaliba az ugorkásban, mint ostromlott város.
The city of Jerusalem has [already] been abandoned, it is like [SIM] a shelter in a vineyard that has been abandoned by the watchmen; it is like [SIM] a watchman’s hut in a field of melons that has been deserted. It is a city surrounded by its enemies who are waiting to attack it.
9 Ha csak az Örökkévaló, a seregek ura nem hagy meg nekünk csekély maradékot, úgy jártunk volna, mint Szodoma, Amórához volnánk hasonlók.
If the Commander of the armies of angels had not allowed a few of us [his people] to (survive/remain alive), we would have [all] been [destroyed], like [the cities of] Sodom and Gomorrah [were destroyed].
10 Halljátok az Örökkévaló igéjét, Szodoma vezérei, figyeljetek Istenünk tanára, Amóra népe!
You [leaders of Judah are as wicked as] the rulers of Sodom were, and you [other people in Jerusalem areas are as wicked as] the people in Gomorrah [were]. Listen to this message from Yahweh, [all of you]!
11 Minek nekem áldozataitok sokasága, szól az Örökkévaló: jóllaktam a kosok égőáldozataival és a hízó barmok zsírjával, a tulkok, juhok és bakok vérét nem kedvelem.
He says, “You continue to bring many sacrifices to me, but I do not [RHQ] want them [because you do not worship me sincerely]! You bring me many offerings to be completely burned [on the altar], [but] I (am tired/do not want any more) of your burning all those offerings, the burning rams and the fat from fat cattle. I am not pleased with the blood of bulls and lambs and goats that [the priest] pours [against the altar].
12 Midőn jöttök, megjelenni színem előtt, ki követelte ezt tőletek, hogy tapossátok pitvaraimat?
When you come to my temple to worship me, no one [RHQ] told you to trample on my courtyard while you perform all those rituals.
13 Ne hozzatok többé hiábavaló lisztáldozatot, utálatos füstölgés az nekem, újhold és szombat, gyülekezet hirdetése – nem tűrhetek jogtalanságot ünnepléssel.
Stop bringing to me those offerings, because they are useless [to me]; I am disgusted with the incense that [the priests burn]. And [your feasts to celebrate] the new moon [each month] and your (Sabbath [days]/days of rest) and your [other] festivals— I detest them because of the wicked things [that you do].
14 Újholdjaitokat és ünnepeiteket gyűlöli lelkem, terhemre lettek, meguntam elviselni.
I [SYN] hate [all] your celebrations of each new moon and the [other] festivals that you celebrate each year. They are [like] [MET] a heavy burden that I am tired of carrying.
15 És mikor kiterjesztitek kezeiteket, elrejtem szemeimet előletek; ha sokat is imádkoztok, nem hallom: kezeitek vérrel telvék.
[So], when you lift up your hands when you pray [to me], I will not [even] look at you. Even if you pray [to me very] frequently, I will not listen [to you], [because it is as though] your hands are covered with the blood [of people whom you have killed].
16 Mosakodjatok, tisztuljatok meg, távolítsátok el szemeim elől tetteitek rosszaságát, szűnjetek meg rosszat tenni!
Cleanse your inner beings, and become [spiritually] clean! Stop your evil behavior! Stop doing things that are wrong!
17 Tanuljatok jót tenni, törekedjetek jogosságra, igazítsátok útba az erőszakost; szerezzetek jogot az árvának, vigyétek az özvegy ügyét.
Learn to do [things that are] good! [Try to] cause people to do what is just. Help people who are (oppressed/treated cruelly). Defend orphans and widows [when people take them to court].”
18 Gyertek csak, szálljunk perbe egymással, szól az Örökkévaló. Ha vétkeitek olyanok volnának, mint a bíbor, megfehérülnek mint a hó; ha vörösek volnának, mint a karmazsin, olyanok lesznek, mint a gyapjú.
Yahweh says, “You need to think about the results of what you do. Even though [the guilt of] your sins be [as evident and as difficult to get rid of] as [SIM] red [stains on a white garment] [DOU], [I will get rid of them completely] [like someone who can make that stained garment] become as white as snow or wool [DOU].
19 Ha engedtek és hallgattok, az ország javát fogjátok enni.
If you are willing to obey [me], [I will enable] you to have plenty to eat.
20 De ha vonakodtok és engedetlenkedtek, kard esz meg benneteket; mert az Örökkévaló szája beszélt.
But, if you turn away [from me and] rebel against me, you will be killed [by your enemies’] swords. [That will surely happen, because I, ] Yahweh, have said it.”
21 Mint lett paráznává a hűséges város! Telve jogossággal, igazság lakozott benne, és most – gyilkosok.
“[You people of Jerusalem previously] faithfully [worshiped only] me, but now you have become like [MET] prostitutes [who are not faithful to any husband]. Previously, people there always acted justly/fairly and righteously, but now your city [is full of] murderers.
22 Ezüstöd salakká lett, borod vízzel elegyítve.
Previously, you were [like] [MET] pure silver, but now you have become [like] [MET] the scum that is left [when silver is purified]. Previously you were [like pure] wine, but you have become [like] [MET] wine that has [a lot of] water mixed with it.
23 Nagyjaid pártütők és tolvajok társai, mindannyija szereti az ajándékot és hajhássza a fizetést; az árvának nem szereznek jogot és az özvegynek ügye nem jut eléjük.
Your leaders are rebels; they spend time with thieves. They all want to get bribes and force others to give them gifts [in order that they do good things for them]. They do not defend orphans [in court], and they do not do all they can to enable widows to get what they should receive.
24 Azért, úgymond az Úr, az Örökkévaló, a seregek ura, Izrael hatalmasa, oh, majd vigasztalódom elleneimen és bosszút állok ellenségeimen.
Therefore [I, ] the Commander of the armies of angels, the mighty God of Israel, say to my enemies, ‘will get revenge on you; you will not cause me any more trouble. And I will pay you back for the evil things that you did.
25 És feléd fordítom kezemet és kiolvasztom mint lúggal salakodat és eltávolítom minden ónodat;
I will raise my fist to strike you. I will [punish you severely] [MET], as though [MET] you were silver [and I needed to heat you very greatly to] melt you and get rid of the impurities.
26 és ismét adok neked bírákat, mint azelőtt, tanácsosokat, mint kezdetben. Azután neveznek téged az igazság várának, hűséges városnak.
[After that happens, ] I will give you good judges like you had previously; you will have [wise] counselors like you had long ago. Then people will call your city “a city where people [act] righteously, a city where people are loyal to me.”'”
27 Czión jog által váltatik meg és megtérő igazság által.
Because the people of Jerusalem will do what is fair/just, their city will be restored; those who repent [will be saved] because of [their acting] righteously.
28 De romlás éri az elpártolókat és vétkeseket egyetemben, és akik elhagyták az Örökkévalót, elenyésznek.
But rebels and sinners will be crushed by Yahweh, and those who forsake him will disappear.
29 Mert megszégyenülnek a tölgyfák miatt, melyeket kedveltetek, és elpirultok a kertek miatt, melyeket választottatok.
You will be ashamed because [you worshiped] idols under the oak trees [that you considered to be] sacred; you will be disgraced because [you worshiped idols] in the gardens where you chose [to worship them].
30 Bizony lesztek mint tölgyfa, melynek hervad a levele, és mint kert, melynek nincsen vize.
You will be like [SIM] a very large tree which has withered leaves, like [SIM] a garden that [is dried up because] it has no water.
31 Csepűvé lesz a hatalmas s az ő műve szikrává; égni fog mindkettő egyetemben és nincs aki oltsa.
Those among you who are [very] strong will become [like] [MET] dry wood, and the work they do will be [like] [MET] a spark; both they and the evil things that they do will burn up completely, and no one will be able to put out the fire.
