< Izajasza 15 >
1 Brzemię Moabczyków. Ponieważ w nocy zburzone i spustoszone będzie Ar Moabskie, ponieważ w nocy zburzone i spustoszone będzie Kir Moabskie:
[I received] this message [from Yahweh] about the Moab [people-group]: In one night [two of your important cities], Ar and Kir, will be destroyed.
2 Wstąpi do Bait, i do Dybon, i do Bamot z płaczem; nad Nebo, i nad Medebą Moab kwilić będzie; na każdej głowie jego będzie łysina, i każda broda ogolona będzie.
The people of Dibon, [your capital city, ] will go to their temple to mourn/weep; they will go to [their shrines] on the hilltops to weep. They will wail because of [what happened to] Nebo and Medeba [towns in the south]; they will all shave the hair of their heads, and the men will cut off their beards [to show that they are grieving].
3 Na ulicach jego przepaszą się worem; na dachach jego i na rynkach jego każdy kwilić będzie, wracajac się z płaczem.
In the streets people will wear rough sackcloth, and on their [flat] rooftops and in the [city] plazas everyone will wail, with tears streaming down their faces.
4 I będzie wołał Hesebon i Eleale, aż w Jahas słyszany będzie głos ich; owszem i zbrojni Moabscy narzekać będą, a dusza każdego z nich porzewniać sobie będzie, mówiąc:
[The people of] Heshbon [city] and Elealeh [towns in the north of Moab] will cry out; people as far away as Jahaz [town in the south] will hear them wailing. Therefore the soldiers of Moab will tremble and cry out and they will be very afraid [IDM].
5 Serce moje ryczy nad Moabem i nad twierdzami jego, aż słyszeć w Zoar, jako jałowica trzyletnia; bo drogą Luchytską z płaczem pójdzie, a na drodze Choronaim krzyk jako w porażce podniosą;
I feel very sorry for [the people of] Moab; they will flee to Zoar and Eglath-Shelishiyah [towns in the far south]. They will cry as they walk up to Luhith [town]. All along the road to Horonaim [town] people will mourn because their country has been destroyed.
6 Przeto, że wody Nymrym zginą, że poschną zioła, uwiędnie trawa, a nic nie będzie zielonego.
The water in Nimrim [Valley] will have dried up. The grass there will be withered; the green plants will [all] be gone, and there will be nothing left that is green.
7 Przetoż, cokolwiek sobie zachowali, i majętności ich, odniosę do potoku Arabskiego.
The people will pick up their possessions and carry them across Willows Brook.
8 Bo obejdzie krzyk granicę Moabską, aż do Eglaim narzekanie jego, i aż do Beer Elim kwilenie jego;
Throughout the country of Moab, [people] will be crying; people as far away as Eglaim [in the south] and Beer-Elim [in the north] will hear them wailing.
9 Ponieważ i wody Dymońskie krwi pełne będą: bo przyłożę Dymonowi przydatki, a na tych, którzyby uszli z Moabczyków, poślę lwy, i na ostatki w tej ziemi.
The stream near Dimon will become red from the blood [of people who have been killed], but I will cause the people of Moab to experience even more [trouble]: Lions will attack those who [are trying to] escape from Moab and will [also] attack the people who remain in that country.
