Isaija 1
1 Utvara Isaije sina Amosova, koju vidje za Judu i za Jerusalim za vremena Ozije, Joatana, Ahaza i Jezekije, careva Judinijeh.
The visions of Isaiah, the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
2 Èujte, nebesa, i slušaj, zemljo; jer Gospod govori: sinove odgojih i podigoh, a oni se odvrgoše mene.
Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth! For Jehovah speaketh: “I have nourished and brought up children, And they have rebelled against me.
3 Vo poznaje gospodara svojega i magarac jasle gospodara svojega, a Izrailj ne poznaje, narod moj ne razumije.
The ox knoweth his owner, And the ass his master's crib; But Israel doth not know; My people do not consider.”
4 Da grješna naroda! naroda ogrezla u bezakonju! sjemena zlikovaèkoga, sinova pokvarenijeh! ostaviše Gospoda, prezreše sveca Izrailjeva, otstupiše natrag.
Ah, sinful nation! a people laden with iniquity! A race of evil-doers! degenerate children! They have forsaken Jehovah; they have despised the Holy One of Israel; They have gone backward.
5 Što biste još bili bijeni kad se sve više odmeæete? Sva je glava bolesna i sve srce iznemoglo.
Where can ye be smitten again, Since ye renew your rebellion? The whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint;
6 Od pete do glave nema ništa zdrava, nego uboj i modrice i rane gnojave, ni iscijeðene ni zavijene ni uljem zablažene.
From the sole of the foot even to the head, there is no soundness in it; It is all bruises, and stripes, and flesh wounds, Neither pressed, nor bound up, nor softened with ointment.
7 Zemlja je vaša pusta, gradovi vaši ognjem popaljeni; vaše njive jedu tuðini na vaše oèi, i pustoš je kao što opustošavaju tuðini.
Your country is desolate; Your cities are burnt with fire; Your ground, strangers devour it before your eyes; It is become desolate, destroyed by an enemy.
8 I osta kæi Sionska kao koliba u vinogradu, kao sjenica u gradini od krastavaca, kao grad opkoljen.
And the daughter of Zion is left as a shed in a vineyard, As a hut in a garden of cucumbers, As a besieged city.
9 Da nam Gospod nad vojskama nije ostavio malo ostatka, bili bismo kao Sodom, izjednaèili bismo se s Gomorom.
Had not Jehovah of hosts left us a small remnant, We had soon become as Sodom; We had been like to Gomorrah.
10 Èujte rijeè Gospodnju, knezovi Sodomski, poslušajte zakon Boga našega, narode Gomorski!
Hear ye the word of Jehovah, ye princes of Sodom! Give ear to the instruction of our God, ye people of Gomorrah!
11 Što æe mi mnoštvo žrtava vaših? veli Gospod. Sit sam žrtava paljenica od ovnova i pretiline od gojene stoke, i ne marim za krv junèiju i jagnjeæu i jareæu.
What to me is the multitude of your sacrifices? saith Jehovah; I am satiated with burnt-offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; In the blood of bullocks and of lambs and of goats I have no delight.
12 Kad dolazite da se pokažete preda mnom, ko ište to od vas, da gazite po mom trijemu?
When ye come to appear before me, Who hath required this of you, to tread my courts?
13 Ne prinosite više žrtve zaludne; na kad gadim se; a o mladinama i subotama i o sazivanju skupštine ne mogu podnositi bezakonja i svetkovine.
Bring no more false oblations! Incense is an abomination to me, The new moon also, and the sabbath, and the calling of the assembly; Iniquity and festivals I cannot endure.
14 Na mladine vaše i na praznike vaše mrzi duša moja, dosadiše mi, dodija mi podnositi.
Your new moons and your feasts my soul hateth; They are a burden to me; I am weary of bearing them.
15 Zato kad širite ruke svoje, zaklanjam oèi svoje od vas; i kad množite molitve, ne slušam; ruke su vaše pune krvi.
When ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you; Yea, when ye multiply prayers, I will not hear: Your hands are full of blood!
16 Umijte se, oèistite se, uklonite zloæu djela svojih ispred oèiju mojih, prestanite zlo èiniti.
Wash you; make you clean; Put away your evil doings from before mine eyes;
17 Uèite se dobro èiniti, tražite pravdu, ispravljajte potlaèenoga, dajite pravicu siroti, branite udovicu.
Cease to do evil; Learn to do well; Seek justice; relieve the oppressed; Defend the fatherless; plead for the widow!
18 Tada doðite, veli Gospod, pa æemo se suditi: ako grijesi vaši budu kao skerlet, postaæe bijeli kao snijeg; ako budu crveni kao crvac, postaæe kao vuna.
Come, now, and let us argue together, saith Jehovah. Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; Though they be red as crimson, they shall be like wool.
19 Ako hoæete slušati, dobra zemaljska ješæete.
If ye be willing and obedient, Ye shall consume the good of the land.
20 Ako li neæete, nego budete nepokorni, maè æe vas pojesti, jer usta Gospodnja rekoše.
But if ye refuse, and be rebellious, The sword shall consume you; For the mouth of Jehovah hath said it.
21 Kako posta kurva vjerni grad? Pun bijaše pravice, pravda nastavaše u njemu, a sada krvnici.
How is the faithful city become a harlot, She that was full of equity! Once justice dwelt in her, but now murderers!
22 Srebro tvoje posta troska, vino tvoje pomiješa se s vodom.
Thy silver is become dross; Thy wine is adulterated with water.
23 Knezovi su tvoji odmetnici i drugovi lupežima; svaki miluje mito i ide za darovima; siroti ne daju pravice, i parnica udovièka ne dolazi pred njih.
Thy princes are faithless, companions of thieves; Every one of them loveth gifts, and seeketh rewards; They render not justice to the fatherless, And the cause of the widow cometh not before them.
24 Zato govori Gospod, Gospod nad vojskama, silni Izrailjev: aha! izdovoljiæu se na protivnicima svojim, i osvetiæu se neprijateljima svojim.
Wherefore, thus saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, the Mighty One of Israel: Ha! I will ease me of mine adversaries, And avenge me of mine enemies.
25 I okrenuæu ruku svoju na te, i sažeæi æu troske tvoje da te preèistim, i ukloniæu sve olovo tvoje.
And I will again turn my hand toward thee, And wholly purge away thy dross, And take away all thy alloy.
26 I postaviæu ti opet sudije kao prije, i savjetnike kao ispoèetka; tada æeš se zvati grad pravedni, grad vjerni.
And I will restore thee judges, as at the first, And counsellors, as at the beginning. Then shalt thou be called the city of righteousness, the faithful city.
27 Sion æe se otkupiti sudom, i pravdom oni koji se u nj vrate.
Through justice shall Zion be delivered, And her reformed sons through righteousness.
28 A odmetnici i grješnici svi æe se satrti, i koji ostavljaju Gospoda, izginuæe.
But destruction shall fall at once on the rebels and sinners; Yea, they that forsake Jehovah shall be consumed.
29 Jer æete se posramiti od gajeva koje željeste, i zastidjeti se od vrtova koje izabraste.
For ye shall be ashamed of the terebinths in which ye delighted; Ye shall blush for the gardens which ye loved;
30 Jer æete biti kao hrast kojemu opada lišæe i kao vrt u kom nema vode.
And ye shall be as a terebinth-tree whose leaves are withered, And as a garden in which is no water.
31 I biæe junak kao kuèine i djelo njegovo kao iskra, i oboje æe se zapaliti, i neæe biti nikoga da ugasi.
The strong shall become tow, And his work a spark of fire; Both shall burn together, And none shall quench them.
