< Isaija 2 >

1 Rijeè koja doðe u utvari Isaiji sinu Amosovu za Judu i za Jerusalim.
The word, which was revealed to Isaiah, the son of Amoz, concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
2 Biæe u potonja vremena gora doma Gospodnjega utvrðena uvrh gora i uzvišena iznad humova, i stjecaæe se k njoj svi narodi.
It shall come to pass in the last days, That the mountain of the house of Jehovah shall be established at the head of the mountains, And exalted above the hills; And all nations shall flow unto it.
3 I iæi æe mnogi narodi govoreæi: hodite da idemo na goru Gospodnju, u dom Boga Jakovljeva, i uèiæe nas svojim putovima, i hodiæemo stazama njegovijem; jer æe iz Siona izaæi zakon, i rijeè Gospodnja iz Jerusalima.
And many kingdoms shall go, and shall say, “Come, let us go to the mountain of Jehovah, To the house of the God of Jacob, That he may teach us his ways, And that we may walk in his paths!” For from Zion shall go forth a law, And the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.
4 I sudiæe meðu narodima, i karaæe mnoge narode, te æe raskovati maèeve svoje na raonike, i koplja svoja na srpove, neæe dizati maèa narod na narod, niti æe se više uèiti boju.
He shall be a judge of the nations, And an umpire of many kingdoms; And they shall beat their swords into ploughshares, And their spears into pruning-hooks; Nation shall not lift up the sword against nation, Neither shall they learn war any more.
5 Dome Jakovljev, hodi da idemo po svjetlosti Gospodnjoj.
O house of Jacob, come ye, And let us walk in the light of Jehovah!
6 Ali si ostavio svoj narod, dom Jakovljev, jer su puni zala istoènijeh i gataju kao Filisteji, i mili su im sinovi tuðinski.
For thou hast forsaken thy people, the house of Jacob, Because they are full of the East, And are sorcerers, like the Philistines, And strike hands with a foreign race!
7 I zemlja je njihova puna srebra i zlata, i blagu njihovu nema kraja; zemlja je njihova puna konja, i kolima njihovijem nema kraja.
Their land is full of silver and gold, And there is no end to their treasures; Their land is full of horses, And there is no end to their chariots;
8 Puna je zemlja njihova i idola; djelu ruku svojih klanjaju se, što naèiniše prsti njihovi.
Their land is full of idols; They bow down to the work of their own hands, To that which their own fingers have made.
9 I klanjaju se prosti ljudi, i savijaju se glavni ljudi; nemoj im oprostiti.
Therefore shall the mean man be bowed down, And the great man be brought low; And thou wilt not forgive them!
10 Uði u stijenu, i sakrij se u prah od straha Gospodnjega i od slave velièanstva njegova.
Go into the rock, hide yourselves in the dust, From the terror of Jehovah, and the glory of his majesty!
11 Ponosite oèi èovjeèije poniziæe se, i visina ljudska ugnuæe se, a Gospod æe sam biti uzvišen u onaj dan.
The proud looks of man shall be humbled, And the loftiness of mortals shall be brought low; Jehovah alone shall be exalted in that day.
12 Jer æe doæi dan Gospoda nad vojskama na sve ohole i ponosite i na svakoga koji se podiže, te æe biti poniženi,
For Jehovah of hosts holdeth a day of judgment Against all that is proud and lofty; Against all that is exalted, and it shall be brought low;
13 I na sve kedre Livanske velike i visoke i na sve hrastove Vasanske,
Against all the cedars of Lebanon, the high and the exalted, And against all the oaks of Bashan;
14 I na sve gore visoke i na sve humove izdignute,
Against all the lofty mountains, And against all the high hills;
15 I na svaku kulu visoku i na svaki zid tvrdi,
Against every lofty tower, And against every high wall;
16 I na sve laðe Tarsiske i na sve likove mile.
Against all the ships of Tarshish, And against all their beautiful flags.
17 Tada æe se ponositost ljudska ugnuti i visina se ljudska poniziti, i Gospod æe sam biti uzvišen u onaj dan.
The pride of man shall be humbled; The loftiness of mortals shall be brought low; Jehovah alone shall be exalted in that day.
18 I idola æe nestati sasvijem.
The idols shall wholly pass away;
19 I ljudi æe iæi u peæine kamene i u rupe zemaljske od straha Gospodnjega i od slave velièanstva njegova, kad ustane da potre zemlju.
And men shall go into clefts of the rocks, and caves of the earth, From the terror of Jehovah, and the glory of his majesty, When he ariseth to make the earth tremble.
20 Tada æe baciti èovjek idole svoje srebrne i idole svoje zlatne, koje naèini sebi da im se klanja, krticama i slijepijem mišima,
At that time shall men cast away their idols of silver and their idols of gold, Which they have made to worship, To the moles and the bats;
21 Ulazeæi u rasjeline kamene i u peæine kamene od straha Gospodnjega i od slave velièanstva njegova, kad ustane da potre zemlju.
Fleeing into caves of the rocks, and clefts of the craggy rocks, From the terror of Jehovah, and the glory of his majesty, When he ariseth to make the earth tremble.
22 Proðite se èovjeka, kojemu je dah u nosu; jer šta vrijedi?
Trust, then, no more in man, Whose breath is in his nostrils! For what account is to be made of him!
