Isaija 27
1 Tada æe Gospod pokarati maèem svojim ljutijem i velikim i jakim levijatana, prugu zmiju, i levijatana, krivuljastu zmiju, i ubiæe zmaja koji je u moru.
In that day, the LORD with his hard and great and strong sword will punish leviathan, the fleeing serpent, and leviathan, the twisted serpent; and he will kill the dragon that is in the sea.
2 Tada pjevajte o vinogradu koji raða crvenijem vinom:
In that day, sing to her, “A pleasant vineyard!
3 Ja Gospod èuvam ga, u svako doba zaljevaæu ga; dan noæ èuvaæu ga da ga ko ne ošteti.
I, the LORD, am its keeper. I will water it every moment. Lest anyone damage it, I will keep it night and day.
4 Nema gnjeva u mene; ko æe staviti u boj nasuprot meni èkalj i trnje? ja æu pogaziti i spaliti sve.
Wrath is not in me, but if I should find briers and thorns, I would do battle! I would march on them and I would burn them together.
5 Ili neka se uhvati za silu moju da uèini mir sa mnom; uèiniæe mir sa mnom.
Or else let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me. Let him make peace with me.”
6 Jednom æe se ukorijeniti Jakov, procvjetaæe i uzrasti Izrailj, i napuniæe vasiljenu plodom.
In days to come, Jacob will take root. Israel will blossom and bud. They will fill the surface of the world with fruit.
7 Je li ga udario onako kako je udario one koji njega udaraše? je li ga ubio onako kako su ubijeni oni koje je ubio?
Has he struck them as he struck those who struck them? Or are they killed like those who killed them were killed?
8 S mjerom ga je karao, kad ga je odbacio, kad ga je odnio silnijem vjetrom svojim istoènijem.
In measure, when you send them away, you contend with them. He has removed them with his rough blast in the day of the east wind.
9 Zato æe se tijem oèistiti bezakonje Jakovljevo i to æe biti sva korist što æe se uzeti grijeh njegov kad sve kamenje oltarno razmetne kao razdrobljeno kreèno kamenje i ne bude više gajeva ni sunèanijeh likova,
Therefore by this the iniquity of Jacob will be forgiven, and this is all the fruit of taking away his sin: that he makes all the stones of the altar as chalk stones that are beaten in pieces, so that the Asherah poles and the incense altars shall rise no more.
10 Jer æe tvrdi grad opustjeti i biæe stan ostavljen i zanemaren kao pustinja; ondje æe pasti tele i ondje æe lijegati, i poješæe mu grane.
For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation deserted and forsaken, like the wilderness. The calf will feed there, and there he will lie down, and consume its branches.
11 Kad se posuše grane, polomiæe se; žene æe dolaziti i ložiti ih na oganj. Jer je narod nerazuman; zato ga neæe žaliti koji ga je stvorio, i koji ga je sazdao neæe se smilovati na nj.
When its boughs are withered, they will be broken off. The women will come and set them on fire, for they are a people of no understanding. Therefore he who made them will not have compassion on them, and he who formed them will show them no favour.
12 U to æe vrijeme Gospod ovijati od obale rijeke do potoka Misirskoga, a vi, sinovi Izrailjevi, sabraæete se jedan po jedan.
It will happen in that day that the LORD will thresh from the flowing stream of the Euphrates to the brook of Egypt; and you will be gathered one by one, children of Israel.
13 I tada æe se zatrubiti u veliku trubu, i koji se bjehu izgubili u zemlji Asirskoj i koji bijahu zagnani u zemlju Misirsku, doæi æe i klanjaæe se Gospodu na svetoj gori u Jerusalimu.
It will happen in that day that a great trumpet will be blown; and those who were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and those who were outcasts in the land of Egypt, shall come; and they will worship the LORD in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
