Isaija 28
1 Teško gizdavome vijencu pijanica Jefremovijeh, uvelom cvijetu krasnoga nakita njihova, koji su uvrh rodnoga dola, pijani od vina!
Woe to the crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim [Fruit], and to the fading flower of his glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fertile valley of those who are overcome with wine!
2 Gle, u Gospoda ima neko jak i silan kao pljusak od grada, kao oluja koja sve lomi, kao poplava silne vode, kad navali, oboriæe sve na zemlju rukom.
Behold, 'Adonay [Lord] has a mighty and strong one. Like a storm of hail, a destroying storm, and like a storm of mighty waters overflowing, he will cast them down to the earth with his hand.
3 Nogama æe se izgaziti gizdavi vijenac, pijanice Jefremove.
The crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim [Fruit] will be trodden under foot.
4 I uveli cvijet krasnoga nakita njihova, što je uvrh rodnoga dola, biæe kao voæe uzrelo prije ljeta, koje èim ko vidi, uzme u ruku i pojede.
The fading flower of his glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fertile valley, shall be like the first-ripe fig before the summer; which someone picks and eats as soon as he sees it.
5 U ono æe vrijeme Gospod nad vojskama biti slavna kruna i dièan vijenac ostatku naroda svojega,
In that day, Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies] will become a crown of glory, and a diadem ·crown· of beauty, to the residue of his people;
6 I duh suda onome koji sjedi da sudi, i sila onima koji uzbijaju boj do vrata.
and a spirit of mishpat ·justice· to him who sits in judgment, and strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
7 Ali se i oni zanose od vina, i posræu od silovita piæa; sveštenik i prorok zanose se od silovita piæa, osvojilo ih je vino, posræu od silovita piæa, zanose se u prorokovanju, spotièu se u suðenju.
They are lead astray, intoxicated, unintentional sin ·error· with wine, and stagger with strong drink. The priest and the prophet are lead astray, intoxicated, unintentional sin ·error· with strong drink. They are swallowed up by wine. They stagger with strong drink. They are lead astray, intoxicated, unintentional sin ·error· in vision. They stumble in judgment.
8 Jer su svi stolovi puni bljuvotine i neèistote, nema mjesta èista.
For all tables are completely full of filthy vomit and filthiness.
9 Koga æe uèiti mudrosti, i koga æe uputiti da razumije nauku? Djecu, kojoj se ne daje više mlijeko, koja su odbijena od sise?
Whom will he teach knowledge? To whom will he explain the message? Those who are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts?
10 Jer zapovijest po zapovijest, zapovijest po zapovijest, pravilo po pravilo, pravilo po pravilo, ovdje malo, ondje malo davaše se.
For it is precept on precept, precept on precept; line on line, line on line; here a little, there a little.
11 Zato æe nerazumljivom besjedom i tuðim jezikom govoriti tome narodu;
But he will speak to this nation with stammering lips and in another language;
12 Jer im reèe: ovo je poèinak, ostavite umorna da poèine; ovo je odmor; ali ne htješe poslušati.
to whom he said, “This is the resting place. Give rest to weary;” and “This is the refreshing;” yet they would not sh'ma ·hear obey·.
13 I biæe im rijeè Gospodnja, zapovijest po zapovijest, zapovijest po zapovijest, pravilo po pravilo, pravilo po pravilo, malo ovdje, malo ondje, da idu i padaju nauznako i razbiju se, i da se zapletu u zamke i uhvate.
Therefore Adonai’s word will be to them precept on precept, precept on precept; line on line, line on line; here a little, there a little; that they may go, fall backward, be broken, be snared, and be taken.
14 Zato slušajte rijeè Gospodnju, ljudi potsmjevaèi, koji vladate narodom što je u Jerusalimu.
Therefore sh'ma ·hear obey· Adonai’s word, you scoffers, that rule this people in Jerusalem [City of peace]:
15 Što rekoste: uhvatismo vjeru sa smræu, i ugovorismo s grobom; kad zaðe biè kao povodanj, neæe nas dohvatiti, jer od laži naèinismo sebi utoèište, i za prijevaru zaklonismo se; (Sheol h7585)
“Because you have said, ‘We have made a covenant ·binding contract between two or more parties· with death, and with Sheol ·Place of the dead· are we in agreement. When the overflowing scourge passes through, it won’t come to us; for we have made lies our refuge, and we have hidden ourselves under falsehood.’” (Sheol h7585)
16 Zato ovako veli Gospod Gospod: evo, ja meæem u Sionu kamen, kamen izabran, kamen od ugla, skupocjen, temelj tvrd; ko vjeruje neæe se plašiti.
Therefore thus says 'Adonay Adonai [Lord Yahweh], “Behold, I lay in Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking] for a foundation stone, a tried stone, a precious corner-stone of a sure foundation. He who trusts shall not act hastily.
17 I izvršiæu sud po pravilu i pravdu po mjerilima; i grad æe potrti lažno utoèište i voda æe potopiti zaklon.
I will make mishpat ·justice· the measuring line, and righteousness the plumb line. The hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters will overflow the hiding place.
18 I vjera vaša sa smræu uništiæe se, i ugovor vaš s grobom neæe ostati, a kad zaðe biè kao povodanj, potlaèiæe vas. (Sheol h7585)
Your covenant ·binding contract between two or more parties· with death shall be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol ·Place of the dead· shall not stand. When the overflowing scourge passes through, then you will be trampled down by it. (Sheol h7585)
19 Èim zaðe, odnijeæe vas, jer æe zalaziti svako jutro, danju i noæu, i kad se èuje vika, biæe sam strah.
As often as it passes through, it will seize you; for morning by morning it will pass through, by day and by night; and it will be nothing but terror to understand the message.”
20 Jer æe odar biti kratak da se èovjek ne može pružiti, i pokrivaè uzak da se ne može umotati.
For the bed is too short to stretch out on, and the blanket is too narrow to wrap oneself in.
21 Jer æe Gospod ustati kao na gori Ferasimu, razgnjeviæe se kao u dolu Gavaonskom, da uèini djelo svoje, neobièno djelo svoje, da svrši posao svoj, neobièan posao svoj.
For Adonai will rise up as on Mount Perazim. He will be angry as in the valley of Gibeon; that he may do his work, his unusual work, and bring to pass his act, his extraordinary act.
22 Nemojte se dakle više potsmijevati da ne postanu jaèi okovi vaši, jer èuh od Gospoda Gospoda nad vojskama pogibao odreðenu svoj zemlji.
Now therefore don’t be scoffers, lest your bonds be made strong; for I have sh'ma ·heard obeyed· a decree of destruction from 'Adonay, Adonai Tzva'ot [Lord, Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies], on the whole earth.
23 Slušajte, i èujte glas moj, pazite i èujte besjedu moju.
Give ear, and sh'ma ·hear obey· my voice! Listen, and hear my speech!
24 Ore li oraè svaki dan da posije? ili brazdi i povlaèi njivu svoju?
Does he who plows to sow plow continually? Does he keep turning the soil and breaking the clods?
25 Kad poravni ozgo, ne sije li grahor i kim? i ne meæe li pšenicu na najbolje mjesto, i jeèam na zgodno mjesto, i krupnik na njegovo mjesto?
When he has leveled its surface, does not he plant the dill, and scatter the cumin seed, and put in the wheat in rows, the barley in the appointed place, and the spelt in its place?
26 I Bog ga njegov uèi i upuæuje kako æe raditi.
For his God instructs him in right judgment, and teaches him.
27 Jer se grahor ne vrše branom, niti se toèak kolski obræe po kimu, nego se cijepom mlati grahor i kim prutom.
For the dill are not threshed with a sharp instrument, neither is a cart wheel turned over the cumin; but the dill is beaten out with a stick, and the cumin with a rod.
28 Pšenica se vrše, ali neæe jednako vrijeæi niti æe je satrti toèkom kolskim ni zupcima razdrobiti.
Bread flour must be ground; so he will not always be threshing it. Although he drives the wheel of his threshing cart over it, his horses don’t grind it.
29 I to dolazi od Gospoda nad vojskama, koji je divan u savjetu, velik u mudrosti.
This also comes out from Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies], who is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in wisdom.
