Isaija 32
1 Evo, car æe carovati pravo i knezovi æe vladati po pravdi.
Behold, a king reigns for righteousness, As for princes, they rule for judgment.
2 I èovjek æe biti kao zaklon od vjetra, i kao utoèište od poplave, kao potoci na suhu mjestu, kao sjen od velike stijene u zemlji sasušenoj.
And each has been as a hiding place [from] wind, And as a secret hiding place [from] inundation, As streams of waters in a dry place, As a shadow of a heavy rock in a weary land.
3 I oèi onijeh koji vide neæe biti zaslijepljene, i uši onijeh koji èuju slušaæe.
And the eyes of beholders are not dazzled, And the ears of hearers attend.
4 I srce nerazumnijeh razumjeæe mudrost, i jezik mutavijeh govoriæe brzo i razgovijetno.
And the heart of those hurried understands to know, And the tongue of stammerers hurries to speak clearly.
5 Nevaljalac se neæe više zvati knez, niti æe se tvrdica nazivati podašnijem.
A fool is no more called “noble,” And to a miser it is not said, “rich”;
6 Jer nevaljalac o nevaljalstvu govori, i srce njegovo gradi bezakonje, radeæi licemjerno i govoreæi na Boga laž, da isprazni dušu gladnomu i napoj žednomu da uzme.
For a fool speaks folly, And his heart does iniquity, to do profanity, And to speak error concerning YHWH, To empty the soul of the hungry, Indeed, he causes the thirsty to lack [their] drink.
7 I sprave tvrdièine zle su; smišlja lukavštine da zatre nište rijeèima lažnijem i kad siromah govori pravo.
And the miser—his instruments [are] evil, He has counseled wicked schemes, To corrupt the poor with lying sayings, Even when the needy speaks justly.
8 Ali knez smišlja kneževski, i ustaje da radi kneževski.
And the noble counseled noble things, And he rises up for noble things.
9 Ustanite, žene mirne, slušajte glas moj; kæeri bezbrižne, èujte rijeèi moje.
Women, easy ones, rise, hear my voice, Daughters, confident ones, give ear [to] my saying,
10 Za mnogo godina biæete u smetnji, vi bezbrižne; jer neæe biti berbe, i sabiranje neæe doæi.
In days and a year You are troubled, O confident ones, For harvest has been consumed, The gathering does not come.
11 Strašite se, vi mirne; drkæite, vi bezbrižne, svucite se, budite gole, i pripašite oko sebe kostrijet,
Tremble, you women, you easy ones, Be troubled, you confident ones, Strip and make bare, with a girdle on the loins,
12 Bijuæi se u prsi za lijepijem njivama, za rodnijem èokotima.
They are lamenting for breasts, For fields of desire, for the fruitful vine.
13 Trnje i èkalj niknuæe na zemlji naroda mojega, i po svijem kuæama veselijem, u gradu veselom.
Over the ground of my people thorn [and] brier go up, Surely over all houses of joy of the exulting city,
14 Jer æe se dvorovi ostaviti, vreve gradske nestaæe; kule i stražare postaæe peæine dovijeka, radost divljim magarcima i paša stadima,
The palace has been left, The multitude of the city forsaken, Fort and watchtower have been for dens for all time, A joy of wild donkeys—a pasture of herds;
15 Dokle se ne izlije na nas duh s visine i pustinja postane njiva a njiva se stane uzimati za šumu.
Until the Spirit is emptied out on us from on high, And a wilderness has become a fruitful field, And the fruitful field is reckoned for a forest.
16 Tada æe sud stanovati u pustinji, i pravda æe stajati na njivi.
And judgment has dwelt in the wilderness, And righteousness remains in the fruitful field.
17 I mir æe biti djelo pravde, što æe pravda uèiniti biæe pokoj i bezbrižnost dovijeka.
And a work of the righteousness has been peace, And a service of the righteousness—Keeping quiet and confidence for all time.
18 I moj æe narod sjedjeti u mirnu stanu i u šatorima pouzdanijem, na poèivalištima tihim.
And My people have dwelt in a peaceful habitation, And in steadfast dwelling places, And in quiet resting places.
19 Ali æe grad pasti na šumu, i grad æe se vrlo sniziti.
And it has hailed in the going down of the forest, And the city is low in the valley.
20 Blago vama koji sijete pokraj svake vode, i puštate volove i magarce.
Blessed [are] you sowing by all waters, Sending forth the foot of the ox and the donkey!
