Isaija 33
1 Teško tebi, koji pustošiš a tebe ne pustoše, i koji èiniš nevjeru a tebi se ne èini nevjera; kad prestaneš pustošiti, biæeš opustošen, kad prestaneš èiniti nevjeru, èiniæe ti se nevjera.
Woe to thee who destroys, and thou were not destroyed, and deal treacherously, and they did not deal treacherously with thee! When thou have ceased to destroy, thou shall be destroyed, and when thou have made an end of dealing treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with thee.
2 Gospode, smiluj se na nas, tebe èekamo; budi im mišica svako jutro, i spasenje naše u nevolji.
O Jehovah, be gracious to us, we have waited for thee. Be thou our arm every morning, also our salvation in the time of trouble.
3 Narodi pobjegoše od jake vike, rasijaše se narodi što se ti podiže.
At the noise of the tumult the peoples have fled. At the lifting up of thyself the nations are scattered.
4 I pokupiæe se plijen vaš kao što se kupe gusjenice, skoèiæe na nj kao što skaèu skakavci.
And your spoil shall be gathered as the caterpillar gathers. As locusts leap, men shall leap upon it.
5 Uzvišen je Gospod, jer nastava na visini; napuniæe Sion suda i pravde.
Jehovah is exalted, for he dwells on high. He has filled Zion with justice and righteousness.
6 I tvrða vremena tvojega, sila spasenja tvojega biæe mudrost i znanje; strah Gospodnji biæe blago tvoje.
And there shall be stability in thy times, abundance of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge. The fear of Jehovah is thy treasure.
7 Eto, junaci njihovi vièu na polju, i poslanici mirni plaèu gorko:
Behold, their valiant ones cry outside. The ambassadors of peace weep bitterly.
8 Putovi opustješe, putnici ne putuju; pokvari ugovor, odbaci gradove, ne mari za èovjeka.
The highways lie waste. The wayfaring man ceases. The enemy has broken the covenant. He has despised the cities. He does not regard man.
9 Zemlja tuži i èezne, Livan se stidi i vene, Saron je kao pustinja, Vasan i Karmil ogolješe.
The land mourns and languishes. Lebanon is confounded and withers away. Sharon is like a desert, and Bashan and Carmel shake off their leaves.
10 Sada æu ustati, veli Gospod, sada æu se uzvisiti, sada æu se podignuti.
Now I will arise, says Jehovah. Now I will lift up myself. Now I will be exalted.
11 Zatrudnjeæete slamom, rodiæete strnjiku; gnjev vaš proždrijeæe vas kao oganj.
Ye shall conceive chaff. Ye shall bring forth stubble. Your breath is a fire that shall devour you.
12 I narodi æe biti kao peæi kreène, izgorjeæe ognjem kao trnje posjeèeno.
And the peoples shall be as the burnings of lime, as thorns cut down that are burned in the fire.
13 Slušajte koji ste daleko što sam uèinio, i koji ste blizu poznajte moæ moju.
Hear, ye who are far off, what I have done, and ye who are near, acknowledge my might.
14 Grješnici u Sionu uplašiæe se, drhat æe spopasti licemjere, i reæi æe: ko æe nas ostati kod ognja koji proždire? ko æe nas ostati kod vjeène žege?
The sinners in Zion are afraid. Trembling has seized the profane. Who among us can dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us can dwell with everlasting burnings?
15 Ko hodi u pravdi i govori što je pravo; ko mrzi na dobitak od nasilja; ko otresa ruke svoje da ne primi poklona; ko zatiskuje uši svoje da ne èuje za krv, i zažima oèi svoje da ne vidi zla;
He who walks righteously, and speaks uprightly. He who despises the gain of oppressions, who shakes away his hands from taking a bribe, who stops his ears from hearing of blood, and shuts his eyes from looking upon evil.
16 On æe nastavati na visokim mjestima; gradovi na stijenama biæe mu utoèište, hljeb æe mu se davati, vode mu se neæe premicati.
He shall dwell on high. His place of defense shall be the munitions of rocks. His bread shall be given. His waters shall be sure.
17 Oèi æe ti vidjeti cara u krasoti njegovoj, gledaæe zemlju daleku.
Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty. They shall behold a land that reaches afar.
18 Srce æe tvoje misliti o strahu govoreæi: gdje je pisar? gdje brojaè? gdje je onaj što pregleda kule?
Thy heart shall muse on the terror. Where is he who counted? Where is he who weighed the tribute? Where is he who counted the towers?
19 Neæeš vidjeti žestoka naroda, naroda koji govori iz dubina da se ne razbira, u koga je jezik mutav da se ne razumije.
Thou shall not see the fierce people, a people of a deep speech that thou cannot comprehend, of a strange tongue that thou cannot understand.
20 Pogledaj na Sion, grad praznika naših; oèi tvoje neka vide Jerusalim, mirni stan, šator, koji se neæe odnijeti, kojemu se kolje neæe nigda pomjeriti, i nijedno mu se uže neæe otkinuti.
Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities. Thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tent that shall not be removed. The stakes of which shall never be plucked up, nor shall any of the cords of it be broken.
21 Nego æe nam ondje Gospod veliki biti mjesto rijeka i potoka širokih, po kojima neæe iæi laða s veslima, niti æe velika laða prolaziti onuda.
But Jehovah will be with us there in majesty. A place of broad rivers and streams, in which shall go no galley with oars, nor shall a gallant ship pass thereby.
22 Jer je Gospod naš sudija, Gospod je koji nam postavlja zakone, Gospod je car naš, on æe nas spasti.
For Jehovah is our judge. Jehovah is our lawgiver. Jehovah is our king, he will save us.
23 Oslabiše tvoja uža, ne mogu tvrdo držati katarke svoje ni razapeti jedra; tada æe se razdijeliti velik plijen, hromi æe razgrabiti plijen.
Thy tacklings are loosed. They could not strengthen the foot of their mast. They could not spread the sail. Then the prey of a great spoil was divided. The lame took the prey.
24 I niko od stanovnika neæe reæi: bolestan sam. Narodu koji živi u njemu oprostiæe se bezakonje.
And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick. The people who dwell in it shall be forgiven their iniquity.
