Isaija 35
1 Radovaæe se tome pustinja i zemlja sasušena, veseliæe se pustoš i procvjetati kao ruža.
They rejoice from the wilderness and dry place, And the desert rejoices, And flourishes as the rose,
2 Procvjetaæe obilno, i veseliæe se radujuæi se i popijevajuæi; slava Livanska daæe joj se i krasota Karmilska i Saronska; ta æe mjesta vidjeti slavu Gospodnju, krasotu Boga našega.
Flourishing it flourishes, and rejoices, Indeed, [with] joy and singing, The glory of Lebanon has been given to it, The beauty of Carmel and Sharon, They see the glory of YHWH, The majesty of our God.
3 Ukrijepite klonule ruke, i koljena iznemogla utvrdite.
Strengthen the feeble hands, Indeed, strengthen the stumbling knees.
4 Recite onima kojima se srce uplašilo: ohrabrite se, ne bojte se; evo Boga vašega; osveta ide, plata Božija, sam ide, i spašæe vas.
Say to the hurried of heart, “Be strong, Do not fear, behold, your God; vengeance comes, The repayment of God, He Himself comes and saves you.”
5 Tada æe se otvoriti oèi slijepima, i uši gluhima otvoriæe se.
Then eyes of the blind are opened, And ears of the deaf are unstopped,
6 Tada æe hromac skakati kao jelen, i jezik nijemoga pjevaæe, jer æe u pustinji provreti vode i potoci u zemlji sasušenoj.
Then the lame leap as a deer, And the tongue of the mute sings, For waters have been broken up in a wilderness, And streams in a desert.
7 I suho æe mjesto postati jezero, i zemlja sasušena izvori vodeni, u stanu zmajevskom, po ložama njihovijem, biæe trava, trska i sita.
And the mirage has become a pond, And the thirsty land—fountains of waters, In the habitation of dragons, Its place of lying down, A court for reed and rush.
8 I ondje æe biti nasap i put, koji æe se zvati sveti put; neæe iæi po njemu neèisti, nego æe biti za njih; ko uzide njim, ni lud neæe zaæi.
And a highway has been there, and a way, And it is called the “Way of Holiness.” The unclean do not pass over it, And He Himself [is] by them, Whoever is going in the way—even fools do not err.
9 Neæe ondje biti lava, i ljuta zvijer neæe iæi po njemu, niti æe se ondje naæi, nego æe hoditi izbavljeni.
No lion is there, Indeed, a destructive beast does not ascend it, It is not found there, And the redeemed have walked,
10 I koje iskupi Gospod, vratiæe se i doæi æe u Sion pjevajuæi, i vjeèna æe radost biti nad glavom njihovom, dobiæe radost i veselje, a žalost i uzdisanje bježaæe.
And the ransomed of YHWH return, And have entered Zion with singing, And [with] continuous joy on their head, They attain joy and gladness, And sorrow and sighing have fled away!
