Isaija 5
1 Zapjevaæu sada dragome svojemu pjesmu dragoga svojega o vinogradu njegovu. Dragi moj ima vinograd na rodnu brdašcu.
Let me sing now a song respecting my friend, A song respecting my friend touching his vineyard. My friend had a vineyard On a very fruitful hill;
2 I ogradi ga, i otrijebi iz njega kamenje, i nasadi ga plemenitom lozom, i sazida kulu usred njega, i iskopa pivnicu u njemu, i poèeka da rodi grožðem, a on rodi vinjagom.
He digged it, and cleared it of stones, And planted it with the choicest vine, And built a tower in the midst of it, And hewed out a wine-press therein; Then he looked that it should bring forth its grapes, But it brought forth sour grapes.
3 Pa sada, stanovnici Jerusalimski i ljudi Judejci, sudite izmeðu mene i vinograda mojega.
And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, Judge ye between me and my vineyard!
4 Što je još trebalo èiniti vinogradu mojemu što mu ne uèinih? kad èekah da rodi grožðem, zašto rodi vinjagom?
What could have been done for my vineyard That I have not done for it? Why, then, when I looked that it should bring forth its grapes, Brought it forth sour grapes?
5 Sada æu vam kazati što æu uèiniti vinogradu svojemu. Oboriæu mu ogradu, neka opusti; razvaliæu mu zid, neka se pogazi;
But come now, and I will tell you What I mean to do with my vineyard. I will take away its hedge, and it shall be eaten up; I will break down its wall, and it shall be trodden down!
6 Uparložiæu ga, neæe se rezati ni kopati, nego æe rasti èkalj i trnje, i zapovjediæu oblacima da ne puštaju više dažda na nj.
And I will make it a waste; It shall not be pruned, nor digged, But shall grow up into thorns and briers; I will also command the clouds That they shed no rain upon it.
7 Da, vinograd je Gospoda nad vojskama dom Izrailjev, i ljudi su Judejci mili sad njegov; on èeka sud, a gle nasilja, èeka pravdu, a gle vike.
The vineyard of Jehovah of hosts is the house of Israel, And the men of Judah the plant of his delight. He looked for justice, and behold, bloodshed! For righteousness, and behold, outcry!
8 Teško onima koji sastavljaju kuæu s kuæom, i njivu na njivu nastavljaju, da veæ ne bude mjesta i vi sami ostanete u zemlji.
Woe to them that join house to house, That add field to field, Till there is no place left, And they dwell alone in the land.
9 Od Gospoda nad vojskama èuh: mnoge kuæe opustjeæe, u velikim i lijepijem neæe biti nikoga.
To mine ear hath Jehovah of hosts revealed it: Surely many houses shall become a desolation, The great and the fair ones, without an inhabitant.
10 Jer æe deset rala vinograda dati jedan vat, i gomer sjemena daæe efu.
Yea, ten acres of vineyard shall yield a single bath of wine, And a homer of seed shall produce but an ephah.
11 Teško onima koji rane, te idu na silovito piæe i ostaju do mraka dok ih vino raspali.
Woe to them that rise early in the morning to follow strong drink, —Who sit late in the night that wine may inflame them!
12 I na gozbama su im gusle i psaltiri i bubnji i svirale i vino; a ne gledaju na djela Gospodnja i ne vide rada ruku njegovijeh.
And the lyre and the harp, the tabret and the pipe, and wine, are at their feasts, But they regard not the work of Jehovah, Nor attend to the operation of his hands.
13 Zato se narod moj odvede u ropstvo što ne znaju, i koje poštuje gladuju, i ljudstvo njegovo gine od žeði.
Therefore shall my people be led captive, when they think not of it; Their honorable men shall be famished with hunger, And their rich men parched with thirst.
14 Zato se raširio grob i razvalio ždrijelo svoje preveæ, i siæi æe u nj slava njegova i mnoštvo njegovo i vreva njegova i koji se vesele u njemu. (Sheol h7585)
Therefore doth the under-world enlarge its greedy throat, And stretch open its mouth without measure, And down go her nobility and her wealth, Her busy throng, and all that was joyful within her. (Sheol h7585)
15 I pognuæe se prost èovjek, i visoki æe se poniziti, i ponosite oèi oboriæe se;
The mean man shall be bowed down, And the great man shall be brought low, And the eyes of the haughty shall be humbled;
16 Gospod nad vojskama uzvisiæe se sudom, i Bog sveti posvetiæe se pravdom.
Jehovah of hosts shall be exalted through judgment; Yea, God, the Holy One, shall be sanctified through righteousness.
17 I jaganjci æe pasti po svom obièaju, i došljaci æe jesti s pustijeh mjesta pretilinu.
Then shall the lambs feed, as in their own pasture, And the deserted fields of the rich shall strangers consume.
18 Teško onima koji vuku bezakonje uzicama od taštine, i grijeh kao užem kolskim,
Woe to them that draw calamity with cords of wickedness, And punishment as with wagon-traces, —
19 Koji govore: neka pohiti, neka brzo doðe djelo njegovo, da vidimo, i neka se približi i doðe što je naumio svetac Izrailjev, da poznamo.
Who say, Let him make speed, let him hasten his work that we may see it! Let the purpose of the Holy One of Israel draw near and be fulfilled, that we may know it!
20 Teško onima koji zlo zovu dobro, a dobro zlo, koji prave od mraka svjetlost a od svjetlosti mrak, koji prave od gorkoga slatko a od slatkoga gorko.
Woe to them that call evil good, and good evil, That put darkness for light, and light for darkness, That put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
21 Teško onima koji misle da su mudri, i sami su sebi razumni.
Woe to them that are wise in their own eyes, And prudent in their own conceit!
22 Teško onima koji su jaki piti vino i junaci u miješanju silovita piæa.
Woe to them that are valiant to drink wine, And men of might to mingle strong drink!
23 Koji pravdaju bezbožnika za poklon, a pravednima uzimaju pravdu.
That clear the guilty for a reward, And take away from the righteous his right!
24 Zato kao što oganj proždire strnjiku i slame nestaje u plamenu, tako æe korijen njihov biti kao trulež i cvijet njihov otiæi æe kao prah, jer odbaciše zakon Gospoda nad vojskama i prezreše rijeè sveca Izrailjeva.
Therefore, as fire devours stubble, And as the withered grass sinks into the flame, So their root shall become rottenness, And their blossom shall fly up like dust. For they have despised the law of Jehovah of hosts, And contemned the word of the Holy One of Israel.
25 Zato se raspali gnjev Gospodnji na narod njegov, i mahnuv rukom svojom na nj udari ga da se gore zadrmaše i mrtva tjelesa njegova biše kao blato po ulicama. Kod svega toga gnjev se njegov ne odvrati, nego je ruka njegova još podignuta.
Therefore is the anger of Jehovah kindled against his people; He stretcheth forth his hand against them, and smiteth them, so that the mountains tremble, And their carcasses are as dung in the midst of the streets; For all this his anger is not turned away, But his hand is stretched out still.
26 I podignuæe zastavu narodima daljnijem, i zazviždaæe im s kraja zemlje; i gle, oni æe doæi odmah, brzo.
He lifteth up a banner for the nations afar off, He whistleth for them from the ends of the earth, And behold, they haste, and come swiftly.
27 Neæe biti meðu njima umorna ni sustala, ni dremljiva ni sanljiva, nikome se neæe raspasati pojas oko njega, niti æe se kome otkinuti remen na obuæi.
None among them is weary, and none stumbleth; None slumbereth nor sleepeth; The girdle of their loins is not loosed, Nor the latchet of their shoes broken.
28 Strijele æe im biti oštre, i svi lukovi njihovi zapeti; kopita u konja njihovijeh biæe kao kremen i toèkovi njihovi kao vihor.
Their arrows are sharp, And all their bows bent; The hoofs of their horses are like flint, And their wheels like a whirlwind.
29 Rika æe im biti kao u lava, i rikaæe kao laviæi; buèaæe i ugrabiæe plijen i odnijeti ga, i neæe biti nikoga da otme.
Their roaring is like the roaring of the lion; They roar like young lions; They roar, and seize the prey; They bear it away, and none can rescue it.
30 Buèaæe nad njim u to vrijeme kao što more buèi. Tada æe pogledati na zemlju, a to mrak i strah, i svjetlost æe se pomraèiti nad pogiblju njihovom.
Yea, in that day shall they roar against them like the roaring of the sea; And if one look to the land, behold darkness and sorrow, And the light is darkened by its clouds.
