Isaija 50
1 Ovako veli Gospod: gdje je raspusna knjiga matere vaše kojom je pustih? ili koji je izmeðu rukodavalaca mojih kome vas prodadoh? Gle, za bezakonja svoja prodadoste se i za vaše prijestupe bi puštena mati vaša.
Thus saith the Lord: What is this bill of the divorce of your mother, with which I have put her away? or who is my creditor, to whom I sold you: behold you are sold for your iniquities, and for your wicked deeds have I put your mother away.
2 Zašto kad doðoh ne bi nikoga? kad zvah, niko se ne odazva? da nije kako god okraèala ruka moja, te ne može iskupiti? ili nema u mene snage da izbavim? Gle, prijetnjom svojom isušujem more; obraæam rijeke u pustinju da se usmrde ribe njihove zato što nestane vode, i mru od žeði.
Because I came, and there was not a man: I called, and there was none that would hear. Is my hand shortened and become little, that I cannot redeem? or is there no strength in me to deliver? Behold at my rebuke I will make the sea a desert, I will turn the rivers into dry land: the fishes shall rot for want of water, and shall die for thirst.
3 Oblaèim nebesa u mrak, i kostrijet im dajem za pokrivaè.
I will clothe the heavens with darkness, and will make sackcloth their covering.
4 Gospod Gospod dade mi jezik uèen da umijem progovoriti zgodnu rijeè umornom; budi svako jutro, budi mi uši, da slušam kao uèenici.
The Lord hath given me a learned tongue, that I should know how to uphold by word him that is weary: he wakeneth in the morning, in the morning he wakeneth my ear, that I may hear him as a master.
5 Gospod Gospod otvori mi uši, i ja se ne protivih, ne otstupih natrag.
The Lord God hath opened my ear, and I do not resist: I have not gone back.
6 Leða svoja podmetah onima koji me bijahu i obraze svoje onima koji me èupahu; ne zaklonih lica svojega od ruga ni od zapljuvanja.
I have given my body to the strikers, and my cheeks to them that plucked them: I have not turned away my face from them that rebuked me, and spit upon me.
7 Jer mi Gospod Gospod pomaže, zato se ne osramotih, zato stavih èelo svoje kao kremen, i znam da se neæu postidjeti.
The Lord God is my helper, therefore am I not confounded: therefore have I set my face as a most hard rock, and I know that I shall not be confounded.
8 Blizu je onaj koji me pravda; ko æe se preti sa mnom? stanimo zajedno; ko je suparnik moj? neka pristupi k meni.
He is near that justifieth me, who will contend with me? let us stand together, who is my adversary? let him come near to me.
9 Gle, Gospod Gospod pomagaæe mi: ko æe me osuditi? Gle, svi æe oni kao haljina ovetšati, moljac æe ih izjesti.
Behold the Lord God is my helper: who is he that shall condemn me? Lo, they shall all be destroyed as a garment, the moth shall eat them up.
10 Ko se meðu vama boji Gospoda i sluša glas sluge njegova? Ko hodi po mraku i nema vidjela, neka se uzda u ime Gospodnje i neka se oslanja na Boga svojega.
Who is there among you that feareth the Lord, that heareth the voice of his servant, that hath walked in darkness, and hath no light? let him hope in the name of the Lord, and lean upon his God.
11 Gle, svi koji ložite oganj i opasujete se iskrama, idite u svjetlosti ognja svojega i u iskrama koje raspaliste. To vam je iz moje ruke, u mukama æete ležati.
Behold all you that kindle a fire, encompassed with dames, walk in the light of your fire, and in the dames which you have kindled: this is done to you by my hand, you shall sleep in sorrows.
