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 Yahweh—Where then is the scroll of your mother’s divorce, whom I have put away? Or, which of my creditors, is it to whom I have sold you? Lo! for your iniquities, have ye been sold, And for your transgressions, hath your mother been put 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.
Wherefore, When I came in, was there no one? When I called, was there none to answer? Is mine own hand, really shortened, that it cannot redeem? Or is there not, in me, strength to deliver? Lo! by my rebuke, I dry up the sea I make rivers a desert, Their fish Stinketh, for want of water, Yea dieth, for thirst:
3 Oblaèim nebesa u mrak, i kostrijet im dajem za pokrivaè.
I clothe the heavens with gloom, And, of sackcloth, make I 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.
My Lord Yahweh, hath given unto me the tongue of the instructed, That I should know how to succour the fainting, with discourse, —He kept wakening—morning by morning. He kept wakening mine ear, to hearken as do the instructed;
5 Gospod Gospod otvori mi uši, i ja se ne protivih, ne otstupih natrag.
My Lord, Yahweh, opened mine ear, And, I, was not rebellious, —Away, turned I not:
6 Leða svoja podmetah onima koji me bijahu i obraze svoje onima koji me èupahu; ne zaklonih lica svojega od ruga ni od zapljuvanja.
My back, gave I to smiters, and My cheeks, to them who pulled out the beard, —My face, hid I not from insult and spitting.
7 Jer mi Gospod Gospod pomaže, zato se ne osramotih, zato stavih èelo svoje kao kremen, i znam da se neæu postidjeti.
Because, My Lord, Yahweh, would help me, Therefore was I not deterred by insult, —Therefore did I set my face like flint, And I knew that I should not be put to shame.
8 Blizu je onaj koji me pravda; ko æe se preti sa mnom? stanimo zajedno; ko je suparnik moj? neka pristupi k meni.
At hand, is one who can justify me. Who will contend with me? let, us stand forth together, —Who can accuse me? let him draw near to me!
9 Gle, Gospod Gospod pomagaæe mi: ko æe me osuditi? Gle, svi æe oni kao haljina ovetšati, moljac æe ih izjesti.
Lo! My Lord, Yahweh, will help me, Who is he that shall prove me lawless? Lo! they all, as a garment, shall fall to pieces, the moth shall consume them.
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 among you, revereth Yahweh, Hearkening unto the voice of his Servant, —That hath walked in dark places And hath had no gleam of light? Let him trust in the name of Yahweh, 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.
Lo! all ye that kindle a fire, That gird yourselves with fiery darts, —Walk ye in the blaze of your own fire. And in the fiery darts ye have kindled, At my hand, hath this befallen you, In sorrow, shall ye lie down.
