< Isaija 56 >

1 Ovako veli Gospod: pazite na sud, i tvorite pravdu, jer æe skoro doæi spasenje moje, i pravda æe se moja objaviti.
Thus says YHWH, "Keep justice, and do righteousness; for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.
2 Blago èovjeku koji tako èini, i sinu èovjeèijemu koji se drži toga èuvajuæi subotu da je ne oskvrni, èuvajuæi ruku svoju da ne uèini zla.
Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who holds it fast; who keeps the Sabbath from profaning it, and keeps his hand from doing any evil."
3 I neka ne govori tuðin koji pristane uz Gospoda: Gospod me je odluèio od svoga naroda; i neka ne govori uškopljenik: gle, ja sam suho drvo.
Neither let the foreigner, who has joined himself to YHWH, speak, saying, "YHWH will surely separate me from his people"; neither let the eunuch say, "Look, I am a dry tree."
4 Jer ovako veli Gospod za uškopljenike: koji drže subote moje i izbiraju što je meni ugodno, i drže zavjet moj,
For thus says YHWH, "To the eunuchs who keep my Sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and hold fast my covenant:
5 Njima æu dati u domu svom i meðu zidovima svojim mjesto i ime bolje nego sinova i kæeri, ime vjeèno daæu svakome od njih, koje se neæe zatrti.
to them I will give in my house and within my walls a memorial and a name better than of sons and of daughters; I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
6 A tuðine koji pristanu uz Gospoda da mu služe i da ljube ime Gospodnje, da mu budu sluge, koji god drže subotu da je ne oskvrne i drže zavjet moj,
Also the foreigners who join themselves to YHWH, to minister to him, and to love the name of YHWH, to be his servants, everyone who keeps the Sabbath from profaning it, and holds fast my covenant;
7 Njih æu dovesti na svetu goru svoju i razveseliæu ih u domu svojem molitvenom; žrtve njihove paljenice i druge žrtve biæe ugodne na oltaru mom, jer æe se dom moj zvati dom molitve svijem narodima.
even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted on my altar; for my house will be called a house of prayer for all peoples."
8 Gospod Gospod govori, koji sabira prognanike Izrailjeve: još æu mu sabrati osim onijeh koji su sabrani.
YHWH, who gathers the outcasts of Israel, says, "Yet will I gather others to him, besides his own who are gathered."
9 Sve zvijeri poljske, hodite da jedete, sve zvijeri šumske.
All you animals of the field, come to devour, all you animals in the forest.
10 Svi su mu stražari slijepi, ništa ne znaju, svi su psi nijemi, ne mogu lajati, sanljivi su, leže, mio im je drijemež.
His watchmen are blind, they are all without knowledge; they are all mute dogs, they can't bark; dreaming, lying down, loving to slumber.
11 I psi su proždrljivi, koji ne znaju za sitost; i pastiri su koji ne znaju za razum, svaki se okreæe svojim putem, svaki za svojom korišæu sa svoga kraja.
Yes, the dogs are greedy, they can never have enough; and these are shepherds who can't understand: they have all turned to their own way, each one to his gain, from every quarter.
12 Hodite, uzeæu vina i napiæemo se silovita piæa, i sjutra æe biti kao danas, i još mnogo više.
"Come," say they, "I will get wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and tomorrow shall be as this day, great beyond measure."
