Isaija 6
1 Godine koje umrije car Ozija vidjeh Gospoda gdje sjedi na prijestolu visoku i izdignutu, i skut mu ispunjavaše crkvu.
In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord seated on a throne, high and exalted; and the train of His robe filled the temple.
2 Serafimi stajahu više njega, svaki ih imaše šest krila: dvjema zaklanjaše lice svoje i dvjema zaklanjaše noge svoje, a dvjema leæaše.
Above Him stood seraphim, each having six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying.
3 I vikahu jedan drugome govoreæi: svet, svet, svet je Gospod nad vojskama; puna je sva zemlja slave njegove.
And they were calling out to one another: “Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of Hosts; all the earth is full of His glory.”
4 I zadrmaše se pragovi na vratima od glasa kojim vikahu, i dom se napuni dima.
At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook, and the temple was filled with smoke.
5 I rekoh: jaoh meni! pogiboh, jer sam èovjek neèistijeh usana, i živim usred naroda neèistijeh usana, jer cara Gospoda nad vojskama vidjeh svojim oèima.
Then I said: “Woe is me, for I am ruined, because I am a man of unclean lips dwelling among a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of Hosts.”
6 A jedan od serafima doletje k meni držeæi u ruci živ ugljen, koji uze s oltara kliještima,
Then one of the seraphim flew to me, and in his hand was a glowing coal that he had taken with tongs from the altar.
7 I dotaèe se usta mojih i reèe: evo, ovo se dotaèe usta tvojih, i bezakonje tvoje uze se, i grijeh tvoj oèisti se.
And with it he touched my mouth and said: “Now that this has touched your lips, your iniquity is removed and your sin is atoned for.”
8 Potom èuh glas Gospodnji gdje reèe: koga æu poslati? i ko æe nam iæi? A ja rekoh: evo mene, pošlji mene.
Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying: “Whom shall I send? Who will go for Us?” And I said: “Here am I. Send me!”
9 A on reèe: idi, i reci tome narodu: slušajte ali neæete razumjeti, gledajte ali neæete poznati.
And He replied: “Go and tell this people, ‘Be ever hearing, but never understanding; be ever seeing, but never perceiving.’
10 Uèini da odeblja srce tome narodu i uši da im otežaju, i oèi im zatvori, da ne vide oèima svojim i ušima svojim da ne èuju i srcem svojim da ne razumiju i ne obrate se i ne iscijele.
Make the hearts of this people calloused; deafen their ears and close their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn and be healed.”
11 A ja rekoh: dokle Gospode? A on reèe: dokle ne opuste gradovi da budu bez stanovnika i kuæe da budu bez ljudi, i zemlja dokle sasvijem ne opusti,
Then I asked: “How long, O Lord?” And He replied: “Until the cities lie ruined and without inhabitant, until the houses are left unoccupied and the land is desolate and ravaged,
12 I dokle Gospod opravi daleko ljude i bude sama pustoš u zemlji.
until the LORD has driven men far away and the land is utterly forsaken.
13 Ali æe još biti u njoj desetina, pa æe se i ona zatrti; ali kao hrast ili brijest kojima i kad zbace lišæe ostaje stablo, tako æe sveto sjeme biti njezino stablo.
And though a tenth remains in the land, it will be burned again. As the terebinth and oak leave stumps when felled, so the holy seed will be a stump in the land.”
