Isaija 63

1 Ko je ono što ide iz Edoma, iz Vosora, u crvenijem haljinama? krasno odjeven, koraèajuæi u velièini sile svoje? Ja sam, koji govorim pravdu i vrijedan sam spasti.

'Who is this that cometh from Edom, with crimsoned garments from Bozrah? This that is glorious in his apparel, stately in the greatness of his strength?' — 'I that speak in victory, mighty to save.' —

2 Zašto ti je crveno odijelo i haljine ti kao u onoga koji gazi u kaci?

'Wherefore is Thine apparel red, and Thy garments like his that treadeth in the winevat?' —

3 Gazih sam u kaci, i niko izmeðu naroda ne bješe sa mnom; ali ih izgazih u gnjevu svom i potlaèih u ljutini svojoj; i krv njihova poprska mi haljine i iskaljah sve odijelo svoje.

'I have trodden the winepress alone, and of the peoples there was no man with Me; yea, I trod them in Mine anger, and trampled them in My fury; and their lifeblood is dashed against My garments, and I have stained all My raiment.

4 Jer je dan od osvete u srcu mom, i doðe godina da se moji iskupe.

For the day of vengeance that was in My heart, and My year of redemption are come.

5 Pogledah, a nikoga ne bješe da pomože, i zaèudih se što nikoga ne bješe da podupre; ali me desnica moja izbavi i jarost moja poduprije me.

And I looked, and there was none to help, and I beheld in astonishment, and there was none to uphold; therefore Mine own arm brought salvation unto Me, and My fury, it upheld Me.

6 I izgazih narode u gnjevu svom, i opojih ih jarošæu svojom, i prolih na zemlju krv njihovu.

And I trod down the peoples in Mine anger, and made them drunk with My fury, and I poured out their lifeblood on the earth.'

7 Pominjaæu dobrotu Gospodnju, hvalu Gospodnju za sve što nam je uèinio Gospod, i mnoštvo dobra što je uèinio domu Izrailjevu po milosti svojoj i po velikoj dobroti svojoj.

I will make mention of the mercies of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us; and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which He hath bestowed on them according to His compassions, and according to the multitude of His mercies.

8 Jer reèe: doista su moj narod, sinovi, koji neæe iznevjeriti. I bi im spasitelj.

For He said: 'Surely, they are My people, children that will not deal falsely'; so He was their Saviour.

9 U svakoj tuzi njihovoj on bješe tužan, i anðeo, koji je pred njim, spase ih. Ljubavi svoje radi i milosti svoje radi on ih izbavi, i podiže ih i nosi ih sve vrijeme.

In all their affliction He was afflicted, and the angel of His presence saved them; in His love and in His pity He redeemed them; and He bore them, and carried them all the days of old.

10 Ali se odmetaše i žalostiše sveti duh njegov; zato im posta neprijatelj, i ratova na njih.

But they rebelled, and grieved His holy spirit; therefore He was turned to be their enemy, Himself fought against them.

11 Ali se opomenu starijeh vremena, Mojsija, naroda svojega: gdje je onaj koji ih izvede iz mora s pastirem stada svojega? gdje je onaj što metnu usred njih sveti duh svoj?

Then His people remembered the days of old, the days of Moses: 'Where is He that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherds of His flock? Where is He that put His holy spirit in the midst of them?

12 Koji ih vodi slavnom mišicom svojom za desnicu Mojsijevu? koji razdvoji vodu pred njima, da steèe sebi vjeèno ime?

That caused His glorious arm to go at the right hand of Moses? That divided the water before them, to make Himself an everlasting name?

13 Koji ih vodi preko bezdana kao konja preko pustinje, da se ne spotakoše?

That led them through the deep, as a horse in the wilderness, without stumbling?

14 Duh Gospodnji vodi ih tiho, kao kad stoka slazi u dolinu; tako si vodio svoj narod da steèeš sebi slavno ime.

As the cattle that go down into the valley, the spirit of the LORD caused them to rest; so didst Thou lead Thy people, to make Thyself a glorious name.'

15 Pogledaj s neba, i vidi iz stana svetinje svoje i slave svoje, gdje je revnost tvoja i sila tvoja, mnoštvo milosrða tvojega i milosti tvoje? eda li æe se meni ustegnuti?

Look down from heaven, and see, even from Thy holy and glorious habitation; Where is Thy zeal and Thy mighty acts, the yearning of Thy heart and Thy compassions, now restrained toward me?

16 Ti si zaista otac naš, ako i ne zna Avram za nas, i Izrailj nas ne poznaje; ti si, Gospode, otac naš, ime ti je otkako je vijeka izbavitelj naš.

For Thou art our Father; for Abraham knoweth us not, and Israel doth not acknowledge us; Thou, O LORD, art our Father, our Redeemer from everlasting is Thy name.

17 Zašto si nam dao da zaðemo, Gospode, s putova tvojih? da nam otvrdne srce da te se ne bojimo? Vrati se radi sluga svojih, radi plemena našljedstva svojega.

O LORD, why dost Thou make us to err from Thy ways, and hardenest our heart from Thy fear? Return for Thy servants' sake, the tribes of Thine inheritance.

18 Za malo naslijedi narod svetosti tvoje; neprijatelji naši pogaziše svetinju tvoju.

Thy holy people they have well nigh driven out, our adversaries have trodden down Thy sanctuary.

19 Postasmo kao oni kojima nijesi nigda vladao niti je prizivano ime tvoje nad njima.

We are become as they over whom Thou never borest rule, as they that were not called by Thy name.
