Izaija 10

1 Gorje tistim, ki razglašajo krivične odloke in ki pišejo muko, ki so jo predpisali,

Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and to the writers that write perverseness:

2 da odvrnejo pomoči potrebnega stran od sodbe in da odvzamejo pravico od revnega izmed mojega ljudstva, da bi bile lahko vdove njihov plen in da lahko oropajo osirotelega!

to turn aside the needy from judgment, and to take away the right of the poor of my people, that widows may be their spoil, and that they may make the fatherless their prey!

3 Kaj boste storili na dan obiskanja in v opustošenju, ki bo prišlo od daleč? H komu boste pobegnili po pomoč? In kje boste pustili svojo slavo?

And what will ye do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which shall come from far? to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory?

4 Brez mene se bodo sklonili pod ujetniki in padli bodo pod umorjenimi. Zaradi vsega tega njegova jeza ni odvrnjena, temveč je njegova roka še vedno iztegnjena.

They shall only bow down under the prisoners, and shall fall under the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

5 Oh Asirec, šiba moje jeze in palica v njihovi roki je moje ogorčenje.

Ho Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, the staff in whose hand is mine indignation!

6 Poslal ga bom zoper hinavski narod in zoper ljudstvo mojega besa mu bom dal zadolžitev, da vzame ukradeno blago, da vzame plen in da jih potepta kakor ulično blato.

I will send him against a profane nation, and against the people of my wrath will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets.

7 Vendar on ne meni tako niti njegovo srce ne misli tako, temveč je na njegovem srcu to, da uniči in iztrebi ne malo narodov.

Howbeit he meaneth not so, neither doth his heart think so; but it is in his heart to destroy, and to cut off nations not a few.

8 Kajti on pravi: » Mar niso moji princi vsi skupaj kralji?

For he saith, Are not my princes all of them kings?

9 Mar ni Kalne kakor Kárkemiš? Mar ni Hamát kakor Arpád? Mar ni Samarija kakor Damask?

Is not Calno as Carchemish? is not Hamath as Arpad? is not Samaria as Damascus?

10 Kakor je moja roka našla kraljestva malikov in katerih rezane podobe so nadkriljevale te iz Jeruzalema in iz Samarije,

As my hand hath found the kingdoms of the idols, whose graven images did excel them of Jerusalem and of Samaria;

11 mar ne bom, kakor sem storil Samariji in njenim malikom, tako storil Jeruzalemu in njegovim malikom?

shall I not, as I have done unto Samaria and her idols, so do to Jerusalem and her idols?

12 Kjerkoli se bo to pripetilo, da ko Gospod opravi svoje celotno delo na gori Sion in v Jeruzalemu, bom kaznoval sad arogantnega srca asirskega kralja in slavo njegovih vzvišenih pogledov.

Wherefore it shall come to pass, that when the Lord hath performed his whole work upon mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the stout heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of his high looks.

13 Ker pravi: › To sem storil z močjo svoje dlani in s svojo modrostjo, ker sem razsoden. Ljudstvu sem odstranil meje in oropal njihove zaklade in kakor hraber človek ponižal prebivalce

For he hath said, By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom; for I am prudent: and I have removed the bounds of the peoples, and have robbed their treasures, and I have brought down as a valiant man them that sit [on thrones]:

14 in moja roka je našla kakor gnezdo bogastva ljudstev; in kakor nekdo zbira jajca, ki so ostala, sem jaz zbral vso zemljo in nikogar ni bilo, ki bi zganil perut ali odprl usta ali začivkal.

and my hand hath found as a nest the riches of the peoples; and as one gathereth eggs that are forsaken, have I gathered all the earth: and there was none that moved the wing, or that opened the mouth, or chirped.

15 Mar se bo sekira bahala pred tistim, ki z njo seka? Mar se bo žaga poveličevala pred tistim, ki jo vleče? Kakor če bi se palica tresla pred tistim, ki jo vzdiguje, ali kakor če bi se palica sama vzdigovala, kakor če ne bi bila les.

Shall the axe boast itself against him that heweth therewith? shall the saw magnify itself against him that shaketh it? as if a rod should shake them that lift it up, or as if a staff should lift up [him that is] not wood.

16 Zato bo Gospod, Gospod nad bojevniki, med njegove rejene poslal pustost in pod njegovo slavo bo vžgal gorenje, podobno gorenju ognja.

Therefore shall the Lord, the Lord of hosts, send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory there shall be kindled a burning like the burning of fire.

17 Izraelova svetloba bo za ogenj in njegov Sveti za plamen in ta bo gorel in v enem dnevu bo pogoltnil njegovo trnje in njegove osate

And the light of Israel shall be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame: and it shall burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day.

18 in použil bo slavo njegovega gozda in njegovega rodovitnega polja, tako dušo kakor telo in oni bodo kakor kadar nosilec prapora slabi.

And he shall consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, both soul and body: and it shall be as when a standardbearer fainteth.

19 Preostanka dreves njegovega gozda bo malo, da jih lahko otrok zapiše.

And the remnant of the trees of his forest shall be few, that a child may write them.

20 Na tisti dan se bo zgodilo, da se Izraelov ostanek in tisti, ki so pobegnili od Jakobove hiše, ne bodo več ponovno naslanjali nanj, ki jih je udaril, temveč se bodo v resnici naslanjali na Gospoda, Svetega Izraelovega.

And it shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, and they that are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more again stay upon him that smote them; but shall stay upon the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.

21 Preostanek se bo vrnil, celó Jakobov preostanek, k mogočnemu Bogu.

A remnant shall return, [even] the remnant of Jacob, unto the mighty God.

22 Kajti čeprav bo tvojega ljudstva Izraela kakor morskega peska, se bo vendar ostanek izmed njih vrnil. Odrejeno uničenje bo preplavljeno s pravičnostjo.

For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, [only] a remnant of them shall return: a consumption [is] determined, overflowing with righteousness.

23 Kajti Gospod Bog nad bojevniki bo naredil uničenje, celo določeno, v sredi vse dežele.

For a consummation, and that determined, shall the Lord, the LORD of hosts, make in the midst of all the earth.

24 Zato tako govori Gospod Bog nad bojevniki: ›Oh moje ljudstvo, ki prebivaš na Sionu, ne boj se Asirca. Udaril te bo s palico in svojo palico bo vzdignil zoper tebe po načinu Egipta.

Therefore thus saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts, O my people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: though he smite thee with the rod, and lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt.

25 Kajti še zelo kratek čas in ogorčenje bo prenehalo in moja jeza v njihovem uničenju.

For yet a very little while, and the indignation shall be accomplished, and mine anger, in their destruction.

26 Gospod nad bojevniki bo zanj razvnel bič, glede na pokol Midjána, pri Orébovi skali in kakor je bila njegova palica nad morjem, tako jo bo vzdignil po načinu Egipta.

And the LORD of hosts shall stir up against him a scourge, as in the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb: and his rod shall be over the sea, and he shall lift it up after the manner of Egypt.

27 Na tisti dan se bo zgodilo, da bo njegovo breme vzeto iz tvoje rame in njegov jarem iz tvojega vratu in jarem bo uničen zaradi maziljenja.

And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall depart from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.

28 Prišel je v Ajo, prešel je do Migróna, pri Mihmášu je shranil svoje vozove.

He is come to Aiath, he is passed through Migron; at Michmash he layeth up his baggage:

29 Šli so preko prelaza. Pri Gebi so se nastanili, Rama je prestrašena, Savlova Gíbea je zbežala.

they are gone over the pass; they have taken up their lodging at Geba: Ramah trembleth; Gibeah of Saul is fled.

30 Povzdigni svoj glas, oh hči galímska. Povzroči mu, da bo ta slišan do Láješa, oh ubogi Anatót.

Cry aloud with thy voice, O daughter of Gallim! hearken, O Laishah! O thou poor Anathoth!

31 Madménah je odstranjen, prebivalci Gebíma so se zbrali skupaj, da pobegnejo.

Madmenah is a fugitive; the inhabitants of Gebim gather themselves to flee.

32 Ta dan bo ostal pri Nobu. Svojo roko bo stresel zoper goro hčere sionske, jeruzalemski hrib.

This very day shall he halt at Nob: he shaketh his hand at the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.

33 Glej, Gospod, Gospod nad bojevniki, bo vejo obrezal s strahoto in tisti z visoko postavo bodo posekani in ošabni bodo ponižani.

Behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, shall lop the boughs with terror: and the high ones of stature shall be hewn down, and the lofty shall be brought low.

34 Z železom bo posekal gozdne goščave in Libanon bo padel po mogočnem.

And he shall cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one.
