< Izaija 10 >

1 Gorje tistim, ki razglašajo krivične odloke in ki pišejo muko, ki so jo predpisali,
Woe to those who decree unrighteous decrees, and to the writers who write oppressive decrees
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 deprive the needy of justice, and to rob the poor among my people of their rights, that widows may be their plunder, 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?
What will you do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which will come from afar? To whom will you flee for help? Where will you leave your wealth?
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 will only bow down under the prisoners, and will 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.
Alas Assyrian, the rod of my anger, the staff in whose hand is my 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 who anger me I will give him a command to take the plunder 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.
However, he doesn’t mean so, neither does his heart think so; but it is in his heart to destroy, and to cut off not a few nations.
8 Kajti on pravi: » Mar niso moji princi vsi skupaj kralji?
For he says, “Aren’t all of my princes kings?
9 Mar ni Kalne kakor Kárkemiš? Mar ni Hamát kakor Arpád? Mar ni Samarija kakor Damask?
Isn’t Calno like Carchemish? Isn’t Hamath like Arpad? Isn’t Samaria like Damascus?”
10 Kakor je moja roka našla kraljestva malikov in katerih rezane podobe so nadkriljevale te iz Jeruzalema in iz Samarije,
As my hand has found the kingdoms of the idols, whose engraved images exceeded those 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 to 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.
Therefore it will happen that when the Lord has performed his whole work on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the willful proud heart of the king of Assyria, and the insolence of his arrogant 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 has said, “By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom, for I have understanding. I have removed the boundaries of the peoples, and have robbed their treasures. Like a valiant man I have brought down their rulers.
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.
My hand has found the riches of the peoples like a nest, and like one gathers eggs that are abandoned, I have gathered all the earth. There was no one who moved their wing, or that opened their 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.
Should an ax brag against him who chops with it? Should a saw exalt itself above him who saws with it? As if a rod should lift those who lift it up, or as if a staff should lift up someone who 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 the Lord, GOD of Hosts, will send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory a burning will be kindled 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
The light of Israel will be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame; and it will 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.
He will consume the glory of his forest and of his fruitful field, both soul and body. It will be as when a standard bearer faints.
19 Preostanka dreves njegovega gozda bo malo, da jih lahko otrok zapiše.
The remnant of the trees of his forest shall be few, so that a child could write their number.
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.
It will come to pass in that day that the remnant of Israel, and those who have escaped from the house of Jacob will no more again lean on him who struck them, but shall lean on the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.
21 Preostanek se bo vrnil, celó Jakobov preostanek, k mogočnemu Bogu.
A remnant will return, even the remnant of Jacob, to 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 your people, Israel, are like the sand of the sea, only a remnant of them will return. A destruction is determined, overflowing with righteousness.
23 Kajti Gospod Bog nad bojevniki bo naredil uničenje, celo določeno, v sredi vse dežele.
For the Lord, GOD of Hosts, will make a full end, and that determined, throughout 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 the Lord, GOD of Hosts, says, “My people who dwell in Zion, don’t be afraid of the Assyrian, though he strike you with the rod, and lift up his staff against you, as Egypt did.
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 against you will be accomplished, and my anger will be directed to his 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.
The LORD of Hosts will stir up a scourge against him, as in the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb. His rod will be over the sea, and he will lift it up like he did against 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.
It will happen in that day that his burden will depart from off your shoulder, and his yoke from off your neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing oil.
28 Prišel je v Ajo, prešel je do Migróna, pri Mihmášu je shranil svoje vozove.
He has come to Aiath. He has passed through Migron. At Michmash he stores his baggage.
29 Šli so preko prelaza. Pri Gebi so se nastanili, Rama je prestrašena, Savlova Gíbea je zbežala.
They have gone over the pass. They have taken up their lodging at Geba. Ramah trembles. Gibeah of Saul has fled.
30 Povzdigni svoj glas, oh hči galímska. Povzroči mu, da bo ta slišan do Láješa, oh ubogi Anatót.
Cry aloud with your voice, daughter of Gallim! Listen, Laishah! You poor Anathoth!
31 Madménah je odstranjen, prebivalci Gebíma so se zbrali skupaj, da pobegnejo.
Madmenah is a fugitive. The inhabitants of Gebim flee for safety.
32 Ta dan bo ostal pri Nobu. Svojo roko bo stresel zoper goro hčere sionske, jeruzalemski hrib.
This very day he will halt at Nob. He shakes his hand at the mountain 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, GOD of Hosts, will lop the boughs with terror. The tall will be cut down, and the lofty will be brought low.
34 Z železom bo posekal gozdne goščave in Libanon bo padel po mogočnem.
He will cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon will fall by the Mighty One.
