Izaija 14
1 Kajti Gospod bo imel usmiljenje do Jakoba in bo še izbral Izrael in jih postavil v njihovo lastno deželo, in tujci bodo združeni z njimi in se bodo trdno pridružili Jakobovi hiši.
For the Lord will have mercy on Jacob, and will again make choice of Israel, and replace them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined unto them, and they shall attach themselves to the house of Jacob.
2 Ljudstvo jih bo vzelo in jih privedlo na njihov kraj. Izraelova hiša jih bo vzela v last v Gospodovi deželi za služabnice in pomočnice. Odvedli jih bodo ujete tisti, katerih ujetniki so bili in vladali bodo nad svojimi zatiralci.
And nations shall take them, and bring them to their own place; but the house of Israel shall obtain possession of them in the land of the Lord for men-servants and for maid-servants; and they shall take captive their captors, and they shall rule over their oppressors.
3 Na ta dan se bo zgodilo, ko ti bo Gospod dal počitek pred tvojo bridkostjo, pred tvojim strahom in pred trdim suženjstvom, s čimer si bil primoran, da služiš,
And it shall come to pass on the day when the Lord will give thee rest from thy trouble, and from thy vexation, and from the hard bondage wherein thou wast made to serve,
4 da boš vzel ta pregovor zoper babilonskega kralja in rekel: »Kako je zatiralec končal! Zlato mesto je končalo!
That thou wilt take up this parable against the king of Babylon, and say, How hath ceased the oppressor! ceased the exactress of gold!
5 Gospod je zlomil palico zlobnih in žezlo vladarjev.
Broken hath the Lord the staff of the wicked, the sceptre of rulers;
6 Tisti, ki je v besu udaril ljudstvo z nenehnim udarcem, tisti, ki je narodom vladal v jezi, je preganjan in nihče ne zadržuje.
He who smote people in wrath, blows without intermission, he that ruled in anger nations, persecuting without restraint.
7 Celotna zemlja je pri počitku in mirna. Oni izbruhnejo v petje.
At rest, quiet is all the earth; men break forth into loud song.
8 Da, ciprese se razveseljujejo ob tebi in libanonske cedre, rekoč: ›Odkar si položen dol, noben sekalec ni prišel zoper nas.‹
Also, the fir-trees rejoice at thee, the cedars of Lebanon, “Since thou wast laid low, no feller is come up against us.”
9 Pekel od spodaj vztrepetava zaradi tebe, da te sreča ob tvojem prihodu. Zaradi tebe razvnema mrtve, celó vse zemeljske vodje, iz njihovih prestolov je dvignil vse kralje narodov. (Sheol h7585)
The nether world from below is in motion concerning thee to meet thee at thy coming: it stirreth up the departed for thee, all the chief ones of the earth; it hath caused to rise up from their thrones all the kings of nations. (Sheol h7585)
10 Vsi ti bodo govorili in ti rekli: ›Si tudi ti postal slaboten kakor mi? Si postal podoben nam?‹
They all will commence and say unto thee, “Thou—thou also art become weak like us; similar unto us art thou become!”
11 Tvoj pomp je priveden dol h grobu in zvok tvojih lir. Ličinka se razteguje pod teboj in ličinke te pokrivajo. (Sheol h7585)
Into the nether world is brought down thy pride, the clatter of thy psalteries: beneath thee is spread the worm, and thy cover is the moth. (Sheol h7585)
12 Kako si padel z neba, oh Lucifer, sin jutra! Kako si posekan na tla, ki si narode slabil!
How art thou fallen from heaven, O morning-star, son of the dawn! how art thou hewn down to the ground, crusher of nations!
13 Ker si rekel v svojem srcu: ›Vzpel se bom v nebesa, svoj prestol bom povzdignil nad Božje zvezde. Tudi na gori skupnosti bom sedel, na obronkih severa,
And thou—thou hadst said in thy heart, “Into heaven will I ascend, above the stars of God will I exalt my throne; and I will sit also upon the mount of the assembly, in the farthest end of the north;
14 nad višine oblakov se bom dvignil, podoben bom Najvišjemu.‹
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be equal to the Most High.”
But into the nether world shalt thou be brought down, into the lowest depth. (Sheol h7585)
16 Tisti, ki te vidijo, te bodo natančno ogledovali in preudarjali, rekoč: ›Mar je to mož, ki je počel, da je zemlja trepetala, ki je pretresal kraljestva,
They that see thee will gaze at thee, will regard thee well, [saying, ] “Is this the man that caused the earth to tremble, that made kingdoms quake?
17 ki je naredil zemeljski [krog] kakor divjino in uničil njegova mesta, ki ni odprl hiše svojih ujetnikov?‹
That rendered the world as a wilderness, and pulled down its cities: never opened the prison-house of his prisoners?”
18 Vsi kralji narodov, celó vsi izmed njih, ležijo v slavi, vsak v svoji lastni hiši.
All the kings of nations, all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own [eternal] house.
19 Ti pa si izvržen iz svojega groba, kakor gnusna mladika in kakor oblačilo tistih, ki so umorjeni, prebodeni z mečem, ki gredo dol k jamskim kamnom, kakor truplo, pomendrano pod stopali.
But thou—thou art cast out of thy grave like a discarded offshoot, as a garment of those that are slain, pierced by the sword, that go down to the stones of the pit, as a carcass trodden under foot.
20 Ne boš pridružen z njimi pri pokopu, ker si uničil svojo deželo in umoril svoje ljudstvo. Seme hudodelcev nikoli ne bo ugledno.
Thou shalt not be united with them in burial; because thy land hast thou destroyed, thy people hast thou slain: to eternity shall not be called the seed of evil-doers.
21 Pripravite pokol za njegove otroke zaradi krivičnosti njihovih očetov, da ne vstanejo niti ne vzamejo v last dežele niti ne napolnijo obličja zemeljskega [kroga] z mesti.
Prepare for his children the slaughter, for the iniquity of their fathers: that they may not rise, and possess the land, and fill the face of the world with enemies [of mankind].
22 Kajti dvignil se bom proti njim, ‹ govori Gospod nad bojevniki ›in iztrebil iz Babilona ime in ostanek, sina in nečaka, ‹ govori Gospod.
And I will rise up against them, saith the Lord of hosts; and I will cut off from Babylon name, and remnant, and son, and grandson, saith the Lord.
23 ›Prav tako ga bom naredil posest za bobnarico in vodne tolmune in pometel ga bom z metlo uničenja, ‹ govori Gospod nad bojevniki.
I will also make it a possession for the hedgehog, and pools of water: and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the Lord of hosts.
24 Gospod nad bojevniki je prisegel, rekoč: ›Zagotovo, kakor sem si zamislil, tako se bo zgodilo in kakor sem se namenil, tako bo ostalo,
Sworn hath the Lord of hosts, saying, Surely as I have purposed, so doth it come to pass; and as I have resolved, so shall it occur:
25 da bom v svoji deželi zlomil Asirca in na svojih gorah ga bom pomendral pod stopalom. Potem bo njegov jarem odšel od njih in njegovo breme bo odšlo iz njihovih ramen.‹«
To break Asshur in my own land, and upon my mountains will I tread him under foot; then shall his yoke be removed from off them, and his burden from off their shoulders.
26 To je namen, ki je namenjen nad celotno zemljo, in to je roka, ki je iztegnjena nad vsemi narodi.
This is the resolve that is resolved over all the earth: and this is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations.
27 Kajti Gospod nad bojevniki se je namenil in kdo bo to razveljavil? Njegova roka je iztegnjena in kdo jo bo zavrnil?
For the Lord of hosts hath resolved, and who shall frustrate it? and it is his hand which is stretched out, and who shall turn it back?
28 To breme je bilo v letu, ko je kralj Aház umrl.
In the year king Achaz died was this prophecy [given].
29 Ne razveseli se ti, celotna Filisteja, ker je palica tistega, ki te je udaril, zlomljena, kajti iz kačje korenine bo prišla strupena kača in njen sad bo ognjena leteča kača.
Rejoice not, thou entire Palestine, because the rod of him that smote thee is broken; for out of the serpent's root shall come forth an adder, and its fruit shall be a flying dragon.
30 Prvorojenec revnega bo nahranjen in pomoči potreben se bo ulegel v varnosti in z lakoto bom ubil tvojo korenino, on pa bo pokončal tvoj preostanek.
And the first-born of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall rest in safety: and I will kill with famine thy root, and men shall slay thy remnant.
31 Tulite, oh velika vrata, jokaj, oh mesto, ti, celotna Palestina si raztopljena, kajti iz severa bo prišel dim in nihče ne bo sam v svojih določenih časih.
Wail, O gate; cry out, O city; thou art dissolved, O thou entire Palestine; for from the north a smoke is coming, and there is no one solitary among those that are bidden to come.
32 Kaj bo nekdo potem odgovoril poslancem naroda? Da je Gospod ustanovil Sion in revni izmed njegovega ljudstva bodo zaupali vanj.
And what will each one of the messengers of the nation answer? That the Lord hath founded Zion; and that therein shall find protection the poor of his people.
