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.
Yahweh will have compassion on Jacob; he will again choose Israel and restore them into their own land. Foreigners will join with them and 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.
The nations will bring them to their own place. Then the house of Israel will take them in the land of Yahweh as male and female servants. They will take captive those who had captured them, and they will 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,
On the day that Yahweh gives you rest from your suffering and anguish, and from the hard labor which you were required to perform,
4 da boš vzel ta pregovor zoper babilonskega kralja in rekel: »Kako je zatiralec končal! Zlato mesto je končalo!
you will sing this taunt song against the king of Babylon, “How the oppressor has come to an end, the proud fury ended!
5 Gospod je zlomil palico zlobnih in žezlo vladarjev.
Yahweh has broken the staff of the wicked, the scepter of those 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.
that struck the peoples in wrath with unceasing blows, that ruled the nations in anger, with an attack that was unrestrained.
7 Celotna zemlja je pri počitku in mirna. Oni izbruhnejo v petje.
The whole earth is at rest and is quiet; they begin celebrating with singing.
8 Da, ciprese se razveseljujejo ob tebi in libanonske cedre, rekoč: ›Odkar si položen dol, noben sekalec ni prišel zoper nas.‹
Even the cypress trees rejoice over you with the cedars of Lebanon; they say, 'Since you are laid low, no woodcutter comes up to cut us down.'
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)
Sheol below is eager to meet you when you go there. It arouses the dead for you, all the kings of the earth, making them rise up from their thrones, all the kings of the 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 speak and say to you, 'You have become as weak as us. You have become like us.
11 Tvoj pomp je priveden dol h grobu in zvok tvojih lir. Ličinka se razteguje pod teboj in ličinke te pokrivajo. (Sheol h7585)
Your pomp has been brought down to Sheol with the sound of your string instruments. Maggots are spread under you, and worms cover you.' (Sheol h7585)
12 Kako si padel z neba, oh Lucifer, sin jutra! Kako si posekan na tla, ki si narode slabil!
How you are fallen from heaven, daystar, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, you who conquered the 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,
You had said in your heart, 'I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God, and I will sit on the mount of assembly, in the far reaches of the north.
14 nad višine oblakov se bom dvignil, podoben bom Najvišjemu.‹
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High God.'
Yet you are now brought down to Sheol, to the depths of the pit. (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,
Those who see you will gaze at you and they will pay attention to you. They will say, 'Is this the man who made the earth tremble, who shook kingdoms,
17 ki je naredil zemeljski [krog] kakor divjino in uničil njegova mesta, ki ni odprl hiše svojih ujetnikov?‹
who made the world like a wilderness, who overthrew its cities and did not let his prisoners go home?'
18 Vsi kralji narodov, celó vsi izmed njih, ležijo v slavi, vsak v svoji lastni hiši.
All the kings of the nations, all of them lie down in honor, each one in his own tomb.
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 you are cast out of your grave like a branch thrown away. The dead cover you like a garment, those pierced by the sword, who go down to the stones of the pit.
20 Ne boš pridružen z njimi pri pokopu, ker si uničil svojo deželo in umoril svoje ljudstvo. Seme hudodelcev nikoli ne bo ugledno.
You will not join them in burial, because you have destroyed your land and killed your people. The offspring of evildoers will never be mentioned again.”
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 your slaughter for his children, for the iniquity of their ancestors, so they will not rise up and possess the earth and fill the whole world with cities.
22 Kajti dvignil se bom proti njim, ‹ govori Gospod nad bojevniki ›in iztrebil iz Babilona ime in ostanek, sina in nečaka, ‹ govori Gospod.
“I will rise up against them”—this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts. “I will cut off from Babylon name, descendant, and posterity”—this is Yahweh's declaration.
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 her into a possession of owls, and into pools of water, and I will sweep her with the broom of destruction”—this is the declaration of Yahweh 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,
Yahweh of hosts has sworn, “Surely, as I have intended, so it will come about; and as I have purposed, so it will be:
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.‹«
I will break the Assyrian in my land, and on my mountains trample him underfoot. Then his yoke will be lifted from off them and his burden from off their shoulder.” Then his yoke will be lifted from off them and his burden from off their shoulder.”
26 To je namen, ki je namenjen nad celotno zemljo, in to je roka, ki je iztegnjena nad vsemi narodi.
This is the plan that is intended for the whole earth, and this is the hand that is raised 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 Yahweh of hosts has planned this; who will stop him? His hand is raised, and who will turn it back?
28 To breme je bilo v letu, ko je kralj Aház umrl.
In the year that king Ahaz died this declaration came:
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.
Do not rejoice, all you Philistines, that the rod that struck you is broken. For out of the serpent's root will grow out an adder, and his offspring will be a fiery flying serpent.
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.
The firstborn of the poor will graze their sheep in my pastures, and the needy will lie down in safety. I will kill your root with famine that will put to death all your survivors.
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.
Howl, gate; cry, city; all of you will melt away, Philistia. For out of the north comes a cloud of smoke, and there is no straggler in his ranks.
32 Kaj bo nekdo potem odgovoril poslancem naroda? Da je Gospod ustanovil Sion in revni izmed njegovega ljudstva bodo zaupali vanj.
How will they respond to the messengers of that nation? “Yahweh has founded Zion, and in her the afflicted of his people will find refuge.”
