Izaija 16
1 Pošljite jagnje k vladarju dežele iz Sele k divjini, h gori hčere sionske.
Send ye the lamb to the ruler of the land from Sela to the wilderness, to the mount of the daughter of Zion.
2 Kajti zgodilo se bo, da kakor je tavajoč ptič vržen iz gnezda, tako bodo moábske hčere pri prehodih Arnóna.
For it shall be, that, as a wandering bird cast out of the nest, so the daughters of Moab shall be at the fords of Arnon.
3 Posvetuj se, izvrši sodbo, svojo senco naredi kakor noč v sredi opoldneva, skrij pregnance, ne izdaj tistega, ki tava.
Take counsel, execute judgment; make thy shadow as the night in the midst of the noonday; hide the outcasts; discover not him that wandereth.
4 Naj moji pregnanci prebivajo s teboj, Moáb. Bodi jim skrivališče pred obličjem plenilca. Izsiljevalec je pri koncu, plenilec pojenjuje, kajti zatiralci so použiti iz dežele.
Let my outcasts dwell with thee, Moab; be thou a covert to them from the face of the spoiler: for the extortioner is at an end, the spoiler ceaseth, the oppressors are consumed out of the land.
5 V usmiljenju bo prestol postavljen in sedel bo na njem v resnici, v Davidovem šotorskem svetišču, sodeč, iščoč sodbe in pospešujoč pravičnost.
And in mercy shall the throne be established: and he shall sit upon it in truth in the tabernacle of David, judging, and seeking judgment, and swiftly executing righteousness.
6 Slišali smo o Moábovem ponosu; zelo je ponosen, celó o njegovi oholosti in njegovem ponosu in njegovem besu, toda njegove laži ne bodo takšne.
We have heard of the pride of Moab; he is very proud: even of his haughtiness, and his pride, and his wrath: but his lies shall not be so.
7 Zato bo Moáb tulil za Moábom, vsi bodo tulili, kajti temelji Kir Heresa bodo žalovali; zagotovo so udarjeni.
Therefore shall Moab wail for Moab, every one shall wail: for the foundations of Kirhareseth shall ye mourn; surely they are stricken.
8 Kajti hešbónska polja pešajo in vino iz Sibme. Gospodarji poganov so zlomili njegove glavne sadike, prišli so celó do Jazêrja, tavali so skozi divjino. Njegovi poganjki se iztezajo, odšli so preko morja.
For the fields of Heshbon languish, and the vine of Sibmah: the lords of the heathen have broken down its principal plants, they have come even to Jazer, they wandered through the wilderness: her branches are extended, they have gone over the sea.
9 Zato bom z jokom objokoval sibmansko trto iz Jazêrja. Namakal te bom s svojimi solzami, oh Hešbón in Elaléja, zaradi vpitja za tvojimi poletnimi sadovi in ker je tvoja žetev propadla.
Therefore I will bewail with the weeping of Jazer the vine of Sibmah: I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh: for the shouting for thy summer fruits and for thy harvest is fallen.
10 Veselje je odvzeto in radost iz obilnega polja in v vinogradih ne bo prepevanja niti ne bo vriskanja niti tam ne bo vpitja. Tlačitelji ne bodo tlačili nobenega vina v svojih stiskalnicah; njihovemu vriskanju ob trgatvi sem naredil, da odneha.
And gladness is taken away, and joy from the plentiful field; and in the vineyards there shall be no singing, neither shall there be shouting: the treaders shall tread out no wine in their presses; I have made their vintage shouting to cease.
11 Zato bo moja notranjost zvenela kakor harfa za Moábom in moji notranji deli za Kir Heresom.
Therefore my heart shall sound like an harp for Moab, and my inward parts for Kirharesh.
12 In zgodilo se bo, ko bo videno, da je Moáb izmučen na visokih krajih, da bo prišel k svojemu svetišču, da moli, toda ne bo prevladal.
And it shall come to pass, when it is seen that Moab is weary on the high place, that he shall come to his sanctuary to pray; but he shall not prevail.
13 To je beseda, ki jo je od tistega časa Gospod govoril glede Moába.
This is the word that the LORD hath spoken concerning Moab since that time.
14 Toda sedaj je Gospod govoril, rekoč: »Znotraj treh let, kakor so najemnikova leta in Moábova slava bo zaničevana z vso tisto veliko množico in preostanek bo zelo majhen in slaboten.«
But now the LORD hath spoken, saying, Within three years, as the years of an hireling, and the glory of Moab shall be despised, with all that great multitude; and the remnant shall be very small and feeble.
