Izaija 29
1 Gorje Ariélu, Ariélu, mestu, kjer je prebival David! Dodajte letu leto; naj ubijejo žrtve.
Ah, Ariel, Ariel, the city where David encamped! Add ye year to year, let the feasts come round!
2 Vendar bom Ariél spravil v tegobo in tam bo potrtost in bridkost in ta mi bo kakor Ariél.
Then will I distress Ariel, and there shall be mourning and moaning; and she shall be unto Me as a hearth of God.
3 Utaboril se bom naokoli zoper tebe in zoper tebe bom položil obleganje z nasipom in zoper tebe bom dvignil utrdbe.
And I will encamp against thee round about, and will lay siege against thee with a mound, and I will raise siege works against thee.
4 Ponižan boš in govoril boš iz zemlje in tvoj govor iz prahu bo znižan in tvoj glas bo kakor od nekoga, ki ima osebnega duha iz zemlje in tvoj govor bo šepetal iz prahu.
And brought down thou shalt speak out of the ground, and thy speech shall be low out of the dust; and thy voice shall be as of a ghost out of the ground, and thy speech shall chirp out of the dust.
5 Poleg tega bo množica tvojih tujcev podobna drobnemu prahu in množica strahovitežev bo kakor pleve, ki mineva. Da, to bo v trenutku, nenadoma.
But the multitude of thy foes shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones as chaff that passeth away; yea, it shall be at an instant suddenly —
6 Od Gospoda nad bojevniki boš obiskan z gromom in s potresom in z velikim hrupom, z viharjem, neurjem in plamenom požirajočega ognja.
There shall be a visitation from the LORD of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with whirlwind and tempest, and the flame of a devouring fire.
7 Množica vseh narodov, ki se bori zoper Ariél, celo vsi, ki se borijo proti njemu in njegovemu oporišču in ki ga stiskajo, bodo kakor sanje nočnega videnja.
And the multitude of all the nations that war against Ariel, even all that war against her, and the bulwarks about her, and they that distress her, shall be as a dream, a vision of the night.
8 To bo torej kakor kadar lačen človek sanja in glej, on jé; toda zbuja se, njegova duša pa je prazna. Ali kakor kadar žejen človek sanja in glej pije; toda zbudi se in glej, je oslabel, njegova duša pa ima apetit. Takšna bo množica vseh narodov, ki se borijo zoper goro Sion.
And it shall be as when a hungry man dreameth, and, behold, he eateth, but he awaketh, and his soul is empty; or as when a thirsty man dreameth, and, behold, he drinketh, but he awaketh, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul hath appetite — so shall the multitude of all the nations be, that fight against mount Zion.
9 Ustavite se in se čudite, strmite in glejte. Pijani so, toda ne zaradi vina; omahujejo, toda ne zaradi močne pijače.
Stupefy yourselves, and be stupid! Blind yourselves, and be blind! ye that are drunken, but not with wine, that stagger, but not with strong drink.
10 Kajti Gospod je na vas izlil duha globokega spanja in zaprl vaše oči. Preroke in vaše vladarje, vidce je pokril.
For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes; the prophets, and your heads, the seers, hath He covered.
11 Videnje vsega vam je postalo kakor besede knjige, ki je zapečatena, ki jo ljudje izročijo nekomu, ki je učen, rekoč: ›Beri to, prosim te.‹ Ta pa pravi: ›Ne morem, kajti zapečatena je.‹
And the vision of all this is become unto you as the words of a writing that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying: 'Read this, I pray thee'; and he saith: 'I cannot, for it is sealed';
12 In knjiga je izročena tistemu, ki ni učen, rekoč: ›Beri to, prosim te.‹ In ta pravi: ›Nisem učen.‹
and the writing is delivered to him that is not learned, saying: 'Read this, I pray thee'; and he saith: 'I am not learned.'
13 Zato je Gospod rekel: »Ker se mi to ljudstvo približuje s svojimi usti in me časti s svojimi ustnicami, toda svoje srce so odstranili daleč proč od mene in je njihov strah proti meni naučen s človeškimi predpisi,
And the Lord said: Forasmuch as this people draw near, and with their mouth and with their lips do honour Me, but have removed their heart far from Me, and their fear of Me is a commandment of men learned by rote;
14 zato, glej, nadaljeval bom, da storim čudovito delo med tem ljudstvom, celó čudovito delo in čudo, kajti modrost njihovih modrih mož bo izginila in razumevanje njihovih preudarnih mož bo skrito.
Therefore, behold, I will again do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder; and the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the prudence of their prudent men shall be hid.
15 Gorje tistim, ki globoko iščejo, da skrijejo svoj naklep pred Gospodom in so njihova dela v temi in govorijo: »Kdo nas vidi? In kdo nas pozna?«
Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the LORD, and their works are in the dark, and they say: 'Who seeth us? and who knoweth us?'
16 Zagotovo bo vaše sprevračanje stvari na glavo veljalo kakor lončarjevo ilo. Mar bo delo reklo o tistem, ki ga je naredil: »Ta me ni naredil?« Mar bo oblikovana stvar rekla o tistem, ki jo je oblikoval: »Ta nima razumevanja?«
O your perversity! Shall the potter be esteemed as clay; that the thing made should say of him that made it: 'He made me not'; or the thing framed say of him that framed it: 'He hath no understanding?'
17 Mar ni le še malo in Libanon bo spremenjen v rodovitno polje in rodovitno polje bo veljalo kakor gozd?
Is it not yet a very little while, and Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest?
18 Na ta dan bodo gluhi slišali besede iz knjige in oči slepega bodo videle iz nejasnosti in iz teme.
And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of a book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity and out of darkness.
19 Tudi krotki bodo povečali svojo radost v Gospodu in revni med možmi se bodo razveseljevali v Svetem Izraelovem.
The humble also shall increase their joy in the LORD, and the neediest among men shall exult in the Holy One of Israel.
20 Kajti strahovitež je priveden v nič in posmehljivec je použit in vsi tisti, ki so pozorni na krivičnost, so iztrebljeni;
For the terrible one is brought to nought, and the scorner ceaseth, and all they that watch for iniquity are cut off;
21 ki človeka delajo za prestopnika zaradi besede in polagajo zanko za tistega, ki graja pri velikih vratih in pravičnega odvračajo zaradi ničnosti.
That make a man an offender by words, and lay a snare for him that reproveth in the gate, and turn aside the just with a thing of nought.
22 Zato tako govori Gospod, ki je odkupil Abrahama, glede Jakobove hiše: »Jakob sedaj ne bo osramočen niti njegov obraz sedaj ne bo obledel.
Therefore thus saith the LORD, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob: Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale;
23 Temveč ko vidi svoje otroke, delo mojih rok v svoji sredi, bodo posvetili moje ime in posvetili Svetega Jakobovega in se bodo bali Izraelovega Boga.
When he seeth his children, the work of My hands, in the midst of him, that they sanctify My name; yea, they shall sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall stand in awe of the God of Israel.
24 Tudi tisti, ki so se motili v duhu, bodo prišli k razumevanju in tisti, ki so godrnjali, se bodo naučili nauka.
They also that err in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmur shall learn instruction.
