Izaija 30
1 »Gorje upornim otrokom, « govori Gospod, »ki jemljejo nasvet, toda ne od mene in ki se pokrivajo s pokrivalom, toda ne od mojega duha, da lahko grehu dodajo greh,
Woe to the rebellious children, saith Jehovah, who take counsel, but not of me, and who make leagues, but not by my Spirit, that they may heap sin upon sin;
2 ki hodijo, da bi šli dol v Egipt, pa niso vprašali pri mojih ustih, da se ojačajo v faraonovi moči in da zaupajo v egiptovsko senco!
who walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked of my mouth, — to take refuge under the protection of Pharaoh, and trust in the shadow of Egypt!
3 Zato bo faraonova moč vaša sramota in zaupanje v egiptovsko senco vaša zmeda.
For to you the protection of Pharaoh shall be a shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt a confusion.
4 Kajti njegovi princi so bili pri Coanu in njegovi predstavniki so prišli do Hanésa.
For his princes were at Zoan, and his ambassadors came to Hanes.
5 Vsi so bili osramočeni od ljudstva, ki jim ni moglo koristiti niti jim biti v pomoč niti dobiček, temveč sramota in tudi graja.
They were all ashamed of a people [that] did not profit them, nor were a help or profit, but a shame, and also a reproach.
6 Breme živali juga. V deželo stiske in tesnobe, od koder je prišel mlad in star lev, gad in strupena leteča kača, bodo svoja bogastva odnesli na ramenih mladih oslov in svoje zaklade na kameljih grbah k ljudstvu, ki jim ne bo koristilo.
— The burden of the beasts of the south: Through a land of trouble and anguish, whence come the lioness and lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they carry their riches upon the shoulders of asses, and their treasures upon the bunches of camels, to the people that shall not profit [them].
7 Kajti Egipčani bodo pomagali v prazno in zaman, zato sem glede tega klical: ›Njihova moč mora prenehati.‹
For Egypt shall help in vain, and to no purpose; therefore have I named her, Arrogance, that doeth nothing.
8 Torej pojdite, zapišite to pred njimi na tablo in zabeležite v knjigo, da bo lahko za čas, ki pride na veke vekov,
Now go, write it before them on a tablet, and record it in a book, that it may be for the time to come, as a witness for ever,
9 da je to uporno ljudstvo, lažnivi otroci, otroci, ki nočejo poslušati Gospodove postave,
that this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of Jehovah;
10 ki vidcem pravijo: ›Ne vidite‹ in prerokom: ›Ne prerokujte nam pravilnih stvari, govorite nam laskave stvari, prerokujte prevare.
who say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things; speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits;
11 Spravite se iz poti, odvrnite se iz steze, Svetemu Izraelovemu naredite, da odide izpred nas.‹«
get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us!
12 Zatorej tako govori Sveti Izraelov: »Ker prezirate to besedo in zaupate v zatiranje in perverznost in ostajate na njej,
Therefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel: Because ye reject this word, and confide in oppression and wilfulness, and depend thereon,
13 zato vam bo ta krivičnost kakor vrzel, pripravljena, da pade, naraščajoča iz visokega obzidja, katerega zlom pride nenadoma, v trenutku.
therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a towering wall, whose breaking shall come suddenly in an instant.
14 Zlomil ga bo kakor lomljenje lončarjeve posode, ki je zdrobljena na koščke. Ne bo prizanesel, tako da tam, v lomljenju le-tega, ne bo najti črepinje, da bi vzel ogenj iz ognjišča ali da bi s tem zajel vodo iz vrča.
And he shall break it as the breaking of a potter's vessel, that is broken in pieces unsparingly; and in the pieces of it there shall not be found a sherd to take fire from the hearth, or to scoop water out of the cistern.
15 Kajti tako govori Gospod Bog, Sveti Izraelov: »›V vračanju in počivanju boste rešeni; v spokojnosti in zaupanju bo vaša moč, ‹ pa niste hoteli.
For thus saith the Lord Jehovah, the Holy One of Israel: In returning and rest shall ye be saved, in quietness and confidence shall be your strength; but ye would not.
16 Temveč ste rekli: ›Ne, kajti bežali bomo na konjih; ‹ zatorej boste bežali. ›Jahali bomo na naglih; ‹ zato bodo tisti, ki vas preganjajo, nagli.
And ye said, No, but we will flee upon horses, — therefore shall ye flee; and, We will ride upon the swift, — therefore shall they that pursue you be swift.
17 Tisoč jih bo bežalo ob graji enega; ob graji petih boste bežali, dokler ne boste ostali kakor drog na vrhu gore in kakor zastava na hribu.«
One thousand [shall flee] at the rebuke of one; at the rebuke of five shall ye flee: till ye be left as a beacon upon the top of a mountain, and as a banner on a hill.
18 Zato bo Gospod čakal, da vam bo lahko milostljiv in zato bo povzdignjen, da bo lahko imel usmiljenje do vas, kajti Gospod je Bog sodbe. Blagoslovljeni so vsi tisti, ki čakajo nanj.
And therefore will Jehovah wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he lift himself up, that he may have mercy upon you; for Jehovah is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for him.
19 Kajti ljudstvo bo prebivalo na Sionu, pri Jeruzalemu. Ne boš več jokal. Zelo ti bo milostljiv ob glasu tvojega klica; ko ga bo zaslišal, ti bo odgovoril.
For the people shall dwell in Zion, at Jerusalem. Thou shalt weep no more; he will be very gracious unto thee at the voice of thy cry; as he heareth it, he will answer thee.
20 Čeprav ti Gospod daje kruh nadloge in vodo stiske, vendar tvoji učitelji ne bodo več odstranjeni v kot, temveč bodo tvoje oči videle tvoje učitelje
And the Lord will give you the bread of adversity, and the water of oppression; yet thy teachers shall not be hidden any more, but thine eyes shall see thy teachers.
21 in tvoja ušesa bodo slišala za teboj besedo, rekoč: »To je pot, po njej hodite, « ko se obrnete k desnici in ko se obrnete k levici.
And when ye turn to the right hand or when ye turn to the left, thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it.
22 Omadeževali boste tudi pokrivalo svojih rezanih podob iz srebra in ornament svojih ulitih podob iz zlata. Vrgel jih boš proč kakor menstrualno krpo; temu boš rekel: »Pojdi ven.«
And ye shall defile the silver covering of your graven images, and the gold overlaying of your molten images; thou shalt cast them away as a menstruous cloth: Out! shalt thou say unto it.
23 Potem bo dal dež tvojemu semenu, da boš z njim posejal tla in kruh od donosa zemlje in to bo debelo in obilno. Na ta dan se bo tvoja živina pasla na velikih pašnikih.
And he will give the rain of thy seed with which thou shalt sow the ground; and bread, the produce of the ground, and it shall be fat and rich. In that day shall thy cattle feed in large pastures;
24 Prav tako bodo voli in mladi osli, ki obdelujejo zemljišče, jedli čisto krmo, ki je bila prevejana z lopato in z vejálnikom.
and the oxen and the asses that till the ground shall eat salted provender, which hath been winnowed with the shovel and with the fan.
25 Tam bodo na vsaki visoki gori in na vsakem visokem hribu reke in potoki vodá, na dan velikega pokola, ko bodo padli stolpi.
And there shall be upon every high mountain and upon every hill that is lifted up, brooks [and] water-courses, in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.
26 Poleg tega bo svetloba lune kakor svetloba sonca in svetloba sonca bo sedemkratna, kakor svetloba sedmih dni, na dan, ko Gospod obveže vrzel svojega ljudstva in ozdravi udarec njihove rane.
And the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that Jehovah bindeth up the breach of his people, and healeth the wound of their stroke.
27 Glej, ime Gospoda prihaja od daleč, goreč z njegovo jezo in njegovo breme je težko. Njegove ustnice so polne ogorčenja in njegov jezik kakor požirajoč ogenj.
Behold, the name of Jehovah cometh from far, burning [with] his anger — a grievous conflagration; his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a consuming fire;
28 Njegov dih bo kakor preplavljajoč vodotok segel do sredine vratu, da narode preseje s sitom ničnosti in tam bo brzda v čeljustih ljudstva, ki jim bo povzročala, da se opotekajo.
and his breath as an overflowing torrent, which reacheth even to the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of destruction, and [to put] a bridle into the jaws of the peoples, that causeth them to go astray.
29 Imeli boste pesem, kakor v noči, ko se praznuje sveta slovesnost; in veselje srca, kakor ko gre nekdo s piščaljo, da pride na Gospodovo goro, k Mogočnemu Izraelovemu.
Ye shall have a song, as in the night when a feast is sanctified; and joy of heart, as of one who goeth with a pipe to come unto the mountain of Jehovah, to the Rock of Israel.
30 Gospod bo svojemu veličastnemu glasu povzročil, da bo slišan in pokazal bo spuščanje svojega lakta, z ogorčenjem svoje jeze in s plamenom požirajočega ognja, z razprševanjem, neurjem in zrni toče.
And Jehovah will cause the majesty of his voice to be heard, and will shew the lighting down of his arm with indignation of anger, and a flame of consuming fire, with waterflood and storm and hailstones.
31 Kajti preko Gospodovega glasu bo Asirec, ki je udaril s palico, potolčen.
For through the voice of Jehovah shall the Assyrian be broken down: he will smite [him] with the rod.
32 Na vsakem kraju, kjer bo prešla osnovana palica, ki jo bo Gospod položil nanj, bo to z bobniči in harfami, in v bitkah vihtenja se bo boril z njo.
And wherever shall pass the appointed staff, which Jehovah shall lay upon him, it shall be with tambours and harps; and with tumultuous battles will he fight with it.
33 Kajti Tofet je odrejen od davnine; da, za kralja je pripravljen; naredil ga je globokega in velikega. Njegova grmada je ogenj in veliko lesa. Gospodov dih ga vname kakor tok žvepla.
For Topheth is prepared of old; for the king also it is prepared: he hath made it deep and large; its pile is fire and much wood; the breath of Jehovah, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it.
