< Izaija 6 >
1 V letu, ko je kralj Uzíjah umrl, sem videl tudi Gospoda sedeti na prestolu, visokega in dvignjenega in njegova vlečka je napolnila tempelj.
In the year of the death of king Uzziah — I see the Lord, sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and His train is filling the temple.
2 Nad njim so stali serafi. Vsak je imel šest peruti. Z dvema je pokril svoj obraz in z dvema je pokril svoja stopala in z dvema je letel.
Seraphs are standing above it: six wings hath each one; with two [each] covereth its face, and with two [each] covereth its feet, and with two [each] flieth.
3 Eden je vzklikal drugemu in govoril: »Svet, svet, svet je Gospod nad bojevniki. Celotna zemlja je polna njegove slave.«
And this one hath called unto that, and hath said: 'Holy, Holy, Holy, [is] Jehovah of Hosts, The fulness of all the earth [is] His glory.'
4 Podboji vrat so se premaknili ob glasu tistega, ki je vpil in hiša je bila napolnjena z dimom.
And the posts of the thresholds are moved by the voice of him who is calling, and the house is full of smoke.
5 Potem sem rekel: »Gorje meni! Kajti onemel sem, ker sem človek nečistih ustnic in prebivam v sredi ljudstva nečistih ustnic, kajti moje oči so videle kralja, Gospoda nad bojevniki.«
And I say, 'Woe to me, for I have been silent, For a man — unclean of lips [am] I, And in midst of a people unclean of lips I am dwelling, Because the King, Jehovah of Hosts, have my eyes seen.'
6 Potem je priletel k meni eden izmed serafov, ki je imel v svoji roki žerjavico, ki jo je s kleščami vzel od oltarja.
And flee unto me doth one of the seraphs, and in his hand a burning coal, (with tongs he hath taken [it] from off the altar, )
7 To je položil na moja usta in rekel: »Glej, to se je dotaknilo tvojih ustnic in tvoja krivičnost je odvzeta proč in tvoj greh je očiščen.«
and he striketh against my mouth, and saith: 'Lo, this hath stricken against thy lips, And turned aside is thine iniquity, And thy sin is covered.'
8 Slišal sem tudi glas od Gospoda, rekoč: »Koga naj pošljem in kdo bo šel za nas?« Potem sem rekel: »Tukaj sem, pošlji mene.«
And I hear the voice of the Lord, saying: 'Whom do I send? and who doth go for Us?' And I say, 'Here [am] I, send me.'
9 Rekel je: »Pojdi in povej temu ljudstvu: ›Resnično, poslušajte, toda ne razumite in resnično glejte, pa ne zaznajte.
And He saith, 'Go, and thou hast said to this people, Hear ye — to hear, and ye do not understand, And see ye — to see, and ye do not know.
10 Naredi srce tega ljudstva debelo in njihova ušesa naredi težka in zapri njihove oči, da ne bi videli s svojimi očmi in [ne bi] slišali s svojimi ušesi in [ne bi] razumeli s svojim srcem in ne bi bili spreobrnjeni in ne bi bili ozdravljeni.‹«
Declare fat the heart of this people, And its ears declare heavy, And its eyes declare dazzled, Lest it see with its eyes, And with its ears hear, and its heart consider, And it hath turned back, and hath health.'
11 Tedaj sem rekel: »Gospod, doklej?« Odgovoril je: »Dokler ne bodo mesta opustošena, brez prebivalca in hiše brez človeka in ne bo dežela popolnoma zapuščena
And I say, 'Till when, O Lord?' And He saith, 'Surely till cities have been wasted without inhabitant, And houses without man, And the ground be wasted — a desolation,
12 in Gospod je ljudi odstranil daleč proč in tam bo veliko zapuščanja v sredi dežele.
And Jehovah hath put man far off, And great [is] the forsaken part in the heart of the land.
13 Toda vendar bo v njej desetina in ta se bo vrnila in bo požrta; kakor terebinta in kakor hrast, katerega snov je v njiju, ko odvržeta svoje listje, tako bo sveto seme snov le-tega.«
And yet in it a tenth, and it hath turned, And hath been for a burning, As a teil-tree, and as an oak, that in falling, Have substance in them, The holy seed [is] its substance!'
