Esias 60

1 Be enlightened, be enlightened, O Jerusalem, for your light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.

Vstani, zasij, kajti tvoja svetloba je prišla in Gospodova slava je vstala nad teboj.

2 Behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and [there shall be] gross darkness on the nations: but the Lord shall appear upon you, and his glory shall be seen upon you.

Kajti glej, tema bo prekrila zemljo in velika tema ljudstva, toda Gospod bo vstal nad teboj in njegova slava bo vidna na tebi.

3 And kings shall walk in your light, and nations in your brightness.

Pogani bodo prišli k tvoji svetlobi in kralji k siju tvojega vzhajanja.

4 Lift up your eyes round about, and behold your children gathered: all your sons have come from far, and your daughters shall be borne on [men's] shoulders.

Dvigni svoje oči naokoli in poglej. Vsi se zbirajo skupaj, prihajajo k tebi. Tvoji sinovi bodo prišli od daleč in tvoje hčere bodo negovane ob tvoji strani.

5 Then shall you see, and fear, and be amazed in your heart; for the wealth of the sea shall come round to you, and of nations and peoples; and herds of camels shall come to you,

Takrat boš videla in tekla skupaj in tvoje srce se bo balo in bo povečano, ker bo obilje morja obrnjeno k tebi, sile poganov bodo prišle k tebi.

6 and the camels of Madiam and Gaepha shall cover you: all from Saba shall come bearing gold, and shall bring frankincense, and they shall publish the salvation of the Lord.

Pokrila te bo množica kamel, [enogrbi] velblodi iz Midjána in Efe, vsi tisti iz Sabe bodo prišli. Prinesli bodo zlato in kadilo in naznanjali bodo Gospodove hvalnice.

7 And all the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered, and the rams of Nabaeoth shall come; and acceptable sacrifices shall be offered on my altar, and my house of prayer shall be glorified.

Vsi kedárski tropi bodo zbrani skupaj k tebi, Nebajótovi ovni ti bodo služili. Na moj oltar bodo prišli s sprejetjem in jaz bom proslavil hišo svoje slave.

8 Who are these [that] fly as clouds, and as doves with young ones to me?

Kdo so ti, ki letijo kakor oblak in kakor golobice k svojim oknom?

9 The isles have waited for me, and the ships of Tharsis amongst the first, to bring your children from afar, and their silver and their gold with them, and [that] for the sake of the holy name of the Lord, and because the Holy One of Israel is glorified.

Otoki bodo zagotovo čakali name in spredaj ladje iz Taršíša, da privedejo tvoje sinove od daleč, njihovo srebro in njihovo zlato z njimi, k imenu Gospoda, tvojega Boga in k Svetemu Izraelovemu, ker te je proslavil.

10 And strangers shall build your walls, and their kings shall wait upon you: for by reason of my wrath I struck you, and by reason of mercy I loved you.

Sinovi tujcev bodo zgradili tvoja obzidja in njihovi kralji ti bodo služili, kajti v svojem besu sem te udaril, toda v svoji naklonjenosti sem imel usmiljenje nad teboj.

11 And your gates shall be opened continually; they shall not be shut day nor night; to bring in to you the power of the Gentiles, and their kings as captives.

Zato bodo tvoja velika vrata nenehno odprta; ne podnevi ne ponoči ne bodo zaprta, da ti bodo ljudje lahko prinašali sile poganov in da bodo lahko privedeni njihovi kralji.

12 For the nations and the kings which will not serve you shall perish; and those nations shall be made utterly desolate.

Kajti narod in kraljestvo, ki ti ne bo služilo, bo propadlo; da, ti narodi bodo popolnoma opustošeni.

13 And the glory of Libanus shall come to you, with the cypress, and pine, and cedar together, to glorify my holy place.

Slava Libanona bo prišla k tebi, cipresa, bor in pušpan skupaj, da olepšajo kraj mojega svetišča in kraj svojih stopal bom naredil veličasten.

14 And the sons of them that afflicted you, and of them that provoked you, shall come to you in fear; and you shall be called Sion, the city of the Holy One of Israel.

Tudi sinovi tistih, ki so te prizadeli, bodo prišli, upogibajoč se k tebi in vsi, ki so te prezirali, se bodo priklonili pri podplatih tvojih stopal in imenovali te bodo: › Gospodovo mesto, Sion Svetega Izraelovega.‹

15 Because you has become desolate and hated, and there was no helper, therefore I will make you a perpetual gladness, a joy of many generations.

Kakor si bila zapuščena in osovražena, tako da noben človek ni šel skozi tebe, te bom naredil za večno odličnost, radost mnogih rodov.

16 And you shall suck the milk of the Gentiles, and shall eat the wealth of kings: and shall know that I am the Lord that saves you and delivers you, the Holy One of Israel.

Prav tako boš sesala mleko poganov in sesala prsi kraljev in vedela boš, da sem jaz, Gospod, tvoj Odrešenik in tvoj Odkupitelj, Mogočni Jakobov.

17 And for brass I will bring you gold, and for iron I will bring you silver, and instead of wood I will bring you brass, and instead of stones, iron; and I will make your princes peaceful, and your overseers righteous.

Za bron bom prinesel zlato in za železo bom prinesel srebro in za les bron in za kamne železo. Prav tako bom postavil [za] tvoje častnike mir in tvoje priganjače pravičnost.

18 And injustice shall no more be heard in your land, nor destruction nor misery in your coasts; but your walls shall be called Salvation, and your gates Sculptured Work.

Nasilja ne bo več slišati v tvoji deželi niti pustošenja niti uničenja znotraj tvojih meja, temveč boš svoja obzidja imenovala Odrešenje in svoja velika vrata Hvala.

19 And you shall no more have the sun for a light by day, nor shall the rising of the moon lighten your night; but the Lord shall be your everlasting light, and God your glory.

Sonce ne bo več tvoja svetloba podnevi niti ti za sijaj luna ne bo dajala svetlobe, temveč ti bo Gospod večna svetloba in tvoj Bog tvoja slava.

20 For the sun shall no more set, nor shall the moon be eclipsed; for the Lord shall be your everlasting light, and the days of your mourning shall be completed.

Tvoje sonce ne bo več zašlo niti se tvoja luna ne bo umaknila, kajti Gospod bo tvoja večna svetloba in dnevi tvojega žalovanja bodo končani.

21 Your people also shall be all righteous; they shall inherit the land for ever, preserving that which they have planted, [even] the works of their hands, for glory.

Prav tako tvoje ljudstvo – vsi bodo pravični. Podedovali bodo deželo na veke, mladiko mojega sajenja, delo mojih rok, da bom lahko proslavljen.

22 The little one shall become thousands, and the least a great nation; I the Lord will gather them in [due] time.

Najmanjši bo postal tisoč in malček mogočen narod. Jaz, Gospod, bom to pospešil ob svojem času.
