Isaiah 57
1 The just man perishes, and there is no one who acknowledges it in his heart; and men of mercy are taken away, for there is no one who understands. For the just man has been taken away before the face of malice.
Pravični propada in nihče si tega ne jemlje k srcu. Usmiljeni ljudje so odvzeti, nihče ne preudarja, da je pravični odvzet pred zlom, ki pride.
2 Let peace arrive. Let he who has walked in his righteousness find rest on his bed.
Vstopil bo v mir. Počivali bodo v svojih posteljah, vsakdo, ki hodi v svoji poštenosti.
3 But come here, you sons of the prophetess, you offspring of an adulterous man and a fornicating woman.
Toda približajte se sèm, vi sinovi čarodejk, seme zakonolomca in vlačuge.
4 Whom are you mocking? Against whom have you opened your mouth wide and wagged your tongue? Are you not sons of wickedness, a lying offspring,
Zoper koga se zabavate? Zoper koga širite usta in iztezate jezik? Mar niste otroci prestopka, seme neresnice,
5 who are being consoled by idols under every leafy tree, immolating little children at the torrents, under the high rocks?
ki se vnemate z maliki pod vsakim zelenim drevesom, ki koljete otroke v dolinah pod skalnimi pečinami?
6 Your portion is in the currents of the torrent; this is your lot! And you yourselves have poured out libations to them; you have offered sacrifice. Should I not be angry over these things?
Med gladkimi kamni vodotoka je tvoj delež; ti, ti so tvoj žreb. Celo njim si izlivala pitno daritev, darovala si jedilno daritev. Mar naj prejmem tolažbo v teh?
7 Upon a high and lofty mountain, you have placed your bed, and you have ascended to that place to immolate victims.
Na vzvišeni in visoki gori si si postavila svojo posteljo, celo tja gor odhajaš, da daruješ klavno daritev.
8 And behind the door, and beyond the post, you have set up your memorial. For you uncovered yourself next to me, and you received an adulterer. You widened your bed, and you formed a pact with them. You loved their bed with an open hand.
Tudi za vrati in podboji si postavila svoj spomin, kajti odkrila si se drugemu kot meni in odšla gor. Razširila si svojo posteljo in sklenila zavezo z njimi; ljubila si njihovo posteljo, kjer si jo videla.
9 And you have adorned yourself for the king with ointments, and you have increased your cosmetics. You have sent your representatives to distant places, and you have debased yourself all the way to Hell. (Sheol h7585)
Odhajaš h kralju z mazilom, množila si svoje dišave, svoje poslance si poslala daleč in sebe si ponižala celo do pekla. (Sheol h7585)
10 You have been wearied by the multitude of your own ways. Yet you did not say, “I will cease.” You have found life by your own hand; because of this, you have not prayed.
Izmučena si v veličini svojih poti, vendar ne praviš: ›Tam ni upanja.‹ Našla si življenje svoje roke, zato nisi bila užaloščena.
11 For whose sake have you been anxiously afraid, so that you would lie and not be mindful of me, nor consider me in your heart? For I am silent, and I am like someone who does not see, and so you have forgotten me.
Pred kom si bila prestrašena ali si se bala, da si lagala in se nisi spomnila mene niti si tega nisi vzela k srcu? Mar nisem molčal celo od davnine in se me ne bojiš?
12 I will announce your justice, and your works will not benefit you.
Razglašal bom tvojo pravičnost in tvoja dela, kajti ne bodo ti koristila.
13 When you cry out, let your followers free you. But the wind will carry them all away; a breeze will take them up. But he who has faith in me will inherit the earth and will possess my holy mountain.
Ko vpiješ, naj te tvoje trume rešijo; toda veter jih bo vse odnesel proč, ničevost jih bo vzela. Toda tisti, ki svoje trdno upanje polaga vame, bo vzel v last deželo in podedoval mojo sveto goro
14 And I will say: “Make way! Grant passage! Move to the side of the path! Take the obstacles out of the way of my people!”
in rekel bo: ›Nasujte, nasujte, pripravite pot, vzemite kamen spotike iz poti mojega ljudstva.‹
15 For this is said by the Most High, the Sublime One, who dwells in eternity. And his name is Holy, for he dwells in the exalted and holy place, and he acts with a restrained and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite.
Kajti tako govori Visoki in Vzvišeni, ki naseljuje večnost, čigar ime je Sveti: ›Prebivam na visokem in svetem kraju, pa tudi s tistim, ki je skesanega in ponižnega duha, da oživim duha ponižnega in da oživim srce skesanega.
16 For I will not contend unceasingly, and I will not be angry to the end. For I will exhale my breath, and the Spirit will go forth from my face.
Kajti ne bom se prepiral na veke niti ne bom vedno besen, kajti duh bi opešal pred menoj in duše, ki sem jih naredil.
17 Because of the iniquity of his avarice, I was angry, and I struck him down. I concealed my face from you, and I was angry. And he went astray by wandering in his heart.
Zaradi krivičnosti njegove pohlepnosti sem bil besen in ga udaril. Skril sem se in bil besen, on pa je kljubovalno odšel po poti svojega srca.
18 I saw his ways, and I healed him, and I led him back again, and I restored consolations to him and to those who mourn for him.
Videl sem njegove poti in ozdravil ga bom. Prav tako ga bom vodil in obnovil tolažbe njemu in njegovim žalovalcem.
19 I created the fruit of the lips: peace, peace to him who is far away, and peace to him who is near, said the Lord, and I healed him.
Jaz ustvarjam sad ustnic: ›Mir, mir tistemu, ki je daleč proč in tistemu, ki je blizu, ‹ govori Gospod ›in jaz ga bom ozdravil.
20 But the impious are like the raging sea, which is not able to be quieted, and its waves stir up dirt and mud.
Toda zlobni so kot razburkano morje, kadar ne more počivati, katerega vode bljuvajo blato in umazanijo.
21 There is no peace for the impious, says the Lord God.
Tam ni miru, ‹ govori moj Bog, ›zlobnemu.‹«
