Isaiah 17
1 The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap.
Breme Damasku. Gle, Damasak æe se ukinuti da ne bude više grad, nego æe biti gomila razvalina.
2 The cities of Aroer are forsaken: they shall be for flocks, which shall lie down, and none shall make them afraid.
Gradovi Aroirski biæe ostavljeni, biæe za stada, te æe u njima poèivati, i niko ih neæe plašiti.
3 The fortress also shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Syria: they shall be as the glory of the children of Israel, saith Yhwh of Armies.
Nestaæe gradova Jefremovijeh i carstva u Damasku i ostatku Sirskom, biæe kao slava sinova Izrailjevijeh, veli Gospod nad vojskama.
4 And in that day it shall come to pass, that the glory of Jacob shall be made thin, and the fatness of his flesh shall wax lean.
I u taj æe dan istanèati slava Jakovljeva, i debelo tijelo njegovo omršaæe.
5 And it shall be as when the harvestman gathereth the grain, and reapeth the heads with his arm; and it shall be as he that gathereth heads in the valley of Rephaim.
Jer æe biti kao kad žetelac sabira žito i rukom žanje klasje, i biæe kao kad se kupi klasje u dolini Rafajskoj.
6 Yet gleaning grapes shall be left in it, as the shaking of an olive tree, two or three berries in the top of the uppermost bough, four or five in the outmost fruitful branches thereof, saith Yhwh God of Israel.
Ali æe se ostaviti u njoj pabirci kao kad se otrese maslina, pa dvije tri ostanu u vrhu, i èetiri pet na rodnijem granama, veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev.
7 At that day shall a man look to his Maker, and his eyes shall have respect to the Holy One of Israel.
U to æe vrijeme èovjek pogledati na tvorca svojega, i oèi njegove gledaæe na sveca Izrailjeva;
8 And he shall not look to the altars, the work of his hands, neither shall respect that which his fingers have made, either the groves, or the images.
A neæe pogledati na oltare, djelo ruku svojih, niti æe gledati na ono što su naèinili prsti njegovi, ni na lugove ni na likove sunèane.
9 In that day shall his strong cities be as a forsaken bough, and an uppermost branch, which they left because of the children of Israel: and there shall be desolation.
U to æe vrijeme tvrdi gradovi njegovi biti kao ostavljen grm i ogranak, jer æe se ostaviti radi sinova Izrailjevijeh, i biæe pustoš.
10 Because thou hast forgotten the God of thy salvation, and hast not been mindful of the rock of thy strength, therefore shalt thou plant pleasant plants, and shalt set it with strange slips:
Jer si zaboravio Boga spasenja svojega, i nijesi se sjeæao stijene sile svoje; zato sadi krasne sadove i lozu stranu presaðuj;
11 In the day shalt thou make thy plant to grow, and in the morning shalt thou make thy seed to flourish: but the harvest shall be a heap in the day of grief and of desperate sorrow.
Danju radi da uzraste što posadiš, i jutrom gledaj da ti sjeme nikne; ali kad doðe do branja razgrabiæe se, i ostaæe ti ljuta žalost.
12 Woe to the multitude of many people, which make a noise like the noise of the seas; and to the rushing of nations, that make a rushing like the rushing of mighty waters!
Teško mnoštvu velikih naroda, što buèe kao što buèe mora, i uzavrelijem narodima, kojih stoji vreva kao silnijeh voda;
13 The nations shall rush like the rushing of many waters: but God shall rebuke them, and they shall flee far off, and shall be chased as the chaff of the mountains before the wind, and like a rolling thing before the whirlwind.
Vreva stoji naroda kao velikih voda; ali æe povikati na njih, i oni æe pobjeæi daleko, i biæe gonjeni kao pljeva po brdima od vjetra i kao prah od vihora.
14 And behold at eveningtide trouble; and before the morning he is not. This is the portion of them that spoil us, and the lot of them that rob us.
Uveèe eto straha, i prije nego svane nema nikoga. To je dio onijeh koji nas gaze, i našljedstvo onijeh koji otimlju od nas.
