Isaiah 42
1 "Look, my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen one in whom my soul delights. I have put my Spirit on him, and he will bring justice to the nations.
Evo sluge mojega, kojega podupirem, izbranika mojega, koji je mio duši mojoj; metnuæu duh svoj na njega, sud narodima javljaæe.
2 He will not shout, nor raise his voice, nor cause it to be heard in the street.
Neæe vikati ni podizati, niti æe se èuti glas njegov po ulicama.
3 He won't break a bruised reed. And he won't extinguish a dimly burning wick. He will faithfully bring justice.
Trske stuèene neæe prelomiti, i svještila koje se puši neæe ugasiti; javljaæe sud po istini.
4 He will not grow dim or be crushed, until he has established justice on the earth, and in his name the coastlands will hope."
Neæe mu dosaditi, niti æe se umoriti, dokle ne postavi sud na zemlji, i ostrva æe èekati nauku njegovu.
5 Thus says God, YHWH, he who created the heavens and stretched them out, he who spread out the earth and that which comes out of it, he who gives breath to its people and spirit to those who walk in it.
Ovako govori Bog Gospod, koji je stvorio nebesa i razapeo ih, koji je rasprostro zemlju i što ona raða, koji daje disanje narodu što je na njoj i duh onima što hode po njoj:
6 "I, YHWH, have called you in righteousness, and will hold your hand, and will keep you, and make you a covenant for the people, as a light for the nations;
Ja Gospod dozvah te u pravdi, i držaæu te za ruku, i èuvaæu te, i uèiniæu te da budeš zavjet narodu, vidjelo narodima;
7 to open the blind eyes, to bring the prisoners out of the dungeon, and those who sit in darkness out of the prison.
Da otvoriš oèi slijepcima, da izvedeš sužnje iz zatvora i iz tamnice koji sjede u tami.
8 "I am YHWH. That is my name. I will not give my glory to another, nor my praise to engraved images.
Ja sam Gospod, to je ime moje, i slave svoje neæu dati drugome ni hvale svoje likovima rezanijem.
9 Look, the former things have happened, and I declare new things. I tell you about them before they come up."
Evo, preðašnje doðe, i ja javljam novo, prije nego nastane kazujem vam.
10 Sing to YHWH a new song, and his praise from the remotest parts of the earth, you who go down to the sea, and all that is in it, the islands and their inhabitants.
Pjevajte Gospodu pjesmu novu, hvalu njegovu od kraja zemlje, koji se plavite po moru i sve što je u njemu, ostrva i koji živite na njima.
11 Let the desert and its cities cry out, with the villages that Kedar inhabits. Let the inhabitants of Sela sing. Let them shout from the top of the mountains.
Pustinja i gradovi njezini, sela gdje stanuje Kidar, neka podignu glas, neka pjevaju koji žive po stijenama, neka klikuju savrh gora.
12 Let them give glory to YHWH, and declare his praise in the islands.
Neka daju slavu Gospodu, i hvalu njegovu neka javljaju po ostrvima.
13 YHWH will go out like a mighty man. He will stir up zeal like a man of war. He will raise a war cry. Yes, he will shout aloud. He will triumph over his enemies.
Gospod æe izaæi kao junak, podignuæe revnost svoju kao vojnik, vikaæe i klikovati, nadvladaæe neprijatelje svoje.
14 "I have been silent a long time. I have been quiet and restrained myself. Now I will cry out like a travailing woman. I will both gasp and pant.
Muèah dugo, èinjah se gluh, ustezah se; ali æu sada vikati kao žena kad se poraða, i sve æu potrti i istrijebiti.
15 I will destroy mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs. I will make the rivers islands, and will dry up the pools.
Opustiæu gore i bregove, i svaku travu na njima osušiæu, i od rijeka æu naèiniti ostrva, i jezera æu isušiti.
16 I will bring the blind by a way that they do not know. I will lead them in paths that they do not know. I will make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. I will do these things, and I will not forsake them.
I vodiæu slijepce putem kojega nijesu znali; vodiæu ih stazama kojih nijesu znali; obratiæu pred njima mrak u svjetlost i što je neravno u ravno. To æu im uèiniti, i neæu ih ostaviti.
17 "Those who trust in engraved images, who tell molten images, 'You are our gods' will be turned back. They will be utterly disappointed.
Tada æe se vratiti natrag i posramiti se koji se uzdaju u lik rezani, koji govore likovima livenijem: vi ste naši bogovi.
18 "Hear, you deaf, and look, you blind, that you may see.
Èujte, gluhi; progledajte, slijepi, da vidite.
19 Who is blind, but my servant? Or who is as deaf as my messenger whom I send? Who is as blind as he who is at peace, and as blind as YHWH's servant?
Ko je slijep osim sluge mojega? i ko je gluh kao poslanik moj kojega šaljem? ko je slijep kao savršeni? ko je slijep kao sluga Gospodnji?
20 You see many things, but do not observe. His ears are open, but he doesn't listen.
Gledaš mnogo, ali ne vidiš; otvorene su ti uši, ali ne èuješ.
21 It pleased YHWH, for his righteousness' sake, to magnify the law, and make it honorable.
Gospodu bijaše mio radi pravde njegove, uèini zakon velikim i slavnim.
22 But this is a robbed and plundered people. All of them are snared in holes, and they are hidden in prisons. They have become a prey, and no one delivers; and a spoil, and no one says, 'Restore them.'
A narod je oplijenjen i potlaèen, svi su koliki povezani u peæinama i sakriveni u tamnicama; postaše plijen, a nema nikoga da bi izbavio; postaše grabež, a nema nikoga da bi rekao: vrati.
23 Who is there among you who will give ear to this? Who will listen and hear for the time to come?
Ko izmeðu vas èuje ovo i pazi i sluša za poslije?
24 Who gave Jacob as plunder, and Israel to the robbers? Did not YHWH, he against whom we have sinned? For they would not walk in his ways, and they disobeyed his law.
Ko je dao Jakova da se potlaèi i Izrailja otimaèima? Nije li Gospod, kojemu zgriješismo? Jer ne htješe hoditi putovima njegovijem niti slušaše zakona njegova.
25 Therefore he poured the fierceness of his anger on him, and the strength of battle; and it set him on fire all around, but he did not know; and it burned him, but he did not take it to heart."
Zato izli na njih žestoku jarost svoju i silan rat, i zapali ga unaokolo, ali on ne razumje; zapali ga, ali on ne mari.
