Isaiah 23
1 The burden of Tyre. Howl, ye ships of Tarshish; for it is laid waste, so that there is no house, no entering in: from the land of Chittim it is revealed to them.
Breme Tiru. Ridajte laðe Tarsiske, jer je raskopan, da nema kuæe niti ko dolazi. Iz zemlje Kitimske javi im se.
2 Be still, ye inhabitants of the isle; thou whom the merchants of Zidon, that pass over the sea, have replenished.
Umuknite koji živite na ostrvu, koje trgovci Sidonski pomorci puniše.
3 And by great waters the seed of Sihor, the harvest of the river, [is] her revenue; and she is a mart of nations.
I dohodi mu bijahu po velikim vodama sjeme Siorsko, žetva s rijeke, i bješe trg narodima.
4 Be thou ashamed, O Zidon: for the sea hath spoken, [even] the strength of the sea, saying, I travail not, nor bring forth children, neither do I nourish young men, [nor] bring up virgins.
Stidi se, Sidone, jer govori more, sila morska veli: ne muèim se poroðajem, ne raðam, ne odgajam momaka, ne podižem djevojaka.
5 As at the report concerning Egypt, [so] shall they be sorely pained at the report of Tyre.
Kao što se ožalostiše kad èuše za Misir, tako æe se ožalostiti kad èuju za Tir.
6 Pass ye over to Tarshish; howl, ye inhabitants of the isle.
Idite u Tarsis, ridajte ostrvljani!
7 [Is] this your joyous [city], whose antiquity [is] of ancient days? her own feet shall carry her far off to sojourn.
Je li to vaš veseli grad, kojega je starina od davnina? njegove æe ga noge zanijeti daleko u tuðinstvo.
8 Who hath taken this counsel against Tyre, the crowning [city], whose merchants [are] princes, whose traders [are] the honorable of the earth?
Ko je to smislio na Tir, koji razdavaše vijence, èiji trgovci bjehu knezovi, i prekupci slavni na zemlji?
9 The LORD of hosts hath purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, [and] to bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth.
Gospod je nad vojskama to smislio, da osramoti ponos svake slave i da poništi sve slavne na zemlji.
10 Pass through thy land as a river, O daughter of Tarshish: [there is] no more strength.
Prijeði preko zemlje svoje kao potok, kæeri Tarsiska; nema više pojasa.
11 He stretched his hand over the sea, he shook the kingdoms: the LORD hath given a commandment against the merchant [city], to destroy its strong holds.
Ruku svoju podiže na more, zadrma carstva; Gospod je zapovjedio za Hanan da se raskopaju gradovi njegovi.
12 And he said, Thou shalt no more rejoice, O thou oppressed virgin, daughter of Zidon: arise, pass over to Chittim; there also shalt thou have no rest.
I veli: neæeš se više veseliti, osramoæena djevojko, kæeri Sidonska. Ustani, idi u Kitim, ni ondje neæeš imati mira.
13 Behold the land of the Chaldeans; this people was not, [till] the Assyrian founded it for them that dwell in the wilderness: they set up its towers, they raised up its palaces; [and] he brought it to ruin.
Eto zemlje Haldejske; toga naroda nije bilo; Asur je osnova za one koji življahu u pustinjama, podigoše kule u njoj, pogradiše dvorove; i obrati se u razvaline.
14 Howl, ye ships of Tarshish: for your strength is laid waste.
Ridajte laðe Tarsiske, jer je raskopan vaš grad.
15 And it shall come to pass in that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king: after the end of seventy years shall Tyre sing as a harlot.
I tada æe Tir biti zarobljen sedamdeset godina, za vijek jednoga cara, a poslije sedamdeset godina pjevaæe se Tiru kao kurvi:
16 Take a harp, go about the city, thou harlot that hast been forgotten; make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou mayest be remembered.
Uzmi gusle, idi po gradu, zaboravljena kurvo; dobro udaraj, pjevaj i popijevaj, eda bi te se opet opomenuli.
17 And it shall come to pass after the end of seventy years, that the LORD will visit Tyre, and she shall turn to her hire, and shall commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth.
Jer poslije sedamdeset godina Gospod æe pohoditi Tir, a on æe se vratiti na kurvarsku zaslugu svoju, i kurvaæe se sa svijem carstvima na zemlji.
18 And her merchandise and her hire shall be holiness to the LORD: it shall not be treasured nor laid up; for her merchandise shall be for them that dwell before the LORD, for sufficient food, and for durable clothing.
Ali æe trgovina njegova i zasluga njegova biti posveæena Gospodu, neæe se ostavljati ni èuvati, nego æe trgovina njegova biti onima koji nastavaju pred Gospodom da jedu do sitosti i imaju odijelo dobro.
