< Isaiah 51 >

1 Hearken to me, ye that follow after righteousness, ye that seek the LORD: look to the rock [whence] ye are hewn, and to the hole of the pit [whence] ye are digged.
Poslušajte me koji idete za pravdom, koji tražite Gospoda; pogledajte stijenu iz koje ste isjeèeni, i duboku jamu iz koje ste iskopani;
2 Look to Abraham your father, and to Sarah [that] bore you: for I called him alone, and blessed him, and increased him.
Pogledajte Avrama, oca svojega, i Saru, koja vas je rodila, kako ga inokosna pozvah i blagoslovih ga i umnožih ga.
3 For the LORD will comfort Zion: he will comfort all her waste places; and he will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
Jer æe Gospod utješiti Sion, utješiæe sve razvaline njegove, i pustinju njegovu uèiniæe da bude kao Edem i pustoš njegova kao vrt Gospodnji, radost æe se i veselje nalaziti u njemu, zahvaljivanje i pjevanje.
4 Hearken to me, my people; and give ear to me, O my nation: for a law shall proceed from me, and I will make my judgment to rest for a light of the people.
Poslušaj me, narode moj, i èuj me, rode moj; jer æe zakon od mene izaæi i sud svoj postaviæu da bude vidjelo narodima.
5 My righteousness [is] near; my salvation is gone forth, and my arms shall judge the people; the isles shall wait upon me, and on my arm shall they trust.
Blizu je pravda moja, izaæi æe spasenje moje, i mišice æe moje suditi narodima; mene æe ostrva èekati i u moju æe se mišicu uzdati.
6 Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath: for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall become old like a garment, and its inhabitants shall die in like manner: but my salvation shall be for ever, and my righteousness shall not be abolished.
Podignite k nebu oèi svoje i pogledajte dolje na zemlju; jer æe nebesa išèeznuti kao dim i zemlja æe kao haljina ovetšati, i koji na njoj žive pomrijeæe takoðer; a spasenje æe moje ostati dovijeka, i pravde moje neæe nestati.
7 Hearken to me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart [is] my law; fear ye not the reproach of men, neither be ye afraid of their revilings.
Poslušajte me koji znate pravdu, narode, kojemu je u srcu zakon moj. Ne bojte se ruženja ljudskoga i od huljenja njihova ne plašite se.
8 For the moth shall eat them like a garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool: but my righteousness shall be for ever, and my salvation from generation to generation.
Jer æe ih moljac izjesti kao haljinu, i kao vunu izješæe ih crv; a pravda moja ostaje dovijeka i spasenje moje od koljena na koljeno.
9 Awake, awake, put on thy strength, O arm of the LORD; awake, as in the ancient days, in the generations of old. [Art] thou not that which hath cut Rahab, [and] wounded the dragon?
Probudi se, probudi se, obuci se u silu, mišico Gospodnja; probudi se kao u staro vrijeme, za naraštaja prošlijeh; nijesi li ti isjekla Ravu i ranila zmaja?
10 [Art] thou not that which hath dried the sea, the waters of the great deep; that hath made the depths of the sea a way for the ransomed to pass over?
Nijesi li ti isušila more, vodu bezdana velikoga, od dubine morske naèinila put da proðu izbavljeni?
11 Therefore the redeemed of the LORD shall return, and come with singing to Zion; and everlasting joy [shall be] upon their head: they shall obtain gladness and joy; sorrow and mourning shall flee away.
Tako oni koje iskupi Gospod neka se vrate i doðu u Sion pjevajuæi, i veselje vjeèno neka bude nad glavom njihovom; radost i veselje neka zadobiju, a žalost i uzdisanje neka bježi.
12 I, [even] I, [am] he that comforteth you: who [art] thou, that thou shouldest be afraid of a man [that] shall die, and of the son of man [who] shall be made [as] grass;
Ja, ja sam utješitelj vaš; ko si ti da se bojiš èovjeka smrtnoga i sina èovjeèijega, koji je kao trava?
13 And forgettest the LORD thy maker, that hath stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and hast feared continually every day because of the fury of the oppressor, as if he were ready to destroy? and where [is] the fury of the oppressor?
I zaboravio si Boga tvorca svojega, koji je razapeo nebesa i osnovao zemlju? i jednako se bojiš svaki dan gnjeva onoga koji te pritješnjuje kad se sprema da zatire? a gdje je gnjev onoga koji pritješnjuje?
14 The captive exile hasteneth that he may be loosed, and that he should not die in the pit, nor that his bread should fail.
Brzo æe se oprostiti sužanj, neæe umrijeti u jami, niti æe biti bez hljeba.
15 But I [am] the LORD thy God, that divided the sea, whose waves roared: The LORD of hosts [is] his name.
Jer sam ja Gospod Bog tvoj, koji raskidam more, da valovi njegovi buèe; Gospod nad vojskama ime mi je.
16 And I have put my words in thy mouth, and have covered thee in the shade of my hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and say to Zion, Thou [art] my people.
Ja ti metnuh u usta rijeèi svoje i sjenom ruke svoje zaklonih te, da utvrdim nebesa i osnujem zemlju, i reèem Sionu: ti si moj narod.
17 Awake, awake, stand up, O Jerusalem, which hast drank at the hand of the LORD the cup of his fury; thou hast drank the dregs of the cup of trembling, [and] wrung [them] out.
Probudi se, probudi se, ustani, Jerusalime! koji si pio iz ruke Gospodnje èašu gnjeva njegova, pio si, i talog iz strašne èaše ispio si.
18 [There is] none to guide her among all the sons [whom] she hath brought forth; neither [is there any] that taketh her by the hand of all the sons [that] she hath brought up.
Od svijeh sinova koje je rodio nijedan ga nije vodio, i od svijeh sinova koje je othranio nijedan ga nije prihvatio za ruku.
19 These two [things] have come to thee; who shall be sorry for thee? desolation, and destruction, and famine, and the sword: by whom shall I comfort thee?
Ovo te dvoje zadesi; ko te požali? Pustoš i rasap, i glad i maè; ko æe te utješiti?
20 Thy sons have fainted, they lie at the head of all the streets, as a wild bull in a net: they are full of the fury of the LORD, the rebuke of thy God.
Sinovi tvoji obamrli leže po krajevima svijeh ulica kao bivo u mreži puni gnjeva Gospodnjega, i karanja Boga tvojega.
21 Therefore hear now this, thou afflicted, and drunken, but not with wine:
Zato èuj ovo, nevoljni, i pijani, ne od vina.
22 Thus saith thy Lord Jehovah, and thy God [that] pleadeth the cause of his people, Behold, I have taken out of thy hand the cup of trembling, [even] the dregs of the cup of my fury; thou shalt no more drink it again:
Ovako veli Gospod tvoj, Gospod i Bog tvoj, koji brani svoj narod: evo uzimam iz tvoje ruke èašu strašnu, talog u èaši gnjeva svojega; neæeš više piti.
23 But I will put it into the hand of them that afflict thee; who have said to thy soul, Prostrate thyself, that we may go over: and thou hast laid thy body as the ground, and as the street, to them that went over.
Nego æu je dati u ruke onima koji te muèe, koji govoriše duši tvojoj: sagni se da prijeðemo, i ti si im podmetao leða svoja da budu kao zemlja i kao ulica onima koji prelaze.
