< Isaija 1 >

1 Utvara Isaije sina Amosova, koju vidje za Judu i za Jerusalim za vremena Ozije, Joatana, Ahaza i Jezekije, careva Judinijeh.
The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
2 Èujte, nebesa, i slušaj, zemljo; jer Gospod govori: sinove odgojih i podigoh, a oni se odvrgoše mene.
Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth: for the LORD has spoken, I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me.
3 Vo poznaje gospodara svojega i magarac jasle gospodara svojega, a Izrailj ne poznaje, narod moj ne razumije.
The ox knows his owner, and the ass his master’s crib: but Israel does not know, my people does not consider.
4 Da grješna naroda! naroda ogrezla u bezakonju! sjemena zlikovaèkoga, sinova pokvarenijeh! ostaviše Gospoda, prezreše sveca Izrailjeva, otstupiše natrag.
Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the LORD, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel to anger, they are gone away backward.
5 Što biste još bili bijeni kad se sve više odmeæete? Sva je glava bolesna i sve srce iznemoglo.
Why should you be stricken any more? you will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.
6 Od pete do glave nema ništa zdrava, nego uboj i modrice i rane gnojave, ni iscijeðene ni zavijene ni uljem zablažene.
From the sole of the foot even to the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrefying sores: they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment.
7 Zemlja je vaša pusta, gradovi vaši ognjem popaljeni; vaše njive jedu tuðini na vaše oèi, i pustoš je kao što opustošavaju tuðini.
Your country is desolate, your cities are burned with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.
8 I osta kæi Sionska kao koliba u vinogradu, kao sjenica u gradini od krastavaca, kao grad opkoljen.
And the daughter of Zion is left as a cottage in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city.
9 Da nam Gospod nad vojskama nije ostavio malo ostatka, bili bismo kao Sodom, izjednaèili bismo se s Gomorom.
Except the LORD of hosts had left to us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like to Gomorrah.
10 Èujte rijeè Gospodnju, knezovi Sodomski, poslušajte zakon Boga našega, narode Gomorski!
Hear the word of the LORD, you rulers of Sodom; give ear to the law of our God, you people of Gomorrah.
11 Što æe mi mnoštvo žrtava vaših? veli Gospod. Sit sam žrtava paljenica od ovnova i pretiline od gojene stoke, i ne marim za krv junèiju i jagnjeæu i jareæu.
To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices to me? says the LORD: I am full of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.
12 Kad dolazite da se pokažete preda mnom, ko ište to od vas, da gazite po mom trijemu?
When you come to appear before me, who has required this at your hand, to tread my courts?
13 Ne prinosite više žrtve zaludne; na kad gadim se; a o mladinama i subotama i o sazivanju skupštine ne mogu podnositi bezakonja i svetkovine.
Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination to me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.
14 Na mladine vaše i na praznike vaše mrzi duša moja, dosadiše mi, dodija mi podnositi.
Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hates: they are a trouble to me; I am weary to bear them.
15 Zato kad širite ruke svoje, zaklanjam oèi svoje od vas; i kad množite molitve, ne slušam; ruke su vaše pune krvi.
And when you spread forth your hands, I will hide my eyes from you: yes, when you make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.
16 Umijte se, oèistite se, uklonite zloæu djela svojih ispred oèiju mojih, prestanite zlo èiniti.
Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes; cease to do evil;
17 Uèite se dobro èiniti, tražite pravdu, ispravljajte potlaèenoga, dajite pravicu siroti, branite udovicu.
Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.
18 Tada doðite, veli Gospod, pa æemo se suditi: ako grijesi vaši budu kao skerlet, postaæe bijeli kao snijeg; ako budu crveni kao crvac, postaæe kao vuna.
Come now, and let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
19 Ako hoæete slušati, dobra zemaljska ješæete.
If you be willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land:
20 Ako li neæete, nego budete nepokorni, maè æe vas pojesti, jer usta Gospodnja rekoše.
But if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD has spoken it.
21 Kako posta kurva vjerni grad? Pun bijaše pravice, pravda nastavaše u njemu, a sada krvnici.
How is the faithful city become an harlot! it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.
22 Srebro tvoje posta troska, vino tvoje pomiješa se s vodom.
Your silver is become dross, your wine mixed with water:
23 Knezovi su tvoji odmetnici i drugovi lupežima; svaki miluje mito i ide za darovima; siroti ne daju pravice, i parnica udovièka ne dolazi pred njih.
Your princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves: every one loves gifts, and follows after rewards: they judge not the fatherless, neither does the cause of the widow come to them.
24 Zato govori Gospod, Gospod nad vojskama, silni Izrailjev: aha! izdovoljiæu se na protivnicima svojim, i osvetiæu se neprijateljima svojim.
Therefore says the LORD, the LORD of hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Ah, I will ease me of my adversaries, and avenge me of my enemies:
25 I okrenuæu ruku svoju na te, i sažeæi æu troske tvoje da te preèistim, i ukloniæu sve olovo tvoje.
And I will turn my hand on you, and purely purge away your dross, and take away all your tin:
26 I postaviæu ti opet sudije kao prije, i savjetnike kao ispoèetka; tada æeš se zvati grad pravedni, grad vjerni.
And I will restore your judges as at the first, and your counsellors as at the beginning: afterward you shall be called, The city of righteousness, the faithful city.
27 Sion æe se otkupiti sudom, i pravdom oni koji se u nj vrate.
Zion shall be redeemed with judgment, and her converts with righteousness.
28 A odmetnici i grješnici svi æe se satrti, i koji ostavljaju Gospoda, izginuæe.
And the destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together, and they that forsake the LORD shall be consumed.
29 Jer æete se posramiti od gajeva koje željeste, i zastidjeti se od vrtova koje izabraste.
For they shall be ashamed of the oaks which you have desired, and you shall be confounded for the gardens that you have chosen.
30 Jer æete biti kao hrast kojemu opada lišæe i kao vrt u kom nema vode.
For you shall be as an oak whose leaf fades, and as a garden that has no water.
31 I biæe junak kao kuèine i djelo njegovo kao iskra, i oboje æe se zapaliti, i neæe biti nikoga da ugasi.
And the strong shall be as wick, and the maker of it as a spark, and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench them.
