Isaija 14
1 Jer æe se smilovati Gospod na Jakova, i opet æe izabrati Izrailja, i namjestiæe ih u zemlji njihovoj, i prilijepiæe se k njima došljaci i pridružiæe se domu Jakovljevu.
And the Lord will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and they shall rest on their land: and the stranger shall be added to them, yea, shall be added to the house of Jacob.
2 Jer æe ih uzeti narodi i odvesti na mjesto njihovo, i naslijediæe ih Izrailjci u zemlji Gospodnjoj da im budu sluge i sluškinje, i zarobiæe one koji ih bjehu zarobili, i biæe gospodari svojim nasilnicima.
And the Gentiles shall take them, and bring them into their place: and they shall inherit them, and they shall be multiplied upon the land for servants and handmaidens: and they that took them captives shall become captives [to them]; and they that had lordship over them shall be under [their] rule.
3 I kad te smiri Gospod od truda tvojega i muke i od ljutoga ropstva u kom si robovao,
And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the Lord shall give thee rest from thy sorrow and vexation, [and from] thy hard servitude wherein thou didst serve them.
4 Tada æeš izvoditi ovu prièu o caru Vavilonskom i reæi æeš: kako nesta nastojnika, nesta danka?
And thou shalt take up this lamentation against the king of Babylon, How has the extortioner ceased, and the taskmaster ceased!
5 Slomi Gospod štap bezbožnicima, palicu vladaocima,
The Lord has broken the yoke of sinners, the yoke of princes.
6 Koja je ljuto bila narode bez prestanka, i gnjevno vladala nad narodima, i gonila nemilice.
Having smitten a nation in wrath, with an incurable plague, smiting a nation with a wrathful plague, which spared [them] not, he rested in quiet.
7 Sva zemlja poèiva i mirna je; pjevaju iza glasa.
All the earth cries aloud with joy:
8 Vesele se s tebe i jele i kedri Livanski govoreæi: otkako si pao, ne dolazi niko da nas sijeèe.
the trees also of Libanus rejoice against thee, and the cedar of Libanus, [saying], From the time that thou hast been laid low, no one has come up to cut us down.
9 Pakao dolje uskoleba se tebe radi da te srete kad doðeš, probudi ti mrtvace i sve knezove zemaljske, diže s prijestola njihovijeh sve careve narodne. (Sheol h7585)
Hell from beneath is provoked to meet thee: all the great ones that have ruled over the earth have risen up together against thee, they that have raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations. (Sheol h7585)
10 Svi æe progovoriti i reæi tebi: i ti li si iznemogao kao mi? izjednaèio se s nama?
All shall answer and say to thee, Thou also hast been taken, even as we; and thou art numbered amongst us.
11 Spusti se u pakao ponos tvoj, zveka psaltira tvojih; prostrti su poda te moljci, a crvi su ti pokrivaè. (Sheol h7585)
Thy glory has come down to Hades, and thy great mirth: under thee they shall spread corruption, and the worm shall be thy covering. (Sheol h7585)
12 Kako pade s neba, zvijezdo danice, kæeri zorina? kako se obori na zemlju koji si gazio narode?
How has Lucifer, that rose in the morning, fallen from heaven! He that sent [orders] to all the nations is crushed to the earth.
13 A govorio si u srcu svom: izaæi æu na nebo, više zvijezda Božijih podignuæu prijesto svoj, i sješæu na gori zbornoj na strani sjevernoj;
But thou saidst in thine heart, I will go up to heaven, I will set my throne above the stars of heaven: I will sit on a lofty mount, on the lofty mountains toward the north:
14 Izaæi æu u visine nad oblake, izjednaèiæu se s višnjim.
I will go up above the clouds: I will be like the Most High.
But now thou shalt go down to hell, even to the foundations of the earth. (Sheol h7585)
16 Koji te vide pogledaæe na te, i gledaæe te govoreæi: to li je onaj koji je tresao zemlju, koji je drmao carstva,
They that see thee shall wonder at thee, and say, This is the man that troubled the earth, that made kings to shake;
17 Koji je vasiljenu obraæao u pustinju, i gradove njezine raskopavao? roblje svoje nije otpuštao kuæi?
that made the whole world desolate, and destroyed its cities; he loosed not those who were in captivity.
18 Svi carevi narodni, svikoliki, leže slavno, svaki u svojoj kuæi.
All the kings of the nations lie in honour, [every] man in his house.
19 A ti se izbaci iz groba svojega, kao gadna grana, kao haljina pobijenijeh, maèem pobodenijeh, koji slaze u jamu kamenu, kao pogaženi strv.
But thou shalt be cast forth on the mountains, as a loathed carcase, with many dead who have been pierced with swords, going down to the grave.
20 Neæeš se združiti s njima pogrebom, jer si zemlju svoju zatro, narod si svoj ubio; neæe se spominjati sjeme zlikovaèko dok je vijeka.
As a garment defiled with blood shall not be pure, so neither shalt thou be pure; because thou hast destroyed my land, and hast slain my people: thou shalt not endure for ever, —[thou] an evil seed.
21 Pripravite pokolj sinovima njegovijem za bezakonje otaca njihovijeh da se ne podignu i ne naslijede zemlje i ne napune vasiljene gradovima.
Prepare thy children to be slain for the sins of their father; that they arise not, and inherit the earth, nor fill the earth with wars.
22 Jer æu ustati na njih, govori Gospod nad vojskama, i zatræu ime Vavilonu i ostatak, i sina i unuka, govori Gospod.
And I will rise up against them, saith the Lord of hosts, and I will destroy their name, and remnant, and seed: thus saith the Lord.
23 I naèiniæu od njega stan æukovima i jezera vodena, i omešæu ga metlom pogibli, govori Gospod nad vojskama.
And I will make the region of Babylon desert, so that hedgehogs shall dwell [there], and it shall come to nothing: and I will make it a pit of clay for destruction.
24 Zakle se Gospod nad vojskama govoreæi: doista, biæe kako sam smislio, i kako sam naumio izvršiæe se.
Thus saith the Lord of hosts, As I have said, so it shall be: and as I have purposed, so [the matter] shall remain:
25 Potræu Asirca u zemlji svojoj, na gorama svojim izgaziæu ga; tada æe se skinuti s njih jaram njegov, i breme njegovo s pleæa njihovijeh skinuæe se.
[even] to destroy the Assyrians upon my land, and upon my mountains: and they shall be for trampling; and their yoke shall be taken away from them, and their glory shall be taken away from their shoulders.
26 To je namišljeno svoj zemlji, i to je ruka podignuta na sve narode.
This is the purpose which the Lord has purposed upon the whole earth: and this the hand that is uplifted against all the nations.
27 Jer je Gospod nad vojskama naumio, ko æe razbiti? i njegovu ruku podignutu ko æe odvratiti?
For what the Holy God has purposed, who shall frustrate? and who shall turn back his uplifted hand?
28 Godine koje umrije car Ahaz bi objavljeno ovo breme:
In the year in which king Achaz died this word came.
29 Nemoj se radovati, zemljo Filistejska svakolika, što se slomi prut onoga koji te je bio; jer æe iz korijena zmijinjega niknuti zmija vasilinska, i plod æe mu biti zmaj ognjeni krilati.
Rejoice not, all ye Philistines, because the yoke of him that smote you is broken: for out of the seed of the serpent shall come forth the young asps, and their young shall come forth flying serpents,
30 I prvenci siromaški nahraniæe se, i ubogi æe poèivati bez straha; a tvoj æu korijen umoriti glaðu, i ostatak tvoj on æe pobiti.
And the poor shall be fed by him, and poor men shall rest in peace: but he shall destroy thy seed with hunger, and shall destroy thy remnant.
31 Ridajte, vrata; vièi, grade; rastopila si se, sva zemljo Filistejska, jer sa sjevera ide dim i niko se neæe osamiti u zborovima njegovijem.
Howl, ye gates of cities; let the cities be troubled and cry, [even] all the Philistines: for smoke is coming from the north, and there is no [possibility] of living.
32 I šta æe se odgovoriti poslanicima narodnijem? Da je Gospod osnovao Sion i da æe u nj utjecati nevoljnici naroda njegova.
And what shall the kings of the nations answer? That the Lord has founded Sion, and by him the poor of the people shall be saved.
