Isaija 7
1 U vrijeme Ahaza sina Jotama sina Ozije cara Judina doðe Resin car Sirski i Fakej sin Remalijin car Izrailjev na Jerusalim da ga biju, ali ga ne mogoše uzeti.
And it happened in the days of Ahaz, the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, the king of Judah, that Rezin, the king of Syria, and Pekah, the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, ascended to Jerusalem to battle against it. But they were not able to defeat it.
2 I doðe glas domu Davidovu i rekoše: Sirija se složi s Jefremom. A srce Ahazovo i srce naroda njegova ustrepta kao drveæe u šumi od vjetra.
And they reported to the house of David, saying: “Syria has withdrawn to Ephraim.” And his heart was shaken, with the heart of his people, just as the trees of the forest are moved by the face of the wind.
3 Tada reèe Gospod Isaiji: izidi na susret Ahazu, ti i Sear-jasuv sin tvoj, nakraj jaza gornjega jezera, na put kod polja bjeljareva.
And the Lord said to Isaiah: Go out to meet Ahaz, you and your son, Jashub, who was left behind, to the end of the aqueduct, at the upper pool, on the road to the fuller’s field.
4 I reci mu: èuvaj se i budi miran, ne boj se i srce tvoje neka se ne plaši od dva kraja ovijeh glavanja što se puše, od raspaljenoga gnjeva Resinova i Sirskoga i sina Remalijina.
And you shall say to him: “See to it that you are silent. Do not be afraid. And have no dread in your heart over the two tails of these firebrands, nearly extinguished, which are the wrath of the fury of Rezin, king of Syria, and of the son of Remaliah.”
5 Što se Sirci i Jefrem i sin Remalijin dogovoriše na tvoje zlo govoreæi:
For Syria has undertaken a plan against you, with the evil of Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, saying:
6 Hajdemo na Judejsku da joj dosadimo i da je osvojimo i da postavimo u njoj carem sina Taveilova;
“Let us ascend to Judah, and stir it up, and tear it away for ourselves, and appoint the son of Tabeel as a king in its midst.”
7 Zato ovako veli Gospod Bog: neæe se to uèiniti, neæe biti.
Thus says the Lord God: This shall not stand, and this shall not be.
8 Jer je glava Siriji Damasak, a Damasku je glava Resin; i do šezdeset i pet godina satræe se Jefrem tako da više neæe biti narod.
For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin; and within sixty-five years from now, Ephraim will cease to be a people.
9 I glava je Jefremu Samarija, a Samariji je glava sin Remalijin. Ako ne vjerujete, neæete se održati.
For the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is the son of Remaliah. If you will not believe, you will not continue.
10 I još reèe Gospod Ahazu govoreæi:
And the Lord spoke further to Ahaz, saying:
Ask for a sign for yourself from the Lord your God, from the depths below, even to the heights above. (Sheol h7585)
12 A Ahaz reèe: neæu iskati, niti æu kušati Gospoda.
And Ahaz said, “I will not ask, for I will not tempt the Lord.”
13 Tada reèe Isaija: slušajte sada, dome Davidov; malo li vam je što dosaðujete ljudima, nego dosaðujete i Bogu mojemu?
And he said: “Then listen, O house of David. Is it such a small thing for you to trouble men, that you must also trouble my God?
14 Zato æe vam sam Gospod dati znak: eto djevojka æe zatrudnjeti i rodiæe sina, i nadjenuæe mu ime Emanuilo.
For this reason, the Lord himself will grant to you a sign. Behold, a virgin will conceive, and she will give birth to a son, and his name will be called Immanuel.
15 Maslo i med ješæe, dokle ne nauèi odbaciti zlo a izabrati dobro.
He will eat butter and honey, so that he may know to reject evil and to choose good.
16 Jer prije nego nauèi dijete odbaciti zlo a izabrati dobro, ostaviæe zemlju, na koju se gadiš, dva cara njezina.
But even before the boy knows to refuse evil and to choose good, the land that you detest will be abandoned by the face of her two kings.
17 Gospod æe pustiti na te i na narod tvoj i na dom oca tvojega dane, kakih nije bilo otkad se Jefrem odvoji od Jude, preko cara Asirskoga.
The Lord will lead over you, and over your people, and over the house of your father, such days as have not occurred since the days of the separation of Ephraim from Judah by the king of the Assyrians.
18 I tada æe Gospod zazviždati muhama koje su nakraj rijeka Misirskih, i pèelama koje su u zemlji Asirskoj;
And this shall be in that day: the Lord will call for the fly, which is in the most distant parts of the rivers of Egypt, and for the swarm, which is in the land of Assur.
19 I doæi æe i popadaæe sve u puste doline i u kamene rasjeline i na sve èeste i na svako drvce.
And they will arrive, and they all will rest in the torrents of the valleys, and in the caverns of the rocks, and in every thicket, and in every opening.
20 Tada æe Gospod obrijati britvom zakupljenom ispreko rijeke, carem Asirskim, glavu i dlake po nogama, i bradu svu.
In that day, the Lord will shave with a razor the ones hired by those who are across the river, by the king of the Assyrians, from the head to the hairs of the feet, with the entire beard.
21 I tada ko saèuva kravicu i dvije ovce,
And this shall be in that day: a man will raise a cow among oxen, and two sheep,
22 Od mnoštva mlijeka što æe davati ješæe maslo; jer maslo i med ješæe ko god ostane u zemlji.
and, instead of an abundance of milk, he will eat butter. For all who are left behind in the midst of the land will eat butter and honey.
23 I tada æe svako mjesto gdje ima tisuæa èokota za tisuæu srebrnika zarasti u èkalj i trnje.
And this shall be in that day: every place, where there were a thousand grapevines worth a thousand pieces of silver, will become thorns and briers.
24 Sa strijelama i s lukom iæi æe se onamo, jer æe sva zemlja biti èkalj i trnje.
They will enter such places with arrows and bows. For briers and thorns will be throughout the entire land.
25 A na sve gore koje su se kopale motikom, na njih neæe doæi strah od èkalja i trnja, nego æe biti ispust volovima i gaziæe ih ovce.
But as for all the mountains, which will be dug with a hoe, the terror of thorns and briers will not approach those places. And there will be pasture land for oxen, and a range for cattle.”
