Ovadija 1
1 Utvara Avdijeva. Ovako veli Gospod Gospod za Edomsku: èusmo glas od Gospoda, i glasnik bi poslan k narodima: ustajte, da ustanemo na nju u boj.
The vision of Obadiah. The Lord Yahweh says this concerning Edom: We have heard a report from Yahweh and an ambassador has been sent among the nations, saying, “Rise up! Let us rise up against her for battle!”
2 Gle, uèiniæu te malijem meðu narodima, biæeš vrlo prezren.
Behold, I will make you small among the nations, you will be greatly despised.
3 Ponos srca tvojega prevari te, tebe, koji živiš u rasjelinama kamenijem, u visokom stanu svom, i govoriš u srcu svom: ko æe me oboriti na zemlju?
The pride of your heart has deceived you, you who live in the clefts of the rock, in your lofty home; who say in your heart, “Who will bring me down to the ground?”
4 Da podigneš visoko kao orao i meðu zvijezde da metneš gnijezdo svoje, odande æu te oboriti, govori Gospod.
Though you soar high like the eagle and though your nest is set among the stars, I will bring you down from there, says Yahweh.
5 Kako si oplijenjen? da su došli k tebi kradljivci ili lupeži noæu, ne bi li pokrali koliko im je dosta? da su došli k tebi beraèi vinogradski, ne bi li ostavili pabiraka?
If thieves came to you, if robbers came by night—how you will be ruined!—would they not steal only as much as they needed? If grape gatherers came to you, would they not leave the gleanings?
6 Kako se pretraži Isav, kako se naðoše potaje njegove!
How Esau has been ransacked, his hidden treasures will be searched out!
7 Do granice te odvedoše svi koji bijahu s tobom u vjeri, prevariše te i nadvladaše te koji bijahu u miru s tobom; koji jedu hljeb tvoj podmetnuše ti zamku, da se ne opazi.
All the men of your alliance will send you on your way to the border. The men who were at peace with you have deceived you, and prevailed against you. They who eat your bread have set a trap under you. There is no understanding in him.
8 U onaj dan, govori Gospod, neæu li pogubiti mudre u zemlji Edomskoj i razumne u gori Isavovoj?
“Will I not on that day,” says Yahweh, “destroy the wise men from Edom and understanding out of the mountain of Esau?
9 I tvoji æe se junaci uplašiti, Temane, da se istrijebe pokoljem svi iz gore Isavove.
Your mighty men will be dismayed, Teman, so that every man may be cut off from the mountain of Esau by slaughter.
10 Za nasilje uèinjeno bratu tvojemu Jakovu pokriæe te stid i istrijebiæeš se zasvagda.
Because of the violence done to your brother Jacob, you will be covered with shame, and you will be cut off forever.
11 Onaj dan, kad ti stajaše nasuprot; onaj dan, kad inostranci odvoðahu u ropstvo vojsku njegovu, i tuðinci ulažahu na vrata njegova i bacahu ždrijeb za Jerusalim, bješe i ti kao koji od njih.
On the day you stood aloof, on the day strangers carried away his wealth, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots for Jerusalem, you were like one of them.
12 Ali ti ne trebaše gledati dana brata svojega, dana, kad se odvoðaše u tuðu zemlju, niti se radovati sinovima Judinijem u dan kad propadahu, niti razvaljivati usta u dan nevolje njihove.
But do not gloat over your brother's day, in the day of his misfortune, and do not rejoice over the people of Judah in the day of their destruction; do not boast in the day of their distress.
13 Ne trebaše ti uæi na vrata naroda mojega u dan pogibli njihove, ne trebaše da i ti gledaš zlo njihovo u dan pogibli njihove ni da se mašaš dobra njihova u dan pogibli njihove.
Do not enter my people's gate in the day of their calamity; do not gloat over their affliction in the day of their disaster, do not loot their wealth in the day of their ruin.
14 Niti trebaše da staneš na rasputicu da ubijaš bježan njihovu, niti da izdaješ onijeh koji ostaše u dan nevolje.
Do not stand at the crossroads to cut down his fugitives, and do not deliver up his survivors in the day of distress.
15 Jer je dan Gospodnji blizu svijem narodima; kako si èinio, tako æe ti biti, plata æe ti se vratiti na glavu tvoju.
For the day of Yahweh is near upon all the nations. As you have done, it will be done to you; your deeds will return on your own head.
16 Jer kao što ste vi pili na svetoj gori mojoj, tako æe piti svi narodi vazda, piæe, i ždrijeæe, i biæe kao da ih nije bilo.
For as you have drunk on my holy mountain, so will all the nations drink continually. They will drink and swallow and it will be as though they had never existed.
17 A na gori æe Sionu biti spasenje, i biæe sveta, i dom æe Jakovljev naslijediti našljedstvo svoje.
But in Mount Zion there will be those that escape and it will be holy; and the house of Jacob shall possess their own possessions.
18 I dom æe Jakovljev biti oganj i dom Josifov plamen, a dom Isavov strnjika; i razgorjeæe se na njih, i spaliæe ih; i neæe biti ostatka domu Isavovu, jer Gospod reèe.
The house of Jacob will be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau will be stubble, and they will burn them, and consume them. There will be no survivors to the house of Esau, for Yahweh has spoken it.”
19 I naslijediæe jug, goru Isavovu, i ravnicu, Filisteje; i naslijediæe polje Jefremovo i polje Samarijsko i Venijaminovo i Galad;
Those from the Negev will possess the mount of Esau and those of the Shepelah will possess the land of the Philistines. They will possess the land of Ephraim and the land of Samaria; and Benjamin will possess Gilead.
20 I zarobljena vojska sinova Izrailjevijeh naslijediæe što je bilo Hananejsko do Sarepte; a roblje Jerusalimsko, što je u Sefaradu, naslijediæe južne gradove.
The exiles of this host of the people of Israel will possess the land of Canaan as far as Zarephath. The exiles of Jerusalem, who are in Sepharad, will possess the cities of the Negev.
21 I izbavitelji æe izaæi na goru Sion da sude gori Isavovoj, i carstvo æe biti Gospodnje.
Deliverers will go up to Mount Zion to rule over the hill country of Esau, and the kingdom will belong to Yahweh.
