Izaija 14
1 Kajti Gospod bo imel usmiljenje do Jakoba in bo še izbral Izrael in jih postavil v njihovo lastno deželo, in tujci bodo združeni z njimi in se bodo trdno pridružili Jakobovi hiši.
Her time is drawing near, and her days will not be prolonged. For the Lord will take pity on Jacob, and he will still choose from Israel, and he will cause them to rest upon their own soil. And the new arrival will be joined to them, and he will adhere to the house of Jacob.
2 Ljudstvo jih bo vzelo in jih privedlo na njihov kraj. Izraelova hiša jih bo vzela v last v Gospodovi deželi za služabnice in pomočnice. Odvedli jih bodo ujete tisti, katerih ujetniki so bili in vladali bodo nad svojimi zatiralci.
And the people will take them, and lead them to their place. And the house of Israel will possess them, in the land of the Lord, as men and women servants. And they will take captive those who had taken them captive. And they will subjugate their oppressors.
3 Na ta dan se bo zgodilo, ko ti bo Gospod dal počitek pred tvojo bridkostjo, pred tvojim strahom in pred trdim suženjstvom, s čimer si bil primoran, da služiš,
And this shall be in that day: when God will have given you rest from your labor, and from your oppression, and from the difficult servitude under which you served before,
4 da boš vzel ta pregovor zoper babilonskega kralja in rekel: »Kako je zatiralec končal! Zlato mesto je končalo!
you will accept this parable against the king of Babylon, and you will say: “How is it that the oppressor has ceased, along with his tribute?
5 Gospod je zlomil palico zlobnih in žezlo vladarjev.
The Lord has crushed the staff of the impious, the scepter of despots,
6 Tisti, ki je v besu udaril ljudstvo z nenehnim udarcem, tisti, ki je narodom vladal v jezi, je preganjan in nihče ne zadržuje.
which struck the people in wrath with an incurable wound, which subjugated the nations in fury, which persecuted with cruelty.
7 Celotna zemlja je pri počitku in mirna. Oni izbruhnejo v petje.
All the earth has become quiet and still; it has been gladdened and has rejoiced.
8 Da, ciprese se razveseljujejo ob tebi in libanonske cedre, rekoč: ›Odkar si položen dol, noben sekalec ni prišel zoper nas.‹
The evergreens, too, have rejoiced over you, and the cedars of Lebanon, saying: ‘Since you have slept, no one has ascended who would cut us down.’
9 Pekel od spodaj vztrepetava zaradi tebe, da te sreča ob tvojem prihodu. Zaradi tebe razvnema mrtve, celó vse zemeljske vodje, iz njihovih prestolov je dvignil vse kralje narodov. (Sheol h7585)
Hell below was stirred up to meet you at your advent; it has awakened the giants for you. All the leaders of the earth have risen from their thrones, all the leaders among the nations.” (Sheol h7585)
10 Vsi ti bodo govorili in ti rekli: ›Si tudi ti postal slaboten kakor mi? Si postal podoben nam?‹
Everyone will respond and will say to you: “Now you are wounded, just as we were; you have become like us.
11 Tvoj pomp je priveden dol h grobu in zvok tvojih lir. Ličinka se razteguje pod teboj in ličinke te pokrivajo. (Sheol h7585)
Your arrogance has been dragged down to Hell. Your body has fallen dead. The moths will be strewn beneath you, and the worms will be your covering. (Sheol h7585)
12 Kako si padel z neba, oh Lucifer, sin jutra! Kako si posekan na tla, ki si narode slabil!
How is it that you have fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, who used to rise like the sun? How is it that you have fallen to the earth, you who wounded the peoples?
13 Ker si rekel v svojem srcu: ›Vzpel se bom v nebesa, svoj prestol bom povzdignil nad Božje zvezde. Tudi na gori skupnosti bom sedel, na obronkih severa,
And you said in your heart: ‘I will climb up to heaven. I will exalt my throne above the stars of God. I will be enthroned upon the mountain of the covenant, on the northern parts.
14 nad višine oblakov se bom dvignil, podoben bom Najvišjemu.‹
I will ascend above the tops of the clouds. I will be like the Most High.’
Yet truly, you shall be dragged down to Hell, into the depths of the pit. (Sheol h7585)
16 Tisti, ki te vidijo, te bodo natančno ogledovali in preudarjali, rekoč: ›Mar je to mož, ki je počel, da je zemlja trepetala, ki je pretresal kraljestva,
Those who see you, will lean toward you, and will gaze upon you, saying: ‘Could this be the man who disturbed the earth, who shook kingdoms,
17 ki je naredil zemeljski [krog] kakor divjino in uničil njegova mesta, ki ni odprl hiše svojih ujetnikov?‹
who made the world into a desert and destroyed its cities, who would not even open a prison for his prisoners?’”
18 Vsi kralji narodov, celó vsi izmed njih, ležijo v slavi, vsak v svoji lastni hiši.
All the kings of the nations throughout the whole world have slept in glory, each man in his own house.
19 Ti pa si izvržen iz svojega groba, kakor gnusna mladika in kakor oblačilo tistih, ki so umorjeni, prebodeni z mečem, ki gredo dol k jamskim kamnom, kakor truplo, pomendrano pod stopali.
But you have been rejected from your grave, like a useless polluted plant, and you have been bound up with those who were slain by the sword, and who descended to the bottom of the pit, like a rotting carcass.
20 Ne boš pridružen z njimi pri pokopu, ker si uničil svojo deželo in umoril svoje ljudstvo. Seme hudodelcev nikoli ne bo ugledno.
You will not be associated with them, even in the grave. For you have destroyed your own land; you have slain your own people. The offspring of the wicked ones will not be called upon for eternity.
21 Pripravite pokol za njegove otroke zaradi krivičnosti njihovih očetov, da ne vstanejo niti ne vzamejo v last dežele niti ne napolnijo obličja zemeljskega [kroga] z mesti.
Prepare his sons for the slaughter, according to the iniquity of their fathers. They will not rise up, nor inherit the earth, nor fill the face of the world with cities.
22 Kajti dvignil se bom proti njim, ‹ govori Gospod nad bojevniki ›in iztrebil iz Babilona ime in ostanek, sina in nečaka, ‹ govori Gospod.
But I will rise up against them, says the Lord of hosts. And I will perish the name of Babylon and its remnants: both the plant and its progeny, says the Lord.
23 ›Prav tako ga bom naredil posest za bobnarico in vodne tolmune in pometel ga bom z metlo uničenja, ‹ govori Gospod nad bojevniki.
And I will appoint it as a possession for the hedgehog, with swamps of water. And I will sweep it out and wear it away with a brush, says the Lord of hosts.
24 Gospod nad bojevniki je prisegel, rekoč: ›Zagotovo, kakor sem si zamislil, tako se bo zgodilo in kakor sem se namenil, tako bo ostalo,
The Lord of hosts has sworn, saying: Surely, just as I have considered it, so shall it be, and in the same manner as I have drawn it through my mind,
25 da bom v svoji deželi zlomil Asirca in na svojih gorah ga bom pomendral pod stopalom. Potem bo njegov jarem odšel od njih in njegovo breme bo odšlo iz njihovih ramen.‹«
so shall it occur. So shall I crush the Assyrian in my land, and I will trample him upon my mountains, and his yoke will be taken away from them, and his burden will be removed from their shoulder.
26 To je namen, ki je namenjen nad celotno zemljo, in to je roka, ki je iztegnjena nad vsemi narodi.
This is the plan that I have decided, concerning the entire earth, and this is the hand which is extended over all the nations.
27 Kajti Gospod nad bojevniki se je namenil in kdo bo to razveljavil? Njegova roka je iztegnjena in kdo jo bo zavrnil?
For the Lord of hosts has decreed it, and who is able to weaken it? And his hand is extended, so who can avert it?
28 To breme je bilo v letu, ko je kralj Aház umrl.
In the year in which king Ahaz died, this burden was given:
29 Ne razveseli se ti, celotna Filisteja, ker je palica tistega, ki te je udaril, zlomljena, kajti iz kačje korenine bo prišla strupena kača in njen sad bo ognjena leteča kača.
You should not rejoice, all you of Philistia, that the rod of him who struck you has been crushed. For from the root of the serpent will go forth a king snake, and his offspring will engulf that which flies.
30 Prvorojenec revnega bo nahranjen in pomoči potreben se bo ulegel v varnosti in z lakoto bom ubil tvojo korenino, on pa bo pokončal tvoj preostanek.
And the firstborn of the poor will be pastured, and the poor will rest in faithfulness. And I will cause your root to pass away by famine, and I will put to death your remnant.
31 Tulite, oh velika vrata, jokaj, oh mesto, ti, celotna Palestina si raztopljena, kajti iz severa bo prišel dim in nihče ne bo sam v svojih določenih časih.
Wail, O gate! Cry out, O city! All of Philistia has been prostrated. For a smoke will arrive from the north, and there is no one who will escape his army.
32 Kaj bo nekdo potem odgovoril poslancem naroda? Da je Gospod ustanovil Sion in revni izmed njegovega ljudstva bodo zaupali vanj.
And what will be the response to this news among the nations? It will be that the Lord has established Zion, and that the poor of his people will hope in him.
