< Isaiah 22 >

1 The burden of the valley of vision. What aileth thee now, that thou art wholly gone up to the housetops?
Proroštvo o Dolini viđenja: Što ti je da uzlaziš sav na krovove,
2 Thou that wast full of stir, a town of tumult, a joyous city: thy slain men are not slain with the sword, nor dead in battle.
grade pun vreve, grade bučni, grade razigrani? Pobijeni tvoji ne padoše od mača, nit' u boju poginuše mrtvi tvoji;
3 All thy rulers have fled together, they are taken prisoners without the bow: all that are found of thee are made prisoners together; they were fleeing far off.
glavari svi ti zajedno pobjegoše, u ropstvo padoše luka ne napevši. Zasužnjeni su svi tvoji knezovi, zalud umakoše daleko.
4 Therefore said I, Look away from me; let me weep bitterly: labour not to comfort me, because of the spoiling of the daughter of my people.
Zato velim: “Ostavite me, zaplakat ću gorko; nemojte me tješiti zbog uništenja naroda moga.”
5 For it is a day of trouble, and of treading down, and of perplexity, from the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, in the valley of vision; [a day of] breaking down the wall, and of crying to the mountain:
Jer ovo je dan pometnje i rasula od Jahve, Gospoda nad Vojskama. U Dolini viđenja zid se ruši, vapaj za pomoć diže se u goru.
6 — Elam beareth the quiver with chariots of men [and] horsemen; and Kir uncovereth the shield.
Elam tobolac uzima, Aram konja jaše, a Kir štit otkriva.
7 And it shall come to pass [that] thy choicest valleys shall be full of chariots, and the horsemen shall set themselves in array at the gate.
Krasne doline tvoje pune su bojnih kola, konjanici stižu pred vrata.
8 And he uncovereth the covering of Judah: and thou didst look in that day to the armour in the house of the forest;
Tako pada Judi zaštita. U onaj dan svrnuo si pogled na oružje u Šumskoj kući.
9 and ye have seen the breaches of the city of David, that they are many; and ye have gathered together the waters of the lower pool;
Vidjeste da u gradu Davidovu ima mnogo pukotina. Sabraste vodu iz Donjega ribnjaka.
10 and ye have numbered the houses of Jerusalem, and have broken down the houses to fortify the wall;
Prebrojiste kuće jeruzalemske, porušiste kuće da zid učvrstite.
11 and ye have made a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the old pool: but ye have not had regard unto the maker thereof, neither have ye looked unto him that fashioned it long ago.
Između dva zida načiniste spremište za vodu iz starog ribnjaka. Ali se ne obazreste na Tvorca, nit' vidjeste onog što davno sve smisli.
12 And in that day did the Lord Jehovah of hosts call to weeping, and to mourning, and to baldness, and to girding with sackcloth;
Gospod, Jahve nad Vojskama, pozivaše vas u dan onaj da plačete i tugujete, da obrijete glave i pripašete kostrijet.
13 and behold joy and rejoicing, slaying oxen, and killing sheep, eating flesh, and drinking wine: — Let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we die.
A gle: radost i veselje, ubijaju goveda i kolju ovce; jedu meso i piju vino: “Jedimo i pijmo, jer sutra nam je mrijeti.”
14 And it was revealed in mine ears by Jehovah of hosts: Assuredly this iniquity shall not be purged from you till ye die, saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts.
Ali Jahve nad Vojskama objavi mi: “Dok ne umrete, grijeh taj neće vam se oprostiti”, reče Jahve, Gospod nad Vojskama.
15 Thus saith the Lord Jehovah of hosts: Go, get thee in unto this steward, unto Shebna, who is over the house, [and say, ]
Ovako govori Jahve, Gospod nad Vojskama: “Hajde, idi k onom dvorjaninu, k Šibni, nadstojniku dvora,
16 What hast thou here? and whom hast thou here, that thou hast hewn thee out a sepulchre here, [as] he that heweth out his sepulchre on high, cutting out in the rock a habitation for himself?
koji kleše sebi grob na uzvisini i u stijeni sebi prebivalište usijeca: 'Što tu posjeduješ i koga tu imaš da sebi klešeš grobnicu?'
17 Behold, Jehovah will hurl thee with the force of a mighty man, and will cover thee entirely.
Gle, Jahve će te baciti daleko udarcem jednim jedinim, snažno će te uhvatiti,
18 Rolling thee up completely, he will roll thee as a ball into a wide country: there shalt thou die, and there shall be the chariots of thy glory, O shame of thy lord's house!
smotat će te u klupko, kao loptu te baciti po zemlji širokoj! Ondje ti ćeš umrijeti, s kolima što ti bijahu na slavu, ti, sramoto dvoru svoga gospodara!”
19 And I will drive thee from thine office, and from thy station will I pull thee down.
Lišit ću te tvoje službe, otjerat te sa tvog mjesta;
20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkijah;
i pozvat ću svoga slugu Elijakima, sina Hilkijina.
21 and I will clothe him with thy robe, and strengthen him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand; and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.
Obući ću mu tvoju haljinu, tvojim ću ga pojasom opasat', tvoju ću mu vlast predati u ruke te će biti otac žiteljima jeruzalemskim i kući Judinoj.
22 And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; and he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.
Metnut ću mu na pleća ključ od kuće Davidove: kad otvori, nitko neće zatvoriti, kad zatvori, nitko neće otvoriti.
23 And I will fasten him [as] a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a throne of glory to his father's house:
Kao klin zabit ću ga na tvrdu mjestu; i postat će prijesto slave domu oca svojega.
24 and they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the issue, all the small vessels, as well the vessels of cups as all the vessels of flagons.
O njega će se vješati sva slava njegova doma očinskog, izdanci i potomstvo, sve malo posuđe, od zdjelica do ćupova.
25 In that day, saith Jehovah of hosts, shall the nail that is fastened in a sure place be removed, and be cut down, and fall; and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off: for Jehovah hath spoken.
U onaj dan - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama - izvući će se klin zabijen na tvrdu mjestu, slomit će se i pasti. I sav teret što je visio na njemu razbit će se, jer je Jahve govorio.
