Isaiah 59
1 Behold, the LORD’S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:
Gle, nije okraèala ruka Gospodnja da ne može spasti, niti je otežalo uho njegovo da ne može èuti.
2 but your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.
Nego bezakonja vaša rastaviše vas s Bogom vašim, i grijesi vaši zakloniše lice njegovo od vas, da ne èuje.
3 For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue muttereth wickedness.
Jer su ruke vaše oskvrnjene krvlju i prsti vaši bezakonjem; usne vaše govore laž i jezik vaš izrièe opaèinu.
4 None sueth in righteousness, and none pleadeth in truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.
Nema nikoga da vièe za pravdu, niti ima koga da se pre za istinu; uzdaju se u ništavilo, i govore laž; zaèinju nevolju, i raðaju muku.
5 They hatch basilisks’ eggs, and weave the spider’s web: he that eateth of their eggs dieth, and that which is crushed breaketh out into a viper.
Nose jaja aspidina i tkaju pauèinu; ko pojede jaje njihovo umre, i ako koje razbije, ižljeze guja.
6 Their webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works: their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands.
Platno njihovo nije za haljine, niti æe se oni odjesti svojim poslom; posao je njihov bezakonje i u rukama je njihovijem nasilje.
7 Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; desolation ard destruction are in their paths.
Noge im trèe na zlo i brze su na proljevanje krvi prave; misli su njihove bezakonje; na putovima je njihovijem pustoš i rasap.
8 The way of peace they know not; and there is no judgment in their goings: they have made them crooked paths; whosoever goeth therein doth not know peace.
Puta mirnoga ne znaju, i na putovima njihovijem nema pravde; naèinili su sebi krive staze; ko god ide po njima, ne zna za mir.
9 Therefore is judgment far from us, neither doth righteousness overtake us: we look for light, but behold darkness; for brightness, but we walk in obscurity.
Zato je sud daleko od nas, i pravda ne dolazi do nas; èekamo vidjelo, a ono, eto mrak; svjetlost, a ono hodimo po tami.
10 We grope for the wall like the blind, yea, we grope as they that have no eyes: we stumble at noonday as in the twilight; among them that are lusty we are as dead men.
Pipamo kao slijepci zid, kao oni koji nemaju oèiju pipamo; spotièemo se u podne kao u sumraèje; u obilju smo kao mrtvi.
11 We roar all like bears, and mourn sore like doves: we look for judgment, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far off from us.
Rièemo svikoliki kao medvjedi, i jednako uèemo kao golubice; èekamo sud, a njega nema, spasenje, a ono je daleko od nas.
12 For our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our sins testify against us: for our transgressions are with us, and as for our iniquities, we know them:
Jer se prijestupi naši umnožiše pred tobom i grijesi naši svjedoèe na nas; jer su prijestupi naši kod nas i bezakonja svoja znamo,
13 in transgressing and denying the LORD, and turning away from following our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.
Da nevjeru uèinismo i slagasmo Gospodu, i otstupismo od Boga svojega, govorismo o nasilju i odmetu, da sastavljasmo i iznosismo iz srca rijeèi lažne.
14 And judgment is turned away backward, and righteousness standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and uprightness cannot enter.
Zato sud otstupi natrag, i pravda stoji daleko; jer istina pade na ulici i pravda ne može da proðe.
15 Yea, truth is lacking; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and the LORD saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment.
I istine je nestalo, i ko se uklanja oda zla, postaje plijen. To vidje Gospod, i ne bi mu milo što nema suda.
16 And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his own arm brought salvation unto him; and his righteousness, it upheld him.
I vidje gdje nema èovjeka, i zaèudi se što nema posrednika; zato uèini mu spasenje mišica njegova, i pravda njegova poduprije ga.
17 And he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke.
Jer se obuèe u pravdu kao u oklop, i šljem spasenja metnu na glavu; odjede se osvetom kao odijelom, i ogrte se revnošæu kao plaštem.
18 According to their deeds, accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies; to the islands he will repay recompence.
Po djelima, po djelima da vrati gnjev protivnicima svojim, platu neprijateljima svojim, ostrvima da plati.
19 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun: for he shall come as a rushing stream, which the breath of the LORD driveth.
I bojaæe se imena Gospodnjega sa zapada, i slave njegove s istoka sunèanoga; jer æe neprijatelj navaliti kao rijeka, a duh æe Gospodnji podignuti zastavu suprot njemu.
20 And a redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD.
I doæi æe izbavitelj u Sion i k onima od Jakova koji se obraæaju od grijeha, veli Gospod.
21 And as for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the LORD: my spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed’s seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and for ever.
A ovo æe biti zavjet moj s njima, veli Gospod: duh moj, koji je u tebi, i rijeèi moje, koje metnuh u usta tvoja, neæe otiæi od usta tvojih ni od usta sjemena tvojega, ni od usta sjemena sjemena tvojega, veli Gospod, otsele i dovijeka.
