< Isaiah 11 >

1 [Like] [MET] a [new] shoot [often] grows from the stump [of a tree], there will be a descendant of King David who will be a new king.
Isklijat će mladica iz panja Jišajeva, izdanak će izbit' iz njegova korijena.
2 The Spirit of Yahweh will always be with him. The Spirit will enable him to be wise and to understand [much about many things]. The Spirit will enable him to decide what is good to do, and will enable him to be very powerful. The Spirit will enable him to know Yahweh and to revere him.
Na njemu će duh Jahvin počivat', duh mudrosti i umnosti, duh savjeta i jakosti, duh znanja i straha Gospodnjeg.
3 He will be glad to obey Yahweh. He will not decide [whether someone is righteous or not only] by seeing what that person looks like, or by listening to [what others say about that person].
Prodahnut će ga strah Gospodnji: neće suditi po viđenju, presuđivati po čuvenju,
4 He will judge [the cases of] needy people fairly; and he will act justly toward poor people. He will punish evil people as a result of what he decides [MTY]; he will get rid of wicked people because of [MTY] [their behavior].
već po pravdi će sudit' ubogima i sud prav izricat' bijednima na zemlji. Šibom riječi svoje ošinut će silnika, a dahom iz usta ubit' bezbožnika.
5 He will always act righteously; his doing that will [accompany him like] [MET] a belt [around his waist]. He will always speak what is true; his doing that will [accompany him like] [MET] a sash [around his waist].
On će pravdom opasati bedra, a vjernošću bokove.
6 [When he becomes king], wolves and lambs will live together [peacefully]; leopards, [instead of killing] baby goats, will lie down with them. [Similarly], calves and lions will eat food together; and a young child will take care of them.
Vuk će prebivati s jagnjetom, ris ležati s kozlićem, tele i lavić zajedno će pasti, a djetešce njih će vodit'.
7 Cows and bears will eat [together]; bear cubs and calves will lie down together. Lions will [not eat other animals]; [instead], they will eat hay like cows do.
Krava i medvjedica zajedno će pasti, a mladunčad njihova skupa će ležati, lav će jesti slamu k'o govedo.
8 Babies will play [safely] near the holes where cobra snakes [live]; small children will [even] put their hands into nests of poisonous snakes, [and the snakes will not harm them].
Nad rupom gujinom igrat će se dojenče, sisanče će ruku zavlačiti u leglo zmijinje.
9 No creatures will harm or kill other creatures on [Zion Hill], my holy hill; and the earth will [be filled with people who] know Yahweh like [SIM] the seas are full of water.
Zlo se više neće činiti, neće se pustošiti na svoj svetoj gori mojoj: zemlja će se ispuniti spoznajom Jahvinom kao što se vodom pune mora.
10 At that time, a descendant of King David will [hold up] a flag to signal to the people of all people-groups [that they should gather around him]; they will come to him to get his advice, and the place where he lives will be glorious.
U dan onaj: Jišajev izdanak, dignut kao stijeg narodima, puci će željno tražiti. I prebivalište njegovo bit će slavno.
11 At that time, Yahweh will (reach out his hand/use his power) as he did long ago; he will enable those who had been (exiled from/forced to leave) Israel to return home, from Assyria, from northern Egypt, from southern Egypt, from Ethiopia, from Elam, from Babylonia, from Hamath, and from all the distant countries near the sea.
U dan onaj: Jahve će drugi put ruku pružiti da otkupi Ostatak svoga naroda, one što ostanu iz Asira i iz Egipta, iz Patrosa, Kuša i Elama, iz Šineara, Hamata i s morskih otoka.
12 Yahweh will raise his flag among [all] the people-groups, and he will gather together the people of Israel who had been exiled [long ago]. He will gather from very distant places [IDM] on the earth the people of Judah who [(had been scattered to/are living in) those places].
Podignut će stijeg narodima, sabrat će Izraelu prognanike i skupiti Judi raspršene sa sva četiri kraja zemlje.
13 [Then], the people of Israel and the people of Judah will not be jealous of each other [any longer], and they will no [longer] be enemies of each other.
Ljubomor će nestat' Efrajimov, bit će istrijebljeni dušmani Judini; Efrajim neće više zavidjeti Judi, a Juda neće biti neprijatelj Efrajimu.
14 Their [armies] will [join together to] attack the people of Philistia to the west. And together they will attack nations to the east; they will [defeat those nations and] take away all their valuable possessions. They will capture [the areas of] Edom and Moab, and the people of the Ammon people-group will be controlled/ruled by the people of Israel and Judah.
Filistejcima na zapadu za vrat će sjesti, zajedno će plijeniti sinove Istoka; ruku će svoju pružit' na Edom i Moab, bit će im pokorni sinovi Amonovi.
15 Yahweh will make a dry road through the sea near Egypt. And [it will be as though] he will wave his hand over the [Euphrates] River and send a strong wind to cause it to divide into seven streams, with the result that people will be able to walk across [those streams].
Jahve će isušit' zaljev mora egipatskog, zamahnut će rukom protiv Eufrata; snagom daha razbit će ga na sedam potoka da se u obući može prelaziti:
16 And because he will make a highway for his people who are living in Assyria, they will be able to return [to their own land], just like [long ago] he made a path for [the people of] Israel [so that they could go through the water] when they left Egypt.
i bit će cesta Ostatku njegova naroda, koji preživio bude iz Asira, kao što bijaše Izraelcima kad iziđoše iz zemlje egipatske.
