Isaiah 22
1 [I received] this message [from Yahweh] about Jerusalem, about the valley where [Yahweh showed me] this vision. Why is everyone foolishly running up to their [flat] rooftops?
Proroštvo o Dolini viđenja: Što ti je da uzlaziš sav na krovove,
2 Everyone in the city [seems to] be shouting. [There are a lot of] corpses [in the city], [but they] were not killed by [their enemies’] swords. They did not die in battles; [instead, they died from diseases and hunger].
grade pun vreve, grade bučni, grade razigrani? Pobijeni tvoji ne padoše od mača, nit' u boju poginuše mrtvi tvoji;
3 All the leaders of the city fled. [But then] they were captured because they did not have bows [and arrows to defend themselves]. Your [soldiers tried to] flee while the enemy [army] was still far away, but they also were captured.
glavari svi ti zajedno pobjegoše, u ropstvo padoše luka ne napevši. Zasužnjeni su svi tvoji knezovi, zalud umakoše daleko.
4 That is why I said, “Allow me to cry alone; do not try to comfort me [about my people being slaughtered].”
Zato velim: “Ostavite me, zaplakat ću gorko; nemojte me tješiti zbog uništenja naroda moga.”
5 The Commander of the armies of angels has [chosen] a time when there will be a great uproar, [soldiers] marching, and people being terrified in the valley [where I received this] vision. [It will be a time when our city] walls will be battered down and [the people’s] cries [for help] will be heard in the mountains.
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 The armies from Elam and Kir [in Media] will attack, driving chariots and carrying shields.
Elam tobolac uzima, Aram konja jaše, a Kir štit otkriva.
7 Our beautiful valleys will be filled with [our enemies’] chariots and the men who drive the chariots will stand outside [our city] gates.
Krasne doline tvoje pune su bojnih kola, konjanici stižu pred vrata.
8 The walls that protect [the cities in] Judah will fall down. You [people of Jerusalem] will run to get the weapons [that are stored in the building called] “the Hall of the Forest”.
Tako pada Judi zaštita. U onaj dan svrnuo si pogled na oružje u Šumskoj kući.
9 You will see that there are many breaks/holes in the walls of Jerusalem. You will store water in the lower pool [in the city].
Vidjeste da u gradu Davidovu ima mnogo pukotina. Sabraste vodu iz Donjega ribnjaka.
10 You will inspect the houses in Jerusalem, and [some of] them you will tear down to use the stones to repair the [city] wall.
Prebrojiste kuće jeruzalemske, porušiste kuće da zid učvrstite.
11 Between the walls [of the city] you will build a reservoir to [store] water from the old pool. But you will never request help from the one who made the city; you have never depended on Yahweh, who planned this city 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 The Commander of the armies of angels told you to weep and mourn; he told you to shave your heads and to wear rough sackcloth to show that you were sorry for the sins that you had committed.
Gospod, Jahve nad Vojskama, pozivaše vas u dan onaj da plačete i tugujete, da obrijete glave i pripašete kostrijet.
13 But instead of doing that, you were happy and celebrating; you slaughtered cattle and sheep, [in order to cook their] meat and eat it and drink wine. You said, “Let’s eat and drink [all that we want to], because [it is possible that] we will die tomorrow!”
A gle: radost i veselje, ubijaju goveda i kolju ovce; jedu meso i piju vino: “Jedimo i pijmo, jer sutra nam je mrijeti.”
14 [So] the Commander of the armies of angels revealed this to me: “I will never forgive my people for sinning like this!”
Ali Jahve nad Vojskama objavi mi: “Dok ne umrete, grijeh taj neće vam se oprostiti”, reče Jahve, Gospod nad Vojskama.
15 The Commander of the armies of angels said this [to me]: “Go to Shebna, the official who supervises the workers in the palace, and give this message to him:
Ovako govori Jahve, Gospod nad Vojskama: “Hajde, idi k onom dvorjaninu, k Šibni, nadstojniku dvora,
16 '[Who do you think you are?] Who gave you the authority to build a beautiful tomb where you will be buried, chiseling it out of the rocky cliff high above this valley?
koji kleše sebi grob na uzvisini i u stijeni sebi prebivalište usijeca: 'Što tu posjeduješ i koga tu imaš da sebi klešeš grobnicu?'
17 You [think that you are] [IRO] a great man, but Yahweh is about to hurl you away. [It will be as though] he will seize you,
Gle, Jahve će te baciti daleko udarcem jednim jedinim, snažno će te uhvatiti,
18 and roll/crumple you into a ball and throw you away into a large distant land. You will die [and be buried] there, and your beautiful chariots will stay there [in the hands of your enemies]. And [because of what happens to you], your master, [the king], will be [very] ashamed/disgraced.
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 Yahweh will force you to quit working in the palace; you will be demoted from your important position.
Lišit ću te tvoje službe, otjerat te sa tvog mjesta;
20 Then I will summon Hilkiah’s son Eliakim, who has served serve me [well], to replace you.
i pozvat ću svoga slugu Elijakima, sina Hilkijina.
21 I will allow him to wear your robe, and to fasten your sash around him, and I will give to him the authority that you had. He will be like [MET] a father to the people of Jerusalem and [all the other] towns in 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 I will give to him authority [MTY] over [what happens in] the palace where King David [lived]; when he decides something [MET], no one will be able to oppose it; when he refuses to do something, no one will be able to force him to do it.
Metnut ću mu na pleća ključ od kuće Davidove: kad otvori, nitko neće zatvoriti, kad zatvori, nitko neće otvoriti.
23 I will cause his family to be greatly respected, because I will put him firmly in his position [as supervisor of the workers in the palace], like [SIM] a nail that is firmly hammered into a wall.
Kao klin zabit ću ga na tvrdu mjestu; i postat će prijesto slave domu oca svojega.
24 Others will enable him to have much responsibility, with the result that all the members of his family, even the most insignificant ones, will be honored.'”
O njega će se vješati sva slava njegova doma očinskog, izdanci i potomstvo, sve malo posuđe, od zdjelica do ćupova.
25 [But] the Commander of the armies of angels also says, “[Shebna is like] [MET] a peg that is firmly fastened to the wall. But there will be a time when I will [remove him from his position]; he will lose his power/influence, and everything that he promoted [MET] will fail. [That will surely happen] because [I], Yahweh, have said it.”
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.
