< Isaiah 8 >

1 Then Yahweh said to me, “Make a large signboard. And write clearly on it, ‘Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz’ [which means ‘quickly (plunder/take by force) and steal everything’].”
I řekl mi Hospodin: Vezmi sobě knihu velikou, a napiš na ní písmem lidským: K rychlé kořisti pospíchá loupežník.
2 [So] I requested Uriah the [Supreme] Priest and Jeberekiah’s son Zechariah, men who were both honest/trustworthy witnesses, to watch me as I was doing that.
I vzal jsem sobě za svědky věrné Uriáše kněze, a Zachariáše syna Jeberechiášova.
3 Then I had sex with [EUP] [my wife, who was] a prophetess, and she became pregnant and [then] gave birth to a son. Then Yahweh said to me, “Give him the name Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz (which means ‘suddenly attacked, quickly conquered’),
V tom přistoupil jsem k prorokyni, kteráž počala, a porodila syna. I řekl mi Hospodin: Dej mu jméno: K rychlé kořisti pospíchá loupežník.
4 because before he is old enough to say ‘papa’ or ‘mama’, the King of Assyria will [come with his army and] quickly take away all the valuable things in Damascus and in Samaria.”
Nebo prvé než bude uměti dítě to volati: Otče můj, matko má, odejme zboží Damašské a loupeže Samařské lid krále Assyrského.
5 Yahweh spoke to me again and said, “[Tell the people of Judah, ]
I to ještě mluvil Hospodin ke mně, řka:
6 ‘[I have taken good care of] you people, but you have rejected that, [thinking that] my help was very little, like [MET] the little canal through which water flows from the Gihon Spring into Jerusalem. Instead, you have been happy [to request help from] King Rezin and King Pekah.
Poněvadž pohrdl lid ten vodami Siloe tiše tekoucími, raduje se z Rezina a syna Romeliášova,
7 Therefore, I will cause the people of Judah to be attacked by [the powerful army of] the King of Assyria, which will be [like] a great flood from the [Euphrates] River. Their soldiers will [be everywhere in your country, like] a river that overflows all its banks.
Protož aj, Pán uvede na ně vody, řeky násilné a mnohé, totiž krále Assyrského, a všecku slávu jeho, tak že vystoupí ze všech toků svých, a půjde nad všecky břehy své.
8 Those soldiers will go all over Judah— [like a river whose water] [MET] rises as high as a person’s neck. Their army will spread over the land [quickly], like an eagle, and they will cover your entire land! But I will be with you!’”
Půjde i přes Judu, rozleje se a rozejde, až k hrdlu dosáhne, a roztažená křídla jeho naplní širokost země tvé, ó Immanueli.
9 Listen, all you [people in] distant countries! [You can] prepare to attack Judah. [You can] prepare [for battle, and shout your] war-cries, but your [armies will] be crushed/shattered!
Puntujtež se lidé, však potříni budete, (nýbrž pozorujte všickni v daleké zemi), přepašte se, však potříni budete, přepašte se, však potříni budete.
10 [You can] prepare for what you will do [to attack Judah], but what you plan to do will not happen! You will not succeed, because God is with us!
Vejděte v radu, a zrušena bude, mluvte slovo, a neostojíť; nebo s námi jest Bůh silný.
11 Yahweh strongly warned me [MTY] not to act like the [other] people in Judah did. He said to me,
Tak zajisté mluvil Hospodin ke mně, ujav mne za ruku, a dav mi výstrahu, abych nechodil cestou lidu tohoto, řka:
12 “Do not say that everything that people do is conspiring/rebelling [against the government], like [other] people say, and do not (be afraid of/worry about) the things that other people are afraid of.
Neříkejte: Spuntování, když lid ten praví: Spuntování; aniž se jako oni strachujte, nerci-li, abyste se děsiti měli.
13 [I, ] the Commander of the armies of angels, am the one you should consider to be holy. And I am the one you should fear, the one you should revere.
Hospodina zástupů samého posvěcujte; on budiž bázeň vaše i strach váš.
14 I will protect you(sg). [But as for] the [other] people [MTY] in Israel and Judah, I will be [like] [MET] a stone that causes people to stumble, a rock that causes them to fall down. [And as for] the people of Jerusalem, I will be [like] [MET] a trap or a snare [DOU].
A budeť vám i svatyní, kamenem pak urážky a skalou pádu oběma domům Izraelským, osídlem a léčkou i obyvatelům Jeruzalémským.
15 Many [people] will stumble and fall down and never get up again. They will experience great troubles; they will be captured [by their enemies].”
I urazí se o to mnozí, a padnou, a potříni budou, aneb zapletouce se, popadeni budou.
16 [So, I say to you who are my disciples], seal up this scroll on which I have written the messages that God has given to me, and give his instructions to [others] who have accompanied me.
Zavaž osvědčení, zapečeť zákon mezi učedlníky mými.
17 I will wait to see what Yahweh [will do]. He has rejected the descendants [MTY] of Jacob, but I will confidently expect him to help me.
Pročež očekávati budu na Hospodina, kterýž skryl tvář svou od domu Jákobova; na něj, pravím, čekati budu.
18 I and the children that Yahweh has given to me are [like] signs to warn [the people of] Israel; we are warnings from the Commander of the armies of angels the one who lives [in his temple] on Zion Hill [in Jerusalem].
Aj, já a dítky, kteréž mi dal Hospodin, na znamení a zázraky v Izraeli od Hospodina zástupů, kterýž přebývá na hoře Sion.
19 Some people may urge you(pl) to (consult/go and talk with) those who talk with the spirits of dead people or with those who say that they receive messages from those spirits. They whisper and mutter [about what we should do in the future]. But God is [RHQ] the one whom we should ask to guide us! It is ridiculous [RHQ] for people who are alive to request spirits of dead people to tell us [what we should do]!
Jestliže by vám pak řekli: Dotazujte se na hadačích a věšťcích, kteříž šepcí a šveholí, rcete: Nemá-liž se lid na Bohu svém dotazovati? K mrtvým-liž místo živých má se utíkati?
20 Pay attention to God’s instructions and teaching! If people do not say things that agree with what God teaches us, [what they say is worthless]. [It is as though] those people are in darkness.
K zákonu a svědectví! Pakli nechtí, nechať mluví vedlé slova toho, v němž není žádné záře,
21 They will wander through the land, worried/discouraged and hungry. And when they become [very] hungry, they will become very angry. They will look up [toward heaven] and curse God and [will also] curse their king.
Až by každý toulati se musil, zbědovaný jsa a hladovitý. I stane se, že se bude, hladovitý jsa, sám v sobě zlobiti, a zlořečiti králi svému a Bohu svému, buď že zhůru pohledí,
22 They will look around the land and see only trouble/distress and darkness and things that cause them to despair. And [then] they will be thrown into the very black darkness [of hell]. (questioned)
Buď že na zemi popatří, a aj, všudy ssoužení a tma, mrákota, bída i nátisk v temnostech.
