< Isaiah 18 >

1 Woe to the land shadowing with wings, which is beyond the rivers of Cush:
Teško zemlji koja sjen èini krilima s one strane rijeka Etiopskih;
2 That sendeth ambassadors by the sea, even in vessels of bulrushes upon the waters, saying, Go, ye swift messengers, to a nation scattered and stripped, to a people terrible from their beginning to this time; a nation powerful and oppressive, whose land the rivers have spoiled!
Koja šalje poslanike preko mora, u laðama od site po vodama, govoreæi: idite, brzi glasnici, k narodu rasijanu i oplijenjenu, k narodu strašnu otkako je dosad, k narodu razmjerenu i pogaženu, kojemu zemlju raznose rijeke.
3 All ye inhabitants of the world, and dwellers on the earth, see ye, when he lifteth up an ensign on the mountains; and when he bloweth a trumpet, hear ye.
Svi koji živite na svijetu i stanujete na zemlji, kad se digne zastava na gorama, gledajte, i kad zatrubi truba, slušajte.
4 For so the LORD said to me, I will take my rest, and I will consider in my dwelling place like a clear heat upon herbs, and like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.
Jer ovako mi reèe Gospod: umiriæu se i gledaæu iz stana svojega, kao vruæina koja suši poslije dažda i kao rosan oblak o vruæini žetvenoj.
5 For before the harvest, when the bud is perfect, and the sour grape is ripening in the flower, he shall both cut off the sprigs with pruning hooks, and take away and cut down the branches.
Jer prije berbe, kad napupe pupci i od cvijeta postane grozd i stane zreti, okresaæe odvode kosijerom, i uzeæe lozu i otsjeæi.
6 They shall be left together to the fowls of the mountains, and to the beasts of the earth: and the fowls shall summer upon them, and all the beasts of the earth shall winter upon them.
Sve æe se ostaviti pticama gorskim i zvijerima zemaljskim; i ptice æe ljetovati na njima, a svakojake zvijeri zemaljske zimovaæe.
7 In that time shall the present be brought to the LORD of hosts of a people scattered and stripped, and from a people terrible from their beginning to this time; a nation powerful and oppressive, whose land the rivers have spoiled, to the place of the name of the LORD of hosts, the mount Zion.
Tada æe se donijeti dar Gospodu nad vojskama od naroda rasijanoga i oplijenjenoga, od naroda strašnoga otkako je dosad, od naroda razmjerenoga i pogaženoga, kojemu zemlju raznose rijeke, k mjestu imena Gospoda nad vojskama, ka gori Sionskoj.
