Isaiah 31
1 Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and rely on horses, and trust in chariots, because they are many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look not to the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the LORD!
Teško onima koji idu u Misir za pomoæ, koji se oslanjaju na konje, i uzdaju se u kola što ih je mnogo, i u konjike što ih je veliko mnoštvo, a ne gledaju na sveca Izrailjeva i ne traže Gospoda.
2 Yet he also is wise, and will bring evil, and will not call back his words: but will arise against the house of the evildoers, and against the help of them that work iniquity.
Ali je i on mudar, i navuæi æe zlo, i neæe poreæi svoje rijeèi, nego æe ustati na dom nevaljalijeh ljudi i na one koji pomažu onima koji èine bezakonje.
3 Now the Egyptians are men, and not God; and their horses flesh, and not spirit. When the LORD shall stretch out his hand, both he that helpeth shall fall, and he that is helped shall fall down, and they all shall fail together.
A Misirci su ljudi a ne Bog, i konji su njihovi tijelo a ne duh; i zato æe Gospod mahnuti rukom svojom, te æe pasti pomagaè, pašæe i onaj kome pomaže, i svi æe zajedno poginuti.
4 For thus hath the LORD spoken to me, As the lion and the young lion roaring on his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, he will not be afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them: so shall the LORD of hosts come down to fight for mount Zion, and for its hill.
Jer ovako mi reèe Gospod: kao što lav i laviæ rièe nad lovom svojim, i ako se i svièe na nj mnoštvo pastira, on se ne plaši od vike njihove niti se pokorava na buku njihovu, tako æe Gospod nad vojskama siæi da vojuje za goru Sionsku i za hum njezin.
5 As birds flying, so will the LORD of hosts defend Jerusalem; defending also he will deliver it; and passing over he will preserve it.
Kao ptice krilima Gospod æe nad vojskama zaklanjati Jerusalim, i zaklanjajuæi izbaviæe, i oblazeæi saèuvaæe.
6 Turn ye to him from whom the children of Israel have deeply revolted.
Vratite se k njemu, od kojega se sasvijem odvrgoste, sinovi Izrailjevi!
7 For in that day every man shall cast away his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which your own hands have made to you for a sin.
Jer æe u onaj dan svaki odbaciti idole svoje srebrne, i zlatne svoje idole, koje vam ruke vaše naèiniše na grijeh.
8 Then shall the Assyrian fall with the sword, not of a mighty man; and the sword, not of a mean man, shall devour him: but he shall flee from the sword, and his young men shall become forced labourers.
I Asirac æe pasti od maèa ne èovjeèijega, i maè ne èovjeèji poješæe ga, i bježaæe ispred maèa, i mladiæi æe njegovi plaæati danak.
9 And he shall pass over to his strong hold for fear, and his princes shall be afraid of the ensign, saith the LORD, whose fire is in Zion, and his furnace in Jerusalem.
I stijena æe njegova proæi od straha, i knezovi æe se njegovi prepasti od zastave, veli Gospod, èiji je oganj na Sionu i peæ u Jerusalimu.
