Isaiah 14
1 For Yahweh will have compassion on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land. The foreigner will join himself with them, and they will unite with the house of Jacob.
Kajti Gospod bo imel usmiljenje do Jakoba in bo še izbral Izrael in jih postavil v njihovo lastno deželo, in tujci bodo združeni z njimi in se bodo trdno pridružili Jakobovi hiši.
2 The peoples will take them, and bring them to their place. The house of Israel will possess them in Yahweh’s land for servants and for handmaids. They will take as captives those whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors.
Ljudstvo jih bo vzelo in jih privedlo na njihov kraj. Izraelova hiša jih bo vzela v last v Gospodovi deželi za služabnice in pomočnice. Odvedli jih bodo ujete tisti, katerih ujetniki so bili in vladali bodo nad svojimi zatiralci.
3 It will happen in the day that Yahweh will give you rest from your sorrow, from your trouble, and from the hard service in which you were made to serve,
Na ta dan se bo zgodilo, ko ti bo Gospod dal počitek pred tvojo bridkostjo, pred tvojim strahom in pred trdim suženjstvom, s čimer si bil primoran, da služiš,
4 that you will take up this parable against the king of Babylon, and say, “How the oppressor has ceased! The golden city has ceased!”
da boš vzel ta pregovor zoper babilonskega kralja in rekel: »Kako je zatiralec končal! Zlato mesto je končalo!
5 Yahweh has broken the staff of the wicked, the scepter of the rulers,
Gospod je zlomil palico zlobnih in žezlo vladarjev.
6 who struck the peoples in wrath with a continual stroke, who ruled the nations in anger, with a persecution that no one restrained.
Tisti, ki je v besu udaril ljudstvo z nenehnim udarcem, tisti, ki je narodom vladal v jezi, je preganjan in nihče ne zadržuje.
7 The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet. They break out in song.
Celotna zemlja je pri počitku in mirna. Oni izbruhnejo v petje.
8 Yes, the cypress trees rejoice with you, with the cedars of Lebanon, saying, “Since you are humbled, no lumberjack has come up against us.”
Da, ciprese se razveseljujejo ob tebi in libanonske cedre, rekoč: ›Odkar si položen dol, noben sekalec ni prišel zoper nas.‹
9 Sheol from beneath has moved for you to meet you at your coming. It stirs up the departed spirits for you, even all the rulers of the earth. It has raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations. (Sheol h7585)
Pekel od spodaj vztrepetava zaradi tebe, da te sreča ob tvojem prihodu. Zaradi tebe razvnema mrtve, celó vse zemeljske vodje, iz njihovih prestolov je dvignil vse kralje narodov. (Sheol h7585)
10 They all will answer and ask you, “Have you also become as weak as we are? Have you become like us?”
Vsi ti bodo govorili in ti rekli: ›Si tudi ti postal slaboten kakor mi? Si postal podoben nam?‹
11 Your pomp is brought down to Sheol, with the sound of your stringed instruments. Maggots are spread out under you, and worms cover you. (Sheol h7585)
Tvoj pomp je priveden dol h grobu in zvok tvojih lir. Ličinka se razteguje pod teboj in ličinke te pokrivajo. (Sheol h7585)
12 How you have fallen from heaven, shining one, son of the dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, who laid the nations low!
Kako si padel z neba, oh Lucifer, sin jutra! Kako si posekan na tla, ki si narode slabil!
13 You said in your heart, “I will ascend into heaven! I will exalt my throne above the stars of God! I will sit on the mountain of assembly, in the far north!
Ker si rekel v svojem srcu: ›Vzpel se bom v nebesa, svoj prestol bom povzdignil nad Božje zvezde. Tudi na gori skupnosti bom sedel, na obronkih severa,
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds! I will make myself like the Most High!”
nad višine oblakov se bom dvignil, podoben bom Najvišjemu.‹
Vendar boš priveden dol v pekel, na obronke jame. (Sheol h7585)
16 Those who see you will stare at you. They will ponder you, saying, “Is this the man who made the earth to tremble, who shook kingdoms,
Tisti, ki te vidijo, te bodo natančno ogledovali in preudarjali, rekoč: ›Mar je to mož, ki je počel, da je zemlja trepetala, ki je pretresal kraljestva,
17 who made the world like a wilderness, and overthrew its cities, who didn’t release his prisoners to their home?”
ki je naredil zemeljski [krog] kakor divjino in uničil njegova mesta, ki ni odprl hiše svojih ujetnikov?‹
18 All the kings of the nations sleep in glory, everyone in his own house.
Vsi kralji narodov, celó vsi izmed njih, ležijo v slavi, vsak v svoji lastni hiši.
19 But you are cast away from your tomb like an abominable branch, clothed with the slain who are thrust through with the sword, who go down to the stones of the pit; like a dead body trodden under foot.
Ti pa si izvržen iz svojega groba, kakor gnusna mladika in kakor oblačilo tistih, ki so umorjeni, prebodeni z mečem, ki gredo dol k jamskim kamnom, kakor truplo, pomendrano pod stopali.
20 You will not join them in burial, because you have destroyed your land. You have killed your people. The offspring of evildoers will not be named forever.
Ne boš pridružen z njimi pri pokopu, ker si uničil svojo deželo in umoril svoje ljudstvo. Seme hudodelcev nikoli ne bo ugledno.
21 Prepare for slaughter of his children because of the iniquity of their fathers, that they not rise up and possess the earth, and fill the surface of the world with cities.
Pripravite pokol za njegove otroke zaradi krivičnosti njihovih očetov, da ne vstanejo niti ne vzamejo v last dežele niti ne napolnijo obličja zemeljskega [kroga] z mesti.
22 “I will rise up against them,” says Yahweh of Armies, “and cut off from Babylon name and remnant, and son and son’s son,” says Yahweh.
Kajti dvignil se bom proti njim, ‹ govori Gospod nad bojevniki ›in iztrebil iz Babilona ime in ostanek, sina in nečaka, ‹ govori Gospod.
23 “I will also make it a possession for the porcupine, and pools of water. I will sweep it with the broom of destruction,” says Yahweh of Armies.
›Prav tako ga bom naredil posest za bobnarico in vodne tolmune in pometel ga bom z metlo uničenja, ‹ govori Gospod nad bojevniki.
24 Yahweh of Armies has sworn, saying, “Surely, as I have thought, so shall it happen; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand:
Gospod nad bojevniki je prisegel, rekoč: ›Zagotovo, kakor sem si zamislil, tako se bo zgodilo in kakor sem se namenil, tako bo ostalo,
25 that I will break the Assyrian in my land, and tread him under foot on my mountains. Then his yoke will leave them, and his burden leave their shoulders.
da bom v svoji deželi zlomil Asirca in na svojih gorah ga bom pomendral pod stopalom. Potem bo njegov jarem odšel od njih in njegovo breme bo odšlo iz njihovih ramen.‹«
26 This is the plan that is determined for the whole earth. This is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations.
To je namen, ki je namenjen nad celotno zemljo, in to je roka, ki je iztegnjena nad vsemi narodi.
27 For Yahweh of Armies has planned, and who can stop it? His hand is stretched out, and who can turn it back?”
Kajti Gospod nad bojevniki se je namenil in kdo bo to razveljavil? Njegova roka je iztegnjena in kdo jo bo zavrnil?
28 This burden was in the year that King Ahaz died.
To breme je bilo v letu, ko je kralj Aház umrl.
29 Don’t rejoice, O Philistia, all of you, because the rod that struck you is broken; for out of the serpent’s root an adder will emerge, and his fruit will be a fiery flying serpent.
Ne razveseli se ti, celotna Filisteja, ker je palica tistega, ki te je udaril, zlomljena, kajti iz kačje korenine bo prišla strupena kača in njen sad bo ognjena leteča kača.
30 The firstborn of the poor will eat, and the needy will lie down in safety; and I will kill your root with famine, and your remnant will be killed.
Prvorojenec revnega bo nahranjen in pomoči potreben se bo ulegel v varnosti in z lakoto bom ubil tvojo korenino, on pa bo pokončal tvoj preostanek.
31 Howl, gate! Cry, city! You are melted away, Philistia, all of you; for smoke comes out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks.
Tulite, oh velika vrata, jokaj, oh mesto, ti, celotna Palestina si raztopljena, kajti iz severa bo prišel dim in nihče ne bo sam v svojih določenih časih.
32 What will they answer the messengers of the nation? That Yahweh has founded Zion, and in her the afflicted of his people will take refuge.
Kaj bo nekdo potem odgovoril poslancem naroda? Da je Gospod ustanovil Sion in revni izmed njegovega ljudstva bodo zaupali vanj.
