Isaiah 51
1 “Listen to me, you who follow after righteousness, you who seek the LORD. Look to the rock you were cut from, and to the quarry you were dug from.
Poslušajte me koji idete za pravdom, koji tražite Gospoda; pogledajte stijenu iz koje ste isjeèeni, i duboku jamu iz koje ste iskopani;
2 Look to Abraham your father, and to Sarah who bore you; for when he was but one I called him, I blessed him, and made him many.
Pogledajte Avrama, oca svojega, i Saru, koja vas je rodila, kako ga inokosna pozvah i blagoslovih ga i umnožih ga.
3 For the LORD has comforted Zion. He has comforted all her waste places, and has made her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD. Joy and gladness will be found in them, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
Jer æe Gospod utješiti Sion, utješiæe sve razvaline njegove, i pustinju njegovu uèiniæe da bude kao Edem i pustoš njegova kao vrt Gospodnji, radost æe se i veselje nalaziti u njemu, zahvaljivanje i pjevanje.
4 “Listen to me, my people; and hear me, my nation, for a law will go out from me, and I will establish my justice for a light to the peoples.
Poslušaj me, narode moj, i èuj me, rode moj; jer æe zakon od mene izaæi i sud svoj postaviæu da bude vidjelo narodima.
5 My righteousness is near. My salvation has gone out, and my arms will judge the peoples. The islands will wait for me, and they will trust my arm.
Blizu je pravda moja, izaæi æe spasenje moje, i mišice æe moje suditi narodima; mene æe ostrva èekati i u moju æe se mišicu uzdati.
6 Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look at the earth beneath; for the heavens will vanish away like smoke, and the earth will wear out like a garment. Its inhabitants will die in the same way, but my salvation will be forever, and my righteousness will not be abolished.
Podignite k nebu oèi svoje i pogledajte dolje na zemlju; jer æe nebesa išèeznuti kao dim i zemlja æe kao haljina ovetšati, i koji na njoj žive pomrijeæe takoðer; a spasenje æe moje ostati dovijeka, i pravde moje neæe nestati.
7 “Listen to me, you who know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law. Don’t fear the reproach of men, and don’t be dismayed at their insults.
Poslušajte me koji znate pravdu, narode, kojemu je u srcu zakon moj. Ne bojte se ruženja ljudskoga i od huljenja njihova ne plašite se.
8 For the moth will eat them up like a garment, and the worm will eat them like wool; but my righteousness will be forever, and my salvation to all generations.”
Jer æe ih moljac izjesti kao haljinu, i kao vunu izješæe ih crv; a pravda moja ostaje dovijeka i spasenje moje od koljena na koljeno.
9 Awake, awake, put on strength, arm of the LORD! Awake, as in the days of old, the generations of ancient times. Isn’t it you who cut Rahab in pieces, who pierced the monster?
Probudi se, probudi se, obuci se u silu, mišico Gospodnja; probudi se kao u staro vrijeme, za naraštaja prošlijeh; nijesi li ti isjekla Ravu i ranila zmaja?
10 Isn’t it you who dried up the sea, the waters of the great deep; who made the depths of the sea a way for the redeemed to pass over?
Nijesi li ti isušila more, vodu bezdana velikoga, od dubine morske naèinila put da proðu izbavljeni?
11 Those ransomed by the LORD will return, and come with singing to Zion. Everlasting joy shall be on their heads. They will obtain gladness and joy. Sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
Tako oni koje iskupi Gospod neka se vrate i doðu u Sion pjevajuæi, i veselje vjeèno neka bude nad glavom njihovom; radost i veselje neka zadobiju, a žalost i uzdisanje neka bježi.
12 “I, even I, am he who comforts you. Who are you, that you are afraid of man who shall die, and of the son of man who will be made as grass?
Ja, ja sam utješitelj vaš; ko si ti da se bojiš èovjeka smrtnoga i sina èovjeèijega, koji je kao trava?
13 Have you forgotten the LORD your Maker, who stretched out the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth? Do you live in fear continually all day because of the fury of the oppressor, when he prepares to destroy? Where is the fury of the oppressor?
I zaboravio si Boga tvorca svojega, koji je razapeo nebesa i osnovao zemlju? i jednako se bojiš svaki dan gnjeva onoga koji te pritješnjuje kad se sprema da zatire? a gdje je gnjev onoga koji pritješnjuje?
14 The captive exile will speedily be freed. He will not die and go down into the pit. His bread won’t fail.
Brzo æe se oprostiti sužanj, neæe umrijeti u jami, niti æe biti bez hljeba.
15 For I am the LORD your God, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar. the LORD of Hosts is his name.
Jer sam ja Gospod Bog tvoj, koji raskidam more, da valovi njegovi buèe; Gospod nad vojskama ime mi je.
16 I have put my words in your mouth and have covered you in the shadow of my hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and tell Zion, ‘You are my people.’”
Ja ti metnuh u usta rijeèi svoje i sjenom ruke svoje zaklonih te, da utvrdim nebesa i osnujem zemlju, i reèem Sionu: ti si moj narod.
17 Awake, awake! Stand up, Jerusalem, you who have drunk from the LORD’s hand the cup of his wrath. You have drunken the bowl of the cup of staggering, and drained it.
Probudi se, probudi se, ustani, Jerusalime! koji si pio iz ruke Gospodnje èašu gnjeva njegova, pio si, i talog iz strašne èaše ispio si.
18 There is no one to guide her among all the sons to whom she has given birth; and there is no one who takes her by the hand among all the sons whom she has brought up.
Od svijeh sinova koje je rodio nijedan ga nije vodio, i od svijeh sinova koje je othranio nijedan ga nije prihvatio za ruku.
19 These two things have happened to you— who will grieve with you?— desolation and destruction, and famine and the sword. How can I comfort you?
Ovo te dvoje zadesi; ko te požali? Pustoš i rasap, i glad i maè; ko æe te utješiti?
20 Your sons have fainted. They lie at the head of all the streets, like an antelope in a net. They are full of the LORD’s wrath, the rebuke of your God.
Sinovi tvoji obamrli leže po krajevima svijeh ulica kao bivo u mreži puni gnjeva Gospodnjega, i karanja Boga tvojega.
21 Therefore now hear this, you afflicted, and drunken, but not with wine:
Zato èuj ovo, nevoljni, i pijani, ne od vina.
22 Your Lord GOD, your God who pleads the cause of his people, says, “Behold, I have taken out of your hand the cup of staggering, even the bowl of the cup of my wrath. You will not drink it any more.
Ovako veli Gospod tvoj, Gospod i Bog tvoj, koji brani svoj narod: evo uzimam iz tvoje ruke èašu strašnu, talog u èaši gnjeva svojega; neæeš više piti.
23 I will put it into the hand of those who afflict you, who have said to your soul, ‘Bow down, that we may walk over you;’ and you have laid your back as the ground, like a street to those who walk over.”
Nego æu je dati u ruke onima koji te muèe, koji govoriše duši tvojoj: sagni se da prijeðemo, i ti si im podmetao leða svoja da budu kao zemlja i kao ulica onima koji prelaze.
