Isaiah 26
1 On that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah: A strong city have we; his aid will he grant [us] as walls and defence.
Tada æe se pjevati ova pjesma u zemlji Judinoj: imamo tvrd grad; zidovi su i opkop spasenje.
2 Open ye the gates, that there may enter in the righteous nation which guardeth the truth.
Otvorite vrata da uðe narod pravedni, koji drži vjeru.
3 The confiding mind wilt thou keep in perfect peace; because he trusteth in thee.
Ko se tebe drži, èuvaš ga jednako u miru, jer se u tebe uzda.
4 Trust ye in the Lord unto eternity; for in Yah the Lord is everlasting protection.
Uzdajte se u Gospoda dovijeka, jer je Gospod Gospod vjeèna stijena.
5 For he bendeth down the dwellers of the height; the lofty fortress—he layeth it low; he layeth it low, along the ground; he casteth it down to the dust.
Jer ponižuje one koji nastavaju na visini, grad visoki obara, obara ga na zemlju, obraæa ga u prah.
6 The foot shall tread it down, the feet of the poor, the steps of the needy.
Te ga gazi noga, noge ubogih, stopala nevoljnijeh.
7 The path of the just is straight: thou, most upright, dost ever level the road of the just.
Put je pravedniku prav, ti ravniš stazu pravednome.
8 Yea, on the path of thy judgments, O Lord, have we waited for thee; for thy name, and for the remembrance of thee, was the longing of our soul.
I na putu sudova tvojih, Gospode, èekamo te; tvoje ime i tvoj spomen žudi duša.
9 In my soul have I longed for thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek for thee; for when thy judgments are [sent] on the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.
Dušom svojom žudim tebe noæu, i duhom svojim što je u meni tražim te jutrom; jer kad su sudovi tvoji na zemlji, uèe se pravdi koji žive u vasiljenoj.
10 If favor be shown to the wicked, he will not learn righteousness; in the land of uprightness will he deal unjustly, and will not regard the majesty of the Lord.
Ako se i pomiluje bezbožnik, ne uèi se pravdi, u zemlji najpravednijoj èini bezakonje i ne gleda na velièanstvo Gospodnje.
11 Lord, thy hand was raised high, but they would not see: oh that they might see, and be ashamed, [thy] zeal for the people; yea, the fire which shall devour them—thy enemies.
Gospode! ruka je tvoja visoko podignuta, a oni ne vide; vidjeæe i posramiæe se od revnosti za narod, i oganj æe proždrijeti neprijatelje tvoje.
12 Lord, thou wilt ordain peace for us; for also all our works hast thou accomplished for us.
Gospode! nama æeš dati mir, jer sva djela naša ti si nam uèinio.
13 O Lord our God, lords have had dominion over us beside thee; [but] of thee only would we make mention, —of thy name.
Gospode Bože naš, gospodariše nad nama gospodari drugi osim tebe, ali samo tobom pominjemo ime tvoje.
14 [They are] dead, they will not live [again]; [they are] departed, they will not rise [again]; therefore hast thou visited and destroyed them, and made to perish every memorial of them.
Pomriješe, neæe oživjeti, mrtvi buduæi neæe ustati, jer si ih ti pohodio i istrijebio, zatro svaki spomen njihov.
15 Thou hast done more for the nation, O Lord, thou hast done more for the nation; thou hast glorified thyself: thou hast enlarged all the ends of the earth.
Gospode, umnožio si narod, umnožio si narod i proslavio si se, ali si ih zagnao na sve krajeve zemaljske.
16 Lord, in trouble have they sought thee, they poured out earnest prayers when thy chastening was upon them.
Gospode, u nevolji tražiše te, izlivaše pokornu molitvu kad si ih karao.
17 Like as a pregnant woman, that is near giving birth, is in pain, [and] crieth out in her pangs: so have we been in thy presence, O Lord.
Kao trudna žena kad hoæe da se porodi pa se muèi i vièe od bola, taki bijasmo mi pred tobom, Gospode!
18 We have been pregnant and in pain, [but it was] as though we brought forth wind; we have not wrought any deliverance in the land; and the inhabitants of the world have not fallen.
Zatrudnjesmo, muèismo se da rodimo, i kao da rodismo vjetar, nikako ne pomogosmo zemlji, niti padoše koji žive u vasiljenoj.
19 Thy dead shall live, my dead bodies shall arise. Awake and sing ye, that dwell in the dust; for a dew on herbs is thy dew, and the earth shall cast out the departed.
Oživjeæe mrtvi tvoji, i moje æe mrtvo tijelo ustati. Probudite se, i pjevajte koji stanujete u prahu; jer je tvoja rosa rosa na travi, i zemlja æe izmetnuti mrtvace.
20 Go, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy door behind thee: hide thyself but for a little moment, until the indignation be passed away.
Hajde narode moj, uði u klijeti svoje, i zakljuèaj vrata svoja za sobom, prikrij se za èas, dokle proðe gnjev.
21 For, behold, the Lord cometh out of his place to visit the iniquity of the inhabitants of the earth on them: and the earth shall disclose her blood, and shall no more be a cover over her slain.
Jer, gle, Gospod izlazi iz mjesta svojega da pohodi stanovnike zemaljske za bezakonje njihovo, i zemlja æe otkriti krvi svoje niti æe više pokrivati pobijenijeh svojih.
