Izaija 58
1 Vpij naglas, ne brzdaj se, svoj glas povzdigni kakor šofar in mojemu ljudstvu pokaži njihov prestopek in Jakobovi hiši njihove grehe.
"Cry aloud, do not spare, lift up your voice like a trumpet, and declare to my people their disobedience, and to the house of Jacob their sins.
2 Vendar me dnevno iščejo in se veselijo spoznati moje poti kakor narod, ki je ravnal pravično in ni zapustil odredbe svojega Boga. Sprašujejo me odredbe o pravici, razveseljujejo se v približevanju Bogu.
Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways: as a nation that did righteousness, and did not forsake the ordinance of their God, they ask of me righteous judgments; they delight to draw near to God.
3 ›Zakaj smo se postili, ‹ pravijo ›ti pa ne vidiš? Zakaj smo mučili svojo dušo, ti pa se za to ne meniš?‹ Glejte, na dan svojega posta si najdete užitek in priganjate vse svoje delavce.
'Why have we fasted,' say they, 'and you do not see? Why have we afflicted our soul, and you take no knowledge?' "Look, in the day of your fast you find pleasure, and exact all your labors.
4 Glejte, postite se za prepir in razpravljanje in da udarjate s pestjo zlobnosti. Ne boste se postili, kakor delate ta dan, da bi svojemu glasu dali, da se sliši na višavi.
Look, you fast for strife and contention, and to strike with the fist of wickedness: you do not fast this day so as to make your voice to be heard on high.
5 Mar je to takšen post, ki sem ga izbral? Dan za človeka, da muči svojo dušo? Ali je to, da skloni svojo glavo kakor ločje in pod seboj razširja vrečevino in pepel? Mar boš to imenoval post in sprejemljiv dan Gospodu?
Is such the fast that I have chosen? the day for a man to afflict his soul? Is it to bow down his head as a rush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? Will you call this a fast, and an acceptable day to YHWH?
6 Mar ni to post, ki sem ga izbral? Da razvežeš vezi zlobnosti, da odstraniš težka bremena in da izpustiš zatirane prosto oditi in da zlomiš vsak jarem?
"Isn't this the fast that I have chosen: to release the bonds of wickedness, to undo the bands of the yoke, and to let the oppressed go free, and that you break every yoke?
7 Mar ni to, da deliš svoj kruh lačnemu in da privedeš revne, ki so izobčeni, k svoji hiši? Ko vidiš nagega, da ga pokriješ in da se ne skrivaš pred svojim lastnim mesom?
Isn't it to distribute your bread to the hungry, and that you bring the poor who are cast out to your house? When you see the naked, that you cover him; and that you not hide yourself from your own flesh?
8 Potem bo tvoja svetloba izbruhnila kakor jutro in tvoje zdravje bo naglo vzbrstelo in tvoja pravičnost bo šla pred teboj, Gospodova slava bo tvoja zadnja straža.
Then your light shall break forth as the morning, and your healing shall spring forth speedily; and your righteousness shall go before you; the glory of YHWH shall be your rear guard.
9 Potem boš klical in Gospod bo odgovoril; vpil boš in rekel bo: ›Tukaj sem.‹ Če odstraniš jarem iz svoje srede, kazanje s prstom in govorjenje ničnosti
Then you shall call, and YHWH will answer; you shall cry, and he will say, 'Here I am.' "If you take away from the midst of you the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking wickedly;
10 in če svojo dušo iztezaš k lačnemu in zadovoljiš trpečo dušo, potem bo v nejasnosti vstala tvoja svetloba in tvoja tema bo kakor poldan.
and if you draw out your soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul: then your light shall rise in darkness, and your obscurity be as the noonday;
11 Gospod te bo nenehno usmerjal in tvojo dušo zadovoljil v suši in tvoje kosti odebelil. In ti boš kakor namakan vrt in podoben boš vodnemu izviru, katerega vode ne usahnejo.
and YHWH will guide you continually, and satisfy your soul in dry places, and make strong your bones; and you shall be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.
12 Tisti, ki bodo od tebe, bodo gradili stare opustošene kraje. Vzdignil boš temelje mnogih rodov in imenovan boš: ›Popravljavec vrzeli, obnovitelj steza za prebivanje.‹
Those who shall be of you shall build the old waste places; you shall raise up the foundations of many generations; and you shall be called The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.
13 Če odvrneš svoje stopalo pred šabat, pred tem, da počneš svoje zadovoljstvo na moj sveti dan in imenuješ šabat veselje, [dan] svet Gospodu, častitljiv in ga boš častil in ne izvajal svojih lastnih poti niti iskal svojega lastnega zadovoljstva niti govoril svojih lastnih besed,
"If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on my holy day; and call the Sabbath a delight, and the holy of YHWH honorable; and shall honor it, not doing your own ways, nor finding your own pleasure, nor speaking your own words:
14 potem se boš veselil v Gospodu in povzročil ti bom, da jezdiš na visokih krajih zemlje in te hranil z dediščino svojega očeta Jakoba, kajti Gospodova usta so to govorila.‹«
then you shall delight yourself in YHWH; and I will make you to ride on the high places of the earth; and I will feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father:" for the mouth of YHWH has spoken it.
