Isaiah 23

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	Biblija Hrvatski
1 The burden of Tyre. Wail, you ships of the sea! For the house, from which they were accustomed to go forth, has been laid waste. From the land of Kittim, this has been revealed to them.	1 Proroštvo o Tiru. Kukajte, lađe taršiške, jer vaša je tvrđa razorena! Javljeno im je dok se iz kitimske vraćahu zemlje.
2 Be silent, you inhabitants of the island! The merchants of Sidon, crossing over the sea, have filled you.	2 Umuknite, stanovnici primorja, trgovci sidonski, kojih su glasnici brodili morem po vodi velikoj.
3 The offspring of the Nile is in the midst of many waters. The harvest of the river is her crop. And she has become the marketplace of the nations.	3 Sjetva Nila, žetva Rijeke, bijaše njegovo bogatstvo. On bijaše sajmište narodima.
4 Be ashamed, O Sidon! For the sea speaks, the strength of the sea, saying: “I have not been in labor, and I have not given birth, and I have not raised young men, nor have I promoted the development of virgins.”	4 Stidi se, Sidone, jer more govori: »Ne hvataju me trudovi niti rađam, ne odgajam momaka nit’ podižem djevojaka.«
5 When it has been heard in Egypt, they will be in anguish, when they hear of Tyre.	5 Uzdrhtat će Egipćani kad o Tiru vijest čuju.
6 Cross over the seas. Wail, you inhabitants of the island!	6 Otplovite u Taršiš, kukajte, stanovnici primorja.
7 Is this not your place, which from its earliest days has gloried in its antiquity? Her feet will lead her to a sojourn far away.	7 Je li to vaš grad veseli što postoji od davnih davnina i noge ga daleko nosile da se ondje naseli?
8 Who has made this plan against Tyre, which formerly was crowned, whose merchants were leaders, whose traders were illustrious on the earth?	8 Tko li je to odlučio protiv Tira okrunjenog, kojeg trgovci bijahu knezovi a prekupci odličnici zemlje?
9 The Lord of hosts has planned this, so that he may tear down the arrogance of all glory, and may bring disgrace to all the illustrious of the earth.	9 Jahve nad vojskama odluči tako da osramoti ponosnu slavu, da ponizi sve odličnike zemlje.
10 Cross through your land, as through a river, O daughter of the sea. You no longer have a belt.	10 Obrađuj zemlju, kćeri taršiška, tvoje luke više nema!
11 He has extended his hand over the sea. He has stirred up kingdoms. The Lord has given an order against Canaan, so that he may crush its strong.	11 Ruku svoju Gospod diže na more i kraljevstvima zadrma. Zapovjedi Jahve da se razore tvrđave kanaanske.
12 And he said: “You shall no longer increase so as to glory, while enduring calumny, O virgin daughter of Sidon. Rise up and set sail for Kittim; in that place, too, there will be no rest for you.”	12 Rekao je: »Nećeš više klikovati, okaljana djevice, kćeri sidonska!« Ustani i idi u Kitim; ni ondje nećeš imati mira.
13 Behold, the land of the Chaldeans: never before was there such a people! Assur founded it. They have led away its strong ones into captivity. They have dug under its houses. They have left it in ruins.	13 Evo zemlje kitimske ... podižu se kule opsadne, razaraju utvrde, sve je ruševina.
14 Wail, you ships of the sea! For your strength has been devastated.	14 Kukajte, brodovi taršiški, razorena je vaša tvrđava!
15 And this shall be in that day: you, O Tyre, will be forgotten for seventy years, like the days of one king. Then, after seventy years, there will be, for Tyre, something like the canticle of a harlot.	15 Dogodit će se, u onaj dan, da će Tir biti zaboravljen sedamdeset godina, kao dani jednoga kralja. A poslije sedamdeset godina Tiru će biti kao bludnici iz pjesme:
16 Take up a stringed instrument. Circulate through the city, you harlot who had been forgotten. Sing many canticles well, so that you may be remembered.	16 »Uzmi citaru i skići se gradom, bludnice zaboravljena! Sviraj lijepo, pjevaj mnogo, da te se spomenu!«
17 And this shall be after seventy years: the Lord will visit Tyre, and he will lead her back to her profits. And she will fornicate again with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth.	17 Poslije sedamdeset godina pohodit će Jahve Tir. I grad će opet dobivati svoju plaću bludničku. Podavat će se bludu sa svim kraljevstvima svijeta na licu zemlje.
18 And her businesses and her profits will be sanctified to the Lord. They will not be locked away and they will not be stored. For her business will be for those who will live in the presence of the Lord, so that they may eat until satisfied, and may be well-clothed even into old age.	18 Ali će njegova dobit i plaća biti posvećena Jahvi; neće se zgrtati ni čuvati, nego će njegova dobit biti za one koji prebivaju pred Jahvom da imaju hrane do sita i doličnu odjeću.
