Isaiah 66

NEW JERUSALEM	Biblija Hrvatski
1 Thus says Yahweh: With heaven my throne and earth my footstool, what house could you build me,what place for me to rest,	1 Ovako govori Jahve: »Nebesa su moje prijestolje, a zemlja podnožje nogama! Kakvu kuću da mi sagradite i gdje da bude mjesto mog prebivališta?
2 when al these things were made by me and al belong to me? - declares Yahweh. But my eyes aredrawn to the person of humbled and contrite spirit, who trembles at my word.	2 Ta sve je moja ruka načinila i sve je moje« – riječ je Jahvina. »Ali na koga svoj pogled svraćam? Na siromaha i čovjeka duha ponizna koji od moje riječi dršće.«
3 Some slaughter a bul , some kill a human being, some sacrifice a lamb, some strangle a dog, somepresent an offering of pig's blood, some burn memorial incense, a revolting blessing; al these people havechosen their own ways and take delight in their disgusting practices.	3 »Ima ih koji kolju bika, ali i ljude ubijaju; žrtvuju ovcu, ali i psu vrat lome. Netko prinosi žrtvu, ali i krv svinjsku; prinose kâd, ali časte i kipove. Kao što oni izabraše svoje putove i duši im se mile gnusobe njihove,
4 I too take delight in making fools of them, I shal bring what they most fear down on them because Ihave called and no one would answer, I spoke and no one listened. They have done what I regard as evil, havechosen what displeases me.	4 tako ću i ja izabrati za njih nevolje nesmiljene, pustit ću na njih ono čega se plaše. Jer zvao sam, a nitko se ne odazva, govorio sam, a nitko ne posluša, nego su činili što je zlo u očima mojim, izabrali ono što mi nije po volji.«
5 Listen to the word of Yahweh, you who tremble at his word. Your brothers, who hate and reject youbecause of my name, have said, 'Let Yahweh show his glory, let us witness your joy!' But they will be put toshame.	5 Poslušajte riječ Jahvinu, vi koji od njegove riječi dršćete. »Govore braća vaša koja na vas mrze i odbacuju vas radi moga imena: ‘Neka se proslavi Jahve, pa da radost vašu vidimo.’ Ali oni će biti postiđeni.«
6 Listen! An uproar from the city! A voice from the Temple! The voice of Yahweh bringing retribution onhis enemies.	6 Čuj! Buka iz grada, glas iz Hrama! Glas je to Jahve koji uzvraća svojim neprijateljima.
7 Before being in labour she has given birth. Before the birth pangs came, she has been delivered of achild.	7 Prije neg’ bolove oćutje, eto je rodila. Prije neg’ trudove osjeti, porodi dječaka.
8 Who ever heard of such a thing, who ever saw anything like this? Can a country be born in one day?Can a nation be brought forth al at once? For Zion, scarcely in labour, has brought forth her children!	8 Tko je takvo što čuo, tko je takvo što vidio? Može li se zemlja u jednom danu napučiti? Može li se narod odjednom roditi? A tek što je osjetila trudove, Sionka rodi sinove!
9 Shal I open the womb and not bring to birth? says Yahweh. Shall I, who bring to birth, close the womb?says your God.	9 »Zar bih ja otvorio krilo materino a da ono ne rodi?« – govori Jahve. »Zar bih ja, koji dajem rađanje, zatvorio maternicu?« – kaže Bog tvoj.
10 Rejoice with Jerusalem, be glad for her, al you who love her! Rejoice, rejoice with her, al you whomourned her!	10 Veselite se s Jeruzalemom, kličite zbog njega svi koji ga ljubite! Radujte se, radujte s njime svi koji ste nad njim tugovali!
11 So that you may be suckled and satisfied from her consoling breast, so that you may drink deep withdelight from her generous nipple.	11 Nadojite se i nasitite na dojkama utjehe njegove da se nasišete i nasladite na grudima krepčine njegove.
12 For Yahweh says this: Look, I am going to send peace flowing over her like a river, and like a streamin spate the glory of the nations. You wil be suckled, carried on her hip and fondled in her lap.	12 Jer ovako govori Jahve: »Evo, mir ću na njih kao rijeku svratiti i kao potok nabujali bogatstvo naroda. Dojenčad ću njegovu na rukama nositi i milovati na koljenima.
13 As a mother comforts a child, so I shal comfort you; you wil be comforted in Jerusalem.	13 Kao što mati tješi sina, tako ću i ja vas utješiti – utješit ćete se u Jeruzalemu.«
14 At the sight your heart wil rejoice, and your limbs regain vigour like the grass. To his servants Yahwehwil reveal his hand, but to his enemies his fury.	14 Kad to vidite, srce će vam se radovati i procvast će vam kosti k’o mlada trava. Očitovat će se ruka Jahvina na njegovim slugama i gnjev nad neprijateljima njegovim.
15 For see how Yahweh comes in fire, his chariots like the whirlwind, to assuage his anger with burning,his rebukes with flaming fire.	15 Jer, evo, dolazi Jahve s ognjem – bojna su mu kola poput vihora – da u jarosti gnjev svoj iskali i prijetnje svoje u ognju žarkome.
16 For by fire wil Yahweh execute fair judgement, and by his sword, on all people; and Yahweh's victimswil be many.	16 Da, sudit će Jahve ognjem i mačem svakom smrtniku: pobijenih Jahvinih mnoštvo će biti.
17 As for those who sanctify themselves and purify themselves to enter the gardens, fol owing the one inthe centre, who eat the flesh of pigs, revolting things and rats: their deeds and their thoughts will perish together,declares Yahweh.	17 Oni koji se posvećuju i čiste u vrtovima iza onog jednog u sredini, koji jedu svinjetinu, nečisto i miševe – svi će zajedno izginuti, riječ je Jahvina.
18 I am coming to gather every nation and every language. They wil come to witness my glory.	18 Ja dobro poznajem njihova djela i namjere njihove. »Dolazim da saberem sve puke i jezike, i oni će doći i vidjeti moju slavu!
19 I shal give them a sign and send some of their survivors to the nations: to Tarshish, Put, Lud,Meshech, Tubal and Javan, to the distant coasts and islands that have never heard of me or seen my glory.They wil proclaim my glory to the nations,	19 Postavit ću im znak i poslat ću preživjele od njih k narodima u Taršiš, Put, Lud, Mošek, Roš, Tubal i Javan – k dalekim otocima koji nisu čuli glasa o meni ni vidjeli moje slave – i oni će naviještati slavu moju narodima.
20 and from al the nations they wil bring al your brothers as an offering to Yahweh, on horses, inchariots, in litters, on mules and on camels, to my holy mountain, Jerusalem, Yahweh says, like Israelitesbringing offerings in clean vessels to Yahweh's house.	20 I dovest će svu vašu braću između svih naroda kao prinos Jahvi – na konjima, na bojnim kolima, nosilima, na mazgama i jednogrbim devama – na svetu goru svoju u Jeruzalemu« – govori Jahve – »kao što sinovi Izraelovi prinose prinos u čistim posudama u domu Jahvinu.
21 And some of them I shal make into priests and Levites, Yahweh says.	21 I uzet ću sebi između njih svećenike, levite« – govori Jahve.
22 For as the new heavens and the new earth I am making wil endure before me, declares Yahweh, sowil your race and your name endure.	22 »Jer, kao što će nova nebesa i zemlja nova, koju ću stvoriti, trajati preda mnom« – riječ je Jahvina – »tako će vam ime i potomstvo trajati.
23 From New Moon to New Moon, from Sabbath to Sabbath, al humanity wil come and bow in mypresence, Yahweh says.	23 Od mlađaka do mlađaka, od subote do subote, dolazit će svi ljudi da se poklone pred licem mojim« – govori Jahve.
24 And on their way out they wil see the corpses of those who rebelled against me; for their worm wilnever die nor their fire be put out, and they wil be held in horror by al humanity.	24 »Izlazeći, gledat ću trupla ljudi koji se od mene odmetnuše: crv njihov neće umrijeti i njihov se oganj neće ugasiti – bit će na gadost svim ljudima.«
