Isaiah 48

Čujte ovo, kućo Jakovljeva, vi koji se zovete imenom Izraelovim i koji ste izišli iz voda Judinih! Vi koji se Jahvinim imenom kunete i slavite Boga Izraelova, ali ne u istini i pravdi.

Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah, which swear by the name of the LORD, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness.

Jer vi se nazivate po Svetome gradu i oslanjate se na Boga Izraelova, Jahve nad Vojskama njemu je ime.

For they call themselves of the holy city, and stay themselves upon the God of Israel; The LORD of hosts is his name.

Dogođaje prošle odavna sam navijestio, iz mojih su izišli usta i ja sam ih objavio, učinih brzo, i zbi se.

I have declared the former things from the beginning; and they went forth out of my mouth, and I shewed them; I did them suddenly, and they came to pass.

Jer znao sam da si tvrdokoran, da ti je šija žila gvozdena i čelo da ti je mjedeno.

Because I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass;

Zato sam ti već onda navijestio, javio ti prije nego što se zbilo, da ne bi rekao: "Moj kip učini to, rezani moj lik i ljeveni kip zapovjediše tako!"

I have even from the beginning declared it to thee; before it came to pass I shewed it thee: lest thou shouldest say, Mine idol hath done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, hath commanded them.

Čuo si i vidio sve to; zar ne priznaješ? A sada navijestit ću ti nešto novo, otajno, što još ne znaš;

Thou hast heard, see all this; and will not ye declare it? I have shewed thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them.

ovog je trena stvoreno, a ne odavna, o tome dosad nisi ništa čuo, da ne bi rekao: "Znao sam."

They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.

Nisi o tome čuo ni znao, niti se uho tvoje prije otvorilo, jer znadoh da ćeš se iznevjeriti i da te od utrobe majčine zovu otpadnikom.

Yea, thou heardest not; yea, thou knewest not; yea, from that time that thine ear was not opened: for I knew that thou wouldest deal very treacherously, and wast called a transgressor from the womb.

Radi imena svoga odgađah svoj gnjev, radi časti svoje susprezah se da te ne uništim.

For my name's sake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off.

Gle, pročistio sam te poput srebra, iskušao te u talioniku nevolje.

Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.

Sebe radi činih tako, sebe radi! TÓa zar da se ime moje obeščasti? Slave svoje drugome ne dam!

For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I will not give my glory unto another.

Čuj me, Jakove, Izraele, koga sam pozvao: Ja jesam, ja sam prvi, ja sam i posljednji.

Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last.

Ruka moja zemlju utemelji, desnica mi razape nebesa. Pozovem ih samo, i odmah dolaze.

Mine hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the heavens: when I call unto them, they stand up together.

Saberite se svi i čujte: tko je od njih to prorekao? "Onaj koga Jahve ljubi ispunit će volju moju nad Babilonom i nad potomstvom kaldejskim."

All ye, assemble yourselves, and hear; which among them hath declared these things? The LORD hath loved him: he will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm shall be on the Chaldeans.

Ja rekoh i pozvah ga, vodih ga i pomogoh u naumu.

I, even I, have spoken; yea, I have called him: I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous.

Pristupite k meni i počujte ovo: "Od početka nisam vam govorio tajno, i kad se zbivalo, bijah ondje." - "A sada me Gospod Jahve šalje s duhom svojim."

Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me.

Ovako govori Jahve, otkupitelj tvoj, Svetac Izraelov: "Ja, Jahve, Bog tvoj, tvojem dobru te učim, vodim te putem kojim ti je ići.

Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.

O, da si pazio na zapovijedi moje, kao rijeka sreća bi tvoja bila, a pravda tvoja kao morski valovi!

O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments! then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea:

Potomstva bi tvojeg bilo kao pijeska, a poroda utrobe tvoje kao njegovih zrnaca! Nikad ti se ime ne bi zatrlo niti izbrisalo preda mnom!"

Thy seed also had been as the sand, and the offspring of thy bowels like the gravel thereof; his name should not have been cut off nor destroyed from before me.

Izađite iz Babilona, bježite iz Kaldeje! Glasno kličući, kazujte, objavljujte, do nakraj zemlje razglasite! Govorite: "Jahve je otkupio slugu svoga Jakova!

Go ye forth of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, with a voice of singing declare ye, tell this, utter it even to the end of the earth; say ye, The LORD hath redeemed his servant Jacob.

Nisu žeđali dok ih je kroz pustinju vodio; iz stijene je za njih vodu izbio, rascijepio je pećinu i potekla je voda."

And they thirsted not when he led them through the deserts: he caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them: he clave the rock also, and the waters gushed out.

"Nema mira opakima," kaže Jahve.

There is no peace, saith the LORD, unto the wicked.
