Isaiah 18

Woe to the land shadowing with wings, which is beyond the rivers of Ethiopia:

Jao zemlji krilatih kukaca s one strane rijeka kuških,

That sendeth ambassadors by the sea, even in vessels of bulrushes upon the waters, saying, Go, ye swift messengers, to a nation scattered and peeled, to a people terrible from their beginning hitherto; a nation meted out and trodden down, whose land the rivers have spoiled!

tebi koja šalješ morem glasnike i vodom u čamcima rogoznim. Idite, brze skoroteče, k narodu stasitu, tamnoputu, k narodu kog se boje odvajkada, narodu žilavu, zavojevaču, čija je zemlja rijekama izbrazdana.

All ye inhabitants of the world, and dwellers on the earth, see ye, when he lifteth up an ensign on the mountains; and when he bloweth a trumpet, hear ye.

Svi stanovnici kruga zemaljskoga, i vi, žitelji zemlje, kad se zastava na brdu digne, gledajte; kad rog zatrubi, slušajte.

For so the LORD said unto me, I will take my rest, and I will consider in my dwelling place like a clear heat upon herbs, and like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.

Jer ovako mi govori Jahve: "Mirno ću gledati s mjesta svojega, k'o prozirna žega podnevna, k'o rosan oblak za vrućine žetvene.

For afore the harvest, when the bud is perfect, and the sour grape is ripening in the flower, he shall both cut off the sprigs with pruning hooks, and take away and cut down the branches.

Prije berbe, kad loza ocvate i cvijet u grozdove dozri, nožima će posjeći mladice, povezati, ukloniti grane.

They shall be left together unto the fowls of the mountains, and to the beasts of the earth: and the fowls shall summer upon them, and all the beasts of the earth shall winter upon them.

Svi će biti ostavljeni grabljivicama gorskim i zvijerima zemaljskim. Grabljivice će na njima ljetovati, zvijeri zemaljske zimovati."

In that time shall the present be brought unto the LORD of hosts of a people scattered and peeled, and from a people terrible from their beginning hitherto; a nation meted out and trodden under foot, whose land the rivers have spoiled, to the place of the name of the LORD of hosts, the mount Zion.

U ono će vrijeme narod stasit i tamnoputan, narod kojega se boje odvajkada, narod žilav i zavojevački, čija je zemlja izbrazdana rijekama, donositi darove Jahvi nad Vojskama, k mjestu imena Jahve nad Vojskama - na goru Sion.
