Izaija 29
Biblija: suvremeni hrvatski prijevod
Bog kažnjava Jeruzalem
29 Ariele, jao tebi, Ariele,[a]
grade u kojem se smjestio David.
Godinu za godinom slavite,
blagdan za blagdanom držite.
2 Ali ja ću te opkoliti, Ariele,
i bit će plača i kuknjave,
i bit ćeš mi kao žrtvenik.
3 Utaborit ću se oko tebe,
opkoliti te opsadnim kulama
i podići nasipe.
4 Oboren, govorit ćeš sa zemlje,
mumljat ćeš iz prašine.
Zvučat ćeš kao duh pokojnika,
šaptat ćeš iz praha.
5 No mnoštvo tvojih neprijatelja
postat će kao zrnca prašine.
Nasilno mnoštvo bit će kao pljeva
koju je otpuhnuo vjetar.
Bit će to iznenada.
6 BOG Svevladar doći će s grmljavinom,
zemljotresom i silnom tutnjavom,
s vihorom i olujom,
s plamenom vatre koja proždire.
7 Tada će mnoštvo naroda,
koji se bore protiv Ariela i opsjedaju ga,
nasrću na njega i njegove tvrđave,
nestati kao san ili noćna mora;
8 kao kad gladan čovjek sanja da jede,
a budi se praznog želuca,
ili kad žedan čovjek sanja da pije,
a budi se malaksao i žedan.
Tako će biti s mnoštvom naroda
koji se bore protiv brda Sion.
9 Zapanjite se! Začudite se!
Oslijepite, obnevidite!
Napijte se, ali ne od vina!
Teturajte, ali ne od opojnog pića!
10 BOG je na vas izlio duh obamrlosti.
Zatvorio vam je oči—vaše proroke,
pokrio vam je glave—vaše vidovnjake.
11 Zato vam je ovo viđenje kao riječi zapečaćene knjige. Ako je date nekom tko zna čitati i kažete mu: »Molimo te, pročitaj ovo«, on će reći: »Ne mogu jer je zapečaćeno.« 12 A ako je date nekom tko ne zna čitati i kažete mu: »Molimo te, pročitaj ovo«, on će reći: »Ne znam čitati.« 13 Gospodar kaže:
»Ovaj narod me časti samo riječima,
ali srce mu je daleko od mene.
Štuju me napamet naučenim
ljudskim tradicijama.
14 Zato ću ih opet zapanjiti,
činit ću čudo za čudom.
Nestat će mudrost mudrih,
iščeznut će razum pametnih.«
15 Teško onima koji traže dubine
da od BOGA sakriju svoje planove.
Oni svoja djela čine u tami,
govore: »Tko nas vidi? Tko će saznati?«
16 Kako sve činite naopako!
Kao da su glina i lončar isto!
Zar će djelo reći onome tko ga je napravio:
»Nisi me ti napravio«?
Može li lonac reći lončaru:
»Ti ništa ne razumiješ«?
Dolazak boljih vremena
17 Libanon će ubrzo biti plodna njiva,
a plodna njiva izgledat će kao šuma.
18 Toga dana gluhi će čuti riječi knjige,
a oči slijepih progledat će iz tmine.
19 Ponizni će se opet radovati u BOGU,
siromašni će se radovati u Izraelovoj Svetinji.
20 Nestat će okrutni, iščeznuti podrugljivci
i biti istrijebljeni svi koji smišljaju zlo.
21 To su oni koji druge okrivljuju riječima,
koji na sudu postavljaju zamku sucu
i bez razloga uskraćuju pravdu nedužnome.
22 Zato BOG, koji je otkupio Abrahama, kaže Jakovljevom narodu:
»Jakov se više neće sramiti,
više neće problijediti u licu.
23 Kada vide svu svoju djecu,
sve što sam učinio za njih,
bit će im moje ime sveto.
Častit će Jakovljevu Svetinju,
bojat će se Izraelovog Boga.
24 Oni koji su zastranili,
urazumit će se.
Oni koji gunđaju,
prihvatit će pouku.«

- 29,1 Ariel Naziv koji znači »Božji lav« i odnosi se na Jeruzalem. Isto u 7. retku.
Isaiah 29
King James Version
Isaiah 29
King James Version
29 Woe to Ariel, to Ariel, the city where David dwelt! add ye year to year; let them kill sacrifices.
2 Yet I will distress Ariel, and there shall be heaviness and sorrow: and it shall be unto me as Ariel.
3 And I will camp against thee round about, and will lay siege against thee with a mount, and I will raise forts against thee.
4 And thou shalt be brought down, and shalt speak out of the ground, and thy speech shall be low out of the dust, and thy voice shall be, as of one that hath a familiar spirit, out of the ground, and thy speech shall whisper out of the dust.
5 Moreover the multitude of thy strangers shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones shall be as chaff that passeth away: yea, it shall be at an instant suddenly.
6 Thou shalt be visited of the Lord of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire.
7 And the multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel, even all that fight against her and her munition, and that distress her, shall be as a dream of a night vision.
8 It shall even be as when an hungry man dreameth, and, behold, he eateth; but he awaketh, and his soul is empty: or as when a thirsty man dreameth, and, behold, he drinketh; but he awaketh, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul hath appetite: so shall the multitude of all the nations be, that fight against mount Zion.
9 Stay yourselves, and wonder; cry ye out, and cry: they are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink.
10 For the Lord hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes: the prophets and your rulers, the seers hath he covered.
11 And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed:
12 And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned.
13 Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:
14 Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.
15 Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the Lord, and their works are in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us?
16 Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter's clay: for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it, He had no understanding?
17 Is it not yet a very little while, and Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest?
18 And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity, and out of darkness.
19 The meek also shall increase their joy in the Lord, and the poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
20 For the terrible one is brought to nought, and the scorner is consumed, and all that watch for iniquity are cut off:
21 That make a man an offender for a word, and lay a snare for him that reproveth in the gate, and turn aside the just for a thing of nought.
22 Therefore thus saith the Lord, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob, Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale.
23 But when he seeth his children, the work of mine hands, in the midst of him, they shall sanctify my name, and sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall fear the God of Israel.
24 They also that erred in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmured shall learn doctrine.
Isaiah 29
New International Version
Isaiah 29
New International Version
Woe to David’s City
29 Woe(A) to you, Ariel, Ariel,(B)
the city(C) where David settled!
Add year to year
and let your cycle of festivals(D) go on.
2 Yet I will besiege Ariel;(E)
she will mourn and lament,(F)
she will be to me like an altar hearth.[a](G)
3 I will encamp against you on all sides;
I will encircle(H) you with towers
and set up my siege works(I) against you.
4 Brought low, you will speak from the ground;
your speech will mumble(J) out of the dust.(K)
Your voice will come ghostlike(L) from the earth;
out of the dust your speech will whisper.(M)
5 But your many enemies will become like fine dust,(N)
the ruthless(O) hordes like blown chaff.(P)
Suddenly,(Q) in an instant,
6 the Lord Almighty will come(R)
with thunder(S) and earthquake(T) and great noise,
with windstorm and tempest(U) and flames of a devouring fire.(V)
7 Then the hordes of all the nations(W) that fight against Ariel,(X)
that attack her and her fortress and besiege her,
will be as it is with a dream,(Y)
with a vision in the night—
8 as when a hungry person dreams of eating,
but awakens(Z) hungry still;
as when a thirsty person dreams of drinking,
but awakens faint and thirsty still.(AA)
So will it be with the hordes of all the nations
that fight against Mount Zion.(AB)
9 Be stunned and amazed,(AC)
blind yourselves and be sightless;(AD)
be drunk,(AE) but not from wine,(AF)
stagger,(AG) but not from beer.
10 The Lord has brought over you a deep sleep:(AH)
He has sealed your eyes(AI) (the prophets);(AJ)
he has covered your heads (the seers).(AK)
11 For you this whole vision(AL) is nothing but words sealed(AM) in a scroll. And if you give the scroll to someone who can read, and say, “Read this, please,” they will answer, “I can’t; it is sealed.” 12 Or if you give the scroll to someone who cannot read, and say, “Read this, please,” they will answer, “I don’t know how to read.”
13 The Lord says:
“These people(AN) come near to me with their mouth
and honor me with their lips,(AO)
but their hearts are far from me.(AP)
Their worship of me
is based on merely human rules they have been taught.[b](AQ)
14 Therefore once more I will astound these people
with wonder upon wonder;(AR)
the wisdom of the wise(AS) will perish,
the intelligence of the intelligent will vanish.(AT)”
15 Woe to those who go to great depths
to hide(AU) their plans from the Lord,
who do their work in darkness and think,
“Who sees us?(AV) Who will know?”(AW)
16 You turn things upside down,
as if the potter were thought to be like the clay!(AX)
Shall what is formed say to the one who formed(AY) it,
“You did not make me”?
Can the pot say to the potter,(AZ)
“You know nothing”?(BA)
17 In a very short time,(BB) will not Lebanon(BC) be turned into a fertile field(BD)
and the fertile field seem like a forest?(BE)
18 In that day(BF) the deaf(BG) will hear the words of the scroll,
and out of gloom and darkness(BH)
the eyes of the blind will see.(BI)
19 Once more the humble(BJ) will rejoice in the Lord;
the needy(BK) will rejoice in the Holy One(BL) of Israel.
20 The ruthless(BM) will vanish,(BN)
the mockers(BO) will disappear,
and all who have an eye for evil(BP) will be cut down—
21 those who with a word make someone out to be guilty,
who ensnare the defender in court(BQ)
and with false testimony(BR) deprive the innocent of justice.(BS)
22 Therefore this is what the Lord, who redeemed(BT) Abraham,(BU) says to the descendants of Jacob:
“No longer will Jacob be ashamed;(BV)
no longer will their faces grow pale.(BW)
23 When they see among them their children,(BX)
the work of my hands,(BY)
they will keep my name holy;(BZ)
they will acknowledge the holiness of the Holy One(CA) of Jacob,
and will stand in awe of the God of Israel.
24 Those who are wayward(CB) in spirit will gain understanding;(CC)
those who complain will accept instruction.”(CD)
