¹And it came to pass in the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went up toward Jerusalem to war against it, but could not prevail against it.

¹A stalo sa za dní Achaza, syna Jotáma, syna Uziášovho, judského kráľa, že prišiel Recín, sýrsky kráľ, a Pekach, syn Remaliášov, izraelský kráľ, hore k Jeruzalemu do boja proti nemu, ale nemohol bojovať proti nemu.

²And it was told the house of David, saying, Syria is confederate with Ephraim. And his heart was moved, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the wood are moved with the wind.

²A bolo oznámené domu Dávidovmu, že vraj Sýrovia sa spolčili s Efraimom. Vtedy sa zaklátilo jeho srdce i srdce jeho ľudu, jako sa klátia stromy lesa od vetra.

³Then said the LORD unto Isaiah, Go forth now to meet Ahaz, thou, and Shearjashub thy son, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool in the highway of the fuller's field;

³Ale Hospodin riekol Izaiášovi: Nože vyjdi oproti Achazovi ty i Šeár Jašub, tvoj syn, ku koncu vodovodu horného rybníka, na hradskú cestu poľa valchárovho,

⁴And say unto him, Take heed, and be quiet; fear not, neither be fainthearted for the two tails of these smoking firebrands, for the fierce anger of Rezin with Syria, and of the son of Remaliah.

⁴a povieš mu: Maj na seba pozor a buď ticho! Neboj sa, a tvoje srdce nech nezomdlieva pre tie dva chvosty dymiacich hlavní, pre rozpálený hnev Recína a Sýrov alebo syna Remaliášovho!

⁵Because Syria, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah, have taken evil counsel against thee, saying,

⁵Pretože Sýrovia uradili proti tebe zlé, Efraim a syn Remaliášov povediac:

⁶Let us go up against Judah, and vex it, and let us make a breach therein for us, and set a king in the midst of it, even the son of Tabeal:

⁶Poďme hore proti Judsku a nažeňme mu strachu a vniknúc do neho strhnime ho na seba a učiňme v jeho strede kráľom syna Tabealovho,

⁷Thus saith the Lord GOD, It shall not stand, neither shall it come to pass.

⁷takto hovorí Pán Hospodin: Nebude stáť, čo hovoria, ani sa nestane.

⁸For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin; and within threescore and five years shall Ephraim be broken, that it be not a people.

⁸Lebo hlavou Sýrie je Damašek, a hlavou Damašku je Recín, a ešte šesťdesiatpäť rokov, a Efraim bude rozdrtený, takže prestane byť ľudom.

⁹And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah's son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not be established.

⁹A hlavou Efraima je Samária, a hlavou Samárie syn Remaliášov. Ak neuveríte, istotne neobstojíte.

¹⁰Moreover the LORD spake again unto Ahaz, saying,

¹⁰A ešte hovoril Hospodin Achazovi a riekol:

¹¹Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above.

¹¹Žiadaj si znamenie od Hospodina, svojho Boha, žiadaj, už či bude z hlboka dole a či z vysoka hore.

¹²But Ahaz said, I will not ask, neither will I tempt the LORD.

¹²Ale Achaz povedal: Nebudem žiadať a nebudem pokúšať Hospodina.

¹³And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David; Is it a small thing for you to weary men, but will ye weary my God also?

¹³Vtedy riekol prorok: Nože počujte, dome Dávidov: Či vám je to málo unavovať ľudí, že unavujete ešte i môjho Boha?

¹⁴Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.

¹⁴Preto vám dá sám Pán znamenie: Hľa, panna počne a porodí syna a nazve jeho meno Immanuel.

¹⁵Butter and honey shall he eat, that he may know to refuse the evil, and choose the good.

¹⁵Maslo a med bude jesť, dokiaľ nebude vedieť zavrhnúť zlé a vyvoliť dobré.

¹⁶For before the child shall know to refuse the evil, and choose the good, the land that thou abhorrest shall be forsaken of both her kings.

¹⁶Lebo prv ako bude vedieť chlapča zavrhnúť zlé a vyvoliť dobré, bude opustená zem, ktorá sa ti bridí pre jej dvoch kráľov.

¹⁷The LORD shall bring upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon thy father's house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim departed from Judah; even the king of Assyria.

¹⁷Hospodin privedie na teba, na tvoj ľud a na dom tvojho otca dni, jaké neprišly odo dňa, ktorého odstúpil Efraim od Júdu, privedie kráľa Assýrie.

¹⁸And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall hiss for the fly that is in the uttermost part of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.

¹⁸A stane sa toho dňa, že Hospodin zapískne na muchy, ktoré sú na konci riek Egypta, a na včely, ktoré sú v assýrskej zemi,

¹⁹And they shall come, and shall rest all of them in the desolate valleys, and in the holes of the rocks, and upon all thorns, and upon all bushes.

¹⁹a prijdú a všetky sa usadia v pustých odľahlých údoliach a v skalných trhlinách, na všetkých chrastinách i na všetkých lúkach.

²⁰In the same day shall the Lord shave with a razor that is hired, namely, by them beyond the river, by the king of Assyria, the head, and the hair of the feet: and it shall also consume the beard.

²⁰Toho dňa oholí Pán tou najatou britvou, tými zpoza rieky, kráľom Assýrie, hlavu i vlasy nôh, áno, i bradu oholí ona docela.

²¹And it shall come to pass in that day, that a man shall nourish a young cow, and two sheep;

²¹A stane sa toho dňa, že človek bude chovať kravičku a dvoje drobného dobytka.

²²And it shall come to pass, for the abundance of milk that they shall give he shall eat butter: for butter and honey shall every one eat that is left in the land.

²²Ale stane sa, že pre množstvo mlieka, ktoré nadojí, bude jesť maslo, lebo maslo a med bude jesť každý, kto pozostane v zemi.

²³And it shall come to pass in that day, that every place shall be, where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silverlings, it shall even be for briers and thorns.

²³A taktiež bude toho dňa, že každé miesto, na ktorom bývalo tisíc kmeňov viniča za tisíc strieborných, bude pre tŕnie a bodľač.

²⁴With arrows and with bows shall men come thither; because all the land shall become briers and thorns.

²⁴So strelami a s lučišťom ta prijde človek, lebo tŕním a bodľačou bude porastená celá zem.

²⁵And on all hills that shall be digged with the mattock, there shall not come thither the fear of briers and thorns: but it shall be for the sending forth of oxen, and for the treading of lesser cattle.

²⁵A čo do všetkých vrchov, ktoré sa prekopávajú motykou, neprijdeš na ne, lebo sa budeš báť tŕnia a bodľače, a bude to na to, aby sa ta vyhnal vôl, a aby to šliapal drobný dobytok.
