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, came up to Jerusalem to make war against it, but they were not able to fight 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 allied with Ephraim. Then his heart and the heart of his people shook, as the trees of the forest are shaken 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.

³And Jehovah said to Isaiah, Go out now to meet Ahaz, thou and thy son Shear-jashub, at the end of the aqueduct of the upper pool, on 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 thou shalt say unto him, Take heed and be quiet; fear not, and let not thy heart faint before these two ends of smoking firebrands, because of the fierce anger of Rezin and 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!

⁵Inasmuch as Syria hath taken evil counsel against thee, Ephraim [also] and the son of Remaliah, saying,

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

⁶Let us go up against Judah, and harass it, and make a breach therein for us, and set up a king therein -- 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 Jehovah: It shall not stand, nor 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 sixty-five years shall Ephraim be broken, so as to be no [more 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 believe not, surely ye shall not be established.

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

¹⁰And Jehovah spoke again to Ahaz, saying,

¹⁰A ešte hovoril Hospodin Achazovi a riekol:

¹¹Ask for thee a sign from Jehovah thy God; ask for it in the deep, or in the height above.

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

¹²And Ahaz said, I will not ask, and will not tempt Jehovah.

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

¹³And he said, Hear then, house of David: Is it a small matter for you to weary men, that ye weary also my God?

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

¹⁴Therefore will the Lord himself give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and shall bring forth a son, and 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 to choose the good.

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

¹⁶For before the child knoweth to refuse the evil and to choose the good, the land whose two kings thou fearest shall be forsaken.

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

¹⁷Jehovah will bring upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon thy father's house, days which have not come since the day when Ephraim turned away 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 Jehovah will hiss for the fly which is at the extremity of the streams of Egypt, and for the bee which 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 settle all of them in the desolate valleys, and in the holes of the rocks, and on all thorn-bushes, and on all the pastures.

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

²⁰In that day will the Lord, with a razor which is hired beyond the river, with the king of Assyria, shave the head and the hair of the feet, yea, the beard also will it take away.

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, from the abundance of milk they shall give, [that] he shall eat butter; for every one that remaineth in the midst of the land shall eat butter and honey.

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, where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silver pieces, shall become briars 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 the bow shall they come thither, for the whole land shall become briars and thorns.

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

²⁵And all mountains that have been dug up with the hoe -- thither will they not come, from fear of briars and thorns; and they shall be for the sending forth of oxen, and for the treading of small 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.
