¹Lebo Hospodin sa zľutuje nad Jakobom a zase si vyvolí Izraela a dá im, aby sa usadili na svojej zemi a odpočinuli si, a pohostín sa pripojí k nim, a pridružia sa k domu Jakobovmu.

¹For Yahweh will have compassion on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land. The foreigner will join himself with them, and they will unite with the house of Jacob.

²A pojmú ich národy a dovedú ich na ich miesto, a dom Izraelov si ich dedične prisvojí na pôde Hospodinovej za sluhov a za dievky, a zajmú tých, ktorí ich boli zajali, a budú panovať nad tými, ktorí ich nemilosrdne honili.

²The peoples will take them, and bring them to their place. The house of Israel will possess them in Yahweh’s land for servants and for handmaids. They will take as captives those whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors.

³A stane sa v deň, v ktorý ti dá Hospodin odpočinok od tvojho bolestného trápenia a od tvojho strachu a od tvrdej služby, ktorú si bol podrobený konať,

³It will happen in the day that Yahweh will give you rest from your sorrow, from your trouble, and from the hard service in which you were made to serve,

⁴že použiješ tohoto príslovia o babylonskom kráľovi a riekneš: Ako len prestal a utíchol pohonič! Prestalo dychtenie po zlate!

⁴that you will take up this parable against the king of Babylon, and say, “How the oppressor has ceased! The golden city has ceased!”

⁵Hospodin polámal palicu bezbožných a prút panujúcich,

⁵Yahweh has broken the staff of the wicked, the scepter of the rulers,

⁶toho, ktorý bil ľudí v prchlivosti neprestajnými údermi, ktorý deptajúc vládol v hneve nad národami; bolo to prenasledovanie bez šetrenia.

⁶who struck the peoples in wrath with a continual stroke, who ruled the nations in anger, with a persecution that none restrained.

⁷Odpočíva; je na pokoji celá zem; plesajú!

⁷The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet. They break out song.

⁸Ešte len i jedle sa radujú nad tebou, cedry Libanona, hovoriac: Odkedy si ľahol, neprišiel nikto hore proti nám, kto by zoťal.

⁸Yes, the fir trees rejoice with you, with the cedars of Lebanon, saying, “Since you are humbled, no lumberjack has come up against us.”

⁹Peklo zdola zbúrilo sa pre teba, vústrety tvojmu príchodu; zobudilo pre teba mŕtvych, všetkých náčelníkov zeme; spôsobilo to, že povstali so svojich trónov všetci kráľovia národov.

⁹ Sheol Sheol is the place of the dead. from beneath has moved for you to meet you at your coming. It stirs up the dead for you, even all the rulers of the earth. It has raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations.

¹⁰Tí všetci odpovedajú a hovoria ti: Či si aj ty zomdlel ako my? Nám si sa stal podobným?

¹⁰They all will answer and ask you, “Have you also become as weak as we are? Have you become like us?”

¹¹Tvoja pýcha je svrhnutá do pekla i so zvukom tvojich hárf; moľmi ti je postlané, a červy ťa prikrývajú.

¹¹Your pomp is brought down to Sheol Sheol is the place of the dead. , with the sound of your stringed instruments. Maggots are spread out under you, and worms cover you.

¹²Ako si len padol s nebies, jasná hviezdo, synu rannej zory! Zoťatý si na zem, ktorý si porážal národy.

¹²How you have fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, who laid the nations low!

¹³A veď ty si povedal vo svojom srdci: Vystúpim hore do neba; vyvýšim svoj trón nad hviezdy silného Boha a posadím sa na vrchu slávnostného shromaždenia Božieho, v najďaľších krajoch severa;

¹³You said in your heart, “I will ascend into heaven! I will exalt my throne above the stars of God! I will sit on the mountain of assembly, in the far north!

¹⁴vystúpim na výšiny oblakov a budem podobný Najvyššiemu!

¹⁴I will ascend above the heights of the clouds! I will make myself like the Most High!”

¹⁵Ale si svrhnutý do pekla, do najzadnejších kútov jamy.

¹⁵Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol Sheol is the place of the dead. , to the depths of the pit.

¹⁶Tí, ktorí ťa uvidia, uprú na teba svoj zrak; budú ťa pozorovať a povedia: Či je toto ten muž, ktorý to pôsobil, aby sa triasla zem, ktorý pôsobil to, aby sa chvely kráľovstvá,

¹⁶Those who see you will stare at you. They will ponder you, saying, “Is this the man who made the earth to tremble, who shook kingdoms;

¹⁷ktorý podvracal okruh sveta, takže bol jako pustina, a jeho mestá boril, svojich väzňov neprepúšťal domov?

¹⁷who made the world like a wilderness, and overthrew its cities; who didn’t release his prisoners to their home?”

¹⁸Všetci kráľovia národov, všetci, koľko ich bolo, ležia pochovaní v sláve, každý vo svojom dome;

¹⁸All the kings of the nations, sleep in glory, everyone in his own house.

¹⁹ale ty si odvrhnutý preč od svojho hrobu jako ohyzdný letorast, odiaty pobitými, prebodnutými od meča, ktorí sostupujú medzi kamene jamy, jako pošliapaná mrcina.

¹⁹But you are cast away from your tomb like an abominable branch, clothed with the slain, who are thrust through with the sword, who go down to the stones of the pit; like a dead body trodden under foot.

²⁰Nebudeš s nimi spolu ležať v hrobe, lebo si zkazil svoju zem, svoj ľud si povraždil; nebude nikdy až na veky menované semeno zlostníkov.

²⁰You will not join them in burial, because you have destroyed your land. You have killed your people. The seed of evildoers will not be named forever.

²¹Pripravte jeho synom bitúnok pre neprávosť ich otcov, aby nepovstali a nezaujali dedične zeme, a naplnil by sa povrch okruhu sveta mestami,

²¹Prepare for slaughter of his children because of the iniquity of their fathers, that they not rise up and possess the earth, and fill the surface of the world with cities.

²²lebo ináče povstanem proti nim, hovorí Hospodin Zástupov, a vytnem Babylonu meno i ostatok, syna i vnuka, hovorí Hospodin.

²²“I will rise up against them,” says Yahweh of Armies, “and cut off from Babylon name and remnant, and son and son’s son,” says Yahweh.

²³A obrátim ho v majetok ježov a v močiare a vymetiem ho metlou vykántrenia, hovorí Hospodin Zástupov.

²³“I will also make it a possession for the porcupine, and pools of water. I will sweep it with the broom of destruction,” says Yahweh of Armies.

²⁴Hospodin Zástupov prisahal a riekol: Ba cele iste bude tak, ako som myslel, a jako som uradil, tak to bude stáť,

²⁴Yahweh of Armies has sworn, saying, “Surely, as I have thought, so shall it happen; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand:

²⁵to jest, že skrúšim Assúra vo svojej zemi, a na svojich vrchoch ho pošliapem, a tak uhne s nich jeho jarmo, i jeho bremeno uhne s ich pleca.

²⁵that I will break the Assyrian in my land, and tread him under foot on my mountains. Then his yoke will leave them, and his burden leave their shoulders.

²⁶To je rada, uradená o celej zemi, a to je ruka, vystretá na všetky národy.

²⁶This is the plan that is determined for the whole earth. This is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations.

²⁷Lebo Hospodin Zástupov uzavrel v rade, nuž ktože zruší? A tá jeho vystretá ruka, ktože ju odvráti?

²⁷For Yahweh of Armies has planned, and who can stop it? His hand is stretched out, and who can turn it back?”

²⁸Roku, ktorého zomrel kráľ Achaz, bolo vyrieknuté toto bremeno:

²⁸This burden was in the year that king Ahaz died.

²⁹Neraduj sa, zem Filištínov, celá, že je polámaný prút toho, ktorý ťa šľahal! Lebo z koreňa hada vyjde bazilišek, a jeho plod bude ohnivý had lietajúci.

²⁹Don’t rejoice, O Philistia, all of you, because the rod that struck you is broken; for out of the serpent’s root an adder will emerge, and his fruit will be a fiery flying serpent.

³⁰A tak budú pásť prvorodení chudobných, a núdzni sa bezpečne položia so svojím stádom, ale tvoj koreň umorím hladom, a to, čo ostane z teba, pobijú.

³⁰The firstborn of the poor will eat, and the needy will lie down in safety; and I will kill your root with famine, and your remnant will be killed.

³¹Nože kvíľ, ó, bráno; krič, ó, mesto! Rozplynúť sa musíš, ty, celá zem Filištínov! Lebo od severa prijde dym, ani nebude toho, ktorý by sa oddelil od jeho shromaždení a nedostanovil sa.

³¹Howl, gate! Cry, city! You are melted away, Philistia, all of you; for smoke comes out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks.

³²A čože odpovedia poslovia národa? Že Hospodin pevne založil Sion, a že naň sa utečú utrápení jeho ľudu.

³²What will they answer the messengers of the nation? That Yahweh has founded Zion, and in her the afflicted of his people will take refuge.
