Jesaja 31 | English Standard Version

Woe to Those Who Go Down to Egypt

1 Woe* to those who go down to Egypt for help and rely on horses, who trust in chariots because they are many and in horsemen because they are very strong, but do not look to the Holy One of Israel or consult the Lord! 2 And yet he is wise and brings disaster; he does not call back his words, but will arise against the house of the evildoers and against the helpers of those who work iniquity. 3 The Egyptians are man, and not God, and their horses are flesh, and not spirit. When the Lord stretches out his hand, the helper will stumble, and he who is helped will fall, and they will all perish together. 4 For thus the Lord said to me, “As a lion or a young lion growls over his prey, and when a band of shepherds is called out against him he is not terrified by their shouting or daunted at their noise, so the Lord of hosts will come down to fight* on Mount Zion and on its hill. 5 Like birds hovering, so the Lord of hosts will protect Jerusalem; he will protect and deliver it; he will spare and rescue it.” 6 Turn to him from whom people* have deeply revolted, O children of Israel. 7 For in that day everyone shall cast away his idols of silver and his idols of gold, which your hands have sinfully made for you. 8 “And the Assyrian shall fall by a sword, not of man; and a sword, not of man, shall devour him; and he shall flee from the sword, and his young men shall be put to forced labor. 9 His rock shall pass away in terror, and his officers desert the standard in panic,” declares the Lord, whose fire is in Zion, and whose furnace is in Jerusalem.

1 Běda těm, kteříž se utíkají do Egypta o pomoc, a v koních zpoléhají, a doufají v vozích, že jich mnoho, a v jezdcích, že jich množství veliké, a nepatří k Svatému Izraelskému, aniž Hospodina hledají, 2 Ještoť i on jest moudrý. Protož uvede pomstu, a nezměníť slov svých, ale povstane proti domu zlostníků a proti pomoci těch, kteříž páší nepravost. 3 Egyptští pak jsou lidé, a ne Bůh silný, a koni jejich tělo, a ne duch. A protož jakž jen Hospodin vztáhne ruku svou, padne i pomocník, padne i ten, jemuž byl ku pomoci; a tak jednostejně všickni ti na nic přijdou. 4 Nebo tak řekl Hospodin ke mně: Jako když lev řve aneb lvíče nad loupeží svou, proti němuž byl-li by svolán houf pastýřů, křiku jejich se neděsí, aniž se pro hluk jejich koří: tak sstoupí Hospodin zástupů, aby bojoval o horu Sion, a o pahrbek její. 5 Jako ptáci létajíce, tak hájiti bude Hospodin zástupů Jeruzaléma, anobrž obhajuje vysvobodí, pomíjeje zachová. 6 Navraťtež se k tomu, od něhož hluboko zabředli synové Izraelští. 7 Nebo v ten den zavržete jeden každý modly své stříbrné a modly své zlaté, kterýchž vám nadělaly ruce vaše, abyste hřešili. 8 I padne Assur od meče ne muže, a meč ne člověka zžíře jej; a utíkati bude před mečem, a nejudatnější jeho pod plat uvedeni budou. 9 A tak skála jeho pro strach zmizí, a knížata jeho korouhve děsiti se budou, praví Hospodin, jehož jest oheň na Sionu a pec v Jeruzalémě.
