1 Čujte riječ Jahvinu, sinovi Izraelovi, jer Jahve se parbi sa stanovnicima zemlje.
Hear [the] word of Yahweh O people of Israel for a case at law [belongs] to Yahweh with [the] inhabitants of the land for there not [is] faithfulness and there not [is] covenant loyalty and there not [is] knowledge of God in the land.
2 Nema više vjernosti, nema ljubavi, nema znanja Božjega u zemlji, već proklinjanje i laž, ubijanje i krađa, preljub i nasilje, jedna krv drugu stiže.
Cursing and deceiving and murdering and stealing and committing adultery people have broken out and blood blood they have touched.
3 Stoga tuguje zemlja i ginu svi stanovnici s poljskim zvijerima i pticama nebeskim te ugibaju i ribe u moru.
There-fore - it will dry up the land and he will wither every [one who] dwells in it among [the] animal[s] of the field and among [the] bird[s] of the heavens and also [the] fish of the sea they will be removed.
4 Ipak neka se nitko ne parbi, neka nitko ne kori! Ali s tobom se moram parbiti, svećeniče.

And you will stumble the day and he will stumble also a prophet with you night and I will destroy mother your.
6 Moj narod gine: nema znanja; jer si ti znanje odbacio, i ja odbacujem tebe iz svećenstva svoga; jer si Zakon svoga Boga zaboravio, i ja ću tvoje zaboraviti sinove.
They have been destroyed people my because not knowledge for you knowledge you have rejected and I will reject you from serving as a priest me and you have forgotten [the] law of God your I will forget children your also I.
7 Što ih je više bivalo, više su protiv mene griješili, Slavu su svoju Sramotom zamijenili.
As increased they so they sinned to me glory their for shame I will exchange.
8 Grijesima mog naroda oni se hrane, duša im hlepi za bezakonjem njegovim.

9 I sa svećenikom bit će k'o i s narodom; kaznit ću ga za njegove putove i naplatit ću mu za njegova djela.
And it will be as the people as the priest and I will visit on him ways his and deeds his I will repay to him.
10 Jest će, ali se nasititi neće; bludničit će, ali se neće množiti, jer oni su prestali štovati Jahvu -
And they will eat and not they will be satisfied they will prostitute themselves and not they will increase for Yahweh they have forsaken to keep.
11 blud, mošt i vino zarobiše im srce.

12 Narod moj savjet traži od drva, palica mu njegova daje odgovore: jer duh razvratni njih zavodi te se od Boga svoga bludu odaju.
People my by wood his he enquires and stick his it tells to him for a spirit of prostitution it has misled and they have prostituted themselves from under God their.
13 Oni žrtvuju na gorskim vrhuncima i na bregovima pale kad, pod hrastom, jablanom i dubom; jer je tako lagodno pod njihovom sjenom. I zato, odaju li se vaše kćeri bludu, čine li preljub vaše nevjeste,
On [the] tops of the mountains they sacrifice and on the hills they make smoke under oak and poplar and terebinth for [is] good shade its there-fore they prostitute themselves daughters your and brides your they commit adultery.
14 neću vam kazniti kćeri što bludniče niti nevjeste vaše što preljub čine; jer oni sami idu nasamo s bludnicama i žrtvuju s milosnicama hramskim. Tako, bez razuma narod u propast srlja!
Not I will visit [judgment] on daughters your if they prostitute themselves and on brides your if they commit adultery for they [masc] with the prostitutes they go apart and with the cult prostitutes they sacrifice and a people [which] not it understands it will be ruined.
