Jeremija 28

1 Iste godine, u početku kraljevanja Sidkije, kralja judejskoga, četvrte godine, petog mjeseca, Hananija, sin Azurov, prorok rodom iz Gibeona, reče mi u Domu Jahvinu pred svim svećenicima i svim narodom:

And it came to pass in that year, in the beginning of the reign of Sedecias king of Juda, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, that Hananias the son of Azur, a prophet of Gabaon spoke to me, in the house of the Lord before the priests, and all the people, saying:

2 “Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama, Bog Izraelov: 'Skršit ću jaram kralja babilonskoga.

Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.

3 Do dvije godine vratit ću na ovo mjesto sve posuđe Doma Jahvina koje je Nabukodonozor, kralj babilonski, odavde uzeo i odnio u Babilon.

As yet two years of days, and I will cause all the vessels of the house of the Lord to be brought back into this place, which Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon took away from this place, and carried them to Babylon.

4 A tako i Jekoniju, sina Jojakimova, kralja judejskoga, i sve izgnanike judejske, koji dospješe u Babilon, također ću vratiti na ovo mjesto - riječ je Jahvina - jer ću skršiti jaram kralja babilonskoga.'”

And I will bring back to this place Jechonias the son of Joakim king of Juda, and all the captives of Juda, that are gone to Babylon, saith the Lord: for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.

5 Tada prorok Jeremija odgovori proroku Hananiji pred svećenicima i pred svim narodom koji bijahu u Domu Jahvinu.

And Jeremias the prophet said to Hananias the prophet in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people that stood in the house of the Lord:

6 Reče prorok Jeremija: “Amen! Učinio Jahve tako! Ispunio Jahve riječi koje si prorokovao i vratio ovamo sve posuđe iz Doma Jahvina i sve izgnanike iz Babilona.

And Jeremias the prophet said: Amen, the Lord do so: the Lord perform thy words, which thou hast prophesied: that the vessels may be brought again into the house of the Lord, and all the captives may return out of Babylon to this place.

7 Ali čujder i ovu riječ koju ću kazati na tvoje uši i na uši svega naroda.

Nevertheless hear this word that I speak in thy ears, and in the ears of all the people:

8 Proroci koji su bili prije mene i tebe, odiskona prorokovahu mnogim moćnim zemljama i velikim kraljevstvima rat, glad, kugu.

The prophets that have been before me, and before thee from the beginning, and have prophesied concerning many countries, and concerning great kingdoms, of war, and of affliction, and of famine.

9 Ali o proroku koji proriče mir možeš istom kad se ispuni njegova proročka riječ znati da ga je zaista Jahve poslao.”

The prophet that prophesied peace when his word shall come to pass, the prophet shall be known, whom the Lord hath sent in truth.

10 Tada prorok Hananija skide jaram s vrata proroka Jeremije i skrši ga.

And Hananias the prophet took the chain from the neck of Jeremias the prophet, and broke it.

11 I reče Hananija pred svim narodom: “Ovako govori Jahve: 'Evo, ovako ću - za dvije godine - skršiti jaram Nabukodonozora, kralja babilonskoga, s vrata svih naroda!'” Tada prorok Jeremija ode svojim putem.

And Hananias spoke in the presence of all the people, saying: Thus saith the Lord: Even so will I break the yoke of Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon after two full years from off the neck of all the nations.

12 A kad prorok Hananija skrši jaram s vrata proroka Jeremije, dođe riječ Jahvina Jeremiji:

And Jeremias the prophet went his way. And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, after that Hananias the prophet had broken the chain from off the neck of Jeremias the prophet, saying:

13 “Idi i ovako reci Hananiji: 'Ovako govori Jahve: Ti si skršio drveni jaram, ali ću ja mjesto njega načiniti željezni.'

Go, and tell Hananias: Thus saith the Lord: Thou hast broken chains of wood, and thou shalt make for them chains of iron.

14 Jer ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama, Bog Izraelov: 'Željezni ću jaram staviti oko vrata svih ovih naroda da ih podvrgnem Nabukodonozoru, kralju babilonskom, i služit će mu, jer ja sam njemu podložio čak i poljsku zvjerad!'”

For thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: I have put a yoke of iron upon the neck of all these nations, to serve Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, and they shall serve him: moreover also I have given him the beasts of the earth.

15 I prorok Jeremija reče proroku Hananiji: “Čuj me dobro, Hananija! Tebe nije poslao Jahve, a ti si u narodu pobudio varave nade.

And Jeremias the prophet said to Hananias the prophet: Hear now, Hananias: the Lord hath not sent thee, and thou hast made this people to trust in a lie.

16 Zato ovako govori Jahve: 'Gle, brišem te s lica zemlje! Umrijet ćeš još ove godine, jer si propovijedao pobunu protiv Jahve!'”

Therefore thus saith the Lord: Behold I will send thee away from off the face of the earth: this year shalt thou die: for thou hast spoken against the Lord.

17 I umrije prorok Hananija te godine u sedmom mjesecu.

And Hananias the prophet died in that year, in the seventh month.
