< Jeremija 33 >

1 Dok je Jeremija bio još zatvoren u tamničkom dvorištu, i drugi mu put dođe riječ Jahvina:
And the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah the second time, while he was still shut up in the court of the prison, saying,
2 “Ovako govori Jahve, koji stvori zemlju, oblikova je i učvrsti - ime mu je Jahve!
Thus saith Jehovah the doer of it, Jehovah that formeth it to establish it, Jehovah is his name:
3 Zazovi me, i odazvat ću ti se i objavit ću ti velike i nedokučive tajne o kojima ništa ne znaš.
Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and I will shew thee great and hidden things, which thou knowest not.
4 Jer ovako govori Jahve, Bog Izraelov, o kućama ovoga grada i o dvorima kraljeva judejskih, porušenim zbog nasipa i mača,
For thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are thrown down because of the mounds and because of the sword:
5 i o onima što zameću borbu s Kaldejcima da napune svoje kuće tjelesima ljudi koje pobih u srdžbi i jarosti svojoj, i odvratih lice svoje od ovoga grada zbog njihove opakosti.
They come to fight with the Chaldeans, but to fill them with the dead bodies of the men whom I have slain in mine anger and in my fury, and for all whose wickedness I have hid my face from this city.
6 Evo, ja ću zaliječiti njihovu ranu, ja ću ih iscijeliti i ozdraviti i pružiti im obilje istinskoga mira.
Behold, I will apply a healing dressing to it and cure, and I will heal them, and will reveal unto them an abundance of peace and truth.
7 Promijenit ću udes zemlje Judine i Jeruzalema i podići ću ih da budu kao nekoć.
And I will turn the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel, and will build them, as at the beginning.
8 Očistit ću ih od svakoga grijeha kojim sagriješiše protiv mene i oprostit ću im sve krivice koje mi skriviše odmetnuv se od mene.
And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against me, and I will pardon all their iniquities, whereby they have sinned against me, and whereby they have transgressed against me.
9 I Jeruzalem će mi biti na radost, na hvalu i čast pred svim narodima svijeta: kad čuju za sve dobro kojim ću ih nadijeliti, divit će se i čuditi svoj onoj sreći i miru što ću im ja dati.”
And it shall be to me a name of joy, a praise and a glory before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear of all the good that I do unto them; and they shall fear and tremble for all the good and for all the prosperity that I procure unto it.
10 Ovako govori Jahve: “Na ovome mjestu o kojemu vi velite: 'To je pustinja bez čovjeka i bez živinčeta' - u gradovima judejskim i po opustošenim ulicama jeruzalemskim opet će se oriti
Thus saith Jehovah: In this place of which ye say, It is waste, without man and without beast! in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem that are desolate, without man, and without inhabitant, and without beast,
11 poklici radosti, poklici zaručnika i zaručnice, poklici onih koji će u Domu Jahvinu prinositi žrtve zahvalnice pjevajući: 'Hvalite Jahvu nad Vojskama, jer je dobar Jahve - vječna je ljubav njegova!' Jer ja ću obnoviti zemlju da bude kao nekoć” - riječ je Jahvina.
there shall again be heard the voice of mirth and the voice of joy, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that say, Give ye thanks unto Jehovah of hosts; for Jehovah is good, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever, — of them that bring thanksgiving unto the house of Jehovah. For I will turn the captivity of the land as in the beginning, saith Jehovah.
12 Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama: “Na ovome mjestu koje je sada pusto, bez čovjeka i bez živinčeta, i u svim gradovima opet će biti pašnjaci za pastire što odmaraju stada svoja.
Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: In this place which is waste, without man and without beast, and in all the cities thereof, there shall again be a habitation of shepherds causing [their] flocks to lie down.
13 U gradovima Gorja, i u gradovima Šefele, i u gradovima Negeba, u kraju Benjaminovu, u okolici Jeruzalema i u gradovima Judinim opet će prolaziti ovce ispod ruke pastira koji će ih brojiti” - riječ je Jahvina.
In the cities of the hill-country, in the cities of the lowland, and in the cities of the south, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the environs of Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, shall the flocks pass again under the hands of him that counteth [them], saith Jehovah.
14 “Evo, dolaze dani - riječ je Jahvina - kad ću ispuniti dobro obećanje što ga dadoh domu Izraelovu i domu Judinu:
Behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, that I will perform the good word which I have spoken unto the house of Israel and unto the house of Judah.
15 U one dane i u vrijeme ono podići ću Davidu izdanak pravedni; on će zemljom vladati po pravu i pravici.
In those days, and at that time, will I cause a Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land.
16 U one dane Judeja će biti spašena, Jeruzalem će živjeti spokojno. A grad će se zvati: 'Jahve, Pravda naša.'
In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell in safety. And this is the name wherewith she shall be called: Jehovah our Righteousness.
17 Jer ovako govori Jahve: “Nikada Davidu neće nestati potomka koji će sjediti na prijestolju doma Izraelova.
For thus saith Jehovah: There shall never fail to David a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel;
18 I nikada neće levitima i svećenicima nestati potomaka koji će služiti preda mnom i prinositi paljenice, kaditi prinosnice i prikazivati klanice u sve dane.”
neither shall there fail to the priests the Levites a man before me to offer up burnt-offerings, and to burn oblations, and to do sacrifice continually.
19 I dođe riječ Jahvina Jeremiji:
And the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, saying,
20 Ovako govori Jahve: “Ako možete razvrći savez moj s danom i savez moj s noći, tako da ni dana ni noći više ne bude u pravo vrijeme,
Thus saith Jehovah: If ye can break my covenant [in respect] of the day, and my covenant [in respect] of the night, so that there should not be day and night in their season,
21 moći će se raskinuti i Savez moj sa slugom mojim Davidom te više neće imati sina koji bi kraljevao na prijestolju njegovu i s levitima i svećenicima koji mi služe.
[then] shall also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites, the priests, my ministers.
22 Kao što se vojska nebeska ne može izbrojiti ni izmjeriti pijesak morski, tako ću umnožiti potomstvo sluge svojega Davida i levite i svećenike koji mi služe.”
As the host of the heavens cannot be numbered, nor the sand of the sea measured, so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me.
23 I dođe riječ Jahvina Jeremiji:
And the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, saying,
24 “Nisi li opazio što ovi ljudi govore: 'Jahve je odbacio obadva plemena koja je bio sebi izabrao?' I s prezirom poriču narod moj kao da mi više nije narod.”
Hast thou not seen what this people have spoken, saying, The two families that Jehovah had chosen, he hath even cast them off? And they despise my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.
25 Ovako govori Jahve: “Da ne sklopih saveza svojega s danom i noći i da ne postavih zakone nebu i zemlji,
Thus saith Jehovah: If my covenant of day and night [stand] not, if I have not appointed the ordinances of the heavens and the earth,
26 mogao bih odbaciti potomstvo Jakova i Davida, sluge svojega, da više ne uzimam potomka njihova za vladara nad potomstvom Abrahamovim, Izakovim i Jakovljevim, kad promijenim udes njihov i kad im se smilujem.”
[then] will I also cast away the seed of Jacob, and of David my servant, so as not to take of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will turn their captivity, and will have mercy on them.
