Jeremija 33

1 Dok je Jeremija bio još zatvoren u tamničkom dvorištu, i drugi mu put dođe riječ Jahvina:

Moreover the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the guard, saying,

2 “Ovako govori Jahve, koji stvori zemlju, oblikova je i učvrsti - ime mu je Jahve!

Thus saith the LORD that doeth it, the LORD that formeth it to establish it; the LORD 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 will shew thee great things, and difficult, 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 the LORD, the God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are broken down [to make a defence] against the mounts, and against 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 it is to fill them with the dead bodies of 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 bring it health and cure, and I will cure them; and I will reveal unto them abundance of peace and truth.

7 Promijenit ću udes zemlje Judine i Jeruzalema i podići ću ih da budu kao nekoć.

And I will cause the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel to return, and will build them, as at the first.

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 [this city] shall be to me for a name of joy, for a praise and for a glory, before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good that I do unto them, and shall fear and tremble for all the good and for all the peace 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 the LORD: Yet again there shall be heard in this place, whereof ye say, It is waste, without man and without beast, even 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.

the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that say, Give thanks to the LORD of hosts, for the LORD is good, for his mercy [endureth] for ever: [and of them] that bring [sacrifices] of thanksgiving into the house of the LORD. For I will cause the captivity of the land to return as at the first, saith the LORD.

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 the LORD of hosts: Yet again shall there be in this place, which is waste, without man and without beast, and in all the cities thereof, an 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 places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, shall the flocks again pass under the hands of him that telleth them, saith the LORD.

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 the LORD, that I will perform that good word which I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and concerning 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 safely: and this is [the name] whereby she shall be called, The LORD is our righteousness.

17 Jer ovako govori Jahve: “Nikada Davidu neće nestati potomka koji će sjediti na prijestolju doma Izraelova.

For thus saith the LORD: David shall never want 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 the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to burn oblations, and to do sacrifice continually.

19 I dođe riječ Jahvina Jeremiji:

And the word of the LORD came unto 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 the LORD: If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant 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 may 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 heaven cannot be numbered, neither 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 the LORD 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.”

Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying, The two families which the LORD did choose, he hath cast them off? thus do 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 the LORD: If my covenant of day and night [stand] not, if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and 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 that I will not take of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will cause their captivity to return, and will have mercy on them.
