Jeremija 36
1 Četvrte godine Jojakima, sina Jošijina, kralja judejskoga, uputi Jahve Jeremiji ovu riječ:
And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, that this word came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
2 “Uzmi svitak i zapiši na nj sve riječi koje ti kazah o Jeruzalemu, Judeji i svim narodima, od dana kad ti počeh govoriti, od dana Jošijinih do dana današnjega.
Take thee a scroll of a book, and write in it all the words that I have spoken to thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spoke to thee, from the days of Josiah, even to this day.
3 Možda će čuti dom Judin o svim nesrećama što sam ih naumio oboriti na njih te će se vratiti svaki sa svoga zlog puta, a ja ću im oprostiti krivicu i grijeh njihov.”
It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do to them; that they may return every man from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.
4 Tada Jeremija dozva Baruha, sina Nerijina, i Baruh napisa na svitak, po kazivanju Jeremijinu, sve riječi koje mu Jahve bijaše objavio.
Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah: and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the LORD, which he had spoken to him, upon a scroll of a book.
5 Tada Jeremija naredi Baruhu: “Meni nije slobodno te ne mogu poći u Dom Jahvin.
And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut up; I cannot go into the house of the LORD:
6 Idi ti te na dan posta u Domu Jahvinu čitaj narodu riječi Jahvine iz svitka što si ga po mojem kazivanju napisao. Pročitaj ih i svim Judejcima koji su došli iz svojih gradova.
Therefore go thou, and read in the scroll, which thou hast written from my mouth, the words of the LORD in the ears of the people in the LORD’S house upon the day of fasting: and also thou shalt read them in the ears of all Judah that come out of their cities.
7 Možda će se vapaji njihovi vinuti k Jahvi i možda će se obratiti svatko sa zloga puta svojega; jer je velik bijes i srdžba kojima Jahve prijeti ovom narodu.”
It may be they will present their supplication before the LORD, and will return every one from his evil way: for great is the anger and the fury that the LORD hath pronounced against this people.
8 I Baruh, sin Nerijin, učini sve kako mu prorok Jeremija bijaše zapovjedio da pročita riječi Jahvine u Domu Jahvinu.
And Baruch the son of Neriah did according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, reading in the book the words of the LORD in the LORD’S house.
9 U petoj godini Jojakima, sina Jošijina, kralja judejskoga, mjeseca devetoga, pozvaše na post pred Jahvu sav narod jeruzalemski i sav narod što mogaše stići iz gradova judejskih u Jeruzalem.
And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, in the ninth month, that they proclaimed a fast before the LORD to all the people in Jerusalem, and to all the people that came from the cities of Judah to Jerusalem.
10 Baruh svemu narodu pročita riječi Jeremije iz svitka u Domu Jahvinu, u dvorani Gemarje, sina pisara Šafana, u gornjem predvorju pred Novim vratima Jahvina Doma.
Then Baruch read in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of the LORD, in the chamber of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the higher court, at the entrance of the new gate of the LORD’S house, in the ears of all the people.
11 A kad Mikaj, sin Šafanova sina Gemarje, ču iz knjige sve Jahvine riječi,
When Michaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard out of the book all the words of the LORD,
12 siđe u kraljevski dvor u sobu pisarovu, gdje upravo sjeđahu svi dostojanstvenici: pisar Elišama, Delaja, sin Šemajin, Elnatan, sin Akborov, Gemarja, sin Šafanov, Sidkija, sin Hananijin, i svi drugi dostojanstvenici.
Then he went down into the king’s house, into the scribe’s chamber: and, lo, all the princes sat there, even Elishama the scribe, and Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan the son of Achbor, and Gemariah the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.
13 Mikaj im kaza sve riječi što ih bijaše čuo kad ih je Baruh narodu čitao iz knjige.
Then Michaiah declared to them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read the book in the ears of the people.
14 Tada dostojanstvenici poslaše Jehudija, sina Netanijina, i Šelemju, sina Kušijeva, Baruhu da mu kažu: “Uzmi u ruke svitak iz kojega si čitao narodu i dođi!” Tada Baruh, sin Nerijin, uze svitak u ruke i dođe k njima.
Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, Take in thy hand the scroll in which thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come. So Baruch the son of Neriah took the scroll in his hand, and came to them.
15 Oni mi rekoše: “Hajde, sjedi i pročitaj nam!” I Baruh im pročita.
And they said to him, Sit down now, and read it in our ears. So Baruch read it in their ears.
16 Kad čuše sve one riječi, uplašeno se pogledaše i rekoše Baruhu: “Moramo sve to kazati kralju.”
Now it came to pass, when they had heard all the words, they were afraid both one and another, and said to Baruch, We will surely tell the king of all these words.
17 I upitaše Baruha: “Hajde, objasni nam kako ti napisa sve te riječi.”
And they asked Baruch, saying, Tell us now, How didst thou write all these words at his mouth?
18 Baruh će njima: “Jeremija mi je sve te riječi u pero kazivao, a ja sam ih crnilom u knjigu zapisao.”
Then Baruch answered them, He pronounced all these words to me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ink in the book.
19 Tada dostojanstvenici rekoše Baruhu: “Idi i sakrijte se, ti i Jeremija; nitko da ne zna gdje ste.”
Then said the princes to Baruch, Go, hide thyself, thou and Jeremiah; and let no man know where ye are.
20 I, pohranivši svitak u dvorani pisara Elišame, pođoše kralju u dvorsko predvorje i sve mu ispripovjediše.
And they went in to the king into the court, but they laid up the scroll in the chamber of Elishama the scribe, and told all the words in the ears of the king.
21 Kralj posla Jehudija da donese svitak: on ga donese iz sobe pisara Elišame i pročita ga kralju i dostojanstvenicima koji stajahu oko njega.
So the king sent Jehudi to bring the scroll: and he took it out of the chamber of Elishama the scribe. And Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the princes who stood beside the king.
22 Kralj je sjedio u zimskim odajama - bijaše to u devetom mjesecu - a pred njim stajaše ražarena žeravnica.
Now the king sat in the winterhouse in the ninth month: and there was a fire on the hearth burning before him.
23 I kako bi Jehudi pročitao tri-četiri stupca, kralj bi ih rezao pisarskim perorezom i bacao u vatru na žeravnice sve dok cio svitak ne bi uništen u vatri žeravnice.
And it came to pass, that when Jehudi had read three or four leaves, he cut it with the scribe’s penknife, and cast it into the fire that was on the hearth, until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was on the hearth.
24 Ni kralj ni njegove sluge ne prestrašiše se niti razderaše haljina kad čuše te riječi,
Yet they were not afraid, nor tore their garments, neither the king, nor any of his servants that heard all these words.
25 pa ipak Elnatan, Delaja i Gemarja moljahu kralja da ne spali svitak, ali on ih ne posluša.
Nevertheless Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the scroll: but he would not hear them.
26 Tada kralj zapovjedi kraljeviću Jerahmeelu i Seraji, sinu Azrielovu, i Šelemji, sinu Abdeelovu, da uhvate pisara Baruha i proroka Jeremiju. Ali ih Jahve bijaše sakrio.
But the king commanded Jerahmeel the son of Hammelech, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet: but the LORD hid them.
27 Pošto je dakle kralj spalio svitak s riječima što ih Baruh bijaše zapisao po Jeremijinu kazivanju, dođe riječ Jahvina Jeremiji:
Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, after that the king had burned the scroll, and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, saying,
28 “Uzmi drugi svitak i upiši u nj sve one riječi što bijahu na prvom svitku koji je Jojakim, kralj judejski, spalio.
Take thee again another scroll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first scroll, which Jehoiakim king of Judah hath burned.
29 A protiv Jojakima, kralja judejskoga, ovako reci: Ovako govori Jahve: Spalio si svitak govoreći: 'Zašto si u njemu napisao da će doći kralj babilonski koji će opustošiti zemlju ovu i istrijebiti i ljude i stoku?'
And thou shalt say to Jehoiakim king of Judah, Thus saith the LORD; Thou hast burned this scroll, saying, Why hast thou written in it, saying, The king of Babylon shall certainly come and destroy this land, and shall cause to cease from there man and beast?
30 Zato ovako govori Jahve protiv Jojakima, kralja judejskoga: 'On neće imati potomka da sjedne na prijestolje Davidovo, a njegovo mrtvo tijelo bit će bačeno na pripeku danju i noćni mraz.
Therefore thus saith the LORD concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah; He shall have none to sit upon the throne of David: and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.
31 Kaznit ću njega, i potomstvo njegovo, i sluge njegove zbog njihova bezakonja, i svalit ću na Jeruzalemce i na Judejce sve zlo kojim sam im prijetio, a nisu me slušali.”
And I will punish him and his seed and his servants for their iniquity; and I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them; but they hearkened not.
32 Tada Jeremija uze drugi svitak, dade ga pisaru Baruhu, sinu Nerijinu, i on po kazivanju Jeremijinu upisa sve riječi knjige koju je Jojakim, kralj judejski, na žeravnici spalio. I k njima je dopisano još mnogo onakvih riječi.
Then Jeremiah took another scroll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah; who wrote in it from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire: and there were besides added to them many like words.
