Jeremiah 24
1 Jehovah showed me, and, behold, two baskets of figs set before the temple of Jehovah, after that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon had carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and the princes of Judah, with the craftsmen and smiths, from Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon.
Pokaza mi Gospod, i gle, dvije kotarice smokava namještene pred crkvom Gospodnjom, pošto Navuhodonosor car Vavilonski zarobi Jehoniju sina Joakimova cara Judina, i knezove Judine, i drvodjelje i kovaèe iz Jerusalima i odvede ih u Vavilon.
2 One basket had very good figs, like the figs that are first-ripe; and the other basket had very bad figs, which could not be eaten, they were so bad.
U jednoj kotarici bijahu smokve vrlo dobre, kake bijahu rane smokve, a u drugoj kotarici bijahu vrlo rðave smokve, koje se ne mogahu jesti, tako bijahu rðave.
3 Then said Jehovah unto me, What seest thou, Jeremiah? And I said, Figs; the good figs, very good; and the bad, very bad, that cannot be eaten, they are so bad.
I reèe mi Gospod: šta vidiš, Jeremija? A ja rekoh: smokve, jedne dobre smokve, vrlo dobre, a druge rðave, vrlo rðave, koje se ne mogu jesti, tako su rðave.
4 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
I doðe mi rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
5 Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel: Like these good figs, so will I regard the captives of Judah, whom I have sent out of this place into the land of the Chaldeans, for good.
Ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: kake su te smokve dobre, tako æe mi biti dobra radi roblje Judino, koje odaslah iz ovoga mjesta u zemlju Haldejsku.
6 For I will set mine eyes upon them for good, and I will bring them again to this land: and I will build them, and not pull them down; and I will plant them, and not pluck them up.
I obratiæu oèi svoje na njih dobra radi, i dovešæu ih opet u ovu zemlju, i sazidaæu ih i neæu ih razoriti, i nasadiæu ih i neæu ih poèupati.
7 And I will give them a heart to know me, that I am Jehovah: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God; for they shall return unto me with their whole heart.
Jer æu im dati srce da me poznadu da sam ja Gospod, i biæe mi narod i ja æu im biti Bog, jer æe se obratiti k meni svijem srcem svojim.
8 And as the bad figs, which cannot be eaten, they are so bad, surely thus saith Jehovah, So will I give up Zedekiah the king of Judah, and his princes, and the residue of Jerusalem, that remain in this land, and them that dwell in the land of Egypt,
A kake su te rðave smokve da se ne mogu jesti, kako su rðave, takim æu, veli Gospod, uèiniti Sedekiju cara Judina i knezove njegove i ostatak Jerusalimljana koji ostaše u ovoj zemlji i koji žive u zemlji Misirskoj.
9 I will even give them up to be tossed to and fro among all the kingdoms of the earth for evil; to be a reproach and a proverb, a taunt and a curse, in all places whither I shall drive them.
Uèiniæu da se potucaju po svijem carstvima zemaljskim na zlo, da budu sramota i prièa i rug i uklin po svijem mjestima, kuda ih raždenem.
10 And I will send the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, among them, till they be consumed from off the land that I gave unto them and to their fathers.
I poslaæu na njih maè, glad i pomor, dokle se ne istrijebe sa zemlje, koju sam dao njima i ocima njihovijem.
