Jeremiah 17
1 “The sin of Judah is written with an iron stylus, engraved with a diamond point on the tablets of their hearts and on the horns of their altars.
Grijeh je Judin zapisan gvozdenom pisaljkom i vrhom od dijamanta, urezan je na ploèi srca njihova i na rogovima oltara vaših,
2 Even their children remember their altars and Asherah poles by the green trees and on the high hills.
Da se sinovi njihovi sjeæaju oltara njihovijeh i lugova njihovijeh pod zelenijem drvetima, na visokim humovima.
3 O My mountain in the countryside, I will give over your wealth and all your treasures as plunder, because of the sin of your high places, within all your borders.
Goro s poljem, daæu imanje tvoje, sve blago tvoje daæu da se razgrabi, visine tvoje, za grijeh po svijem meðama tvojim.
4 And you yourself will relinquish the inheritance that I gave you. I will enslave you to your enemies in a land that you do not know, for you have kindled My anger; it will burn forever.”
I ti æeš i koji su s tobom ostaviti našljedstvo svoje, koje sam ti dao, i uèiniæu da služiš neprijateljima svojim u zemlji koje ne poznaješ; jer ste raspalili oganj gnjeva mojega, koji æe gorjeti dovijeka.
5 This is what the LORD says: “Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind, who makes the flesh his strength and turns his heart from the LORD.
Ovako veli Gospod: da je proklet èovjek koji se uzda u èovjeka i koji stavlja tijelo sebi za mišicu, a od Gospoda otstupa srce njegovo.
6 He will be like a shrub in the desert; he will not see when prosperity comes. He will dwell in the parched places of the desert, in a salt land where no one lives.
Jer æe biti kao vrijes u pustinji, koji ne osjeæa kad doðe dobro, nego stoji u pustinji, na suhim mjestima u zemlji slanoj i u kojoj se ne živi.
7 But blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, whose confidence is in Him.
Blago èovjeku koji se uzda u Gospoda i kome je Gospod uzdanica.
8 He is like a tree planted by the waters that sends out its roots toward the stream. It does not fear when the heat comes, and its leaves are always green. It does not worry in a year of drought, nor does it cease to produce fruit.
Jer æe biti kao drvo usaðeno kraj vode i koje niz potok pušta žile svoje, koje ne osjeæa kad doðe pripeka, nego mu se list zeleni, i sušne godine ne brine se i ne prestaje raðati rod.
9 The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?
Srce je prijevarno više svega i opako; ko æe ga poznati?
10 I, the LORD, search the heart; I examine the mind to reward a man according to his way, by what his deeds deserve.
Ja Gospod ispitujem srca i iskušavam bubrege, da bih dao svakome prema putovima njegovijem i po plodu djela njegovijeh.
11 Like a partridge hatching eggs it did not lay is the man who makes a fortune unjustly. In the middle of his days his riches will desert him, and in the end he will be the fool.”
Kao što jarebica leži na jajima ali ne izleže, tako ko sabira bogatstvo ali s nepravdom, u polovini dana svojih ostaviæe ga i najposlije æe biti lud.
12 A glorious throne, exalted from the beginning, is the place of our sanctuary.
Mjesto je svetinje naše prijesto slave, visoko mjesto od poèetka.
13 O LORD, the hope of Israel, all who abandon You will be put to shame. All who turn away will be written in the dust, for they have abandoned the LORD, the fountain of living water.
Nade Izrailjev, Gospode! svi koji te ostavljaju neka se posrame; koji otstupaju od mene, neka se zapišu na zemlji, jer ostaviše izvor vode žive, Gospoda.
14 Heal me, O LORD, and I will be healed; save me, and I will be saved, for You are my praise.
Iscijeli me, Gospode, i biæu iscijeljen; izbavi me, i biæu izbavljen, jer si ti hvala moja.
15 Behold, they keep saying to me, “Where is the word of the LORD? Let it come now!”
Gle, oni mi govore: gdje je rijeè Gospodnja? Neka doðe.
16 But I have not run away from being Your shepherd; I have not desired the day of despair. You know that the utterance of my lips was spoken in Your presence.
A ja se ne zatezah iæi za tobom kao pastir, i dana žalosnoga ne željeh, ti znaš; što je god izašlo iz usta mojih, pred tobom je.
17 Do not become a terror to me; You are my refuge in the day of disaster.
Ne budi mi strah, ti si utoèište moje u zlu.
18 Let my persecutors be put to shame, but do not let me be put to shame. Let them be terrified, but do not let me be terrified. Bring upon them the day of disaster and shatter them with double destruction.
Neka se posrame koji me gone, a ja ne; neka se oni uplaše, a ja ne; pusti na njih zli dan, i dvostrukim polomom polomi ih.
19 This is what the LORD said to me: “Go and stand at the gate of the people, through which the kings of Judah go in and out; and stand at all the other gates of Jerusalem.
Ovako mi reèe Gospod: idi, i stani na vrata sinova narodnijeh, na koja ulaze carevi Judini i na koja izlaze, i na svaka vrata Jerusalimska.
20 Say to them, ‘Hear the word of the LORD, O kings of Judah, all people of Judah and Jerusalem who enter through these gates.
I reci im: èujte rijeè Gospodnju, carevi Judini i svi Judejci i svi Jerusalimljani, koji ulazite na ova vrata.
21 This is what the LORD says: Take heed for yourselves; do not carry a load or bring it through the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day.
Ovako veli Gospod: èuvajte se da ne nosite bremena u subotu i ne unosite na vrata Jerusalimska.
22 You must not carry a load out of your houses or do any work on the Sabbath day, but you must keep the Sabbath day holy, just as I commanded your forefathers.
I ne iznosite bremena iz kuæa svojih u subotu, i nikakoga posla ne radite, nego svetite subotu, kao što sam zapovjedio ocima vašim.
23 Yet they would not listen or incline their ear, but they stiffened their necks and would not listen or receive My discipline.
Ali ne poslušaše niti prignuše uha svojega, nego otvrdnuše vratom svojim da ne poslušaju i ne prime nauke.
24 If, however, you listen carefully to Me, says the LORD, and bring no load through the gates of this city on the Sabbath day, and keep the Sabbath day holy, and do no work on it,
Ako me poslušate, govori Gospod, da ne nosite bremena na vrata ovoga grada u subotu, nego svetite subotu ne radeæi u nju nikakoga posla,
25 then kings and princes will enter through the gates of this city. They will sit on the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses with their officials, along with the men of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem, and this city will be inhabited forever.
Tada æe ulaziti na vrata grada ovoga carevi i knezovi, koji sjede na prijestolu Davidovu, na kolima i na konjma, oni i knezovi njihovi, Judejci i Jerusalimljani, i stajaæe ovaj grad dovijeka.
26 And people will come from the cities of Judah and the places around Jerusalem, from the land of Benjamin, and from the foothills, the hill country, and the Negev, bringing burnt offerings and sacrifices, grain offerings and frankincense, and thank offerings to the house of the LORD.
I dolaziæe iz gradova Judinijeh i iz okoline Jerusalimske, i iz zemlje Venijaminove, i iz ravnice i iz gora i s juga, i donosiæe žrtve paljenice i prinose s darom i kadom, i žrtve zahvalne donosiæe u dom Gospodnji.
27 But if you do not listen to Me to keep the Sabbath day holy by not carrying a load while entering the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day, then I will kindle an unquenchable fire in its gates to consume the citadels of Jerusalem.’”
Ako li me ne poslušate da svetite subotu i ne nosite bremena ulazeæi na vrata Jerusalimska u subotu, onda æu raspaliti oganj na vratima njegovijem, koji æe upaliti dvorove Jerusalimske i neæe se ugasiti.
