Jeremiah 49
1 Concerning the Ammonites, this is what the LORD says: “Has Israel no sons? Is he without heir? Why then has Milcom taken possession of Gad? Why have his people settled in their cities?
Za sinove Amonove: ovako veli Gospod: zar Izrailj nema sinova? zar nema našljednika? zašto Malhom naslijedi zemlju Gadovu? i zašto se narod njegov naseli u njegovijem gradovima?
2 Therefore, behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will sound the battle cry against Rabbah of the Ammonites. It will become a heap of ruins, and its villages will be burned. Then Israel will drive out their dispossessors, says the LORD.
Zato evo idu dani, govori Gospod, kad æu uèiniti da se èuje vika ubojna u Ravi sinova Amonovijeh, i ona da bude gomila razvalina, i sela njezina popaljena ognjem; i Izrailj æe obladati onima koji bjehu njim obladali, govori Gospod.
3 Wail, O Heshbon, for Ai has been destroyed; cry out, O daughters of Rabbah! Put on sackcloth and mourn; run back and forth within your walls, for Milcom will go into exile together with his priests and officials.
Ridaj Esevone, jer je Gaj opustošen; vièite sela Ravska; pripašite oko sebe kostrijet, narièite i trèite oko plotova; jer æe Malhom otiæi u ropstvo, sveštenici njegovi i knezovi njegovi skupa.
4 Why do you boast of your valleys— your valleys so fruitful, O faithless daughter? You trust in your riches and say, ‘Who can come against me?’
Što se hvališ dolinama? Rastopila se dolina tvoja, kæeri odmetnico! koja se uzdaš u blago svoje: ko bi udario na me?
5 Behold, I am about to bring terror upon you, declares the Lord GOD of Hosts, from all those around you. You will each be driven headlong, with no one to regather the fugitives.
Evo ja æu pustiti na te strah otsvuda unaokolo, govori Gospod Gospod nad vojskama, i raspršaæete se svi, i neæe biti nikoga da sakupi bježan.
6 Yet afterward I will restore the Ammonites from captivity,” declares the LORD.
Ali æu poslije povratiti roblje sinova Amonovijeh, govori Gospod.
7 Concerning Edom, this is what the LORD of Hosts says: “Is there no longer wisdom in Teman? Has counsel perished from the prudent? Has their wisdom decayed?
Za Edoma, ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: zar nema više mudrosti u Temanu? nesta li svjeta razumnima? išèilje li mudrost njihova?
8 Turn and run! Lie low, O dwellers of Dedan, for I will bring disaster on Esau at the time I punish him.
Bježite, obratite pleæi, zavrite se duboko, stanovnici Dedanski, jer æu pustiti na Isava pogibao njegovu u vrijeme kad æu ga pohoditi.
9 If grape gatherers came to you, would they not leave some gleanings? Were thieves to come in the night, would they not steal only what they wanted?
Da ti doðu beraèi, ne bi li ti ostavili pabiraka? da doðu lupeži noæu, ne bi li odnijeli koliko im je dosta?
10 But I will strip Esau bare; I will uncover his hiding places, and he will be unable to conceal himself. His descendants will be destroyed along with his relatives and neighbors, and he will be no more.
Ali ja ogoluznih Isava, otkrih potaje njegove da se ne može sakriti; propade sjeme njegovo, braæa njegova i susjedi njegovi, niko ne osta.
11 Abandon your orphans; I will preserve their lives. Let your widows trust in Me.”
Ostavi sirote svoje, ja æu im život saèuvati, i udovice tvoje neka se uzdaju u me.
12 For this is what the LORD says: “If those who do not deserve to drink the cup must drink it, can you possibly remain unpunished? You will not go unpunished, for you must drink it too.
Jer ovako veli Gospod: evo, koji ne bi trebalo da piju iz èaše, doista æe piti; a ti li æeš ostati bez kara? neæeš ostati bez kara, nego æeš zacijelo piti.
13 For by Myself I have sworn, declares the LORD, that Bozrah will become a desolation, a disgrace, a ruin, and a curse, and all her cities will be in ruins forever.”
Jer sobom se zaklinjem, govori Gospod, da æe Vosora biti pustoš, rug, èudo i prokletstvo, i svi æe gradovi njezini biti pustinja vjeèna.
14 I have heard a message from the LORD; an envoy has been sent to the nations: “Assemble yourselves to march against her! Rise up for battle!”
Èuh glas od Gospoda, i glasnik bi poslan k narodima da reèe: skupite se i idite na nju, i dignite se u boj.
15 “For behold, I will make you small among nations, despised among men.
Jer gle, uèiniæu te da budeš mali meðu narodima i prezren meðu ljudima.
16 The terror you cause and the pride of your heart have deceived you, O dwellers in the clefts of the rocks, O occupiers of the mountain summit. Though you elevate your nest like the eagle, even from there I will bring you down,”
Obijest tvoja i ponositost srca tvojega prevari tebe, koji živiš u rasjelinama kamenijem i držiš se visokih humova; da naèiniš sebi gnijezdo visoko kao orao, i odande æu te svaliti, govori Gospod.
17 “Edom will become an object of horror. All who pass by will be appalled and will scoff at all her wounds.
I zemlja æe Edomska biti pustinja, ko proðe mimo nju, svak æe se èuditi i zviždati radi svijeh rana njezinijeh.
18 As Sodom and Gomorrah were overthrown along with their neighbors,” says the LORD, “no one will dwell there; no man will abide there.
Kao kad se zatr Sodom i Gomor i susjedstvo njihovo, veli Gospod, neæe se naseliti ondje niko niti æe se baviti ondje sin èovjeèji.
19 Behold, one will come up like a lion from the thickets of the Jordan to the watered pasture. For in an instant I will chase Edom from her land. Who is the chosen one I will appoint for this? For who is like Me, and who can challenge Me? What shepherd can stand against Me?”
Gle, kao lav izaæi æe podižuæi se više nego Jordan na stan silnoga; ali æu ga brzo otjerati iz te zemlje, i postaviæu nad njom onoga ko je izabran; jer ko je kao ja? i ko æe se preti sa mnom? i koji æe mi pastir odoljeti?
20 Therefore hear the plans that the LORD has drawn up against Edom and the strategies He has devised against the people of Teman: Surely the little ones of the flock will be dragged away; certainly their pasture will be made desolate because of them.
Zato èujte namjeru Gospodnju što je naumio za Edomce i misli njegove što je smislio za stanovnike Temanske: zaista najmanji iz stada razvlaèiæe ih, zaista æe opustjeti stan s njima.
21 At the sound of their fall the earth will quake; their cry will resound to the Red Sea.
Od praske padanja njihova zemlja æe se tresti, i vika æe se njihova èuti na Crvenom Moru.
22 Look! An eagle will soar and swoop down, spreading its wings over Bozrah. In that day the hearts of Edom’s mighty men will be like the heart of a woman in labor.
Gle, doæi æe i doletjeæe kao orao i raširiæe krila svoja nad Vosorom, i biæe srce u junaka Edomskih kao srce u žene koja se poraða.
23 Concerning Damascus: “Hamath and Arpad are put to shame, for they have heard a bad report; they are agitated like the sea; their anxiety cannot be calmed.
Za Damasak. Posrami se Emat i Arfad, jer èu zle glase; rastopiše se, strah je na moru, ne može se umiriti.
24 Damascus has become feeble; she has turned to flee. Panic has gripped her; anguish and pain have seized her like a woman in labor.
Damasak klonu, obrati se da bježi, drhat ga poduze, tuga i bolovi osvojiše ga kao porodilju.
25 How is the city of praise not forsaken, the town that brings Me joy?
Kako se ne ostavi slavni grad? grad radosti moje?
26 For her young men will fall in the streets, and all her warriors will be silenced in that day,”
Zato æe popadati mladiæi njegovi na ulicama njegovijem, i svi æe vojnici njegovi izginuti u onaj dan, govori Gospod nad vojskama.
27 “I will set fire to the walls of Damascus; it will consume the fortresses of Ben-hadad.”
I raspaliæu oganj u zidovima Damaštanskim, i proždrijeæe dvore Ven-Adadove.
28 Concerning Kedar and the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon defeated, this is what the LORD says: “Rise up, advance against Kedar, and destroy the people of the east!
Za Kidar i za carstva Asorska, koja razbi Navuhodonosor car Vavilonski, ovako veli Gospod: ustanite, idite na Kidar, i zatrite sinove istoène.
29 They will take their tents and flocks, their tent curtains and all their goods. They will take their camels for themselves. They will shout to them: ‘Terror is on every side!’
Uzeæe im šatore i stada, zavjese njihove i sudove njihove i kamile njihove oteæe, i vikaæe na njih strašno otsvuda.
30 Run! Escape quickly! Lie low, O residents of Hazor,” declares the LORD, “for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has drawn up a plan against you; he has devised a strategy against you.
Bježite, selite se daleko, zavrite se duboko, stanovnici Asorski, govori Gospod, jer je Navuhodonosor car Vavilonski namjerio namjeru protiv vas, i smislio misao protiv vas.
31 Rise up, advance against a nation at ease, one that dwells securely,” declares the LORD. “They have no gates or bars; they live alone.
Ustanite, idite k narodu mirnome, koji živi bez straha, govori Gospod, koji nema vrata ni prijevornica, žive sami.
32 Their camels will become plunder, and their large herds will be spoil. I will scatter to the wind in every direction those who shave their temples; I will bring calamity on them from all sides,”
I kamile æe njihove biti plijen, i mnoštvo stoke njihove grabež, i rasijaæu ih u sve vjetrove, one što se s kraja strigu; i dovešæu pogibao na njih sa svijeh strana, govori Gospod.
33 “Hazor will become a haunt for jackals, a desolation forever. No one will dwell there; no man will abide there.”
I Asor æe biti stan zmajevski, pustinja dovijeka: niko se neæe ondje naseliti, niti æe se baviti u njemu sin èovjeèji.
34 This is the word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam at the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah.
Rijeè Gospodnja koja doðe Jeremiji proroku za Elam, u poèetku carovanja Sedekije cara Judina, govoreæi:
35 This is what the LORD of Hosts says: “Behold, I will shatter Elam’s bow, the mainstay of their might.
Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: evo, ja æu slomiti luk Elamu, glavnu silu njegovu;
36 I will bring the four winds against Elam from the four corners of the heavens, and I will scatter them to all these winds. There will not be a nation to which Elam’s exiles will not go.
I dovešæu na Elam èetiri vjetra s èetiri kraja nebesa, i u sve te vjetrove rasijaæu ih, tako da neæe biti naroda kuda neæe otiæi prognanici Elamski.
37 So I will shatter Elam before their foes, before those who seek their lives. I will bring disaster upon them, even My fierce anger,” declares the LORD. “I will send out the sword after them until I finish them off.
I uplašiæu Elamce pred neprijateljima njihovijem, i pred onima koji traže dušu njihovu; i pustiæu zlo na njih, žestinu gnjeva svojega, govori Gospod, i pustiæu za njima maè dokle ih ne zatrem.
38 I will set My throne in Elam, and destroy its king and officials,”
I namjestiæu prijesto svoj u Elamu, i istrijebiæu odande cara i knezove, govori Gospod.
39 “Yet in the last days, I will restore Elam from captivity,”
Ali u pošljednje vrijeme povratiæu roblje Elamsko, govori Gospod.
