< Jeremiah 16 >
1 Then again the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Potom doðe mi rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
2 You are not to take a wife for yourself or have sons or daughters in this place.
Nemoj se ženiti, i da nemaš sinova ni kæeri na tom mjestu.
3 For this is what the Lord has said about the sons and daughters who come to birth in this place, and about their mothers who have given them birth, and about their fathers who have given life to them in this land:
Jer ovako govori Gospod za sinove i kæeri što se rode na tom mjestu i za matere njihove koje ih rode, i za oce njihove koji ih rode u toj zemlji:
4 Death from evil diseases will overtake them; there will be no weeping for them and their bodies will not be put to rest; they will be like waste on the face of the earth: the sword and need of food will put an end to them; their dead bodies will be meat for the birds of heaven and for the beasts of the earth.
Ljutom æe smræu pomrijeti, neæe biti oplakani niti æe se pogrepsti, biæe gnoj po zemlji, i od maèa i od gladi izginuæe, i mrtva æe tjelesa njihova biti hrana pticama nebeskim i zvijerima zemaljskim.
5 For this is what the Lord has said: Do not go into the house of sorrow, do not go to make weeping or songs of grief for them: for I have taken away my peace from this people, says the Lord, even mercy and pity.
Jer ovako govori Gospod: ne ulazi u kuæu u kojoj je žalost, i ne idi da plaèeš niti ih žali; jer sam uzeo mir svoj od toga naroda, govori Gospod, milost i žaljenje.
6 Death will overtake great as well as small in the land: their bodies will not be put in a resting-place, and no one will be weeping for them or wounding themselves or cutting off their hair for them:
Pomrijeæe mali i veliki u ovoj zemlji, neæe biti pogrebeni niti æe se oplakati, niti æe se ko rezati ni glave striæi za njima.
7 No one will make a feast for them in sorrow, to give them comfort for the dead, or put to their lips the cup of comfort on account of their father or their mother.
Neæe im se dati hljeba u žalosti da se potješe za mrtvijem, niti æe ih napojiti iz èaše radi utjehe za ocem ili za materom.
8 And you are not to go into the house of feasting, or be seated with them to take food or drink.
Tako ne ulazi u kuæu u kojoj je žalost da sjedeš s njima da jedeš i piješ.
9 For the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said, See, before your eyes and in your days I will put an end in this place to the laughing voices and the voice of joy; to the voice of the newly-married man and the voice of the bride.
Jer ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama Bog Izrailjev: evo, ja æu uèiniti da na ovom mjestu pred vašim oèima i za vaših dana ne bude glasa radosna ni glasa vesela, glasa ženikova ni glasa nevjestina.
10 And it will be, that when you say all these words to the people, then they will say to you, Why has the Lord done all this evil against us? what is our wrongdoing and what is our sin which we have done against the Lord our God?
A kad kažeš tome narodu sve ove rijeèi, ako ti reku: zašto izreèe Gospod sve to veliko zlo na nas? i kako je bezakonje naše ili kaki je grijeh naš, kojim zgriješismo Gospodu Bogu svojemu?
11 Then you will say to them, Because your fathers have given me up, says the Lord, and have gone after other gods and become their servants and their worshippers, and have given me up and have not kept my law;
Tada im reci: jer oci vaši ostaviše mene, govori Gospod, i idoše za drugim bogovima i služiše im i klanjaše im se, a mene ostaviše i zakona mojega ne držaše;
12 And you have done worse evil than your fathers; for see, every one of you is guided by the pride of his evil heart, so as not to give ear to me:
A vi još gore èinite nego oci vaši, jer eto idete svaki po misli srca svojega zloga ne slušajuæi mene.
13 For this reason I will send you away out of this land into a land which is strange to you, to you and to your fathers; there you will be the servants of other gods day and night, and you will have no mercy from me.
Zato æu vas izbaciti iz ove zemlje u zemlju koje ne poznaste ni vi ni oci vaši, i ondje æete služiti drugim bogovima dan i noæ dokle vam ne uèinim milost.
14 For this cause, see, the days are coming, says the Lord, when it will no longer be said, By the living Lord, who took the children of Israel up out of the land of Egypt.
Zato, evo, idu dani, govori Gospod, kad se neæe više govoriti: tako da je živ Gospod koji je izveo sinove Izrailjeve iz zemlje Misirske;
15 But, By the living Lord, who took the children of Israel up out of the land of the north, and from all the countries where he had sent them: and I will take them back again to their land which I gave to their fathers.
Nego: tako da je živ Gospod koji je izveo sinove Izrailjeve iz zemlje sjeverne i iz svijeh zemalja u koje ih bješe razagnao! Jer æu ih opet dovesti u zemlju njihovu koju sam dao ocima njihovijem.
16 See, I will send for great numbers of fishermen, says the Lord, and they will take them like fish in a net; and after that, I will send for numbers of bowmen, and they will go after them, driving them from every mountain and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.
Gle, ja æu poslati mnoge ribare, govori Gospod, da ih love, i poslije æu poslati mnoge lovce da ih love po svakoj gori i po svakom humu i po rasjelinama kamenijem.
17 For my eyes are on all their ways: there is no cover for them from my face, and their evil-doing is not kept secret from my eyes.
Jer oèi moje paze na sve putove njihove, nijesu sakriveni od mene, niti je bezakonje njihovo zaklonjeno od mojih oèiju.
18 And I will give them the reward of their evil-doing and their sin twice over; because they have made my land unclean, and have made my heritage full of the bodies of their unholy and disgusting things.
I platiæu im prvo dvojinom za bezakonje njihovo i za grijeh njihov, što oskvrniše zemlju moju strvima gadova svojih, i našljedstvo moje napuniše gnusobama svojim.
19 O Lord, my strength and my strong tower, my safe place in the day of trouble, the nations will come to you from the ends of the earth, and say, The heritage of our fathers is nothing but deceit, even false things in which there is no profit.
Gospode, krjeposti moja i grade moj i utoèište moje u nevolji, k tebi æe doæi narodi od krajeva zemaljskih, i reæi æe: doista oci naši imaše laž, i taštinu i što nimalo ne pomaže.
20 Will a man make for himself gods which are no gods?
Eda li æe èovjek naèiniti sebi bogove, koji ipak nijesu bogovi?
21 For this reason, truly, I will make them see, this once I will give them knowledge of my hand and my power; and they will be certain that my name is the Lord.
Zato, evo, ja æu ih nauèiti sada, pokazaæu im ruku svoju i silu svoju, da poznadu da mi je ime Gospod.
