Jeremiah 36
1 Now it came about in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, that this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,
Četvrte godine Jojakima, sina Jošijina, kralja judejskoga, uputi Jahve Jeremiji ovu riječ:
2 Take a book and put down in it all the words I have said to you against Israel and against Judah and against all the nations, from the day when my word came to you in the days of Josiah till this day.
“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.
3 It may be that the people of Judah, hearing of all the evil which it is my purpose to do to them, will be turned, every man from his evil ways; so that they may have my forgiveness for their evil-doing and their sin.
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.”
4 Then Jeremiah sent for Baruch, the son of Neriah; and Baruch took down from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the Lord which he had said to him, writing them in a book.
Tada Jeremija dozva Baruha, sina Nerijina, i Baruh napisa na svitak, po kazivanju Jeremijinu, sve riječi koje mu Jahve bijaše objavio.
5 And Jeremiah gave orders to Baruch, saying, I am shut up, and am not able to go into the house of the Lord:
Tada Jeremija naredi Baruhu: “Meni nije slobodno te ne mogu poći u Dom Jahvin.
6 So you are to go, reading there from the book, which you have taken down from my mouth, the words of the Lord, in the hearing of the people in the Lord's house, on a day when they go without food, and in the hearing of all the men of Judah who have come out from their towns.
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.
7 It may be that their prayer for grace will go up to the Lord, and that every man will be turned from his evil ways: for great is the wrath and the passion made clear by the Lord against this people.
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.”
8 And Baruch, the son of Neriah, did as Jeremiah the prophet gave him orders to do, reading from the book the words of the Lord in the Lord's house.
I Baruh, sin Nerijin, učini sve kako mu prorok Jeremija bijaše zapovjedio da pročita riječi Jahvine u Domu Jahvinu.
9 Now it came about in the fifth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, in the ninth month, that it was given out publicly that all the people in Jerusalem, and all the people who came from the towns of Judah to Jerusalem, were to keep from food before the Lord.
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.
10 Then Baruch gave a public reading of the words of Jeremiah from the book, in the house of the Lord, in the room of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the higher square, as one goes in by the new doorway of the Lord's house, in the hearing of all the people.
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.
11 And Micaiah, the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, after hearing all the words of the Lord from the book,
A kad Mikaj, sin Šafanova sina Gemarje, ču iz knjige sve Jahvine riječi,
12 Went down to the king's house, to the scribe's room: and all the rulers were seated there, 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 rulers.
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.
13 Then Micaiah gave them an account of all the words which had come to his ears when Baruch was reading the book to the people.
Mikaj im kaza sve riječi što ih bijaše čuo kad ih je Baruh narodu čitao iz knjige.
14 So all the rulers sent Jehudi, the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, Take in your hand the book from which you have been reading to the people and come. So Baruch, the son of Neriah, took the book in his hand and came down to them.
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.
15 Then they said to him, Be seated now, and give us a reading from it. So Baruch did so, reading it to them.
Oni mi rekoše: “Hajde, sjedi i pročitaj nam!” I Baruh im pročita.
16 Now it came about that, after hearing all the words, they said to one another in fear, We will certainly give the king an account of all these words.
Kad čuše sve one riječi, uplašeno se pogledaše i rekoše Baruhu: “Moramo sve to kazati kralju.”
17 And questioning Baruch, they said, Say now, how did you put all these words down in writing from his mouth?
I upitaše Baruha: “Hajde, objasni nam kako ti napisa sve te riječi.”
18 Then Baruch, answering, said, He said all these things to me by word of mouth, and I put them down with ink in the book.
Baruh će njima: “Jeremija mi je sve te riječi u pero kazivao, a ja sam ih crnilom u knjigu zapisao.”
19 Then the rulers said to Baruch, Go and put yourself in a safe place, you and Jeremiah, and let no man have knowledge of where you are.
Tada dostojanstvenici rekoše Baruhu: “Idi i sakrijte se, ti i Jeremija; nitko da ne zna gdje ste.”
20 Then they went into the open square to the king; but the book they put away in the room of Elishama the scribe; and they gave the king an account of all the words.
I, pohranivši svitak u dvorani pisara Elišame, pođoše kralju u dvorsko predvorje i sve mu ispripovjediše.
21 So the king sent Jehudi to get the book, and he took it from the room of Elishama the scribe. And Jehudi gave a reading of it in the hearing of the king and all the rulers who were by the king's side.
Kralj posla Jehudija da donese svitak: on ga donese iz sobe pisara Elišame i pročita ga kralju i dostojanstvenicima koji stajahu oko njega.
22 Now the king was seated in the winter house, and a fire was burning in the fireplace in front of him.
Kralj je sjedio u zimskim odajama - bijaše to u devetom mjesecu - a pred njim stajaše ražarena žeravnica.
23 And it came about that whenever Jehudi, in his reading, had got through three or four divisions, the king, cutting them with his penknife, put them into the fire, till all the book was burned up in the fire which was burning in the fireplace.
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.
24 But they had no fear and gave no signs of grief, not the king or any of his servants, after hearing all these words.
Ni kralj ni njegove sluge ne prestrašiše se niti razderaše haljina kad čuše te riječi,
25 And Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made a strong request to the king not to let the book be burned, but he would not give ear to them.
pa ipak Elnatan, Delaja i Gemarja moljahu kralja da ne spali svitak, ali on ih ne posluša.
26 And the king gave orders to Jerahmeel, the king's son, and Seraiah, the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah, the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet: but the Lord kept them safe.
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.
27 Then after the book, in which Baruch had put down the words of Jeremiah, had been burned by the king, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, saying,
Pošto je dakle kralj spalio svitak s riječima što ih Baruh bijaše zapisao po Jeremijinu kazivanju, dođe riječ Jahvina Jeremiji:
28 Take another book and put down in it all the words which were in the first book, which Jehoiakim, king of Judah, put into the fire.
“Uzmi drugi svitak i upiši u nj sve one riječi što bijahu na prvom svitku koji je Jojakim, kralj judejski, spalio.
29 And about Jehoiakim, king of Judah, you are to say, This is what the Lord has said: You have put this book into the fire, saying, Why have you put in it that the king of Babylon will certainly come, causing the destruction of this land and putting an end to every man and beast in it?
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?'
30 For this reason the Lord has said of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, He will have no son to take his place on the seat of David: his dead body will be put out to undergo the heat of the day and the cold of the night.
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.
31 And I will send punishment on him and on his seed and on his servants for their evil-doing; I will send on them and on the people of Jerusalem and the men of Judah, all the evil which I said against them, but they did not give ear.
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.”
32 Then Jeremiah took another book, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah, who put down in it, from the mouth of Jeremiah, all the words of the book which had been burned in the fire by Jehoiakim, king of Judah: and in addition a number of other words of the same sort.
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.
