Ezra 9
1 And when these things were finished, the princes drew near to me, saying, The people of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites, have not separated themselves from the people of the lands in their abominations, [even] the Chananite, the Ethite, the Pherezite, the Jebusite, the Ammonite, the Moabite, and the Moserite and the Amorite.
A kad se to svrši, pristupiše k meni knezovi govoreæi: narod Izrailjev i sveštenici i Leviti nijesu se odvojili od naroda zemaljskih radi gadova njihovijeh, od Hananeja, Heteja, Ferezeja, Jevuseja, Amonaca, Moavaca, Misiraca i Amoreja.
2 For they have taken of their daughters for themselves and their sons; and the holy seed has passed amongst the nations of the lands, and the hand of the rulers [has been] first in this transgression.
Jer uzeše kæeri njihove sebi i sinovima svojim, te se pomiješa sveto sjeme s narodima zemaljskim; i ruka sveštenièka i glavarska bješe prva u tom prijestupu.
3 And when I heard this thing, I tore my garments, and trembled, and plucked [some] of the hairs of my head and of my beard, and sat down mourning.
I kad èuh to, razdrijeh haljinu svoju i plašt svoj, i skuboh kosu s glave svoje i bradu svoju, i sjedoh tužan.
4 Then there assembled to me all that followed the word of the God of Israel, on account of the transgression of the captivity; and I remained mourning until the evening sacrifice.
I skupiše se k meni svi koji se bojahu rijeèi Boga Izrailjeva za prijestup onijeh koji doðoše iz ropstva, a ja sjeðah tužan do veèernje žrtve.
5 And at the evening sacrifice I rose up from my humiliation; and when I had tore my garments, then I trembled, and I bow myself on my knees, and spread out my hands to the Lord God,
A o veèernjoj žrtvi ustah od jada svojega u razdrtoj haljini i plaštu, i klekavši na koljena svoja raširih ruke svoje ka Gospodu Bogu svojemu,
6 and I said, O Lord, I am ashamed and confounded, O my God, to lift up my face to you: for our transgressions have abounded over our head, and our trespasses have increased even to heaven.
I rekoh: Bože moj! stidim se i sramim se podignuti oèi svoje k tebi, Bože moj; jer bezakonja naša namnožiše se svrh glave i krivice naše narastoše do neba.
7 From the days of our fathers we have been in a great trespass until this day: and because of our iniquities we, and our kings, and our children, have been delivered into the hand of the kings of the Gentiles by the sword, and by captivity, and by spoil, and with shame of our face, as at this day.
Od vremena otaca svojih do danas pod krivicom smo velikom, i za bezakonja svoja bismo predani mi i carevi naši i sveštenici naši u ruke carevima zemaljskim pod maè, u ropstvo, u grabež i u sramotu, kao što se vidi danas.
8 And now our God has dealt mercifully with us, so as to leave us to escape, and to give us an establishment in the place of his sanctuary, to enlighten our eyes, and to give a little quickening in our servitude.
A sada zaèas doðe nam milost od Gospoda Boga našega, te nam ostavi ostatak i dade nam klin u svetom mjestu svom da bi prosvijetlio oèi naše Bog naš i dao nam da malo odahnemo u ropstvu svojem.
9 For we are slaves, yet in our servitude the Lord our God has not deserted us; and he has extended favour to us in the sight of the kings of the Persians, to give us a quickening, that they should raise up the house of our God, and restore the desolate places of it, and to give us a fence in Juda and Jerusalem.
Jer roblje smo, ali u ropstvu našem nije nas ostavio Bog naš, nego nam dade te naðosmo milost pred carevima Persijskim davši nam da odahnemo da podignemo dom Boga svojega i opravimo pustoline njegove, i davši nam ogradu u Judeji u Jerusalimu.
10 What shall we say, our God, after this? for we have forsaken your commandments,
Sada dakle šta da kažemo, Bože naš, poslije toga? jer ostavismo zapovijesti tvoje,
11 which you have given us by the hand of your servants the prophets, saying, The land, into which you go to inherit it, is a land subject to disturbance by the removal of the people of the nations for their abominations, wherewith they have filled it from one end to the other by their uncleanness.
Koje si zapovjedio preko sluga svojih proroka govoreæi: zemlja u koju idete da je naslijedite zemlja je neèista od neèistote naroda zemaljskih, s gadova njihovijeh, kojima je napuniše od kraja do kraja u neèistoti svojoj.
12 And now give not your daughters to their sons, and take not of their daughters for your sons, neither shall you seek their peace or their good for ever: that you may be strong, and eat the good of the land, and transmit it as an inheritance to your children for ever.
I zato kæeri svojih ne dajite za sinove njihove, i kæeri njihovijeh ne uzimajte za sinove svoje, i ne tražite mira njihova ni dobra njihova dovijeka da biste se okrijepili i jeli dobra one zemlje i ostavili je u našljedstvo sinovima svojim dovijeka.
13 And after all that is come upon us because of our evil deeds, and our great trespass, [it is clear] that there is none such as our God, for you has lightly visited our iniquities, and given us deliverance;
I poslije svega što doðe na nas za zla djela naša i za veliku krivicu našu, jer si nas, Bože naš, pokarao manje nego što grijesi naši zaslužuju, i dao si nam ostatak ovaki,
14 whereas we have repeatedly broken your commandments, and intermarried with the people of the lands: be not very angry with us to [our] utter destruction, so that there should be no remnant or escaping one.
Eda li æemo opet prestupati zapovijesti tvoje i prijateljiti se s ovijem gadnijem narodima? Ne bi li se razgnjevio na nas dokle nas ne bi potro da nijedan ne ostane i ne izbavi se?
15 O Lord God of Israel, you [are] righteous; for we remain [yet] escaped, as at this day: behold, we [are] before you in our trespasses: for we can’t stand before you on this account.
Gospode Bože Izrailjev! ti si pravedan, jer ostasmo ostatak, kao što se vidi danas. Evo mi smo pred tobom s krivicom svojom, premda se ne može stajati pred tobom za to.
