Jeremiah 11
1 The word that came from the Lord to Jeremiah, saying:
Rijeè koja doðe Jeremiji od Gospoda govoreæi:
2 “Listen to the words of this covenant, and speak to the men of Judah and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Slušajte rijeèi ovoga zavjeta, i kazujte ljudima Judinijem i stanovnicima Jerusalimskim.
3 And you shall say to them: Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Cursed is the man who will not listen to the words of this covenant,
I reci im: ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: proklet da je ko ne posluša rijeèi ovoga zavjeta,
4 which I commanded to your fathers in the day when I led them away from the land of Egypt, away from the iron furnace, saying: Listen to my voice, and do all that I command you, and then you will be my people and I will be your God.
Koji zapovjedih ocima vašim kad ih izvedoh iz zemlje Misirske iz peæi gvozdene govoreæi: slušajte glas moj i tvorite ovo sve kako vam zapovijedam, pa æete mi biti narod i ja æu vam biti Bog,
5 So shall I uphold the oath which I swore to your fathers, that I would give them a land flowing with milk and honey, just as it is this day.” And I answered by saying: “Amen, O Lord.”
Da bih ispunio zakletvu kojom se zakleh ocima vašim da æu im dati zemlju u kojoj teèe mlijeko i med, kako se vidi danas. A ja odgovorih i rekoh: amin, Gospode.
6 And the Lord said to me: “Shout all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying: Listen to the words of the covenant, and do them.
Potom reèe mi Gospod: kazuj sve ove rijeèi po gradovima Judinijem i po ulicama Jerusalimskim govoreæi: slušajte rijeèi ovoga zavjeta, i izvršujte ih.
7 For when testing, I tested your fathers in the day when I led them away from the land of Egypt, even until this day. Rising early, I tested them, and I said: Listen to my voice.
Jer tvrdo zasvjedoèavah ocima vašim otkad ih izvedoh iz zemlje Misirske do danas, zarana jednako govoreæi: slušajte glas moj.
8 But they did not listen, nor did they incline their ear. Instead, each one of them walked in the depravity of his own evil heart. And so, I brought over them all the words of this covenant, which I instructed them to do. But they would not do them.”
Ali ne poslušaše i ne prignuše uha svojega, nego hodiše svaki za mislima zloga srca svojega; zato pustih na njih sve rijeèi ovoga zavjeta, koji zapovjedih da vrše a oni ne vršiše.
9 And the Lord said to me: “A conspiracy has been found among the men of Judah and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Tada mi reèe Gospod: buna je meðu ljudima Judinijem i stanovnicima Jerusalimskim.
10 They have returned to the former iniquities of their fathers, who refused to listen to my words. And likewise, they have gone after strange gods, so that they may serve them. The house of Israel and the house of Judah have treated as void my covenant, which I made with their fathers.
Vratili su se na bezakonja starijeh svojih, koji ne htješe slušati mojih rijeèi, i idu za drugim bogovima, te im služe; dom Izrailjev i dom Judin pokvariše zavjet moj, koji uèinih s ocima njihovijem.
11 For this reason, thus says the Lord: Behold, I will lead evils over them, from which they will not be able to escape. And they will cry out to me, and I will not heed them.
Zato ovako veli Gospod: evo, ja æu pustiti na njih zlo, iz kojega neæe moæi izaæi, i vapiæe k meni, ali ih neæu uslišiti.
12 And the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem will go forth, and they will cry out to the gods, to whom they offer libations, and they will not save them in the time of their affliction.
Tada æe gradovi Judini i stanovnici Jerusalimski iæi i vapiti k bogovima kojima kade, ali im neæe pomoæi u nevolji njihovoj.
13 For according to the number of your cities, so were your gods, O Judah. And according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem, so did you establish altars of confusion, altars to offer libations to Baal.
Jer imaš bogova, Judo, koliko gradova, i koliko ima ulica u Jerusalimu, toliko podigoste oltara sramotnijeh, oltara, da kadite Valu.
14 Therefore, you should not choose to pray for this people, and you should not take up praise and petitioning on their behalf. For I will not heed them in the time of their outcry to me, in the time of their affliction.
Ti se dakle ne moli za taj narod, i ne podiži vike ni molbe za njih, jer ih neæu uslišiti kad zavapiju k meni u nevolji svojoj.
15 Why has my beloved wrought great wickedness in my house? How can the holy flesh take away from you your wickedness, in which you have gloried?
Što æe mili moj u domu mom, kad èini grdilo s mnogima, i sveto meso otide od tebe, i veseliš se kad zlo èiniš?
16 The Lord has called your name: a beautiful, fruitful, splendid, and productive olive tree. At the voice of a word, a great fire was kindled in it, and its greenery was burned up.
Gospod te nazva maslinom zelenom, lijepom radi dobroga roda; ali s hukom velikoga vjetra raspali oganj oko nje, i grane joj se polomiše.
17 And the Lord of hosts, who planted you, has pronounced an evil against you, concerning the evils of the house of Israel and the house of Judah, which they have done to themselves so as to provoke me, by offering libations to Baal.”
Jer Gospod nad vojskama, koji te je posadio, izreèe zlo po te, za zloæu doma Izrailjeva i doma Judina, koju èiniše meðu sobom da bi me razgnjevili kadeæi Valu.
18 But you, O Lord, have revealed this to me, and I have understood. Then you displayed their efforts to me.
Gospod mi objavi, te znam; ti mi pokaza djela njihova.
19 And I was like a meek lamb, who is being carried to be a victim. And I did not realize that they had devised plans against me, saying: “Let us place wood upon his bread, and let us eradicate him from the land of the living, and let his name no longer be remembered.”
A ja bijah kao jagnje i tele koje se vodi na klanje, jer ne znadijah da se dogovaraju na me: oborimo drvo s rodom njegovijem, i istrijebimo ga iz zemlje živijeh, da mu se ime ne spominje više.
20 But you, O Lord of hosts, who judges justly, and who tests the temperament and the heart, let me see your vengeance against them. For I have revealed my case to you.
Ali, Gospode nad vojskama, sudijo pravedni, koji ispituješ bubrege i srce, daj da vidim osvetu tvoju na njima, jer tebi kazah parbu svoju.
21 “Because of this, thus says the Lord to the men of Anathoth, who are seeking your life, and who are saying: ‘You shall not prophesy in the name of the Lord, and you shall not die by our hands.’
Zato ovako veli Gospod za Anatoæane, koji traže dušu tvoju govoreæi: ne prorokuj u ime Gospodnje, da ne pogineš od naših ruku;
22 Because of this, thus says the Lord of hosts: Behold, I will visit upon them. Their young men will die by the sword. Their sons and their daughters will die by famine.
Zato ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: evo, ja æu ih pohoditi; mladiæi æe njihovi izginuti od maèa, sinovi njihovi i kæeri njihove izginuæe od gladi.
23 And there will be nothing left of them. For I will lead an evil over the men of Anathoth: the year of their visitation.”
I neæe biti od njih ostatka; jer æu pustiti zlo na Anatoæane kad ih pohodim.
