Jeremiah 25

1 The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, the king of Judah (that is, the first year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon),

Rijeè koja doðe Jeremiji za sav narod Judin èetvrte godine Joakima sina Josijina cara Judina, a to je prva godina Navuhodonosora cara Vavilonskoga,

2 which Jeremiah the prophet spoke unto all the people of Judah and to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying:

Koju reèe Jeremija prorok svemu narodu Judinu i svijem stanovnicima Jerusalimskim, govoreæi:

3 From the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon, the king of Judah, even unto this day, these three and twenty years, the word of Jehovah hath come unto me, and I have spoken unto you, rising early and speaking; but ye have not hearkened.

Od trinaeste godine Josije sina Amonova cara Judina do danas, za ove dvadeset i tri godine, dolazi mi rijeè Gospodnja i govorih vam zarana jednako, ali ne poslušaste.

4 And Jehovah hath sent unto you all his servants the prophets, rising early and sending; but ye have not hearkened, nor inclined your ear to hear,

I sla vam Gospod sve sluge svoje proroke zarana jednako, ali ne poslušaste, niti prignuste uha svojega da biste èuli.

5 when they said, Turn again now every one from his evil way, and from the wickedness of your doings, and dwell in the land that Jehovah hath given unto you and to your fathers from of old even for ever.

I govorahu: vratite se svaki sa svojega puta zloga i od zloæe djela svojih, pa æete ostati u zemlji koju dade Gospod vama i ocima vašim od vijeka do vijeka.

6 And go not after other gods, to serve them and to worship them; and provoke me not to anger with the work of your hands; and I will do you no hurt.

I ne idite za drugim bogovima da im služite i da im se klanjate, i ne gnjevite me djelom ruku svojih, i neæu vam uèiniti zla.

7 But ye have not hearkened unto me, saith Jehovah; that ye might provoke me to anger with the work of your hands, to your own hurt.

Ali me ne poslušaste, govori Gospod, nego me gnjeviste djelom ruku svojih na svoje zlo.

8 Therefore thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Because ye have not listened to my words,

Zato ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: što ne poslušaste mojih rijeèi,

9 behold, I will send and take all the families of the north, saith Jehovah, and [I will send] to Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants thereof, and against all these nations round about; and I will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and perpetual wastes.

Evo, ja æu poslati po sve narode sjeverne, govori Gospod, i po Navuhodonosora cara Vavilonskoga slugu svojega, i dovešæu ih na tu zemlju i na stanovnike njezine, i na sve te narode okolne, koje æu zatrti, i uèiniæu da budu èudo i potsmijeh i pustoš vjeèna.

10 And I will cause to perish from them the voice of mirth and the voice of joy, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones and the light of the lamp.

I uèiniæu da nestane meðu njima glasa radosna i glasa vesela, glasa ženikova i glasa nevjestina, lupe od žrvanja i svjetlosti od žiška.

11 And this whole land shall become a waste, an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.

I sva æe ta zemlja biti pustoš i èudo, i ti æe narodi služiti caru Vavilonskom sedamdeset godina.

12 And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, [that] I will visit on the king of Babylon and on that nation, saith Jehovah, their iniquity, and on the land of the Chaldeans, and I will make it perpetual desolations.

A kad se navrši sedamdeset godina, onda æu pohoditi cara Vavilonskoga i onaj narod, govori Gospod, za bezakonje njihovo, i zemlju Haldejsku, i obratiæu je u pustoš vjeènu.

13 And I will bring upon that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah hath prophesied against all the nations.

I pustiæu na tu zemlju sve što sam govorio o njoj, sve što je napisano u ovoj knjizi, što prorokova Jeremija za sve narode.

14 For many nations and great kings shall serve themselves of them also; and I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the work of their hands.

Jer æe veliki narodi i silni carevi i njih pokoriti; tada æu im platiti po djelima njihovijem i po onom što su èinili rukama svojim.

15 For thus hath Jehovah the God of Israel said unto me: Take the cup of the wine of this fury at my hand, and cause all the nations to whom I send thee to drink it.

Jer ovako mi reèe Gospod Bog Izrailjev: uzmi iz moje ruke èašu vina, ovoga gnjeva, i napoj iz nje sve narode ka kojima te ja pošljem,

16 And they shall drink, and reel to and fro, and be mad, because of the sword that I will send among them.

Neka piju i smetu se i polude od oštroga maèa koji æu ja poslati meðu njih.

17 And I took the cup at Jehovah's hand, and made all the nations to drink, to whom Jehovah had sent me:

I uzeh èašu iz ruke Gospodu, i napojih sve te narode, ka kojima me posla Gospod:

18 Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, and the kings thereof, and the princes thereof, to make them a waste, an astonishment, a hissing, and a curse, as it is this day;

Jerusalim i gradove Judine i careve njegove i knezove njegove, da budu pustoš i èudo i potsmijeh i uklin, kao što je danas,

19 Pharaoh king of Egypt, and his servants, and his princes, and all his people;

Faraona cara Misirskoga i sluge njegove i knezove njegove i sav narod njegov,

20 and all the mingled people, and all the kings of the land of Uz, and all the kings of the land of the Philistines, and Ashkelon, and Gazah, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod;

I svu mješavinu, i sve careve zemlje Uza, sve careve zemlje Filistejske, i Askalon i Gazu i Akaron i ostatak od Azota,

21 Edom, and Moab, and the children of Ammon;

Edomce i Moavce i sinove Amonove,

22 and all the kings of Tyre, and all the kings of Zidon, and the kings of the isles that are beyond the sea;

I sve careve Tirske i sve careve Sidonske i careve na ostrvima preko mora,

23 Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, and all that have the corners [of their beard] cut off;

Dedana i Temu i Vuza, i sve koji se s kraja strigu,

24 and all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the mingled people that dwell in the desert;

I sve careve Arapske i sve careve od mješavine koji žive u pustinji,

25 and all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes;

I sve careve Zimrijske, i sve careve Elamske, i sve careve Midske,

26 and all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world, which are upon the face of the earth; and the king of Sheshach shall drink after them.

I sve careve sjeverne, koji su blizu i koji su daleko, kako jednoga tako drugoga, i sva carstva zemaljska što su po zemlji; a car Sisaški piæe poslije njih.

27 And thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Drink, and be drunken, and vomit, and fall, and rise no more, because of the sword that I will send among you.

I reci im: ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama Bog Izrailjev: pijte i opijte se, i bljujte i padajte, da ne ustanete od maèa koji æu pustiti meðu vas.

28 And it shall be, if they refuse to take the cup from thy hand to drink, then shalt thou say unto them, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Ye shall certainly drink.

Ako li ne bi htjeli uzeti èaše iz ruke tvoje da piju, tada im reci: ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: zaista æete piti.

29 For behold, I begin to bring evil on the city that is called by my name, and should ye be altogether unpunished? Ye shall not be unpunished; for I call for a sword upon all the inhabitants of the earth, saith Jehovah of hosts.

Jer evo poèinjem puštati zlo na grad koji se naziva mojim imenom, a vi li æete ostati bez kara? neæete ostati bez kara, jer æu dozvati maè na sve stanovnike zemaljske, govori Gospod nad vojskama.

30 And thou, prophesy unto them all these words, and say unto them, Jehovah will roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation; he will mightily roar upon his dwelling-place, he will give a shout, as they that tread [the vintage], against all the inhabitants of the earth.

Ti dakle prorokuj im sve ove rijeèi i reci im: Gospod æe s visine riknuti, i iz stana svetinje svoje pustiæe glas svoj, silno æe riknuti iz stana svojega, kao oni što gaze grožðe podignuæe viku na sve stanovnike zemaljske.

31 The noise shall come to the end of the earth: for Jehovah hath a controversy with the nations, he entereth into judgment with all flesh; as for the wicked, he will give them up to the sword, saith Jehovah.

Proæi æe graja do kraja zemlje, jer raspru ima Gospod s narodima, sudi se sa svakim tijelom, bezbožnike æe dati pod maè, govori Gospod.

32 Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great storm shall be raised up from the uttermost parts of the earth.

Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: evo, nevolja æe poæi od naroda do naroda, i velik æe se vihor podignuti od krajeva zemaljskih.

33 And the slain of Jehovah shall [be] at that day from [one] end of the earth even unto the [other] end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the face of the ground.

I u onaj æe dan biti od kraja do kraja zemlje pobijeni od Gospoda, neæe biti oplakani, niti æe se pokupiti i pogrepsti, biæe gnoj po zemlji.

34 Howl, ye shepherds, and cry; and wallow yourselves [in the dust], noble ones of the flock: for the days of your slaughter are accomplished, and I will disperse you; and ye shall fall like a precious vessel.

Ridajte, pastiri, i vièite i valjajte se po prahu, glavari stadu, jer se navršiše vaši dani da budete poklani, i da se razaspete, i pašæete kao skupocjen sud.

35 And refuge shall perish from the shepherds, and escape from the noble ones of the flock.

I neæe biti utoèišta pastirima, ni izbavljenja glavarima od stada.

36 There shall be a voice of the cry of the shepherds, and a howling of the noble ones of the flock: for Jehovah layeth waste their pasture;

Vikaæe pastiri i ridaæe glavari od stada, jer æe potrti Gospod pašu njihovu.

37 and the peaceable enclosures shall be desolated, because of the fierce anger of Jehovah.

I razvaliæe se mirni torovi od žestokoga gnjeva Gospodnjega.

38 He hath forsaken his covert as a young lion; for their land is a desolation because of the fierceness of the oppressor, and because of his fierce anger.

Kao laviæ ostavio je šator svoj, jer æe zemlja njihova opustjeti od žestine nasilnikove i od ljutoga gnjeva njegova.
