< Lamentations 1 >

1 How doth the city sit solitary [that] was full of people! She that was great among the nations is become as a widow; the princess among the provinces is become tributary!
Kako sjedi sam, posta kao udovica, grad koji bješe pun naroda! velik meðu narodima, glava meðu zemljama potpade pod danak!
2 She weepeth sore in the night, and her tears are on her cheeks; among all her lovers she hath no comforter; all her friends have dealt treacherously with her, they are become her enemies.
Jednako plaèe noæu, i suze su mu na obrazima, nema nikoga od svijeh koji ga ljubljahu da ga potješi; svi ga prijatelji njegovi iznevjeriše, postaše mu neprijatelji.
3 Judah is gone into captivity because of affliction, and because of great servitude; she dwelleth among the nations, she findeth no rest: all her pursuers have overtaken her within the straits.
Iseli se Juda od muke i ljutoga ropstva; sjedi meðu narodima, ne nalazi mira; svi koji ga goniše stigoše ga u tjesnacu.
4 The ways of Zion do mourn, because none come to the solemn assembly: all her gates are desolate; her priests sigh, her virgins are in grief; and as for her, she is in bitterness.
Putovi Sionski tuže, jer niko ne ide na praznik; sva su vrata njegova pusta, sveštenici njegovi uzdišu, djevojke su njegove žalosne, i sam je jadan.
5 Her adversaries have become the head, her enemies prosper; for Jehovah hath afflicted her for the multitude of her transgressions: her children are gone into captivity before the adversary.
Protivnici njegovi postaše glava, neprijateljima je njegovijem dobro; jer ga Gospod ucvijeli za mnoštvo bezakonja njegova; djeca njegova idu u ropstvo pred neprijateljem.
6 And from the daughter of Zion all her splendour is departed: her princes are become like harts that find no pasture; and they are gone without strength before the pursuer.
I otide od kæeri Sionske sva slava njezina; knezovi su njezini kao jeleni koji ne nalaze paše; idu nemoæni pred onijem koji ih goni.
7 In the days of her affliction and of her wanderings, since her people fell into the hand of an adversary, and none did help her, Jerusalem remembereth all her precious things which she had in the days of old: the adversaries have seen her, they mock at her ruin.
Opominje se Jerusalim u muci svojoj i u jadu svom svijeh milina što je imao od starine, kad pada narod njegov od ruke neprijateljeve a nikoga nema da mu pomože; neprijatelji gledaju ga i smiju se prestanku njegovu.
8 Jerusalem hath grievously sinned; therefore is she removed as an impurity: all that honoured her despise her because they have seen her nakedness; and she sigheth, and turneth backward.
Teško sagriješi Jerusalim, zato posta kao neèista žena; svi koji su ga poštovali preziru ga, jer vidješe golotinju njegovu; a on uzdiše, i okreæe se natrag.
9 Her impurity was in her skirts, she remembered not her latter end; and she came down wonderfully: she hath no comforter. Jehovah, behold my affliction; for the enemy hath magnified himself.
Neèistota mu bješe na skutovima; nije mislio na kraj svoj; pao je za èudo a nema nikoga da ga potješi. Pogledaj, Gospode, muku moju, jer se neprijatelj ponio.
10 The adversary hath spread out his hand upon all her precious things; for she hath seen the nations enter into her sanctuary, concerning whom thou didst command that they should not enter into thy congregation.
Neprijatelj poseže rukom na sve drage stvari njegove, i on gleda kako narodi ulaze u svetinju njegovu, za koje si zapovjedio: da ne dolaze na sabor tvoj.
11 All her people sigh, they seek bread; they have given their precious things for food to revive [their] soul. See, Jehovah, and consider, for I am become vile.
Sav narod njegov uzdiše tražeæi hljeba, daju dragocjene stvari svoje za jelo da okrijepe dušu. Pogledaj, Gospode, i vidi kako sam poništen.
12 Is it nothing to you, all ye that pass by? Behold, and see if there be any sorrow like unto my sorrow, which is done unto me, whom Jehovah hath afflicted in the day of his fierce anger.
Zar vam nije stalo, svi koji prolazite ovuda? pogledajte i vidite, ima li bola kakav je moj, koji je meni dopao, kojim me ucvijeli Gospod u dan žestokoga gnjeva svojega.
13 From on high hath he sent fire into my bones, and it prevaileth against them; he hath spread a net for my feet; he hath turned me back; he hath made me desolate [and] faint all the day.
S visine pusti oganj u kosti moje, koji ih osvoji; razape mrežu nogama mojima, obori me nauznako, pustoši me, te po vas dan tužim.
14 The yoke of my transgressions is bound by his hand: they are wreathed, they are come up upon my neck; he hath made my strength to fail; the Lord hath delivered me into hands out of which I am not able to rise up.
Svezan je rukom njegovom jaram od grijeha mojih, usukani su i doðoše mi na vrat; obori silu moju; predade me Gospod u ruke, iz kojih se ne mogu podignuti.
15 The Lord hath cast down all my mighty men in the midst of me; he hath called an assembly against me to crush my young men; the Lord hath trodden as a winepress the virgin daughter of Judah.
Polazi Gospod sve junake moje usred mene, sazva na me sabor da potre mladiæe moje; kao grožðe u kaci izgazi Gospod djevojku kæer Judinu.
16 For these things I weep; mine eye, mine eye runneth down with water: for the comforter that should revive my soul is far from me; my children are desolate, for the enemy hath prevailed.
Zato ja plaèem, oèi moje, oèi moje liju suze, jer je daleko od mene utješitelj, koji bi ukrijepio dušu moju; sinovi moji propadoše, jer nadvlada neprijatelj.
17 Zion spreadeth forth her hands; there is none to comfort her; Jehovah hath commanded concerning Jacob, [that] his adversaries [should be] round about him; Jerusalem is as an impurity among them.
Sion širi ruke svoje, nema nikoga da ga tješi; Gospod zapovjedi za Jakova, te ga opkoliše neprijatelji; Jerusalim posta meðu njima kao neèista žena.
18 Jehovah is righteous; for I have rebelled against his commandment. Hear, I pray you, all ye peoples, and behold my sorrow. My virgins and my young men are gone into captivity.
Pravedan je Gospod, jer se suprotih zapovijesti njegovoj; èujte, svi narodi, i vidite bol moj; djevojke moje i mladiæi moji otidoše u ropstvo.
19 I called for my lovers, they have deceived me; my priests and mine elders have expired in the city, while they sought them food to revive their soul.
Zvah prijatelje svoje, oni me prevariše; sveštenici moji i starješine moje pomriješe u gradu tražeæi hrane da okrijepe dušu svoju.
20 See, Jehovah, for I am in distress, my bowels are troubled; my heart is turned within me, for I have grievously rebelled: without, the sword hath bereaved [me], within, it is as death.
Pogledaj, Gospode, jer mi je tuga, utroba mi se uskolebala, srce se moje prevræe u meni, jer se mnogo suprotih; na polju uèini me sirotom maè, a kod kuæe sama smrt.
21 They have heard that I sigh: I have no comforter: all mine enemies have heard of my calamity; they are glad that thou hast done it. Thou wilt bring the day that thou hast called, and they shall be like unto me.
Èuju gdje uzdišem, ali nema nikoga da me potješi; svi neprijatelji moji èuše za nesreæu moju i raduju se što si to uèinio; dovešæeš dan koji si oglasio, te æe oni biti kao ja.
22 Let all their wickedness come before thee; and do unto them, as thou hast done unto me for all my transgressions: for my sighs are many, and my heart is faint.
Neka izaðe preda te sva zloæa njihova, i uèini kao što si uèinio meni za sve grijehe moje; jer je mnogo uzdaha mojih i srce je moje žalosno.
