Jeremiah 14
1 The worde of the Lord that came vnto Ieremiah, concerning the dearth.
Rijeè Gospodnja koja doðe Jeremiji o suši.
2 Iudah hath mourned, and the gates thereof are desolate, they haue bene brought to heauinesse vnto the grounde, and the cry of Ierusalem goeth vp.
Juda tuži, i vrata su mu žalosna; leže na zemlji u crno zaviti; vika iz Jerusalima podiže se.
3 And their nobles haue sent their inferiours to the water, who came to the welles, and founde no water: they returned with their vessels empty: they were ashamed and confounded, and couered their heads.
Najveæi izmeðu njih šalju najmanje na vodu; došavši na studence ne nalaze vode, vraæaju se s praznijem sudovima svojim, stide se i srame se i pokrivaju glavu svoju.
4 For the grounde was destroyed, because there was no rayne in the earth: the plowmen were ashamed, and couered their heads.
Zemlja je ispucala, jer ne bješe dažda na zemlji; zato se težaci stide i pokrivaju glavu svoju.
5 Yea, the hinde also calued in the fielde, and forsooke it, because there was no grasse.
I košuta u polju ostavlja mlade svoje, jer nema trave.
6 And the wilde asses did stande in the hygh places, and drew in their winde like dragons their eyes did faile, because there was no grasse.
I divlji magarci stojeæi na visovima vuku u se vjetar kao zmajevi, oèi im išèilješe, jer nema trave.
7 O Lord, though our iniquities testifie against vs, deale with vs according to thy name: for our rebellions are many, we sinned against thee.
Kad bezakonja naša svjedoèe na nas, Gospode, uèini radi imena svojega; jer je mnogo odmeta naših, tebi sagriješismo.
8 O the hope of Israel, the sauiour thereof in the time of trouble, why art thou as a strager in ye land, as one that passeth by to tary for a night?
Nade Izrailjev! spasitelju njegov u nevolji! zašto si kao tuðin u ovoj zemlji i kao putnik koji se uvrati da prenoæi?
9 Why art thou as a man astonied, and as a strong man that cannot helpe? yet thou, O Lord, art in the middes of vs, and thy Name is called vpon vs: forsake vs not.
Zašto si kao umoran èovjek, kao junak, koji ne može izbaviti? Ta, ti si usred nas, Gospode, i ime je tvoje prizvano na nas; nemoj nas ostaviti.
10 Thus saith the Lord vnto this people, Thus haue they delited to wander: they haue not refrained their feete, therefore the Lord hath no delight in them: but he will now remember their iniquitie, and visite their sinnes.
Ovako govori Gospod za narod ovaj: milo im je da se skitaju, ne ustavljaju nogu svojih, zato nijesu mili Gospodu; sada æe se opomenuti bezakonja njihova i pohodiæe grijehe njihove.
11 Then sayd the Lord vnto me, Thou shalt not pray to do this people good.
Potom reèe mi Gospod: ne moli se za taj narod da bi mu bilo dobro.
12 When they fast, I will not heare their cry, and when they offer burnt offering, and an oblation, I will not accept them: but I will consume them by the sworde, and by the famine and by the pestilence.
Ako æe i postiti, neæu uslišiti vike njihove; i ako æe prinijeti žrtve paljenice i dar, neæe mi to ugoditi, nego maèem i glaðu i pomorom pomoriæu ih.
13 Then answered I, Ah Lord God, beholde, the prophets say vnto them, Ye shall not see the sworde, neither shall famine come vpon you, but I wil giue you assured peace in this place.
Tada rekoh: oh, Gospode Gospode, evo, proroci im govore: neæete vidjeti maèa, i neæe biti gladi u vas, nego æu vam dati mir pouzdan na ovom mjestu.
14 Then the Lord said vnto me, The prophets prophecie lyes in my Name: I haue not sent them, neither did I command them, neither spake I vnto them, but they prophecie vnto you a false vision, and diuination, and vanitie, and deceitfulnes of their owne heart.
A Gospod mi reèe: laž prorokuju ti proroci u moje ime, nijesam ih poslao, niti sam im zapovjedio, niti sam im govorio; lažne utvare i gatanje i ništavilo i prijevaru srca svojega oni vam prorokuju.
15 Therefore thus saith the Lord, Concerning the prophets that prophecie in my Name, whom I haue not sent, yet they say, Sworde and famine shall not be in this land, by sword and famine shall those prophets be consumed.
Zato ovako veli Gospod za proroke koji prorokuju u moje ime a ja ih nijesam poslao, i govore: neæe biti maèa ni gladi u ovoj zemlji: od maèa i gladi izginuæe ti proroci.
16 And the people to whome these prophets doe prophecie, shalbe cast out in the streetes of Ierusalem, because of the famine, and the sword, and there shall be none to bury them, both they, and their wiues, and their sonnes, and their daughters: for I wil powre their wickednes vpon them.
A narod ovaj kojemu oni prorokuju biæe povaljan po ulicama Jerusalimskim od gladi i maèa, i neæe biti nikoga da ih pogrebe, njih, žene njihove i sinove njihove i kæeri njihove; tako æu izliti na njih zloæu njihovu.
17 Therefore thou shalt say this worde vnto them, Let mine eyes drop downe teares night and day without ceasing: for the virgine daughter of my people is destroyed with a great destruction, and with a sore grieuous plague.
Reci im dakle ovu rijeè: neka oèi moje liju suze danju i noæu i neka ne prestaju, jer djevojka kæi mojega naroda satr se veoma, od udarca preljuta.
18 For if I go into the field, behold the slaine with the sworde: and if I enter into the citie, behold them that are sicke for hunger also: moreouer the Prophet also and the Priest go a wandring into a land that they know not.
Ako izidem u polje, eto pobijenijeh maèem; ako uðem u grad, eto iznemoglijeh od gladi; jer i prorok i sveštenik otidoše u zemlju koje ne znaju.
19 Hast thou vtterly reiected Iudah, or hath thy soule abhorred Zion? why hast thou smitten vs, that we cannot be healed? Wee looked for peace, and there is no good, and for the time of health, and behold trouble.
Eda li si sasvijem odbacio Judu? eda li je omrzao duši tvojoj Sion? Zašto si nas udario tako da nam nema lijeka? Èekasmo mir ali nema dobra; i vrijeme da ozdravimo, a gle, strah.
20 We acknowledge, O Lord, our wickednesse and the iniquitie of our fathers: for we haue sinned against thee.
Priznajemo, Gospode, zloæu svoju, bezakonje otaca svojih, zgriješili smo ti.
21 Doe not abhorre vs: for thy Names sake cast not downe the throne of thy glory: remember and breake not thy couenant with vs.
Nemoj nas odvræi radi imena svojega; nemoj naružiti prijestola slave svoje, opomeni se zavjeta svojega s nama, nemoj ga ukinuti.
22 Are there any among the vanities of the Gentiles, that can giue raine? or can the heauens giue showres? is it not thou, O Lord our God? therefore we will waite vpon thee: for thou hast made all these things.
Ima li meðu taštinama u naroda koji da daje dažd? ili nebesa daju li sitan dažd? Nijesi li ti to, Gospode Bože naš? Zato tebe èekamo, jer ti èiniš sve to.
