Jeremiah 2
1 Moreover, the woorde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Opet mi doðe rijeè Gospodnja govoreæi:
2 Goe, and crie in the eares of Ierusalem, saying, Thus sayeth the Lord, I remember thee, with the kindenes of thy youth and the loue of thy marriage, when thou wentest after me in the wildernes in a lande that was not sowen.
Idi i vièi Jerusalimu da èuje i govori: ovako veli Gospod: opominjem te se po milosti u mladosti tvojoj i po ljubavi o vjeridbi tvojoj, kad iðaše za mnom po pustinji, i po zemlji gdje se ne sije.
3 Israel was as a thing halowed vnto the Lord, and his first fruits: all they that eat it, shall offend: euil shall come vpon them, saith the Lord.
Izrailj bješe svetinja Gospodu i prvina od rodova njegovijeh; koji je jeðahu svi bijahu krivi, zlo dolažaše na njih, veli Gospod.
4 Heare ye the word of the Lord, O house of Iaakob, and all the families of the house of Israel.
Èujte rijeè Gospodnju, dome Jakovljev i sve porodice doma Izrailjeva.
5 Thus sayeth the Lord, What iniquitie haue your fathers founde in mee, that they are gone farre from mee, and haue walked after vanitie, and are become vaine?
Ovako veli Gospod: kaku nepravdu naðoše oci vaši u mene, te otstupiše od mene, i pristaše za ništavilom, i postaše ništavi?
6 For they saide not, Where is the Lord that brought vs vp out of the lande of Egypt? that led vs through the wildernesse, through a desert, and waste land, through a drie land, and by the shadow of death, by a land that no man passed through, and where no man dwelt?
I ne rekoše: gdje je Gospod koji nas je izveo iz zemlje Misirske, koji nas je vodio po pustinji, po zemlji pustoj i punoj propasti, po zemlji suhoj i gdje je sjen smrtni, po zemlji preko koje niko nije hodio i u kojoj niko nije živio?
7 And I brought you into a plentifull countrey, to eat the fruit thereof, and the commodities of the same: but when yee entred, yee defiled my land, and made mine heritage an abomination.
I kad vas dovedoh u zemlju rodnu da jedete rod njezin i dobra njezina, došavši oskvrniste zemlju moju i od našljedstva mojega naèiniste gad.
8 The priests said not, Where is the Lord? and they that should minister the Lawe, knewe me not: the pastours also offended against me, and the Prophets prophesied in Baal, and went after things that did not profite.
Sveštenici ne rekoše: gdje je Gospod? I koji se bave zakonom ne poznaše me, i pastiri odustaše me, i proroci prorokovaše Valom i idoše za stvarima zaludnijem.
9 Wherefore I wil yet plead with you, saith the Lord, and I will pleade with your childrens children.
Zato æu se još preti s vama, veli Gospod, i sa sinovima sinova vaših preæu se.
10 For goe ye to the yles of Chittim, and beholde, and sende vnto Kedar. and take diligent heede, and see whether there be such things.
Jer proðite ostrva Kitimska i vidite, i pošljite u Kidar, i razgledajte dobro, i vidite je li bilo tako što:
11 Hath any nation changed their gods, which yet are no gods? but my people haue chaged their glorie, for that which doeth not profite.
Je li koji narod promijenio bogove, ako i nijesu bogovi? a moj narod promijeni slavu svoju na stvar zaludnu.
12 O yee heauens, be astonied at this: bee afraid and vtterly confounded, sayeth the Lord.
Èudite se tome, nebesa, i zgrozite se i upropastite se! veli Gospod.
13 For my people haue committed two euils: they haue forsaken mee the fountaine of liuing waters, to digge them pittes, euen broken pittes, that can holde no water.
Jer dva zla uèini moj narod: ostaviše mene, izvor žive vode, i iskopaše sebi studence, studence isprovaljivane, koji ne mogu da drže vode.
14 Is Israel a seruaunt, or is hee borne in the house? why then is he spoiled?
Je li Izrailj rob? je li rob u kuæi roðen? zašto posta grabež?
15 The lions roared vpon him and yelled, and they haue made his land waste: his cities are burnt without an inhabitant.
Rikaše na nj laviæi i dizaše glas svoj, i obratiše zemlju njegovu u pustoš; gradovi su mu popaljeni, te nema nikoga da živi u njima.
16 Also the children of Noph and Tahapanes haue broken thine head.
I sinovi Nofski i Tafneski opasoše ti tjeme.
17 Hast not thou procured this vnto thy selfe, because thou hast forsaken the Lord thy God, when he led thee by the way?
Nijesi li to sam sebi uèinio ostaviv Gospoda Boga svojega kad te voðaše putem?
18 And what hast thou now to do in the way of Egypt? to drinke the water of Nilus? or what makest thou in the way of Asshur? to drinke the water of the Riuer?
A sada što æe ti put Misirski da piješ vode Siorske? što li æe ti put Asirski da piješ vode iz rijeke?
19 Thine owne wickednes shall correct thee, and thy turnings backe shall reprooue thee: know therefore and beholde, that it is an euil thing, and bitter, that thou hast forsaken the Lord thy God, and that my feare is not in thee, sayeth the Lord God of hostes.
Tvoja æe te zloæa pokarati i tvoje æe te odmetanje prekoriti. Poznaj dakle i vidi da je zlo i gorko što si ostavio Gospoda Boga svojega i što nema straha mojega u tebi, veli Gospod Gospod nad vojskama.
20 For of olde time I haue broken thy yoke, and burst thy bondes, and thou saidest, I will no more transgresse, but like an harlot thou runnest about vpon al hie hilles, and vnder all greene trees.
Jer davno izlomih jaram tvoj i raskidoh sveze tvoje, i ti reèe: neæu biti sluga; a na svaki visoki hum i pod svako zeleno drvo ideš da se kurvaš.
21 Yet I had planted thee, a noble vine, whose plants were all natural: howe then art thou turned vnto me into the plants of a strange vine?
Ja te posadih lozu izabranu, sve sjeme istinito; pa kako mi se promijeni i izmetnu se odvoda od tuðe loze?
22 Though thou wash thee with nitre, and take thee much sope, yet thine iniquitie is marked before me, sayeth the Lord God.
Da se izmiješ salitrom i uzmeš mnogo sapuna, opet æe se poznavati bezakonje tvoje preda mnom, veli Gospod Gospod.
23 Howe canst thou say, I am not polluted, neither haue I followed Baalim? beholde thy waies in the valley, and know, what thou hast done: thou art like a swift dromedarie, that runneth by his waies.
Kako možeš reæi: nijesam se oskvrnio, nijesam išao za Valima? Pogledaj put svoj po dolu; poznaj šta si uèinila, brza kamilo, koja ostavljaš znake na svojim putovima.
24 And as a wilde asse, vsed to the wildernesse, that snuffeth vp the winde by occasion at her pleasure: who can turne her backe? all they that seeke her, will not wearie themselues, but wil finde her in her moneth.
Kao divlja magarica, koja je navikla na pustinju i po želji duše svoje vuèe u se vjetar, kad navali, ko æe je vratiti? koji je traže neæe se umoriti, naæi æe je u mjesecu njezinu.
25 Keepe thou thy feete from barenes, and thy throte from thirst: but thou saidest desperately, No, for I haue loued strangers, and them will I follow.
Èuvaj nogu svoju, da nije bosa, i grlo svoje, da ne žedni. Ali ti veliš: od toga nema ništa; ne, jer ljubim tuðe, i za njima æu iæi.
26 As the theefe is ashamed, when he is foud, so is the house of Israel ashamed, they, their kings, their princes and their Priests, and their Prophets,
Kao što se lupež posrami kad se uhvati, tako æe se posramiti dom Izrailjev, oni, carevi njihovi, knezovi njihovi, i sveštenici njihovi i proroci njihovi,
27 Saying to a tree, Thou art my father, and to a stone, Thou hast begotten me: for they haue turned their back vnto me, and not their face: but in ye time of their troble they wil say, Arise, and help vs.
Koji govore drvetu: ti si otac moj; i kamenu: ti si me rodio; jer mi okrenuše leða a ne lice; a kad su u nevolji govore: ustani i izbavi nas.
28 But where are thy gods, that thou hast made thee? let them arise, if they can helpe thee in the time of thy trouble: for according to the nomber of thy cities, are thy gods, O Iudah.
A gdje su bogovi tvoji koje si naèinio sebi? neka ustanu, ako te mogu izbaviti kad si u nevolji, jer imaš, Juda, bogova koliko gradova.
29 Wherefore wil ye pleade with me? ye all haue rebelled against me, sayeth the Lord.
Zašto hoæete da se pravdate sa mnom? vi ste se svi odmetnuli od mene, veli Gospod.
30 I haue smitten your children in vaine, they receiued no correction: your owne sworde hath deuoured your Prophets like a destroying lyon.
Uzalud bih sinove vaše, ne primiše nauke; maè vaš proždrije proroke vaše kao lav koji davi.
31 O generation, take heede to the worde of the Lord: haue I bene as a wildernesse vnto Israel? or a lande of darkenesse? Wherefore sayeth my people then, We are lordes, we will come no more vnto thee?
O rode! vidite rijeè Gospodnju; bijah li pustinja Izrailju ili mraèna zemlja? zašto govori moj narod: gospodari smo, neæemo više doæi k tebi?
32 Can a maid forget her ornament, or a bride her attire? yet my people haue forgotten me, daies without number.
Zaboravlja li djevojka svoj nakit i nevjesta ures svoj? a narod moj zaboravi me toliko dana da im nema broja.
33 Why doest thou prepare thy way, to seeke amitie? euen therefore will I teach thee, that thy waies are wickednesse.
Zašto govoriš da je dobar tvoj put tražeæi što ljubiš? pa si i nevaljale žene nauèio svojim putovima.
34 Also in thy wings is founde the bloud of the soules of ye poore innocents: I haue not found it in holes, but vpon all these places.
I jošte na skutovima tvojim nalazi se krv siromaha pravijeh; ne nalazim kopajuæi, nego je na svjema njima.
35 Yet thou saiest, Because I am giltles, surely his wrath shall turne from mee: beholde, I will enter with thee into iudgement, because thou saiest, I haue not sinned.
A ti govoriš: nijesam kriv, gnjev se je njegov odvratio od mene. Evo ja æu se preti s tobom što govoriš: nijesam zgriješio.
36 Why runnest thou about so much to change thy waies? for thou shalt be confounded of Egypt, as thou art confounded of Asshur.
Zašto trèkaš tako mijenjajuæi svoj put? Posramiæeš se od Misirca kako si se posramio od Asirca.
37 For thou shalt goe foorth from thence, and thine hands vpon thine head, because the Lord hath reiected thy confidence, and thou shalt not prosper thereby.
Otiæi æeš i odatle s rukama nad glavom svojom, jer Gospod odbacuje uzdanice tvoje, i neæeš biti sreæan u njima.
