Lamentations 2
1 How hath the Lord darkened the daughter of Zion in his wrath! and hath cast downe from heauen vnto the earth the beautie of Israel, and remembred not his footestoole in the day of his wrath!
Kako je Gospod v svoji jezi pokril sionsko hčer z oblakom in vrgel dol z neba na zemljo Izraelovo lepoto in se ni spominjal svoje pručke na dan svoje jeze!
2 The Lord hath destroyed al the habitations of Iaakob, and not spared: he hath throwen downe in his wrath ye strong holds of the daughter of Iudah: he hath cast the downe to ye ground: he hath polluted the kingdome and the princes thereof.
Gospod je požrl vsa Jakobova prebivališča in se ni usmilil. V svojem besu je zrušil oporišča Judove hčere; privedel jih je dol do tal. Oskrunil je kraljestvo in njegove prince.
3 Hee hath cut off in his fierce wrath all the horne of Israel: he hath drawen backe his right hand from before the enemie, and there was kindled in Iaakob like a flame of fire, which deuoured rounde about.
V svoji kruti jezi je odrezal ves Izraelov rog. Svojo desnico je umaknil izpred sovražnika in zoper Jakoba je gorel plameneč ogenj, ki požira vsenaokrog.
4 He hath bent his bowe like an enemie: his right hand was stretched vp as an aduersarie, and slewe al that was pleasant to the eye in the tabernacle of the daughter of Zion: he powred out his wrath like fire.
Svoj lok je upognil kakor sovražnik. S svojo desnico je stal kakor nasprotnik in usmrtil vse, ki so bili prijetni za oko v šotorskem svetišču sionske hčere. Svojo razjarjenost je izlil kakor ogenj.
5 The Lord was as an enemie: he hath deuoured Israel, and consumed all his palaces: hee hath destroyed his strong holdes, and hath increased in the daughter of Iudah lamentation and mourning.
Gospod je bil kakor sovražnik. Požrl je Izraela, požrl je vse njegove palače. Uničil je vsa njegova oporišča in v Judovi hčeri je povečal žalovanje in objokovanje.
6 For hee hath destroyed his Tabernacle, as a garden, hee hath destroyed his Congregation: the Lord hath caused the feastes and Sabbathes to bee forgotten in Zion, and hath despised in the indignation of his wrath the King and the Priest.
Nasilno je odvzel svoje šotorsko svetišče, kakor če bi bil ta od vrta. Uničil je njegove kraje zborovanja. Gospod je storil, da se slovesni prazniki in šabate pozabijo v Sionu in v ogorčenju svoje jeze je preziral kralja in duhovnika.
7 The Lord hath forsaken his altar: he hath abhorred his Sanctuarie: he hath giue into the hand of the enemie the walles of her palaces: they haue made a noyse in the House of the Lord, as in the day of solemnitie.
Gospod je zavrgel svoj oltar, preziral svoje svetišče, zidove svoje palače je predal v roko sovražnika; v Gospodovi hiši so vzdignili hrup kakor na dan slovesnega praznika.
8 The Lord hath determined to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion: hee stretched out a lyne: hee hath not withdrawen his hande from destroying: therefore hee made the rampart and the wall to lament: they were destroyed together.
Gospod se je namenil, da uniči obzidje sionske hčere. Iztegnil je vrvico, svoje roke ni umaknil pred uničevanjem. Zato je naredil obrambni zid in obzidje za žalovanje; skupaj so slabeli.
9 Her gates are sunke to the grounde: he hath destroyed and broken her barres: her King and her princes are among the Gentiles: the Lawe is no more, neither can her Prophets receiue any vision from the Lord.
Njena velika vrata so se pogreznila v tla; uničeni in zlomljeni so njeni zapahi. Njen kralj in njeni princi so med pogani. Postave ni več, tudi njeni preroki ne najdejo videnja od Gospoda.
10 The Elders of the daughter of Zion sit vpon the grounde, and keepe silence: they haue cast vp dust vpon their heades: they haue girded them selues with sackecloth: the virgines of Ierusalem hang downe their heades to the ground.
Starešine hčere sionske sedijo na tleh in molčijo. Na svoje glave so metali prah. Opasali so se z vrečevino. Device [prestolnice] Jeruzalem svoje glave povešajo k tlom.
11 Mine eyes doe saile with teares: my bowels swell: my liuer is powred vpon the earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people, because the children and sucklings swoone in the streetes of the citie.
Moje oči pešajo s solzami, moja notranjost je vznemirjena, moja jetra so izlita na zemljo zaradi uničenja hčere mojega ljudstva; ker so otroci in dojenčki omedlevali na ulicah mesta.
12 They haue sayd to their mothers, Where is bread and drinke? when they swooned as the wounded in the streetes of the citie, and whe they gaue vp the ghost in their mothers bosome.
Svojim materam pravijo: »Kje sta žito in vino?« ko so omedlevali kakor ranjeni na ulicah mesta, ko so bile njihove duše izlite v naročje njihovih mater.
13 What thing shall I take to witnesse for thee? what thing shall I compare to thee, O daughter Ierusalem? what shall I liken to thee, that I may comfort thee, O virgine daughter Zion? for thy breach is great like ye sea: who can heale thee?
Kakšno stvar bom vzel, da pričuje zate? S kakšno stvarjo te bom primerjal, oh hči [prestolnice] Jeruzalem? Kaj bom enačil s teboj, da bi te lahko potolažil, oh devica, hči sionska, kajti tvoja vrzel je velika kakor morje. Kdo te lahko ozdravi?
14 Thy Prophets haue looked out vayne, and foolish things for thee, and they haue not discouered thine iniquitie, to turne away thy captiuitie, but haue looked out for thee false prophesies, and causes of banishment.
Tvoji preroki so zate videli prazne in bedaste stvari in niso odkrili tvoje krivičnosti, da odvrnejo tvoje ujetništvo, temveč so zate videli napačna bremena in razloge izgnanstva.
15 All that passe by the way, clap their hands at thee: they hisse and wagge their head vpon the daughter Ierusalem, saying, Is this the citie that men call, The perfection of beautie, and the ioye of the whole earth?
Vsi, ki gredo mimo, s svojimi rokami ploskajo nad teboj, sikajo in s svojimi glavami zmajujejo ob jeruzalemski hčeri, rekoč: »Ali je to mesto, ki ga ljudje imenujejo Popolnost lepote, Radost celotne zemlje?«
16 All thine enemies haue opened their mouth against thee: they hisse and gnashe the teeth, saying, Let vs deuoure it: certainely this is the day that we looked for: we haue founde and seene it.
Vsi tvoji sovražniki so odprli svoja usta zoper tebe. Sikajo in škripajo z zobmi. Pravijo: »Požrli smo jo. Zagotovo, to je dan, ki smo se ga veselili; našli smo, videli smo to.
17 The Lord hath done that which he had purposed: he hath fulfilled his worde that he had determined of old time: he hath throwen downe, and not spared: hee hath caused thine enemie to reioyce ouer thee, and set vp the horne of thine aduersaries.
Gospod je storil to, kar je načrtoval. Izpolnil je svojo besedo, ki jo je zapovedal od dni davnine. Zrušil je in se ni usmilil in tvojemu sovražniku je dal, da se veseli nad teboj, vzdignil je rog tvojih nasprotnikov.
18 Their heart cryed vnto the Lord, O wall of the daughter Zion, let teares runne downe like a riuer, day and night: take thee no rest, neither let the apple of thine eye cease.
Njihovo srce je klicalo h Gospodu, oh obzidje hčere sionske, naj solze tečejo kakor reka, podnevi in ponoči. Ne daj si počitka, naj punčica tvojega očesa ne preneha.
19 Arise, cry in the night: in the beginning of the watches powre out thine heart like water before the face of the Lord: lift vp thine handes towarde him for the life of thy yong children, that faint for hunger in the corners of all the streetes.
Vstani, zavpij ponoči. Ob začetku straž izlij svoje srce kakor vodo pred Gospodovim obrazom. Dvigni svoje roke k njemu zaradi življenja svojih mladih otrok, ki slabijo zaradi lakote na vrhu vsake ulice.
20 Beholde, O Lord, and consider to whome thou hast done thus: shall the women eate their fruite, and children of a spanne long? shall the Priest and the Prophet be slaine in the Sanctuarie of the Lord?
Glej, oh Gospod in preudari, komu si to storil. Mar bodo ženske jedle svoj sad, otroke pedenj dolge? Mar bosta duhovnik in prerok umorjena v Gospodovem svetišču?
21 The yong and the olde lie on the ground in the streetes: my virgins and my yong men are fallen by the sworde: thou hast slaine them in the day of thy wrath: thou hast killed and not spared.
Mladi in stari ležijo po tleh na ulicah. Moje device in moji mladeniči so padli pod mečem; umoril si jih na dan svoje jeze, pobil si jih in se nisi usmilil.
22 Thou hast called as in a solemne daye my terrours rounde about, so that in the day of the Lordes wrath none escaped nor remained: those that I haue nourished and brought vp, hath mine enemie consumed.
Poklical si kakor na slovesen dan moje strahote naokoli, tako da na dan Gospodove jeze nihče ni pobegnil niti preostal. Tiste, ki sem jih povil in vzgojil, je použil moj sovražnik.
