Jeremiah 44
1 The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews which dwell in the land of Egypt, which dwell at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Noph, and in the country of Pathros, saying,
Rijeè koja doðe Jeremiji za sve Judejce koji življahu u zemlji Misirskoj, koji življahu u Migdolu i u Tafnesu i u Nofu i u zemlji Patrosu, govoreæi:
2 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; You have seen all the evil that I have brought on Jerusalem, and on all the cities of Judah; and, behold, this day they are a desolation, and no man dwells therein,
Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama Bog Izrailjev: vi vidjeste sve zlo što navedoh na Jerusalim i na sve gradove Judine, i evo su danas pusti i nema nikoga da živi u njima,
3 Because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in that they went to burn incense, and to serve other gods, whom they knew not, neither they, you, nor your fathers.
Za zloæu njihovu koju èiniše da bi me gnjevili hodeæi da kade i služe drugim bogovima, kojih ne znaše ni oni ni vi ni oci vaši.
4 However, I sent to you all my servants the prophets, rising early and sending them, saying, Oh, do not this abominable thing that I hate.
I slah k vama sve sluge svoje proroke zarana jednako govoreæi: ne èinite toga gada, na koji mrzim.
5 But they listened not, nor inclined their ear to turn from their wickedness, to burn no incense to other gods.
Ali ne poslušaše niti prignuše uha svojega da se vrate od zloæe svoje, da ne kade drugim bogovima.
6 Why my fury and my anger was poured forth, and was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are wasted and desolate, as at this day.
Zato se izli jarost moja i gnjev moj, i razgorje se u gradovima Judinijem i po ulicama Jerusalimskim, te postaše razvaline i pustoš, kao što se vidi danas.
7 Therefore now thus says the LORD, the God of hosts, the God of Israel; Why commit you this great evil against your souls, to cut off from you man and woman, child and suckling, out of Judah, to leave you none to remain;
A sada ovako veli Gospod Bog nad vojskama, Bog Izrailjev: zašto sami sebi èinite tako veliko zlo da istrijebite iz Jude ljude i žene, djecu i koja sisaju, da ne ostane u vas ostatka,
8 In that you provoke me to wrath with the works of your hands, burning incense to other gods in the land of Egypt, where you be gone to dwell, that you might cut yourselves off, and that you might be a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth?
Gnjeveæi me djelima ruku svojih, kadeæi drugim bogovima u zemlji Misirskoj, u koju doðoste da se stanite da biste se istrijebili i postali kletva i rug u svijeh naroda na zemlji.
9 Have you forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives, which they have committed in the land of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
Jeste li zaboravili zla otaca svojih i zla careva Judinijeh i zla žena njihovijeh, i svoja zla i zla žena svojih, koja èiniše u zemlji Judinoj i po ulicama Jerusalimskim?
10 They are not humbled even to this day, neither have they feared, nor walked in my law, nor in my statutes, that I set before you and before your fathers.
Ne pokoriše se do danas niti se pobojaše, niti hodiše po mom zakonu i uredbama mojim, koje stavih pred vas i pred oce vaše.
11 Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will set my face against you for evil, and to cut off all Judah.
Zato ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama Bog Izrailjev: evo, ja æu vam obratiti lice svoje na zlo, da istrijebim sve Judejce.
12 And I will take the remnant of Judah, that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, and they shall all be consumed, and fall in the land of Egypt; they shall even be consumed by the sword and by the famine: they shall die, from the least even to the greatest, by the sword and by the famine: and they shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach.
I uzeæu ostatak Judin, koji okrenu lice svoje da ide u zemlju Misirsku da se ondje stani, i izginuæe svi; u zemlji æe Misirskoj pasti i izginuti od maèa i od gladi, malo i veliko, izginuæe od maèa i od gladi, i biæe uklin i èudo i prokletstvo i rug.
13 For I will punish them that dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have punished Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence:
I pohodiæu one koji nastavaju u zemlji Misirskoj, kao što sam pohodio Jerusalim, maèem, glaðu i pomorom;
14 So that none of the remnant of Judah, which are gone into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall escape or remain, that they should return into the land of Judah, to the which they have a desire to return to dwell there: for none shall return but such as shall escape.
I nijedan od ostatka Judina, što otidoše u zemlju Misirsku da se ondje stane, neæe uteæi niti se izbaviti da se vrate u zemlju Judinu, u koju se žele vratiti da se nasele; jer se neæe vratiti, osim koji pobjegnu.
15 Then all the men which knew that their wives had burned incense to other gods, and all the women that stood by, a great multitude, even all the people that dwelled in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying,
Tada odgovoriše Jeremiji svi ljudi koji znaðahu da žene njihove kade drugim bogovima, i sve žene, kojih stajaše ondje velik zbor, i sav narod što življaše u zemlji Misirskoj, u Patrosu, govoreæi:
16 As for the word that you have spoken to us in the name of the LORD, we will not listen to you.
Što nam kaza u ime Gospodnje, neæemo te poslušati;
17 But we will certainly do whatever thing goes forth out of our own mouth, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her, as we have done, we, and our fathers, our kings, and our princes, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then had we plenty of victuals, and were well, and saw no evil.
Nego æemo èiniti sve što je izašlo iz naših usta kadeæi carici nebeskoj i ljevajuæi joj naljeve, kao što smo èinili mi i oci naši, carevi naši i knezovi naši po gradovima Judinijem i po ulicama Jerusalimskim, jer bijasmo siti hljeba i bijaše nam dobro i zla ne viðasmo.
18 But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine.
A otkad prestasmo kaditi carici nebeskoj i ljevati joj naljeve, ništa nemamo i ginemo od maèa i od gladi.
19 And when we burned incense to the queen of heaven, and poured out drink offerings to her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink offerings to her, without our men?
I kad kadimo carici nebeskoj i ljevamo joj naljeve, eda li joj bez glavara svojih peèemo kolaèe služeæi joj i ljevamo joj naljeve?
20 Then Jeremiah said to all the people, to the men, and to the women, and to all the people which had given him that answer, saying,
Tada reèe Jeremija svemu narodu, ljudima i ženama, i svemu narodu, koji mu onako odgovoriše, govoreæi:
21 The incense that you burned in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, you, and your fathers, your kings, and your princes, and the people of the land, did not the LORD remember them, and came it not into his mind?
Eda li se ne opomenu Gospod kada, kojim kadiste u gradovima Judinijem i po ulicama Jerusalimskim vi i oci vaši, carevi vaši i knezovi vaši i narod zemaljski? i ne doðe li mu u srce?
22 So that the LORD could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which you have committed; therefore is your land a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without an inhabitant, as at this day.
I ne može Gospod više podnositi zloæe djela vaših i gadova koje èiniste, te zemlja vaša posta pustoš i èudo i prokletstvo, da niko ne živi u njoj, kako se vidi danas.
23 Because you have burned incense, and because you have sinned against the LORD, and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil is happened to you, as at this day.
Zato što kadiste i što griješiste Gospodu i ne slušaste glasa Gospodnjega, i po zakonu njegovu i uredbama njegovijem i svjedoèanstvima njegovijem ne hodiste, zato vas zadesi ovo zlo, kako se vidi danas.
24 Moreover Jeremiah said to all the people, and to all the women, Hear the word of the LORD, all Judah that are in the land of Egypt:
Još reèe Jeremija svemu narodu i svijem ženama: èujte rijeè Gospodnju, svi Judejci, koji ste u zemlji Misirskoj.
25 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying; You and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your hand, saying, We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her: you will surely accomplish your vows, and surely perform your vows.
Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama Bog Izrailjev govoreæi: vi i žene vaše rekoste ustima svojim i rukama svojim izvršiste govoreæi: izvršivaæemo zavjete svoje što zavjetovasmo kadeæi carici nebeskoj i ljevajuæi joj naljeve. Doista ispuniste zavjete svoje i izvršiste.
26 Therefore hear you the word of the LORD, all Judah that dwell in the land of Egypt; Behold, I have sworn by my great name, says the LORD, that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, The Lord GOD lives.
Zato èujte Judejci rijeè Gospodnju, svi Judejci koji stanujete u zemlji Misirskoj: evo, ja se zaklinjem velikim imenom svojim, veli Gospod, da se ime moje neæe više izricati ustima nijednoga Judejca u svoj zemlji Misirskoj da bi rekao: tako da je živ Gospod Gospod!
27 Behold, I will watch over them for evil, and not for good: and all the men of Judah that are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until there be an end of them.
Evo, ja æu paziti na njih zla radi, ne dobra radi, i Judejci koji su u zemlji Misirskoj svi æe ginuti od maèa i od gladi, dokle ih ne bude nijednoga.
28 Yet a small number that escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah, and all the remnant of Judah, that are gone into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall know whose words shall stand, mine, or theirs.
A koji uteku od maèa, vratiæe se iz zemlje Misirske u zemlju Judinu, malo njih, jer sav ostatak Judin, što otidoše u zemlju Misirsku da se ondje nastane, poznaæe èija æe se rijeè navršiti, moja ili njihova.
29 And this shall be a sign to you, says the LORD, that I will punish you in this place, that you may know that my words shall surely stand against you for evil:
A ovo da vam je znak, govori Gospod, da æu vas pohoditi na tom mjestu da znate da æe se doista ispuniti rijeèi moje vama na zlo;
30 Thus says the LORD; Behold, I will give pharaoh Hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of them that seek his life; as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, his enemy, and that sought his life.
Ovako veli Gospod: evo, ja æu dati Faraona Vafrija cara Misirskoga u ruke neprijateljima njegovijem i u ruke onijem koji traže dušu njegovu, kao što sam dao Sedekiju cara Judina u ruke Navuhodonosoru caru Vavilonskom, neprijatelju njegovu i koji tražaše dušu njegovu.
