Lamentations 2
1 How has the LORD covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud in his anger, and cast down from heaven to the earth the beauty of Israel, and remembered not his footstool in the day of his anger!
Како обастре Господ облаком у гневу свом кћер сионску! Сврже с неба на земљу славу Израиљеву, и не опомену се подножја ногу својих у дан гнева свог!
2 The LORD has swallowed up all the habitations of Jacob, and has not pitied: he has thrown down in his wrath the strong holds of the daughter of Judah; he has brought them down to the ground: he has polluted the kingdom and the princes thereof.
Господ потре немилице све станове Јаковљеве, развали у гневу свом градове кћери Јудине, и на земљу обори, оскврни царство и кнезове његове.
3 He has cut off in his fierce anger all the horn of Israel: he has drawn back his right hand from before the enemy, and he burned against Jacob like a flaming fire, which devours round about.
Одби у жестоком гневу сав рог Израиљу, обрати натраг десницу своју од непријатеља, и распали се на Јакова као огањ пламени, који прождире све око себе.
4 He has bent his bow like an enemy: he stood with his right hand as an adversary, and slew all that were pleasant to the eye in the tabernacle of the daughter of Zion: he poured out his fury like fire.
Натеже лук свој као непријатељ, подиже десницу своју као противник, и поби све што беше драго очима; на шатор кћери сионске просу као огањ гнев свој.
5 The LORD was as an enemy: he has swallowed up Israel, he has swallowed up all her palaces: he has destroyed his strong holds, and has increased in the daughter of Judah mourning and lamentation.
Господ поста као непријатељ; потре Израиља, потре све дворе његове, раскопа све градове његове, и умножи кћери Јудиној жалост и јад.
6 And he has violently taken away his tabernacle, as if it were of a garden: he has destroyed his places of the assembly: the LORD has caused the solemn feasts and sabbaths to be forgotten in Zion, and has despised in the indignation of his anger the king and the priest.
Развали му ограду као врту; потре место састанцима његовим; Господ врже у заборав на Сиону празнике и суботу, и у жестини гнева свог одбаци цара и свештеника.
7 The LORD has cast off his altar, he has abhorred his sanctuary, he has given up into the hand of the enemy the walls of her palaces; they have made a noise in the house of the LORD, as in the day of a solemn feast.
Одбаци Господ олтар свој, омрзе на светињу своју, предаде у руке непријатељима зидове двора сионских; стаде их вика у дому Господњем као на празник.
8 The LORD has purposed to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion: he has stretched out a line, he has not withdrawn his hand from destroying: therefore he made the rampart and the wall to lament; they languished together.
Господ науми да раскопа зид кћери сионске, растеже уже, и не одврати руке своје да не затре, и ојади опкоп и зид, изнемогоше скупа.
9 Her gates are sunk into the ground; he has destroyed and broken her bars: her king and her princes are among the Gentiles: the law is no more; her prophets also find no vision from the LORD.
Утонуше у земљу врата њена, поломи и потре преворнице њене; цар њен и кнезови њени међу народима су; закона нема, и пророци њени не добијају утваре од Господа.
10 The elders of the daughter of Zion sit on the ground, and keep silence: they have cast up dust on their heads; they have girded themselves with sackcloth: the virgins of Jerusalem hang down their heads to the ground.
Старешине кћери сионске седе на земљи и ћуте, посуле су прахом главу и припасале кострет; обориле су к земљи главе своје девојке јерусалимске.
11 My eyes do fail with tears, my bowels are troubled, my liver is poured on the earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people; because the children and the sucklings swoon in the streets of the city.
Ишчилеше ми очи од суза, утроба се моја усколебала, просипа се на земљу јетра моја од погибли кћери народа мог, јер деца и која сисају обамиру на улицама градским.
12 They say to their mothers, Where is corn and wine? when they swooned as the wounded in the streets of the city, when their soul was poured out into their mothers’ bosom.
Говоре матерама својим: Где је жито и вино? Обамиру као рањеници на улицама градским, и испуштају душу своју у наручју матера својих.
13 What thing shall I take to witness for you? what thing shall I liken to you, O daughter of Jerusalem? what shall I equal to you, that I may comfort you, O virgin daughter of Zion? for your breach is great like the sea: who can heal you?
Кога ћу ти узети за сведока? С чим ћу те изједначити, кћери јерусалимска? Какву ћу ти прилику наћи, да те утешим, девојко, кћери сионска? Јер је несрећа твоја велика као море, ко ће те исцелити?
14 Your prophets have seen vain and foolish things for you: and they have not discovered your iniquity, to turn away your captivity; but have seen for you false burdens and causes of banishment.
Пророци твоји пророковаше ти лаж и безумље, и не откриваше безакоња твог да би одвратили ропство твоје; него ти казиваше утваре лажне и које ће те прогнати.
15 All that pass by clap their hands at you; they hiss and wag their head at the daughter of Jerusalem, saying, Is this the city that men call The perfection of beauty, The joy of the whole earth?
Пљескају рукама над тобом сви који пролазе, звижде и машу главом за кћерју јерусалимском: То ли је град, за који говораху да је права лепота, радост свој земљи?
16 All your enemies have opened their mouth against you: they hiss and gnash the teeth: they say, We have swallowed her up: certainly this is the day that we looked for; we have found, we have seen it.
Разваљују уста на те сви непријатељи твоји, звижде и шкргућу зубима говорећи: Прождресмо; ово је доиста дан који чекасмо; дочекасмо, видесмо.
17 The LORD has done that which he had devised; he has fulfilled his word that he had commanded in the days of old: he has thrown down, and has not pitied: and he has caused your enemy to rejoice over you, he has set up the horn of your adversaries.
Учини Господ шта науми, испуни реч своју, коју каза одавна; разори немилице и развесели тобом непријатеља, подиже рог противницима твојим.
18 Their heart cried to the LORD, O wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears run down like a river day and night: give yourself no rest; let not the apple of your eye cease.
Виче срце њихово ка Господу: Зиде кћери сионске, проливај потоком сузе дан и ноћ, не дај себи мира, и зеница ока твог да не стаје.
19 Arise, cry out in the night: in the beginning of the watches pour out your heart like water before the face of the LORD: lift up your hands toward him for the life of your young children, that faint for hunger in the top of every street.
Устани, вичи обноћ, у почетку страже, проливај срце своје као воду пред Господом, подижи к Њему руке своје за душу деце своје која обамиру од глади на угловима својих улица.
20 Behold, O LORD, and consider to whom you have done this. Shall the women eat their fruit, and children of a span long? shall the priest and the prophet be slain in the sanctuary of the Lord?
Погледај, Господе, и види, коме си овако учинио. Еда ли жене једу пород свој, децу коју носе у наручју? Еда ли се убија у светињи Господњој свештеник и пророк?
21 The young and the old lie on the ground in the streets: my virgins and my young men are fallen by the sword; you have slain them in the day of your anger; you have killed, and not pitied.
Леже на земљи по улицама деца и старци, девојке моје и младићи моји падоше од мача, побио си их у дан гнева свог и поклао не жалећи.
22 You have called as in a solemn day my terrors round about, so that in the day of the LORD’s anger none escaped nor remained: those that I have swaddled and brought up has my enemy consumed.
Сазвао си као на празник страхоте моје од свуда, и у дан гнева Господњег нико не утече нити оста. Које на руку носих и отхраних, њих ми непријатељ мој поби.
