< Jeremias 41 >

1 The word that came to Jeremias from the Lord (now Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, and all his army, and all the country of his dominion, were warring against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Juda, ) saying,
A sedmoga mjeseca doðe Ismailo sin Netanije sina Elisamina, carskoga roda, i knezovi carevi, deset ljudi s njim, ka Godoliji sinu Ahikamovu u Mispu, i jedoše ondje u Mispi s njim.
2 Thus has the Lord said; Go to Sedekias king of Juda, and you shall say to him, Thus has the Lord said, This city shall certainly be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it, and shall burn it with fire:
Potom usta Ismailo sin Netanijin i deset ljudi što bijahu s njim, i ubiše maèem Godoliju sina Ahikama sina Safanova; tako pogubiše onoga koga bješe postavio car Vavilonski nad zemljom.
3 and you shall not escape out of his hand, but shall certainly be taken, and shall be given into his hands; and your eyes shall see his eyes, and you shall enter into Babylon.
I sve Judejce koji bijahu s njim, s Godolijom, u Mispi, i Haldejce koji se zatekoše ondje, vojnike, pobi Ismailo.
4 But hear the word of the Lord, O Sedekias king of Juda; Thus says the Lord,
A sjutradan pošto ubi Godoliju, dok još niko ne dozna,
5 You shall die in peace: and as they wept for your fathers that reigned before you, they shall weep also for you, [saying], Ah lord! and they shall lament for you down to the grave: for I have spoken the word, said the Lord.
Doðoše ljudi iz Sihema, iz Siloma i iz Samarije, osamdeset ljudi, obrijane brade i razdrtijeh haljina i isparani po tijelu, i imahu u rukama dar i kad, da prinesu u dom Gospodnji.
6 And Jeremias spoke to king Sedekias all these words in Jerusalem.
Tada Ismailo sin Netanijin izide im na susret iz Mispe i iðaše plaèuæi, i sretavši se s njima reèe im: hodite ka Godoliji sinu Ahikamovu.
7 And the host of the king of Babylon warred against Jerusalem, and against the cities of Juda, and against Lachis, and against Azeca: for these strong cities were left among the cities of Juda.
A kad doðoše usred grada, pokla ih Ismailo sin Netanijin s ljudima koji bijahu s njim i baci ih u jamu.
8 The word that came from the Lord to Jeremias, after king Sedekias had concluded a covenant with the people, to proclaim a release;
A meðu njima se naðe deset ljudi koji rekoše Ismailu: nemoj nas pogubiti, jer imamo sakriveno blago u polju, pšenice i jeèma i ulja i meda. I ostavi ih, i ne pobi ih s braæom njihovom.
9 That every one should set at liberty his servant, and every one has handmaid, the Hebrew man and Hebrew woman, that no man of Juda should be a bondman.
A jama u koju pobaca Ismailo sva tjelesa ljudi koje pobi uz Godoliju bijaše ona koju naèini car Asa bojeæi se Vase cara Izrailjeva; i Ismailo sin Netanijin napuni je pobijenijeh ljudi.
10 Then all the nobles, and all the people who had entered into the covenant, [engaging] to set free every one his man-servant, and every one his maid, turned,
I zarobi Ismailo sav ostatak naroda što bijaše u Mispi, kæeri careve i sav narod što bješe ostao u Mispi, nad kojim bješe postavio Nevuzardan zapovjednik stražarski Godoliju sina Ahikamova; i zarobivši ih Ismailo sin Netanijin poðe da prijeðe k sinovima Amonovijem.
11 and gave them over to be menservants and maidservants.
Ali Joanan sin Karijin i sve vojvode što bijahu s njim èuše sve zlo što uèini Ismailo sin Netanijin.
12 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, saying,
Tada uzeše sve svoje ljude i poðoše da udare na Ismaila sina Netanijina, kojega naðoše kod velike vode u Gavaonu.
13 Thus says the Lord; I made a covenant with your fathers in the day wherein I took them out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying,
I sav narod što bješe s Ismailom kad vidje Joanana sina Karijina i sve vojvode što bjehu s njim, obradova se,
14 When six years are accomplished, you shall set free your brother the Hebrew, who shall be sold to you: for he shall serve you six years, and [then] you shall let him go free: but they listened not to me, and inclined not their ear.
I sav narod što Ismailo zarobi iz Mispe obrnu se i otide k Joananu sinu Karijinu.
15 And this day they turned to do that which was right in my sight, to proclaim every one the release of his neighbor; and they had concluded a covenant before me, in the house whereon my name is called.
A Ismailo sin Netanijin pobježe s osam ljudi od Joanana, i otide k sinovima Amonovijem.
16 But you turned and profaned my name, to bring back every one his servant, and every one his handmaid, whom you had sent forth free [and] at their own disposal, to be to you menservants and maidservants.
I tako Joanan sin Karijin i sve vojvode što bijahu s njim uzeše sav ostatak naroda što povratiše od Ismaila sina Netanijina, koji ubiv Godoliju sina Ahikamova bješe ih odveo iz Mispe, vojnike i žene i djecu i dvorane, i odvedoše ih iz Gavaona;
17 Therefore thus said the Lord; You have not listened to me, to proclaim a release every one to his neighbor: behold, I proclaim a release to you, to the sword, and to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will give you up to dispersion [among] all the kingdoms of the earth.
I otišavši stadoše u gostionici Himamovoj kod Vitlejema, da bi otišli i prešli u Misir,
18 And I will give the men that have transgressed my covenant, who have not kept my covenant, which they made before me, the calf which they prepared to sacrifice with it,
Radi Haldejaca, jer ih se bojahu, što Ismailo sin Netanijin ubi Godoliju sina Ahikamova, kojega bješe postavio car Vavilonski nad zemljom.
19 the princes of Juda, and the men in power, and the priests, and the people;
20 I will even give them to their enemies, and their carcases shall be food for the birds of the sky and for the wild beasts of the earth.
21 And I will give Sedekias king of Judea, and their princes, into the hands of their enemies, and the host of the king of Babylon [shall come upon] them that run away from them.
22 Behold, I [will] give command, says the Lord, and will bring them back to this land; and they shall fight against it, and take it, and burn it with fire, and the cities of Juda; and I will make them desolate without inhabitants.
