Jeremiah 50
1 The word that the LORD spoke concerning Babylon, concerning the land of the Chaldeans, by Jeremiah the prophet.
Rijeè koju reèe Gospod za Vavilon i za zemlju Haldejsku preko Jeremije proroka.
2 "Declare among the nations and publish, and set up a standard; publish, and do not conceal: say, 'Babylon is taken, Bel is disappointed, Marduk is dismayed; her images are disappointed, her idols are dismayed.
Javite narodima i razglasite, podignite zastavu, razglasite, ne tajite, recite: uze se Vavilon, posrami se Vil, razbi se Merodah; posramiše se idoli njegovi, razbiše se gadni bogovi njegovi.
3 For out of the north there comes up a nation against her, which shall make her land desolate, and none shall dwell in it: they are fled, they are gone, both man and animal.
Jer se narod podiže na nj sa sjevera, koji æe mu zemlju opustiti, da neæe biti nikoga da živi u njoj; i ljudi i stoka pobjeæi æe i otiæi.
4 In those days, and in that time,' says the LORD, 'the children of Israel shall come, they and the people of Judah together; they shall go on their way weeping, and shall seek the LORD their God.
U te dane i u to vrijeme, govori Gospod, doæi æe sinovi Izrailjevi i sinovi Judini zajedno, iæi æe plaèuæi i tražiæe Gospoda Boga svojega.
5 They shall inquire concerning Zion with their faces turned toward it. They will come and join themselves to the LORD in an everlasting covenant that shall not be forgotten.
Pitaæe za put u Sion, i obrativši se onamo reæi æe: hodite, sjedinimo se s Gospodom zavjetom vjeènijem, koji se ne zaboravlja.
6 My people have been lost sheep: their shepherds have caused them to go astray; they have turned them away on the mountains; they have gone from mountain to hill; they have forgotten their resting place.
Narod je moj stado izgubljeno; pastiri njegovi zavedoše ga, te luta po gorama, ide s brda na humove, zaboravivši stan svoj.
7 All who found them have devoured them; and their adversaries said, "We are not guilty, because they have sinned against the LORD, the habitation of righteousness, even the LORD, the hope of their fathers."
Ko ih naðe, proždiraše ih, i neprijatelji njihovi govoriše: neæemo biti krivi, jer zgriješiše Gospodu, stanu pravde, Gospodu, nadu otaca njihovijeh.
8 Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and go forth out of the land of the Chaldeans, and be as the male goats before the flocks.
Bježite iz Vavilona i izidite iz zemlje Haldejske i budite kao ovnovi pred stadom.
9 For, look, I will stir up and cause to come up against Babylon a company of great nations from the north country; and they shall set themselves in array against her; from there she shall be taken. Their arrows shall be like a skilled warrior who does not return empty-handed.
Jer, evo, ja æu podignuti i dovešæu na Vavilon zbor velikih naroda iz zemlje sjeverne, koji æe se uvrstati da se biju s njim, i uzeæe ga; strijele su im kao u dobra junaka, ne vraæaju se prazne.
10 Chaldea shall be a prey: all who prey on her shall be satisfied,' says the LORD.'
I zemlja æe se Haldejska oplijeniti, svi koji æe je plijeniti nasitiæe se, govori Gospod.
11 Because you are glad, because you rejoice, O you who plunder my heritage, because you are wanton as a heifer that treads out the grain, and neigh as strong horses;
Jer se veseliste, jer se radovaste plijeneæi moje našljedstvo; jer bješnjeste kao junica na travi i rzaste kao jaki konji.
12 your mother shall be utterly disappointed; she who bore you shall be confounded: look, she shall be the least of the nations, a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert.
Mati se vaša osramoti vrlo, roditeljka vaša postidje se; evo biæe pošljednja meðu narodima, pustinja, zemlja suha i pustoš.
13 Because of the wrath of the LORD she shall not be inhabited, but she shall be wholly desolate: everyone who goes by Babylon shall be astonished, and hiss at all her plagues.
Od gnjeva Gospodnjega neæe se u njoj živjeti, nego æe sva opustjeti; ko god proðe mimo Vavilon, èudiæe se i zviždaæe radi svijeh rana njegovijeh.
14 "Set yourselves in array against Babylon all around, all you who bend the bow; shoot at her, spare no arrows: for she has sinned against the LORD.
Postavite se oko Vavilona svi koji natežete luk, strijeljajte ga, ne žalite strijela; jer je sagriješio Gospodu.
15 Shout against her all around: she has submitted herself; her towers are fallen, her walls are thrown down; for it is the vengeance of the LORD: take vengeance on her; as she has done, do to her.
Vièite na nj unaokolo; pruža ruku; temelji mu padoše, zidovi su mu razvaljeni; jer je osveta Gospodnja; osvetite mu se; kako je èinio, onako mu uèinite.
16 Cut off the sower from Babylon, and him who handles the sickle in the time of harvest: for fear of the oppressing sword they shall turn everyone to his people, and they shall flee everyone to his own land."'
Istrijebite iz Vavilona sijaèa i onoga koji maše srpom o žetvi; od maèa nasilnikova neka se vrati svaki svome narodu, i svaki u svoju zemlju neka bježi.
17 'Israel is a hunted sheep; the lions have driven him away: first, the king of Assyria devoured him; and now at last Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has broken his bones.
Izrailj je stado razagnano, lavovi ga rasplašiše; najprije ga jede car Asirski, a poslije mu kosti izlomi Navuhodonosor car Vavilonski.
18 Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: "Look, I will punish the king of Babylon and his land, as I have punished the king of Assyria.
Zato ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama, Bog Izrailjev: evo, ja æu pohoditi cara Vavilonskoga i zemlju njegovu, kao što sam pohodio cara Asirskoga.
19 I will bring Israel again to his pasture, and he shall feed on Carmel and Bashan, and his soul shall be satisfied on the hills of Ephraim and in Gilead.
I povratiæu Izrailja u torove njegove, i pašæe po Karmilu i Vasanu; i po gori Jefremovoj i Galadu sitiæe se duša njegova.
20 In those days, and in that time, says the LORD, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found: for I will pardon them whom I leave as a remnant."'"
U one dane i u ono vrijeme, govori Gospod, tražiæe se bezakonje Izrailjevo, ali ga neæe biti; i grijesi Judini, ali se neæe naæi, jer æu oprostiti onima koje ostavim.
21 "Go up against the land of Merathaim, even against it, and against the inhabitants of Pekod: kill and utterly destroy after them," says the LORD, "and do according to all that I have commanded you.
Izidi na zemlju Meratajimsku i na stanovnike Fekodske; zatri i istrijebi iza njih, govori Gospod, i uèini sve kako ti zapovjedim.
22 A sound of battle is in the land, and of great destruction.
Vika je ubojna u zemlji i polom velik.
23 How is the hammer of the whole earth cut apart and broken. How is Babylon become a desolation among the nations.
Kako se slomi i skrši malj cijele zemlje? kako Vavilon posta èudo meðu narodima?
24 I have laid a snare for you, and you are also taken, Babylon, and you weren't aware: you are found, and also caught, because you have striven against the LORD.
Ja ti metnuh zamku, Vavilone, i ti se uhvati ne doznavši, našao si se i uhvatio si se, jer si se zaratio s Gospodom.
25 The LORD has opened his armory, and has brought forth the weapons of his indignation; for the Lord, the LORD of hosts, has a work to do in the land of the Chaldeans.
Gospod otvori riznicu svoju i izvadi oružje gnjeva svojega; jer je to djelo Gospoda Gospoda nad vojskama u zemlji Haldejskoj.
26 Come against her from the utmost border; open her storehouses; cast her up as heaps, and destroy her utterly; let nothing of her be left.
Hodite na nju s kraja zemlje, otvorite žitnice njezine; gazite je kao stogove, i potrite je da ne ostane od nje ostatka.
27 Kill all her bulls; let them go down to the slaughter. Woe to them, their day has come, the time of their visitation."
Pokoljite maèem sve teoce njezine, neka siðu na zaklanje; teško njima! jer doðe dan njihov, vrijeme pohoðenja njihova.
28 The voice of those who flee and escape out of the land of Babylon, to declare in Zion the vengeance of the LORD our God, the vengeance of his temple.
Èuje se glas onijeh koji bježe i koji utekoše iz zemlje Vavilonske da jave u Sionu osvetu Gospoda Boga našega, osvetu dvora njegova.
29 "Call together the archers against Babylon, all those who bend the bow; camp against her all around; let none of it escape: recompense her according to her work; according to all that she has done, do to her; for she has been proud against the LORD, against the Holy One of Israel.
Sazovite na Vavilon mnoštvo; svi koji natežete luk, stanite u oko prema njemu unaokolo da ne uteèe nijedan, platite mu po djelima njegovijem; kako je èinio, onako mu uèinite, jer se je suprot Gospodu uznosio, suprot svecu Izrailjevu.
30 Therefore her young men will fall in her streets, and all her men of war will be brought to silence in that day," says the LORD.
Zato æe mladiæi njegovi pasti po ulicama njegovijem, i svi æe vojnici njegovi izginuti u onaj dan, govori Gospod.
31 "Look, I am against you, you proud one," says the LORD of hosts; for your day has come, the time that I will visit you.
Evo mene na tebe, ponositi, govori Gospod Gospod nad vojskama, jer doðe dan tvoj, vrijeme da te pohodim.
32 The proud one shall stumble and fall, and none shall raise him up; and I will kindle a fire in his cities, and it shall devour all who are around him."
Ponositi æe se spotaæi i pasti, i neæe biti nikoga da ga podigne; i raspaliæu oganj u gradovima njegovijem, i spaliæe svu okolinu njegovu.
33 Thus says the LORD of hosts: "The children of Israel and the people of Judah are oppressed together; and all who took them captive hold them fast; they refuse to let them go.
Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: sila se èini sinovima Izrailjevim i sinovima Judinijem; koji ih zarobiše, drže ih, neæe da ih puste.
34 Their Redeemer is strong; the LORD of hosts is his name: he will thoroughly plead their cause, that he may give rest to the earth, and disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon.
Izbavitelj je njihov silan, ime mu je Gospod nad vojskama, on æe doista braniti stvar njihovu da umiri zemlju i smete stanovnike Vavilonske.
35 A sword is on the Chaldeans," says the LORD, "and on the inhabitants of Babylon, and on her officials, and on her wise men.
Maè na Haldejce, govori Gospod, i na stanovnike Vavilonske i na knezove njegove i na mudarce njegove.
36 A sword is on the boasters, and they shall become fools; a sword is on her mighty men, and they shall be dismayed.
Maè na laže njegove, i poludjeæe; maè na junake njegove, i prepašæe se.
37 A sword is on their horses, and on their chariots, and on all the mixed people who are in the midst of her; and they shall become as women: a sword is on her treasures, and they shall be robbed.
Maè na konje njegove, i na kola njegova i na svu mješavinu što je usred njega, i postaæe kao žene; maè na blago njegovo, i razgrabiæe se.
38 A drought is on her waters, and they shall be dried up; for it is a land of engraved images, and they glory over idols.
Suša na vode njegove, i usahnuæe, jer je zemlja idolska, i oko lažnijeh bogova luduju.
39 Therefore the wild animals of the desert with the wolves shall dwell there, and the ostriches shall dwell in it: and it shall be no more inhabited forever; neither shall it be lived in from generation to generation.
Zato æe se ondje nastaniti divlje zvijeri i buljine, i sove æe ondje stanovati; i neæe se naseliti dovijeka i neæe se u njoj živjeti nigda.
40 As when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbor cities of it," says the LORD, "so shall no man dwell there, neither shall any son of man live in it."
Kao kad Gospod zatr Sodom i Gomor i susjedstvo njihovo, govori Gospod, neæe se niko ondje naseliti, niti æe se baviti u njoj sin èovjeèji.
41 "Look, a people comes from the north; and a great nation and many kings shall be stirred up from the uttermost parts of the earth.
Evo, narod æe doæi sa sjevera, velik narod, i carevi silni podignuæe se od krajeva zemaljskih.
42 They lay hold on bow and spear; they are cruel, and have no mercy; their voice roars like the sea; and they ride on horses, everyone set in array, as a man to the battle, against you, daughter of Babylon.
Luk i koplje nosiæe, žestoki æe biti, niti æe žaliti; glas æe im kao more buèati i jahaæe na konjma, spremni kao junaci za boj, na tebe, kæeri Vavilonska.
43 The king of Babylon has heard the news of them, and his hands wax feeble: anguish has taken hold of him, pains as of a woman in labor.
Car Vavilonski kad èuje glas o njima, klonuæe mu ruke, tuga æe ga spopasti i bolovi kao porodilju.
44 Look, the enemy shall come up like a lion from the pride of the Jordan against the strong habitation: for I will suddenly make them run away from it; and whoever is chosen, him will I appoint over it: for who is like me? And who will appoint me a time? And who is the shepherd who can stand before me?"
Gle, kao lav izaæi æe podižuæi se više nego Jordan na stan silnoga; ali æu ga brzo otjerati iz te zemlje, i postaviæu nad njom onoga ko je izabran; jer ko je kao ja? i ko æe se preti sa mnom? i koji æe mi pastir odoljeti?
45 Therefore hear the counsel of the LORD, that he has taken against Babylon; and his purposes, that he has purposed against the land of the Chaldeans: "Surely they shall drag them away, even the little ones of the flock; surely he shall make their habitation desolate over them.
Zato èujte namjeru Gospodnju što je naumio za Vavilon, i misli njegove što je smislio za zemlju Haldejsku; zaista najmanji iz stada razvlaèiæe ih, zaista æe opustiti stan s njima.
46 At the noise of the taking of Babylon the earth trembles, and the cry is heard among the nations."
Od praske kad se uzme Vavilon potrešæe se zemlja, i vika æe se èuti po narodima.
