Jeremiah 47

1 The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the Philistines, before that Pharaoh struck Gaza.

Rijeè Gospodnja koja doðe Jeremiji proroku za Filisteje prije nego Faraon osvoji Gazu.

2 "Thus says the LORD: 'Look, waters rise up out of the north, and shall become an overflowing stream, and shall overflow the land and all that is in it, the city and those who dwell in it; and the men shall cry, and all the inhabitants of the land shall wail.

Ovako veli Gospod: evo, voda dolazi sa sjevera, i biæe kao potok koji se razljeva, i potopiæe zemlju i što je u njoj, grad i one koji žive u njemu; i ljudi æe vikati, i ridaæe svi stanovnici zemaljski.

3 At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong ones, at the rushing of his chariots, at the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers do not look back to their children for feebleness of hands;

Od topota kopita jakih konja njegovijeh, od tutnjave kola njegovijeh, i praske toèkova njegovijeh, neæe se obazreti ocevi na sinove, jer æe im ruke klonuti,

4 because of the day that comes to destroy all the Philistines, to cut off from Tyre and Sidon every helper who remains: for the LORD will destroy the Philistines, the remnant of the isle of Caphtor.

Od onoga dana koji æe doæi da istrijebi sve Filisteje i da zatre Tir i Sidon i sve ostale pomoænike, jer æe Gospod istrijebiti Filisteje, ostatak ostrva Kaftora.

5 Baldness has come on Gaza; Ashkelon is brought to nothing, the remnant of their valley: how long will you cut yourself?

Oæelaviæe Gaza, propašæe Askalon i ostatak doline njihove; dokle æeš se rezati?

6 You sword of the LORD, "how long will it be before you be quiet? Put yourself into your sheath; rest, and be still."

Jaoh, maèu Gospodnji, kad æeš se smiriti? vrati se u korice svoje, stani i smiri se.

7 How can it be quiet, since the LORD has given you a command? Against Ashkelon, and against the seashore, there has he appointed it.'"

Ali kako bi se smirio? jer mu Gospod dade zapovijest na Askalon i na primorje; onamo ga odredi.
