Lamentations 2
1 How hath the Lord covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud in his anger! he hath cast down from heaven unto the earth the beauty of Israel, and hath not remembered his footstool in the day of his anger.
Kako obastrije Gospod oblakom u gnjevu svom kæer Sionsku! svrže s neba na zemlju slavu Izrailjevu, i ne opomenu se podnožja nogu svojih u dan gnjeva svojega!
2 The Lord hath swallowed up all the habitations of Jacob, and hath not pitied; he hath thrown down in his wrath the strong holds of the daughter of Judah; he hath brought them down to the ground: he hath profaned the kingdom and the princes thereof.
Gospod potr nemilice sve stanove Jakovljeve, razvali u gnjevu svom gradove kæeri Judine, i na zemlju obori, oskvrni carstvo i knezove njegove.
3 He hath cut off in fierce anger all the horn of Israel; he hath drawn back his right hand from before the enemy: and he hath burned up Jacob like a flaming fire, which devoureth round about.
Odbi u žestokom gnjevu sav rog Izrailju, obrati natrag desnicu svoju od neprijatelja, i raspali se na Jakova kao oganj plameni, koji proždire sve oko sebe.
4 He hath bent his bow like an enemy, he hath stood with his right hand as an adversary, and hath slain all that were pleasant to the eye: in the tent of the daughter of Zion he hath poured out his fury like fire.
Nateže luk svoj kao neprijatelj, podiže desnicu svoju kao protivnik, i pobi sve što bješe drago oèima; na šator kæeri Sionske prosu kao oganj gnjev svoj.
5 The Lord is become as an enemy, he hath swallowed up Israel; he hath swallowed up all her palaces, he hath destroyed his strong holds: and he hath multiplied in the daughter of Judah mourning and lamentation.
Gospod posta kao neprijatelj; potr Izrailja, potr sve dvore njegove, raskopa sve gradove njegove, i umnoži kæeri Judinoj žalost i jad.
6 And he hath violently taken away his tabernacle, as if it were of a garden; he hath destroyed his place of assembly: the LORD hath caused solemn assembly and sabbath to be forgotten in Zion, and hath despised in the indignation of his anger the king and the priest.
Razvali mu ogradu kao vrtu; potr mjesto sastancima njegovijem; Gospod vrže u zaborav na Sionu praznike i subotu, i u žestini gnjeva svojega odbaci cara i sveštenika.
7 The Lord hath cast off his altar, he hath abhorred his sanctuary, he hath 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 assembly.
Odbaci Gospod oltar svoj, omrze na svetinju svoju, predade u ruke neprijateljima zidove dvora Sionskih; stade ih vika u domu Gospodnjem kao na praznik.
8 The LORD hath purposed to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion; he hath stretched out the line, he hath not withdrawn his hand from destroying: but he hath made the rampart and wall to lament; they languish together.
Gospod naumi da raskopa zid kæeri Sionske, rasteže uže, i ne odvrati ruke svoje da ne zatre, i ojadi opkop i zid, iznemogoše skupa.
9 Her gates are sunk into the ground; he hath destroyed and broken her bars: her king and her princes are among the nations where the law is not; yea, her prophets find no vision from the LORD.
Utonuše u zemlju vrata njezina, polomi i potr prijevornice njezine; car njezin i knezovi njezini meðu narodima su; zakona nema, i proroci njezini ne dobijaju utvare od Gospoda.
10 The elders of the daughter of Zion sit upon the ground, they keep silence; they have cast up dust upon their heads; they have girded themselves with sackcloth: the virgins of Jerusalem hang down their heads to the ground.
Starješine kæeri Sionske sjede na zemlji i muèe, posule su prahom glavu i pripasale kostrijet; oborile su k zemlji glave svoje djevojke Jerusalimske.
11 Mine eyes do fail with tears, my bowels are troubled, my liver is poured upon the earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people; because the young children and the sucklings swoon in the streets of the city.
Išèilješe mi oèi od suza, utroba se moja uskolebala, prosipa se na zemlju jetra moja od pogibli kæeri naroda mojega, jer djeca i koja sisaju obamiru na ulicama gradskim.
12 They say to their mothers, Where is corn and wine? when they swoon as the wounded in the streets of the city, when their soul is poured out into their mothers’ bosom.
Govore materama svojim: gdje je žito i vino? obamiru kao ranjenici na ulicama gradskim, i ispuštaju dušu svoju u naruèju matera svojih.
13 What shall I testify unto thee? what shall I liken to thee, O daughter of Jerusalem? what shall I equal to thee, that I may comfort thee, O virgin daughter of Zion? for thy breach is great like the sea: who can heal thee?
Koga æu ti uzeti za svjedoka? s èim æu te izjednaèiti, kæeri Jerusalimska? kaku æu ti priliku naæi, da te utješim, djevojko, kæeri Sionska? jer je nesreæa tvoja velika kao more, ko æe te iscijeliti?
14 Thy prophets have seen visions for thee of vanity and foolishness; and they have not discovered thine iniquity, to bring again thy captivity: but have seen for thee burdens of vanity and causes of banishment.
Proroci tvoji prorokovaše ti laž i bezumlje, i ne otkrivaše bezakonja tvojega da bi odvratili ropstvo tvoje; nego ti kazivaše utvare lažne i koje æe te prognati.
15 All that pass by clap their hands at thee; they hiss and wag their head at the daughter of Jerusalem, [saying]: Is this the city that men called The perfection of beauty, The joy of the whole earth?
Pljeskaju rukama nad tobom svi koji prolaze, zvižde i mašu glavom za kæerju Jerusalimskom: to li je grad, za koji govorahu da je prava ljepota, radost svoj zemlji?
16 All thine enemies have opened their mouth wide against thee; 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.
Razvaljuju usta na te svi neprijatelji tvoji, zvižde i škrguæu zubima govoreæi: proždrijesmo; ovo je doista dan koji èekasmo; doèekasmo, vidjesmo.
17 The LORD hath done that which he devised; he hath fulfilled his word that he commanded in the days of old; he hath thrown down, and hath not pitied: and he hath caused the enemy to rejoice over thee, he hath exalted the horn of thine adversaries.
Uèini Gospod što naumi, ispuni rijeè svoju, koju kaza odavna; razori nemilice, i razveseli tobom neprijatelja, podiže rog protivnicima tvojim.
18 Their heart cried unto the Lord: O wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears run down like a river day and night; give thyself no respite; let not the apple of thine eye cease.
Vièe srce njihovo ka Gospodu: zide kæeri Sionske, proljevaj potokom suze dan i noæ, ne daj sebi mira, i zjenica oka tvojega da ne staje.
19 Arise, cry out in the night, at the beginning of the watches; pour out thine heart like water before the face of the Lord: lift up thy hands toward him for the life of thy young children, that faint for hunger at the top of every street.
Ustani, vièi obnoæ; u poèetku straže, proljevaj srce svoje kao vodu pred Gospodom, podiži k njemu ruke svoje za dušu djece svoje koja obamiru od gladi na uglovima svojih ulica.
20 See, O LORD, and behold, to whom thou hast done thus! shall the women eat their fruit, the children that are dandled in the hands? shall the priest and the prophet be slain in the sanctuary of the Lord?
Pogledaj, Gospode, i vidi, kome si ovako uèinio. Eda li žene jedu porod svoj, djecu koju nose u naruèju? eda li se ubija u svetinji Gospodnjoj sveštenik i prorok?
21 The youth and the old man lie on the ground in the streets; my virgins and my young men are fallen by the sword: thou hast slain them in the day of thine anger; thou hast slaughtered, [and] not pitied.
Leže na zemlji po ulicama djeca i starci, djevojke moje i mladiæi moji padoše od maèa, pobio si ih u dan gnjeva svojega i poklao ne žaleæi.
22 Thou hast called, as in the day of a solemn assembly, my terrors on every side, and there was none that escaped or remained in the day of the LORD’S anger: those that I have dandled and brought up hath mine enemy consumed.
Sazvao si kao na praznik strahote moje otsvuda, i u dan gnjeva Gospodnjega niko ne uteèe niti osta. Koje na ruku nosih i othranih, njih mi neprijatelj moj pobi.
