< Jeremiah 17 >

1 The sin of Judah, is written With a stylus of iron, With the point of a diamond: It is engraved Upon the tablet of their heart, And upon the horns of your altars;
Grijeh je Judin zapisan gvozdenom pisaljkom i vrhom od dijamanta, urezan je na ploèi srca njihova i na rogovima oltara vaših,
2 So long as their sons remember their altars, and their Sacred Stems, By the green tree, —Upon the high hills,
Da se sinovi njihovi sjeæaju oltara njihovijeh i lugova njihovijeh pod zelenijem drvetima, na visokim humovima.
3 O my mountain in the field Thy substance all thy treasures, for a prey, will I give: Thy high places for sin, within all thy bounds.
Goro s poljem, daæu imanje tvoje, sve blago tvoje daæu da se razgrabi, visine tvoje, za grijeh po svijem meðama tvojim.
4 So shalt thou even of thyself, suffer to rest the inheritance which I gave thee, Seeing that I will cause thee to serve thine enemies, in the land which thou knowest not; For, a fire, have ye kindled in mine anger, Unto times age-abiding, shall it burn.
I ti æeš i koji su s tobom ostaviti našljedstvo svoje, koje sam ti dao, i uèiniæu da služiš neprijateljima svojim u zemlji koje ne poznaješ; jer ste raspalili oganj gnjeva mojega, koji æe gorjeti dovijeka.
5 Thus, saith Yahweh Accursed is the man—Who trusteth in a son of earth, And hath made flesh his arm, —And whose heart from Yahweh, turneth aside:
Ovako veli Gospod: da je proklet èovjek koji se uzda u èovjeka i koji stavlja tijelo sebi za mišicu, a od Gospoda otstupa srce njegovo.
6 Therefore shall he become as a shrub in the waste plain, Neither shall he perceive when good cometh, But shall inhabit Parched places in a wilderness, A land of salt that cannot be dwelt in.
Jer æe biti kao vrijes u pustinji, koji ne osjeæa kad doðe dobro, nego stoji u pustinji, na suhim mjestima u zemlji slanoj i u kojoj se ne živi.
7 Blessed is the man Who trusteth in Yahweh, To whom Yahweh is his ground of confidence;
Blago èovjeku koji se uzda u Gospoda i kome je Gospod uzdanica.
8 For he shall become like a tree planted by waters, And, by a stream, shall he send out his roots, Neither shall he perceive when heat cometh, But, his leaf shall continue green: Even in a year of dearth, shall he not be anxious, Neither shall he cease from bearing fruit.
Jer æe biti kao drvo usaðeno kraj vode i koje niz potok pušta žile svoje, koje ne osjeæa kad doðe pripeka, nego mu se list zeleni, i sušne godine ne brine se i ne prestaje raðati rod.
9 Deceitful is the heart above all things And, dangerously wayward, —Who can know it?
Srce je prijevarno više svega i opako; ko æe ga poznati?
10 I—Yahweh, Searching the heart, Testing the affections; And giving to every man According to his way, According to the fruit of his doings.
Ja Gospod ispitujem srca i iskušavam bubrege, da bih dao svakome prema putovima njegovijem i po plodu djela njegovijeh.
11 As a partridge gathereth eggs she did not lay, [So] is he that maketh riches but not with justice, —In the midst of his days, shall he leave them, And in his latter end, prove to have been base.
Kao što jarebica leži na jajima ali ne izleže, tako ko sabira bogatstvo ali s nepravdom, u polovini dana svojih ostaviæe ga i najposlije æe biti lud.
12 A throne of glory, exalted from the beginning, hath been the place of our sanctuary.
Mjesto je svetinje naše prijesto slave, visoko mjesto od poèetka.
13 Thou hope of Israel Yahweh, All who forsake thee, shall turn pale, —Yea, all who depart from me, in the ground, shall be written, For they have forsaken a fountain of living water, even Yahweh.
Nade Izrailjev, Gospode! svi koji te ostavljaju neka se posrame; koji otstupaju od mene, neka se zapišu na zemlji, jer ostaviše izvor vode žive, Gospoda.
14 Heal thou me O Yahweh, that I may be healed, Save me that I may be saved, —For, my praise, thou art!
Iscijeli me, Gospode, i biæu iscijeljen; izbavi me, i biæu izbavljen, jer si ti hvala moja.
15 Lo! they, are saying unto me, —Where is the word of Yahweh? Pray thee let it come to pass!
Gle, oni mi govore: gdje je rijeè Gospodnja? Neka doðe.
16 But as for me, I have neither forced myself away from tending the flock after thee, Nor yet for the woeful day, have I longed—thou, knowest, —That which came out of my lips, before thy face, was uttered.
A ja se ne zatezah iæi za tobom kao pastir, i dana žalosnoga ne željeh, ti znaš; što je god izašlo iz usta mojih, pred tobom je.
17 Do not thou become to me a terror, —My refuge, art thou, in the day of calamity.
Ne budi mi strah, ti si utoèište moje u zlu.
18 Let my persecutors, turn pale, but let not me, turn pale, Let, them, be terrified, but let not, me, be terrified, —Bring thou upon them a day of calamity, And with a double fracture, destroy them.
Neka se posrame koji me gone, a ja ne; neka se oni uplaše, a ja ne; pusti na njih zli dan, i dvostrukim polomom polomi ih.
19 Thus, said Yahweh unto me—Go and stand in the gate of the sons of the people, through which the kings of Judah enter in, and through which they come out, —also in all the gates of Jerusalem.
Ovako mi reèe Gospod: idi, i stani na vrata sinova narodnijeh, na koja ulaze carevi Judini i na koja izlaze, i na svaka vrata Jerusalimska.
20 Then shalt thou say unto them—Hear ye the word of Yahweh Ye kings of Judah and all Judah, And all ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, —who enter in through these gates:
I reci im: èujte rijeè Gospodnju, carevi Judini i svi Judejci i svi Jerusalimljani, koji ulazite na ova vrata.
21 Thus, saith Yahweh, Take heed unto your souls, —And do not bear any burden on the sabbath day, Nor bring it in through the gates of Jerusalem, —
Ovako veli Gospod: èuvajte se da ne nosite bremena u subotu i ne unosite na vrata Jerusalimska.
22 Neither shall ye take forth any burden out of your houses on the sabbath day, Nor any manner of work, shall ye do, —But ye shall hallow the sabbath day, As I commanded your fathers.
I ne iznosite bremena iz kuæa svojih u subotu, i nikakoga posla ne radite, nego svetite subotu, kao što sam zapovjedio ocima vašim.
23 Howbeit they hearkened not, neither inclined their ear, —but stiffened their neck, that they might not hearken, neither receive correction.
Ali ne poslušaše niti prignuše uha svojega, nego otvrdnuše vratom svojim da ne poslušaju i ne prime nauke.
24 And it shall come to pass, —If ye will, indeed hearken, unto me Declareth Yahweh, To bring in no burden through the gates of this city, on the sabbath day, —But to hallow the sabbath day, by not doing thereon any manner of work,
Ako me poslušate, govori Gospod, da ne nosite bremena na vrata ovoga grada u subotu, nego svetite subotu ne radeæi u nju nikakoga posla,
25 Then shall enter in through the gates of this city, Kings and princes Sitting on the throne of David, Riding in chariots and on horses They, and their princes, The men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, And this city shall remain unto times age-abiding.
Tada æe ulaziti na vrata grada ovoga carevi i knezovi, koji sjede na prijestolu Davidovu, na kolima i na konjma, oni i knezovi njihovi, Judejci i Jerusalimljani, i stajaæe ovaj grad dovijeka.
26 And they shall come in—Out of the cities of Judah and Out of the places round about Jerusalem, and Out of the land of Benjamin, and Out of the lowlands, and out of the hill country, and Out of the South, Bringing in ascending-offering, and peace-offering, and meal-offering, and frankincense, —Even they who bring in a thank-offering into the house of Yahweh,
I dolaziæe iz gradova Judinijeh i iz okoline Jerusalimske, i iz zemlje Venijaminove, i iz ravnice i iz gora i s juga, i donosiæe žrtve paljenice i prinose s darom i kadom, i žrtve zahvalne donosiæe u dom Gospodnji.
27 But, if ye will not hearken unto me—To hallow the sabbath day, And to bear no burden and bring in through the gates of Jerusalem, on the sabbath day, Then will I kindle a fire within her gates, And it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, And shall not be quenched.
Ako li me ne poslušate da svetite subotu i ne nosite bremena ulazeæi na vrata Jerusalimska u subotu, onda æu raspaliti oganj na vratima njegovijem, koji æe upaliti dvorove Jerusalimske i neæe se ugasiti.
