Jeremiah 4
1 If you will return O Israel - [the] utterance of Yahweh to me you will return and if you will remove detestable things your from before me and not you will waver.
“Ako se, Izraele, želiš vratiti - riječ je Jahvina - k meni se vrati; ukloniš li grozote svoje, više ne moraš bježati od mene.
2 And you will swear [by] [the] life of Yahweh in faithfulness in justice and in righteousness and they will bless themselves by him nations and in him they will boast.
Ako se zakuneš: 'Živoga mi Jahve!' istinito, pravo i pravedno, narodi će se blagoslivljati u tebi i tobom se dičiti.”
3 For thus - he says Yahweh to [the] man of Judah and to Jerusalem plow of you unplowed ground and may not you sow to thorns.
Jer ovako govori Jahve Judejcima i Jeruzalemcima: “Prokrčite sebi prljuše, ne sijte po trnjacima.
4 Circumcise yourselves to Yahweh and remove [the] foreskins of heart your O man of Judah and [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem lest it should go forth like fire rage my and it will burn and there not [will be one who] extinguishes because of [the] wickedness of deeds your.
Obrežite se Jahvi, skinite obrezak sa srca svojega, Judejci i Jeruzalemci, jer će bijes moj buknuti kao vatra i gorjet će, a nikog da ugasi, zbog zlodjela i opačina što ih počiniste.
5 Declare in Judah and in Jerusalem make a proclamation and say (blow *Q(K)*) a trumpet in the land call out fill and say gather yourselves so let us go to [the] cities of fortification.
Objavite u Judeji, razglasite u Jeruzalemu! Trubite u rog širom zemlje, vičite punim glasom i recite: 'Svi na okup! Zavucimo se u gradove svoje utvrđene!'
6 Lift up a standard Zion towards take refuge may not you stand still for calamity I [am] about to bring from [the] north and destruction great.
Dižite znak prema Sionu! Bježite! Nemojte zastajati! Jer dovodim nesreću sa Sjevera, veliku propast.
7 It has gone up a lion from thicket its and a destroyer of nations he has set out he has gone out from place his to make land your into a waste cities your they will fall in ruins from not inhabitant.
Lav se podiže iz čestara svoga, zatornik naroda izađe iz svog mjesta, krenu da zemlju tvoju opustoši: gradove će tvoje razoriti, nestat će im žitelja.
8 On this gird yourself sackcloth mourn and wail for not it has turned back [the] burning of [the] anger of Yahweh from us.
Zato se u kostrijet ogrnite, kukajte, naričite, jer rasplamtjela jarost Jahvina nas nije mimoišla.
9 And it will be on the day that [the] utterance of Yahweh it will perish [the] heart of the king and [the] heart of the officials and they will be appalled the priests and the prophets they will be astounded.
U dan onaj - riječ je Jahvina - klonut će srce kralju i knezovima. Svećenici će se zapanjiti, proroci umuknuti.
10 And I said alas! - O Lord Yahweh truly certainly you have deceived the people this and Jerusalem saying peace it will belong to you and it will reach a sword to the throat.
I reći će: 'Ah, Jahve, Gospodine, zaista nas teško prevari kad reče: 'Uživat ćete mir' a sad nam je mač pod grlom.'
11 At the time that it will be said to the people this and to Jerusalem a wind scorching bare heights in the wilderness [will be] [the] direction of [the] daughter of people my not to winnow and not to cleanse.
U to će se vrijeme reći narodu ovom i Jeruzalemu: Vruć vjetar s pustinjskih sipina puše prema kćeri naroda moga; ali ne da hladi i da pročisti!
12 A wind [too] full for these [things] it will come for me now also I I will speak judgments with them.
Doći će mi vjetar pun prijetnje, i ja ću im tada izreći sud!
13 There! - like clouds he is going up and like the storm-wind chariots his they are swift more than eagles horses his woe! to us for we are devastated.
Gle: diže se k'o oblačine, kola mu slična vihoru, konji brži od orlova. Jao nama! Propadosmo!
14 Wash from evil heart your O Jerusalem so that you may be saved until when? will it remain in inner being your [the] thoughts of wickedness your.
Operi opačinu sa srca svoga, Jeruzaleme, da bi se spasio. Dokle će se u grudima tvojim misli zločinačke gnijezditi?
15 For a voice [is] declaring from Dan and [is] proclaiming trouble from [the] hill country of Ephraim.
Jer glas naviješta od Dana, s gore Efrajimove najavljuje nesreću.
16 Make known to the nations here! proclaim to Jerusalem besiegers [are] coming from [the] land of distance and they have given forth on [the] cities of Judah voice their.
Opomenite, razglasite po Judeji, obznanite Jeruzalemu: neprijatelji dolaze iz daleke zemlje i poklike izvikuju protiv gradova judejskih;
17 Like [those who] guard a field they are on it from round about for me it has been rebellious against [the] utterance of Yahweh.
poput čuvara poljskih okružuju Jeruzalem, jer se odmetnu od mene” - riječ je Jahvina.
18 Conduct your and deeds your they have brought about these [things] to you this [is] wickedness your for it is bitter for it has reached to heart your.
Put tvoj i djela tvoja to ti učiniše. To je tvoja nesreća! Kako je gorka, kako li pogađa u srce!
19 Inward parts my - inward parts my - (I am waiting *Q(K)*) [the] walls of heart my [is] in turmoil to me heart my not I will keep silent for [the] sound of a trumpet (you have heard *Q(K)*) O self my [the] shout of battle.
Utrobo moja! Utrobo moja, bolujem, srce mi se razdire! Dršće mi duša! Ne mogu šutjeti, jer čujem glas roga, poklike bojne.
20 Destruction to destruction it has been proclaimed for it has been devastated all the land suddenly they have been devastated tents my a moment tent curtains my.
Javljaju slom za slomom, sva je zemlja poharana, moji su šatori iznenada opustošeni, u tren oka sva skloništa moja uništena.
21 Until when? will I see a standard will I hear [the] sound of a trumpet.
Dokle ću gledati bojne znakove, slušati pozive roga?
22 For - [is] a fool people my me not they know [are] children fools they and not [are] having understanding they [are] skillful they to do evil and to do good not they know.
Da, bezuman je moj narod, ne poznaju me, djeca su oni nerazumna, ništa ne shvaćaju, mudri su tek za zlodjela, al' činiti dobro ne umiju.
23 I looked at the earth and there! [it was] formlessness and emptiness and to the heavens and there not [was] light their.
Gledam zemlju: pusta je, evo, i prazna, nebesa: svjetlost im iščezla.
24 I looked at the mountains and there! [they were] quaking and all the hills they shook to and fro.
Gledam brda: gle, tresu se, a svi se humci uzdrmali.
25 I looked and there! there not [was] humankind and every bird of the heavens they had fled.
Gledam: evo čovjeka nema, ptice nebeske sve su odletjele.
26 I looked and there! the garden-land [was] wilderness and all cities its they had been pulled down from before Yahweh from before [the] burning of anger his.
Gledam: plodno polje, evo, opustje, sve gradove razori Jahve žestinom gnjeva svoga.
27 For thus he says Yahweh a desolation it will be all the earth and complete destruction not I will make.
Da, ovako govori Jahve: “Sva će zemlja biti poharana, ja ću joj zadati posljednji udarac.
28 On this it will mourn the earth and they will be dark the heavens above on for I have spoken I have resolved and not I have repented and not I will turn back from it.
Na to će se zemlja u crno zaviti, a nebesa, gore, potamnjeti. Jer rekoh, i neću se raskajati, odlučih i neću odustati.
29 From [the] sound of a horseman and a shooter of a bow [is] fleeing every city people will go in the thickets and on the rocks people will go up every city [is] abandoned and there not [is] dwelling in them anyone.
Pred vikom 'Konjanici i strijelci!' sva se zemlja u bijeg dade: bježe u šipražje, penju se na hridi: svi su gradovi napušteni: nigdje više žive duše.
30 (And you *Q(K)*) O devastated [one] what? are you doing that you are dressing scarlet that you ornament yourself ornament[s] of gold that you tear open with eye-paint eyes your for vanity you beautify yourself they have rejected you lovers life your they seek.
A ti, opustošena, što ćeš učiniti? Da se i grimizom zaodjeneš, nakitom zlatnim ukrasiš i oči ličilom izraniš, uzalud se uljepšavaš! Ljubavnici tvoji tebe preziru: traže glavu tvoju.
31 For a sound like a sick [woman] I have heard distress like a [woman] bearing a first child [the] sound of [the] daughter of Zion she is gasping for breath she is spreading out hands her woe! please to me for it is weary self my to murderers.
Da, jauk kao u bolesnice čujem, vrisak kao u one što prvi put rađa; čuj, to kći sionska jeca i pruža ruke: 'Jao meni! Duša mi zamire pod udarcima ubojica!'
