Malachi 2
1 And now [is] to you the commandment this O priests.
A sad vas opominjem, svećenici!
2 If not you will listen and if not you will put on heart to give honor to name my he says Yahweh of hosts and I will send on you the curse and I will curse blessings your and also I have cursed it for not you [are] putting on heart.
Ako ne budete poslušali, ako ne budete k srcu uzeli da proslavite Ime moje - govori Jahve nad Vojskama - kletvu ću na vas svaliti i proklet ću vaš blagoslov. I već ga prokleh jer to niste k srcu uzeli.
3 Here I [am] about to rebuke of you the offspring and I will spread dung on faces your [the] dung of festivals your and someone will carry away you with it.
I slomit ću vam ruku, bacit ću vam u lice izmetine, izmetine vaših svetkovina, i s njima ću vas splaviti.
4 And you will know that I have sent to you the commandment this to be covenant my with Levi he says Yahweh of hosts.
Po tom ćete znati: to je bila moja opomena da ostane Savez moj s Levijem - govori Jahve nad Vojskama.
5 Covenant my - it was with him life and well-being and I gave them to him fear and he feared me and because of name my he was in awe he.
A moj Savez s njim, to bijaše život i mir - ja sam mu ih dao: bijaše to strah - i on me se bojao, Imena se moga plašio.
6 Instruction of truth it was in mouth his and unrighteousness not it was found on lips his in peace and in uprightness he walked with me and many [people] he turned away from iniquity.
Zakon istine bijaše u njegovim ustima i pakost mu ne kaljaše usana; u miru i pravičnosti hodio je sa mnom i mnoge je od grijeha odvratio.
7 For [the] lips of a priest they will preserve knowledge and instruction people will seek from mouth his for [is] [the] messenger of Yahweh of hosts he.
Da, usne svećenikove treba da čuvaju znanje, a iz njegovih usta treba tražiti Zakon: ta on je glasnik Jahve nad Vojskama.
8 And you you have turned aside from the way you have caused to stumble many [people] by the instruction you have corrupted [the] covenant of Levi he says Yahweh of hosts.
Ali vi ste s puta zašli, učinili ste da se mnogi o Zakon spotiču, raskinuli ste Savez Levijev - govori Jahve nad Vojskama.
9 And also I I have made you despised and lowly to all the people according to [the] mouth of that not you [are] keeping ways my and [you are] lifting up faces in instruction.
Zato učinih da vas preziru i ponizuju svi narodi jer se putova mojih vi držali niste, nego ste bili pristrani primjenjujuć Zakon.
10 ¿ Not [does] a father one [belong] to all of us ¿ not God one did he create us why? do we deal treacherously each with brother his to profane [the] covenant of ancestors our.
Nemamo li svi jednog Oca? Nije li nas jedan Bog stvorio? Zašto smo onda jedan drugome nevjerni te skvrnimo Savez svojih otaca?
11 It has acted treacherously Judah and an abomination it has been done in Israel and in Jerusalem for - it has profaned Judah [the] sanctuary of Yahweh which he loves and it has married a daughter of a god of foreignness.
Iznevjerio se Juda: učinili su sramotu u Izraelu i Jeruzalemu, jer Juda je oskvrnuo Svetinju, Jahvi dragu, i ženi se kćerju tuđega božanstva.
12 May he cut off Yahweh the person who he does it a protector and [one who] answers from [the] tents of Jacob and [one who] brings near an offering to Yahweh of hosts.
Svakog tko tako učini, ma tko bio on, nek iskorijeni Jahve iz šatora Jakovljevih i izmeđ onih koji prinose žrtvu Jahvi nad Vojskama!
13 And this second [thing] you do to cover tear[s] [the] altar of Yahweh weeping and groaning from not still turning to the offering and to take pleasure from hand your.
I ovo još vi činite: zalijevate suzama Jahvin žrtvenik tužeći i ridajući, jer on više neće da se žr tvi prikloni, iz ruke mu vaše ona nije ugodna.
14 And you say concerning what? on for Yahweh he has testified between you and between - [the] wife of youth your whom you you have dealt treacherously with her and she [was] companion your and [the] wife of covenant your.
I vi pitate: “Zašto?” Zato što je Jahve bio svjedok između tebe i žene mladosti tvoje kojoj si nevjeran premda ti drugarica bijaše i žena tvoga saveza.
15 And not one he made and a remnant of spirit to him and what? [was] the one seeking offspring of God and you will take heed in spirit your and with [the] wife of youth your may not anyone deal treacherously.
Nije li On načinio jedno jedino biće dahom životnim obdareno? A što to jedino biće traži? Božanski naraštaj! Poštuj dakle život svoj i ne budi nevjeran ženi svoje mladosti.
16 For he hates sending away he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel and he will cover violence over clothing his he says Yahweh of hosts and you will take heed in spirit your and not you must act treacherously.
Jer ja mrzim otpuštanje žena - govori Jahve, Bog Izraelov - i onog koji nevjerom haljine svoje kalja - govori Jahve nad Vojskama! Poštujte dakle život svoj, ne budite nevjerni!
17 You have wearied Yahweh with words your and you say how? did we weary [him] by saying you every [one who] does evil [is] good - in [the] eyes of Yahweh and in them he he delights or where? [is] [the] God of justice.
Dosađujete Jahvi svojim riječima, a pitate: “U čemu mu dosađujemo?” Time što govorite: “Svi koji zlo čine dobro su viđeni u očima Jahvinim i takvi su mu mili!” ili: “Gdje je Bog pravde?”
