Jeremiah 11
1 This is [another] message that Yahweh told me:
Rijeè koja doðe Jeremiji od Gospoda govoreæi:
2 “Listen to the agreement that I made with [the ancestors of] the people of Jerusalem and [the other cities in] Judah. Then remind them of [that agreement].
Slušajte rijeèi ovoga zavjeta, i kazujte ljudima Judinijem i stanovnicima Jerusalimskim.
3 Then tell them that [I], Yahweh, the God whom the Israeli [people worship], said that I will curse everyone who does not obey what was written in that agreement that I made with them.
I reci im: ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: proklet da je ko ne posluša rijeèi ovoga zavjeta,
4 It is the same agreement that I made with their ancestors when I brought them out of Egypt. [What happened to them in Egypt was terrible; it was as though they were] living in a hot furnace [MET]. When I brought them out of Egypt, I told them to obey me, and to do everything that I had commanded them to do. [I also told them] that if they obeyed me, they would be my people and I would be their God.
Koji zapovjedih ocima vašim kad ih izvedoh iz zemlje Misirske iz peæi gvozdene govoreæi: slušajte glas moj i tvorite ovo sve kako vam zapovijedam, pa æete mi biti narod i ja æu vam biti Bog,
5 [Now tell these people that if they obey me], I will do what I promised to do for their ancestors. I will enable them to continue living in this very fertile [IDM] land in which they now live.” I replied, “Yahweh, I hope that what you said will happen.”
Da bih ispunio zakletvu kojom se zakleh ocima vašim da æu im dati zemlju u kojoj teèe mlijeko i med, kako se vidi danas. A ja odgovorih i rekoh: amin, Gospode.
6 Then Yahweh said to me, “Go into the streets of Jerusalem and to the [other] cities in Judah. Proclaim my message to the people. Tell them to listen to the agreement [that I made with their ancestors], and to obey it.
Potom reèe mi Gospod: kazuj sve ove rijeèi po gradovima Judinijem i po ulicama Jerusalimskim govoreæi: slušajte rijeèi ovoga zavjeta, i izvršujte ih.
7 When I brought their ancestors out of Egypt, I solemnly pleaded with them many times to obey me, and I am still pleading with them now.
Jer tvrdo zasvjedoèavah ocima vašim otkad ih izvedoh iz zemlje Misirske do danas, zarana jednako govoreæi: slušajte glas moj.
8 But they did not obey me or [even] pay any attention to me. Everyone continued to be stubborn and to do the evil things that they wanted to do. I commanded them to do what was written in the agreement, but they refused. So I punished them in all the ways that I promised that I would.”
Ali ne poslušaše i ne prignuše uha svojega, nego hodiše svaki za mislima zloga srca svojega; zato pustih na njih sve rijeèi ovoga zavjeta, koji zapovjedih da vrše a oni ne vršiše.
9 Then Yahweh said to me, “The people of Jerusalem and [the other cities in] Judah are rebelling against me.
Tada mi reèe Gospod: buna je meðu ljudima Judinijem i stanovnicima Jerusalimskim.
10 Their ancestors refused to do what I told them to do, and [now] these people have returned to committing the sins that their ancestors committed. They are worshiping other gods. The people of Israel disobeyed the agreement that I made with their ancestors, and [now] the people of Judah have done the same thing.
Vratili su se na bezakonja starijeh svojih, koji ne htješe slušati mojih rijeèi, i idu za drugim bogovima, te im služe; dom Izrailjev i dom Judin pokvariše zavjet moj, koji uèinih s ocima njihovijem.
11 So now I, Yahweh, am warning them that I will cause them to experience disasters, and they will not escape them. And when they cry out for me [to help them], I will not pay attention.
Zato ovako veli Gospod: evo, ja æu pustiti na njih zlo, iz kojega neæe moæi izaæi, i vapiæe k meni, ali ih neæu uslišiti.
12 When that happens, the people in Jerusalem and [other] cities in Judah will [offer sacrifices and] burn incense to their gods and ask for their help, but those gods will not be able to save them when those disasters come to them.
Tada æe gradovi Judini i stanovnici Jerusalimski iæi i vapiti k bogovima kojima kade, ali im neæe pomoæi u nevolji njihovoj.
13 There are more gods in Judah than there are towns in Judah, and the people of Jerusalem have erected as many altars to burn incense [to those gods] as there are streets in Jerusalem.
Jer imaš bogova, Judo, koliko gradova, i koliko ima ulica u Jerusalimu, toliko podigoste oltara sramotnijeh, oltara, da kadite Valu.
14 Jeremiah, do not pray for these people, and do not plead with me to rescue them. If you plead with me, I will not pay attention; and if they cry out to me for help when they are in distress, I will not listen to them.”
Ti se dakle ne moli za taj narod, i ne podiži vike ni molbe za njih, jer ih neæu uslišiti kad zavapiju k meni u nevolji svojoj.
15 Then Yahweh said, “The people [of Judah] whom I love certainly no longer have [RHQ] a right to come to my temple, because they continually do many evil things. [They think that] continually making sacrifices of meat to me certainly will [RHQ] protect them from disasters, with the result that they will be able to rejoice.
Što æe mili moj u domu mom, kad èini grdilo s mnogima, i sveto meso otide od tebe, i veseliš se kad zlo èiniš?
16 I previously said that they were like an olive tree full of green leaves with a lot of good olives on it, but [now I will send their enemies to attack] them furiously; [it is as though] I will break off their branches, and [their city] will be destroyed by fire.
Gospod te nazva maslinom zelenom, lijepom radi dobroga roda; ali s hukom velikoga vjetra raspali oganj oko nje, i grane joj se polomiše.
17 [It is as though] the people of Judah and Israel were a beautiful olive tree that I, the Commander of the armies of angels, planted, but [now], by burning incense to [their god] Baal, they have caused me to become [very] angry. So [now] I have decided to destroy them.”
Jer Gospod nad vojskama, koji te je posadio, izreèe zlo po te, za zloæu doma Izrailjeva i doma Judina, koju èiniše meðu sobom da bi me razgnjevili kadeæi Valu.
18 Yahweh revealed to me that [my enemies] were planning to kill me.
Gospod mi objavi, te znam; ti mi pokaza djela njihova.
19 [Before he did that], I was like a lamb that was being led away to be slaughtered; I did not know what they were planning to do. I did not know that they were saying, “Let’s get rid of this tree and its fruit,” so [I did not know] that they intended to kill me, in order that no one would remember me [MTY].
A ja bijah kao jagnje i tele koje se vodi na klanje, jer ne znadijah da se dogovaraju na me: oborimo drvo s rodom njegovijem, i istrijebimo ga iz zemlje živijeh, da mu se ime ne spominje više.
20 [Then I prayed], “Commander of the armies of angels, you judge people justly/fairly, and you examine everything that we are thinking [DOU]. Allow me to watch you getting revenge on the people [who want to kill me], because I trust that you will do for me what is right.”
Ali, Gospode nad vojskama, sudijo pravedni, koji ispituješ bubrege i srce, daj da vidim osvetu tvoju na njima, jer tebi kazah parbu svoju.
21 It was the men of [my own town], Anathoth, who wanted to kill me, and they told me that they would kill me if I did not stop prophesying what Yahweh told me to say.
Zato ovako veli Gospod za Anatoæane, koji traže dušu tvoju govoreæi: ne prorokuj u ime Gospodnje, da ne pogineš od naših ruku;
22 So the Commander of the armies of angels said [about them], “I will punish them. Their young men will be killed in wars, and their children will die because they have no food.
Zato ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: evo, ja æu ih pohoditi; mladiæi æe njihovi izginuti od maèa, sinovi njihovi i kæeri njihove izginuæe od gladi.
23 I have set a time when I will bring disasters to the people of Anathoth, and when that happens, none of them will remain alive.”
I neæe biti od njih ostatka; jer æu pustiti zlo na Anatoæane kad ih pohodim.
