< Jeremiah 17 >

1 The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond: it is graven 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 While their children remember their altars and their groves by the green trees 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, I will give thy substance and all thy treasures to the spoil, and thy high places for sin, throughout all thy borders.
Goro s poljem, daæu imanje tvoje, sve blago tvoje daæu da se razgrabi, visine tvoje, za grijeh po svijem meðama tvojim.
4 And thou, even thyself, shall discontinue from thy heritage that I gave thee; and I will cause thee to serve thy enemies in the land which thou knowest not: for ye have kindled a fire in my anger, which shall burn for ever.
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 the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.
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 For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.
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 that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.
Blago èovjeku koji se uzda u Gospoda i kome je Gospod uzdanica.
8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be anxious in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding 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 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
Srce je prijevarno više svega i opako; ko æe ga poznati?
10 I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and 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 the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool.
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 glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.
Mjesto je svetinje naše prijesto slave, visoko mjesto od poèetka.
13 O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters.
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 me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.
Iscijeli me, Gospode, i biæu iscijeljen; izbavi me, i biæu izbavljen, jer si ti hvala moja.
15 Behold, they say to me, Where is the word of the LORD? let it come now.
Gle, oni mi govore: gdje je rijeè Gospodnja? Neka doðe.
16 As for me, I have not hastened from being a shepherd to follow thee: neither have I desired the woeful day; thou knowest: that which was uttered by my lips was right before thee.
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 Be not a terror to me: thou art my hope in the day of evil.
Ne budi mi strah, ti si utoèište moje u zlu.
18 Let them be confounded that persecute me, but let not me be confounded: let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed: bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction.
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 the LORD to me; Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people, by which the kings of Judah come in, and by which they go out, and 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 And say to them, Hear ye the word of the LORD, ye kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter by these gates:
I reci im: èujte rijeè Gospodnju, carevi Judini i svi Judejci i svi Jerusalimljani, koji ulazite na ova vrata.
21 Thus saith the LORD; Take heed to yourselves, and bear no burden on the sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem;
Ovako veli Gospod: èuvajte se da ne nosite bremena u subotu i ne unosite na vrata Jerusalimska.
22 Neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on the sabbath day, neither do ye any work, but hallow ye 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 But they obeyed not, neither inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, nor receive instruction.
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 diligently hearken to me, saith the LORD, to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the sabbath day, but hallow the sabbath day, to do no work in it;
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 there enter into the gates of this city kings and princes sitting upon 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 for ever.
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 from the cities of Judah, and from the places about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the plain, and from the mountains, and from the south, bringing burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and meat offerings, and incense, and bringing sacrifices of praise, to the house of the LORD.
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 to me to hallow the sabbath day, and not to bear a burden, even entering at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day; then will I kindle a fire in its gates, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it 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.
