Lamentations 2
1 How has the Lord covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud in his anger! He has cast the beauty of Israel down from heaven to the earth, and hasn’t remembered his footstool in the day of his anger.
Како обастре Господ облаком у гневу свом кћер сионску! Сврже с неба на земљу славу Израиљеву, и не опомену се подножја ногу својих у дан гнева свог!
2 The Lord has swallowed up all the dwellings of Jacob without pity. He has thrown down in his wrath the strongholds of the daughter of Judah. He has brought them down to the ground. He has profaned the kingdom and its princes.
Господ потре немилице све станове Јаковљеве, развали у гневу свом градове кћери Јудине, и на земљу обори, оскврни царство и кнезове његове.
3 He has cut off all the horn of Israel in fierce anger. He has drawn back his right hand from before the enemy. He has burnt up Jacob like a flaming fire, which devours all around.
Одби у жестоком гневу сав рог Израиљу, обрати натраг десницу своју од непријатеља, и распали се на Јакова као огањ пламени, који прождире све око себе.
4 He has bent his bow like an enemy. He has stood with his right hand as an adversary. He has killed all that were pleasant to the eye. In the tent of the daughter of Zion, he has poured out his wrath like fire.
Натеже лук свој као непријатељ, подиже десницу своју као противник, и поби све што беше драго очима; на шатор кћери сионске просу као огањ гнев свој.
5 The Lord has become as an enemy. He has swallowed up Israel. He has swallowed up all her palaces. He has destroyed his strongholds. He has multiplied mourning and lamentation in the daughter of Judah.
Господ поста као непријатељ; потре Израиља, потре све дворе његове, раскопа све градове његове, и умножи кћери Јудиној жалост и јад.
6 He has violently taken away his tabernacle, as if it were a garden. He has destroyed his place of assembly. The LORD has caused solemn assembly and Sabbath to be forgotten in Zion. In the indignation of his anger, he has despised the king and the priest.
Развали му ограду као врту; потре место састанцима његовим; Господ врже у заборав на Сиону празнике и суботу, и у жестини гнева свог одбаци цара и свештеника.
7 The Lord has cast off his altar. He has abhorred his sanctuary. He has given the walls of her palaces into the hand of the enemy. They have made a noise in the LORD’s house, as in the day of a solemn assembly.
Одбаци Господ олтар свој, омрзе на светињу своју, предаде у руке непријатељима зидове двора сионских; стаде их вика у дому Господњем као на празник.
8 The LORD has purposed to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion. He has stretched out the line. He has not withdrawn his hand from destroying; He has made the rampart and wall lament. They languish together.
Господ науми да раскопа зид кћери сионске, растеже уже, и не одврати руке своје да не затре, и ојади опкоп и зид, изнемогоше скупа.
9 Her gates have sunk into the ground. He has destroyed and broken her bars. Her king and her princes are amongst the nations where the law is not. Yes, her prophets find no vision from the LORD.
Утонуше у земљу врата њена, поломи и потре преворнице њене; цар њен и кнезови њени међу народима су; закона нема, и пророци њени не добијају утваре од Господа.
10 The elders of the daughter of Zion sit on the ground. They keep silence. They have cast up dust on their heads. They have clothed themselves with sackcloth. The virgins of Jerusalem hang down their heads to the ground.
Старешине кћери сионске седе на земљи и ћуте, посуле су прахом главу и припасале кострет; обориле су к земљи главе своје девојке јерусалимске.
11 My eyes fail with tears. My heart is troubled. My bile is poured on the earth, because of the destruction of the daughter of my people, because the young children and the infants swoon in the streets of the city.
Ишчилеше ми очи од суза, утроба се моја усколебала, просипа се на земљу јетра моја од погибли кћери народа мог, јер деца и која сисају обамиру на улицама градским.
12 They ask their mothers, “Where is grain and wine?” when they swoon as the wounded in the streets of the city, when their soul is poured out into their mothers’ bosom.
Говоре матерама својим: Где је жито и вино? Обамиру као рањеници на улицама градским, и испуштају душу своју у наручју матера својих.
13 What shall I testify to you? What shall I liken to you, daughter of Jerusalem? What shall I compare to you, that I may comfort you, virgin daughter of Zion? For your breach is as big as the sea. Who can heal you?
Кога ћу ти узети за сведока? С чим ћу те изједначити, кћери јерусалимска? Какву ћу ти прилику наћи, да те утешим, девојко, кћери сионска? Јер је несрећа твоја велика као море, ко ће те исцелити?
14 Your prophets have seen false and foolish visions for you. They have not uncovered your iniquity, to reverse your captivity, but have seen for you false revelations and causes of banishment.
Пророци твоји пророковаше ти лаж и безумље, и не откриваше безакоња твог да би одвратили ропство твоје; него ти казиваше утваре лажне и које ће те прогнати.
15 All that pass by clap their hands at you. They hiss and wag their head at the daughter of Jerusalem, saying, “Is this the city that men called ‘The perfection of beauty, the joy of the whole earth’?”
Пљескају рукама над тобом сви који пролазе, звижде и машу главом за кћерју јерусалимском: То ли је град, за који говораху да је права лепота, радост свој земљи?
16 All your enemies have opened their mouth wide against you. They hiss and gnash their teeth. They say, “We have swallowed her up. Certainly this is the day that we looked for. We have found it. We have seen it.”
Разваљују уста на те сви непријатељи твоји, звижде и шкргућу зубима говорећи: Прождресмо; ово је доиста дан који чекасмо; дочекасмо, видесмо.
17 The LORD has done that which he planned. He has fulfilled his word that he commanded in the days of old. He has thrown down, and has not pitied. He has caused the enemy to rejoice over you. He has exalted the horn of your adversaries.
Учини Господ шта науми, испуни реч своју, коју каза одавна; разори немилице и развесели тобом непријатеља, подиже рог противницима твојим.
18 Their heart cried to the Lord. O wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears run down like a river day and night. Give yourself no relief. Don’t let your eyes rest.
Виче срце њихово ка Господу: Зиде кћери сионске, проливај потоком сузе дан и ноћ, не дај себи мира, и зеница ока твог да не стаје.
19 Arise, cry out in the night, at the beginning of the watches! Pour out your heart like water before the face of the Lord. Lift up your hands towards him for the life of your young children, who faint for hunger at the head of every street.
Устани, вичи обноћ, у почетку страже, проливај срце своје као воду пред Господом, подижи к Њему руке своје за душу деце своје која обамиру од глади на угловима својих улица.
20 “Look, LORD, and see to whom you have done thus! Should the women eat their offspring, the children that they held and bounced on their knees? Should the priest and the prophet be killed in the sanctuary of the Lord?
Погледај, Господе, и види, коме си овако учинио. Еда ли жене једу пород свој, децу коју носе у наручју? Еда ли се убија у светињи Господњој свештеник и пророк?
21 “The youth and the old man lie on the ground in the streets. My virgins and my young men have fallen by the sword. You have killed them in the day of your anger. You have slaughtered, and not pitied.
Леже на земљи по улицама деца и старци, девојке моје и младићи моји падоше од мача, побио си их у дан гнева свог и поклао не жалећи.
22 “You have called, as in the day of a solemn assembly, my terrors on every side. There was no one that escaped or remained in the day of the LORD’s anger. My enemy has consumed those whom I have cared for and brought up.
Сазвао си као на празник страхоте моје од свуда, и у дан гнева Господњег нико не утече нити оста. Које на руку носих и отхраних, њих ми непријатељ мој поби.
