Jeremiah 25
1 The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah (this was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon),
Rijeè koja doðe Jeremiji za sav narod Judin èetvrte godine Joakima sina Josijina cara Judina, a to je prva godina Navuhodonosora cara Vavilonskoga,
2 which Jeremiah the prophet spoke to all the people of Judah, and to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem:
Koju reèe Jeremija prorok svemu narodu Judinu i svijem stanovnicima Jerusalimskim, govoreæi:
3 From the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, even to this day, these twenty-three years, the LORD’s word has come to me, and I have spoken to you, rising up early and speaking; but you have not listened.
Od trinaeste godine Josije sina Amonova cara Judina do danas, za ove dvadeset i tri godine, dolazi mi rijeè Gospodnja i govorih vam zarana jednako, ali ne poslušaste.
4 The LORD has sent to you all his servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them (but you have not listened or inclined your ear to hear),
I sla vam Gospod sve sluge svoje proroke zarana jednako, ali ne poslušaste, niti prignuste uha svojega da biste èuli.
5 saying, “Return now everyone from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that the LORD has given to you and to your fathers, from of old and even forever more.
I govorahu: vratite se svaki sa svojega puta zloga i od zloæe djela svojih, pa æete ostati u zemlji koju dade Gospod vama i ocima vašim od vijeka do vijeka.
6 Don’t go after other gods to serve them or worship them, and don’t provoke me to anger with the work of your hands; then I will do you no harm.”
I ne idite za drugim bogovima da im služite i da im se klanjate, i ne gnjevite me djelom ruku svojih, i neæu vam uèiniti zla.
7 “Yet you have not listened to me,” says the LORD, “that you may provoke me to anger with the work of your hands to your own hurt.”
Ali me ne poslušaste, govori Gospod, nego me gnjeviste djelom ruku svojih na svoje zlo.
8 Therefore the LORD of Hosts says: “Because you have not heard my words,
Zato ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: što ne poslušaste mojih rijeèi,
9 behold, I will send and take all the families of the north,” says the LORD, “and I will send to Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against its inhabitants, and against all these nations around. I will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and perpetual desolations.
Evo, ja æu poslati po sve narode sjeverne, govori Gospod, i po Navuhodonosora cara Vavilonskoga slugu svojega, i dovešæu ih na tu zemlju i na stanovnike njezine, i na sve te narode okolne, koje æu zatrti, i uèiniæu da budu èudo i potsmijeh i pustoš vjeèna.
10 Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the lamp.
I uèiniæu da nestane meðu njima glasa radosna i glasa vesela, glasa ženikova i glasa nevjestina, lupe od žrvanja i svjetlosti od žiška.
11 This whole land will be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations will serve the king of Babylon seventy years.
I sva æe ta zemlja biti pustoš i èudo, i ti æe narodi služiti caru Vavilonskom sedamdeset godina.
12 “It will happen, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation,” says the LORD, “for their iniquity. I will make the land of the Kasdim desolate forever.
A kad se navrši sedamdeset godina, onda æu pohoditi cara Vavilonskoga i onaj narod, govori Gospod, za bezakonje njihovo, i zemlju Haldejsku, i obratiæu je u pustoš vjeènu.
13 I will bring on that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah has prophesied against all the nations.
I pustiæu na tu zemlju sve što sam govorio o njoj, sve što je napisano u ovoj knjizi, što prorokova Jeremija za sve narode.
14 For many nations and great kings will make bondservants of them, even of them. I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the work of their hands.”
Jer æe veliki narodi i silni carevi i njih pokoriti; tada æu im platiti po djelima njihovijem i po onom što su èinili rukama svojim.
15 For the LORD, the God of Israel, says to me: “Take this cup of the wine of wrath from my hand, and cause all the nations to whom I send you to drink it.
Jer ovako mi reèe Gospod Bog Izrailjev: uzmi iz moje ruke èašu vina, ovoga gnjeva, i napoj iz nje sve narode ka kojima te ja pošljem,
16 They will drink, and reel back and forth, and be insane, because of the sword that I will send among them.”
Neka piju i smetu se i polude od oštroga maèa koji æu ja poslati meðu njih.
17 Then I took the cup at the LORD’s hand, and made all the nations to drink, to whom the LORD had sent me:
I uzeh èašu iz ruke Gospodu, i napojih sve te narode, ka kojima me posla Gospod:
18 Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, with its kings and its princes, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, a hissing, and a curse, as it is today;
Jerusalim i gradove Judine i careve njegove i knezove njegove, da budu pustoš i èudo i potsmijeh i uklin, kao što je danas,
19 Pharaoh king of Egypt, with his servants, his princes, and all his people;
Faraona cara Misirskoga i sluge njegove i knezove njegove i sav narod njegov,
20 and all the mixed people, and all the kings of the land of Uz, all the kings of the Philistines, Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod;
I svu mješavinu, i sve careve zemlje Uza, sve careve zemlje Filistejske, i Askalon i Gazu i Akaron i ostatak od Azota,
21 Edom, Moab, and the children of Ammon;
Edomce i Moavce i sinove Amonove,
22 and all the kings of Tyre, all the kings of Sidon, and the kings of the isle which is beyond the sea;
I sve careve Tirske i sve careve Sidonske i careve na ostrvima preko mora,
23 Dedan, Tema, Buz, and all who have the corners of their beard cut off;
Dedana i Temu i Vuza, i sve koji se s kraja strigu,
24 and all the kings of Arabia, all the kings of the mixed people who dwell in the wilderness;
I sve careve Arapske i sve careve od mješavine koji žive u pustinji,
25 and all the kings of Zimri, all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes;
I sve careve Zimrijske, i sve careve Elamske, i sve careve Midske,
26 and all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world, which are on the surface of the earth. The king of Sheshach will drink after them.
I sve careve sjeverne, koji su blizu i koji su daleko, kako jednoga tako drugoga, i sva carstva zemaljska što su po zemlji; a car Sisaški piæe poslije njih.
27 “You shall tell them, ‘The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel says: “Drink, and be drunk, vomit, fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.”’
I reci im: ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama Bog Izrailjev: pijte i opijte se, i bljujte i padajte, da ne ustanete od maèa koji æu pustiti meðu vas.
28 It shall be, if they refuse to take the cup at your hand to drink, then you shall tell them, ‘The LORD of Hosts says: “You shall surely drink.
Ako li ne bi htjeli uzeti èaše iz ruke tvoje da piju, tada im reci: ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: zaista æete piti.
29 For, behold, I begin to work evil at the city which is called by my name; and should you be utterly unpunished? You will not be unpunished; for I will call for a sword on all the inhabitants of the earth, says the LORD of Hosts.”’
Jer evo poèinjem puštati zlo na grad koji se naziva mojim imenom, a vi li æete ostati bez kara? neæete ostati bez kara, jer æu dozvati maè na sve stanovnike zemaljske, govori Gospod nad vojskama.
30 “Therefore prophesy against them all these words, and tell them, “‘The LORD will roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation. He will mightily roar against his fold. He will give a shout, as those who tread grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.
Ti dakle prorokuj im sve ove rijeèi i reci im: Gospod æe s visine riknuti, i iz stana svetinje svoje pustiæe glas svoj, silno æe riknuti iz stana svojega, kao oni što gaze grožðe podignuæe viku na sve stanovnike zemaljske.
31 A noise will come even to the end of the earth; for the LORD has a controversy with the nations. He will enter into judgment with all flesh. As for the wicked, he will give them to the sword,”’ says the LORD.”
Proæi æe graja do kraja zemlje, jer raspru ima Gospod s narodima, sudi se sa svakim tijelom, bezbožnike æe dati pod maè, govori Gospod.
32 The LORD of Hosts says, “Behold, evil will go out from nation to nation, and a great storm will be raised up from the uttermost parts of the earth.”
Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: evo, nevolja æe poæi od naroda do naroda, i velik æe se vihor podignuti od krajeva zemaljskih.
33 The slain of the LORD will be at that day from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth. They won’t be lamented. They won’t be gathered or buried. They will be dung on the surface of the ground.
I u onaj æe dan biti od kraja do kraja zemlje pobijeni od Gospoda, neæe biti oplakani, niti æe se pokupiti i pogrepsti, biæe gnoj po zemlji.
34 Wail, you shepherds, and cry. Wallow in dust, you leader of the flock; for the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions have fully come, and you will fall like fine pottery.
Ridajte, pastiri, i vièite i valjajte se po prahu, glavari stadu, jer se navršiše vaši dani da budete poklani, i da se razaspete, i pašæete kao skupocjen sud.
35 The shepherds will have no way to flee. The leader of the flock will have no escape.
I neæe biti utoèišta pastirima, ni izbavljenja glavarima od stada.
36 A voice of the cry of the shepherds, and the wailing of the leader of the flock, for the LORD destroys their pasture.
Vikaæe pastiri i ridaæe glavari od stada, jer æe potrti Gospod pašu njihovu.
37 The peaceful folds are brought to silence because of the fierce anger of the LORD.
I razvaliæe se mirni torovi od žestokoga gnjeva Gospodnjega.
38 He has left his covert, as the lion; for their land has become an astonishment because of the fierceness of the oppression, and because of his fierce anger.
Kao laviæ ostavio je šator svoj, jer æe zemlja njihova opustjeti od žestine nasilnikove i od ljutoga gnjeva njegova.
