Jeremiah 46
1 The word of the Lord, that was maad to Jeremye, the profete, ayens hethene men;
Riječ koju Jahve uputi proroku Jeremiji protiv naroda.
2 to Egipt, ayens the oost of Farao Nechao, kyng of Egipt, that was bisidis the flood Eufrates, in Charchamys, whom Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, smoot, in the fourthe yeer of Joachym, sone of Josie, kyng of Juda.
Još o Egiptu. Protiv vojske faraona Neka, kralja egipatskoga, što bijaše kod rijeke Eufrata, u Karkemišu, i kralj Nabukodonozor ga potuče, četvrte godine Jojakima, sina Jošijina, kralja judejskoga.
3 Make ye redi scheeld and targat, and go ye forth to batel.
Pripremite štitove i oklope! Naprijed, u boj!
4 Ioyne ye horsis, and stie, ye knyytis; stonde ye in helmes, polische ye speris, clothe ye you in haburiowns.
Upregnite konje! Na kola, vozači! Postavite se pod kacigama! Naperite koplja! Navucite oklope!
5 What therfor? Y siy hem dredeful, and turnynge the backis, the stronge men of hem slayn; and thei fledden swiftli, and bihelden not; drede was on ech side, seith the Lord.
Što vidim? Zaprepašteni, uzmiču? Junaci njihovi, poraženi, u bijeg udariše glavom bez obzira! Užas odasvud - riječ je Jahvina.
6 A swift man schal not fle, and a strong man gesse not hym silf to be saued; at the north, bisidis the flood Eufrates, thei weren ouer comun, and fellen doun.
Ni najbrži ne umače, ni najhrabriji ne uteče! Na sjeveru, na obali Eufrata, posrću i padaju.
7 Who is this, that stieth as a flood, and hise swelewis wexen greet as of floodis?
Tko se to diže poput Nila, čije vode šume, k'o brzaci nabujaše?
8 Egipte stiede at the licnesse of a flood, and hise wawis schulen be mouyd as floodis; and it schal seie, Y schal stie, and hile the erthe; Y schal leese the citee, and dwelleris therof.
To Egipat se diže poput Nila, k'o brzaci vode mu nabujaše. I govori: dići ću se, poplaviti zemlju, opustošiti gradove i pučanstvo!
9 Stie ye on horsis, and make ye ful out ioie in charis; and stronge men, come forth, Ethiopie and Libie, holdynge scheeld, and Lidii, takynge and schetynge arowis.
Konji, naprijed! Poletite, kola bojna! Navalite, ratnici! Kušiti, Putijci, štitom zaštićeni, i Ludijci, što lukom strijeljate!
10 Forsothe that dai of the Lord God of oostis is a dai of veniaunce, that he take veniaunce of hise enemyes; the swerd schal deuoure, and schal be fillid, and schal greetli be fillid with the blood of hem; for whi the slayn sacrifice of the Lord of oostis is in the lond of the north, bisidis the flood Eufrates.
Ovo je dan Jahve nad Vojskama - dan osvete da se dušmanima svojim osveti: mač će se nažderati, nasititi, glad utoliti krvlju njihovom! Jer Gospod, Jahve nad Vojskama, ima žrtveno klanje u sjevernoj zemlji uz obalu Eufrata.
11 Thou virgyn, the douyter of Egipt, stie in to Galaad, and take medicyn. In veyn thou schalt multiplie medecyns; helthe schal not be to thee.
Popni se na Gilead, balzama potraži, djevice, kćeri egipatska! Uzalud lijekovi mnogi: nema tebi ozdravljenja!
12 Hethene men herden thi schenschipe, and thi yellyng fillide the erthe; for a strong man hurtlide ayens a strong man, and bothe fellen doun togidere.
Narodi čuše za tvoju sramotu, vapaji tvoji napuniše zemlju. Jer se junak o junaka spotiče i obojica padaju.
13 The word which the Lord spak to Jeremye, the profete, on that that Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, was to comynge, and to smytynge the lond of Egipt.
Riječ koju Jahve uputi proroku Jeremiji kad Nabukodonozor, kralj babilonski, dođe da udari na zemlju egipatsku.
14 Telle ye to Egipt, and make ye herd in Magdalo, and sowne it in Memphis, and seie ye in Taphnys, Stonde thou, and make thee redi, for a swerd schal deuoure tho thingis that ben bi thi cumpas.
Navijestite Egiptu, objavite u Migdolu, obznanite u Memfisu: “Svrstaj se! Spremi se! Jer mač već ždere sve oko tebe!
15 Whi hath thi strong man wexe rotun? He stood not, for the Lord vndurturnede hym.
Što? Zar Apis pobježe? Tvoj se Bik ne odrva?” Da, Jahve ga obori!
16 He multipliede falleris, and a man felle doun to his neiybore; and thei schulen seie, Rise ye, and turne we ayen to oure puple, and to the lond of oure birthe, fro the face of swerd of the culuer.
On učini te mnogi posrnuše, popadaše jedan na drugoga. I gle, govore: “Na noge! Vratimo se svom narodu, rodnoj grudi svojoj, pred mačem koljačkim!”
17 Clepe ye the name of Farao, kyng of Egipt; the tyme hath brouyt noise.
Faraonu, kralju egipatskom, ime nadjenite: “Graja što pravi čas promaši.”
18 Y lyue, seith the kyng, the Lord of oostis is his name; for it schal come as Thabor in hillis, and as Carmele in the see.
“Tako, života mi moga” - govori Kralj, komu je ime Jahve nad Vojskama - “ono će doći kao Tabor posred gora, kao Karmel iznad mora.
19 Thou dwelleresse, the douyter of Egipt, make to thee vessels of passyng ouer; for whi Memfis schal be in to wildirnesse, and schal be forsakun vnhabitable.
Spremi izgnanički zavežljaj, udomljena kćeri egipatska, jer Memfis će biti u pustoš pretvoren, poharan i nenastanjen.
20 Egipt is a schapli cow calf, and fair; a prickere fro the north schal come to it.
Egipat bijaše lijepa junica, ali ide, ide na nju obad sa Sjevera.
21 Also the hirid men therof, that liueden as caluys maad fatte in the myddis therof, ben turned, and fledden togidere, and miyten not stonde; for the dai of sleynge of hem schal come on hem, the tyme of the visityng of hem.
A i plaćenici egipatski što k'o gojna telad usred nje življahu, i oni se okrenuše, u bijeg udariše, ne mogu se odhrvati jer ih stiže Dan propasti, dođe vrijeme da se kazne.
22 The vois of hem schal sowne as of bras, for thei schulen haste with oost, and with axis thei schulen come to it. As men kittynge doun trees thei kittiden doun the forest therof,
Slušaj! K'o da zmija sikće, sa svom silom dolaze, sjekirama na nju navaljuju, baš k'o drvosječe.
23 seith the Lord, which mai not be noumbrid; thei ben multiplied ouer locustis, and no noumbre is in hem.
Posjeći će šumu - riječ je Jahvina - iako je neprohodna. Više ih je nego skakavaca, broja njima nema.
24 The douytir of Egipt is schent, and bitakun in to the hond of the puple of the north,
Osramoćena je zemlja egipatska, predana je narodu Sjevera.”
25 seide the Lord of oostis, God of Israel. Lo! Y schal visite on the noise of Alisaundre, and on Farao, and on Egipt, and on the goddis therof, and on the kyngis therof, and on hem that tristen in hym.
Govori Jahve nad Vojskama, kralj Izraelov: “Evo, kaznit ću Amona Tebskoga, faraona i Egipat, i sve njegove bogove, kraljeve, faraona i sve koji se u nj uzdaju.
26 And Y schal yyue hem in to the hondis of men that seken the lijf of hem, and in to the hondis of Nabugodonosor, kyng of Babiloyne, and in to the hondis of hise seruauntis; and aftir these thingis it schal be enhabitid, as in the formere daies, seith the Lord.
Predat ću ih u ruke onima što im rade o glavi, u ruke Nabukodonozora, kralja babilonskoga, i u ruke slugu njegovih. A poslije će Egipat biti opet naseljen, kao u stara vremena” - riječ je Jahvina.
27 And thou, Jacob, my seruaunt, drede thou not, and Israel, drede thou not; for lo! Y schal make thee saaf fro fer place, and thi seed fro the lond of his caitiftee; and Jacob schal turne ayen, and schal reste, and schal haue prosperite, and noon schal be, that schal make hym aferd.
“Ne boj se, Jakove, slugo moja, ne plaši se, Izraele! Jer, evo, spasit ću te izdaleka i potomstvo tvoje iz zemlje izgnanstva. Jakov će se opet smiriti, spokojno će živjet' i nitko ga neće plašiti.
28 And Jacob, my seruaunt, nyle thou drede, seith the Lord, for Y am with thee; for Y schal waste alle folkis, to whiche Y castide thee out; but Y schal not waste thee, but Y schal chastise thee in doom, and Y schal not spare thee as innocent.
Ne boj se, Jakove, slugo moja - riječ je Jahvina - jer ja sam s tobom. Zatrt ću narode među koje te prognah, a tebe neću sasvim uništiti: ali ću te kaznit' po pravici, ne smijem te pustit' nekažnjena.”
