Jeremiah 40
1 The word that hath been unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, after Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, hath sent him from Ramah, in his taking him — and he a prisoner in chains — in the midst of all the removal of Jerusalem and of Judah, who are removed to Babylon.
Rijeè koja doðe Jeremiji od Gospoda kad ga Nevuzardan zapovjednik stražarski pusti iz Rame uzevši ga pošto bješe okovan u verige meðu svijem robljem Jerusalimskim i Judinijem, koje se voðaše u Vavilon.
2 And the chief of the executioners taketh Jeremiah, and saith unto him, 'Jehovah thy God hath spoken this evil concerning this place,
I uzevši zapovjednik stražarski Jeremiju reèe mu: Gospod Bog tvoj izreèe ovo zlo za ovo mjesto;
3 and Jehovah bringeth [it] in, and doth as He spake, because ye have sinned against Jehovah, and have not hearkened to His voice, even this thing hath been to you.
I nanese i uèini kako reèe, jer zgriješiste Gospodu i ne slušaste glasa njegova, zato vas snaðe ovo.
4 'And now, lo, I have loosed thee to-day from the chains that [are] on thy hand; if good in thine eyes to come with me [to] Babylon, come, and I keep mine eye upon thee: and if evil in thine eyes to come with me to Babylon, forbear; see, all the land [is] before thee, whither [it be] good, and whither [it be] right in thine eyes to go — go.' —
Ali sada, evo, ja te opraštam danas veriga što su ti na ruku; ako ti je volja poæi sa mnom u Vavilon, hodi, ja æu se brinuti za te; ako li ti nije volja poæi sa mnom u Vavilon, a ti nemoj; evo, sva ti je zemlja otvorena, idi kuda god hoæeš i kuda ti je drago.
5 and while he doth not reply — 'Or turn back unto Gedaliah son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon hath appointed over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him in the midst of the people, or whithersoever it is right in thine eyes to go — go.' And the chief of the executioners giveth to him for the way, and a gift, and sendeth him away,
Ili kad se on još ne vraæa, otidi k njemu, Godoliji sinu Ahikama sina Safanova, kojega je postavio car Vavilonski nad gradovima Judinijem, i ostani s njim meðu narodom, ili idi kuda ti je drago. I dade mu zapovjednik stražarski brašnjenice i dar, i otpusti ga.
6 and Jeremiah cometh in unto Gedaliah son of Ahikam, to Mizpah, and dwelleth with him, in the midst of the people who are left in the land.
I tako doðe Jeremija ka Godoliji sinu Ahikamovu u Mispu, i osta s njim u narodu, koji još osta u zemlji.
7 And all the heads of the forces that [are] in the field hear, they and their men, that the king of Babylon hath appointed Gedaliah son of Ahikam over the land, and that he hath charged him [with] men, and women, and infants, and of the poor of the land, of those who have not been removed to Babylon;
A sve vojvode što bjehu u polju i ljudi njihovi kad èuše da je car Vavilonski postavio Godoliju sina Ahikamova nad zemljom, i da je na njemu ostavio ljude i žene i djecu izmeðu siromašnoga naroda u zemlji, koji ne bi odveden u Vavilon,
8 and they come in unto Gedaliah to Mizpah, even Ishmael son of Nethaniah, and Johanan and Jonathan sons of Kareah, and Seraiah son of Tanhumeth, and the sons of Ephai the Netophathite, and Jezaniah son of the Maachathite, they and their men.
Doðoše u Mispu ka Godoliji Ismailo sin Netanijin i Joanan i Jonatan sinovi Karijini, i Seraja sin Tanumetov, i sinovi Jofije Netofaæanina, i Jezanija sin nekoga Mahaæanina, oni i ljudi njihovi.
9 And swear to them doth Gedaliah son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, and to their men, saying, 'Be not afraid of serving the Chaldeans, abide in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it is well for you;
I zakle se Godolija sin Ahikama sina Safanova njima i ljudima njihovijem govoreæi: ne bojte se službe Haldejcima; ostanite u zemlji, i služite caru Vavilonskom, i dobro æe vam biti.
10 and I, lo, I am dwelling in Mizpah, to stand before the Chaldeans who are come in unto us, and ye, gather ye wine, and summer fruit, and oil, and put in your vessels, and dwell in your cities that ye have taken.'
A ja evo æu stajati u Mispi da doèekujem Haldejce koji æe dolaziti k nama; a vi berite vinograde i voæe i ulje, i ostavljajte u sudove svoje, i stojte u gradovima svojim koje držite.
11 And also all the Jews who [are] in Moab, and among the sons of Ammon, and in Edom, and who [are] in all the lands, have heard that the king of Babylon hath given a remnant to Judah, and that he hath appointed over them Gedaliah son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan,
Tako i svi Judejci, koji bijahu meðu Moavcima i sinovima Amonovijem i Edomcima i po svijem zemljama, èuvši da je car Vavilonski ostavio ostatak u Judeji i postavio nad njima Godoliju sina Ahikama sina Safanova,
12 and all the Jews from all the places whither they have been driven, turn back and enter the land of Judah, unto Gedaliah, to Mizpah, and they gather wine and summer fruit — very much.
Vratiše se svi Judejci iz svijeh mjesta kuda bijahu razagnani, i doðoše u zemlju Judinu ka Godoliji u Mispu, i nabraše vina i voæa vrlo mnogo.
13 And Johanan son of Kareah, and all the heads of the forces that [are] in the field, have come in unto Gedaliah to Mizpah,
A Joanan sin Karijin i sve vojvode što bjehu u polju doðoše ka Godoliji u Mispu,
14 and they say unto him, 'Dost thou really know that Baalis king of the sons of Ammon hath sent Ishmael son of Nethaniah to smite thy soul?' And Gedaliah son of Ahikam hath not given to them credence.
I rekoše mu: znaš li da je Valis car sinova Amonovijeh poslao Ismaila sina Netanijina da te ubije? Ali im ne povjerova Godolija sin Ahikamov.
15 And Johanan son of Kareah hath spoken unto Gedaliah in secret, in Mizpah, saying, 'Let me go, I pray thee, and I smite Ishmael son of Nethaniah, and no one doth know; why doth he smite thy soul? and scattered have been all Judah who are gathered unto thee, and perished hath the remnant of Judah.'
Tada Joanan sin Karijin reèe Godoliji nasamo u Mispi govoreæi: idem da ubijem Ismaila sina Netanijina, niko neæe doznati. Zašto da te ubije i da se rasiju svi Judejci koji su se skupili oko tebe i da propadne ostatak Judin?
16 And Gedaliah son of Ahikam saith unto Johanan son of Kareah, 'Thou dost not do this thing, for falsehood thou art speaking concerning Ishmael.'
Ali Godolija sin Ahikamov reèe Joananu sinu Karijinu: nemoj to èiniti, jer nije istina što kažeš za Ismaila.
