Jeremija 17
1 Grijeh je Judin zapisan gvozdenom pisaljkom i vrhom od dijamanta, urezan je na ploèi srca njihova i na rogovima oltara vaših,
Cursed is the man who trusts in man, and will lean his arm of flesh upon him, while his heart departs from the Lord.
2 Da se sinovi njihovi sjeæaju oltara njihovijeh i lugova njihovijeh pod zelenijem drvetima, na visokim humovima.
3 Goro s poljem, daæu imanje tvoje, sve blago tvoje daæu da se razgrabi, visine tvoje, za grijeh po svijem meðama tvojim.
4 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 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 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.
And he shall be as the wild tamarisk in the desert: he shall not see when good comes; but he shall dwell in barren [places], and in the wilderness, in a salt land which is not inhabited.
7 Blago èovjeku koji se uzda u Gospoda i kome je Gospod uzdanica.
But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord shall be.
8 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.
And he shall be as a thriving tree by the waters, and he shall cast forth his root towards a moist place: he shall not fear when heat comes, and there shall be upon him shady branches: he shall not fear in a year of drought, and he shall not fail to bear fruit.
9 Srce je prijevarno više svega i opako; ko æe ga poznati?
The heart is deep beyond all things, and it is the man, and who can know him?
10 Ja Gospod ispitujem srca i iskušavam bubrege, da bih dao svakome prema putovima njegovijem i po plodu djela njegovijeh.
I the Lord try the hearts, and prove the reins, to give to every one according to his ways, and according to the fruits of his devices.
11 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.
The partridge utters her voice, she gathers [eggs] which she did not lay; [so is a man] gaining his wealth unjustly; in the midst of his days [his riches] shall leave him, and at his latter end he will be a fool.
12 Mjesto je svetinje naše prijesto slave, visoko mjesto od poèetka.
An exalted throne of glory is our sanctuary.
13 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.
O Lord, the hope of Israel, let all that have left you be ashamed, let them that have revolted be written on the earth, because they have forsaken the fountain of life, the Lord.
14 Iscijeli me, Gospode, i biæu iscijeljen; izbavi me, i biæu izbavljen, jer si ti hvala moja.
Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved; for you are my boast.
15 Gle, oni mi govore: gdje je rijeè Gospodnja? Neka doðe.
Behold, they say to me, Where is the word of the Lord? let it come.
16 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.
But I have not been weary of following you, nor have I desired the day of man; you know; the [words] that proceed out of my lips are before your face.
17 Ne budi mi strah, ti si utoèište moje u zlu.
Be not to me a stranger, [but] spare me in the evil day.
18 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.
Let them that persecute me be ashamed, but let me not be ashamed: let them be alarmed, but let me not be alarmed: bring upon them the evil day, crush them with double destruction.
19 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.
Thus says the Lord; Go and stand in the gates of the children of your people, by which the kings of Juda enter, and by which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem:
20 I reci im: èujte rijeè Gospodnju, carevi Judini i svi Judejci i svi Jerusalimljani, koji ulazite na ova vrata.
and you shall say to them, Hear the word of the Lord, you kings of Juda, and all Judea, and all Jerusalem, [all] who go in at these gates:
21 Ovako veli Gospod: èuvajte se da ne nosite bremena u subotu i ne unosite na vrata Jerusalimska.
thus says the Lord; Take heed to your souls, and take up no burdens on the sabbath-day, and go not forth [through] the gates of Jerusalem;
22 I ne iznosite bremena iz kuæa svojih u subotu, i nikakoga posla ne radite, nego svetite subotu, kao što sam zapovjedio ocima vašim.
and carry forth no burdens out of your houses on the sabbath-day, and you shall do no work: sanctify the sabbath-day, as I commanded your fathers.
23 Ali ne poslušaše niti prignuše uha svojega, nego otvrdnuše vratom svojim da ne poslušaju i ne prime nauke.
But they listened not, and inclined not their ear, but stiffened their neck more than their fathers [did], so as not to hear me, and not to receive correction.
24 Ako me poslušate, govori Gospod, da ne nosite bremena na vrata ovoga grada u subotu, nego svetite subotu ne radeæi u nju nikakoga posla,
And it shall come to pass, if you will listen to me, says the Lord, to carry in no burdens through the gates of this city on the sabbath-day, and to sanctify the sabbath-day, so as to do no work [upon it],
25 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.
that there shall enter through the gates of this city kings and princes sitting on the throne of David, and riding on their chariots and horses, they, and their princes, the men of Juda, and the dwellers in Jerusalem: and this city shall be inhabited for ever.
26 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.
And [men] shall come out of the cities of Juda, and from round about Jerusalem, and out of the land of Benjamin, and out of the plain country, and from the hill country, and from the south [country], bringing whole burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and incense, and manna, and frankincense, bringing praise to the house of the Lord.
27 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.
But it shall come to pass, if you will not listen to me to sanctify the sabbath-day, to bear no burdens, nor go in [with them by] the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath-day; then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the streets of Jerusalem, and shall not be quenched.
