Jeremija 19
1 Ovako reèe Gospod: idi i kupi krèag zemljan u lonèara s nekoliko starješina narodnijeh i starješina sveštenièkih.
Thus saith the Lord: Go, and take a potter’s earthen bottle, and take of the ancients of the people, and of the ancients of the priests:
2 I otidi u dolinu sina Enomova što je pred vratima istoènijem, i ondje proglasi rijeèi koje æu ti kazati.
And go forth into the valley of the son of Ennom, which is by the entry of the earthen gate: and there thou shalt proclaim the words that I shall tell thee.
3 I reci: èujte rijeè Gospodnju, carevi Judini i stanovnici Jerusalimski; ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama Bog Izrailjev: evo, ja æu pustiti zlo na to mjesto da æe zujati uši svakome ko ga èuje.
And thou shalt say: Hear the word of the Lord, O ye kings of Juda, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem: Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold I will bring an affliction upon this place: so that whoever shall hear it, his ears shall tingle:
4 Jer me ostaviše i oskvrniše ovo mjesto kadeæi na njemu drugim bogovima, kojih ne znaše ni oni ni oci njihovi, ni carevi Judini, i napuniše to mjesto krvi prave.
Because they have forsaken me, and have profaned this place: and have sacrificed therein to strange gods, whom neither they nor their fathers knew, nor the kings of Juda: and they have filled this place with the blood of innocents.
5 I pogradiše visine Valu da sažižu sinove svoje ognjem na žrtve paljenice Valu, èega ne zapovjedih niti o tom govorih, niti mi na um doðe.
And they have built the high places of Baalim, to burn their children with fire for a holocaust to Baalim: which I did not command, nor speak of, neither did it once come into my mind.
6 Zato, evo, ide vrijeme, veli Gospod, kad se ovo mjesto neæe više zvati Tofet, ni dolina sina Enomova, nego krvna dolina.
Therefore behold the days come, saith the Lord, that this place shall no more be called Topheth, nor the valley of the son of Ennom, but the valley of slaughter.
7 Jer æu uništiti savjet Judin i Jerusalimski na ovom mjestu, i uèiniæu da padnu od maèa pred neprijateljima svojim i od ruke onijeh koji traže dušu njihovu, i mrtva æu tjelesa njihova dati za hranu pticama nebeskim i zvijerima zemaljskim.
And I will defeat the counsel of Juda and of Jerusalem in this place: and I will destroy them with the sword in the sight of their enemies, and by the hands of them that seek their lives: and I will give their carcasses to be meat for the fowls of the air, and for the beasts of the earth.
8 I obratiæu taj grad u pustoš i rug: ko god proðe mimo nj, èudiæe se i zviždaæe za sve muke njegove.
And I will make this city an astonishent, and a hissing: every one that shall pass by it, shall be astonished, and shall hiss because of all the plagues thereof.
9 I uèiniæu da jedu meso od svojih sinova i meso od svojih kæeri, i svaki æe jesti meso od druga svojega u nevolji i tjeskobi kojom æe im dosaðivati neprijatelji njihovi i koji traže dušu njihovu.
And I will feed them with the flesh of their sons, and with the flesh of their daughters: and they shall eat every one the flesh of his friend in the siege, and in the distress wherewith their enemies, and they that seek their lives shall straiten them.
10 Potom razbij krèag pred ljudima koji æe iæi s tobom.
And thou shalt break the bottle in the sight of the men that shall go with thee.
11 I reci im: ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: tako æu razbiti taj narod i taj grad kao što se razbije sud lonèarski, koji se ne može više opraviti, i u Tofetu æe se pogrebavati, jer neæe biti mjesta za pogrebavanje.
And thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord of hosts: even so will I break this people, and this city, as the potter’s vessel is broken, which cannot be made whole again: and they shall be buried in Topheth, because there is no other place to bury in.
12 Tako æu uèiniti tome mjestu, veli Gospod, i stanovnicima njegovijem i uèiniæu taj grad da bude kao Tofet;
Thus will I do to this place, saith the Lord, and to the inhabitants thereof: and I will make this city as Topheth.
13 I kuæe Jerusalimske i kuæe careva Judinijeh biæe neèiste kao mjesto Tofet, sve kuæe, gdje na krovovima kadiše svoj vojsci nebeskoj i ljevaše naljeve drugim bogovima.
And the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of Juda shall be unclean as the place of Topheth: all the houses upon whose roots they have sacrificed to all the host of heaven, and have poured out drink offerings to strange gods.
14 Potom se vrati Jeremija iz Tofeta kuda ga bješe poslao Gospod da prorokuje, i stade u trijemu doma Gospodnjega, i reèe svemu narodu:
Then Jeremias came from Topheth, whither the Lord had sent him to prophecy, and he stood in the court of the house of the Lord, and said to all people:
15 Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama Bog Izrailjev: evo, ja æu pustiti na taj grad i na sve gradove njegove sve zlo koje izrekoh za nj, jer otvrdnuše vratom svojim da ne slušaju rijeèi mojih.
Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold I will bring in upon this city, and upon all the cities thereof all the evils that I have spoken against it: because they have hardened their necks, and they might not hear my words.
