Jeremija 19
1 Ovako reèe Gospod: idi i kupi krèag zemljan u lonèara s nekoliko starješina narodnijeh i starješina sveštenièkih.
Thus said Yahweh, Go and buy a potter’s earthen bottle, —and take of the elders of the people, and of the elders of the priests;
2 I otidi u dolinu sina Enomova što je pred vratima istoènijem, i ondje proglasi rijeèi koje æu ti kazati.
Then shalt thou go forth into the valley of Ben-hinnom, which is at the opening of the gate of potsherds; and proclaim there the words which I shall speak unto 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 shalt say, —Hear ye the word of Yahweh, O kings of Judah And inhabitants of Jerusalem, —Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts—God of Israel Behold me! bringing in calamity upon this place, which shall cause the ears of every one that heareth it, to 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 treated this as a foreign place, And have burned incense therein to other gods, which neither they, nor their fathers nor the kings of Judah, have known; And 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 have built the high places of Baal for burning up their sons in the fire as ascending-sacrifices to Baal, —Which I commanded not, Nor spake, Neither came it up on my heart,
6 Zato, evo, ide vrijeme, veli Gospod, kad se ovo mjesto neæe više zvati Tofet, ni dolina sina Enomova, nego krvna dolina.
Therefore, lo! days coming, Declareth Yahweh, When this place shall be called no longer The Topheth, or The Valley of Ben-hinnom, —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 pour out the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place, And I will cause them to fall by the sword, before their enemies, and by the hand of them who seek their life, —
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 give their dead bodies for food, to the bird of the heavens and to the beast of the earth; And I will make this city a desolation and a hissing, —every one that passeth by it, shall be astonished and hiss over all her wounds;
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 suffer them to eat the flesh of their sons, and the flesh of their daughters, yea every one—the flesh of his friend, will they eat, —in the siege and in the straitness, wherewith, their enemies, and they who seek their lives, will straiten them.
10 Potom razbij krèag pred ljudima koji æe iæi s tobom.
Then shalt thou break the bottle, before the eyes of the men who are walking 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 shalt say unto them—Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts—Thus and thus, will I break this people, and this city, As one breaketh the vessel of a potter, which cannot be made whole any more, —And in Topheth, shall they bury, for want of place to bury.
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 Declareth Yahweh, And to the inhabitants thereof, —Even making this city like 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.
Yea, the houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah, shall like the place of Topheth, be places defiled, —even all the houses upon whose roofs they burned incense to all the host of the heavens, and poured out drink-offerings to other 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 entered Jeremiah out of Topheth, whither Yahweh had sent him to prophesy, —and stood in the court of the house of Yahweh, and said unto all the 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 Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, Behold me! brining in against this city, and upon all the cities thereof, The whole calamity which I have pronounced against her, —Because they stiffened their neck, that they might not hear my words.
