Jeremija 22
1 Ovako govori Gospod: siði u dom cara Judina, i reci ondje ovu rijeè,
Thus said the LORD: "Go down to the house of the king of Judah, and speak there this word,
2 I kaži: slušaj rijeè Gospodnju, care Judin, koji sjediš na prijestolu Davidovu, ti i sluge tvoje i narod tvoj, koji ulazite na ova vrata.
Say, 'Hear the word of the LORD, king of Judah, who sits on the throne of David, you, and your servants, and your people who enter in by these gates.
3 Ovako veli Gospod: èinite sud i pravdu, i kome se otima izbavljajte ga iz ruku nasilnikovijeh, i ne èinite krivo inostrancu ni siroti ni udovici, i ne èinite im sile, i krvi prave ne proljevajte na ovom mjestu.
Thus says the LORD: "Execute justice and righteousness, and deliver him who is robbed out of the hand of the oppressor: and do no wrong, do no violence, to the foreigner, the fatherless, nor the widow; neither shed innocent blood in this place.
4 Jer ako doista uzradite ovo, ulaziæe na vrata ovoga doma carevi, koji sjede mjesto Davida na prijestolu njegovu, na kolima i na konjma, oni i sluge njihove i narod njihov.
For if you do this thing indeed, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting on the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, he, and his servants, and his people.
5 Ako li ne poslušate ovijeh rijeèi, zaklinjem se sobom, veli Gospod, da æe opustjeti taj dom.
But if you will not hear these words, I swear by myself, says the LORD, that this house shall become a desolation."
6 Jer ovako veli Gospod za dom cara Judina: ti si mi Galad i vrh Livanski, ali æu te obratiti u pustinju, u gradove u kojima se ne živi.
For thus says the LORD concerning the house of the king of Judah: "You are Gilead to me, the head of Lebanon. Yet surely I will make you a wilderness, cities which are not inhabited.
7 I spremiæu na tebe zatiraèe, svakoga s oružjem, i posjeæi æe tvoje krasne kedre i pobacati ih u oganj.
I will prepare destroyers against you, everyone with his weapons; and they shall cut down your choice cedars, and cast them into the fire.
8 I mnogi æe narodi prolaziti mimo taj grad, i govoriæe jedan drugome: zašto uèini ovo Gospod od toga grada velikoga?
Many nations shall pass by this city, and they shall say every man to his neighbor, 'Why has the LORD done thus to this great city?'
9 I reæi æe: jer ostaviše zavjet Gospoda Boga svojega i klanjaše se drugim bogovima i služiše im.
Then they shall answer, 'Because they forsook the covenant of the LORD their God, and worshiped other gods, and served them.'
10 Ne plaèite za mrtvijem niti ga žalite; nego plaèite za onijem koji odlazi, jer se neæe više vratiti niti æe vidjeti svoje postojbine.
Do not weep for the dead, neither bemoan him; but weep bitterly for him who goes away; for he shall return no more, nor see his native country."
11 Jer ovako govori Gospod o Salumu sinu Josije cara Judina, koji carovaše mjesto Josije oca svojega, koji otide iz ovoga mjesta: neæe se više vratiti.
For thus says the LORD touching Shallum the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who reigned instead of Josiah his father, and who went forth out of this place: "He shall not return there any more.
12 Nego æe umrijeti u mjestu kuda ga odvedoše u ropstvo, i neæe više vidjeti ove zemlje.
But in the place where they have led him captive, there shall he die, and he shall see this land no more."
13 Teško onomu koji gradi svoju kuæu ne po pravdi, i klijeti svoje ne po pravici, koji se služi bližnjim svojim ni za što i plate za trud njegov ne daje mu;
Woe to him who builds his house by unrighteousness, and his rooms by injustice; who uses his neighbor's service without wages, and doesn't give him his hire;
14 Koji govori: sagradiæu sebi veliku kuæu i prostrane klijeti; i razvaljuje sebi prozore, i oblaže kedrom i maže crvenilom.
who says, "I will build me a wide house and spacious rooms," and cuts him out windows; and it is ceiling with cedar, and painted with vermilion.
15 Hoæeš li carovati kad se miješaš s kedrom? Otac tvoj nije li jeo i pio? kad èinjaše sud i pravdu, tada mu bijaše dobro.
Shall you reign, because you strive to excel in cedar? Did not your father eat and drink, and do justice and righteousness? Then it was well with him.
16 Davaše pravicu siromahu i ubogome, i bijaše mu dobro; nije li to poznavati me? govori Gospod.
He judged the cause of the poor and needy; then it was well. Wasn't this to know me?' says the LORD.
17 Ali oèi tvoje i srce tvoje idu samo za tvojim dobitkom i da proljevaš krv pravu i da èiniš nasilje i krivdu.
"But your eyes and your heart are not but for your covetousness, and for shedding innocent blood, and for oppression, and for violence, to do it."
18 Zato ovako veli Gospod za Joakima sina Josije cara Judina: neæe naricati za njim: jaoh brate moj! ili: jaoh sestro! neæe naricati za njim: jaoh gospodaru! ili: jaoh slavo njegova!
Therefore thus says the LORD concerning Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah: "they shall not lament for him, saying, 'Alas my brother. or, Alas sister.' They shall not lament for him, saying, 'Alas lord.' or, 'Alas his majesty.'
19 Pogrebom magareæim pogrepšæe se, izvuæi æe se i baciæe se iza vrata Jerusalimskih.
He shall be buried with the burial of a donkey, drawn and cast forth beyond the gates of Jerusalem.
20 Izidi na Livan i vièi, i na Vasanu pusti glas svoj, i vièi preko brodova, jer se satrše svi koji te ljube.
Go up to Lebanon, and cry; and lift up your voice in Bashan, and cry from Abarim; for all your lovers are destroyed.
21 Govorih ti u sreæi tvojoj, a ti reèe: neæu da slušam; to je put tvoj od djetinjstva tvojega da ne slušaš glasa mojega.
I spoke to you in your prosperity; but you said, 'I will not hear.' This has been your way from your youth, that you did not obey my voice.
22 Sve æe pastire tvoje odnijeti vjetar, i koji te ljubi otiæi æe u ropstvo; tada æeš se posramiti i postidjeti za svu zloæu svoju.
The wind shall feed all your shepherds, and your lovers shall go into captivity: surely then you will be ashamed and confounded for all your wickedness.
23 Ti sjediš na Livanu, gnijezdo viješ na kedrima, kako æeš biti ljupka, kad ti doðu muke i bolovi kao porodilji!
Inhabitant of Lebanon, who makes your nest in the cedars, how greatly you will groan when pangs come on you, the pain as of a woman in travail.
24 Kako sam ja živ, veli Gospod, da bi Honija sin Joakima cara Judina bio prsten peèatni na desnoj ruci mojoj, i odande æu te otrgnuti.
As I live," says the LORD, "though Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were the signet on my right hand, yet would I pluck you there;
25 I daæu te u ruke onima koji traže dušu tvoju, i u ruke onima kojih se bojiš, u ruke Navuhodonosoru caru Vavilonskom i u ruke Haldejcima.
and I will give you into the hand of those who seek your life, and into the hand of them of whom you are afraid, even into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans.
26 I baciæu tebe i mater tvoju koja te je rodila u zemlju tuðu, gdje se nijeste rodili, i ondje æete pomrijeti.
I will cast you out, and your mother who bore you, into another country, where you were not born; and there you will die.
27 A u zemlju u koju æete željeti da se vratite, neæete se vratiti u nju.
But to the land whereunto their soul longs to return, there shall they not return."
28 Je li taj èovjek Honija ništav idol izlomljen? je li sud u kom nema miline? zašto biše istjerani, on i sjeme njegovo, i baèeni u zemlju, koje ne poznaju?
Is this man Coniah a despised broken vessel? Is he a vessel in which none delights? Why are they cast out, he and his descendants, and cast into a land that they do not know?
29 O zemljo, zemljo, zemljo! èuj rijeè Gospodnju.
O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the LORD.
30 Ovako veli Gospod: zapišite da æe taj èovjek biti bez djece i da neæe biti sreæan do svoga vijeka; i niko neæe biti sreæan od sjemena njegova, koji bi sjedio na prijestolu Davidovu i još vladao Judom.
Thus says the LORD, "Write this man down childless, a man who will not succeed in his days; for none of his descendants will succeed in sitting on the throne of David, and ruling in Judah.
