Jeremija 22
1 Ovako govori Gospod: siði u dom cara Judina, i reci ondje ovu rijeè,
Thus, said Yahweh, Go thou down to the house of king of Judah, and speak thou 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.
and say—Hear thou the word of Yahweh O king of Judah who sittest upon the throne of David, —thou, and thy servants and thy people who enter in at 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, saith Yahweh, —Execute ye justice, and righteousness, And deliver the robbed out of the hand of the oppressor, —But the sojourner the fatherless, and the widow, do not oppress neither commit violence, And the blood of the innocent, do not ye shed, 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 ye, indeed do, this thing, then shall there enter into the gates of this house—kings, sitting for David upon his throne 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 ye will not hear these words, By myself have I sworn Declareth Yahweh—That, a ruin, shall this house become.
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, saith Yahweh Concerning the house of the king of Judah, —Though thou wast Gilead, to me, The summit of Lebanon, Yet surely I will make thee, A wilderness, Cities, not habitable;
7 I spremiæu na tebe zatiraèe, svakoga s oružjem, i posjeæi æe tvoje krasne kedre i pobacati ih u oganj.
And I will hallow against thee Destroyers Every man with his weapons, —And they shall cut down of the choicest of thy cedars, and cast upon the fire.
8 I mnogi æe narodi prolaziti mimo taj grad, i govoriæe jedan drugome: zašto uèini ovo Gospod od toga grada velikoga?
Then shall many nations pass by this city, —and shall say, every man to his neighbour, For what cause, hath Yahweh done thus, unto this great city?
9 I reæi æe: jer ostaviše zavjet Gospoda Boga svojega i klanjaše se drugim bogovima i služiše im.
And they shall say, Because they forsook the covenant of Yahweh, their God, —And bowed down to 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 ye lament for him that is dead Neither bemoan ye, him, But weep ye—weep on—for him that is going away, For he shall not return any more Nor see the land of his birth.
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, saith Yahweh—Touching Shallum, son of Josiah king of Judah, That reigneth instead of Josiah his father, Who hath gone forth out of this place, He shall not return thither any more;
12 Nego æe umrijeti u mjestu kuda ga odvedoše u ropstvo, i neæe više vidjeti ove zemlje.
For in the place whither they have taken him captive, There, shall he die, —And this land, shall he see 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;
Alas! for him who buildeth his house without righteousness, And his roof-chambers without justice, —Of his neighbour, taketh service for nought, And recompense for his work, giveth him not.
14 Koji govori: sagradiæu sebi veliku kuæu i prostrane klijeti; i razvaljuje sebi prozore, i oblaže kedrom i maže crvenilom.
Who saith—I will build me a roomy house, with spacious roof-chambers, —So he cutteth him open its windows, And it is covered in with cedar, And he painteth it 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.
Shalt thou reign, because, thou, art eager to excel in cedar? Thy father, did he not eat and drink, and do justice and righteousness, And, then, it was well with him?
16 Davaše pravicu siromahu i ubogome, i bijaše mu dobro; nije li to poznavati me? govori Gospod.
[Did he not] plead the cause of the oppressed and the needy, And, then, it was well? Was not, that, to know, me? Demandeth Yahweh.
17 Ali oèi tvoje i srce tvoje idu samo za tvojim dobitkom i da proljevaš krv pravu i da èiniš nasilje i krivdu.
Verily thou hast neither eyes nor heart, save for thy plundering and for thy shedding of innocent blood, and for oppression and for crushing to do them!
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, saith Yahweh, Touching Jehoiakim son of Josiah King of Judah, They shall not cry in lament for him Alas my brother! or Alas sister! They shall not cry in lament for him Alas lord! or Alas! his renown!
19 Pogrebom magareæim pogrepšæe se, izvuæi æe se i baciæe se iza vrata Jerusalimskih.
With the burial of an ass, shall he be buried, Dragged along 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.
Ascend the Lebanon and make outcry, And in Bashan, put forth thy voice, —And make outcry from Abarim, For all thy lovers are torn in pieces.
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 spake unto thee, in thy carelessness, —Thou saidst I will not hearken! This hath been thy way from thy youth, That thou hast not hearkened to 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.
All thy shepherds, the wind shall feed, And, thy lovers into captivity, shall depart, —Surely, then shalt thou turn pale and be confounded, by reason of all thy wickedness.
23 Ti sjediš na Livanu, gnijezdo viješ na kedrima, kako æeš biti ljupka, kad ti doðu muke i bolovi kao porodilji!
O inhabitress of Lebanon that makest thy nest in the cedars, —How hast thou bemoaned thyself Now that pangs have overtaken thee, Anguish, as of her that giveth birth.
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, Declareth Yahweh, —Even though Coniah son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were the signet-ring upon my right hand, yet, from thence, would I pull thee off;
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 would give thee into the hand of them who seek thy life and into the hand of them from the face of whom, thou dost shrink in fear, —even into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar 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.
and I will hurl thee out and thy mother who bare thee, upon another land where ye were not born, —and, there, shall ye die.
27 A u zemlju u koju æete željeti da se vratite, neæete se vratiti u nju.
But unto the land whither they shall be lifting up their souls to return, thither, 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?
An earthen vessel to be despised thrown about, is this man Coniah? Or an instrument, in which is no pleasure? Wherefore are they to be cast out, he and his seed, and to be thrown forth upon a land which they have not known?
29 O zemljo, zemljo, zemljo! èuj rijeè Gospodnju.
O land, land, land! Hear thou the word of Yahweh!
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, saith Yahweh, —Register ye this man, childless, A man who shall not prosper in his days, —For there shall prosper of his seed No man sitting upon the throne of David, Or ruling any more over Judah.
