Jeremija 23
1 Teško pastirima koji potiru i razmeæu stado paše moje! govori Gospod.
Woe unto the shepherds that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith Jehovah.
2 Zato ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev za pastire koji pasu narod moj: vi razmetnuste ovce moje i razagnaste ih, i ne obilaziste ih; evo, ja æu vas obiæi za zloæu djela vaših, govori Gospod.
Therefore thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, against the shepherds that feed my people: Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them; behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, saith Jehovah.
3 I ostatak ovaca svojih ja æu skupiti iz svijeh zemalja, u koje ih razagnah, i vratiæu ih u torove njihove, gdje æe se naploditi i umnožiti.
And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries whither I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they shall be fruitful and multiply.
4 I postaviæu im pastire, koji æe ih pasti, da se ne boje više i ne plaše i da ne pogine nijedna, govori Gospod.
And I will set up shepherds over them, who shall feed them; and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall any be lacking, saith Jehovah.
5 Gle, idu dani, govori Gospod, u koje æu podignuti Davidu klicu pravednu, koja æe carovati i biti sreæna i èiniti sud i pravdu na zemlji.
Behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and he shall reign as king and deal wisely, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.
6 U njegove dane spašæe se Juda, i Izrailj æe stanovati u miru, i ovo mu je ime kojim æe se zvati: Gospod pravda naša.
In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely; and this is his name whereby he shall be called: Jehovah our righteousness.
7 Zato, evo, idu dani, govori Gospod, u koje se neæe više govoriti: tako da je živ Gospod, koji je izveo sinove Izrailjeve iz zemlje Misirske;
Therefore, behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, that they shall no more say, As Jehovah liveth, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
8 Nego: tako da je živ Gospod, koji je izveo i doveo sjeme doma Izrailjeva iz sjeverne zemlje i iz svijeh zemalja, u koje ih bijah razagnao. I oni æe sjedjeti u svojoj zemlji.
but, As Jehovah liveth, who brought up and who led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all the countries whither I had driven them. And they shall dwell in their own land.
9 Radi proroka puca srce u meni, trepeæu sve kosti moje, kao pijan sam i kao èovjek kojega je osvojilo vino, Gospoda radi i njegovijeh radi svetijeh rijeèi.
Concerning the prophets. My heart within me is broken, all my bones shake; I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine hath overcome, because of Jehovah, and because of his holy words.
10 Jer je zemlja puna preljuboèinaca, i s kletava tuži zemlja, posušiše se paše u pustinji; trk je njihov zao i moæ njihova neprava.
For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourneth; the pastures of the wilderness are dried up. And their course is evil, and their might is not right;
11 Jer i prorok i sveštenik skvrne je, nalazim i u domu svom zloæu njihovu, govori Gospod.
for both prophet and priest are profane; yea, in my house have I found their wickedness, saith Jehovah.
12 Zato æe put njihov biti kao klizavica po tami, gdje æe popuznuti i pasti; jer æu pustiti na njih zlo godine pohoðenja njihova, govori Gospod.
Wherefore their way shall be unto them as slippery places in the darkness: they shall be driven on, and fall therein; for I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their visitation, saith Jehovah.
13 U proroka Samarijskih vidio sam bezumlje, prorokovahu Valom, prelašæivahu narod moj Izrailja;
And I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria; they prophesied by Baal, and caused my people Israel to err.
14 Ali u proroka Jerusalimskih vidim strahotu: èine preljubu i hode u laži, ukrjepljuju ruke zlikovcima da se niko ne vrati od svoje zloæe; svi su mi kao Sodom, i stanovnici njegovi kao Gomor.
In the prophets of Jerusalem also I have seen a horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies; and they strengthen the hands of evil-doers, so that none doth return from his wickedness: they are all of them become unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.
15 Zato ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama o tijem prorocima: evo, ja æu ih nahraniti pelenom i napojiæu ih žuèi; jer od proroka Jerusalimskih izide oskvrnjenje po svoj zemlji.
Therefore thus saith Jehovah of hosts concerning the prophets: Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the water of gall; for from the prophets of Jerusalem is ungodliness gone forth into all the land.
16 Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: ne slušajte što govore proroci koji vam prorokuju; varaju vas, govore utvare svojega srca, ne iz usta Gospodnjih.
Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, Hearken not unto the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you: they teach you vanity; they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of Jehovah.
17 Jednako govore onima koji ne mare za me: Gospod je rekao: imaæete mir; i svakome koji ide po misli srca svojega govore: neæe doæi na vas zlo.
They say continually unto them that despise me, Jehovah hath said, Ye shall have peace; and unto every one that walketh in the stubbornness of his own heart they say, No evil shall come upon you.
18 Jer ko je stajao u vijeæu Gospodnjem, i vidio ili èuo rijeè njegovu? ko je pazio na rijeè njegovu i èuo?
For who hath stood in the council of Jehovah, that he should perceive and hear his word? who hath marked my word, and heard it?
19 Evo, vihor Gospodnji, gnjev, iziæi æe vihor, koji ne prestaje, pašæe na glavu bezbožnicima.
Behold, the tempest of Jehovah, [even his] wrath, is gone forth, yea, a whirling tempest: it shall burst upon the head of the wicked.
20 Neæe se odvratiti gnjev Gospodnji dokle ne uèini i izvrši što je u srcu naumio; najposlije æete razumjeti to sasvijem.
The anger of Jehovah shall not return, until he have executed, and till he have performed the intents of his heart: in the latter days ye shall understand it perfectly.
21 Ne slah tijeh proroka, a oni trèaše; ne govorih im, a oni prorokovaše.
I sent not these prophets, yet they ran: I spake not unto them, yet they prophesied.
22 Da su stajali u mom vijeæu, tada bi kazivali moje rijeèi narodu mojemu, i odvraæali bi ih s puta njihova zloga i od zloæe djela njihovijeh.
But if they had stood in my council, then had they caused my people to hear my words, and had turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.
23 Jesam li ja Bog izbliza, govori Gospod, a nijesam Bog i izdaleka?
Am I a God at hand, saith Jehovah, and not a God afar off?
24 Može li se ko sakriti na tajno mjesto da ga ja ne vidim? govori Gospod; ne ispunjam li ja nebo i zemlju? govori Gospod.
Can any hide himself in secret places so that I shall not see him? saith Jehovah. Do not I fill heaven and earth? saith Jehovah.
25 Èujem što govore ti proroci koji u ime moje prorokuju laž govoreæi: snio sam, snio sam.
I have heard what the prophets have said, that prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed.
26 Dokle æe to biti u srcu prorocima koji prorokuju laž, i prijevaru srca svojega prorokuju?
How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies, even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart?
27 Koji misle da æe uèiniti da narod moj zaboravi ime moje uza sne njihove, koje pripovijedaju jedan drugomu, kao što zaboraviše oci njihovi ime moje uz Vala.
that think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers forgat my name for Baal.
28 Prorok koji sni, neka pripovijeda san; a u koga je rijeè moja, neka govori rijeè moju istinito; šta æe pljeva sa pšenicom? govori Gospod.
The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell a dream; and he that hath my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the straw to the wheat? saith Jehovah.
29 Nije li rijeè moja kao oganj, govori Gospod, i kao malj koji razbija kamen?
Is not my word like fire? saith Jehovah; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?
30 Zato, evo me na te proroke, govori Gospod, koji kradu moje rijeèi jedan od drugoga.
Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, saith Jehovah, that steal my words every one from his neighbor.
31 Evo me na te proroke, veli Gospod, koji dižu jezik svoj i govore: on veli.
Behold, I am against the prophets, saith Jehovah, that use their tongues, and say, He saith.
32 Evo me na one koji prorokuju lažne sne, veli Gospod, i pripovijedajuæi ih zavode narod moj lažima svojim i hitrinom svojom; a ja ih nijesam poslao niti sam im zapovjedio; i neæe ništa pomoæi tome narodu, govori Gospod.
Behold, I am against them that prophesy lying dreams, saith Jehovah, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their vain boasting: yet I sent them not, nor commanded them; neither do they profit this people at all, saith Jehovah.
33 Ako te zapita ovaj narod ili koji prorok ili sveštenik govoreæi: kako je breme Gospodnje? tada im reci: kako breme? ostaviæu vas, govori Gospod.
And when this people, or the prophet, or a priest, shall ask thee, saying, What is the burden of Jehovah? then shalt thou say unto them, What burden! I will cast you off, saith Jehovah.
34 A proroka i sveštenika i narod koji reèe: breme Gospodnje, ja æu pokarati toga èovjeka i dom njegov.
And as for the prophet, and the priest, and the people, that shall say, The burden of Jehovah, I will even punish that man and his house.
35 Nego ovako govorite svaki bližnjemu svojemu i svaki bratu svojemu: šta odgovori Gospod? i: šta reèe Gospod?
Thus shall ye say every one to his neighbor, and every one to his brother, What hath Jehovah answered? and, What hath Jehovah spoken?
36 A bremena Gospodnjega ne pominjite više, jer æe svakome biti breme rijeè njegova, jer izvræete rijeèi Boga živoga, Gospoda nad vojskama, Boga našega.
And the burden of Jehovah shall ye mention no more: for every man’s own word shall be his burden; for ye have perverted the words of the living God, of Jehovah of hosts our God.
37 Ovako reci proroku: šta ti odgovori Gospod? i: šta ti reèe Gospod?
Thus shalt thou say to the prophet, What hath Jehovah answered thee? and, What hath Jehovah spoken?
38 Ali kad kažete: breme Gospodnje, zato ovako veli Gospod: šta govorite tu rijeè: breme Gospodnje, a ja slah k vama da vam kažu: ne govorite: breme Gospodnje,
But if ye say, The burden of Jehovah; therefore thus saith Jehovah: Because ye say this word, The burden of Jehovah, and I have sent unto you, saying, Ye shall not say, The burden of Jehovah;
39 Zato evo me, ja æu vas zaboraviti sasvijem i odbaciæu od sebe vas i grad koji sam dao vama i ocima vašim.
therefore, behold, I will utterly forget you, and I will cast you off, and the city that I gave unto you and to your fathers, away from my presence:
40 I navaliæu na vas porugu vjeènu i sramotu vjeènu koja se neæe zaboraviti.
and I will bring an everlasting reproach upon you, and a perpetual shame, which shall not be forgotten.
