< Jeremija 26 >
1 U poèetku carovanja Joakima sina Josijina cara Judina doðe ova rijeè od Gospoda govoreæi:
In the beginning of the reign of Joakim the son of Josias king of Juda, came this word from the Lord, saying:
2 Ovako govori Gospod: stani u trijemu doma Gospodnjega, i govori svijem gradovima Judinijem, koji dolaze da se poklone u domu Gospodnjem, sve rijeèi koje ti zapovijedam da im kažeš, ne izostavi ni rijeèi,
Thus saith the Lord: Stand in the court of the house of the Lord, and speak to all the cities of Juda, out of which they come, to adore in the house of the Lord, all the words which I have commanded thee to to speak unto them: leave not out one word.
3 Ne bi li poslušali i vratili se svaki sa svoga zloga puta, da mi se sažali sa zla koje im mislim uèiniti za zloæu djela njihovijeh.
If so be they will hearken and be converted every one from his evil way; that I may repent me of the evil that I think to do unto them for the wickedness of their doings.
4 Reci im dakle: ovako veli Gospod: ako me ne poslušate da hodite u mom zakonu koji sam stavio pred vas,
And thou shalt say to them: Thus saith the Lord: If you will not hearken to me to walk in my law, which I have given to you:
5 Da slušate rijeèi sluga mojih proroka, koje vam šaljem, koje slah zarana jednako, ali ih ne poslušaste,
To give ear to the words of my servants the prophets, whom I sent to you rising up early: and sending, and you have not hearkened:
6 Uèiniæu s domom ovijem kao sa Silomom, i grad ovaj daæu u prokletstvo svijem narodima na zemlji.
I will make this house like Silo: and I will make this city a curse to all the nations of the earth.
7 A sveštenici i proroci i sav narod èuše Jeremiju gdje govori te rijeèi u domu Gospodnjem.
And the priests, and the prophets, and all the people heard Jeremias speaking these words in the house of the Lord.
8 I kad Jeremija izgovori sve što mu Gospod zapovjedi da kaže svemu narodu, uhvatiše ga sveštenici i proroci i sav narod govoreæi: poginuæeš.
And when Jeremias made an end of speaking all that the Lord had commanded him to speak to all the people, the priests, and the prophets, and all the people laid hold on him, saying: Let him be put to death.
9 Zašto prorokova u ime Gospodnje govoreæi: ovaj æe dom biti kao Silom, i ovaj æe grad opustjeti da neæe u njemu niko živjeti? I skupi se sav narod na Jeremiju u dom Gospodnji.
Why hath he prophesied in the name of the Lord, saying: This house shall be like Silo; and this city shall be made desolate, without an inhabitant? And all the people were gathered together against Jeremias in the house of the Lord.
10 A knezovi Judini èuvši to doðoše iz doma carskoga u dom Gospodnji, i sjedoše pred nova vrata Gospodnja.
And the princes of Juda heard these words: and they went up from the king’s house into the house of the Lord, and sat in the entry of the new gate of the house of the Lord.
11 I rekoše sveštenici i proroci knezovima i svemu narodu govoreæi: ovaj je èovjek zaslužio smrt, jer prorokova protiv ovoga grada, kao što èuste svojim ušima.
And the priests and the prophets spoke to the princes, and to all the people, saying: The judgement of death is for this man: because he hath prophesied against this city, as you have heard with your ears.
12 Tada progovori Jeremija svijem knezovima i svemu narodu govoreæi: Gospod me posla da prorokujem protiv ovoga doma i protiv ovoga grada sve što èuste.
Then Jeremias spoke to all the princes, and to all the people, saying: The Lord sent me to prophesy concerning this house, and concerning this city all the words you have heard.
13 Zato popravite putove svoje i djela svoja, i poslušajte rijeè Gospoda Boga svojega, i sažaliæe se Gospodu sa zla koje je izrekao za vas.
Now therefore amend your ways, and your doings, and hearken to the voice of the Lord your God: and the Lord will repent of the evil that he hath spoken against you.
14 A ja, evo sam u vašim rukama, èinite od mene što mislite da je dobro i pravo.
But as for me, behold I am in your hands: do with me what is good and right in your eyes:
15 Ali znajte zacijelo, ako me ubijete, krv pravu svaliæete na se i na ovaj grad i na stanovnike njegove, jer doista Gospod me posla k vama da govorim sve ove rijeèi da èujete.
But know ye, and understand, that if you put me to death, you will shed innocent blood against your own selves, and against this city, and the inhabitants thereof. For in truth the Lord sent me to you, to speak all these words in your hearing.
16 Tada rekoše knezovi i sav narod sveštenicima i prorocima: nije ovaj èovjek zaslužio smrti, jer nam je govorio u ime Gospoda Boga našega.
Then the princes, and all the people said to the priests, and to the prophets: There is no judgement of death for this man: for he hath spoken to us in the name of the Lord our God.
17 I ustaše neki od starješina zemaljskih, i progovoriše svemu zboru narodnom i rekoše:
And some of the ancients of the land rose up: and they spoke to all the assembly of the people, saying:
18 Mihej Morašæanin prorokova u vrijeme Jezekije cara Judina i govori svemu narodu Judinu i reèe: ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: Sion æe se preorati kao njiva i grad æe Jerusalim biti gomila kamenja, i gora ovoga doma visoka šuma.
Micheas of Morasthi was a prophet in the days of Ezechias king of Juda, and he spoke to all the people of Juda, saying: Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Sion shall be ploughed like a field, and Jerusalem shall be a heap of stones: and the mountain of the house the high places of woods.
19 Je li ga zato ubio Jezekija car Judin i sav Juda? nije li se pobojao Gospoda i molio se Gospodu? i Gospodu se sažali radi zla koje bješe izrekao na njih; mi dakle èinimo veliko zlo dušama svojim.
Did Ezechias king of Juda, and all Juda, condemn him to death? did they not fear the Lord, and beseech the face of the Lord: and the Lord repented of the evil that they had spoken against them? therefore we are doing a great evil against our souls.
20 I još bješe jedan koji prorokova u ime Gospodnje, Urija sin Semajin iz Kirijat-Jarima; on prorokova protiv ovoga grada i protiv ove zemlje isto onako kao Jeremija.
There was also a man that prophesied in the name of the Lord, Urias the son of Semei of Cariathiarim: and he prophesied against this city, and against this land, according to all the words of Jeremias.
21 I kad èu car Joakim i sve vojvode njegove i svi knezovi rijeèi njegove, traži ga car da ga ubije; a Urija èuvši poboja se i pobježe i doðe u Misir.
And Joakim, and all his men in power, and his princes heard these words: and the king sought to put him to death. And Urias heard it, and was afraid, and fled and went into Egypt.
22 A car Joakim posla neke u Misir, Elnatana sina Ahovorova i druge s njim.
And king Joakim sent men into Egypt, Elnathan the son of Achobor, and men with him into Egypt.
23 I oni izvedoše Uriju iz Misira i dovedoše k caru Joakimu, i ubi ga maèem, i baci tijelo njegovo u groblje prostoga naroda.
And they brought Urias out of Egypt: and brought him to king Joakim, and he slew him with the sword: and he cast his dead body into the graves of the common people.
24 Ali ruka Ahikama sina Safanova bi uz Jeremiju, te ga ne predaše u ruke narodu da ga pogube.
So the hand of Ahicam the son of Saphan was with Jeremias, that he should not be delivered into the hands of the people, to put him to death.
