Jeremija 26

1 U poèetku carovanja Joakima sina Josijina cara Judina doðe ova rijeè od Gospoda govoreæi:

In the beginning of the reign of Jehoyakim the son of Josiah the king of Judah 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 hath said the Lord, Place thyself in the court of the house of the Lord, and speak against all of the cities of Judah, who come to prostrate themselves in the house of the Lord, all the words that I have commanded thee to speak unto them: omit not a word [thereof];

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.

Perhaps it be that they will hearken, and return every man from his evil way, that I may bethink me of the evil, which I purpose to do unto them, because of the wrongfulness 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 unto them, Thus hath said the Lord, if ye will not hearken unto me, to walk in my law, which I have set before you,

5 Da slušate rijeèi sluga mojih proroka, koje vam šaljem, koje slah zarana jednako, ali ih ne poslušaste,

To hearken unto the words of my servants the prophets, whom I send unto you, yea, making them rise up early, and sending them, while ye have not hearkened:

6 Uèiniæu s domom ovijem kao sa Silomom, i grad ovaj daæu u prokletstvo svijem narodima na zemlji.

Then will I render this house like Shiloh, and this city will I render a curse unto 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 Jeremiah 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 it came to pass, when Jeremiah had finished speaking all that the Lord had commanded [him] to speak unto all the people, that the priests and the prophets and all the people seized on him, saying, Thou shalt surely die.

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 hast thou prophesied in the name of the Lord, saying, Like Shiloh shall this house be, and this city shall be ruined, [left] without an inhabitant? And all the people assembled themselves against Jeremiah 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.

But when the princes of Judah heard these things, they came up from the king's house unto the house of the Lord, and sat down at the entrance of the new gate of the Lord's house.

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.

Then said the priests and the prophets unto the princes and unto all the people, as followeth, This man deserveth the punishment of death; for he hath prophesied against this city, as ye have heard with your own 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 said Jeremiah unto all the princes and unto all the people, as followeth, The Lord hath sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city all the words that ye 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.

But now amend your ways and your doings, and hearken to the voice of the Lord your God: and the Lord will bethink him 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.

As for me, behold, I am in your hand: do with me as seemeth good and just 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 for certain, that if ye put me to death, ye will surely place [the guilt of] innocent blood upon yourselves, and upon this city, and upon its inhabitants; for in truth hath the Lord sent me unto you to speak in your ears all these words.

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 said the princes and all the people unto the priests and to the prophets, This man is not deserving the punishment of death; for in the name of the Lord our God hath he spoken unto us.

17 I ustaše neki od starješina zemaljskih, i progovoriše svemu zboru narodnom i rekoše:

And then rose up certain men of the elders of the land, and said to all the assembly of the people, as followeth,

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.

Michah the Morashthite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah the king of Judah. and said to all the people of Judah, as followeth, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, Zion shall be ploughed up like a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps of ruins, and the mountain of the house, woody high-places.

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 Hezekiah the king of Judah and all Judah attempt to put him to death? behold, he did fear the Lord, and besought the Lord, and the Lord bethought him of the evil which he had spoken against them. And shall we bring a great wickedness on 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.

And there was also a man that prophesied in the name of the Lord, Uriyah the son of Shema'yahu of Kiryath-ye'arim, who prophesied against this city and against this land in accordance with all the words of Jeremiah;

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 when king Jehoyakim, with all his mighty men, and all the princes, heard his words, the king sought to put him to death; but when Uriyahu heard it, he was afraid, and fled, and arrived in Egypt;

22 A car Joakim posla neke u Misir, Elnatana sina Ahovorova i druge s njim.

But king Jehoyakim sent some men into Egypt, namely, Elnathan the son of 'Achbor, and some 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 fetched Uriyahu out of Egypt, and brought him unto king Jehoyakim, who slew him with the sword, and cast his dead body upon 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.

But the hand of Achikam the son of Shaphan was with Jeremiah, so as not to give him up into the hand of the people to put him to death.
