Jeremija 30
1 Rijeè koja doðe Jeremiji od Gospoda govoreæi:
Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
2 Ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev govoreæi: napiši u knjigu sve rijeèi koje ti govorih.
“[I], Yahweh, the God whom the Israeli people [say they belong to], am telling you that you should write down everything that I have said to you.
3 Jer evo idu dani, govori Gospod, kad æu povratiti roblje naroda svojega Izrailja i Jude, govori Gospod, i dovešæu ih natrag u zemlju koju sam dao ocima njihovijem, i držaæe je.
[I want you to know that] some day I will free my people, [the people of] Israel and Judah, from being slaves [in Babylon]. I will bring them back to this land that I gave to their ancestors, and this land will belong to them again. [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.”
4 I ovo su rijeèi koje reèe Gospod za Izrailja i Judu.
Yahweh gave [to me] another message concerning [the people of] Israel and Judah.
5 Jer ovako veli Gospod: èusmo viku od prepadanja, straha, a mira nema.
This is what he said: “I hear people screaming because they are terrified [DOU]; there is no peace [in the land].
6 Pitajte, i vidite, eda li muško raða? zašto dakle vidim gdje se svaki èovjek drži rukama svojima za bedra svoja kao porodilja i u svijeh se promijenila lica i poblijedjela?
But think about this: Men certainly do not [RHQ] give birth to babies. Therefore, why do strong men stand there, with their faces very white/pale, with their hands pressed against their stomachs, like women who are about to give birth to babies?
7 Jaoh! jer je velik ovaj dan, nije bilo takoga, i vrijeme je muke Jakovljeve, ipak æe se izbaviti iz nje.
[Terrible things will soon happen]; that will be a terrible day! There has never been such a time. It will be a time when [my] Israeli people will experience great trouble, but [finally] they will be saved [from their sufferings].”
8 Jer u taj dan, govori Gospod nad vojskama, slomiæu jaram njegov s vrata tvojega, i sveze tvoje pokidaæu; i neæe ga više tuðini nagoniti da im služi.
The Commander of the armies of angels says this: “At that time [it will be as though] I will sever/cut the ropes [that are around my people], and I will free them from being (slaves/forced to do what the King of Babylon wants them to do) [MET]. People in other countries will no longer be their bosses.
9 Nego æe služiti Gospodu Bogu svojemu i Davidu caru svojemu, kojega æu im podignuti.
My people will [again] serve me, Yahweh, their God, and [they will serve a king who is a descendant of] King David; [they will serve the king] whom I will appoint for them.
10 Ti se dakle ne boj, Jakove slugo moj, govori Gospod, i ne plaši se, Izrailju; jer, evo, ja æu te izbaviti iz daljne zemlje, i sjeme tvoje iz zemlje ropstva tvojega, i Jakov æe se vratiti i poèivati, i biæe miran, i niko ga neæe plašiti.
So, [you people of] Israel who serve me, do not be dismayed/worried [now], because [some day] I will bring you back from distant places; I will bring your descendants [back home] from the land to which they were exiled. [Then you] Israeli people will [again] live peacefully and safely, and there will not be any [nation] that will cause you to be terrified.
11 Jer sam ja s tobom, govori Gospod, da te izbavim; i uèiniæu kraj svijem narodima, meðu koje sam te rasijao, ali tebi neæu uèiniti kraja, nego æu te pokarati s mjerom, a neæu te ostaviti sasvijem bez kara.
I, Yahweh, say that I will be with you and will rescue you; I will completely destroy the nations to which I have scattered you. But I will not completely destroy you. I will punish you [for your many sins], but I will punish you [only] as severely as you deserve: I would be doing wrong if I did not punish you at all.”
12 Jer ovako veli Gospod: smrtan je polom tvoj i rana tvoja ljuta.
Yahweh [also] says this: “[You have (suffered very much/endured many disasters)]; [it is as though] you have a terrible wound that cannot be cured.
13 Nema nikoga koji bi se primio tvoje stvari da te lijeèi, nema lijeka koji bi ti pomogao.
There is no one to help you, no one to put a bandage on your wound. There is no [medicine that will] heal you.
14 Svi koji te ljube zaboraviše te, ne traže te, jer te udarih udarcem neprijateljskim, karom žestokim, za mnoštvo bezakonja tvojega, za silne grijehe tvoje.
All your allies [MET] have deserted you and they do not want to help you [any more]. [It is true that] I have punished you severely, [like your] enemies would wound you, because you have committed many sins and you are very guilty.
15 Zašto vièeš radi rane svoje, smrtnoga bola svojega? za mnoštvo bezakonja tvojega, za silne grijehe tvoje èinim ti to.
[Because that is true], why do you protest about my punishing you, [as though I had caused] a wound that could not be cured [RHQ]? It was necessary for me to punish you, because you had committed many sins and you were very guilty.
16 Ali svi koji te proždiru, proždrijeæe se, i neprijatelji tvoji svikoliki otiæi æe u ropstvo, i koji te gaze, biæe pogaženi, i sve koji te plijene, daæu ih da se oplijene.
But [some day] all those who [are trying to] destroy you will be destroyed; all your enemies will be exiled [to other nations]. All those who have stolen things from you will have their [valuable] possessions stolen, and all those who attack you will be attacked.
17 Jer æu te iscijeliti, i rane æu ti izlijeèiti, govori Gospod, jer te zvaše otjeranom: Sionom, kojega niko ne traži.
[Everyone] says that you are (outcasts/people that they no longer associate with), and that [you live in] Jerusalem, a city that no one cares about.” But Yahweh says, “I will heal your injuries/wounds and cause you to be healthy again.”
18 Ovako veli Gospod: evo, ja æu povratiti iz ropstva šatore Jakovljeve i smilovaæu se na stanove njegove; i grad æe se sazidati na mjestu svom, i dvor æe stajati na svoj naèin.
This is what Yahweh says: “I will bring the people of Israel back from the lands to which they were taken and enable them to possess their land and their houses again. [When that happens], Jerusalem will be rebuilt on top of its ruins, and the [king’s] palace will be rebuilt to be like it was before.
19 I iz njih æe izlaziti hvale i glas ljudi veselijeh, jer æu ih umnožiti, i neæe se umaljivati, i uzvisiæu ih, i neæe se poniziti.
People will [again] sing joyfully to thank [me], and I will cause there to be more people [in Jerusalem], not fewer; I will cause them to be honored, not despised.
20 I sinovi æe njegovi biti kao prije, i zbor æe njegov biti utvrðen preda mnom, i pohodiæu sve koji mu èine silu.
Their children will [prosper] like they did before. I will cause them to be a group of people [who worship] me, and I will punish any [nation] that oppresses them.
21 I knez æe njihov biti od njih, i vladalac æe njihov izlaziti isred njih; i daæu mu da pristupa, i pristupaæe k meni; jer ko je taj koji se usuðuje pristupiti k meni? govori Gospod.
One of their own people will be their king, and I will invite him to come close to me [to worship me], because no one [RHQ] would (dare/have courage) to come close to me [if I did not invite him].
22 I biæete mi narod, i ja æu vam biti Bog.
You [Israeli people] will be my people, and I will be your God.”
23 Gle, vihor Gospodnji, gnjev, iziæi æe, vihor, koji ne prestaje, pašæe na glavu bezbožnicima.
Yahweh will punish [MTY] [your enemies]; [it will be like a great] storm; it will come down [like] a whirlwind, swirling around the heads of wicked people.
24 Neæe se povratiti žestoki gnjev Gospodnji dokle ne uèini i izvrši što je naumio u srcu svom; napošljetku æete razumjeti to.
He will not stop being angry until he completely accomplishes [all] that he has planned. In the future, you will understand [all] of this [clearly].
