Jeremija 34
1 Rijeè koja doðe Jeremiji od Gospoda, kad Navuhodonosor car Vavilonski i sva vojska njegova, i sva carstva zemaljska koja bijahu pod njegovom vlašæu, i svi narodi vojevahu na Jerusalim i na sve gradove njegove, i reèe:
The word which came unto Jeremiah from Yahweh, —when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and all his force and all the kingdoms of the earth the dominion of his hand, and all the peoples were fighting against Jerusalem and against all her cities, saying:
2 Ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: idi i kaži Sedekiji caru Judinu i reci mu: ovako veli Gospod: evo, ja æu predati taj grad u ruke caru Vavilonskom, i on æe ga spaliti ognjem.
Thus, saith Yahweh God of Israel, Go and speak unto Zedekiah king of Judah, —and say unto him—Thus, saith Yahweh, Behold me! giving this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will burn it with fire;
3 A ti neæeš uteæi iz njegove ruke, nego æeš biti uhvaæen i predan u njegove ruke, i oèi æe se tvoje vidjeti s oèima cara Vavilonskoga i njegova æe usta govoriti s tvojim ustima, i otiæi æeš u Vavilon.
And, thou, shalt not escape out of his hand, For thou shalt be, taken, And into his hand, shalt thou be delivered, —And, thine own eyes, into the eyes of the king of Babylon, shall look, And his mouth, with thy mouth, shall speak And Babylon, shalt thou enter.
4 Ali èuj rijeè Gospodnju, Sedekija care Judin; ovako veli Gospod za te: neæeš poginuti od maèa.
Nevertheless, hear the word of Yahweh, O Zedekiah, king of Judah, —Thus, saith Yahweh Concerning thee, Thou shalt not die, by the sword;
5 Nego æeš umrijeti na miru, i kao što pališe ocima tvojima, preðašnjim carevima, koji su bili prije tebe, tako æe paliti i tebi, i naricaæe za tobom: jaoh gospodaru! jer ja rekoh ovo, govori Gospod.
In peace, shalt thou die, And with the burnings made for thy fathers the former kings who were before thee, so, shall they make a burning unto thee, And, with an, Alas lord! shall they lament thee, —Because of the word, I, have spoken, Declareth Yahweh.
6 I kaza Jeremija prorok Sedekiji caru Judinu sve ove rijeèi u Jerusalimu.
Then spake Jeremiah the prophet, unto Zedekiah king of Judah all these words in Jerusalem;
7 A vojska cara Vavilonskoga udaraše na Jerusalim i na sve ostale gradove Judine, na Lahis i Aziku, jer ti bjehu ostali tvrdi gradovi izmeðu gradova Judinijeh.
when, the force of the king of Babylon, was fighting against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Judah that were left, —against Lachish and against Azekah, for they, remained among the cities of Judah as fortified cities.
8 Rijeè koja doðe Jeremiji od Gospoda kad car Sedekija uèini zavjet sa svijem narodom koji bješe u Jerusalimu da im proglasi slobodu,
The word which came unto Jeremiah, from Yahweh, —after that King Zedekiah had solemnised a covenant with all the people who were in Jerusalem, proclaiming unto them liberty:
9 Da svaki otpusti slobodna roba svojega i robinju svoju, Jevrejina i Jevrejku, da ni u koga ne bude rob Judejac brat njegov.
that every man should let his servant and every man his handmaid, being a Hebrew or a Hebrewess, go free, —so that no man should use them as slaves, to wit a Jew his brother;
10 I poslušaše svi knezovi i sav narod, koji prista na zavjet, da svaki otpusti slobodna roba svojega i robinju svoju, da im ne budu više robovi, poslušaše i otpustiše.
so then they hearkened—even all the princes and all the people who had entered into the covenant that every man should let his servant and every man his handmaid, go free, so as not to use them as slaves, any longer, —yea they hearkened, and let them go,
11 A poslije opet staše uzimati robove i robinje, koje bijahu otpustili na volju, i nagoniše ih da im budu robovi i robinje.
howbeit they turned after that, and brought back the servants and the handmaids whom they had let go, free, and brought them into subjection as servants and as handmaids,
12 I doðe rijeè Gospodnja Jeremiji od Gospoda govoreæi:
So then the word of Yahweh came unto Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying:
13 Ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: ja uèinih zavjet s ocima vašim kad vas izvedoh iz zemlje Misirske, iz doma ropskoga, govoreæi:
Thus, saith Yahweh God of Israel, —I myself, solemnised a covenant with your fathers, in the day when I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slaves saying:
14 Kad se svršuje sedma godina, otpuštajte svaki brata svojega Jevrejina koji ti se bude prodao i služio ti šest godina, otpusti ga slobodna od sebe. Ali ne poslušaše me oci vaši niti prignuše uha svojega.
At the end of seven years, shall ye let go every man his brother, being a Hebrew, who shall sell himself unto thee and serve thee, six years, then shalt thou let him go, free, from thee, Howbeit your fathers hearkened not unto me neither inclined their ear.
15 I vi se bjeste sada obratili i uèinili što je pravo preda mnom proglasivši slobodu svaki bližnjemu svojemu, uèinivši zavjet preda mnom u domu koji se zove mojim imenom.
And, though, ye, just now turned and did that which was right in mine eyes, by proclaiming liberty, every man to his neighbour, —and solemnised a covenant before me, in the house on which my Name hath been called,
16 Ali udariste natrag i pogrdiste ime moje uzevši opet svaki roba svojega i robinju svoju, koje bijaste otpustili slobodne na njihovu volju, i natjeraste ih da vam budu robovi i robinje.
yet have ye turned and profaned my Name, and brought back, every man his servant and every man his hand-maid, whom ye had let go, free, at their own desire, —and have brought them into subjection, to become your servants and handmaids.
17 Zato ovako veli Gospod: vi ne poslušaste mene da proglasite slobodu svaki bratu svojemu i bližnjemu svojemu; evo, ja proglašujem slobodu suprot vama, govori Gospod, maèu, pomoru i gladi, i predaæu vas da se potucate po svijem carstvima zemaljskim.
Therefore—Thus, saith Yahweh, Ye, have not hearkened unto me, in proclaiming liberty, every man to his brother and every man to his neighbour: Behold me! proclaiming, to you, a liberty: Declareth Yahweh unto the sword, unto the pestilence, and unto the famine, so will I make you a terror to all the kingdoms of the earth;
18 I predaæu ljude koji prestupiše moj zavjet, koji ne izvršiše rijeèi zavjeta koji uèiniše preda mnom, rasjekavši tele na dvoje i prošavši izmeðu polovina,
and will give the men who are transgressing my covenant, in that they have not confirmed the words of the covenant, which they solemnised, before me, when they cut the calf, in twain, and passed between the parts thereof;
19 Knezove Judine i knezove Jerusalimske, dvorane i sveštenike i sav narod ove zemlje, koji proðoše izmeðu polovina onoga teleta,
even the princes of Judah, and the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs and the priests, and all the people of the land, —who passed between the parts of the calf,
20 Predaæu ih u ruke neprijateljima njihovijem i u ruke onima koji traže dušu njihovu, i mrtva æe tijela njihova biti hrana pticama nebeskim i zvijerima zemaljskim.
yea I will give them into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them who are seeking their life, —and their dead bodies shall become food for the birds of the heavens, and for the beasts of the earth.
21 I Sedekiju cara Judina i knezove njegove predaæu u ruke neprijateljima njihovijem i u ruke onima koji traže dušu njihovu, u ruke vojsci cara Vavilonskoga, koja se vratila od vas.
Zedekiah king of Judah also with his princes, will I give into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them who are seeking their life, —even into the hand of the force of the king of Babylon, who are going up from you.
22 Evo, ja æu im zapovjediti, veli Gospod, i dovešæu ih opet na ovaj grad, i biæe ga i uzeæe ga i spaliæe ga ognjem; i gradove Judine obratiæu u pustoš da niko neæe stanovati u njima.
Behold me! giving command, Declareth Yahweh, and I will bring them back unto this city, and they will fight against it and capture it, and consume it with fire, —and, the cities of Judah, will I make too desolate to have an inhabitant.
