Jeremija 44
1 Rijeè koja doðe Jeremiji za sve Judejce koji življahu u zemlji Misirskoj, koji življahu u Migdolu i u Tafnesu i u Nofu i u zemlji Patrosu, govoreæi:
THE word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews which dwell in the land of Egypt, which dwell at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Noph, and in the country of Pathros, saying,
2 Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama Bog Izrailjev: vi vidjeste sve zlo što navedoh na Jerusalim i na sve gradove Judine, i evo su danas pusti i nema nikoga da živi u njima,
Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; Ye have seen all the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of Judah; and, behold, this day they are a desolation, and no man dwelleth therein,
3 Za zloæu njihovu koju èiniše da bi me gnjevili hodeæi da kade i služe drugim bogovima, kojih ne znaše ni oni ni vi ni oci vaši.
Because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in that they went to burn incense, and to serve other gods, whom they knew not, neither they, ye, nor your fathers.
4 I slah k vama sve sluge svoje proroke zarana jednako govoreæi: ne èinite toga gada, na koji mrzim.
Howbeit I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, rising early and sending them, saying, Oh, do not this abominable thing that I hate.
5 Ali ne poslušaše niti prignuše uha svojega da se vrate od zloæe svoje, da ne kade drugim bogovima.
But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear to turn from their wickedness, to burn no incense unto other gods.
6 Zato se izli jarost moja i gnjev moj, i razgorje se u gradovima Judinijem i po ulicama Jerusalimskim, te postaše razvaline i pustoš, kao što se vidi danas.
Wherefore my fury and mine anger was poured forth, and was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are wasted and desolate, as at this day.
7 A sada ovako veli Gospod Bog nad vojskama, Bog Izrailjev: zašto sami sebi èinite tako veliko zlo da istrijebite iz Jude ljude i žene, djecu i koja sisaju, da ne ostane u vas ostatka,
Therefore now thus saith the Lord, the God of hosts, the God of Israel; Wherefore commit ye this great evil against your souls, to cut off from you man and woman, child and suckling, out of Judah, to leave you none to remain;
8 Gnjeveæi me djelima ruku svojih, kadeæi drugim bogovima u zemlji Misirskoj, u koju doðoste da se stanite da biste se istrijebili i postali kletva i rug u svijeh naroda na zemlji.
In that ye provoke me unto wrath with the works of your hands, burning incense unto other gods in the land of Egypt, whither ye be gone to dwell, that ye might cut yourselves off, and that ye might be a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth?
9 Jeste li zaboravili zla otaca svojih i zla careva Judinijeh i zla žena njihovijeh, i svoja zla i zla žena svojih, koja èiniše u zemlji Judinoj i po ulicama Jerusalimskim?
Have ye forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives, which they have committed in the land of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
10 Ne pokoriše se do danas niti se pobojaše, niti hodiše po mom zakonu i uredbama mojim, koje stavih pred vas i pred oce vaše.
They are not humbled even unto this day, neither have they feared, nor walked in my law, nor in my statutes, that I set before you and before your fathers.
11 Zato ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama Bog Izrailjev: evo, ja æu vam obratiti lice svoje na zlo, da istrijebim sve Judejce.
Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will set my face against you for evil, and to cut off all Judah.
12 I uzeæu ostatak Judin, koji okrenu lice svoje da ide u zemlju Misirsku da se ondje stani, i izginuæe svi; u zemlji æe Misirskoj pasti i izginuti od maèa i od gladi, malo i veliko, izginuæe od maèa i od gladi, i biæe uklin i èudo i prokletstvo i rug.
And I will take the remnant of Judah, that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, and they shall all be consumed, and fall in the land of Egypt; they shall even be consumed by the sword and by the famine: they shall die, from the least even unto the greatest, by the sword and by the famine: and they shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach.
13 I pohodiæu one koji nastavaju u zemlji Misirskoj, kao što sam pohodio Jerusalim, maèem, glaðu i pomorom;
For I will punish them that dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have punished Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence:
14 I nijedan od ostatka Judina, što otidoše u zemlju Misirsku da se ondje stane, neæe uteæi niti se izbaviti da se vrate u zemlju Judinu, u koju se žele vratiti da se nasele; jer se neæe vratiti, osim koji pobjegnu.
So that none of the remnant of Judah, which are gone into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall escape or remain, that they should return into the land of Judah, to the which they have a desire to return to dwell there: for none shall return but such as shall escape.
15 Tada odgovoriše Jeremiji svi ljudi koji znaðahu da žene njihove kade drugim bogovima, i sve žene, kojih stajaše ondje velik zbor, i sav narod što življaše u zemlji Misirskoj, u Patrosu, govoreæi:
Then all the men which knew that their wives had burned incense unto other gods, and all the women that stood by, a great multitude, even all the people that dwelt in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying,
16 Što nam kaza u ime Gospodnje, neæemo te poslušati;
As for the word that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of the Lord, we will not hearken unto thee.
17 Nego æemo èiniti sve što je izašlo iz naših usta kadeæi carici nebeskoj i ljevajuæi joj naljeve, kao što smo èinili mi i oci naši, carevi naši i knezovi naši po gradovima Judinijem i po ulicama Jerusalimskim, jer bijasmo siti hljeba i bijaše nam dobro i zla ne viðasmo.
But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth out of our own mouth, to burn incense unto the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, as we have done, we, and our fathers, our kings, and our princes, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then had we plenty of victuals, and were well, and saw no evil.
18 A otkad prestasmo kaditi carici nebeskoj i ljevati joj naljeve, ništa nemamo i ginemo od maèa i od gladi.
But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine.
19 I kad kadimo carici nebeskoj i ljevamo joj naljeve, eda li joj bez glavara svojih peèemo kolaèe služeæi joj i ljevamo joj naljeve?
And when we burned incense to the queen of heaven, and poured out drink offerings unto her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink offerings unto her, without our men?
20 Tada reèe Jeremija svemu narodu, ljudima i ženama, i svemu narodu, koji mu onako odgovoriše, govoreæi:
Then Jeremiah said unto all the people, to the men, and to the women, and to all the people which had given him that answer, saying,
21 Eda li se ne opomenu Gospod kada, kojim kadiste u gradovima Judinijem i po ulicama Jerusalimskim vi i oci vaši, carevi vaši i knezovi vaši i narod zemaljski? i ne doðe li mu u srce?
The incense that ye burned in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, ye, and your fathers, your kings, and your princes, and the people of the land, did not the Lord remember them, and came it not into his mind?
22 I ne može Gospod više podnositi zloæe djela vaših i gadova koje èiniste, te zemlja vaša posta pustoš i èudo i prokletstvo, da niko ne živi u njoj, kako se vidi danas.
So that the Lord could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which ye have committed; therefore is your land a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without an inhabitant, as at this day.
23 Zato što kadiste i što griješiste Gospodu i ne slušaste glasa Gospodnjega, i po zakonu njegovu i uredbama njegovijem i svjedoèanstvima njegovijem ne hodiste, zato vas zadesi ovo zlo, kako se vidi danas.
Because ye have burned incense, and because ye have sinned against the Lord, and have not obeyed the voice of the Lord, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil is happened unto you, as at this day.
24 Još reèe Jeremija svemu narodu i svijem ženama: èujte rijeè Gospodnju, svi Judejci, koji ste u zemlji Misirskoj.
Moreover Jeremiah said unto all the people, and to all the women, Hear the word of the Lord, all Judah that are in the land of Egypt:
25 Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama Bog Izrailjev govoreæi: vi i žene vaše rekoste ustima svojim i rukama svojim izvršiste govoreæi: izvršivaæemo zavjete svoje što zavjetovasmo kadeæi carici nebeskoj i ljevajuæi joj naljeve. Doista ispuniste zavjete svoje i izvršiste.
Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, saying; Ye and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your hand, saying, We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her: ye will surely accomplish your vows, and surely perform your vows.
26 Zato èujte Judejci rijeè Gospodnju, svi Judejci koji stanujete u zemlji Misirskoj: evo, ja se zaklinjem velikim imenom svojim, veli Gospod, da se ime moje neæe više izricati ustima nijednoga Judejca u svoj zemlji Misirskoj da bi rekao: tako da je živ Gospod Gospod!
Therefore hear ye the word of the Lord, all Judah that dwell in the land of Egypt; Behold, I have sworn by my great name, saith the Lord, that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, The Lord God liveth.
27 Evo, ja æu paziti na njih zla radi, ne dobra radi, i Judejci koji su u zemlji Misirskoj svi æe ginuti od maèa i od gladi, dokle ih ne bude nijednoga.
Behold, I will watch over them for evil, and not for good: and all the men of Judah that are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until there be an end of them.
28 A koji uteku od maèa, vratiæe se iz zemlje Misirske u zemlju Judinu, malo njih, jer sav ostatak Judin, što otidoše u zemlju Misirsku da se ondje nastane, poznaæe èija æe se rijeè navršiti, moja ili njihova.
Yet a small number that escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah, and all the remnant of Judah, that are gone into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall know whose words shall stand, mine, or theirs.
29 A ovo da vam je znak, govori Gospod, da æu vas pohoditi na tom mjestu da znate da æe se doista ispuniti rijeèi moje vama na zlo;
And this shall be a sign unto you, saith the Lord, that I will punish you in this place, that ye may know that my words shall surely stand against you for evil:
30 Ovako veli Gospod: evo, ja æu dati Faraona Vafrija cara Misirskoga u ruke neprijateljima njegovijem i u ruke onijem koji traže dušu njegovu, kao što sam dao Sedekiju cara Judina u ruke Navuhodonosoru caru Vavilonskom, neprijatelju njegovu i koji tražaše dušu njegovu.
Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I will give Pharaoh-hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of them that seek his life; as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, his enemy, and that sought his life.
