< Jeremija 47 >
1 Rijeè Gospodnja koja doðe Jeremiji proroku za Filisteje prije nego Faraon osvoji Gazu.
The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Philistines, before the time that Pharaoh smote Gazzah.
2 Ovako veli Gospod: evo, voda dolazi sa sjevera, i biæe kao potok koji se razljeva, i potopiæe zemlju i što je u njoj, grad i one koji žive u njemu; i ljudi æe vikati, i ridaæe svi stanovnici zemaljski.
Thus hath said the Lord, Behold, waters are coming up out of the north, and they shall become an overflowing stream, and shall overflow the land, and what filleth it; the city, and those that dwell therein: and the men shall cry aloud, and every inhabitant of the land shall wail.
3 Od topota kopita jakih konja njegovijeh, od tutnjave kola njegovijeh, i praske toèkova njegovijeh, neæe se obazreti ocevi na sinove, jer æe im ruke klonuti,
Because of the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his stud-horses, because of the rushing sound of his chariots, the rumbling of his wheels, fathers do not turn round to their children from their feebleness of hands;
4 Od onoga dana koji æe doæi da istrijebi sve Filisteje i da zatre Tir i Sidon i sve ostale pomoænike, jer æe Gospod istrijebiti Filisteje, ostatak ostrva Kaftora.
Because of the day that cometh to devastate all the Philistines, to cut off from Tyre and Zidon every helper that remaineth; for the Lord devastateth the Philistines, the remnant of the isle of Caphthor.
5 Oæelaviæe Gaza, propašæe Askalon i ostatak doline njihove; dokle æeš se rezati?
Baldness is come upon Gazzah; ruined is Ashkelon with the remnant of their valley: how long yet wilt thou cut thyself?
6 Jaoh, maèu Gospodnji, kad æeš se smiriti? vrati se u korice svoje, stani i smiri se.
Woe! thou sword of the Lord, how long yet wilt thou not be quiet? withdraw thyself into thy scabbard, take thee rest, and be still.
7 Ali kako bi se smirio? jer mu Gospod dade zapovijest na Askalon i na primorje; onamo ga odredi.
Yet how canst thou be quiet? When the Lord hath given it a charge, against Ashkelon, and against the sea-coast—thither hath he destined it.
