Jeremija 48
1 Za Moava ovako govori Gospod nad vojskama Bog Izrailjev: teško Nevonu! jer æe se opustošiti; Kirijatajim æe se posramiti i uzeti; Mizgav æe se posramiti i prepasti.
Concerning Moab, this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: “Woe to Nebo, for it will be devastated. Kiriathaim will be captured and disgraced; the fortress will be shattered and dismantled.
2 Neæe se više hvaliti Moav Esevonom; jer mu zlo misle: hodite da ga istrijebimo da nije više narod. I ti, Madmene, opustjeæeš; maè æe te goniti.
There is no longer praise for Moab; in Heshbon they devise evil against her: ‘Come, let us cut her off from nationhood.’ You too, O people of Madmen, will be silenced; the sword will pursue you.
3 Èuje se vika iz Oronajima, pustošenje i satiranje veliko.
A voice cries out from Horonaim: ‘Devastation and great destruction!’
4 Moav se satr; stoji vika djece njegove.
Moab will be shattered; her little ones will cry out.
5 Jer æe se putem Luitskim dizati plaè bez prestanka; i kako se slazi u Oronajim, neprijatelji æe èuti strašnu viku:
For on the ascent to Luhith they weep bitterly as they go, and on the descent to Horonaim cries of distress resound over the destruction:
6 Bježite, izbavite duše svoje, i budite kao vrijes u pustinji.
‘Flee! Run for your lives! Become like a juniper in the desert.’
7 Jer što se uzdaš u svoja djela i u blago svoje, zato æeš se i ti uzeti, i Hamos æe otiæi u ropstvo, sveštenici njegovi i knezovi njegovi skupa.
Because you trust in your works and treasures, you too will be captured, and Chemosh will go into exile with his priests and officials.
8 I doæi æe zatiraè u svaki grad, neæe se saèuvati ni jedan grad; dolina æe propasti i ravnica æe se opustošiti, jer Gospod reèe.
The destroyer will move against every city, and not one town will escape. The valley will also be ruined, and the high plain will be destroyed, as the LORD has said.
9 Podajte krila Moavu, neka brzo odleti; jer æe gradovi njegovi opustjeti da neæe niko živjeti u njima.
Put salt on Moab, for she will be laid waste; her cities will become desolate, with no one to dwell in them.
10 Proklet bio ko nemarno radi djelo Gospodnje, i proklet ko usteže maè svoj od krvi!
Cursed is the one who is remiss in doing the work of the LORD, and cursed is he who withholds his sword from bloodshed.
11 Moav je bio u miru od djetinjstva svojega i poèivao na droždini svojoj, niti se pretakao iz suda u sud, niti je u ropstvo išao; zato mu osta kus njegov, i miris se njegov nije promijenio.
Moab has been at ease from youth, settled like wine on its dregs; he has not been poured from vessel to vessel or gone into exile. So his flavor has remained the same, and his aroma is unchanged.
12 Zato, evo, idu dani, govori Gospod, da mu pošljem premetaèe, koji æe ga premetnuti, i sudove njegove isprazniti i mjehove njegove pokidati.
Therefore behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will send to him wanderers, who will pour him out. They will empty his vessels and shatter his jars.
13 I Moav æe se osramotiti s Hamosa, kao što se osramotio dom Izrailjev s Vetilja, gada svojega.
Then Moab will be ashamed of Chemosh, just as the house of Israel was ashamed when they trusted in Bethel.
14 Kako govorite: jaki smo i junaci u boju?
How can you say, ‘We are warriors, mighty men ready for battle’?
15 Moav æe se opustošiti i gradovi æe njegovi propasti, i najbolji mladiæi njegovi siæi æe na zaklanje, govori car, kojemu je ime Gospod nad vojskama.
Moab has been destroyed and its towns have been invaded; the best of its young men have gone down in the slaughter, declares the King, whose name is the LORD of Hosts.
16 Blizu je pogibao Moavova, i zlo njegovo vrlo hiti.
Moab’s calamity is at hand, and his affliction is rushing swiftly.
17 Žalite ga svi koji ste oko njega, i koji god znate za ime njegovo, recite: kako se slomi jaki štap, slavna palica?
Mourn for him, all you who surround him, everyone who knows his name; tell how the mighty scepter is shattered— the glorious staff!
18 Siði sa slave svoje, i sjedi na mjesto zasušeno, kæeri, koja živiš u Devonu; jer æe zatiraè Moavov doæi na tebe i raskopaæe gradove tvoje.
Come down from your glory; sit on parched ground, O daughter dwelling in Dibon, for the destroyer of Moab has come against you; he has destroyed your fortresses.
19 Stani na putu, i pogledaj, koja živiš u Aroiru, upitaj onoga koji bježi i onu koja gleda da se izbavi, reci: što bi?
Stand by the road and watch, O dweller of Aroer! Ask the man fleeing or the woman escaping, ‘What has happened?’
20 Posrami se Moav; jer se razbi; ridajte i vièite; javite u Arnon da se Moav opustoši.
Moab is put to shame, for it has been shattered. Wail and cry out! Declare by the Arnon that Moab is destroyed.
21 Jer sud doðe na zemlju ravnu, na Olon i na Jasu i Mifat,
Judgment has come upon the high plain— upon Holon, Jahzah, and Mephaath,
22 I na Devon i na Nevon i na Vet-Devlatajim,
upon Dibon, Nebo, and Beth-diblathaim,
23 I na Kirijatajim i na Vet-Gamul i na Vet-Meon,
upon Kiriathaim, Beth-gamul, and Beth-meon,
24 I na Keriot i na Vosoru, i na sve gradove zemlje Moavske, koji su daleko i koji su blizu.
upon Kerioth, Bozrah, and all the towns of Moab, those far and near.
25 Odbijen je rog Moavu, i mišica se njegova slomi, govori Gospod.
The horn of Moab has been cut off, and his arm is broken,”
26 Opojte ga, jer se podigao na Gospoda; neka se valja Moav u bljuvotini svojoj, i bude i on potsmijeh.
“Make him drunk, because he has magnified himself against the LORD; so Moab will wallow in his own vomit, and he will also become a laughingstock.
27 Jer nije li tebi Izrailj bio potsmijeh? je li se zatekao meðu lupežima, te kad god govoriš o njemu poskakuješ?
Was not Israel your object of ridicule? Was he ever found among thieves? For whenever you speak of him you shake your head.
28 Ostavite gradove i naselite se u stijeni, stanovnici Moavski, i budite kao golubica koja se gnijezdi u kraju i rasjelini.
Abandon the towns and settle among the rocks, O dwellers of Moab! Be like a dove that nests at the mouth of a cave.
29 Èusmo ponos Moavov da je veoma ponosit, oholost njegovu i ponos, razmetanje njegovo i obijest njegovu.
We have heard of Moab’s pomposity, his exceeding pride and conceit, his proud arrogance and haughtiness of heart.
30 Znam ja, govori Gospod, obijest njegovu; ali neæe biti tako; laži njegove neæe uèiniti ništa.
I know his insolence,” declares the LORD, “but it is futile. His boasting is as empty as his deeds.
31 Zato æu ridati za Moavom, vikati za svijem Moavom, uzdisaæe se za onima u Kir-Eresu.
Therefore I will wail for Moab; I will cry out for all of Moab; I will moan for the men of Kir-heres.
32 Više nego za Jazirom plakaæu za tobom, lozo Sivamska; odvode tvoje prijeðoše more, dopriješe do mora Jazirskoga; zatiraè napade na ljetinu tvoju i na berbu tvoju.
I will weep for you, O vine of Sibmah, more than I weep for Jazer. Your tendrils have extended to the sea; they reach even to Jazer. The destroyer has descended on your summer fruit and grape harvest.
33 I radost i veselje otide s rodnoga polja, iz zemlje Moavske, i uèinih te nesta u kacama vina; niko neæe gaziti pjevajuæi; pjesma neæe se više pjevati.
Joy and gladness are removed from the orchard and from the fields of Moab. I have stopped the flow of wine from the presses; no one treads them with shouts of joy; their shouts are not for joy.
34 Od vike Esevonske, koja doprije do Eleale, podigoše viku do Jase, od Sigora do Oronajima, kao junica od tri godine, jer æe i voda Nimrimskih nestati.
There is a cry from Heshbon to Elealeh; they raise their voices to Jahaz, from Zoar to Horonaim and Eglath-shelishiyah; for even the waters of Nimrim have dried up.
35 I uèiniæu, govori Gospod, da ne bude Moavu èovjeka koji bi prinosio žrtvu na visini i kadio bogovima svojim.
In Moab, declares the LORD, I will bring an end to those who make offerings on the high places and burn incense to their gods.
36 Zato æe srce moje pištati za Moavom kao svirala, i srce æe moje pištati kao svirala za ljudima u Kir-Eresu, jer æe mu sva teèevina propasti.
Therefore My heart laments like a flute for Moab; it laments like a flute for the men of Kir-heres, because the wealth they acquired has perished.
37 Jer æe sve glave biti æelave i sve brade obrijane, i sve ruke izrezane, i oko bedara kostrijet.
For every head is shaved and every beard is clipped; on every hand is a gash, and around every waist is sackcloth.
38 Na svijem krovovima Moavovijem i po ulicama njegovijem biæe sam plaè, jer æu razbiti Moava kao sud na kom nema miline, govori Gospod.
On all the rooftops of Moab and in the public squares, everyone is mourning; for I have shattered Moab like an unwanted jar,”
39 Ridajte: kako je satrven! kako Moav obrnu pleæi sramotan? i posta Moav potsmijeh i strahota svjema koji su oko njega.
“How shattered it is! How they wail! How Moab has turned his back in shame! Moab has become an object of ridicule and horror to all those around him.”
40 Jer ovako govori Gospod: evo, kao orao doletjeæe i raširiæe krila svoja nad Moavom.
For this is what the LORD says: “Behold, an eagle swoops down and spreads his wings against Moab.
41 Kerijot je pokoren i tvrda se mjesta zauzeše, i srca æe u junaka Moavovijeh biti u onaj dan kao srce u žene koja se poraða.
Kirioth has been taken, and the strongholds seized. In that day the heart of Moab’s warriors will be like the heart of a woman in labor.
42 I Moav æe se istrijebiti da ne bude narod, jer se podiže na Gospoda.
Moab will be destroyed as a nation because he vaunted himself against the LORD.
43 Strah i jama i zamka oko tebe je, stanovnièe Moavski, govori Gospod.
Terror and pit and snare await you, O dweller of Moab,”
44 Ko uteèe od straha, pašæe u jamu, a ko izljeze iz jame, uhvatiæe se u zamku; jer æu pustiti na njega, na Moava, godinu pohoðenja njihova, govori Gospod.
“Whoever flees the panic will fall into the pit, and whoever climbs from the pit will be caught in the snare. For I will bring upon Moab the year of their punishment,”
45 U sjenu Esevonskom ustaviše se koji bježahu od sile; ali æe oganj izaæi iz Esevona i plamen isred Siona, i opaliæe kraj Moavu i tjeme nemirnicima.
“Those who flee will stand helpless in Heshbon’s shadow, because fire has gone forth from Heshbon and a flame from within Sihon. It devours the foreheads of Moab and the skulls of the sons of tumult.
46 Teško tebi, Moave, propade narod Hamosov, jer sinove tvoje zarobiše, i kæeri tvoje odvedoše u ropstvo.
Woe to you, O Moab! The people of Chemosh have perished; for your sons have been taken into exile and your daughters have gone into captivity.
47 Ali æu povratiti roblje Moavovo u pošljednje vrijeme, govori Gospod. Dovde je sud Moavu.
Yet in the latter days I will restore Moab from captivity,” declares the LORD. Here ends the judgment on Moab.
