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.
This is a message about Moab. The Commander of the armies of angels said: “Terrible things will happen to Nebo [town]; it will [soon] be ruined. Kiriathaim [city] will be captured and [all its people will be] humiliated; the high wall around their city will be ruined, and [its people] will become ashamed.
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.
No one will boast about Moab again; the [enemies of Moab] will plan to destroy [the capital city, ] Heshbon. [They will say, ] ‘Come, let’s cause Moab to no longer be a nation.’ You people in Madmen [town], you also will be silenced; enemy armies [MTY] will pursue you.
3 Èuje se vika iz Oronajima, pustošenje i satiranje veliko.
Listen to the people of Horonaim [town] screaming; [they will be wailing because their town will have been] devastated and destroyed [DOU].
4 Moav se satr; stoji vika djece njegove.
[All of] Moab will be ruined; [even] the little children will cry [loudly].
5 Jer æe se putem Luitskim dizati plaè bez prestanka; i kako se slazi u Oronajim, neprijatelji æe èuti strašnu viku:
They will cry bitterly as they climb up Luhith [Hill]. [Others will wail] on the road down to Horonaim, being very sad because of [their town being] destroyed.
6 Bježite, izbavite duše svoje, i budite kao vrijes u pustinji.
[Someone will say to them], ‘Flee! Hide 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.
But you trusted that because you were rich and powerful, [you would be safe]; so you will be captured. [The statue of your god] Chemosh and all his priests and officials will be taken away to distant lands.
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.
All the towns [in Moab] will be destroyed; none of them will escape. [Towns in] the valleys and on the plateau will [all] be destroyed, because [I, ] Yahweh, have said that is what will happen.
9 Podajte krila Moavu, neka brzo odleti; jer æe gradovi njegovi opustjeti da neæe niko živjeti u njima.
Spread salt on the ground in order that it will become a wasteland with [nothing growing there any more], and no one will be living in it!”
10 Proklet bio ko nemarno radi djelo Gospodnje, i proklet ko usteže maè svoj od krvi!
Yahweh will curse anyone who will not eagerly do what he desires, anyone who refrains from using his sword to kill [MTY] others [in Moab].
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.
[The people of] Moab have always felt secure; they have never been (exiled/forced [by their enemies] to go to other countries). They are like [MET] wine that has been left undisturbed [in a container for many days to give it good flavor], so now it smells good, and it tastes good.
12 Zato, evo, idu dani, govori Gospod, da mu pošljem premetaèe, koji æe ga premetnuti, i sudove njegove isprazniti i mjehove njegove pokidati.
But Yahweh says that there will be a time when he will send [enemies to attack them]; they will get rid of the people of Moab like people pour out wine [on the ground] and then smash the wine jar.
13 I Moav æe se osramotiti s Hamosa, kao što se osramotio dom Izrailjev s Vetilja, gada svojega.
Then [the people of] Moab will be ashamed of [their god/idol] Chemosh [because it did not help them], like the Israeli people were ashamed because their gold statue of a calf [was smashed] at Bethel.
14 Kako govorite: jaki smo i junaci u boju?
[The soldiers of Moab previously] said, “We are warriors; we have fought bravely in battles!”
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.
But now our King, who is Yahweh, who is called ‘the Commander of the armies of angels’, says that [the country of] Moab and all the towns in it will be destroyed. Their fine young men will [all] be slaughtered.
16 Blizu je pogibao Moavova, i zlo njegovo vrlo hiti.
Moab will very soon be destroyed. It will soon experience disaster.
17 Žalite ga svi koji ste oko njega, i koji god znate za ime njegovo, recite: kako se slomi jaki štap, slavna palica?
You [people who live in nations] near Moab, who know that it is very famous, should mourn for Moab, and say, “Its glorious power [MTY, DOU] is [completely] ended/broken.”
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.
You people of Dibon [city], stop being proud because of being honored, and sit in the dust/dirt, because those who will destroy other places in Moab will attack your [city] and destroy your high walls.
19 Stani na putu, i pogledaj, koja živiš u Aroiru, upitaj onoga koji bježi i onu koja gleda da se izbavi, reci: što bi?
You people of Aroer [town], stand along the road and watch. Shout to the men and women who will be fleeing [from Moab], “What has happened [there]?”
20 Posrami se Moav; jer se razbi; ridajte i vièite; javite u Arnon da se Moav opustoši.
[They will reply], “Moab is ruined and [we are] disgraced!” [So] weep and wail [DOU]. Proclaim at the Aroer [River] that Moab has been destroyed.
21 Jer sud doðe na zemlju ravnu, na Olon i na Jasu i Mifat,
[Yahweh] will have punished [the towns in Moab that are on] the (plateau/high level): Holon and Jahaz and Mephaath,
22 I na Devon i na Nevon i na Vet-Devlatajim,
Dibon and Nebo and Beth-Diblathaim,
23 I na Kirijatajim i na Vet-Gamul i na Vet-Meon,
Kiriathaim and 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.
Kerioth and Bozrah, cities that are near [each other] and towns that are far away [from each other].
25 Odbijen je rog Moavu, i mišica se njegova slomi, govori Gospod.
Yahweh says, “The power [MTY] of Moab will be ended; [it is as though] [MET] Moab will have a broken arm.
26 Opojte ga, jer se podigao na Gospoda; neka se valja Moav u bljuvotini svojoj, i bude i on potsmijeh.
[You people of] Moab have rebelled against [me, ] Yahweh; so [now] I will cause you all to [stagger like] [SIM] drunken people. [You people of] will wallow in your own vomit and be ridiculed.
27 Jer nije li tebi Izrailj bio potsmijeh? je li se zatekao meðu lupežima, te kad god govoriš o njemu poskakuješ?
You [people of Moab] ridiculed [the people of] Israel [RHQ]. You treated them as though they were thieves [RHQ]. You shook your head at them scornfully and despised them [RHQ].
28 Ostavite gradove i naselite se u stijeni, stanovnici Moavski, i budite kao golubica koja se gnijezdi u kraju i rasjelini.
You people who live in Moab, you should abandon your towns and go and live in caves. Be like [SIM] doves that make their nests in the entrances of caves.”
29 Èusmo ponos Moavov da je veoma ponosit, oholost njegovu i ponos, razmetanje njegovo i obijest njegovu.
We have [all] heard that [the people of] are very proud; they are extremely proud and conceited/arrogant. [IDM, DOU]
30 Znam ja, govori Gospod, obijest njegovu; ali neæe biti tako; laži njegove neæe uèiniti ništa.
But Yahweh says, “I know about that, but it is useless for them to boast [because] it will accomplish nothing.
31 Zato æu ridati za Moavom, vikati za svijem Moavom, uzdisaæe se za onima u Kir-Eresu.
So [now] I will wail for Moab; I will cry about all its people. I will moan for the men of Kir-Hareseth [city], [the old capital of Moab].
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.
You people of Sibmah [city], you have many vineyards. [It is as though] the branches of your vines extend across the [Dead] Sea to Jazer [city].
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.
But no one will be joyful or happy in Moab now; your fruit and grapes that ripen in the (summer/hot season) will soon be destroyed. There will be no grape juice coming from the winepresses, [so] there will be no wine. People will not shout joyfully as they tread on the grapes; people will shout, but they will not be shouting joyfully.
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.
Instead, the sound of their wailing will rise from Heshbon [city] to Elealeh [town] and Jahaz [village], from Zoar [city] as far as Horonaim [town] and Eglath-Shelishiyah [village]. Even the water in Nimrim [Stream] will be dried up.
35 I uèiniæu, govori Gospod, da ne bude Moavu èovjeka koji bi prinosio žrtvu na visini i kadio bogovima svojim.
[I, ] Yahweh, say that I will get rid of the people who offer sacrifices on the hilltops, 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.
I [SYN] moan for the people of Moab and Kir-Hareseth like [SIM] [someone playing a funeral song on] a flute, because [all] their wealth will disappear.
37 Jer æe sve glave biti æelave i sve brade obrijane, i sve ruke izrezane, i oko bedara kostrijet.
The men will shave their heads and their beards [to show that they are mourning]. They all will slash their hands and wear (rough cloth/sackcloth) around their waists.
38 Na svijem krovovima Moavovijem i po ulicama njegovijem biæe sam plaè, jer æu razbiti Moava kao sud na kom nema miline, govori Gospod.
In every home and in the town plazas/centers in Moab there will be [people who are] mourning, because I will have destroyed Moab like [SIM] someone smashes an [old] jar that no one wants [any more].
39 Ridajte: kako je satrven! kako Moav obrnu pleæi sramotan? i posta Moav potsmijeh i strahota svjema koji su oko njega.
Moab will be completely shattered! And you will hear the people wailing loudly! They will be disgraced. Moab will become a nation that people ridicule. The people in nearby [countries] will be horrified [about what has happened there].
40 Jer ovako govori Gospod: evo, kao orao doletjeæe i raširiæe krila svoja nad Moavom.
This is what [I, ] Yahweh, say: ‘Look! Their enemies will be swooping/rushing down over Moab like an eagle [SIM] swoops down [to seize an animal].
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.
Its cities will be captured, its fortresses will be seized. [Even] their warriors will be [afraid], like [SIM] a woman who is about to give birth.
42 I Moav æe se istrijebiti da ne bude narod, jer se podiže na Gospoda.
[The leaders of] Moab boasted against [me, ] Yahweh, so Moab will be destroyed.
43 Strah i jama i zamka oko tebe je, stanovnièe Moavski, govori Gospod.
[I, ] Yahweh, say that you people of Moab will be terrified, and fall into pits and traps.
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.
Those who are terrified and try to run away will fall into deep pits. Whoever climbs out of a pit will be caught in a trap, because I will punish them at the time that I have chosen.’
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.
The people will flee as far as Heshbon [city], but they will not be able to go any further, because a fire will burn in Heshbon, [which is the city] where [King] Sihon lived [long ago], and it will burn up all the people [SYN] in Moab who noisily/loudly boasted very much.
46 Teško tebi, Moave, propade narod Hamosov, jer sinove tvoje zarobiše, i kæeri tvoje odvedoše u ropstvo.
[You people of] Moab, terrible things will happen to you! You people who worship [your god] Chemosh, you will be destroyed. Your sons and your daughters will be captured and taken away [to other countries].
47 Ali æu povratiti roblje Moavovo u pošljednje vrijeme, govori Gospod. Dovde je sud Moavu.
But some day, I will enable the people of Moab to return to their land again. [That will surely happen because I, ] Yahweh, have said it.” That is the end of what I prophesied about Moab.
