Jeremija 51
1 Ovako govori Gospod: evo, ja æu podignuti na Vavilon i na one koji žive usred onijeh koji ustaju na me vjetar koji mori.
Thus says Jehovah: Behold, I will raise up against Babylon, and against those who dwell in Leb-kamai, a destroying wind.
2 Poslaæu na Vavilon vijaèe koji æe ga razvijati i zemlju njegovu isprazniti, jer æe ga opkoliti sa svijeh strana u dan nevolje njegove.
And I will send strangers to Babylon, who shall winnow her, and they shall empty her land. For in the day of trouble they shall be against her round about.
3 Strijelac neka nateže luk na strijelca i na onoga koji se ponosi svojim oklopom; i ne žalite mladiæa njegovijeh, potrite mu svu vojsku,
Against him who bends let the archer bend his bow, and against him who lifts himself up in his coat of mail. And spare ye not her young men. Destroy ye utterly all her host.
4 Neka padnu pobijeni u zemlji Haldejskoj i izbodeni na ulicama njegovijem.
And they shall fall down slain in the land of the Chaldeans, and thrust through in her streets.
5 Jer nije ostavio Izrailja i Jude Bog njihov, Gospod nad vojskama, ako i jest zemlja njihova puna krivice svecu Izrailjevu.
For Israel is not forsaken, nor Judah, of his God, of Jehovah of hosts, though their land is full of guilt against the Holy One of Israel.
6 Bježite iz Vavilona i izbavite svaki dušu svoju da se ne istrijebite u bezakonju njegovu, jer je vrijeme osvete Gospodnje, plaæa mu što je zaslužio.
Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and save every man his life. Be not cut off in her iniquity, for it is the time of Jehovah's vengeance; he will render to her a recompense.
7 Vavilon bijaše zlatna èaša u ruci Gospodnjoj, kojom opoji svu zemlju; vina njegova piše narodi, zato poludješe narodi.
Babylon has been a golden cup in Jehovah's hand, that made all the earth drunken. The nations have drunk of her wine, therefore the nations are mad.
8 Ujedanput pade Vavilon i razbi se; ridajte za njim; donesite balsama za rane njegove, ne bi li se iscijelio.
Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed. Wail for her. Take balm for her pain, if so be she may be healed.
9 Lijeèismo Vavilon, ali se ne iscijeli; ostavite ga, i da idemo svaki u svoju zemlju; jer do neba dopire sud njegov i diže se do oblaka.
We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed. Forsake her, and let us go each one into his own country. For her judgment reaches to heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies.
10 Gospod je iznio pravdu našu; hodite, da pripovijedamo na Sionu djelo Gospoda Boga svojega.
Jehovah has brought forth our righteousness. Come, and let us declare in Zion the work of Jehovah our God.
11 Èistite strijele, uzmite štitove; Gospod podiže duh careva Midskih, jer je Vavilonu namislio da ga zatre; jer je osveta Gospodnja, osveta crkve njegove.
Make sharp the arrows. Hold firm the shields. Jehovah has stirred up the spirit of the kings of the Medes, because his purpose is against Babylon, to destroy it. For it is the vengeance of Jehovah, the vengeance of his temple.
12 Na zidovima Vavilonskim podignite zastavu, utvrdite stražu, postavite stražare, namjestite zasjede; jer je Gospod namislio, i uèiniæe što je rekao za stanovnike Vavilonske.
Set up a standard against the walls of Babylon. Make the watch strong. Set the watchmen. Prepare the ambushes. For Jehovah has both purposed and done that which he spoke concerning the inhabitants of Babylon.
13 O ti, što stanuješ kraj vode velike i imaš mnogo blaga! doðe kraj tvoj i svršetak lakomstvu tvojemu.
O thou who dwell upon many waters, abundant in treasures, thine end has come, the measure of thy covetousness.
14 Gospod nad vojskama zakle se sobom: napuniæu te ljudima kao skakavcima, i oni æe ti pjevati pjesmu.
Jehovah of hosts has sworn by himself, saying, Surely I will fill thee with men as with the canker-worm, and they shall lift up a shout against thee.
15 On je stvorio zemlju silom svojom, utvrdio vasiljenu mudrošæu svojom, i razumom svojim razapeo nebesa.
He has made the earth by his power. He has established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding he has stretched out the heavens.
16 Kad pusti glas svoj, buèe vode na nebesima, podiže paru s krajeva zemaljskih, i pušta munje s daždem, i izvodi vjetar iz staja njegovijeh.
When he utters his voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens, and he causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth. He makes lightnings for the rain, and brings forth the wind out of his treasuries.
17 Svaki èovjek posta bezuman od znanja, svaki se zlatar osramoti likom rezanijem; jer su laž likovi njegovi liveni i nema duha u njima.
Every man has become brutish, without knowledge. Every goldsmith is put to shame by his image, for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
18 Taština su, djelo prijevarno; kad ih pohodim poginuæe.
They are vanity, a work of delusion. In the time of their visitation they shall perish.
19 Nije taki dio Jakovljev; jer je on tvorac svemu i on je dio našljedstva njegova; ime mu je Gospod nad vojskama.
The portion of Jacob is not like these, for he is the former of all things, and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance. Jehovah of hosts is his name.
20 Ti si mi bio malj, oružje ubojno, i tobom satrh narode i tobom rasuh carstva.
Thou are my battle-axe and weapons of war. And with thee I will break in pieces the nations, and with thee I will destroy kingdoms,
21 I tobom satrh konja i jahaèa njegova; i tobom satrh kola i koji sjeðahu na njima.
and with thee I will break in pieces the horse and his rider,
22 I tobom satrh èovjeka i ženu, i satrh tobom starca i dijete, i satrh tobom momka i djevojku.
and with thee I will break in pieces the chariot and him who rides in it, and with thee I will break in pieces man and woman, and with thee I will break in pieces the old man and the youth, and with thee I will break in pieces the young man and the virgin,
23 I tobom satrh pastira i stado njegovo, i tobom satrh oraèa i volove njegove ujarmljene, i satrh tobom knezove i vlastelje.
and with thee I will break in pieces the shepherd and his flock, and with thee I will break in pieces the husbandman and his yoke of oxen, and with thee I will break in pieces governors and deputies.
24 I platiæu Vavilonu i svijem stanovnicima Haldejskim za sve zlo koje uèiniše Sionu, na vaše oèi, govori Gospod.
And I will render to Babylon and to all the inhabitants of Chaldea all their evil that they have done in Zion in your sight, says Jehovah.
25 Evo mene na tebe, goro, koja zatireš, govori Gospod, koja zatireš svu zemlju, i zamahnuæu rukom svojom na te i svaliæu te sa stijena, i naèiniæu od tebe goru izgorjelu.
Behold, I am against thee, O destroying mountain, says Jehovah, which destroys all the earth. And I will stretch out my hand upon thee, and roll thee down from the rocks, and will make thee a burnt mountain.
26 I neæe uzeti od tebe kamena za ugao ni kamena za temelj, jer æeš biti pustoš vjeèna, govori Gospod.
And they shall not take from thee a stone for a corner, nor a stone for foundations, but thou shall be desolate forever, says Jehovah.
27 Podignite zastavu u zemlji, zatrubite u trube meðu narodima, pripravite narode na nj, sazovite na nj carstvo Araratsko, Minijsko i Ashanansko; postavite vojvodu suprot njemu, dovedite konje kao skakavce bodljikaste.
Set ye up a standard in the land. Blow the trumpet among the nations. Prepare the nations against her. Call together against her the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashkenaz. Appoint a marshal against her. Cause the horses to come up as the rough canker-worm.
28 Pripravite narode suprot njemu, careve Midske i vojvode njihove i sve vlastele njihove i svu zemlju države njihove.
Prepare against her the nations, the kings of the Medes, the governors of it, and all the deputies of it, and all the land of their dominion.
29 I zemlja æe se zatresti i uzmuèiti, jer æe se misao Gospodnja izvršiti na Vavilonu da obrati zemlju Vavilonsku u pustinju da niko ne živi u njoj.
And the land trembles and is in pain, for the purposes of Jehovah against Babylon stand, to make the land of Babylon a desolation, without inhabitant.
30 Prestaše vojevati junaci Vavilonski, stoje u gradu, nesta sile njihove, postaše kao žene, izgorješe stanovi njihovi, prijevornice njihove polomiše se.
The mighty men of Babylon have ceased fighting; they remain in their strongholds. Their might has failed. They have become as women. Her dwelling-places are set on fire. Her bars are broken.
31 Glasnik æe sretati glasnika, i poslanik æe sretati poslanika da jave caru Vavilonskom da mu je uzet grad sa svijeh krajeva,
One post shall run to meet another, and one messenger to met another, to show the king of Babylon that his city is taken on every quarter.
32 I da se brodovi uzeše i jezera izgorješe ognjem i vojnici se prepali.
And the passages are seized, and the reeds they have burned with fire, and the men of war are frightened.
33 Jer ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama Bog Izrailjev: kæi je Vavilonska kao gumno; vrijeme je da se nabije, još malo, pa æe doæi vrijeme da se požnje.
For thus says Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: The daughter of Babylon is like a threshing-floor at the time when it is trodden. Yet a little while, and the time of harvest shall come for her.
34 Izjede me i potr me Navuhodonosor car Vavilonski, naèini od mene nepotreban sud, proždrije me kao zmaj, napuni trbuh svoj milinama mojim, i otjera me.
Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon has devoured me. He has crushed me. He has made me an empty vessel. He has, like a monster, swallowed me up. He has filled his stomach with my delicacies. He has cast me out.
35 Nepravda koja se èini meni i mojemu tijelu neka doðe na Vavilon, reæi æe stanovnica Sionska, i krv moja na stanovnike Haldejske, govoriæe Jerusalim.
The violence done to me and to my flesh be upon Babylon, the inhabitant of Zion shall say. And, My blood be upon the inhabitants of Chaldea, Jerusalem shall say.
36 Zato ovako veli Gospod: evo, ja æu raspraviti parbu tvoju i osvetiæu te; i osušiæu more njegovo, i izvore æu njegove osušiti.
Therefore thus says Jehovah: Behold, I will plead thy cause, and take vengeance for thee. And I will dry up her sea, and make her fountain dry.
37 I Vavilon æe postati gomila, stan zmajevski, èudo i potsmijeh, da niko neæe živjeti u njemu.
And Babylon shall become heaps, a dwelling-place for jackals, an astonishment, and a hissing, without inhabitant.
38 Rikaæe svi kao lavovi i viti kao laviæi.
They shall roar together like young lions. They shall growl as lions' whelps.
39 Kad se ugriju, iznijeæu im da piju, i opojiæu ih da se razvesele i zaspe vjeènijem snom, da se ne probude, govori Gospod.
When they are heated, I will make their feast. And I will make them drunken, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, says Jehovah.
40 Svešæu ih na zaklanje kao jaganjce, kao ovnove s jarcima.
I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with he-goats.
41 Kako se predobi Sisah i uze se hvala sve zemlje? kako Vavilon posta èudo meðu narodima?
How Sheshach is taken, and the praise of the whole earth seized! How Babylon has become a desolation among the nations!
42 More usta na Vavilon, pokri ga mnoštvo vala njegovijeh.
The sea has come up upon Babylon. She is covered with the multitude of the waves thereof.
43 Gradovi njegovi postaše pustoš, zemlja sasušena i pusta, zemlja gdje niko ne živi, niti prolazi kroz nju sin èovjeèji.
Her cities have become a desolation, a dry land, and a desert, a land in which no man dwells, nor does any son of man pass thereby.
44 I pohodiæu Vila u Vavilonu i izvuæi æu iz usta njegovijeh što je proždro, i neæe se više stjecati k njemu narodi, i zid æe Vavilonski pasti.
And I will execute judgment upon Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he has swallowed up. And the nations shall not flow any more to him. Yea, the wall of Babylon shall fall.
45 Izidi iz njega, narode moj, i izbavite svaki svoju dušu od žestokoga gnjeva Gospodnjega.
My people, go ye out of the midst of her, and save yourselves each man from the fierce anger of Jehovah.
46 Nemojte da odmekne srce vaše i da se uplašite od glasa koji æe se èuti u zemlji; a doæi æe glas jedne godine, a poslije njega drugi glas druge godine, i nasilje æe biti u zemlji, i gospodar æe ustati na gospodara.
And let not your heart faint. Neither fear ye for the news that shall be heard in the land. For news shall come one year, and after that in another year, news, and violence in the land, ruler against ruler.
47 Zato evo idu dani kad æu pohoditi rezane likove Vavilonske, i sva æe se zemlja njegova posramiti, i svi æe pobijeni njegovi pasti usred njega.
Therefore, behold, the days come, that I will execute judgment upon the graven images of Babylon. And her whole land shall be confounded, and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her.
48 Nebo i zemlja i sve što je u njima pjevaæe nad Vavilonom, jer æe doæi na nj sa sjevera zatiraè, govori Gospod.
Then the heavens and the earth, and all that is therein, shall sing for joy over Babylon. For the destroyers shall come to her from the north, says Jehovah.
49 I kao što je Vavilon uèinio da padnu pobijeni Izrailjevi, tako æe pasti u Vavilonu pobijeni sve zemlje.
As Babylon has caused the slain of Israel to fall, so at Babylon shall fall the slain of all the land.
50 Koji utekoste od maèa, idite, ne stojte; pominjite Gospoda izdaleka, i Jerusalim neka vam je u srcu.
Ye who have escaped the sword, go ye; do not stand still. Remember Jehovah from afar, and let Jerusalem come into your mind.
51 Posramismo se, što èusmo rug, stid popade lice naše, što tuðini uðoše u svetinju doma Gospodnjega.
We are confounded, because we have heard reproach. Confusion has covered our faces. For strangers have come into the sanctuaries of Jehovah's house.
52 Zato, gle, idu dani, govori Gospod, kad æu pohoditi rezane likove njegove, i po svoj zemlji njegovoj jeèaæe ranjenici.
Therefore, behold, the days come, says Jehovah, that I will execute judgment upon her graven images, and through all her land the wounded shall groan.
53 Da se Vavilon i na nebo popne, i na visini da utvrdi silu svoju, doæi æe od mene na nj zatiraèi, govori Gospod.
Though Babylon should mount up to heaven, and though she should fortify the height of her strength, yet from me destroyers shall come to her, says Jehovah.
54 Èuje se velika vika iz Vavilona, i velik polom iz zemlje Haldejske.
The sound of a cry from Babylon, and of great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans!
55 Jer Gospod zatire Vavilon, i ukida u njemu veliku vrevu; i vali æe njihovi buèati kao velika voda, vika æe se njihova razlijegati.
For Jehovah lays Babylon waste, and destroys the great voice out of her, and their waves roar like many waters; the noise of their voice is uttered.
56 Jer doðe na nj, na Vavilon, zatiraè, junaci se njegovi zarobiše, lukovi se njihovi potrše; jer je Gospod Bog koji plaæa, doista æe platiti.
For the destroyer has come upon her, even upon Babylon, and her mighty men are taken. Their bows are broken in pieces. For Jehovah is a God of recompenses; he will surely requite.
57 Opojiæu knezove njegove i mudarce njegove, vojvode njegove i vlastelje njegove i junake njegove, da æe zaspati vjeènijem snom i neæe se probuditi, govori car kojemu je ime Gospod nad vojskama.
And I will make drunk her rulers and her wise men, her governors and her deputies, and her mighty men. And they shall sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, says the King, whose name is Jehovah of hosts.
58 Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: široki zidovi Vavilonski sasvijem æe se raskopati, i visoka vrata njegova ognjem æe se spaliti, te æe ljudi biti uzalud radili, i narodi se trudili za oganj.
Thus says Jehovah of hosts: The broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly overthrown, and her high gates shall be burned with fire. And the peoples shall labor for vanity, and the nations for the fire, and they shall be weary.
59 Rijeè što zapovjedi prorok Jeremija Seraji sinu Nirije sina Masijina, kad poðe od Sedekije cara Judina u Vavilon èetvrte godine carovanja njegova; a Seraja bješe glavni posteljnik.
The word which Jeremiah the prophet commanded Seraiah the son of Neriah, the son of Mahseiah, when he went with Zedekiah the king of Judah to Babylon in the fourth year of his reign. Now Seraiah was chief chamberlain.
60 A Jeremija napisa u jednu knjigu sve zlo koje šæaše doæi na Vavilon, sve ove rijeèi što su napisane za Vavilon.
And Jeremiah wrote in a book all the evil that would come upon Babylon, even all these words that are written concerning Babylon.
61 I reèe Jeremija Seraji: kad doðeš u Vavilon, tada gledaj i proèitaj sve ove rijeèi;
And Jeremiah said to Seraiah, When thou come to Babylon, then see that thou read all these words.
62 I reci: Gospode, ti si govorio za ovo mjesto da æeš ga zatrti da niko ne živi u njemu, ni èovjek ni živinèe, nego da je pustoš dovijeka.
And say, O Jehovah, thou have spoken concerning this place, to cut it off, that none shall dwell therein, neither man nor beast, but that it shall be desolate forever.
63 A kad proèitaš ovu knjigu, veži kamen za nju, i baci je u Efrat.
And it shall be, when thou have made an end of reading this book, that thou shall bind a stone to it, and cast it into the midst of the Euphrates.
64 I reci: tako æe potonuti Vavilon i neæe se podignuti oda zla koje æu pustiti na nj, i oni æe iznemoæi. Dovde su rijeèi Jeremijine.
And thou shall say, Thus Babylon shall sink, and shall not rise again because of the evil that I will bring upon her, and they shall be weary. Thus far are the words of Jeremiah.
