< 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 sayth the Lord, Beholde, I wil raise vp against Babel, and against the inhabitants that lift vp their heart against me, 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 wil send vnto Babel fanners that shall fanne her, and shall empty her land: for in the day of trouble they shalbe against her on euery side.
3 Strijelac neka nateže luk na strijelca i na onoga koji se ponosi svojim oklopom; i ne žalite mladiæa njegovijeh, potrite mu svu vojsku,
Also to the bender that bendeth his bowe, and to him that lifteth himselfe vp in his brigandine, will I say, Spare not her yong men, but destroy all her hoste.
4 Neka padnu pobijeni u zemlji Haldejskoj i izbodeni na ulicama njegovijem.
Thus the slaine shall fall in the lande of the Caldeans, and they that are thrust through in her streetes.
5 Jer nije ostavio Izrailja i Jude Bog njihov, Gospod nad vojskama, ako i jest zemlja njihova puna krivice svecu Izrailjevu.
For Israel hath bene no widowe, nor Iudah from his God, from the Lord of hostes, though their lande was filled with sinne 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 middes of Babel, and deliuer euery man his soule: be not destroyed in her iniquitie: for this is the time of the Lordes vengeance he will render vnto her a recompence.
7 Vavilon bijaše zlatna èaša u ruci Gospodnjoj, kojom opoji svu zemlju; vina njegova piše narodi, zato poludješe narodi.
Babel hath bene as a golden cuppe in the Lordes hand, that made all the earth drunken: the nations haue drunken of her wine, therefore do the nations rage.
8 Ujedanput pade Vavilon i razbi se; ridajte za njim; donesite balsama za rane njegove, ne bi li se iscijelio.
Babel is suddenly fallen, and destroyed: howle for her, bring balme for her sore, if 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 haue cured Babel, but she could not be healed: forsake her, and let vs go euery one into his owne countrey: for her iudgement is come vp vnto heauen, and is lifted vp to ye cloudes.
10 Gospod je iznio pravdu našu; hodite, da pripovijedamo na Sionu djelo Gospoda Boga svojega.
The Lord hath brought forth our righteousnesse: come and let vs declare in Zion the worke of the Lord 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 bright the arrowes: gather the shieldes: the Lord hath raised vp the spirit of the King of the Medes: for his purpose is against Babel to destroy it, because it is the vengeance of the Lord, and 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 vp the standart vpon the walles of Babel, make the watch strong: set vp the watchmen: prepare the skoutes: for the Lord hath both deuised, and done that which he spake against the inhabitantes of Babel.
13 O ti, što stanuješ kraj vode velike i imaš mnogo blaga! doðe kraj tvoj i svršetak lakomstvu tvojemu.
O thou that dwellest vpon many waters, abundant in treasures, thine ende is come, euen the ende of thy couetousnes.
14 Gospod nad vojskama zakle se sobom: napuniæu te ljudima kao skakavcima, i oni æe ti pjevati pjesmu.
The Lord of hostes hath sworne by him selfe, saying, Surely I will fill thee with men, as with caterpillers, and they shall cry and shoute against thee.
15 On je stvorio zemlju silom svojom, utvrdio vasiljenu mudrošæu svojom, i razumom svojim razapeo nebesa.
He hath made the earth by his power, and established the world by his wisedome, and hath stretched out the heauen by his discretion.
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.
Hee giueth by his voyce the multitude of waters in the heauen, and he causeth the cloudes to ascend from the endes of the earth: he turneth lightnings to raine, and bringeth forth the winde out of his treasures.
17 Svaki èovjek posta bezuman od znanja, svaki se zlatar osramoti likom rezanijem; jer su laž likovi njegovi liveni i nema duha u njima.
Euery man is a beast by his owne knowledge: euery founder is confounded by the grauen image: for his melting is but falsehood, and there is no breath therein.
18 Taština su, djelo prijevarno; kad ih pohodim poginuæe.
They are vanitie, and the worke of errours: 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 Iaakob is not like them: for he is the maker of all things, and Israel is the rodde of his inheritance: the Lord of hostes is his Name.
20 Ti si mi bio malj, oružje ubojno, i tobom satrh narode i tobom rasuh carstva.
Thou art mine hammer, and weapons of warre: for with thee will I breake the nations, and with thee wil I destroy kingdomes,
21 I tobom satrh konja i jahaèa njegova; i tobom satrh kola i koji sjeðahu na njima.
And by thee wil I breake horse and horseman, and by thee will I breake the charet and him that rideth therein.
22 I tobom satrh èovjeka i ženu, i satrh tobom starca i dijete, i satrh tobom momka i djevojku.
By thee also will I breake man and woman, and by thee wil I breake olde and yong, and by thee wil I breake the yong man and the mayde.
23 I tobom satrh pastira i stado njegovo, i tobom satrh oraèa i volove njegove ujarmljene, i satrh tobom knezove i vlastelje.
I wil also breake by thee the shepheard and his flocke, and by thee will I breake the husband man and his yoke of oxen, and by thee will I breake the dukes and princes.
24 I platiæu Vavilonu i svijem stanovnicima Haldejskim za sve zlo koje uèiniše Sionu, na vaše oèi, govori Gospod.
And I will render vnto Babel, and to all the inhabitants of the Caldeans all their euil, that they haue done in Zion, euen in your sight, sayth the Lord.
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.
Beholde, I come vnto thee, O destroying mountaine, sayth the Lord, which destroyest all the earth: and I will stretch out mine hand vpon thee, and rolle thee downe from the rockes, and wil make thee a burnt mountaine.
26 I neæe uzeti od tebe kamena za ugao ni kamena za temelj, jer æeš biti pustoš vjeèna, govori Gospod.
They shall not take of thee a stone for a corner, nor a stone for foundations, but thou shalt be destroyed for euer, sayth the Lord.
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 vp a standard in the lande: blowe the trumpets among the nations: prepare the nations against her: call vp the kingdomes of Ararat, Minni, and Ashchenaz against her: appoynt the prince against her: cause horses to come vp as the rough caterpillers.
28 Pripravite narode suprot njemu, careve Midske i vojvode njihove i sve vlastele njihove i svu zemlju države njihove.
Prepare against her the nations with the Kings of the Medes, the dukes thereof, and the princes thereof, and all the land of his 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 shall tremble and sorow: for the deuise of the Lord shalbe performed against Babel, to make the lande of Babel waste without an inhabitant.
30 Prestaše vojevati junaci Vavilonski, stoje u gradu, nesta sile njihove, postaše kao žene, izgorješe stanovi njihovi, prijevornice njihove polomiše se.
The strong men of Babel haue ceased to fight: they haue remayned in their holdes: their strength hath fayled, and they were like women: they haue burnt her dwelling places, and her barres are broken.
31 Glasnik æe sretati glasnika, i poslanik æe sretati poslanika da jave caru Vavilonskom da mu je uzet grad sa svijeh krajeva,
A post shall runne to meete the post, and a messenger to meete the messenger, to shew the King of Babel, that his citie is taken on a side thereof,
32 I da se brodovi uzeše i jezera izgorješe ognjem i vojnici se prepali.
And that the passages are stopped, and the reedes burnt with fire, and the me of war troubled.
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 sayth the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, the daughter of Babel is like a threshing floore: the time of her threshing is come: yet a litle while, and the time of her haruest shall come.
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.
Nebuchad-nezzar the King of Babel hath deuoured me, and destroyed me: he hath made me an emptie vessel: he swallowed mee vp like a dragon, and filled his belly with my delicates, and hath 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 spoyle of me, and that which was left of me, is brought vnto Babel, shall the inhabitant of Zion say: and my blood vnto the inhabitantes of Caldea, shall Ierusalem 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 sayth the Lord, Beholde, I will maintayne thy cause, and take vengeance for thee, and I will drie vp the sea, and drie vp her springes.
37 I Vavilon æe postati gomila, stan zmajevski, èudo i potsmijeh, da niko neæe živjeti u njemu.
And Babel shall be as heapes, a dwelling place for dragons, an astonishment, and an hissing, without an inhabitant.
38 Rikaæe svi kao lavovi i viti kao laviæi.
They shall rore together like lions, and yell as the lyons whelpes.
39 Kad se ugriju, iznijeæu im da piju, i opojiæu ih da se razvesele i zaspe vjeènijem snom, da se ne probude, govori Gospod.
In their heate I will make them feastes, and I wil make them drunken, that they may reioyce, and sleepe a perpetual sleepe, and not wake, sayth the Lord.
40 Svešæu ih na zaklanje kao jaganjce, kao ovnove s jarcima.
I wil bring them downe like lambes to the slaughter, and like rams and goates.
41 Kako se predobi Sisah i uze se hvala sve zemlje? kako Vavilon posta èudo meðu narodima?
How is Sheshach taken! and howe is the glory of the whole earth taken! how is Babel become an astonishment among the nations!
42 More usta na Vavilon, pokri ga mnoštvo vala njegovijeh.
The sea is come vp vpon Babel: he is couered with the multitude of the waues thereof.
43 Gradovi njegovi postaše pustoš, zemlja sasušena i pusta, zemlja gdje niko ne živi, niti prolazi kroz nju sin èovjeèji.
Her cities are desolate: the land is dry and a wildernes, a land wherein no man dwelleth, neither doth the sonne of man passe 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.
I wil also visite Bel in Babel, and I wil bring out of his mouth, that which he hath swallowed vp, and the nations shall runne no more vnto him, and the wall of Babel shall fall.
45 Izidi iz njega, narode moj, i izbavite svaki svoju dušu od žestokoga gnjeva Gospodnjega.
My people, go out of the middes of her, and deliuer yee euery man his soule from the fierce wrath of the Lord,
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.
Least your heart euen faynt, and ye feare the rumour, that shalbe heard in the land: the rumour shall come this yeere, and after that in the other yeere shall come a rumour, and crueltie in the land, and 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 beholde, the dayes come, that I will visite the images of Babel, and the whole land shalbe confounded, and all her slayne shall fall in the middes 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 heauen and the earth, and all that is therein, shall reioyce for Babel: for the destroyers shall come vnto her from the North, saith the Lord.
49 I kao što je Vavilon uèinio da padnu pobijeni Izrailjevi, tako æe pasti u Vavilonu pobijeni sve zemlje.
As Babel caused the slaine of Israel to fal, so by Babel the slaine of all the earth did fall.
50 Koji utekoste od maèa, idite, ne stojte; pominjite Gospoda izdaleka, i Jerusalim neka vam je u srcu.
Ye that haue escaped the sworde, goe away, stand not still: remember the Lord a farre of, and let Ierusalem come into your minde.
51 Posramismo se, što èusmo rug, stid popade lice naše, što tuðini uðoše u svetinju doma Gospodnjega.
Wee are confounded because wee haue heard reproch: shame hath couered our faces, for straungers are come into the Sanctuaries of the Lordes House.
52 Zato, gle, idu dani, govori Gospod, kad æu pohoditi rezane likove njegove, i po svoj zemlji njegovoj jeèaæe ranjenici.
Wherefore behold, the dayes come, sayth the Lord, that I will visite her grauen images, and through all her land the wounded shall grone.
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 Babel should mount vp to heauen, and though shee should defend her strength on hye, yet from mee shall her destroyers come, sayth the Lord.
54 Èuje se velika vika iz Vavilona, i velik polom iz zemlje Haldejske.
A sound of a cry commeth from Babel, and great destruction from the land of the Caldeans,
55 Jer Gospod zatire Vavilon, i ukida u njemu veliku vrevu; i vali æe njihovi buèati kao velika voda, vika æe se njihova razlijegati.
Because the Lord hath layde Babel waste and destroyed from her the great voyce, and her waues shall roare like great waters, and a sounde was made by their noyse:
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.
Because the destroyer is come vpon her, euen vpon Babel, and her strong men are taken, their bowes are broken: for the Lord God that recompenceth, shall surely recompence.
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 drunke her princes, and her wise men, her dukes, and her nobles, and her strong men: and they shall sleepe a perpetuall sleepe, and not wake, sayth the King, whose Name is the Lord of hostes.
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 saith the Lord of hostes, The thicke wall of Babel shalbe broken, and her hie gates shall be burnt with fire, and the people shall labour in vaine, and the folke in ye fire, for they shalbe 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 worde which Ieremiah the Prophet commanded Sheraiah the sonne of Neriiah, the sonne of Maaseiah, when he went with Zedekiah the King of Iudah into Babel, in the fourth yeere of his reigne: and this Sheraiah was a peaceable prince.
60 A Jeremija napisa u jednu knjigu sve zlo koje šæaše doæi na Vavilon, sve ove rijeèi što su napisane za Vavilon.
So Ieremiah wrote in a booke all the euill that should come vpon Babel: euen al these things, that are written against Babel.
61 I reèe Jeremija Seraji: kad doðeš u Vavilon, tada gledaj i proèitaj sve ove rijeèi;
And Ieremiah sayd to Sheraiah, Whe thou commest vnto Babel, and shalt see, and shalt reade all these wordes,
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.
Then shalt thou say, O Lord, thou hast spoken against this place, to destroy it, that none should remaine in it, neither man nor beast, but that it should be desolate for euer.
63 A kad proèitaš ovu knjigu, veži kamen za nju, i baci je u Efrat.
And when thou hast made an ende of reading this booke, thou shalt binde a stone to it, and cast it in the middes of 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 shalt say, Thus shall Babel be drowned, and shall not rise from the euil, that I will bring vpon her: and they shall be weary. Thus farre are the wordes of Ieremiah.
