Mihej 6
1 Slušajte šta govori Gospod: ustani, sudi se s gorama, i neka èuju humovi glas tvoj.
Hear now what the Lord is saying: Arise, present your complaint before the mountains, let the hills hear your voice!
2 Slušajte, gore i tvrdi temelji zemaljski, parbu Gospodnju, jer Gospod ima parbu s narodom svojim, i s Izrailjem se sudi.
Hear, mountains, the Lord’s accusation, listen, foundations of the earth. For the Lord has a case against his people. He has a dispute with Israel.
3 Narode moj, šta sam ti uèinio? i èim sam ti dosadio? Odgovori mi.
“My people, what have I done to you. How have I displeased you? Answer me!
4 Jer te izvedoh iz zemlje Misirske i iskupih iz kuæe ropske i poslah pred tobom Mojsija, Arona i Mariju.
For I brought you up from the land of Egypt, from the land of slavery I redeemed you. I sent Moses, Aaron, and Miriam to lead you.
5 Narode moj, opomeni se što naumi Valak car Moavski i što mu odgovori Valam sin Veorov, od Sitima do Galgala šta bi, da poznaš pravdu Gospodnju.
My people, what did Balak, king of Moab counsel? And how did Balaam, the son of Beor, answer him? Remember now the journey from Shittim to Gilgal, so that you might realize the just deeds of the Lord.”
6 Su èim æu doæi pred Gospoda da se poklonim Bogu višnjemu? hoæu li doæi preda nj sa žrtvama paljenicama? s teocima od godine?
With what should I come before the Lord? Bow myself before the God on high? Should I come before him with burnt-offerings, with calves a year old?
7 Hoæe li Gospodu biti mile tisuæe ovnova? desetine tisuæa potoka ulja? hoæu li dati prvenca svojega za prijestup svoj? plod utrobe svoje za grijeh duše svoje?
Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams, With ten thousand streams of oil? Should I give him my firstborn son for my guilt, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
8 Pokazao ti je, èovjeèe, što je dobro; i šta Gospod ište od tebe osim da èiniš što je pravo i da ljubiš milost i da hodiš smjerno s Bogom svojim?
The Lord has told you what is good, what he demands of you: Only to do justice and love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.
9 Glas Gospodnji vièe gradu, i ko je mudar vidi ime tvoje; slušajte prut i onoga koji ga je odredio.
Listen! The Lord calls to the city! Listen, tribe and assembly of the city!
10 Nije li jošte u kuæi bezbožnikovoj blago nepravo? i efa krnja, gadna?
“Can I forget the hoarded treasures in the houses of the wicked, and the accursed scant measure?
11 Hoæe li mi biti èist u koga su mjerila lažna i u tobocu prijevarno kamenje?
Can I leave her unpunished because of evil scales, and the bag of false weights?
12 Jer su bogatuni njegovi puni nepravde, i stanovnici govore laž, i u ustima im je jezik prijevaran.
Whose rich people are full of violence, her inhabitants liars, whose tongues speak deceit?
13 Zato æu te i ja biti da oboliš, pustošiæu te za grijehe tvoje.
“But I indeed, have begun to punish you, to lay you in ruins because of your sins.
14 Ti æeš jesti, ali se neæeš nasititi, i padanje tvoje biæe usred tebe; i sklanjaæeš, ali neæeš izbaviti, i što izbaviš predaæu maèu.
You will eat but not be satisfied, your stomach empty within you. You will store up but lose everything, because whatever you save I will give to the sword.
15 Ti æeš sijati, ali neæeš žeti; ti æeš cijediti masline, ali se neæeš namazati uljem, i mast, ali neæeš piti vina.
You will sow but not reap. You will tread the olives but have no oil for rubbing, tread grapes but drink no wine!
16 Jer se drže uredbe Amrijeve i sva djela doma Ahavova, i hodite po savjetima njihovijem, da te predam u pogibao, i stanovnike njegove u potsmijeh, i nosiæete sramotu naroda mojega.
“For you have followed the commands of Omri, and all the practices of the house of Ahab. You have acted in accord with their counsels, so I will give you up to ruin, the city’s inhabitants to derision. The nations will treat you with contempt!”
