Mihej 6

1 Slušajte šta govori Gospod: ustani, sudi se s gorama, i neka èuju humovi glas tvoj.

Listen now to what the LORD says: “Arise, plead your case before the mountains, and let the hills hear what you have to say.

2 Slušajte, gore i tvrdi temelji zemaljski, parbu Gospodnju, jer Gospod ima parbu s narodom svojim, i s Izrailjem se sudi.

Hear, you mountains, the LORD’s indictment, and you enduring foundations of the earth; for the LORD has a case against his people, and he will contend 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 burdened 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 out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage. I sent before you Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.

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, remember now what Balak king of Moab devised, and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him from Shittim to Gilgal, that you may know the righteous acts 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?

How shall I come before the LORD, and bow myself before the exalted God? Shall 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 tens of thousands of rivers of oil? Shall I give my firstborn for my disobedience? 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?

He has shown you, O man, what is good. What does the LORD require of you, but to act justly, to 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.

The LORD’s voice calls to the city— and wisdom fears your name— “Listen to the rod, and he who appointed it.

10 Nije li jošte u kuæi bezbožnikovoj blago nepravo? i efa krnja, gadna?

Are there yet treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and a short ephah that is accursed?

11 Hoæe li mi biti èist u koga su mjerila lažna i u tobocu prijevarno kamenje?

Shall I tolerate dishonest scales, and a bag of deceitful weights?

12 Jer su bogatuni njegovi puni nepravde, i stanovnici govore laž, i u ustima im je jezik prijevaran.

Her rich men are full of violence, her inhabitants speak lies, and their tongue is deceitful in their speech.

13 Zato æu te i ja biti da oboliš, pustošiæu te za grijehe tvoje.

Therefore I also have struck you with a grievous wound. I have made you desolate 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 shall eat, but not be satisfied. Your hunger will be within you. You will store up, but not save, and that which you save I will give up 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 won’t reap. You will tread the olives, but won’t anoint yourself with oil; and crush grapes, but won’t drink the 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 the statutes of Omri are kept, and all the works of Ahab’s house. You walk in their counsels, that I may make you a ruin, and your inhabitants a hissing. You will bear the reproach of my people.”
