< Jeremiah 46 >

1 The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the nations.
Rijeè Gospodnja koja doðe Jeremiji proroku za narode:
2 Of Egypt: concerning the army of Pharaoh Necoh king of Egypt, which was by the river Perath in Carchemish, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon struck in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah.
Za Misirce, za vojsku Faraona Nehaona cara Misirskoga, koja bijaše na reci Efratu kod Harkemisa, i razbi je Navuhodonosor car Vavilonski èetvrte godine Joakima sina Josijina cara Judina.
3 "Prepare the buckler and shield, and draw near to battle.
Pripravite štite i štitiæe, i idite u boj;
4 Harness the horses, and get up, you horsemen, and stand forth with your helmets; furbish the spears, put on the coats of mail.
Prežite konje, i pojašite, konjici; postavite se sa šljemovima; utrite koplja, oblaèite se u oklope.
5 Why have I seen it? They are dismayed and are turned backward; and their mighty ones are beaten down, and have fled in haste, and do not look back: terror is on every side," says the LORD.
Zašto ih vidim gdje se poplašiše, vraæaju se natrag, junaci njihovi polomiše se i bježe bez obzira? Strah je otsvuda, govori Gospod.
6 "Do not let the swift flee away, nor the mighty man escape; in the north by the river Perath have they stumbled and fallen.
Da ne uteèe laki, niti se izbavi jaki; da se na sjeveru na brijegu rijeke Efrata spotaknu i padnu.
7 Who is this who rises up like the Nile, whose waters toss themselves like the rivers?
Ko je to što se diže kao potok, i vode mu se kolebaju kao rijeke?
8 Egypt rises up like the Nile, and his waters toss themselves like the rivers: and he says, 'I will rise up, I will cover the earth; I will destroy cities and its inhabitants.'
Misir se diže kao potok i njegove se vode kolebaju kao rijeke; i veli: idem, pokriæu zemlju, zatræu grad i one koji žive u njemu.
9 Go up, you horses; and rage, you chariots; and let the mighty men go forth: Cush and Put, who handle the shield; and the Ludim, who handle and bend the bow.
Izlazite, konji, bjesnite, kola; i neka izaðu junaci, Husi i Fudi, koji nose štitove, i Ludeji, koji nose i natežu luk.
10 For that day is of the Lord, the LORD of hosts, a day of vengeance, that he may avenge him of his adversaries: and the sword shall devour and be satiate, and shall drink its fill of their blood; for the Lord, the LORD of hosts, has a sacrifice in the north country by the river Perath.
Jer je ovaj dan Gospodu Gospodu nad vojskama dan osvete, da se osveti neprijateljima svojim; maè æe ih proždrijeti i nasitiæe se i opiæe se krvlju njihovom; jer æe biti žrtva Gospoda Gospoda nad vojskama u zemlji sjevernoj na rijeci Efratu.
11 Go up into Gilead, and take balm, virgin daughter of Egypt: in vain do you use many medicines; there is no healing for you.
Izidi u Galad i uzmi balsama, djevojko kæeri Misirska; zaludu su ti mnogi lijekovi, neæeš se izlijeèiti.
12 The nations have heard of your shame, and the earth is full of your cry; for the mighty man has stumbled against the mighty, they are fallen both of them together."
Narodi èuše sramotu tvoju, i vike tvoje puna je zemlja, jer se spotièu junak o junaka, te obojica padaju.
13 The word that the LORD spoke to Jeremiah the prophet, how that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon should come and strike the land of Egypt.
Rijeè koju reèe Gospod Jeremiji proroku o dolasku Navuhodonosora cara Vavilonskoga da potre zemlju Misirsku:
14 "Declare in Egypt, and publish in Migdol, and publish in Memphis and in Tahpanhes: say, 'Stand forth, and prepare; for the sword has devoured around you.'
Javite u Misiru, i oglasite u Migdolu, oglasite i u Nofu i u Tafnesu, i recite: stani i pripravi se, jer maè proždrije što je oko tebe.
15 Why are your strong ones swept away? They did not stand, because the LORD pushed them.
Zašto se povaljaše junaci tvoji? Ne stoje, jer ih Gospod obara.
16 He made many to stumble, yes, they fell one on another: and they said, 'Arise, and let us go again to our own people, and to the land of our birth, from the oppressing sword.'
Èini, te se mnogi spotièu i padaju jedan na drugoga, i govore: ustani da se vratimo k narodu svojemu i na postojbinu svoju ispred maèa nasilnikova.
17 They cried there, 'Pharaoh king of Egypt is but a noise; he has let the appointed time pass by.'"
Vièu ondje: Faraon car Misirski propade, proðe mu rok.
18 "As I live," says the King, "whose name is the LORD of hosts, surely like Tabor among the mountains, and like Carmel by the sea, so shall he come.
Tako da sam ja živ, govori car, kojemu je ime Gospod nad vojskama; kao Tavor meðu gorama i kao Karmil na moru doæi æe.
19 You daughter who dwells in Egypt, furnish yourself to go into captivity; for Memphis shall become a desolation, and shall be burnt up, without inhabitant.
Spremi što ti treba da se seliš, stanovnice, kæeri Misirska; jer æe Nof opustjeti i spaliæe se da neæe niko živjeti u njemu.
20 Egypt is a very beautiful heifer; but a horsefly from the north is coming against her.
Misir je lijepa junica; ali pogibao ide, ide sa sjevera.
21 Also her hired men in the midst of her are like calves of the stall; for they also are turned back, they are fled away together, they did not stand: for the day of their calamity has come on them, the time of their visitation.
I najamnici su njegovi usred njega kao teoci ugojeni, ali se i oni obrnuše i pobjegoše, ne ostaše, jer doðe na njih dan nesreæe njihove, vrijeme pohoðenja njihova.
22 The sound of it shall go like the serpent; for they shall march with an army, and come against her with axes, as wood cutters.
Glas æe njihov iæi kao zmijinji, jer oni idu s vojskom i doæi æe sa sjekirama na nj kao oni koji sijeku drva.
23 They shall cut down her forest, says the LORD, though it can't be searched; because they are more than the locusts, and are innumerable.
I oni æe posjeæi šumu njegovu, govori Gospod, ako joj i nema mjere, jer ih je više nego skakavaca i nema im broja.
24 The daughter of Egypt shall be disappointed; she shall be delivered into the hand of the people of the north."
Posrami se kæi Misirska, predana je u ruke narodu sjevernom.
25 "The LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, says: 'Look, I will punish Amon of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with her gods, and her kings; even Pharaoh, and those who trust in him:
Govori Gospod nad vojskama Bog Izrailjev: evo, ja æu pohoditi ljudstvo u Noji, i Faraona i Misir i bogove njegove i careve njegove, Faraona i sve koji se uzdaju u nj.
26 and I will deliver them into the hand of those who seek their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his servants; and afterwards it shall be inhabited, as in the days of old,' says the LORD.
I daæu ih u ruke onima koji traže dušu njihovu, u ruke Navuhodonosoru caru Vavilonskom i u ruke slugama njegovijem; a poslije æe biti naseljen kao prije, govori Gospod.
27 'But do not be afraid, Jacob my servant, neither be dismayed, Israel: for, look, I will save you from afar, and your descendants from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be quiet and at ease, and none shall make him afraid.
A ti se ne boj, slugo moj Jakove, i ne plaši se, Izrailju, jer evo ja æu te izbaviti iz daljne zemlje i sjeme tvoje iz zemlje ropstva njegova; i Jakov æe se vratiti i poèivaæe, i biæe miran i niko ga neæe plašiti.
28 Do not be afraid, O Jacob my servant,' says the LORD; 'for I am with you: for I will make a full end of all the nations where I have driven you; but I will not make a full end of you, but I will correct you in measure, and will in no way leave you unpunished.'"
Ti se ne boj, slugo moj Jakove, govori Gospod, jer sam ja s tobom; jer æu uèiniti kraj svijem narodima, u koje te prognah, ali tebi neæu uèiniti kraja, nego æu te pokarati s mjerom, a neæu te ostaviti sasvijem bez kara.
