Jeremiah 15

1 Then said the LORD to me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, [yet] my mind [could] not [be] towards this people: cast [them] out of my sight, and let them go forth.

I reèe mi Gospod: da stane Mojsije i Samuilo preda me, ne bi se duša moja obratila k tome narodu; otjeraj ih ispred mene, i neka odlaze.

2 And it shall come to pass, if they say to thee, Whither shall we go forth? then thou shalt tell them, Thus saith the LORD; Such as [are] for death, to death; and such as [are] for the sword, to the sword; and such as [are] for the famine, to the famine; and such as [are] for the captivity, to the captivity.

I ako ti reku: kuda æemo iæi? tada im reci: ovako veli Gospod: ko je za smrt, na smrt; ko je za maè, pod maè; ko za glad, na glad; ko za ropstvo, u ropstvo.

3 And I will appoint over them four kinds, saith the LORD: the sword to slay, and the dogs to tear, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and destroy.

I pustiæu na njih èetvoro, govori Gospod: maè, da ih ubija, i pse, da ih razvlaèe, i ptice nebeske i zvijeri zemaljske, da ih jedu i istrijebe.

4 And I will cause them to be removed into all kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah king of Judah, for [that] which he did in Jerusalem.

I daæu ih da se potucaju po svijem carstvima zemaljskim radi Manasije sina Jezekijina cara Judina za ono što je uèinio u Jerusalimu.

5 For who shall have pity upon thee, O Jerusalem? or who shall bemoan thee? or who shall go aside to ask concerning thy welfare?

Jer ko bi se smilovao na tebe, Jerusalime? ko li bi te požalio? ko li bi došao da zapita kako ti je?

6 Thou hast forsaken me, saith the LORD, thou art gone backward: therefore will I stretch out my hand against thee, and destroy thee; I am weary with repenting.

Ti si me ostavio, govori Gospod, otišao si natrag; zato æu mahnuti rukom svojom na te i pogubiæu te; dosadi mi žaliti.

7 And I will fan them with a fan in the gates of the land; I will bereave [them] of children, I will destroy my people, [since] they return not from their ways.

Zato æu ih izvijati vijaèom na vratima zemaljskim, uèiniæu ih sirotima, potræu narod svoj, jer se ne vraæaju s putova svojih.

8 Their widows are multiplied to me above the sand of the seas: I have brought upon them against the mother of the young men a spoiler at noon-day: I have caused [him] to fall upon it suddenly, and terrors upon the city.

Više æe mi biti udovica njegovijeh nego pijeska morskoga, dovešæu im na majke momaèke zatiraèe u podne, i pustiæu iznenada na njih smetnju i strahotu.

9 She that hath borne seven languisheth: she hath resigned her breath; her sun is gone down while [it was] yet day: she hath been ashamed and confounded: and the residue of them will I deliver to the sword before their enemies, saith the LORD.

Iznemoæi æe koja je rodila sedmoro i ispustiæe dušu, sunce æe joj zaæi još za dana, sramiæe se i stidjeæe se, a ostatak æu njihov dati pod maè pred neprijateljima njihovijem, govori Gospod.

10 Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have neither lent on usury, nor have men lent to me on usury; [yet] every one of them doth curse me.

Teško meni, majko moja, što si me rodila da se sa mnom prepire i da se sa mnom svaða sva zemlja; ne davah u zajam niti mi davaše u zajam, i opet me svi proklinju.

11 The LORD said, Verily it shall be well with thy remnant; verily I will cause the enemy to treat thee [well] in the time of evil and in the time of affliction.

Gospod reèe: doista, ostatku æe tvojemu biti dobro, i braniæu te od neprijatelja, kad budeš u nevolji i u tjeskobi.

12 Shall iron break the northern iron and the steel?

Eda li æe gvožðe slomiti gvožðe sjeverno i mjed?

13 Thy substance and thy treasures will I give to the spoil without price, and [that] for all thy sins, even in all thy borders.

Imanje tvoje i blago tvoje daæu da se razgrabi bez cijene po svijem meðama tvojim, i to za sve grijehe tvoje.

14 And I will make [thee] to pass with thy enemies into a land [which] thou knowest not: for a fire is kindled in my anger, [which] shall burn upon you.

I odvešæu te s neprijateljima tvojim u zemlju koje ne poznaješ, jer se raspalio oganj od gnjeva mojega, i gorjeæe nad vama.

15 O LORD, thou knowest: remember me, and visit me, and avenge me of my persecutors; take me not away in thy long-suffering: know that for thy sake I have suffered rebuke.

Ti znaš, Gospode, opomeni me se i pohodi me i osveti me od onijeh koji me gone; nemoj me zgrabiti dokle se ustežeš od gnjeva; znaj da podnosim rug tebe radi.

16 Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.

Kad se naðoše rijeèi tvoje, pojedoh ih, i rijeè tvoja bi mi radost i veselje srcu mojemu, jer je ime tvoje prizvano na me, Gospode Bože nad vojskama.

17 I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of thy hand: for thou hast filled me with indignation.

Ne sjedim u vijeæu potsmjevaèkom niti se s njima veselim; sjedim sam radi ruke tvoje, jer si me napunio srdnje.

18 Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, [which] refuseth to be healed? wilt thou be altogether to me as a liar, [and as] waters [that] fail?

Zašto bol moj jednako traje? i zašto je rana moja smrtna, te neæe da se iscijeli? Hoæeš li mi biti kao varalica, kao voda nepostojana?

19 Therefore thus saith the LORD, If thou shalt return, then will I bring thee again, [and] thou shalt stand before me: and if thou shalt separate the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth: let them return to thee; but return not thou to them.

Zato ovako veli Gospod: ako se obratiš, ja æu te opet postaviti da stojiš preda mnom, ako odvojiš što je dragocjeno od rðavoga, biæeš kao usta moja; oni neka se obrate k tebi, a ti se ne obraæaj k njima.

20 And I will make thee to this people a fortified brazen wall: and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not prevail against thee: for I [am] with thee to save thee and to deliver thee, saith the LORD.

I uèiniæu da budeš tome narodu kao jak zid mjeden, i udaraæe na te, ali te neæe nadvladati; jer sam ja s tobom da te èuvam i izbavljam, govori Gospod.

21 And I will deliver thee from the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee from the hand of the terrible.

I izbaviæu te iz ruku zlijeh ljudi, i iskupiæu te iz ruku nasilnièkih.
