Jeremiah 51
1 Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will raise up against Babylon, and against them that dwell in the midst of them that rise against me, a destroying wind;
Ovako govori Gospod: evo, ja æu podignuti na Vavilon i na one koji žive usred onijeh koji ustaju na me vjetar koji mori.
2 And will send to Babylon fanners, that shall fan her, and shall empty her land: for in the day of trouble they shall be against her on all sides.
Poslaæu na Vavilon vijaèe koji æe ga razvijati i zemlju njegovu isprazniti, jer æe ga opkoliti sa svijeh strana u dan nevolje njegove.
3 Against [him that] bendeth let the archer bend his bow, and against [him that] lifteth himself up in his coat of mail: and spare ye not her young men; destroy ye utterly all her host.
Strijelac neka nateže luk na strijelca i na onoga koji se ponosi svojim oklopom; i ne žalite mladiæa njegovijeh, potrite mu svu vojsku,
4 Thus the slain shall fall in the land of the Chaldeans, and [they that are] thrust through in her streets.
Neka padnu pobijeni u zemlji Haldejskoj i izbodeni na ulicama njegovijem.
5 For Israel [hath] not [been] forsaken, nor Judah by his God, by the LORD of hosts; though their land was filled with sin against the Holy One of Israel.
Jer nije ostavio Izrailja i Jude Bog njihov, Gospod nad vojskama, ako i jest zemlja njihova puna krivice svecu Izrailjevu.
6 Flee from the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul: be not cut off in her iniquity; for this [is] the time of the LORD'S vengeance; he will render to her a recompense.
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.
7 Babylon [hath been] a golden cup in the LORD'S hand, that made all the earth drunken: the nations have drank of her wine; therefore the nations are mad.
Vavilon bijaše zlatna èaša u ruci Gospodnjoj, kojom opoji svu zemlju; vina njegova piše narodi, zato poludješe narodi.
8 Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed: howl for her; take balm for her pain, it may be she may be healed.
Ujedanput pade Vavilon i razbi se; ridajte za njim; donesite balsama za rane njegove, ne bi li se iscijelio.
9 We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her, and let us go every one into his own country: for her judgment reacheth to heaven, and is lifted [even] to the skies.
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.
10 The LORD hath brought forth our righteousness: come, and let us declare in Zion the work of the LORD our God.
Gospod je iznio pravdu našu; hodite, da pripovijedamo na Sionu djelo Gospoda Boga svojega.
11 Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the LORD hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his purpose [is] against Babylon, to destroy it; because it [is] the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.
Èistite strijele, uzmite štitove; Gospod podiže duh careva Midskih, jer je Vavilonu namislio da ga zatre; jer je osveta Gospodnja, osveta crkve njegove.
12 Set up the standard upon the walls of Babylon, make the watch strong, set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for the LORD hath both devised and done that which he spoke against the inhabitants of Babylon.
Na zidovima Vavilonskim podignite zastavu, utvrdite stražu, postavite stražare, namjestite zasjede; jer je Gospod namislio, i uèiniæe što je rekao za stanovnike Vavilonske.
13 O thou that dwellest upon many waters, abundant in treasures, thy end is come, [and] the measure of thy covetousness.
O ti, što stanuješ kraj vode velike i imaš mnogo blaga! doðe kraj tvoj i svršetak lakomstvu tvojemu.
14 The LORD of hosts hath sworn by himself, [saying], Surely I will fill thee with men, as with caterpillars; and they shall raise a shout against thee.
Gospod nad vojskama zakle se sobom: napuniæu te ljudima kao skakavcima, i oni æe ti pjevati pjesmu.
15 He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heaven by his understanding.
On je stvorio zemlju silom svojom, utvrdio vasiljenu mudrošæu svojom, i razumom svojim razapeo nebesa.
16 When he uttereth [his] voice, [there is] a multitude of waters in the heavens; and he causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth: he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.
Kad pusti glas svoj, buèe vode na nebesima, podiže paru s krajeva zemaljskih, i pušta munje s daždem, i izvodi vjetar iz staja njegovijeh.
17 Every man is brutish by [his] knowledge; every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image [is] falsehood, and [there is] no breath in them.
Svaki èovjek posta bezuman od znanja, svaki se zlatar osramoti likom rezanijem; jer su laž likovi njegovi liveni i nema duha u njima.
18 They [are] vanity, the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
Taština su, djelo prijevarno; kad ih pohodim poginuæe.
19 The portion of Jacob [is] not like them; for he [is] the former of all things: and [Israel is] the rod of his inheritance: the LORD of hosts [is] his name.
Nije taki dio Jakovljev; jer je on tvorac svemu i on je dio našljedstva njegova; ime mu je Gospod nad vojskama.
20 Thou [art] my battle-ax [and] weapons of war: for with thee will I break in pieces the nations, and with thee will I destroy kingdoms;
Ti si mi bio malj, oružje ubojno, i tobom satrh narode i tobom rasuh carstva.
21 And with thee will I break in pieces the horse and his rider; and with thee will I break in pieces the chariot and its rider;
I tobom satrh konja i jahaèa njegova; i tobom satrh kola i koji sjeðahu na njima.
22 With thee also will I break in pieces man and woman; and with thee will I break in pieces old and young; and with thee will I break in pieces the young man and the maid;
I tobom satrh èovjeka i ženu, i satrh tobom starca i dijete, i satrh tobom momka i djevojku.
23 I will also break in pieces with thee the shepherd and his flock; and with thee will I break in pieces the husbandman and his yoke of oxen; and with thee will I break in pieces captains and rulers.
I tobom satrh pastira i stado njegovo, i tobom satrh oraèa i volove njegove ujarmljene, i satrh tobom knezove i vlastelje.
24 And I will render to Babylon and to all the inhabitants of Chaldea all their evil that they have done in Zion in your sight, saith the LORD.
I platiæu Vavilonu i svijem stanovnicima Haldejskim za sve zlo koje uèiniše Sionu, na vaše oèi, govori Gospod.
25 Behold, I [am] against thee, O destroying mountain, saith the LORD, which destroyest all the earth: and I will stretch out my hand upon thee, and roll thee down from the rocks, and will make thee a burnt mountain.
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.
26 And they shall not take of thee a stone for a corner, nor a stone for foundations; but thou shalt be desolate for ever, saith the LORD.
I neæe uzeti od tebe kamena za ugao ni kamena za temelj, jer æeš biti pustoš vjeèna, govori Gospod.
27 Set ye up a standard in the land, blow the trumpet among the nations, prepare the nations against her, call together against her the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashchenaz; appoint a captain against her; cause the horses to come up as the rough caterpillars.
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.
28 Prepare against her the nations with the kings of Media, her captains, and all her rulers, and all the land of his dominion.
Pripravite narode suprot njemu, careve Midske i vojvode njihove i sve vlastele njihove i svu zemlju države njihove.
29 And the land shall tremble and sorrow: for every purpose of the LORD shall be performed against Babylon, to make the land of Babylon a desolation without an inhabitant.
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.
30 The mighty men of Babylon have forborne to fight, they have remained in [their] holds: their might hath failed; they became as women: they have burned her dwelling-places; her bars are broken.
Prestaše vojevati junaci Vavilonski, stoje u gradu, nesta sile njihove, postaše kao žene, izgorješe stanovi njihovi, prijevornice njihove polomiše se.
31 One post shall run to meet another, and one messenger to meet another, to show the king of Babylon that his city is taken at [one] end,
Glasnik æe sretati glasnika, i poslanik æe sretati poslanika da jave caru Vavilonskom da mu je uzet grad sa svijeh krajeva,
32 And that the passages are stopped, and the reeds they have burned with fire, and the men of war are affrighted.
I da se brodovi uzeše i jezera izgorješe ognjem i vojnici se prepali.
33 For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; The daughter of Babylon [is] like a threshing-floor, [it is] time to thresh her: yet a little while, and the time of her harvest shall come.
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.
34 Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon hath devoured me, he hath crushed me, he hath made me an empty vessel, he hath swallowed me up like a dragon, he hath filled his belly with my delicates, he hath cast me out.
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.
35 The violence done to me and to my flesh [be] upon Babylon, shall the inhabitant of Zion say; and my blood upon the inhabitants of Chaldea, shall Jerusalem say.
Nepravda koja se èini meni i mojemu tijelu neka doðe na Vavilon, reæi æe stanovnica Sionska, i krv moja na stanovnike Haldejske, govoriæe Jerusalim.
36 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will plead thy cause, and take vengeance for thee; and I will dry up her sea, and make her springs dry.
Zato ovako veli Gospod: evo, ja æu raspraviti parbu tvoju i osvetiæu te; i osušiæu more njegovo, i izvore æu njegove osušiti.
37 And Babylon shall become heaps, a dwelling-place for dragons, an astonishment, and a hissing, without an inhabitant.
I Vavilon æe postati gomila, stan zmajevski, èudo i potsmijeh, da niko neæe živjeti u njemu.
38 They shall roar together like lions: they shall yell as lions' whelps.
Rikaæe svi kao lavovi i viti kao laviæi.
39 In their heat I will make their feasts, and I will make them drunken, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the LORD.
Kad se ugriju, iznijeæu im da piju, i opojiæu ih da se razvesele i zaspe vjeènijem snom, da se ne probude, govori Gospod.
40 I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with he-goats.
Svešæu ih na zaklanje kao jaganjce, kao ovnove s jarcima.
41 How is Sheshach taken! and how is the praise of the whole earth surprised! how is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations!
Kako se predobi Sisah i uze se hvala sve zemlje? kako Vavilon posta èudo meðu narodima?
42 The sea is come up upon Babylon: she is covered with the multitude of its waves.
More usta na Vavilon, pokri ga mnoštvo vala njegovijeh.
43 Her cities are a desolation, a dry land, and a wilderness, a land in which no man dwelleth, neither doth [any] son of man pass by it.
Gradovi njegovi postaše pustoš, zemlja sasušena i pusta, zemlja gdje niko ne živi, niti prolazi kroz nju sin èovjeèji.
44 And I will punish Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he hath swallowed: and the nations shall not flow together any more to him: even the wall of Babylon shall fall.
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.
45 My people, depart from the midst of her, and deliver ye every man his soul from the fierce anger of the LORD.
Izidi iz njega, narode moj, i izbavite svaki svoju dušu od žestokoga gnjeva Gospodnjega.
46 And lest your heart should faint, and ye should fear for the rumor that shall be heard in the land; a rumor shall both come [one] year, and after that in [another] year [shall come] a rumor, and violence in the land, ruler against ruler.
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.
47 Therefore behold, the days come, that I will do judgment upon the graven images of Babylon: and her whole land shall be confounded, and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her.
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.
48 Then the heaven and the earth, and all that [is] in them, shall sing for Babylon: for the spoilers shall come to her from the north, saith the LORD.
Nebo i zemlja i sve što je u njima pjevaæe nad Vavilonom, jer æe doæi na nj sa sjevera zatiraè, govori Gospod.
49 As Babylon [hath caused] the slain of Israel to fall, so at Babylon shall fall the slain of all the earth.
I kao što je Vavilon uèinio da padnu pobijeni Izrailjevi, tako æe pasti u Vavilonu pobijeni sve zemlje.
50 Ye that have escaped the sword, go away, stand not still: remember the LORD afar off, and let Jerusalem come into your mind.
Koji utekoste od maèa, idite, ne stojte; pominjite Gospoda izdaleka, i Jerusalim neka vam je u srcu.
51 We are confounded, because we have heard reproach: shame hath covered our faces: for strangers are come into the sanctuaries of the LORD'S house.
Posramismo se, što èusmo rug, stid popade lice naše, što tuðini uðoše u svetinju doma Gospodnjega.
52 Wherefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will do judgment upon her graven images: and through all her land the wounded shall groan.
Zato, gle, idu dani, govori Gospod, kad æu pohoditi rezane likove njegove, i po svoj zemlji njegovoj jeèaæe ranjenici.
53 Though Babylon should mount up to heaven, and though she should fortify the hight of her strength, [yet] from me shall spoilers come to her, saith the LORD.
Da se Vavilon i na nebo popne, i na visini da utvrdi silu svoju, doæi æe od mene na nj zatiraèi, govori Gospod.
54 A sound of a cry [cometh] from Babylon, and great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans:
Èuje se velika vika iz Vavilona, i velik polom iz zemlje Haldejske.
55 Because the LORD hath laid waste Babylon, and destroyed out of her the great voice; when her waves roar like great waters, a noise of their voice is uttered:
Jer Gospod zatire Vavilon, i ukida u njemu veliku vrevu; i vali æe njihovi buèati kao velika voda, vika æe se njihova razlijegati.
56 Because the spoiler is come upon her, [even] upon Babylon, and her mighty men are taken, every one of their bows is broken: for the Lord GOD of recompenses shall surely requite.
Jer doðe na nj, na Vavilon, zatiraè, junaci se njegovi zarobiše, lukovi se njihovi potrše; jer je Gospod Bog koji plaæa, doista æe platiti.
57 And I will make drunk her princes, and her wise [men], her captains, and her rulers, and her mighty men: and they shall sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the king, whose name [is] the LORD of hosts.
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.
58 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly broken, and her high gates shall be burned with fire; and the people shall labor in vain, and the people in the fire, and they shall be weary.
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.
59 The word which Jeremiah the prophet commanded Seraiah the son of Neriah, the son of Maaseiah, when he went with Zedekiah the king of Judah into Babylon in the fourth year of his reign. And [this] Seraiah [was] a quiet prince.
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.
60 So Jeremiah wrote in a book all the evil that should come upon Babylon, [even] all these words that are written against Babylon.
A Jeremija napisa u jednu knjigu sve zlo koje šæaše doæi na Vavilon, sve ove rijeèi što su napisane za Vavilon.
61 And Jeremiah said to Seraiah, When thou shalt come to Babylon, and shalt see, and shalt read all these words;
I reèe Jeremija Seraji: kad doðeš u Vavilon, tada gledaj i proèitaj sve ove rijeèi;
62 Then shalt thou say, O LORD, thou hast spoken against this place, to cut it off, that none shall remain in it, neither man nor beast, but that it shall be desolate for ever.
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.
63 And it shall be, when thou hast made an end of reading this book, [that] thou shalt bind a stone to it, and cast it into the midst of Euphrates:
A kad proèitaš ovu knjigu, veži kamen za nju, i baci je u Efrat.
64 And thou shalt say, Thus shall Babylon sink, and shall not rise from the evil that I will bring upon her: and they shall be weary. Thus far [are] the words of Jeremiah.
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.
