< Jeremiah 7 >

1 The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
Rijeè koja doðe Jeremiji od Gospoda govoreæi:
2 Stand in the gate of the LORD'S house, and proclaim there this word, and say, Hear the word of the LORD, all [ye of] Judah, that enter in at these gates to worship the LORD.
Stani na vratima doma Gospodnjega, i oglasi ondje ovu rijeè, i reci: èujte rijeè Gospodnju, svi Judejci, koji ulazite na ova vrata da se poklonite Gospodu.
3 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.
Ovako govori Gospod nad vojskama, Bog Izrailjev: popravite svoje putove i djela svoja, pa æu uèiniti da stanujete na ovom mjestu.
4 Trust ye not in lying words, saying, The temple of the LORD, The temple of the LORD, The temple of the LORD, [are] these.
Ne uzdajte se u lažne rijeèi govoreæi: crkva Gospodnja, crkva Gospodnja, crkva Gospodnja ovo je.
5 For if ye thoroughly amend your ways and your doings; if ye thoroughly execute judgment between a man and his neighbor;
Nego doista popravite svoje putove i djela svoja, i sudite pravo izmeðu èovjeka i bližnjega njegova.
6 [If] ye oppress not the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, neither walk after other gods to your hurt:
Inostrancu, siroti i udovici ne èinite krivo, i krvi prave ne proljevajte na ovom mjestu, i ne idite za drugim bogovima na svoje zlo.
7 Then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, for ever and ever.
Tada æu uèiniti da stanujete od vijeka do vijeka na ovom mjestu, u zemlji koju sam dao ocima vašim.
8 Behold, ye trust in lying words, that cannot profit.
Eto, vi se uzdate u rijeèi lažne, koje ne pomažu.
9 Will ye steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense to Baal, and walk after other gods whom ye know not;
Kradete, ubijate i èinite preljubu, kunete se krivo, i kadite Valima, i idete za drugim bogovima, kojih ne znate;
10 And come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, We are delivered to do all these abominations?
Pa onda dohodite i stajete preda mnom u ovom domu, koji se zove mojim imenom, i govorite: izbavismo se, da èinite sve ove gadove.
11 Is this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, even I have seen [it], saith the LORD.
Je li ovaj dom, koji se zove mojim imenom, u vašim oèima peæina hajduèka? Gle, i ja vidim, veli Gospod.
12 But go ye now to my place which [was] in Shiloh, where I set my name at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.
Nego idite sada na moje mjesto, koje je bilo u Silomu, gdje namjestih ime svoje ispoèetka, i vidite što sam mu uèinio za zloæu naroda svojega Izrailja.
13 And now, because ye have done all these works, saith the LORD, and I spoke to you, rising early and speaking, but ye heard not; and I called you, but ye answered not;
Zato sada, što èinite sva ona djela, veli Gospod, i što vam govorim zarana jednako, a vi ne slušate, i kad vas zovem, a vi se ne odzivate,
14 Therefore will I do to [this] house, which is called by my name, in which ye trust, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.
Zato æu uèiniti tomu domu, koji se zove mojim imenom, u koji se vi uzdate, i ovomu mjestu, koje dadoh vama i ocima vašim, kao što sam uèinio Silomu.
15 And I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brethren, [even] the whole seed of Ephraim.
I odbaciæu vas od lica svojega, kao što sam odbacio svu braæu vašu, sve sjeme Jefremovo.
16 Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up cry nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to me: for I will not hear thee.
Ti se dakle ne moli za taj narod, i ne podiži vike ni molbe za njih, i ne govori mi za njih; jer te neæu uslišiti.
17 Seest thou not what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
Zar ne vidiš šta èine po gradovima Judinijem i po ulicama Jerusalimskim?
18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink-offerings to other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.
Sinovi kupe drva, a ocevi lože oganj, i žene mijese tijesto, da peku kolaèe carici nebeskoj, i da ljevaju naljeve drugim bogovima, da bi mene dražili.
19 Do they provoke me to anger? saith the LORD: [do they] not [provoke] themselves to the confusion of their own faces?
Mene li draže? govori Gospod; eda li ne sebe, na sramotu licu svojemu?
20 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, my anger and my fury shall be poured out upon this place, upon man, and upon beast, and upon the trees of the field, and upon the fruit of the ground; and it shall burn, and shall not be quenched.
Zato ovako govori Gospod Gospod: gle, gnjev moj i jarost moja izliæe se na ovo mjesto, na ljude i na stoku i na drveta poljska i na rod zemaljski, i raspaliæe se, i neæe se ugasiti.
21 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Put your burnt-offerings to your sacrifices, and eat flesh.
Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama Bog Izrailjev: žrtve svoje paljenice sastavite sa prinosima svojim, i jedite meso.
22 For I spoke not to your fathers, nor commanded them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt-offerings or sacrifices:
Jer ne govorih ocima vašim, niti im zapovjedih, kad ih izvedoh iz zemlje Misirske, za žrtve paljenice ni za prinose.
23 But this thing I commanded them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people: and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well to you.
Nego im ovo zapovjedih govoreæi: slušajte glas moj i biæu vam Bog i vi æete mi biti narod, i idite svijem putovima koje vam zapovjedih, da bi vam dobro bilo.
24 But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the counsels [and] in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.
Ali ne poslušaše, niti uha svojega prignuše, nego idoše po savjetima i mislima zloga srca svojega, i otidoše natrag a ne naprijed.
25 Since the day that your fathers came forth from the land of Egypt to this day I have even sent to you all my servants the prophets, daily rising early and sending [them]:
Otkad iziðoše oci vaši iz zemlje Misiriske do danas, slah k vama sve sluge svoje proroke svaki dan zarana i bez prestanka.
26 Yet they hearkened not to me, nor inclined their ear, but hardened their neck: they did worse than their fathers.
Ali ne poslušaše me, niti uha svojega prignuše, nego bijahu tvrdovrati i èiniše gore nego oci njihovi.
27 Therefore thou shalt speak all these words to them; but they will not hearken to thee: thou shalt also call to them; but they will not answer thee.
Govoriæeš im sve ove rijeèi, ali te neæe poslušati; i zvaæeš ih, ali ti se neæe odazvati.
28 But thou shalt say to them, This [is] a nation that obeyeth not the voice of the LORD their God, nor receiveth correction: truth hath perished, and is cut off from their mouth.
Zato im reci: ovo je narod koji ne sluša glasa Gospoda Boga svojega, niti prima nauke; propade vjera i nesta je iz usta njihovijeh.
29 Cut off thy hair, [O Jerusalem], and cast [it] away, and take up a lamentation on high places; for the LORD hath rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath.
Ostrizi kosu svoju i baci je, i zaridaj iza glasa na visokim mjestima, jer odbaci Gospod i ostavi rod, na koji se razgnjevi.
30 For the children of Judah have done evil in my sight, saith the LORD: they have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to pollute it.
Jer sinovi Judini uèiniše što je zlo preda mnom, govori Gospod, metnuše gadove svoje u dom koji se zove mojim imenom, da bi ga oskvrnili.
31 And they have built the high places of Tophet, which [is] in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire; which I commanded [them] not, neither came it into my heart.
I sagradiše visine Tofetu, koji je u dolini sina Enomova, da sažižu sinove svoje i kæeri svoje ognjem, što nijesam zapovjedio niti mi je došlo na um.
32 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that it shall no more be called Tophet, nor the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of slaughter: for they shall bury in Tophet, till there shall be no place.
Zato evo, idu dani, veli Gospod, kad se više neæe zvati Tofet ni dolina sina Enomova, nego dolina krvna, i pogrebavaæe se u Tofetu, jer neæe biti mjesta.
33 And the carcasses of this people shall be food for the fowls of heaven, and for the beasts of the earth; and none shall frighten [them] away.
I mrtva æe tjelesa naroda ovoga biti hrana pticama nebeskim i zvijerju zemaljskom, i neæe biti nikoga da ih plaši.
34 Then will I cause to cease from the cities of Judah, and from the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride: for the land shall be desolate.
I uèiniæu, te æe iz gradova Judinijeh i s ulica Jerusalimskih nestati glasa radosna i glasa vesela, glasa ženikova i glasa nevjestina; jer æe zemlja opustjeti.
