Jeremija 37
1 Potom carova Sedekija sin Josijin mjesto Honije sina Joakimova, kojega postavi carem u zemlji Judinoj Navuhodonosor car Vavilonski.
And reign doth king Zedekiah son of Josiah instead of Coniah son of Jehoiakim whom Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon had caused to reign in the land of Judah,
2 Ali ni on ni sluge njegove ni narod zemaljski ne slušahu rijeèi Gospodnjih koje govoraše preko Jeremije proroka.
and he hath not hearkened, he, and his servants, and the people of the land, unto the words of Jehovah, that He spake by the hand of Jeremiah the prophet.
3 I posla car Sedekija Jeuhala sina Selemijina, i Sofoniju sina Masijina sveštenika k Jeremiji proroku, te mu rekoše: pomoli se za nas Gospodu Bogu našemu.
And Zedekiah the king sendeth Jehucal son of Shelemiah, and Zephaniah son of Maaseiah the priest, unto Jeremiah the prophet, saying, 'Pray, we beseech thee, for us unto Jehovah our God.'
4 I Jeremija iðaše meðu narod i još ga ne bjehu metnuli u tamnicu.
And Jeremiah is coming in and going out in the midst of the people, (and they have not put him in the prison-house),
5 I vojska Faraonova izide iz Misira, a Haldejci koji bijahu Jerusalim èuvši glas o njoj otidoše od Jerusalima.
and the force of Pharaoh hath come out of Egypt, and the Chaldeans, who are laying siege against Jerusalem, hear their report, and go up from off Jerusalem.
6 A rijeè Gospodnja doðe Jeremiji proroku govoreæi:
And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah the prophet, saying:
7 Ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: ovako recite caru Judinu, koji vas je poslao k meni da me pitate: evo vojska Faraonova koja poðe vama u pomoæ, vratiæe se u svoju zemlju, u Misir.
'Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, Thus do ye say unto the king of Judah, who is sending you unto Me, to seek Me: Lo, the force of Pharaoh that is coming out to you for help hath turned back to its land, to Egypt,
8 A Haldejci æe opet doæi i opkoliæe taj grad i uzeæe ga i spaliæe ga ognjem.
and the Chaldeans have turned back, and fought against this city, and captured it, and burnt it with fire.
9 Ovako veli Gospod: ne varajte se govoreæi: otiæi æe od nas Haldejci; jer neæe otiæi.
'Thus said Jehovah: Lift not up your souls saying, The Chaldeans surely go from off us, for they do not go;
10 I da pobijete svu vojsku Haldejsku, koja æe se biti s vama, i da ih ostane nekoliko ranjenika, i oni æe ustati iz svojih šatora i spaliti taj grad ognjem.
for though ye had smitten all the force of the Chaldeans who are fighting with you, and there were left of them wounded men — each in his tent — they rise, and have burnt this city with fire.'
11 A kad otide vojska Haldejska od Jerusalima radi vojske Faraonove,
And it hath come to pass, in the going up of the force of the Chaldeans from off Jerusalem, because of the force of Pharaoh,
12 Izide Jeremija iz Jerusalima da bi otišao u zemlju Venijaminovu i uklonio se odande meðu narod.
that Jeremiah goeth out from Jerusalem to go [to] the land of Benjamin, to receive a portion thence in the midst of the people.
13 Ali kad bijaše na vratima Venijaminovijem, ondje bijaše starješina stražarski po imenu Jereja sin Selemije sina Ananijina, te uhvati Jeremiju proroka govoreæi: ti bježiš ka Haldejcima.
And it cometh to pass, he is at the gate of Benjamin, and there [is] a master of the ward — and his name is Irijah son of Shelemiah, son of Hananiah — and he catcheth Jeremiah the prophet, saying, 'Unto the Chaldeans thou art falling.'
14 A Jeremija reèe: nije istina, ne bježim ka Haldejcima. Ali ga ne htje slušati, nego uhvati Jereja Jeremiju i odvede ka knezovima.
And Jeremiah saith, 'Falsehood — I am not falling unto the Chaldeans;' and he hath not hearkened unto him, and Irijah layeth hold on Jeremiah, and bringeth him in unto the heads,
15 A knezovi se razgnjeviše na Jeremiju, i izbiše ga, i metnuše ga u tamnicu u kuæi Jonatana pisara, jer od nje bijahu naèinili tamnicu.
and the heads are wroth against Jeremiah, and have smitten him, and put him in the prison-house — the house of Jonathan the scribe, for it they had made for a prison-house.
16 A kad Jeremija uljeze u jamu, u tamnicu, osta ondje dugo vremena.
When Jeremiah hath entered into the house of the dungeon, and unto the cells, then Jeremiah dwelleth there many days,
17 Potom posla car Sedekija, te ga izvadi, i upita ga u svojoj kuæi nasamo, i reèe mu govoreæi: ima li rijeè od Gospoda? A Jeremija reèe: ima. Još reèe: biæeš predan u ruke caru Vavilonskomu.
and the king Zedekiah sendeth, and taketh him, and the king asketh him in his house in secret, and saith, 'Is there a word from Jehovah?' And Jeremiah saith, 'There is,' and he saith, 'Into the hand of the king of Babylon thou art given.'
18 Potom reèe Jeremija caru Sedekiji: šta sam ti skrivio ili slugama tvojim ili tomu narodu, te me metnuste u tamnicu?
And Jeremiah saith unto the king Zedekiah, 'What have I sinned against thee, and against thy servants, and against this people, that ye have given me unto a prison-house?
19 I gdje su vaši proroci koji vam prorokuju govoreæi: neæe doæi car Vavilonski na vas ni na ovu zemlju?
And where [are] your prophets who prophesied to you, saying, The king of Babylon doth not come in against you, and against this land?
20 Sada dakle poslušaj, care gospodaru moj, pusti preda se molbu moju, nemoj me vraæati u kuæu Jonatana pisara, da ne umrem ondje.
And now, hearken, I pray thee, my lord, O king, let my supplication fall, I pray thee, before thee, and cause me not to return [to] the house of Jonathan the scribe, that I die not there.'
21 Tada zapovjedi car Sedekija da zatvore Jeremiju u trijem od tamnice i da mu daju svaki dan po hljeb s ulice hljebarske, dokle traje hljeba u gradu. Tako sjeðaše Jeremija u trijemu od tamnice.
And the king Zedekiah commandeth, and they commit Jeremiah into the court of the prison, also to give to him a cake of bread daily from the bakers' street, till the consumption of all the bread of the city, and Jeremiah dwelleth in the court of the prison.
