Jeremiah 34
1 The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, with all his army, all the kingdoms of the earth that were under his dominion, and all the peoples, were fighting against Jerusalem and against all its cities, saying:
Rijeè koja doðe Jeremiji od Gospoda, kad Navuhodonosor car Vavilonski i sva vojska njegova, i sva carstva zemaljska koja bijahu pod njegovom vlašæu, i svi narodi vojevahu na Jerusalim i na sve gradove njegove, i reèe:
2 “The LORD, the God of Israel, says, ‘Go, and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah, and tell him, the LORD says, “Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon and he will burn it with fire.
Ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: idi i kaži Sedekiji caru Judinu i reci mu: ovako veli Gospod: evo, ja æu predati taj grad u ruke caru Vavilonskom, i on æe ga spaliti ognjem.
3 You will not escape out of his hand, but will surely be taken and delivered into his hand. Your eyes will see the eyes of the king of Babylon, and he will speak with you mouth to mouth. You will go to Babylon.”’
A ti neæeš uteæi iz njegove ruke, nego æeš biti uhvaæen i predan u njegove ruke, i oèi æe se tvoje vidjeti s oèima cara Vavilonskoga i njegova æe usta govoriti s tvojim ustima, i otiæi æeš u Vavilon.
4 “Yet hear the LORD’s word, O Zedekiah king of Judah. The LORD says concerning you, ‘You will not die by the sword.
Ali èuj rijeè Gospodnju, Sedekija care Judin; ovako veli Gospod za te: neæeš poginuti od maèa.
5 You will die in peace; and with the burnings of your fathers, the former kings who were before you, so they will make a burning for you. They will lament you, saying, “Ah Lord!” for I have spoken the word,’ says the LORD.”
Nego æeš umrijeti na miru, i kao što pališe ocima tvojima, preðašnjim carevima, koji su bili prije tebe, tako æe paliti i tebi, i naricaæe za tobom: jaoh gospodaru! jer ja rekoh ovo, govori Gospod.
6 Then Jeremiah the prophet spoke all these words to Zedekiah king of Judah in Jerusalem,
I kaza Jeremija prorok Sedekiji caru Judinu sve ove rijeèi u Jerusalimu.
7 when the king of Babylon’s army was fighting against Jerusalem and against all the cities of Judah that were left, against Lachish and against Azekah; for these alone remained of the cities of Judah as fortified cities.
A vojska cara Vavilonskoga udaraše na Jerusalim i na sve ostale gradove Judine, na Lahis i Aziku, jer ti bjehu ostali tvrdi gradovi izmeðu gradova Judinijeh.
8 The word came to Jeremiah from the LORD, after King Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people who were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty to them,
Rijeè koja doðe Jeremiji od Gospoda kad car Sedekija uèini zavjet sa svijem narodom koji bješe u Jerusalimu da im proglasi slobodu,
9 that every man should let his male servant, and every man his female servant, who is a Hebrew or a Hebrewess, go free, that no one should make bondservants of them, of a Jew his brother.
Da svaki otpusti slobodna roba svojega i robinju svoju, Jevrejina i Jevrejku, da ni u koga ne bude rob Judejac brat njegov.
10 All the princes and all the people obeyed who had entered into the covenant, that everyone should let his male servant and everyone his female servant go free, that no one should make bondservants of them any more. They obeyed and let them go,
I poslušaše svi knezovi i sav narod, koji prista na zavjet, da svaki otpusti slobodna roba svojega i robinju svoju, da im ne budu više robovi, poslušaše i otpustiše.
11 but afterwards they turned, and caused the servants and the handmaids whom they had let go free to return, and brought them into subjection for servants and for handmaids.
A poslije opet staše uzimati robove i robinje, koje bijahu otpustili na volju, i nagoniše ih da im budu robovi i robinje.
12 Therefore the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
I doðe rijeè Gospodnja Jeremiji od Gospoda govoreæi:
13 “The LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying:
Ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: ja uèinih zavjet s ocima vašim kad vas izvedoh iz zemlje Misirske, iz doma ropskoga, govoreæi:
14 At the end of seven years, every man of you shall release his brother who is a Hebrew, who has been sold to you, and has served you six years. You shall let him go free from you. But your fathers did not listen to me, and did not incline their ear.
Kad se svršuje sedma godina, otpuštajte svaki brata svojega Jevrejina koji ti se bude prodao i služio ti šest godina, otpusti ga slobodna od sebe. Ali ne poslušaše me oci vaši niti prignuše uha svojega.
15 You had now turned, and had done that which is right in my eyes, in every man proclaiming liberty to his neighbor. You had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name;
I vi se bjeste sada obratili i uèinili što je pravo preda mnom proglasivši slobodu svaki bližnjemu svojemu, uèinivši zavjet preda mnom u domu koji se zove mojim imenom.
16 but you turned and profaned my name, and every man caused his servant and every man his handmaid, whom you had let go free at their pleasure, to return. You brought them into subjection, to be to you for servants and for handmaids.’”
Ali udariste natrag i pogrdiste ime moje uzevši opet svaki roba svojega i robinju svoju, koje bijaste otpustili slobodne na njihovu volju, i natjeraste ih da vam budu robovi i robinje.
17 Therefore the LORD says: “You have not listened to me, to proclaim liberty, every man to his brother, and every man to his neighbor. Behold, I proclaim to you a liberty,” says the LORD, “to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine. I will make you be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the earth.
Zato ovako veli Gospod: vi ne poslušaste mene da proglasite slobodu svaki bratu svojemu i bližnjemu svojemu; evo, ja proglašujem slobodu suprot vama, govori Gospod, maèu, pomoru i gladi, i predaæu vas da se potucate po svijem carstvima zemaljskim.
18 I will give the men who have transgressed my covenant, who have not performed the words of the covenant which they made before me when they cut the calf in two and passed between its parts:
I predaæu ljude koji prestupiše moj zavjet, koji ne izvršiše rijeèi zavjeta koji uèiniše preda mnom, rasjekavši tele na dvoje i prošavši izmeðu polovina,
19 the princes of Judah, the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, the priests, and all the people of the land, who passed between the parts of the calf.
Knezove Judine i knezove Jerusalimske, dvorane i sveštenike i sav narod ove zemlje, koji proðoše izmeðu polovina onoga teleta,
20 I will even give them into the hand of their enemies and into the hand of those who seek their life. Their dead bodies will be food for the birds of the sky and for the animals of the earth.
Predaæu ih u ruke neprijateljima njihovijem i u ruke onima koji traže dušu njihovu, i mrtva æe tijela njihova biti hrana pticama nebeskim i zvijerima zemaljskim.
21 “I will give Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes into the hands of their enemies, into the hands of those who seek their life and into the hands of the king of Babylon’s army, who has gone away from you.
I Sedekiju cara Judina i knezove njegove predaæu u ruke neprijateljima njihovijem i u ruke onima koji traže dušu njihovu, u ruke vojsci cara Vavilonskoga, koja se vratila od vas.
22 Behold, I will command,” says the LORD, “and cause them to return to this city. They will fight against it, take it, and burn it with fire. I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.”
Evo, ja æu im zapovjediti, veli Gospod, i dovešæu ih opet na ovaj grad, i biæe ga i uzeæe ga i spaliæe ga ognjem; i gradove Judine obratiæu u pustoš da niko neæe stanovati u njima.
