Jeremiah 14
1 The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah when there was no water.
Rijeè Gospodnja koja doðe Jeremiji o suši.
2 Judah is weeping and its doors are dark with sorrow, and people are seated on the earth clothed in black; and the cry of Jerusalem has gone up.
Juda tuži, i vrata su mu žalosna; leže na zemlji u crno zaviti; vika iz Jerusalima podiže se.
3 Their great men have sent their servants for water: they come to the holes and there is no water to be seen; they come back with nothing in their vessels; they are overcome with shame and fear, covering their heads.
Najveæi izmeðu njih šalju najmanje na vodu; došavši na studence ne nalaze vode, vraæaju se s praznijem sudovima svojim, stide se i srame se i pokrivaju glavu svoju.
4 Those who do work on the land are in fear, for there has been no rain on the land, and the farmers are shamed, covering their heads.
Zemlja je ispucala, jer ne bješe dažda na zemlji; zato se težaci stide i pokrivaju glavu svoju.
5 And the roe, giving birth in the field, lets her young one be uncared for, because there is no grass.
I košuta u polju ostavlja mlade svoje, jer nema trave.
6 And the asses of the field on the open hilltops are opening their mouths wide like jackals to get air; their eyes are hollow because there is no grass.
I divlji magarci stojeæi na visovima vuku u se vjetar kao zmajevi, oèi im išèilješe, jer nema trave.
7 Though our sins give witness against us, do something, O Lord, for the honour of your name: for again and again we have been turned away from you, we have done evil against you.
Kad bezakonja naša svjedoèe na nas, Gospode, uèini radi imena svojega; jer je mnogo odmeta naših, tebi sagriješismo.
8 O you hope of Israel, its saviour in time of trouble, why are you like one who is strange in the land, and like a traveller putting up his tent for a night?
Nade Izrailjev! spasitelju njegov u nevolji! zašto si kao tuðin u ovoj zemlji i kao putnik koji se uvrati da prenoæi?
9 Why are you like a man surprised, like a man of war who is not able to give help? but you, O Lord, are with us, and we are named by your name; do not go away from us.
Zašto si kao umoran èovjek, kao junak, koji ne može izbaviti? Ta, ti si usred nas, Gospode, i ime je tvoje prizvano na nas; nemoj nas ostaviti.
10 This is what the Lord has said about this people: Even so they have been glad to go from the right way; they have not kept their feet from wandering, so the Lord has no pleasure in them; now he will keep their wrongdoing in mind and send punishment for their sins.
Ovako govori Gospod za narod ovaj: milo im je da se skitaju, ne ustavljaju nogu svojih, zato nijesu mili Gospodu; sada æe se opomenuti bezakonja njihova i pohodiæe grijehe njihove.
11 And the Lord said to me, Make no prayer for this people for their good.
Potom reèe mi Gospod: ne moli se za taj narod da bi mu bilo dobro.
12 When they go without food, I will not give ear to their cry; when they give burned offerings and meal offerings, I will not take pleasure in them: but I will put an end to them by the sword and by need of food and by disease.
Ako æe i postiti, neæu uslišiti vike njihove; i ako æe prinijeti žrtve paljenice i dar, neæe mi to ugoditi, nego maèem i glaðu i pomorom pomoriæu ih.
13 Then I said, Ah, Lord God! see, the prophets say to them, You will not see the sword or be short of food; but I will give you certain peace in this place.
Tada rekoh: oh, Gospode Gospode, evo, proroci im govore: neæete vidjeti maèa, i neæe biti gladi u vas, nego æu vam dati mir pouzdan na ovom mjestu.
14 Then the Lord said to me, The prophets say false words in my name, and I gave them no orders, and I said nothing to them: what they say to you is a false vision and wonder-working words without substance, the deceit of their hearts.
A Gospod mi reèe: laž prorokuju ti proroci u moje ime, nijesam ih poslao, niti sam im zapovjedio, niti sam im govorio; lažne utvare i gatanje i ništavilo i prijevaru srca svojega oni vam prorokuju.
15 So this is what the Lord has said about the prophets who make use of my name, though I sent them not, and say, The sword and need of food will not be in this land: the sword and need of food will put an end to those prophets.
Zato ovako veli Gospod za proroke koji prorokuju u moje ime a ja ih nijesam poslao, i govore: neæe biti maèa ni gladi u ovoj zemlji: od maèa i gladi izginuæe ti proroci.
16 And the people to whom they are prophets will be pushed out dead into the streets of Jerusalem, because there is no food, and because of the sword; and they will have no one to put their bodies into the earth, them or their wives or their sons or their daughters: for I will let loose their evil-doing on them.
A narod ovaj kojemu oni prorokuju biæe povaljan po ulicama Jerusalimskim od gladi i maèa, i neæe biti nikoga da ih pogrebe, njih, žene njihove i sinove njihove i kæeri njihove; tako æu izliti na njih zloæu njihovu.
17 And you are to say this word to them, Let my eyes be streaming with water night and day, and let it not be stopped; for the virgin daughter of my people is wounded with a great wound, with a very bitter blow.
Reci im dakle ovu rijeè: neka oèi moje liju suze danju i noæu i neka ne prestaju, jer djevojka kæi mojega naroda satr se veoma, od udarca preljuta.
18 If I go out into the open country, there are those put to death by the sword! and if I go into the town, there are those who are diseased from need of food! for the prophet and the priest go about in the land and have no knowledge.
Ako izidem u polje, eto pobijenijeh maèem; ako uðem u grad, eto iznemoglijeh od gladi; jer i prorok i sveštenik otidoše u zemlju koje ne znaju.
19 Have you completely given up Judah? is your soul turned in disgust from Zion? why have you given us blows from which there is no one to make us well? we were looking for peace, but no good came; and for a time of well-being, but there was only a great fear.
Eda li si sasvijem odbacio Judu? eda li je omrzao duši tvojoj Sion? Zašto si nas udario tako da nam nema lijeka? Èekasmo mir ali nema dobra; i vrijeme da ozdravimo, a gle, strah.
20 We are conscious, O Lord, of our sin and of the wrongdoing of our fathers: we have done evil against you.
Priznajemo, Gospode, zloæu svoju, bezakonje otaca svojih, zgriješili smo ti.
21 Do not be turned from us in disgust, because of your name; do not put shame on the seat of your glory: keep us in mind, let not your agreement with us be broken.
Nemoj nas odvræi radi imena svojega; nemoj naružiti prijestola slave svoje, opomeni se zavjeta svojega s nama, nemoj ga ukinuti.
22 Are any of the false gods of the nations able to make rain come? are the heavens able to give showers? are you not he, O Lord our God? so we will go on waiting for you, for you have done all these things.
Ima li meðu taštinama u naroda koji da daje dažd? ili nebesa daju li sitan dažd? Nijesi li ti to, Gospode Bože naš? Zato tebe èekamo, jer ti èiniš sve to.
