Jeremiah 25

1 The word which came to Jeremiah about all the people of Judah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah king of Judah; this was the first year of Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon.

Rijeè koja doðe Jeremiji za sav narod Judin èetvrte godine Joakima sina Josijina cara Judina, a to je prva godina Navuhodonosora cara Vavilonskoga,

2 This word Jeremiah gave out to all the people of Judah and to those living in Jerusalem, saying,

Koju reèe Jeremija prorok svemu narodu Judinu i svijem stanovnicima Jerusalimskim, govoreæi:

3 From the thirteenth year of Josiah, the son of Amon, king of Judah, even till this day, for twenty-three years, the word of the Lord has been coming to me, and I have given it to you, getting up early and talking to you; but you have not given ear.

Od trinaeste godine Josije sina Amonova cara Judina do danas, za ove dvadeset i tri godine, dolazi mi rijeè Gospodnja i govorih vam zarana jednako, ali ne poslušaste.

4 And the Lord has sent to you all his servants the prophets, getting up early and sending them; but you have not given attention and your ear has not been open to give hearing;

I sla vam Gospod sve sluge svoje proroke zarana jednako, ali ne poslušaste, niti prignuste uha svojega da biste èuli.

5 Saying, Come back now, everyone from his evil way and from the evil of your doings, and keep your place in the land which the Lord has given to you and to your fathers, from times long past even for ever:

I govorahu: vratite se svaki sa svojega puta zloga i od zloæe djela svojih, pa æete ostati u zemlji koju dade Gospod vama i ocima vašim od vijeka do vijeka.

6 Do not go after other gods to be their servants and to give them worship, and do not make me angry with the work of your hands, causing evil to yourselves.

I ne idite za drugim bogovima da im služite i da im se klanjate, i ne gnjevite me djelom ruku svojih, i neæu vam uèiniti zla.

7 But you have not given ear to me, says the Lord; so that you have made me angry with the work of your hands, causing evil to yourselves.

Ali me ne poslušaste, govori Gospod, nego me gnjeviste djelom ruku svojih na svoje zlo.

8 So this is what the Lord of armies has said: Because you have not given ear to my words,

Zato ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: što ne poslušaste mojih rijeèi,

9 See, I will send and take all the families of the north, says the Lord, and Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, my servant, and make them come against this land, and against its people, and against all these nations on every side; and I will give them up to complete destruction, and make them a cause of fear and surprise and a waste place for ever.

Evo, ja æu poslati po sve narode sjeverne, govori Gospod, i po Navuhodonosora cara Vavilonskoga slugu svojega, i dovešæu ih na tu zemlju i na stanovnike njezine, i na sve te narode okolne, koje æu zatrti, i uèiniæu da budu èudo i potsmijeh i pustoš vjeèna.

10 And more than this, I will take from them the sound of laughing voices, the voice of joy, the voice of the newly-married man, and the voice of the bride, the sound of the stones crushing the grain, and the shining of lights.

I uèiniæu da nestane meðu njima glasa radosna i glasa vesela, glasa ženikova i glasa nevjestina, lupe od žrvanja i svjetlosti od žiška.

11 All this land will be a waste and a cause of wonder; and these nations will be the servants of the king of Babylon for seventy years.

I sva æe ta zemlja biti pustoš i èudo, i ti æe narodi služiti caru Vavilonskom sedamdeset godina.

12 And it will come about, after seventy years are ended, that I will send punishment on the king of Babylon, and on that nation, says the Lord, for their evil-doing, and on the land of the Chaldaeans; and I will make it a waste for ever.

A kad se navrši sedamdeset godina, onda æu pohoditi cara Vavilonskoga i onaj narod, govori Gospod, za bezakonje njihovo, i zemlju Haldejsku, i obratiæu je u pustoš vjeènu.

13 And I will make that land undergo everything I have said against it, even everything recorded in this book, which Jeremiah the prophet has said against all the nations.

I pustiæu na tu zemlju sve što sam govorio o njoj, sve što je napisano u ovoj knjizi, što prorokova Jeremija za sve narode.

14 For a number of nations and great kings will make servants of them, even of them: and I will give them the reward of their acts, even the reward of the work of their hands.

Jer æe veliki narodi i silni carevi i njih pokoriti; tada æu im platiti po djelima njihovijem i po onom što su èinili rukama svojim.

15 For this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, has said to me: Take the cup of the wine of this wrath from my hand, and make all the nations to whom I send you take of it.

Jer ovako mi reèe Gospod Bog Izrailjev: uzmi iz moje ruke èašu vina, ovoga gnjeva, i napoj iz nje sve narode ka kojima te ja pošljem,

16 And after drinking it, they will go rolling from side to side, and be off their heads, because of the sword which I will send among them.

Neka piju i smetu se i polude od oštroga maèa koji æu ja poslati meðu njih.

17 Then I took the cup from the Lord's hand, and gave a drink from it to all the nations to whom the Lord sent me;

I uzeh èašu iz ruke Gospodu, i napojih sve te narode, ka kojima me posla Gospod:

18 Jerusalem and the towns of Judah and their kings and their princes, to make them a waste place, a cause of fear and surprise and a curse, as it is this day;

Jerusalim i gradove Judine i careve njegove i knezove njegove, da budu pustoš i èudo i potsmijeh i uklin, kao što je danas,

19 Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and his servants and his princes and all his people;

Faraona cara Misirskoga i sluge njegove i knezove njegove i sav narod njegov,

20 And all the mixed people and all the kings of the land of Uz, and all the kings of the land of the Philistines, and Ashkelon and Gaza and Ekron and the rest of Ashdod;

I svu mješavinu, i sve careve zemlje Uza, sve careve zemlje Filistejske, i Askalon i Gazu i Akaron i ostatak od Azota,

21 Edom and Moab and the children of Ammon,

Edomce i Moavce i sinove Amonove,

22 And all the kings of Tyre, and all the kings of Zidon, and the kings of the lands across the sea;

I sve careve Tirske i sve careve Sidonske i careve na ostrvima preko mora,

23 Dedan and Tema and Buz, and all who have the ends of their hair cut;

Dedana i Temu i Vuza, i sve koji se s kraja strigu,

24 And all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the mixed people living in the waste land;

I sve careve Arapske i sve careve od mješavine koji žive u pustinji,

25 And all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes;

I sve careve Zimrijske, i sve careve Elamske, i sve careve Midske,

26 And all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world on the face of the earth.

I sve careve sjeverne, koji su blizu i koji su daleko, kako jednoga tako drugoga, i sva carstva zemaljska što su po zemlji; a car Sisaški piæe poslije njih.

27 And you are to say to them, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Take of this cup and be overcome, and let it come out again from your lips, and from your fall you will never be lifted up again, because of the sword which I will send among you.

I reci im: ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama Bog Izrailjev: pijte i opijte se, i bljujte i padajte, da ne ustanete od maèa koji æu pustiti meðu vas.

28 And it will be, if they will not take of the cup in your hand, then you are to say to them, This is what the Lord of armies has said: You will certainly take of it.

Ako li ne bi htjeli uzeti èaše iz ruke tvoje da piju, tada im reci: ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: zaista æete piti.

29 For see, I am starting to send evil on the town which is named by my name, and are you to be without any punishment? You will not be without punishment: for I will send a sword on all people living on the earth, says the Lord of armies.

Jer evo poèinjem puštati zlo na grad koji se naziva mojim imenom, a vi li æete ostati bez kara? neæete ostati bez kara, jer æu dozvati maè na sve stanovnike zemaljske, govori Gospod nad vojskama.

30 So, as a prophet, give out these words among them, and say to them, The voice of the Lord will be sounding like a lion from on high; he will send out his voice from his holy place, like the loud voice of a lion, against his flock; he will give a cry, like those who are crushing the grapes, against all the people of the earth.

Ti dakle prorokuj im sve ove rijeèi i reci im: Gospod æe s visine riknuti, i iz stana svetinje svoje pustiæe glas svoj, silno æe riknuti iz stana svojega, kao oni što gaze grožðe podignuæe viku na sve stanovnike zemaljske.

31 A noise will come, even to the end of the earth; for the Lord has a cause against the nations, he will give his decision against all flesh; as for the evil-doers, he will give them to the sword, says the Lord.

Proæi æe graja do kraja zemlje, jer raspru ima Gospod s narodima, sudi se sa svakim tijelom, bezbožnike æe dati pod maè, govori Gospod.

32 This is what the Lord of armies has said: See, evil is going out from nation to nation, and a great storm will come up from the inmost parts of the earth.

Ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: evo, nevolja æe poæi od naroda do naroda, i velik æe se vihor podignuti od krajeva zemaljskih.

33 And at that day, the bodies of those whom the Lord has put to death will be seen from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth: there will be no weeping for them, their bodies will not be taken up or put to rest in the earth; they will be like waste on the face of the land.

I u onaj æe dan biti od kraja do kraja zemlje pobijeni od Gospoda, neæe biti oplakani, niti æe se pokupiti i pogrepsti, biæe gnoj po zemlji.

34 Give cries of grief, you keepers of sheep; give cries for help, rolling yourselves in the dust, you chiefs of the flock: for the days of your destruction have fully come, and I will send you in all directions, and your fall will be like that of the males of the flock.

Ridajte, pastiri, i vièite i valjajte se po prahu, glavari stadu, jer se navršiše vaši dani da budete poklani, i da se razaspete, i pašæete kao skupocjen sud.

35 There will be no way of flight for the keepers of sheep, no road for the chiefs of the flock to get away safely.

I neæe biti utoèišta pastirima, ni izbavljenja glavarima od stada.

36 A sound of the cry of the keepers of sheep, and the bitter crying of the chiefs of the flock! for the Lord has made waste their green fields.

Vikaæe pastiri i ridaæe glavari od stada, jer æe potrti Gospod pašu njihovu.

37 And there is no sound in the fields of peace, because of the burning wrath of the Lord.

I razvaliæe se mirni torovi od žestokoga gnjeva Gospodnjega.

38 The lion has come out of his secret place, for the land has become a waste because of the cruel sword, and because of the heat of his wrath.

Kao laviæ ostavio je šator svoj, jer æe zemlja njihova opustjeti od žestine nasilnikove i od ljutoga gnjeva njegova.
