Jeremiah 32

Riječ koju Jahve uputi Jeremiji desete godine Sidkije, kralja judejskoga, to jest osamnaeste godine Nabukodonozorove.

The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar.

U to vrijeme vojska kralja babilonskoga opsjedaše Jeruzalem, a prorok Jeremija bijaše zatvoren u tamničkom dvorištu u dvoru judejskoga kralja.

For then the king of Babylon's army besieged Jerusalem: and Jeremiah the prophet was shut up in the court of the prison, which was in the king of Judah's house.

Sidkija, kralj judejski, bijaše ga ondje zatvorio, prigovoriv mu: "Zašto si prorokovao: 'Ovako govori Jahve: Gle, grad ću ovaj predati u ruke kralju babilonskom da ga osvoji;

For Zedekiah king of Judah had shut him up, saying, Wherefore dost thou prophesy, and say, Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it;

a Sidkija, kralj judejski, neće umaći sili kaldejskoj, nego će biti predan u ruke kralja babilonskoga - usta u usta s njim će govoriti, oči u oči njega vidjeti.

And Zedekiah king of Judah shall not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans, but shall surely be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon, and shall speak with him mouth to mouth, and his eyes shall behold his eyes;

Sidkiju će odvesti u Babilon i ondje će ostati dok ga ne pohodim - riječ je Jahvina! I ako se budete borili protiv Kaldejaca, nećete uspjeti!'"

And he shall lead Zedekiah to Babylon, and there shall he be until I visit him, saith the LORD: though ye fight with the Chaldeans, ye shall not prosper.

Tada reče Jeremija: "Dođe mi riječ Jahvina:

And Jeremiah said, The word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

'Uskoro će doći k tebi Hanamel, sin tvoga strica Šaluma, da ti kaže: Kupi njivu moju u Anatotu; ti imaš rodbinsko pravo da je kupiš!'

Behold, Hanameel the son of Shallum thine uncle shall come unto thee, saying, Buy thee my field that is in Anathoth: for the right of redemption is thine to buy it.

Kako je Jahve navijestio, k meni dođe moj stričević Hanamel u tamničko dvorište i reče mi: 'De kupi moju njivu u Anatotu, jer ti imaš pravo na posjed i rodbinsko pravo da je kupiš! Kupi je!' I tada spoznah da to bijaše riječ Jahvina.

So Hanameel mine uncle's son came to me in the court of the prison according to the word of the LORD, and said unto me, Buy my field, I pray thee, that is in Anathoth, which is in the country of Benjamin: for the right of inheritance is thine, and the redemption is thine; buy it for thyself. Then I knew that this was the word of the LORD.

Kupih, dakle, tu njivu od stričevića Hanamela iz Anatota te mu izmjerih u novcu sedamnaest šekela srebra.

And I bought the field of Hanameel my uncle's son, that was in Anathoth, and weighed him the money, even seventeen shekels of silver.

Napišem ugovor, udarim pečat, pozovem svjedoke i izmjerim novac na tezulji.

And I subscribed the evidence, and sealed it, and took witnesses, and weighed him the money in the balances.

Zatim uzmem kupovni ugovor, zapečaćen prema propisu i uredbama,

So I took the evidence of the purchase, both that which was sealed according to the law and custom, and that which was open:

predam kupovni ugovor Baruhu, sinu Mahsejeva sina Nerije. Nazočni su bili: moj stričević Hanamel, svjedoci što su potpisali kupovni ugovor i svi Judejci koji su se našli u tamničkom dvorištu.

And I gave the evidence of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neriah, the son of Maaseiah, in the sight of Hanameel mine uncle's son, and in the presence of the witnesses that subscribed the book of the purchase, before all the Jews that sat in the court of the prison.

Tada pred njima zapovjedim Baruhu:

And I charged Baruch before them, saying,

'Ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama, Bog Izraelov: Uzmi ove isprave, ovaj kupovni ugovor, zapečaćeni i otvoreni, i stavi ih u glinenu posudu da se zadugo sačuvaju.

Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Take these evidences, this evidence of the purchase, both which is sealed, and this evidence which is open; and put them in an earthen vessel, that they may continue many days.

Jer ovako govori Jahve nad Vojskama, Bog Izraelov: Još će se u ovoj zemlji kupovati i kuće, i njive, i vinogradi!'"

For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Houses and fields and vineyards shall be possessed again in this land.

Pošto kupovni ugovor predadoh Nerijinu sinu Baruhu, pomolih se Jahvi:

Now when I had delivered the evidence of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neriah, I prayed unto the LORD, saying,

"O, Jahve, Gospode! Ti stvori nebo i zemlju snagom velikom, rukom uzdignutom! Ništa tebi nije nemoguće!

Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee:

Tisućama iskazuješ milost, a krivnju otaca osvećuješ na djeci, potomcima njihovim. Bože veliki i moćni, kome je ime Jahve nad Vojskama!

Thou shewest lovingkindness unto thousands, and recompensest the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them: the Great, the Mighty God, the LORD of hosts, is his name,

Velik si u svojim naumima, silan u svojim djelima! Oči tvoje bde nad svim putovima ljudskim da naplatiš svakome prema putu njegovu i prema plodu djela njegovih!

Great in counsel, and mighty in work: for thine eyes are open upon all the ways of the sons of men: to give every one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings:

Ti koji si činio znamenja i čudesa u zemlji egipatskoj i u Izraelu, i među svim ljudima sve do danas,

Which hast set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, even unto this day, and in Israel, and among other men; and hast made thee a name, as at this day;

ti si izveo svoj narod izraelski iz zemlje egipatske znamenjima i čudesima, rukom moćnom i mišicom podignutom, strahotama velikim.

And hast brought forth thy people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signs, and with wonders, and with a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with great terror;

Zatim im dade svu ovu zemlju koju si zakletvom obećao ocima njihovim, zemlju u kojoj teče med i mlijeko.

And hast given them this land, which thou didst swear to their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey;

I oni je zaposjedoše; ali nisu slušali glasa tvojega niti su hodili putem Zakona tvojega. Ništa ne učiniše od onog što im ti naredi; zato si dozvao na njih sve ove nevolje.

And they came in, and possessed it; but they obeyed not thy voice, neither walked in thy law; they have done nothing of all that thou commandedst them to do: therefore thou hast caused all this evil to come upon them:

Gle, nasipi se već primakoše gradu, i bit će osvojen, i grad će pasti u ruke Kaldejcima koji na nj navaljuju mačem, glađu i kugom. Čime si prijetio, evo dolazi. I sam vidiš.

Behold the mounts, they are come unto the city to take it; and the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans, that fight against it, because of the sword, and of the famine, and of the pestilence: and what thou hast spoken is come to pass; and, behold, thou seest it.

A ti mi, Jahve Gospode moj, reče: 'Kupi novcem njivu i pozovi svjedoke', a grad je već predan u ruke Kaldejcima!"

And thou hast said unto me, O Lord GOD, Buy thee the field for money, and take witnesses; for the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.

Tada mi dođe riječ Jahvina:

Then came the word of the LORD unto Jeremiah, saying,

"Gle, ja sam Jahve, Bog svakoga tijela! Meni ništa nije nemoguće!

Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?

Zato - veli Jahve - grad ovaj predajem u ruke Kaldejaca i u ruke kralja babilonskoga, koji će ga zauzeti.

Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and he shall take it:

Ući će u nj Kaldejci koji se bore protiv ovoga grada, ognjem će ga uništiti i spaliti ga zajedno s kućama kojima su na krovovima Baalu palili tamjan i lijevali ljevanice tuđim bogovima, mene gnjeveći.

And the Chaldeans, that fight against this city, shall come and set fire on this city, and burn it with the houses, upon whose roofs they have offered incense unto Baal, and poured out drink offerings unto other gods, to provoke me to anger.

Jer sinovi Izraelovi i sinovi Judini od mladosti čine samo zlo pred mojim očima. Doista, sinovi Izraelovi bez prestanka me gnjeve djelima ruku svojih - riječ je Jahvina.

For the children of Israel and the children of Judah have only done evil before me from their youth: for the children of Israel have only provoked me to anger with the work of their hands, saith the LORD.

Grad ovaj, doista, samo mi je na gnjev i srdžbu otkako je sagrađen pa do dana današnjega te ga moram ukloniti ispred lica svojega

For this city hath been to me as a provocation of mine anger and of my fury from the day that they built it even unto this day; that I should remove it from before my face,

zbog svega bezakonja što ga sinovi Izraelovi i sinovi Judini počiniše, gnjeveći me - oni i kraljevi njihovi, knezovi i svećenici i proroci, Judejci i Jeruzalemci.

Because of all the evil of the children of Israel and of the children of Judah, which they have done to provoke me to anger, they, their kings, their princes, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

Okretahu mi leđa, a ne lice svoje, iako se neumorno trudih da ih poučim, ali me ne slušaše niti nauk moj primiše.

And they have turned unto me the back, and not the face: though I taught them, rising up early and teaching them, yet they have not hearkened to receive instruction.

Postaviše grozote u Dom koji se mojim zove imenom da ga oskvrnu.

But they set their abominations in the house, which is called by my name, to defile it.

Baalu podigoše uzvišice u Dolini Ben Hinomu, i sinove i kćeri svoje Moleku kroz oganj provodiše - što im ja nikad ne zapovjedih; ni na um mi ne pade da bi činili takve gadosti niti da bih Judu pustio u takav grijeh."

And they built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire unto Molech; which I commanded them not, neither came it into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.

Ipak, ovako govori Jahve, Bog Izraelov, o tom gradu za koji vi velite da će od mača, gladi i kuge pasti u ruke kralju babilonskom:

And now therefore thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, concerning this city, whereof ye say, It shall be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence;

"Evo, ja ću ih sabrati iz svih zemalja u koje ih prognah - u gnjevu i jarosti svojoj - i vratit ću ih na ovo mjesto da ovdje spokojno žive.

Behold, I will gather them out of all countries, whither I have driven them in mine anger, and in my fury, and in great wrath; and I will bring them again unto this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely:

I oni će biti narod moj, a ja, ja ću biti Bog njihov.

And they shall be my people, and I will be their God:

I dat ću im srce jedno i put jedan, da bi me se bojali u sve dane, na sreću svoju i djece svoje.

And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me for ever, for the good of them, and of their children after them:

I sklopit ću s njima Savez vječan, nikad se više neću odvratiti od njih i uvijek ću im činiti dobro; usadit ću im u srce svoj strah, da se nikad više ne odmetnu od mene.

And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; but I will put my fear in their hearts, that they shall not depart from me.

I radovat ću se čineći im dobro; i čvrsto ću ih zasaditi u ovoj zemlji, svim srcem svojim, svom dušom svojom."

Yea, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will plant them in this land assuredly with my whole heart and with my whole soul.

Jer ovako govori Jahve: "Kao što sam na ovaj narod doveo svu ovu strašnu nesreću, tako ću na njih dovesti svu sreću koju im obrekoh.

For thus saith the LORD; Like as I have brought all this great evil upon this people, so will I bring upon them all the good that I have promised them.

Da, opet će se kupovati njive u ovoj zemlji o kojoj vi velite: 'Ova je pustinja, bez čovjeka i živinčeta, predana na milost i nemilost Kaldejcima!'

And fields shall be bought in this land, whereof ye say, It is desolate without man or beast; it is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.

Njive će se za novac kupovati, pisat će se i pečatiti kupovni ugovori, pozivat će se svjedoci u zemlji Benjaminovoj i u okolici Jeruzalema. U gradovima Judinim i u gradovima Gorja, Šefele, Negeba, jer ću promijeniti udes njihov" - riječ je Jahvina.

Men shall buy fields for money, and subscribe evidences, and seal them, and take witnesses in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, and in the cities of the mountains, and in the cities of the valley, and in the cities of the south: for I will cause their captivity to return, saith the LORD.
