Baruh 1

Biblija Hrvatski	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Ovo su riječi knjige koju u Babilonu napisa Baruh, sin Nerije, sina Maaseje, sina Sidkije, sina Hasadije, sina Hilkije,	1 And these are the words of the book, which Baruch the son of Nerias, the son of Maasias, the son of Sedecias, the son of Asadias, the son of Chelcias, wrote in Babylon,
2 pete godine, sedmoga dana u mjesecu, u vrijeme kada su Kaldejci osvojili Jeruzalem i spalili ga.	2 In the fifth year, and in the seventh day of the month, what time as the Chaldeans took Jerusalem, and burnt it with fire.
3 Baruh pročita riječi ove knjige pred Jekonijom, sinom Jojakimovim, kraljem Judinim, i pred čitavim narodom koji bijaše došao na čitanje knjige;	3 And Baruch did read the words of this book in the hearing of Jechonias the son of Joachim king of Juda, and in the ears of all the people that came to hear the book,
4 pred mogućnicima i kraljevim sinovima, pred starješinama, ukratko, pred svim narodom, malim i velikim, pred svima koji su živjeli u Babilonu, na obalama rijeke Suda.	4 And in the hearing of the nobles, and of the king's sons, and in the hearing of the elders, and of all the people, from the lowest unto the highest, even of all them that dwelt at Babylon by the river Sud.
5 Čuvši, plakali su, postili i molili se pred Gospodom.	5 Whereupon they wept, fasted, and prayed before the Lord.
6 Sabraše i novca, koliko tko mogaše,	6 They made also a collection of money according to every man's power:
7 i poslaše ga u Jeruzalem svećeniku Jojakimu, sinu Hilkije, Šalumova sina, i ostalim svećenicima i svemu narodu koji se s njim nalazio u Jeruzalemu.	7 And they sent it to Jerusalem unto Joachim the high priest, the son of Chelcias, son of Salom, and to the priests, and to all the people which were found with him at Jerusalem,
8 Desetoga dana mjeseca sivana Baruh je spasio posuđe kuće Gospodnje što bijaše ugrabljeno iz Hrama da bi ga odnio natrag u zemlju Judinu – srebrno posuđe što ga je načinio Sidkija, sin Jošijin, kralj Judin,	8 At the same time when he received the vessels of the house of the Lord, that were carried out of the temple, to return them into the land of Juda, the tenth day of the month Sivan, namely, silver vessels, which Sedecias the son of Josias king of Jada had made,
9 kad je Nabukodonozor, kralj babilonski, odveo iz Jeruzalema i u Babilon doveo Jekoniju s knezovima, ključarima, mogućnicima i svim narodom.	9 After that Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon had carried away Jechonias, and the princes, and the captives, and the mighty men, and the people of the land, from Jerusalem, and brought them unto Babylon.
10 I napisaše: »Evo, šaljemo vam novac da njime kupite žrtve paljenice i tamjan; pripravite žrtve i prinesite ih za grijehe na žrtveniku Gospoda, Boga našega.	10 And they said, Behold, we have sent you money to buy you burnt offerings, and sin offerings, and incense, and prepare ye manna, and offer upon the altar of the Lord our God;
11 I molite se za život Nabukodonozora, kralja babilonskog, i za život sina njegova Baltazara da im dani na zemlji budu kao dani neba;	11 And pray for the life of Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, and for the life of Balthasar his son, that their days may be upon earth as the days of heaven:
12 neka nam Gospod dade snage i prosvijetli oči naše da bismo živjeli u sjeni Nabukodonozora, kralja babilonskog, i u sjeni njegova sina Baltazara, da bismo ih dugo služili te našli milost pred njima.	12 And the Lord will give us strength, and lighten our eyes, and we shall live under the shadow of Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, and under the shadow of Balthasar his son, and we shall serve them many days, and find favour in their sight.
13 Molite se i za nas Gospodu, Bogu našem, jer smo ga uvrijedili i do danas se gnjev i srdžba Gospodnja nije odvratila od nas.	13 Pray for us also unto the Lord our God, for we have sinned against the Lord our God; and unto this day the fury of the Lord and his wrath is not turned from us.
14 Čitajte, dakle, knjigu koju vam šaljemo i obznanite je u kući Gospodnjoj, na blagdan i u dane zborovanja.	14 And ye shall read this book which we have sent unto you, to make confession in the house of the Lord, upon the feasts and solemn days.
15 Recite tada:« ‘Pravedan je Gospod, Bog naš! Ali nama treba da se danas zacrvene od stida obrazi – nama Judejcima i žiteljima jeruzalemskim,	15 And ye shall say, To the Lord our God belongeth righteousness, but unto us the confusion of faces, as it is come to pass this day, unto them of Juda, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem,
16 našim kraljevima i knezovima, našim svećenicima i prorocima i našim ocima,	16 And to our kings, and to our princes, and to our priests, and to our prophets, and to our fathers:
17 jer smo griješili pred Gospodom, bili mu nepokorni	17 For we have sinned before the Lord,
18 i nismo slušali glasa Gospoda, Boga svojega, da hodimo po zapovijedima koje Gospod bijaše stavio pred nas.	18 And disobeyed him, and have not hearkened unto the voice of the Lord our God, to walk in the commandments that he gave us openly:
19 Od dana kada je oce naše izveo iz Egipta pa do dana današnjega nepokorni smo bili Gospodu, Bogu svojem, i nismo marili da čujemo njegov glas.	19 Since the day that the Lord brought our forefathers out of the land of Egypt, unto this present day, we have been disobedient unto the Lord our God, and we have been negligent in not hearing his voice.
20 Tada navališe na nas nevolje i prokletstva kojima se Gospod zaprijetio sluzi svome Mojsiju u dan kada je izveo oce naše iz Egipta da bi nam dao zemlju kojom teče med i mlijeko. I tako je to do danas.	20 Wherefore the evils cleaved unto us, and the curse, which the Lord appointed by Moses his servant at the time that he brought our fathers out of the land of Egypt, to give us a land that floweth with milk and honey, like as it is to see this day.
21 Nismo bili poslušali glas Gospoda, Boga svojega, ni riječi njegovih preko proroka koje nam je on slao;	21 Nevertheless we have not hearkened unto the voice of the Lord our God, according unto all the words of the prophets, whom he sent unto us:
22 svaki je od nas hodio po nagnuću svoga opakog srca, služeći drugim bogovima i čineći što nije po volji Gospodu, Bogu našem.	22 But every man followed the imagination of his own wicked heart, to serve strange gods, and to do evil in the sight of the Lord our God.
