Jeremiah 29

DOUAI-RHEIMS	Biblija Hrvatski
1 Now these are the words of the letter which Jeremias, the prophet sent from Jerusalem to the residue of the ancients that were carried into captivity, and to the priests, and to the prophets, and to all the people, whom Nabuchodonosor had carried away from Jerusalem to Babylon:	1 Evo, ovo su riječi poslanice koju prorok Jeremija iz Jeruzalema posla Ostatku izgnanstva – starješinama, svećenicima i prorocima i svemu preostalom narodu što ga Nabukodonozor iz Jeruzalema bijaše odveo u Babilon,
2 After that Jechonias the king, and the queen, and the eunuchs, and the princes of Juda, and of Jerusalem, and the craftsman, and the engravers were departed out of Jerusalem :	2 pošto kralj Jekonija i kraljica-majka, dvorjanici, odličnici judejski i jeruzalemski, kovači i bravari ostaviše Jeruzalem.
3 By the hand of Elasa the son of Saphan, and Gamarias the son of Helcias, whom Sedecias king of Juda sent to Babylon to Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, saying:	3 Poslanica je poslana po Elasi, sinu Šafanovu, i Gemarji, sinu Hilkijinu, koje Sidkija, kralj judejski, posla u Babilon Nabukodonozoru, kralju babilonskom. Evo sadržaja:
4 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, to all that are carried away captives, whom I have caused to be carried away from Jerusalem to Babylon:	4 »Ovako govori Jahve nad vojskama, kralj Izraelov: ‘Svima izgnanicima koje odvedoh iz Jeruzalema u Babilon!
5 Build ye houses, and dwell in them: and plant orchards, and eat the fruit of them.	5 Gradite kuće i nastanite se, sadite vrtove i uživajte urod njihov!
6 Take ye wives, and beget sons and daughters: and take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, and let them bear sons and daughters: and be ye multiplied there, and be not few in number.	6 Ženite se i rađajte sinove i kćeri! Ženite svoje sinove i udajite svoje kćeri da i oni rađaju sinove i kćeri! Množite se da se ne smanjite!
7 And seek the peace of the city, to which I have caused you to be carried away captives; and pray to the Lord for it: for in the peace thereof shall be your peace.	7 Ištite mir zemlji u koju vas izagnah, molite se za nju Jahvi, jer na njezinu miru počiva i vaš mir!’
8 For thus saith the Lord of hoses the God of Israel: Let not your prophets that are in the midst of you, and your diviners deceive you: and give no heed to your dreams which you dream:	8 Ovako govori Jahve nad vojskama, Bog Izraelov: ‘Ne dajte da vas obmanjuju vaši proroci koji su među vama, vaši gataoci! Ne povodite se za snovima koje oni sanjaju!
9 For they prophesy falsely to you in my name: and I have not sent them, saith the Lord.	9 Jer oni vam laž prorokuju u moje ime, a ja ih nisam poslao’ – riječ je Jahvina.«
10 For thus saith the Lord: When the seventy years shall begin to be accomplished in Babylon, I will visit you: and I will perform my good word in your favour, to bring you again to this place.	10 Jer ovako govori Jahve: ‘Istom kad se Babilonu ispuni onih sedamdeset godina, ja ću vas pohoditi te vam ispuniti dobro obećanje da ću vas vratiti na ovo mjesto.
11 For I know the thoughts that I think towards you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of affliction, to give you an end and patience.	11 Jer ja znam svoje naume koje s vama namjeravam’ – riječ je Jahvina – ‘naume mira, a ne nesreće: da vam dadnem budućnost i nadu.
12 And you shall call upon me, and you shall go: and you shall pray to me, and I will hear you.	12 Tada ćete me zazivati, dolaziti k meni, moliti mi se i ja ću vas uslišati.
13 You shall seek me, and shall And me: when you shall seek me with all your heart.	13 Tražit ćete me i naći me jer ćete me tražiti svim srcem svojim.
14 And I will be found by you, saith the Lord: and I will bring back your captivity, and I will gather you out of all nations, and from all the places to which I have driven you out, saith the Lord: and I will bring you back from the place to which I caused you to be carried away captive.	14 I pustit ću da me nađete’ – riječ je Jahvina. ‘Izmijenit ću udes vaš i sabrati vas iz svih naroda i sa svih mjesta kamo vas odagnah’ – riječ je Jahvina. ‘I vratit ću vas na mjesto odakle vas u izagnanstvo odvedoh.’
15 Because you have said: The Lord hath raised us up prophets in Babylon:	15 Istina, vi velite: ‘Jahve nam podiže proroke u Babilonu.’
16 For thus saith the Lord to the king that sitteth upon the throne of David, and to all the people that dwell in this city, to your brethren that are not gone forth with you into captivity.	16 Ovako govori Jahve kralju koji sjedi na prijestolju Davidovu, i svemu narodu koji živi u ovome gradu – braći vašoj što ne moradoše s vama u izgnanstvo.
17 Thus saith the Lord of hosts: Behold I will send upon them the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence: and I will make them like bad figs that cannot be eaten, because they are very bad.	17 Ovako govori Jahve nad vojskama: »Evo šaljem na njih mač, glad i kugu; učinit ću da budu kao pokvarene smokve, tako loše da nisu za jelo.
18 And I will persecute them with the sword, and with famine, and pith the pestilence: and I will give them up unto affliction to all the kingdoms of the earth: to be a curse, and an astonishment, and a hissing, and a reproach to all the nations to which I have driven them out:	18 I gonit ću ih mačem, glađu i kugom i učinit ću ih užasom svim kraljevstvima zemaljskim, prokletstvom, strahotom, ruglom i sramotom svim narodima kamo ih otjeram.
19 Because they have not hearkened to my words, saith the Lord: which I sent to them by my servants the prophets, rising by night, and sending: and you have not heard, saith the Lord.	19 Jer ne poslušaše riječi mojih« – riječ je Jahvina – »premda sam im svejednako slao sluge svoje proroke, ali ih oni ne poslušaše« – riječ je Jahvina.
20 Hear ye therefore the word of the Lord, all ye of the captivity, whom I have sent out from Jerusalem to Babylon.	20 »Ali vi, izgnanici, koje poslah iz Jeruzalema u Babilon, poslušajte svi riječ Jahvinu!«
21 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, to Achab the son of Colias, and to Sedecias the son of Maasias, who prophesy unto you in my name falsely: Behold I will deliver them up into the hands of Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon: and he shall kill them before your eyes.	21 Ovako govori Jahve nad vojskama, kralj Izraelov, o Ahabu, sinu Kolajinu, i o Sidkiji, sinu Maasejinu, koji vam laž prorokuje u moje ime: »Evo, predajem ih u ruke Nabukodonozora, kralja babilonskoga, da ih pogubi vama na oči.
22 And of them shall be taken up a curse by all the captivity of Juda, that are in Babylon, saying: The Lord make thee like Sedecias, and like Achab, whom the king of Babylon fried in the fire :	22 I njima će se kao kletvom proklinjati svi izgnanici koji su u Babilonu: ‘Neka Jahve učini s tobom kao sa Sidkijom i Ahabom koje kralj babilonski ispeče na vatri
23 Because they have acted folly in Israel, and have committed adultery with the wives of their friends, and have spoken lying words in my name, which I commanded them not: I am the judge and the witness, saith the Lord.	23 jer u Izraelu počiniše sramotu čineći preljub sa ženama svojih bližnjih i govoreći u moje ime lažne riječi koje im ja nisam zapovjedio. Ja to znam, i svjedok sam tome’ – riječ je Jahvina!«
24 And to Semeias the Nehelamite thou shalt say:	24 A Šemaji ćeš Nehelamcu poručiti:
25 Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Because thou hast sent letters in thy name to all the people that are in Jerusalem, and to Sophonias the son of Maasias the priest, and to all the priests, saying:	25 »Ovako govori Jahve nad vojskama, Bog Izraelov: Ti si u svoje ime poslao pisma svemu narodu koji je u Jeruzalemu, i svećeniku Sefaniji, sinu Maasejinu, i svim ostalim svećenicima:
26 The Lord hath made thee priest instead of Joiada the priest, that thou shouldst be ruler in the house of the Lord, over every man that raveth and prophesieth, to put him in the stocks, and into prison.	26 ‘Jahve te postavi svećenikom namjesto svećenika Jojade da paziš u domu Jahvinu na svakog luđaka koji se gradi prorokom i da ga baciš u klade, sa željezom oko vrata.
27 And now why hast thou not rebuked Jeremias the Anathothite, who prophesieth to you?	27 Zašto, dakle, nisi spriječio Jeremiju iz Anatota, koji se među vama gradi prorokom?
28 For he hath also sent to us in Babylon, saying: It is a long time: build ye houses, and dwell in them: and plant gardens, and eat the fruits of them.	28 Ta on nam je poslao poruku u Babilon: Dugo će još trajati: Gradite kuće i nastanite se! Sadite vrtove i uživajte urod njihov!’«
29 So Sophonias the priest read this letter, in the hearing of Jeremias the prophet.	29 Svećenik Sefanija pročita pismo proroku Jeremiji.
30 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, saying:	30 Tada dođe riječ Jahvina Jeremiji:
31 Send to all them of the captivity, saying: Thus saith the Lord to Semeias the Nehelamite: Because Semeias hath prophesied to you, and I sent him not: and hath caused you to trust in a lie :	31 »Pošalji svim izgnanicima ovu vijest: Ovako govori Jahve o Šemaji Nehelamcu: ‘Jer vam Šemaja prorokuje te vam budi varave nade, premda ga ja nisam poslao,
32 Therefore thus saith the Lord: behold I will visit upon Semeias the Nehelamite, and upon his seed: he shall not have a man to sit in the midst of this people, and he shall not see the good that I will do to my people, saith the Lord: because he hath spoken treason against the Lord.	32 ovako govori Jahve: Kaznit ću Šemaju Nehelamca, njega i potomstvo njegovo: nitko mu neće preostati usred ovoga naroda da doživi sreću koju spremam narodu svojemu’ – riječ je Jahvina – ‘jer je propovijedao pobunu protiv Jahve.’«
