Micah 3

New American Bible	Hrvatska Biblija
¹ And I said: Hear, you leaders of Jacob, rulers of the house of Israel! Is it not your duty to know what is right,	¹ Potom rekoh: »Čujte sada, glavari kuće Jakovljeve, suci doma Izraelova! Nije li na vama da znate što je pravo? Ali vi mrzite dobro, a ljubite zlo!
² you who hate what is good, and love evil? You who tear their skin from them, and their flesh from their bones!	² Vi ljudima derete kožu s tijela i meso s kosti njihovih.
³ They eat the flesh of my people, and flay their skin from them, and break their bones. They chop them in pieces like flesh in a kettle, and like meat in a caldron.	³ Oni proždiru tijelo moga naroda i deru mu kožu, lome kosti. Oni ih komadaju kao u loncu, kao meso u punom kotlu!
⁴ When they cry to the LORD, he shall not answer them; Rather shall he hide his face from them at that time, because of the evil they have done.	⁴ Zato, oni će Jahvu zazivati, a on im neće odgovoriti. Sakrit će, u ono vrijeme, lice od njih zbog zločina koje su počinili.«
⁵ Thus says the LORD regarding the prophets who lead my people astray; Who, when their teeth have something to bite, announce peace, But when one fails to put something in their mouth, proclaim war against him.	⁵ Ovako govori Jahve protiv prorokâ koji moj narod zavode: »Ako imaju zalogaj u zubima, proglašuju: ‘Mir!’ Ali protiv onoga koji im ništa ne stavlja u usta naviještaju sveti rat.«
⁶ Therefore you shall have night, not vision, darkness, not divination; The sun shall go down upon the prophets, and the day shall be dark for them.	⁶ Zato ćete imati noć mjesto vaših viđenja i tminu mjesto proricanja. Zaći će sunce tim prorocima i dan će za njih pomrčati.
⁷ Then shall the seers be put to shame, and the diviners confounded; They shall cover their lips, all of them, because there is no answer from God.	⁷ Tada će se posramiti vidovnjaci i zblaniti vračari. Svi će oni pokriti gubice, jer odgovora Božjeg neće biti.
⁸ But as for me, I am filled with power, with the spirit of the LORD, with authority and with might; To declare to Jacob his crimes and to Israel his sins.	⁸ Ali ja sam pun snage i duha Jahvina, pun pravde i jakosti da objavim Jakovu opačinu njegovu, Izraelu njegov grijeh.
⁹ Hear this, you leaders of the house of Jacob, you rulers of the house of Israel! You who abhor what is just, and pervert all that is right;	⁹ Čujte dakle ovo, glavari kuće Jakovljeve, suci doma Izraelova, vi kojima se pravda gadi te izvrćete sve što je ispravno!
¹⁰ Who build up Zion with bloodshed, and Jerusalem with wickedness!	¹⁰ Vi koji gradite Sion u krvi i Jeruzalem u zločinu!
¹¹ Her leaders render judgment for a bribe, her priests give decisions for a salary, her prophets divine for money, While they rely on the LORD, saying, "Is not the LORD in the midst of us? No evil can come upon us!"	¹¹ Glavari njegovi sude prema mitu, svećenici njegovi poučavaju radi zarade, proroci njegovi bale za novac. A na Jahvu se oni pozivaju i govore: »Nije li Jahve u našoj sredini? Neće na nas zlo navaliti.«
¹² Therefore, because of you, Zion shall be plowed like a field, and Jerusalem reduced to rubble, And the mount of the temple to a forest ridge.	¹² Poradi vas i vaše krivnje Sion će biti polje preorano, Jeruzalem ruševina, a goru Doma prekrit će šuma.
