Chapter 2
1
Opet mi dođe reč Gospodnja govoreći:
2
Idi i viči Jerusalimu da čuje i govori: Ovako veli Gospod:
Opominjem te se po milosti u mladosti tvojoj
i po ljubavi o veridbi tvojoj,
kad iđaše za mnom po pustinji,
i po zemlji gde se ne seje.
3
Izrailj beše svetinja Gospodu
i prvina od rodova Njegovih;
koji je jeđahu svi behu krivi,
zlo dolažaše na njih,
veli Gospod.
4
Čujte reč Gospodnju, dome Jakovljev i sve porodice doma Izrailjevog.
5
Ovako veli Gospod:
Kakvu nepravdu nađoše oci vaši u mene,
te odstupiše od mene,
i pristaše za ništavilom,
i postaše ništavi?
6
I ne rekoše:
Gde je Gospod koji nas je izveo iz zemlje misirske,
koji nas je vodio po pustinji,
po zemlji pustoj i punoj propasti,
po zemlji suvoj i gde je sen smrtni,
po zemlji preko koje niko nije hodio
i u kojoj niko nije živeo?
7
I kad vas dovedoh u zemlju rodnu
da jedete rod njen i dobra njena,
došavši oskvrniste zemlju moju
i od nasledstva mog načiniste gad.
8
Sveštenici ne rekoše:
Gde je Gospod?
I koji se bave zakonom ne poznaše me,
i pastiri odustaše me,
i proroci prorokovaše Valom
i idoše za stvarima zaludnim.
9
Za to ću se još preti s vama, veli Gospod,
i sa sinovima sinova vaših preću se.
10
Jer prođite ostrva kitimska i vidite
i pošljite u Kidar, i razgledajte dobro,
i vidite, je li bilo takvo šta:
11
Je li koji narod promenio bogove, ako i nisu bogovi?
A moj narod promeni slavu svoju na stvar zaludnu.
12
Čudite se tome, nebesa,
i zgrozite se i upropastite se!
Veli Gospod.
13
Jer dva zla učini moj narod:
ostaviše mene, izvor žive vode,
i iskopaše sebi studence,
studence isprovaljivane,
koji ne mogu da drže vode.
14
Je li Izrailj rob?
Je li rob u kući rođen?
Zašto posta grabež?
15
Rikaše na nj lavići i dizaše glas svoj,
i obratiše zemlju njegovu u pustoš;
gradovi su mu popaljeni,
te nema nikoga da živi u njima.
16
I sinovi nofski i tafneski opasoše ti teme.
17
Nisi li to sam sebi učinio
ostavivši Gospoda Boga svog kad te vođaše putem?
18
A sada šta će ti put misirski da piješ vode siorske?
Šta li će ti put asirski da piješ vode iz reke?
19
Tvoja će te zloća pokarati
i tvoje će te odmetanje prekoriti.
Poznaj dakle i vidi
da je zlo i gorko što si ostavio Gospoda Boga svog
i što nema straha mog u tebi,
veli Gospod Gospod nad vojskama.
20
Jer davno izlomih jaram tvoj
i raskidoh sveze tvoje,
i ti reče: Neću biti sluga;
a na svaki visoki hum i pod svako zeleno drvo ideš da se kurvaš.
21
Ja te posadih, lozu izabranu, sve seme istinito;
pa kako mi se promeni i izmetnu se odvoda od tuđe loze?
22
Da se izmiješ salitrom i uzmeš mnogo sapuna,
opet će se poznavati bezakonje tvoje preda mnom,
veli Gospod Gospod.
23
Kako možeš reći:
Nisam se oskvrnio,
nisam išao za Valima?
Pogledaj put svoj po dolu;
poznaj šta si učinila, brza kamilo,
koja ostavljaš znake na svojim putevima.
24
Kao divlja magarica,
koja je navikla na pustinju
i po želji duše svoje vuče u se vetar,
kad navali, ko će je vratiti?
Koji je traže neće se umoriti,
naći će je u mesecu njenom.
25
Čuvaj nogu svoju, da nije bosa,
i grlo svoje, da ne žedni.
Ali ti veliš:
Od toga nema ništa;
ne, jer ljubim tuđe, i za njima ću ići.
26
Kao što se lupež posrami kad se uhvati,
tako će se posramiti dom Izrailjev,
oni, carevi njihovi, knezovi njihovi, i sveštenici njihovi i proroci njihovi,
27
Koji govore drvetu: Ti si otac moj;
i kamenu: Ti si me rodio;
jer mi okrenuše leđa, a ne lice;
a kad su u nevolji govore: Ustani i izbavi nas.
28
A gde su bogovi tvoji koje si načinio sebi?
Neka ustanu, ako te mogu izbaviti kad si u nevolji,
jer imaš, Juda, bogova koliko gradova.
29
Zašto hoćete da se pravdate sa mnom?
Vi ste se svi odmetnuli od mene,
veli Gospod.
30
Uzalud bih sinove vaše, ne primiše nauke;
mač vaš proždre proroke vaše kao lav koji davi.
31
O rode! Vidite reč Gospodnju;
bejah li pustinja Izrailju ili mračna zemlja?
Zašto govori moj narod:
Gospodari smo, nećemo više doći k tebi?
32
Zaboravlja li devojka svoj nakit i nevesta ures svoj?
A narod moj zaboravi me toliko dana da im nema broja.
33
Zašto govoriš da je dobar tvoj put tražeći šta ljubiš?
Pa si i nevaljale žene naučio svojim putevima.
34
I još na skutovima tvojim nalazi se krv siromaha pravih;
ne nalazim kopajući, nego je na svima njima.
35
A ti govoriš: Nisam kriv,
gnev se Njegov odvratio od mene.
Evo ja ću se preti s tobom
što govoriš: Nisam zgrešio.
36
Zašto trčkaš tako menjajući svoj put?
Posramićeš se od Misirca kako si se posramio od Asirca.
37
Otići ćeš i odatle s rukama nad glavom svojom,
jer Gospod odbacuje uzdanice tvoje,
i nećeš biti srećan u njima.
Jeremiah
Chapter 2
1
Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2
Go and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, Thus saith the LORD; I remember thee, the kindness of thy youth, the love of thine espousals, when thou wentest after me in the wilderness, in a land that was not sown.
3
Israel was holiness unto the LORD, and the firstfruits of his increase: all that devour him shall offend; evil shall come upon them, saith the LORD.
4
Hear ye the word of the LORD, O house of Jacob, and all the families of the house of Israel:
5
¶ Thus saith the LORD, What iniquity have your fathers found in me, that they are gone far from me, and have walked after vanity, and are become vain?
6
Neither said they, Where is the LORD that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, that led us through the wilderness, through a land of deserts and of pits, through a land of drought, and of the shadow of death, through a land that no man passed through, and where no man dwelt?
7
And I brought you into a plentiful country, to eat the fruit thereof and the goodness thereof; but when ye entered, ye defiled my land, and made mine heritage an abomination.
8
The priests said not, Where is the LORD? and they that handle the law knew me not: the pastors also transgressed against me, and the prophets prophesied by Baal, and walked after things that do not profit.
9
¶ Wherefore I will yet plead with you, saith the LORD, and with your children’s children will I plead.
10
For pass over the isles of Chittim, and see; and send unto Kedar, and consider diligently, and see if there be such a thing.
11
Hath a nation changed their gods, which are yet no gods? but my people have changed their glory for that which doth not profit.
12
Be astonished, O ye heavens, at this, and be horribly afraid, be ye very desolate, saith the LORD.
13
For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.
14
¶ Is Israel a servant? is he a homeborn slave? why is he spoiled?
15
The young lions roared upon him, and yelled, and they made his land waste: his cities are burned without inhabitant.
16
Also the children of Noph and Tahapanes have broken the crown of thy head.
17
Hast thou not procured this unto thyself, in that thou hast forsaken the LORD thy God, when he led thee by the way?
18
And now what hast thou to do in the way of Egypt, to drink the waters of Sihor? or what hast thou to do in the way of Assyria, to drink the waters of the river?
19
Thine own wickedness shall correct thee, and thy backslidings shall reprove thee: know therefore and see that it is an evil thing and bitter, that thou hast forsaken the LORD thy God, and that my fear is not in thee, saith the Lord GOD of hosts.
20
¶ For of old time I have broken thy yoke, and burst thy bands; and thou saidst, I will not transgress; when upon every high hill and under every green tree thou wanderest, playing the harlot.
21
Yet I had planted thee a noble vine, wholly a right seed: how then art thou turned into the degenerate plant of a strange vine unto me?
22
For though thou wash thee with nitre, and take thee much soap, yet thine iniquity is marked before me, saith the Lord GOD.
23
How canst thou say, I am not polluted, I have not gone after Baalim? see thy way in the valley, know what thou hast done: thou art a swift dromedary traversing her ways;
24
A wild ass used to the wilderness, that snuffeth up the wind at her pleasure; in her occasion who can turn her away? all they that seek her will not weary themselves; in her month they shall find her.
25
Withhold thy foot from being unshod, and thy throat from thirst: but thou saidst, There is no hope: no; for I have loved strangers, and after them will I go.
26
As the thief is ashamed when he is found, so is the house of Israel ashamed; they, their kings, their princes, and their priests, and their prophets,
27
Saying to a stock, Thou art my father; and to a stone, Thou hast brought me forth: for they have turned their back unto me, and not their face: but in the time of their trouble they will say, Arise, and save us.
28
But where are thy gods that thou hast made thee? let them arise, if they can save thee in the time of thy trouble: for according to the number of thy cities are thy gods, O Judah.
29
Wherefore will ye plead with me? ye all have transgressed against me, saith the LORD.
30
In vain have I smitten your children; they received no correction: your own sword hath devoured your prophets, like a destroying lion.
31
¶ O generation, see ye the word of the LORD. Have I been a wilderness unto Israel? a land of darkness? wherefore say my people, We are lords; we will come no more unto thee?
32
Can a maid forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? yet my people have forgotten me days without number.
33
Why trimmest thou thy way to seek love? therefore hast thou also taught the wicked ones thy ways.
34
Also in thy skirts is found the blood of the souls of the poor innocents: I have not found it by secret search, but upon all these.
35
Yet thou sayest, Because I am innocent, surely his anger shall turn from me. Behold, I will plead with thee, because thou sayest, I have not sinned.
36
Why gaddest thou about so much to change thy way? thou also shalt be ashamed of Egypt, as thou wast ashamed of Assyria.
37
Yea, thou shalt go forth from him, and thine hands upon thine head: for the LORD hath rejected thy confidences, and thou shalt not prosper in them.
