1 Pravedan si, Gospode, ako bih se pravdao s Tobom; ali ću progovoriti o sudovima Tvojim. Zašto je put bezbožnički srećan? Zašto žive u miru svi koji čine neveru?
1 You are righteous, Yahweh, when I contend with you; yet I would like to plead a case with you. Why does the way of the wicked prosper? Why are they all at ease who deal very treacherously?
2 Ti ih posadi, i oni se ukoreniše, rastu i rod rađaju; Ti si im blizu usta ali daleko od bubrega.
2 You have planted them. Yes, they have taken root. They grow. Yes, they produce fruit. You are near in their mouth, and far from their heart.
3 Ali Gospode, Ti me poznaješ, razgledaš me i okušao si srce moje kako je prema Tebi; odvuci ih kao ovce na klanje, i pripravi ih za dan kad će se ubiti.
3 But you, Yahweh, know me. You see me, and test my heart toward you. Pull them out like sheep for the slaughter, and prepare them for the day of slaughter.
4 Dokle će tužiti zemlja, i trava svega polja sahnuti sa zloće onih koji žive u njoj? Nesta sve stoke i ptica, jer govore: Ne vidi kraja našeg.
4 How long will the land mourn, and the herbs of the whole country wither? Because of the wickedness of those who dwell therein, the animals and birds are consumed; because they said, “He won’t see our latter end.”
5 Kad si trčao s pešacima pa te umoriše, kako ćeš se utrkivati s konjima? I kad ti je tako u zemlji mirnoj, u koju se uzdaš, šta ćeš činiti kad ustane Jordan?
5 “If you have run with the footmen, and they have wearied you, then how can you contend with horses? Though in a land of peace you are secure, yet how will you do in the pride of the Jordan?
6 Jer i braća tvoja i dom oca tvog, i oni te izneveriše i oni viču za tobom glasno. Ne veruj im, ako bi ti i prijateljski govorili.
6 For even your brothers, and the house of your father, even they have dealt treacherously with you! Even they have cried aloud after you! Don’t believe them, though they speak beautiful words to you.
7 Ostavih dom svoj, napustih nasledstvo svoje; što beše milo duši mojoj, dadoh ga u ruke neprijateljima njegovim.
7 “I have forsaken my house. I have cast off my heritage. I have given the dearly beloved of my soul into the hand of her enemies.
8 Nasledstvo moje posta mi kao lav u šumi, pušta glas svoj na mene, zato mi omrznu.
8 My heritage has become to me as a lion in the forest. She has uttered her voice against me. Therefore I have hated her.
9 Nasledstvo moje posta mi ptica grabljiva; ptice, sletite se na nju, skupite se svi zverovi poljski, hodite da jedete.
9 Is my heritage to me as a speckled bird of prey? Are the birds of prey against her all around? Go, assemble all the animals of the field. Bring them to devour.
10 Pastiri mnogi pokvariće moj vinograd, potlačiće deo moj, mili deo moj obratiće u golu pustoš.
10 Many shepherds have destroyed my vineyard. They have trodden my portion under foot. They have made my pleasant portion a desolate wilderness.
11 Obratiće ga u pustoš, opustošen plakaće preda mnom; sva će ta zemlja opusteti, jer niko ne uzima na um.
11 They have made it a desolation. It mourns to me, being desolate. The whole land is made desolate, because no one cares.
12 Na sva visoka mesta po pustinji doći će zatirači; jer će mač Gospodnji proždirati od jednog kraja zemlje do drugog, neće biti mira ni jednom telu.
12 Destroyers have come on all the bare heights in the wilderness; for the sword of Yahweh devours from the one end of the land even to the other end of the land. No flesh has peace.
13 Sejaće pšenicu, a trnje će žeti; mučiće se, a koristi neće imati, i stideće se letine svoje, sa žestokog gneva Gospodnjeg.
13 They have sown wheat, and have reaped thorns. They have exhausted themselves, and profit nothing. You will be ashamed of your fruits, because of Yahweh’s fierce anger.”
14 Ovako govori Gospod za sve zle susede moje, koji diraju nasledstvo što dadoh narodu svom Izrailju: evo, ja ću ih počupati iz zemlje njihove, i dom Judin iščupaću isred njih.
14 Yahweh says, “Concerning all my evil neighbors, who touch the inheritance which I have caused my people Israel to inherit: Behold, I will pluck them up from off their land, and will pluck up the house of Judah from among them.
15 A kad ih iščupam, opet ću se smilovati na njih, i dovešću opet svakog njih na nasledstvo njegovo i svakog u zemlju njegovu.
15 It will happen that after I have plucked them up, I will return and have compassion on them. I will bring them again, every man to his heritage, and every man to his land.
16 I ako dobro nauče puteve naroda mog, da se zaklinju mojim imenom: Tako da je živ Gospod! Kao što su oni učili moj narod da se kune Valom, tada će se sazidati usred naroda mog.
16 It will happen, if they will diligently learn the ways of my people, to swear by my name, ‘As Yahweh lives;’ even as they taught my people to swear by Baal, then they will be built up in the middle of my people.
17 Ako li ne poslušaju, tada ću iščupati sasvim takav narod i zatrti, govori Gospod.
17 But if they will not hear, then I will pluck up that nation, plucking up and destroying it,” says Yahweh.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Respecting such it is said in another place by the prophet, "They have sown wheat, but shall reap thorns;" because they teach what is good, and do what is evil.

and the Lord Himself says in the Prophets, Mine heritage became unto Me as a lion in the forest; it gave its voice against Me; therefore have I hated it.
