WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)

1 Prođite po ulicama jerusalimskim, i vidite sada i razberite i potražite po ulicama njegovim, hoćete li naći čoveka, ima li ko da čini što je pravo i da traži istinu, pa ću oprostiti.

1 “Run back and forth through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in its wide places, if you can find a man, if there is anyone who does justly, who seeks truth, then I will pardon her.

2 Ako i govore: Tako da je živ Gospod! Opet se krivo kunu.

2 Though they say, ‘As Yahweh lives,’ surely they swear falsely.”

3 Gospode! Ne gledaju li oči Tvoje na istinu! Biješ ih, ali ih ne boli; satireš ih, ali neće da prime nauke, tvrđe im je lice od kamena, neće da se obrate.

3 O Yahweh, don’t your eyes look on truth? You have stricken them, but they were not grieved. You have consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction. They have made their faces harder than a rock. They have refused to return.

4 I ja rekoh: Siromasi su, ludo rade, jer ne znaju put Gospodnji, zakon Boga svog.

4 Then I said, “Surely these are poor. They are foolish; for they don’t know Yahweh’s way, nor the law of their God.

5 Idem k vlasteljima, i njima ću govoriti, jer oni znaju put Gospodnji, zakon Boga svog; ali i oni izlomiše jaram, pokidaše sveze.

5 I will go to the great men and will speak to them, for they know the way of Yahweh, and the law of their God.” But these with one accord have broken the yoke, and burst the bonds.

6 Za to će ih pobiti lav iz šume, vuk će ih večernji potrti, ris će vrebati kod gradova njihovih, ko god iziđe iz njih biće rastrgnut, jer je mnogo greha njihovih i silni su odmeti njihovi.

6 Therefore a lion out of the forest will kill them. A wolf of the evenings will destroy them. A leopard will watch against their cities. Everyone who goes out there will be torn in pieces, because their transgressions are many and their backsliding has increased.

7 Kako ću ti oprostiti to? Sinovi tvoji ostaviše mene, i kunu se onima koji nisu bogovi. Kako ih nasitih, stadoše činiti preljubu, i u kuću kurvinu stiču se gomilom.

7 “How can I pardon you? Your children have forsaken me, and sworn by what are no gods. When I had fed them to the full, they committed adultery, and assembled themselves in troops at the prostitutes’ houses.

8 Jutrom su kad ustaju kao tovni konji, svaki rže za ženom bližnjeg svog.

8 They were as fed horses roaming at large. Everyone neighed after his neighbor’s wife.

9 Za to li neću pohoditi? Veli Gospod, i duša moja neće li se osvetiti takvom narodu?

9 Shouldn’t I punish them for these things?” says Yahweh. “Shouldn’t my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?

10 Izađite mu na zidove i razvalite, ali nemojte sasvim zatrti, skinite mu prevornice, jer nisu Gospodnje.

10 “Go up on her walls, and destroy, but don’t make a full end. Take away her branches, for they are not Yahweh’s.

11 Jer me sasvim izneveri dom Izrailjev i dom Judin, veli Gospod.

11 For the house of Israel and the house of Judah have dealt very treacherously against me,” says Yahweh.

12 Udariše u bah Gospodu i rekoše: Nije tako, neće nas zlo zadesiti, i nećemo videti mača ni gladi.

12 They have denied Yahweh, and said, “It is not he. Evil won’t come on us. We won’t see sword or famine.

13 A ti proroci otići će u vetar, i reči nema u njima, njima će biti tako.

13 The prophets will become wind, and the word is not in them. Thus it will be done to them.”

14 Zato ovako veli Gospod Gospod nad vojskama: Kad tako govorite, evo ja ću učiniti da reči moje u ustima tvojim budu kao oganj, a ovaj narod drva, te će ih spaliti.

14 Therefore Yahweh, the God of Armies says, “Because you speak this word, behold, I will make my words in your mouth fire, and this people wood, and it will devour them.

15 Gle, ja ću dovesti na vas narod iz daleka, dome Izrailjev, veli Gospod, narod jak, narod star, narod kome jezika nećeš znati niti ćeš razumeti šta govori;

15 Behold, I will bring a nation on you from far away, house of Israel,” says Yahweh. “It is a mighty nation. It is an ancient nation, a nation whose language you don’t know and don’t understand what they say.

16 Kome je tul kao grob otvoren, svi su jaki.

16 Their quiver is an open tomb. They are all mighty men.

17 I poješće letinu tvoju i hleb tvoj, što sinovi tvoji i kćeri tvoje hteše jesti, poješće ovce tvoje i goveda tvoja, poješće vinovu lozu tvoju i smokve tvoje, i mačem će zatrti tvrde gradove tvoje u koje se uzdaš.

17 They will eat up your harvest and your bread, which your sons and your daughters should eat. They will eat up your flocks and your herds. They will eat up your vines and your fig trees. They will beat down your fortified cities in which you trust with the sword.

18 Ali ni tada, veli Gospod, neću vas sasvim zatrti.

18 “But even in those days,” says Yahweh, “I will not make a full end of you.

19 Jer kad kažete: Zašto nam čini Gospod Bog naš sve ovo? Tada im reci: Kako ostaviste mene i služiste tuđim bogovima u zemlji svojoj, tako ćete služiti tuđincima u zemlji koja nije vaša.

19 It will happen when you say, ‘Why has Yahweh our God done all these things to us?’ Then you shall say to them, ‘Just as you have forsaken me and served foreign gods in your land, so you will serve strangers in a land that is not yours.’

20 Javite ovo u domu Jakovljevom, i oglasite u Judi, govoreći:

20 “Declare this in the house of Jacob, and publish it in Judah, saying,

21 Čujte ovo, ludi i bezumni narode, koji imate oči, a ne vidite, koji imate uši, a ne čujete.

21 ‘Hear this now, foolish people without understanding, who have eyes, and don’t see, who have ears, and don’t hear:

22 Mene li se nećete bojati? Veli Gospod; od mene li nećete drhtati? Koji postavih pesak moru za među večnom naredbom, i neće preći preko nje; ako mu i ustaju vali, neće nadjačati, ako i buče, neće je preći.

22 Don’t you fear me?’ says Yahweh; ‘Won’t you tremble at my presence, who have placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it can’t pass it? Though its waves toss themselves, yet they can’t prevail. Though they roar, they still can’t pass over it.’

23 Ali je u naroda ovog srce uporno i nepokorno; odstupiše i otidoše.

23 “But this people has a revolting and a rebellious heart. They have revolted and gone.

24 Niti rekoše u srcu svom: Bojmo se Gospoda Boga svog, koji nam daje dažd rani i pozni na vreme, i čuva nam nedelje određene za žetvu.

24 They don’t say in their heart, ‘Let’s now fear Yahweh our God, who gives rain, both the former and the latter, in its season, who preserves to us the appointed weeks of the harvest.’

25 Bezakonja vaša odvraćaju to, i gresi vaši odbijaju dobro od vas.

25 “Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withheld good from you.

26 Jer se nalaze u narodu mom bezbožnici, koji vrebaju kao ptičari kad se pritaje, meću zamke da hvataju ljude.

26 For wicked men are found among my people. They watch, as fowlers lie in wait. They set a trap. They catch men.

27 Kao krletka puna ptica tako su kuće njihove pune prevare; zato postaše veliki i obogatiše.

27 As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit. Therefore they have become great, and grew rich.

28 Ugojiše se, sjaju se, mimoilaze zlo, ne čine pravde ni siročetu, i opet im je dobro, i ne daju pravice ubogima.

28 They have grown fat. They shine; yes, they excel in deeds of wickedness. They don’t plead the cause, the cause of the fatherless, that they may prosper; and they don’t defend the rights of the needy.

29 Zato li neću pohoditi? Veli Gospod, i duša moja neće li se osvetiti takvom narodu?

29 “Shouldn’t I punish for these things?” says Yahweh. “Shouldn’t my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?

30 Čudo i strahota biva u zemlji.

30 “An astonishing and horrible thing has happened in the land.

31 Proroci prorokuju lažno, i sveštenici gospoduju preko njih, i narodu je mom to milo. A šta ćete raditi na posledak?

31 The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests rule by their own authority; and my people love to have it so. What will you do in the end of it?

What the Fathers said

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).
