Плачът на Йеремия 1
Библия, нов превод от оригиналните езици (с неканоничните книги)
Скръб за разорения Йерусалим
1 (A) [a] Как седи усамотен градът, някога тъй многолюден!
Стана като вдовица. Великата столица между народите,
княгинята сред областите стана поданица.
2 (B)Горко плаче тя нощем и сълзите ѝ са по бузите ѝ.
Измежду всичките ѝ любовници няма кой да я утеши.
Всички нейни приятели ѝ изневериха, станаха нейни врагове.
3 Юда отиде и се пресели поради бедствие и тежко робство.
Живее между езичници, не намира покой.
Всички, които го преследваха, го настигнаха в теснини.
4 (C)Пътищата към Сион тъгуват, защото няма кой да отива на празници.
Всичките му порти запустяха. Свещениците му въздишат,
девиците му са печални. Горко и на самия него!
5 (D)Враговете му го покориха, неприятелите му плячкосват,
защото Господ му изпрати скърби поради многото му беззакония;
децата му бяха подкарани в плен пред противника.
6 И беше взето от Сионовата дъщеря цялото ѝ великолепие.
Първенците ѝ са като елени, които не намират пасища.
Изтощени, те не можеха да избягат от преследвача.
7 В дните на бедността и на лишението от дом Йерусалим си спомни
за всички свои съкровища, каквито имаше в предишни дни.
Когато народът му падна във вража ръка, никой от неговите съюзници не му помогна.
Враговете му злорадстват и се надсмиват за неговото опустошение.
8 (E)Йерусалим тежко съгреши. Затова стана за отвращение.
Всички, които го прославяха, го презряха, защото видяха голотата му.
И сам той въздиша и се обръща назад в посрама.
9 По полата му беше нечистотата му, но той не помисляше за следствието от греха си
и се унизи много, и няма кой да го утеши.
„Погледни, Господи, моето бедствие, казва той, понеже врагът ми се е възгордял!“
10 (F)Врагът простря ръка върху всичките му скъпоценности.
Той вижда в ужас как езичници навлизат в светилището на Господа,
за което Ти си заповядал да не влизат в Твоето събрание.
11 Целият му народ въздиша, търсейки хляб,
дава ценности за храна, за да запази живота си.
„Погледни, Господи, и виж колко съм унизен!“
12 (G)Вие, които минавате по пътя, дано не ви сполети подобно нещо!
Погледнете и вижте, има ли болка като моята болка,
каквато ме е сполетяла,
каквато Господ ми изпрати в деня на пламенния Си гняв?
13 Той изпрати отгоре огън в костите ми, който ги обхвана;
постави клопка за краката ми, повали ме, направи ме да бедствам,
направи ме пуст и да боледувам всеки ден.
14 (H)Ярема на беззаконията ми Той
стегна около шията ми.
Те се сплетоха и се струпаха на врата ми.
Той отслаби силите ми.
Господ ме предаде в ръцете на ония,
на които не мога да противостоя.
15 (I)Господ повали всред мене всички мои храбри мъже,
свика против мене събрание, за да унищожи младите ми воини.
Като в лин Господ стъпка девицата, дъщерята на Юда.
16 Затова аз плача. Окото ми, окото ми вода излива,
понеже е далече от мене утешител,
който би оживил душата ми.
Жителите ми са съсипани, понеже врагът надделя.
17 Сион простира ръцете си, но няма кой да го утеши.
Господ даде заповед срещу Яков съседите му да станат негови врагове.
Йерусалим стана нечистота посред тях.
18 Справедлив е Господ, защото се разбунтувах срещу словото Му.
Чуйте, всички народи, и погледнете моята болка!
Момичетата и младежите ми бяха взети в плен.
19 Зова любовниците си, но те ме излъгаха.
Свещениците ми и старците ми умират от глад в града,
когато си търсят храна, за да запазят живота си.
20 (J)Погледни, Господи, защото съм в беда. Вътрешността ми се вълнува.
Сърцето ми се обърна в мене, задето Ти се противопоставих упорито.
По улицата мечът ме лиши от деца, а вкъщи – владее смърт.
21 Чуха, че стена, а утешител нямам.
Чуха всичките ми врагове за моята неволя и се зарадваха, че Ти си сторил това.
О, да би привел деня, който Ти възвести, и те да станеха като мене!
22 Нека се разкрие пред лицето Ти цялата им порочност.
И постъпи с тях, както постъпи с мене поради всичките ми грехове,
защото са тежки моите стенания и сърцето ми изнемогва.

New American Bible (Revised Edition)
Chapter 1
The Desolation of Jerusalem[a]
1 How solitary sits the city,
once filled with people.
She who was great among the nations
is now like a widow.
Once a princess among the provinces,
now a toiling slave.
2 She weeps incessantly in the night,
her cheeks damp with tears.
She has no one to comfort her
from all her lovers;[b]
Her friends have all betrayed her,
and become her enemies.(A)
3 Judah has gone into exile,
after oppression and harsh labor;
She dwells among the nations,
yet finds no rest:(B)
All her pursuers overtake her
in the narrow straits.
4 The roads to Zion mourn,
empty of pilgrims to her feasts.
All her gateways are desolate,
her priests groan,
Her young women grieve;
her lot is bitter.(C)
5 Her foes have come out on top,
her enemies are secure;
Because the Lord has afflicted her
for her many rebellions.
Her children have gone away,
captive before the foe.
6 From daughter Zion has gone
all her glory:
Her princes have become like rams
that find no pasture.
They have gone off exhausted
before their pursuers.
7 Jerusalem remembers
in days of wretched homelessness,
All the precious things she once had
in days gone by.
But when her people fell into the hands of the foe,
and she had no help,
Her foes looked on and laughed
at her collapse.
8 Jerusalem has sinned grievously,
therefore she has become a mockery;
Those who honored her now demean her,
for they saw her nakedness;
She herself groans out loud,
and turns away.(D)
9 Her uncleanness is on her skirt;
she has no thought of her future.
Her downfall is astonishing,
with no one to comfort her.
“Look, O Lord, at my misery;
how the enemy triumphs!”[c]
10 The foe stretched out his hands
to all her precious things;
She has seen the nations
enter her sanctuary,
Those you forbade to come
into your assembly.(E)
11 All her people groan,
searching for bread;
They give their precious things for food,
to retain the breath of life.
“Look, O Lord, and pay attention
to how I have been demeaned!
12 Come, all who pass by the way,
pay attention and see:
Is there any pain like my pain,
which has been ruthlessly inflicted upon me,
With which the Lord has tormented me
on the day of his blazing wrath?
13 From on high he hurled fire down
into my very bones;
He spread out a net for my feet,
and turned me back.
He has left me desolate,
in misery all day long.(F)
14 The yoke of my rebellions is bound together,
fastened by his hand.
His yoke is upon my neck;
he has made my strength fail.
The Lord has delivered me into the grip
of those I cannot resist.
15 All my valiant warriors
my Lord has cast away;
He proclaimed a feast against me
to crush my young men;
My Lord has trodden in the wine press
virgin daughter Judah.
16 For these things I weep—My eyes! My eyes!
They stream with tears!
How far from me is anyone to comfort,
anyone to restore my life.
My children are desolate;
the enemy has prevailed.”(G)
17 Zion stretches out her hands,
with no one to comfort her;
The Lord has ordered against Jacob
his foes all around;
Jerusalem has become in their midst
a thing unclean.
18 “The Lord is in the right;
I had defied his command.
Listen, all you peoples,
and see my pain:
My young women and young men
have gone into captivity.(H)
19 I cried out to my lovers,
but they failed me.(I)
My priests and my elders
perished in the city;
How desperately they searched for food,
to save their lives!
20 Look, O Lord, at the anguish I suffer!
My stomach churns,
And my heart recoils within me:
How bitter I am!
Outside the sword bereaves—
indoors, there is death.(J)
21 Hear how I am groaning;
there is no one to comfort me.
All my enemies hear of my misery and rejoice
over what you have done.
Bring on the day you proclaimed,
and let them become like me!
22 Let all their evil come before you
and deal with them
As you have so ruthlessly dealt with me
for all my rebellions.
My groans are many,
my heart is sick.”(K)
Footnotes
- 1:1–22 In this poem the poet first takes on the persona of an observer describing Jerusalem’s abject state after the destruction wrought by the Babylonian army (vv. 1–11a); but the detached tone gives way to a more impassioned appeal when the city itself—personified as the grieving widow and mother Zion—abruptly intrudes upon this description (vv. 9c, 11c–16, 18–22) to demand that God look squarely at her misery.
- 1:2 Lovers: language of love was typically used to describe the relationship between treaty partners, thus here it connotes Judah’s allies (see v. 19).
- 1:9 Zion breaks in on the poet’s description in v. 9c, albeit briefly, to demand that the Lord face squarely her misery. She takes up the lament in a more sustained fashion in v. 11c.

Jerusalem in Affliction
1 How lonely sits the city
That was full of people!
(A)How like a widow is she,
Who was great among the nations!
The (B)princess among the provinces
Has become a [a]slave!
2 She (C)weeps bitterly in the (D)night,
Her tears are on her cheeks;
Among all her lovers
She has none to comfort her.
All her friends have dealt treacherously with her;
They have become her enemies.
3 (E)Judah has gone into captivity,
Under affliction and hard servitude;
(F)She dwells among the [b]nations,
She finds no (G)rest;
All her persecutors overtake her in dire straits.
4 The roads to Zion mourn
Because no one comes to the [c]set feasts.
All her gates are (H)desolate;
Her priests sigh,
Her virgins are afflicted,
And she is in bitterness.
5 Her adversaries (I)have become [d]the master,
Her enemies prosper;
For the Lord has afflicted her
(J)Because of the multitude of her transgressions.
Her (K)children have gone into captivity before the enemy.
6 And from the daughter of Zion
All her splendor has departed.
Her princes have become like deer
That find no pasture,
That [e]flee without strength
Before the pursuer.
7 In the days of her affliction and roaming,
Jerusalem (L)remembers all her pleasant things
That she had in the days of old.
When her people fell into the hand of the enemy,
With no one to help her,
The adversaries saw her
And mocked at her [f]downfall.
8 (M)Jerusalem has sinned gravely,
Therefore she has become [g]vile.
All who honored her despise her
Because (N)they have seen her nakedness;
Yes, she sighs and turns away.
9 Her uncleanness is in her skirts;
She (O)did not consider her destiny;
Therefore her collapse was awesome;
She had no comforter.
“O Lord, behold my affliction,
For the enemy is exalted!”
10 The adversary has spread his hand
Over all her [h]pleasant things;
For she has seen (P)the nations enter her [i]sanctuary,
Those whom You commanded
(Q)Not to enter Your assembly.
11 All her people sigh,
(R)They [j]seek bread;
They have given their [k]valuables for food to restore life.
“See, O Lord, and consider,
For I am scorned.”
12 “Is it nothing to you, all you who [l]pass by?
Behold and see
(S)If there is any sorrow like my sorrow,
Which has been brought on me,
Which the Lord has inflicted
In the day of His fierce anger.
13 “From above He has sent fire into my bones,
And it overpowered them;
He has (T)spread a net for my feet
And turned me back;
He has made me desolate
And faint all the day.
14 “The(U) yoke of my transgressions was [m]bound;
They were woven together by His hands,
And thrust upon my neck.
He made my strength fail;
The Lord delivered me into the hands of those whom I am not able to withstand.
15 “The Lord has trampled underfoot all my mighty men in my midst;
He has called an assembly against me
To crush my young men;
(V)The Lord trampled as in a winepress
The virgin daughter of Judah.
16 “For these things I weep;
My eye, (W)my eye overflows with water;
Because the comforter, who should restore my life,
Is far from me.
My children are desolate
Because the enemy prevailed.”
17 (X)Zion [n]spreads out her hands,
But no one comforts her;
The Lord has commanded concerning Jacob
That those (Y)around him become his adversaries;
Jerusalem has become an unclean thing among them.
18 “The Lord is (Z)righteous,
For I (AA)rebelled against His [o]commandment.
Hear now, all peoples,
And behold my sorrow;
My virgins and my young men
Have gone into captivity.
19 “I called for my lovers,
But they deceived me;
My priests and my elders
Breathed their last in the city,
While they sought food
To restore their life.
20 “See, O Lord, that I am in distress;
My (AB)soul[p] is troubled;
My heart is overturned within me,
For I have been very rebellious.
(AC)Outside the sword bereaves,
At home it is like death.
21 “They have heard that I sigh,
But no one comforts me.
All my enemies have heard of my trouble;
They are (AD)glad that You have done it.
Bring on (AE)the day You have [q]announced,
That they may become like me.
22 “Let(AF) all their wickedness come before You,
And do to them as You have done to me
For all my transgressions;
For my sighs are many,
And my heart is faint.”
