Jeremiáš 11

1 Slovo, kteréž se stalo k Jeremiášovi od Hospodina, řkoucí:

This is [another] message that Yahweh told me:

2 Slyšte slova smlouvy této, kteráž byste mluvili mužům Judským, a obyvatelům Jeruzalémským,

“Listen to the agreement that I made with [the ancestors of] the people of Jerusalem and [the other cities in] Judah. Then remind them of [that agreement].

3 A rci jim: Takto praví Hospodin Bůh Izraelský: Zlořečený ten člověk, kterýž by neposlechl slov smlouvy této,

Then tell them that [I], Yahweh, the God whom the Israeli [people worship], said that I will curse everyone who does not obey what was written in that agreement that I made with them.

4 Kterouž jsem vydal otcům vašim tehdáž, když jsem je vyvedl z země Egyptské, z peci železné, řka: Poslouchejte hlasu mého, a čiňte to všecko, tak jakž přikazuji vám, i budete lidem mým, a já budu Bohem vaším,

It is the same agreement that I made with their ancestors when I brought them out of Egypt. [What happened to them in Egypt was terrible; it was as though they were] living in a hot furnace [MET]. When I brought them out of Egypt, I told them to obey me, and to do everything that I had commanded them to do. [I also told them] that if they obeyed me, they would be my people and I would be their God.

5 Abych splnil přísahu, kterouž jsem učinil otcům vašim, že jim dám zemi oplývající mlékem a strdí, jakž dnešní den jest. Jemuž odpověděv, řekl jsem: Amen, Hospodine.

[Now tell these people that if they obey me], I will do what I promised to do for their ancestors. I will enable them to continue living in this very fertile [IDM] land in which they now live.” I replied, “Yahweh, I hope that what you said will happen.”

6 Potom řekl mi Hospodin: Ohlašuj všecka slova tato po městech Judských, a po ulicích Jeruzalémských, řka: Slyšte slova smlouvy této, a čiňte je.

Then Yahweh said to me, “Go into the streets of Jerusalem and to the [other] cities in Judah. Proclaim my message to the people. Tell them to listen to the agreement [that I made with their ancestors], and to obey it.

7 Nebo častokrát osvědčoval jsem se otcům vašim, od toho dne, jakž jsem je vyvedl z země Egyptské, až do dne tohoto; ráno přivstávaje a osvědčuje se, říkával jsem: Poslouchejte hlasu mého.

When I brought their ancestors out of Egypt, I solemnly pleaded with them many times to obey me, and I am still pleading with them now.

8 Ale neposlouchali, aniž naklonili ucha svého, nýbrž chodil jeden každý po zdání srdce svého zlého. Pročež uvedl jsem na ně všecka slova smlouvy této, kterouž jsem přikázal plniti, ale neplnili.

But they did not obey me or [even] pay any attention to me. Everyone continued to be stubborn and to do the evil things that they wanted to do. I commanded them to do what was written in the agreement, but they refused. So I punished them in all the ways that I promised that I would.”

9 Tehdy řekl mi Hospodin: Nalézá se spiknutí mezi muži Judskými, a mezi obyvateli Jeruzalémskými.

Then Yahweh said to me, “The people of Jerusalem and [the other cities in] Judah are rebelling against me.

10 Obrátili se k nepravostem otců svých starých, kteříž nechtěli poslouchati slov mých. Tolikéž tito chodí za bohy cizími, sloužíce jim; dům Izraelský a dům Judský zrušili smlouvu mou, kterouž jsem učinil s otci jejich.

Their ancestors refused to do what I told them to do, and [now] these people have returned to committing the sins that their ancestors committed. They are worshiping other gods. The people of Israel disobeyed the agreement that I made with their ancestors, and [now] the people of Judah have done the same thing.

11 Protož takto praví Hospodin: Aj, já uvedu na ně zlé, z něhož nebudou moci vyjíti. By pak volali ke mně, nevyslyším jich.

So now I, Yahweh, am warning them that I will cause them to experience disasters, and they will not escape them. And when they cry out for me [to help them], I will not pay attention.

12 I půjdou města Judská i obyvatelé Jeruzalémští, a budou volati k bohům těm, kterýmž kadí, ale nikoli nevysvobodí jich v čas bídy jejich,

When that happens, the people in Jerusalem and [other] cities in Judah will [offer sacrifices and] burn incense to their gods and ask for their help, but those gods will not be able to save them when those disasters come to them.

13 Ačkoli podlé počtu měst máš bohy své, ó Judo, a podlé počtu ulic Jeruzalémských nastavěli jste oltářů ohavnosti té, oltářů, na nichž byste kadili Bálovi.

There are more gods in Judah than there are towns in Judah, and the people of Jerusalem have erected as many altars to burn incense [to those gods] as there are streets in Jerusalem.

14 Protož ty nemodl se za lid tento, aniž pozdvihuj za ně hlasu a modlitby; neboť nikoli nevyslyším jich v ten čas, když by volali ke mně příčinou svého zlého.

Jeremiah, do not pray for these people, and do not plead with me to rescue them. If you plead with me, I will not pay attention; and if they cry out to me for help when they are in distress, I will not listen to them.”

15 Co jest milému mému do mého domu, poněvadž nestydatě páše nešlechetnosti s mnohými, a oběti svaté odešly od tebe, a že v zlosti své pléšeš?

Then Yahweh said, “The people [of Judah] whom I love certainly no longer have [RHQ] a right to come to my temple, because they continually do many evil things. [They think that] continually making sacrifices of meat to me certainly will [RHQ] protect them from disasters, with the result that they will be able to rejoice.

16 Byltě Hospodin nazval jméno tvé olivou zelenající se, pěknou pro ovoce ušlechtilé, ale s zvukem bouře veliké zapálí ji s hůry, když polámí ratolesti její.

I previously said that they were like an olive tree full of green leaves with a lot of good olives on it, but [now I will send their enemies to attack] them furiously; [it is as though] I will break off their branches, and [their city] will be destroyed by fire.

17 Nebo Hospodin zástupů, kterýž tě byl štípil, vyřkl zlé proti tobě, pro nešlechetnost domu Izraelského a domu Judského, kterouž mezi sebou páchali, aby mne popouzeli, kadíce Bálovi.

[It is as though] the people of Judah and Israel were a beautiful olive tree that I, the Commander of the armies of angels, planted, but [now], by burning incense to [their god] Baal, they have caused me to become [very] angry. So [now] I have decided to destroy them.”

18 Hospodin zajisté oznámil mi, i dověděl jsem se. Tehdáž jsi mi ukázal předsevzetí jejich,

Yahweh revealed to me that [my enemies] were planning to kill me.

19 Když jsem já byl jako beránek a volček, kterýž veden bývá k zabití. Nebo nevěděl jsem, by proti mně rady skládali: Zkazme strom s ovocem jeho, a vyhlaďme jej z země živých, aby jméno jeho nebylo připomínáno více.

[Before he did that], I was like a lamb that was being led away to be slaughtered; I did not know what they were planning to do. I did not know that they were saying, “Let’s get rid of this tree and its fruit,” so [I did not know] that they intended to kill me, in order that no one would remember me [MTY].

20 Ale ó Hospodine zástupů, soudce spravedlivý, kterýž zkušuješ ledví i srdce, nechť se podívám na pomstu tvou nad nimi; nebo jsem tobě zjevil při svou.

[Then I prayed], “Commander of the armies of angels, you judge people justly/fairly, and you examine everything that we are thinking [DOU]. Allow me to watch you getting revenge on the people [who want to kill me], because I trust that you will do for me what is right.”

21 Protož takto praví Hospodin o Anatotských, kteříž hledají bezživotí tvého, říkajíce: Neprorokuj ve jménu Hospodinovu, abys neumřel v ruce naší:

It was the men of [my own town], Anathoth, who wanted to kill me, and they told me that they would kill me if I did not stop prophesying what Yahweh told me to say.

22 Protož takto praví Hospodin zástupů: Aj, já navštívím je. Mládenci zbiti budou mečem, synové jejich i dcery jejich zemrou hladem,

So the Commander of the armies of angels said [about them], “I will punish them. Their young men will be killed in wars, and their children will die because they have no food.

23 A nebudou míti potomků, když uvedu zlé na Anatotské, času toho, v němž je navštívím.

I have set a time when I will bring disasters to the people of Anathoth, and when that happens, none of them will remain alive.”
