< Jeremiáš 47 >
1 Slovo Hospodinovo, kteréž se stalo k Jeremiášovi proroku proti Filistinským, prvé než dobyl Farao Gázy.
The word of the Lord which came to Jeremiah the prophet about the Philistines, before Pharaoh's attack on Gaza.
2 Takto praví Hospodin: Aj, vody vystupují od půlnoci, a obrátí se v potok rozvodnilý, tak že zatopí zemi, i cožkoli jest na ní, město i ty, kteříž bydlí v něm; pročež křičeti budou lidé, a kvíliti všeliký obyvatel té země;
This is what the Lord has said: See, waters are coming up out of the north, and will become an overflowing stream, overflowing the land and everything in it, the town and those who are living in it; and men will give a cry, and all the people of the land will be crying out in pain.
3 Pro zvuk dusání kopyt silných jeho, pro hřmot vozů jeho, a hrčení kol jeho, neohlédnou se otcové na syny, majíce opuštěné ruce;
At the noise of the stamping of the feet of his war-horses, at the rushing of his carriages and the thunder of his wheels, fathers will give no thought to their children, because their hands are feeble;
4 Pro ten den, kterýž přijíti má, aby pohubil všecky Filistinské, aby zahladil Týr a Sidon, i všelikou pozůstávající pomoc, když hubiti bude Hospodin Filistinské, ostatek krajiny Kaftor.
Because of the day which is coming with destruction on all the Philistines, cutting off from Tyre and Zidon the last of their helpers: for the Lord will send destruction on the Philistines, the rest of the sea-land of Caphtor.
5 Přijde lysina na Gázu, vypléněn bude Aškalon i ostatek údolí jejich. Dokudž se řezati budeš?
The hair is cut off from the head of Gaza; Ashkelon has come to nothing; the last of the Anakim are deeply wounding themselves.
6 Ach, meči Hospodinův, dokudž se nespokojíš? Navrať se do pošvy své, utiš se, a zastav se.
O sword of the Lord, how long will you have no rest? put yourself back into your cover; be at peace, be quiet.
7 I jakž by se spokojil? Však Hospodin přikázal jemu. Proti Aškalon a proti břehu mořskému, tam postavil jej.
How is it possible for it to be quiet, seeing that the Lord has given it orders? against Ashkelon and against the sea-land he has given it directions.
