Jeremias 28

1 Og det skete i dette Aar, i Begyndelsen af Judas Konge Zedekias's Regering, i det fjerde Aar, i den femte Maaned, at Profeten Hananias, Assurs Søn, som var fra Gibeon, sagde saaledes til mig i Herrens Hus, for Præsterne og alt Folkets Øjne:

And it came to pass in that year, in the beginning of the reign of Sedecias king of Juda, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, that Hananias the son of Azur, a prophet of Gabaon spoke to me, in the house of the Lord before the priests, and all the people, saying:

2 Saa siger den Herre Zebaoth, Israels Gud: Jeg har sønderbrudt Kongen af Babels Aag.

Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.

3 Inden et Par Aars Tid er omme, vil jeg føre tilbage til dette Sted alle Herrens Hus's Kar, som Nebukadnezar, Kongen af Babel, tog fra dette Sted og førte til Babel.

As yet two years of days, and I will cause all the vessels of the house of the Lord to be brought back into this place, which Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon took away from this place, and carried them to Babylon.

4 Og Jekonias, Jojakims Søn, Judas Konge og alle bortførte af Juda, som ere komne til Babel, vil jeg føre tilbage til dette Sted, siger Herren; thi jeg vil sønderbryde Kongen af Babels Aag.

And I will bring back to this place Jechonias the son of Joakim king of Juda, and all the captives of Juda, that are gone to Babylon, saith the Lord: for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.

5 Og Profeten Jeremias sagde til Profeten Hananias for Præsternes Øjne og for alt Folkets Øjne, medens de stode i Herrens Hus,

And Jeremias the prophet said to Hananias the prophet in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people that stood in the house of the Lord:

6 ja, Profeten Jeremias sagde: Amen! Herren gøre saa, Herren stadfæste dine Ord, som du har spaaet om, at han vil lade Herrens Hus's Kar og alle bortførte komme tilbage fra Babel til dette Sted!

And Jeremias the prophet said: Amen, the Lord do so: the Lord perform thy words, which thou hast prophesied: that the vessels may be brought again into the house of the Lord, and all the captives may return out of Babylon to this place.

7 Men hør kun dette Ord, som jeg taler for dine Øren og for alt Folkets Øren:

Nevertheless hear this word that I speak in thy ears, and in the ears of all the people:

8 Profeterne, som have været før mig og før dig af fordums Tid, spaaede imod mange Lande og imod store Riger om Krig og om Ulykke og om Pest.

The prophets that have been before me, and before thee from the beginning, and have prophesied concerning many countries, and concerning great kingdoms, of war, and of affliction, and of famine.

9 Men naar Profeten spaar om Fred, saa vil han, naar Profetens Ord gaar i Opfyldelse, erkendes som den Profet, Herren i Sandhed har sendt.

The prophet that prophesied peace when his word shall come to pass, the prophet shall be known, whom the Lord hath sent in truth.

10 Da tog Profeten Hananias Aaget af Profeten Jeremias's Hals og sønderbrød det.

And Hananias the prophet took the chain from the neck of Jeremias the prophet, and broke it.

11 Og Hananias sagde saaledes for alt Folkets Øjne: Saa siger Herren: Saaledes vil jeg inden et Par Aars Tid er omme, bryde Nebukadnezar, Kongen af Babels Aag af alle Folkenes Hals; og Profeten Jeremias gik sin Vej.

And Hananias spoke in the presence of all the people, saying: Thus saith the Lord: Even so will I break the yoke of Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon after two full years from off the neck of all the nations.

12 Men Herrens Ord kom til Jeremias, efter at Profeten Hananias havde brudt Aaget af Profeten Jeremias's Hals, og han sagde:

And Jeremias the prophet went his way. And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, after that Hananias the prophet had broken the chain from off the neck of Jeremias the prophet, saying:

13 Gak og sig saaledes til Hananias: Saa siger Herren: Du har sønderbrudt Træaag, men du har gjort Jernaag i Stedet for.

Go, and tell Hananias: Thus saith the Lord: Thou hast broken chains of wood, and thou shalt make for them chains of iron.

14 Thi saa siger den Herre Zebaoth, Israels Gud: Jeg har lagt et Jernaag paa alle disse Folks Hals, at de maa tjene Nebukadnezar, Kongen af Babel, og de skulle tjene ham; ogsaa de vilde Dyr paa Marken har jeg givet ham.

For thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: I have put a yoke of iron upon the neck of all these nations, to serve Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, and they shall serve him: moreover also I have given him the beasts of the earth.

15 Og Profeten Jeremias sagde til Profeten Hananias: Hør dog, Hananias! Herren har ikke sendt dig, og du har faaet dette Folk til at forlade sig paa Løgn.

And Jeremias the prophet said to Hananias the prophet: Hear now, Hananias: the Lord hath not sent thee, and thou hast made this people to trust in a lie.

16 Derfor, saa siger Herren: Se, jeg vil sende dig bort fra Jordens Kreds; i dette Aar skal du dø, thi du har prædiket Frafald fra Herren.

Therefore thus saith the Lord: Behold I will send thee away from off the face of the earth: this year shalt thou die: for thou hast spoken against the Lord.

17 Saa døde Profeten Hananias i det samme Aar, i den syvende Maaned.

And Hananias the prophet died in that year, in the seventh month.
