< Jeremias 33 >

1 Og Herrens Ord kom til Jeremias anden Gang, medens han endnu var indelukket i Fængselets Forgaard; det lød:
Moreover the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the guard, saying,
2 Saa siger Herren, som gør det, Herren, som beslutter det, saa at han udfører det, Herren er hans Navn:
Thus says Jehovah who does it, Jehovah who forms it to establish it; Jehovah is his name:
3 Raab til mig, og jeg vil svare dig, og jeg vil tilkendegive dig store og velforvarede Ting, som du ikke ved.
Call to me, and I will answer thee, and will show thee great things, and difficult, which thou know not.
4 Thi saa siger Herren, Israels Gud, om denne Stads Huse og om Judas Kongers Huse, som ere slaaede ned formedelst Belejringsvoldene og formedelst Sværdet,
For thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are broken down to defend against the mounds and against the sword,
5 og om dem, som kom ind for at stride imod Kaldæerne og for at fylde op med døde Kroppe af Mennesker, hvilke jeg slog i min Vrede og i min Harme, og idet jeg skjulte mit Ansigt for denne Stad for al deres Ondskabs Skyld:
while men come to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have slain in my anger and in my wrath, and for all whose wickedness I have hid my face from this city:
6 Se, jeg vil lade dens Helbredelse og Lægedom tage til og læge dem, og jeg vil oplade dem en Rigdom af Fred og Sandhed.
Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them. And I will reveal to them abundance of peace and truth.
7 Og jeg vil omvende Judas Fangenskab og Israels Fangenskab, og jeg vil bygge dem som i Begyndelsen.
And I will cause the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel to return, and will build them as at the first.
8 Og jeg vil rense dem fra al deres Misgerning, med hvilken de syndede imod mig, og forlade dem alle deres Misgerninger, med hvilke de have syndet imod mig, og med hvilke de have forbrudt sig imod mig.
And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity by which they have sinned against me. And I will pardon all their iniquities by which they have sinned against me, and by which they have transgressed against me.
9 Og det skal være mig til et glædeligt Navn, til Lov og til Ære for alle Jordens Folkeslag, som høre alt det gode, jeg gør dem; og de skulle forfærdes og skælve over alt det gode og over al den Fred, som jeg vil give dem.
And this city shall be to me for a name of joy, for a praise and for a glory, before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good that I do to them, and shall fear and tremble for all the good and for all the peace that I procure to it.
10 Saa siger Herren: Endnu skal der paa dette Sted, om hvilket I sige: Det er øde, uden Folk og uden Fæ, i Judas Stæder og paa Jerusalems Gader, som ere ødelagte, uden Folk og uden Indbyggere og uden Fæ, høres
Thus says Jehovah: Yet again there shall be heard in this place-of which ye say, It is waste, without man and without beast, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man and without inhabitant and without beast-
11 Fryds Røst og Glædes Røst, Brudgoms Røst og Bruds Røst, deres Røst, som sige: Takker den Herre Zebaoth, thi Herren er god, thi hans Miskundhed er evindelig, og deres, som bringe Takoffer til Herrens Hus; thi jeg vil omvende Landets Fangenskab som i Begyndelsen, sagde Herren.
the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of those who say, Give thanks to Jehovah of hosts, for Jehovah is good, for his loving kindness is forever, and of those who bring thanksgiving into the house of Jehovah. For I will cause the captivity of the land to return as at the first, says Jehovah.
12 Saa siger den Herre Zebaoth: Endnu skal der være paa dette Sted, som er øde uden Folk og uden Fæ, og i alle dets Stæder Bolig for Hyrder, som lade Hjorden hvile.
Thus says Jehovah of hosts: Yet again there shall be in this place, which is waste, without man and without beast, and in all the cities thereof, a habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.
13 I Stæderne paa Bjerget, i Stæderne i Lavlandet og i Stæderne imod Sønden og i Benjamins Land og trindt omkring Jerusalem og i Judas Stæder skulle Hjordene endnu gaa forbi Tællerens Hænder, siger Herren.
In the cities of the hill-country, in the cities of the lowland, and in the cities of the South, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the places around Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, the flocks shall again pass under the hands of him who numbers them, says Jehovah.
14 Se, de Dage komme, siger Herren, da jeg vil stadfæste det gode Ord, hvilket jeg har talt til Israels Hus og om Judas Hus.
Behold, the days come, says Jehovah, that I will perform that good word which I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and concerning the house of Judah.
15 I de Dage og paa den Tid vil jeg lade for David en Retfærdigheds Vækst opvokse; og han skal øve Ret og Retfærdighed paa Jorden.
In those days, and at that time, I will cause a Branch of righteousness to grow up to David, and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.
16 I de Dage skal Juda frelses og Jerusalem bo tryggelig; og dette er Navnet, man skal give den: Herren vor Retfærdighed.
In those days Judah shall be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely. And this is the name whereby she shall be called: Jehovah our righteousness.
17 Thi saa siger Herren: Der skal ikke fattes for David en Mand, som skal sidde paa Israels Hus's Trone.
For thus says Jehovah: David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel,
18 Og der skal ikke fattes for Præsterne, Leviterne, en Mand til at staa for mit Ansigt, som skal ofre Brændoffer og antænde Madoffer og lave Slagtoffer alle Dagene.
neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to burn meal offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.
19 Og Herrens Ord kom til Jeremias, saaledes:
And the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, saying,
20 Saa siger Herren: Dersom I kunne bryde min Pagt med Dagen og min Pagt med Natten, saa at der ikke bliver Dag og Nat, naar Tiden er:
Thus says Jehovah: If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, so that there shall not be day and night in their season,
21 Da skal ogsaa min Pagt med David, min Tjener, brydes, at han ikke skal have en Søn til at være Konge paa hans Trone, og med Leviterne, Præsterne, mine Tjenere.
then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he shall not have a son to reign upon his throne, and with the Levites the priests, my ministers.
22 Thi ligesom Himmelens Hær ikke kan tælles og Havets Sand ikke maales, saaledes vil jeg formere Davids, min Tjeners, Sæd og Leviterne, som tjene mig.
As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured, so I will multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister to me.
23 Og Herrens Ord kom til Jeremias, saalunde:
And the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, saying,
24 Har du ikke set, hvad dette Folk har talt, idet det siger: De to Slægter, som Herren havde udvalgt, dem har han forkastet? og de foragte mit Folk, saa at det ikke mere er et Folk for deres Ansigt.
Consider thou not what this people have spoken, saying, The two families which Jehovah chose, he has cast them off? Thus they despise my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.
25 Saa siger Herren: Dersom jeg ikke har fastsat min Pagt med Dag og Nat, Himmelens og Jordens Skikke,
Thus says Jehovah: If my covenant of day and night stand not, if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth,
26 da vil jeg ogsaa forkaste Jakobs og Davids, min Tjeners, Sæd, saa at jeg ikke af hans Sæd tager dem, som skulle herske over Abrahams, Isaks og Jakobs Sæd; thi jeg vil omvende deres Fangenskab og forbarme mig over dem.
then I will also cast away the seed of Jacob, and of David my servant, so that I will not take of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. For I will cause their captivity to return, and will have mercy on them.
