< Jeremias 36 >
1 Og det skete i Judas Konge Jojakims, Josias's Søns, fjerde Aar, at dette Ord kom til Jeremias fra Herren:
And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, that this word came unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,
2 Tag din Bogrulle og skriv i den alle de Ord, som jeg har talt til dig om Israel og om Juda og om alle Hedningerne, fra den Dag af, da jeg har talt til dig, fra Josias's Dage og indtil denne Dag.
Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spake unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even unto this day.
3 Maaske Judas Hus vilde høre al den Ulykke, som jeg tænker at gøre imod dem, for at de kunde omvende sig, hver fra sin onde Vej, og jeg kunde forlade dem deres Misgerninger og deres Synd.
It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do unto them; that they may return every man from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.
4 Da kaldte Jeremias ad Baruk, Nerias Søn; og Baruk skrev efter Jeremias's Mund alle Herrens Ord, som han havde talt til ham, i Bogrullen.
Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah; and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of Jehovah, which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a book.
5 Og Jeremias befalede Baruk og sagde: Jeg er forhindret, jeg kan ikke komme til Herrens Hus.
And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut up; I cannot go into the house of Jehovah:
6 Men gak du og læs op af Rullen, som du har skrevet efter min Mund, Herrens Ord for Folkets Øren i Herrens Hus paa Fastedagen; ogsaa for Ørene af alle Judas Folk, som ere komne op fra deres Stæder, skal du læse dem.
therefore go thou, and read in the roll, which thou hast written from my mouth, the words of Jehovah in the ears of the people in Jehovah’s house upon the fast-day; and also thou shalt read them in the ears of all Judah that come out of their cities.
7 Maaske deres ydmyge Begæring kunde komme ind for Herrens Ansigt, og de maatte omvende sig, hver fra sin onde Vej; thi stor er Vreden og Fortørnelsen, som Herren har udtalt imod dette Folk.
It may be they will present their supplication before Jehovah, and will return every one from his evil way; for great is the anger and the wrath that Jehovah hath pronounced against this people.
8 Og Baruk, Nerias Søn, gjorde efter alt det, som Profeten Jeremias havde befalet ham, om at han skulde læse af Bogen Herrens Ord i Herrens Hus.
And Baruch the son of Neriah did according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, reading in the book the words of Jehovah in Jehovah’s house.
9 Og det skete i Judas Konge Jojakims, Josias's Søns, femte Aar, i den niende Maaned, at alt Folket i Jerusalem og alt Folket, som var kommet fra Judas Stæder til Jerusalem, udraabte en Faste for Herrens Ansigt.
Now it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, in the ninth month, that all the people in Jerusalem, and all the people that came from the cities of Judah unto Jerusalem, proclaimed a fast before Jehovah.
10 Og Baruk læste Jeremias's Ord op af Bogen, i Herrens Hus, i Skriveren Gemarjas, Safans Søns, Kammer, i den øverste Forgaard, ved Indgangen igennem den nye Port paa Herrens Hus, for hele Folkets Øren.
Then read Baruch in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of Jehovah, in the chamber of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the upper court, at the entry of the new gate of Jehovah’s house, in the ears of all the people.
11 Og Mikaja, Gemarjas Søn, Safans Sønnesøn, hørte alle Herrens Ord i Bogen.
And when Micaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard out of the book all the words of Jehovah,
12 Og han gik ned til Kongens Hus til Skriverens Kammer, og se, der sade alle Fyrsterne: Skriveren Elisama og Delaja, Semajas Søn, og Elnatan, Akbors Søn, og Gemarja, Safans Søn, og Zedekias, Hananjas Søn, ja, alle Fyrsterne.
he went down into the king’s house, into the scribe’s chamber: and, lo, all the princes were sitting there, [to wit], Elishama the scribe, and Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan the son of Achbor, and Gemariah the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.
13 Og Mikaja forkyndte dem alle Ordene, som han havde hørt, der Baruk læste op af Bogen for Folkets øren.
Then Micaiah declared unto them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read the book in the ears of the people.
14 Da sendte alle Fyrsterne Judi, en Søn af Netanja, der var en Søn af Selemja, der var en Søn af Kusi, til Baruk, og lode sige: Tag den Rulle, af hvilken du læste op for Folkets Øren, i din Haand og kom hid; og Baruk, Nerias Søn, tog Rullen i sin Haand og kom til dem.
Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, unto Baruch, saying, Take in thy hand the roll wherein thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come. So Baruch the son of Neriah took the roll in his hand, and came unto them.
15 Og de sagde til ham: Sæt dig nu og læs den for vore Øren; og Baruk læste den for deres Øren.
And they said unto him, Sit down now, and read it in our ears. So Baruch read it in their ears.
16 Og det skete, der de hørte alle disse Ord, forfærdedes de, den ene for den anden; og de sagde til Baruk: Vi maa forkynde Kongen alle disse Ord.
Now it came to pass, when they had heard all the words, they turned in fear one toward another, and said unto Baruch, We will surely tell the king of all these words.
17 Og de spurgte Baruk og sagde: Giv os dog til Kende, hvorledes du skrev alle disse Ord efter hans Mund?
And they asked Baruch, saying, Tell us now, How didst thou write all these words at his mouth?
18 Og Baruk sagde til dem: Han foresagde mig alle disse Ord af sin Mund, medens jeg skrev dem i Bogen med Blæk.
Then Baruch answered them, He pronounced all these words unto me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ink in the book.
19 Da sagde Fyrsterne til Baruk: Gak hen, skjul dig, du og Jeremias, og lad ingen vide, hvor I ere.
Then said the princes unto Baruch, Go, hide thee, thou and Jeremiah; and let no man know where ye are.
20 Og de kom til Kongen i Forgaarden, da de havde henlagt Rullen i Skriveren Elisamas Kammer, og de forkyndte alle Ordene for Kongens Øren.
And they went in to the king into the court; but they had laid up the roll in the chamber of Elishama the scribe; and they told all the words in the ears of the king.
21 Da sendte Kongen Judi for at hente Rullen, og han tog den fra Skriveren Elisamas Kammer; og Judi læste den op for Kongens Øren og for alle de Fyrsters Øren, som stode hos Kongen.
So the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll; and he took it out of the chamber of Elishama the scribe. And Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the princes that stood beside the king.
22 Og Kongen sad i Vinterhuset, i den niende Maaned, medens Ildbækkenet stod med Gløder for hans Ansigt.
Now the king was sitting in the winter-house in the ninth month: and [there was a fire in] the brazier burning before him.
23 Og det skete, der Judi havde læst tre eller fire Stykker, skar han dem af med Skriverens Kniv og kastede dem i Ilden, som var paa Bækkenet, indtil den hele Rulle blev opbrændt i Ilden, som var paa Bækkenet.
And it came to pass, when Jehudi had read three or four leaves, that [the king] cut it with the penknife, and cast it into the fire that was in the brazier, until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was in the brazier.
24 Og de forfærdedes ikke og sønderreve ikke deres Klæder, hverken Kongen eller nogen af hans Tjenere, da de hørte alle disse Ord;
And they were not afraid, nor rent their garments, neither the king, nor any of his servants that heard all these words.
25 og uagtet Elnatan og Delaja og Gemarja bade Kongen, at han ikke maatte opbrænde Rullen, hørte han dem dog ikke.
Moreover Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the roll; but he would not hear them.
26 Og Kongen bød Jerameel, Meleks Søn, og Seraja, Afriels Søn, og Selemja, Abdeels Søn, at gribe Skriveren Baruk og Profeten Jeremias; men Herren skjulte dem.
And the king commanded Jerahmeel the king’s son, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet; but Jehovah hid them.
27 Og Herrens Ord kom til Jeremias, efter at Kongen havde opbrændt Rullen med Ordene, som Baruk havde skrevet efter Jeremias's Mund; det lød saaledes:
Then the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, after that the king had burned the roll, and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, saying,
28 Tag dig igen en anden Rulle, og skriv i den alle de forrige Ord, som stode i den forrige Rulle, hvilken Jojakim, Judas Konge, har opbrændt.
Take thee again another roll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first roll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah hath burned.
29 Og om Jojakim, Judas Konge skal du sige: Saa siger Herren: Du opbrændte denne Rulle og sagde: Hvorfor skrev du saaledes deri: Kongen af Babel skal komme og ødelægge dette Land og udrydde baade Folk og Fæ deraf?
And concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah thou shalt say, Thus saith Jehovah: Thou hast burned this roll, saying, Why hast thou written therein, saying, The king of Babylon shall certainly come and destroy this land, and shall cause to cease from thence man and beast?
30 Derfor, saa siger Herren om Jojakim, Judas Konge: For ham skal der ingen være, som sidder paa Davids Trone, og hans døde Krop skal være henkastet for Heden om Dagen og for Frosten om Natten.
Therefore thus saith Jehovah concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah: He shall have none to sit upon the throne of David; and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.
31 Og jeg vil hjemsøge ham og hans Sæd og hans Tjenere for deres Misgerning, og jeg vil bringe over dem og over Jerusalems Indbyggere og over Judas Mænd al den Ulykke, som jeg har udtalt over dem, uden at de vilde høre.
And I will punish him and his seed and his servants for their iniquity; and I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them, but they hearkened not.
32 Da tog Jeremias en anden Rulle og gav Skriveren Baruk, Nerias Søn, den, og han skrev i den efter Jeremias's Mund alle Ordene fra den Bog, som Jojakim, Kongen i Juda, havde opbrændt i Ilden; og der blev desuden endnu tillagte mange lignende Ord.
Then took Jeremiah another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah, who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire; and there were added besides unto them many like words.
