< 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 Jehoyakim the son of Josiah the king of Judah, that this word came unto Jeremiah from the Lord, 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-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 that I spoke unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even until 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.
Peradventure it be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do unto them: in order 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 did Jeremiah call Baruch the son of Neriyah: and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the Lord, which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll-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 am not able to enter into the house of the Lord:
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 the Lord before the ears of the people in the house of the Lord on the fast-day; and also before the ears of all Judah that come out of their cities shalt thou read them.
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.
Perhaps it may be that they will humbly present their supplication before the Lord, and will return every one from his evil way; for great are the anger and the fury that the Lord hath decreed 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 Neriyah did in accordance with all that Jeremiah the prophet had commanded him, to read in the book the words of the Lord in the house of the Lord.
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.
And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoyakim the son of Josiah the king of Judah, in the ninth month, that they proclaimed a fast before the Lord for all the people in Jerusalem, and for all the people that came from the cities of Judah unto Jerusalem.
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.
And Baruch read in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of the Lord, in the chamber of Gemaryahu the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the upper court, at the entrance of the new gate of the Lord's house, before the ears of all the people.
11 Og Mikaja, Gemarjas Søn, Safans Sønnesøn, hørte alle Herrens Ord i Bogen.
And when Michayhu the son of Gemaryahu, the son of Shaphan, had heard all the words of the Lord out of the book:
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, even Elishama' the scribe, and Delayahu the son of Shema'yahu, and Elnathan the son of 'Achbor, and Gemaryahu the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah the son of Chananyahu, and all the princes.
13 Og Mikaja forkyndte dem alle Ordene, som han havde hørt, der Baruk læste op af Bogen for Folkets øren.
And Michayhu told unto them all the words which he had heard, when Baruch read in the book before 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.
Thereupon sent all the princes Jehudi the son of Nethanyahu, the son of Shelemyahu, the son of Cushi, unto Baruch, saying, The roll wherein thou hast read before the ears of the people, —this take in thy hand, and come. So Baruch the son of Neriyahu 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, we pray thee, and read it before our ears. So Baruch read it before 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 heard all the words, they looked terrified at each other, and they 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, Do tell us, How didst thou write down all these words from 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 said Baruch unto them, With his mouth did he utter clearly all these words unto me, and I wrote them in the book with ink.
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 thyself, thou with 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 the roll they had put in safe keeping in the chamber of Elishama' the scribe; and they told before the ears of the king all the words.
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.
But the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll; and he took it out of the chamber of Elishama' the scribe. And Jehudi read it before the ears of the king, and before the ears of all the princes who stood around 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 a pan of coals was 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 pages, that he cut it with the writer's knife, and cast it into the fire that was in the coal-pan, until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was in the coal-pan.
24 Og de forfærdedes ikke og sønderreve ikke deres Klæder, hverken Kongen eller nogen af hans Tjenere, da de hørte alle disse Ord;
Yet they were not terrified, nor did they rend their garments, either the king, or any of his servants that had 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.
And although Elnathan and Delayahu and Gemaryahu had also made intercession with the king that he might not burn the roll, he would not listen to 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 Yerachmeel the son of the king, and Serayahu the son of 'Azriel, and Shelemyahu the son of 'Abdeel, to seize on Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet; but the Lord 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 came the word of the Lord to Jeremiah, after the king had burnt the roll, and the words which Baruch had written down from 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 on it all the former words that have been on the first roll, which Jehoyakim the king of Judah hath burnt.
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 Jehoyakim the king of Judah shalt thou say, Thus hath said the Lord, Thou hast indeed burnt 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 therefrom 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 hath said the Lord concerning Jehoyakim the king of Judah, He shall have no one to sit upon the throne of David; and his dead body shall be cast out to the heat in the day, and to the cold in the night.
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 visit on him and on his seed and on his servants their iniquity; and I will bring over them, and over the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and against the men of Judah, all the evil that I have spoken against them, while they did not hearken.
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.
And Jeremiah took another roll, and gave it to Baruch the son of Neriyahu the scribe; who wrote thereon from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoyakim the king of Judah had burnt in the fire: and there were yet added unto them many words like them.
