Jeremias 27
1 I Josias's Søns, Kong Jojakim af Judas, første Regeringstid kom dette Ord til Jeremias fra HERREN:
In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah, king of Judah, came this word unto Jeremiah, from Yahweh, saying:
2 Saaledes sagde HERREN til mig: Gør dig Reb og Aagstænger og læg dem paa din Hals
Thus, said Yahweh unto me, Make thee, bonds and bars, and put them upon thine own neck.
3 og send Edoms, Moabs, Ammoniternes, Tyrus's og Zidons Konger Bud ved deres Sendemænd, som er kommet til Kong Zedekias af Juda i Jerusalem;
Then shalt thou send them unto the king of Edom and unto the king of Moab and unto the king of the sons of Ammon, and unto the king of Tyre and unto the king of Zidon, —by the hand of messengers coming into Jerusalem, unto Zedekiah king of Judah.
4 byd dem at sige til deres Herrer: Saa siger Hærskarers HERRE, Israels Gud: Sig til eders Herrer:
And thou shall give them charge unto their lords saying, —Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts God of Israel, Thus shall ye say unto your lords: —
5 Jeg skabte Jorden og Menneskene og Kvæget paa Jorden ved min vældige Styrke og min udrakte Haand, og jeg giver den, til hvem jeg finder for godt.
I, made The earth—The man and the beast that are on the face of the earth—By my great power, And by mine outstretched arm, —And gave it to whomsoever was right in mine own eyes.
6 Og nu giver jeg alle disse Lande i min Tjener Kong Nebukadnezar af Babels Haand, selv Markens Vildt giver jeg hen til at trælle for ham.
Now, therefore, I, have given all these lands, into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon my servant, —Moreover also, the wild beast of the field, have I given him, to serve him.
7 Alle Folk skal trælle for ham, hans Søn og Sønnesøn, indtil ogsaa hans Lands Time slaar og mange Folkeslag og store Konger gør ham til deres Træl.
Therefore shall all the nations serve him, and his son, and his son’s son, —until the time even of his own land, itself arrive, when many nations and great kings, shall use him as a slave.
8 Og det Folk og det Rige, som ikke vil trælle for ham, Kong Nebukadnezar af Babel, og bøje Hals under Babels Konges Aag, det vil jeg hjemsøge med Sværd, Hunger og Pest, lyder det fra HERREN, til det er tilintetgjort ved hans Haand.
And it shall come to pass that, the nation or kingdom which will not serve him, even Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and that will not put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, —with sword and with famine, and with pestilence, will I bring punishment upon that nation, Declareth Yahweh, until I have consumed them by his hand.
9 I skal ikke høre paa eders Profeter og Spaamænd, eders Drømmere, Sandsigere og Troldmænd, som siger til eder: »I skal ikke komme til at trælle for Babels Konge; «
Ye, therefore do not ye hearken unto your prophets, nor unto your diviners, nor unto your dreams, nor unto your users of hidden arts nor unto your mutterers of incantations, —in that, they, are speaking unto you saying, Ye shall not serve the king of Babylon;
10 thi det er Løgn, de profeterer for eder for at faa eder bort fra eders Jord, idet jeg da driver eder bort og I gaar til Grunde.
for falsehood, are they prophesying unto you, that ye may be far removed from off your own soil, and I drive you out, and ye be destroyed
11 Men det Folk, der bøjer Hals under Babels Konges Aag og træller for ham, vil jeg lade blive paa sin Jord, lyder det fra HERREN, saa det kan dyrke den og bo der.
But the nation that shall bring its neck into the yoke of the king of Babylon and serve him, I will let them remain in quietness upon their own soil, Declareth Yahweh, and they shall till it, and dwell therein.
12 Og til Kong Zedekias af Juda talte jeg i Overensstemmelse med alle disse Ord: Bøj Hals under Babels Konges Aag og træl for ham og hans Folk, saa skal I leve.
Also unto Zedekiah king of Judah, spake I, according to all these words saying, -Bring your necks into the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people and live!
13 Hvorfor vil du og dit Folk dø ved Sværd, Hunger og Pest, saaledes som HERREN truede det Folk, der ikke vil trælle for Babels Konge?
Wherefore, should ye die, thou, and thy people, by sword, by famine, and by pestilence, —as Yahweh hath spoken against the nation that will not serve the king of Babylon?
14 Hør ikke paa Profeternes Ord, naar de siger til eder: »I skal ikke komme til at trælle for Babels Konge«; thi Løgn profeterer de eder.
Do not, then hearken unto the words of the prophets who are speaking unto you, saying—Ye shall not serve the king of Babylon, —for falsehood, are they prophesying unto you.
15 Jeg har ikke sendt dem, lyder det fra HERREN, og de profeterer Løgn i mit Navn, for at jeg skal bortstøde eder, saa I gaar til Grunde sammen med Profeterne, der profeterer for eder.
For I have not sent them, Declareth Yahweh, but they are prophesying in my name, falsely, —to the end I may drive you out and ye be destroyed, ye and the prophets who are prophesying unto you.
16 Og til Præsterne og alt dette Folk talte jeg saaledes: Saa siger HERREN: Hør ikke paa eders Profeters Ord, naar de profeterer for eder og siger: »Se, HERRENS Hus's Kar skal nu snart føres hjem fra Babel.« Thi Løgn profeterer de eder.
Also unto the priests, and unto all this people, spake I, saying, Thus! saith Yahweh, Do not hearken unto the words of your prophets, who are prophesying unto you saying, Lo! the vessels of the house of Yahweh, are to be brought back out of Babylon now, quickly; for falsehood, are they prophesying unto you.
17 Hør dem ikke, men træl for Babels Konge, saa skal I leve. Hvorfor skal denne By lægges øde?
Do not hearken unto them, serve the king of Babylon land live! wherefore, should this city become a desolation?
18 Er de Profeter og har HERRENS Ord, saa lad dem gaa i Forbøn hos Hærskarers HERRE, at de Kar, der er tilbage i HERRENS Hus og Judas Konges Palads, ikke ogsaa skal komme til Babel.
But, if prophets, they are, and if the word of Yahweh is with them, let them intercede, I pray you, with Yahweh of hosts, that the vessels which are left remaining in the house of Yahweh and the house of the king of Judah and in Jerusalem, come not into Babylon.
19 Thi saa siger Hærskarers HERRE om Søjlerne, Havet og Stellene og om de sidste Kar, der er tilbage i denne By,
For Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts—Concerning the pillars, and concerning the sea, and concerning the stands, —and concerning the residue of the vessels that remain in this city
20 dem, som Kong Nebukadnezar af Babel ikke tog med, da han bortførte Jojakims Søn, Kong Jekonja af Juda, fra Jerusalem til Babel med alle de ypperste i Juda og Jerusalem,
which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took not when he carried away captive Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim king of Judah from Jerusalem to Babylon, —with all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem,
21 ja, saa siger Hærskarers HERRE, Israels Gud, om de Kar, der er tilbage i HERRENS Hus og Judas Konges Palads og i Jerusalem:
Yea—Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts God of Israel Concerning the vessels that are left in thee house of Yahweh and the house of the king of Judah, and Jerusalem,
22 De skal føres til Babel, og der skal de blive, til den Dag jeg tager mig af dem og fører dem op og bringer dem tilbage hertil, lyder det fra HERREN.
Into Babylon, shall they be taken And there, shall they remain, Until the day that I visit them, Declareth Yahweh, When I will bring them up, and restore them unto this place.
