Jeremias 28

1 Kong Zedekias af Judas fjerde Regeringsaar i den femte Maaned sagde Profeten Hananja, Azzurs Søn, fra Gibeon til mig i HERRENS Hus i Præsternes og alt Folkets Nærværelse:

And it came to pass the same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, and in the fifth month, that Hananiah the son of Azur the prophet, who was of Gibeon, spoke to me in the house of the LORD, in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,

2 »Saa siger Hærskarers HERRE, Israels Gud: Jeg har sønderbrudt Babels Konges Aag.

Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.

3 Om to Aar fører jeg tilbage hertil alle HERRENS Hus's Kar, som Kong Nebukadnezar af Babel tog herfra og førte til Babel;

Within two full years will I bring again into this place all the vessels of the LORD’S house, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place, and carried them to Babylon:

4 og Jojakims Søn, Kong Jekonja af Juda, og alle de landflygtige fra Juda, som kom til Babel, fører jeg tilbage hertil, lyder det fra HERREN; thi jeg sønderbryder Babels Konges Aag.«

And I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, with all the captives of Judah, that went into Babylon, saith the LORD: for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.

5 Profeten Jeremias svarede Profeten Hananja i Nærværelse af Præsterne og alt Folket, som stod i HERRENS Hus,

Then the prophet Jeremiah said to the prophet Hananiah in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people that stood in the house of the LORD,

6 saaledes: »Amen! Maatte HERREN gøre saaledes og stadfæste, hvad du har profeteret, og føre HERRENS Hus's Kar og alle de landflygtige fra Babel tilbage hertil!

Even the prophet Jeremiah said, Amen: the LORD do so: the LORD perform thy words which thou hast prophesied, to bring again the vessels of the LORD’S house, and all that is carried away captive, from Babylon into this place.

7 Men hør dog dette Ord, som jeg vil tale til dig og alt Folket:

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

8 De Profeter, som levede før mig og dig fra Fortids Dage, profeterede mod mange Lande og mægtige Riger om Krig, Hunger og Pest;

The prophets that have been before me and before thee of old prophesied both against many countries, and against great kingdoms, of war, and of evil, and of pestilence.

9 men naar en Profet profeterer om Fred, kendes den Profet, HERREN virkelig har sendt, paa, at hans Ord gaar i Opfyldelse.«

The prophet who prophesieth of peace, when the word of the prophet shall come to pass, then shall the prophet be known, that the LORD hath truly sent him.

10 Saa rev Profeten Hananja Aagstængerne af Profeten Jeremias's Hals og sønderbrød dem;

Then Hananiah the prophet took the yoke from off the prophet Jeremiah’s neck, and broke it.

11 og Hananja sagde i alt Folkets Nærværelse: »Saa siger HERREN: Saaledes sønderbryder jeg om to Aar Kong Nebukadnezar af Babels Aag og tager det fra alle Folkenes Hals.« Men Profeten Jeremias gik sin Vej.

And Hananiah spoke in the presence of all the people, saying, Thus saith the LORD; Even so will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon from the neck of all nations within the space of two full years. And the prophet Jeremiah went his way.

12 Men efter at Profeten Hananja havde sønderbrudt Aagstængerne og revet dem af Profeten Jeremias's Hals, kom HERRENS Ord til Jeremias saaledes:

Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, after Hananiah the prophet had broken the yoke from off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying,

13 »Gaa hen og sig til Hananja: Saa siger HERREN: Du har sønderbrudt Aagstænger af Træ, men jeg vil lave Aagstænger af Jern i Stedet.

Go and tell Hananiah, saying, Thus saith the LORD; Thou hast broken the yokes of wood; but thou shalt make for them yokes of iron.

14 Thi saa siger Hærskarers HERRE, Israels Gud: Et Jernaag lægger jeg paa alle disse Folks Hals, at de maa trælle for Kong Nebukadnezar af Babel; de skal trælle for ham, selv Markens Vildt 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, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and they shall serve him: and I have given him the beasts of the field also.

15 Saa sagde Profeten Jeremias til Profeten Hananja: »Hør, Hananja! HERREN har ikke sendt dig, og du har faaet dette Folk til at slaa Lid til Løgn.

Then said the prophet Jeremiah to Hananiah the prophet, Hear now, Hananiah; The LORD hath not sent thee; but thou makest this people to trust in a lie.

16 Derfor, saa siger HERREN: Se, jeg slænger dig bort fra Jordens Flade; du skal dø i Aar, thi du har prædiket Frafald fra HERREN.«

Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will cast thee from off the face of the earth: this year thou shalt die, because thou hast taught rebellion against the LORD.

17 Og Profeten Hananja døde samme Aar i den syvende Maaned.

So Hananiah the prophet died the same year in the seventh month.
