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:

That same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, Hananiah the son of Azzur, the prophet, who was of Gibeon, spoke to me in the LORD’s house, 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.

“The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says, ‘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 I will 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 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.«

I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, with all the captives of Judah, who went to Babylon,’ says 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 who stood in the LORD’s house,

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! May the LORD do so. May the LORD perform your words which you have prophesied, to bring again the vessels of the LORD’s house, and all those who are captives, from Babylon to this place.

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

Nevertheless listen now to this word that I speak in your 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 who have been before me and before you of old prophesied against many countries, and against great kingdoms, of war, 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.«

As for the prophet who prophesies of peace, when the word of the prophet happens, then the prophet will be known, that the LORD has truly sent him.”

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

Then Hananiah the prophet took the bar 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.

Hananiah spoke in the presence of all the people, saying, “The LORD says: ‘Even so I will break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon from off the neck of all the nations within two full years.’” Then 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 LORD’s word came to Jeremiah, after Hananiah the prophet had broken the bar 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, ‘The LORD says, “You have broken the bars of wood, but you have made in their place bars 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 the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel says, “I have put a yoke of iron on the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and they will serve him. I have also given him the animals of the field.”’”

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 the prophet Jeremiah said to Hananiah the prophet, “Listen, Hananiah! The LORD has not sent you, but you make this people 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 the LORD says, ‘Behold, I will send you away from off the surface of the earth. This year you will die, because you have spoken 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.
