Jeremias 30
1 Det ord, som kom til Jeramias fra Herren.
The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,
2 Skriv alle de Ord, jeg har talet til dig, op i en Bog.
Thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, saying, Write thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book.
3 Thi se Dage skal komme, lyder det fra HERREN, da jeg vender mit Folk Israels og Judas Skæbne, siger HERREN, og fører dem hjem til det Land, jeg gav deres Fædre, og de skal tage det i Eje.
For, behold, days are coming, saith the Lord, when I will bring back again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saith the Lord; and I will cause them to return to the land that I have given to their fathers, and they shall possess it.
4 Dette er de Ord, HERREN talede til Israel og Juda.
And these are the words that the Lord spoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah;
5 Så siger HERREN: Vi hørte et Udbrud af Skræk, af Rædsel og Ufred;
For thus hath said the Lord, A voice of terror have we heard, dread, and no peace.
6 spørg og se dog til, om en Mand kan føde! Hvi ser jeg da alle Mænd med Hånd på Hofte som Kvinde i Barnsnød og alle Åsyn blegne?
Ask ye now, and see whether a male doth give birth to a child? wherefore do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in giving birth? and why are all faces turned pale?
7 Thi stor er denne Dag, den er uden Lige, en Trængselstid for Jakob, men fra den skal han frelses.
Alas, for that day is great, there is none like it; and a time of distress it is unto Jacob; yet out of it shall he be saved.
8 På hin Dag, lyder det fra Hærskarers HERRE, vil jeg sønderbryde deres Åg og tage det af deres Hals og sprænge deres Bånd, og de skal ikke mere trælle for fremmede.
And it shall come to pass on that day, saith the Lord of hosts, that I will break his yoke from off thy neck, and thy bands will I burst asunder; and strangers shall not make him serve any more;
9 De skal tjene HERREN deres Gud og David, deres Konge, som jeg vil oprejse dem.
But they shall serve the Lord their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up unto them.
10 Frygt derfor ikke, min Tjener Jakob, lyder det fra HERREN, og vær ikke bange, Israel; thi se, jeg frelser dig fra det fjerne og dit Afkom fra deres Fangenskabs Land; og Jakob skal vende hjem og bo roligt og trygt, og ingen skal forfærde ham.
And thou—do not fear, O my servant Jacob, saith the Lord; and be not dismayed, O Israel; for, behold, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity: and Jacob shall return, and shall be at rest, and be secure, with none to terrify him.
11 Thi jeg er med dig, lyder det fra HERREN, for at frelse dig; thi jeg vil tilintetgøre alle de Folk, blandt hvilke jeg har spredt dig, men dig vil jeg ikke tilintetgøre; jeg vil tugte dig med Måde, ikke lade dig helt ustraffet.
For with thee am I, saith the Lord, to save thee: though I make a full end of all the nations whither I have scattered thee, yet of thee will I not make a full end; but I will correct thee in moderation, and will not leave thee altogether unpunished.
12 Thi så siger HERREN: Ulægeligt er dit Brud, dit Sår er svart.
For thus hath said the Lord, Incurable is thy bruise, and painful, thy wound.
13 Ingen fører din Sag. For din Byld er ingen Lægedom, for dig ingen Helse.
There is no one to plead thy cause, to bind up [thy wound]: useful remedies there are none for thee.
14 Alle dine Venner har glemt dig, søger dig ikke, thi med Fjendeslag slog jeg dig, med skånselløs Straf, fordi din Brøde var stor, dine Synder mange.
All thy lovers have forgotten thee; thee they seek not; for with the blow of an enemy have I smitten thee, with cruel chastisement, for the multitude of thy iniquity, because thy sins were so numerous.
15 Hvi skriger du over dit Brud, er dit Sår ulægeligt? Fordi din Brøde var stor, dine Synder mange, gjorde jeg dette imod dig.
Why wilt thou cry out because of thy breach? for thy pain which is incurable? because of the multitude of thy iniquity, because thy sins were so numerous, have I done these things unto thee.
16 Derfor skal alle, som fortærer dig, fortæres, alle dine Fjender, alle skal de vandre i Fangenskab; de, der plyndrer dig, skal plyndres, til Ran gør jeg alle dine Ransmænd.
Nevertheless all they that devour thee shall be devoured; and all thy adversaries, all of them, shall go into captivity; and they that plunder thee shall be [given up] to plunder, and all that prey upon thee will I give up for a prey.
17 Thi jeg heler dig, læger dine Sår, så lyder det fra HERREN; du kaldtes jo, Zion, "den bortstødte, som ingen søger."
For I will place a healing plaster on thy bruise, and of thy wounds will I cure thee, saith the Lord; because they called thee “an Outcast.” “This is Zion, whom no one seeketh after.”
18 Så siger HERREN: Se, jeg vender Jakobs Skæbne, forbarmer mig over hans Boliger, Byen skal bygges på sin Høj, Paladset stå, bvor det stod.
Thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will bring back again the captivity of the tents of Jacob, and on his dwelling-places will I have mercy; and the city shall be rebuilt upon her own heap of ruins, and the palace shall be inhabited after its [ancient] manner.
19 Fra dem skal Lovsang lyde og legendes Råb; de bliver ej færre, jeg gør dem mange; de bliver ej ringe, jeg giver dem Hæder.
And there shall proceed out of them thanksgiving, and the voice of those that make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be diminished; I will also make them numerous, and they shall not be made few in number.
20 Hans Sønner skal blive som fordum, hans Menighed stå fast for mit Åsyn. Jeg hjemsøger alle, som trykker ham.
And their children shall be as aforetimes, and their congregation shall be firmly established before me, and I will punish all that oppress them.
21 Hans Fyrste stammer fra ham selv, hans Hersker går frem af hans Midte. Jeg lader ham komme mig nær, han skal nærme sig mig; thi hvem ellers sætter Livet i Vov ved at nærme sig mig? lyder det fra HERREN.
And their leader shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto me; for who is this that will venture of his own heart to approach unto me? saith the Lord.
22 I skal være mit Folk, og jeg vil være eders Gud.
And ye shall be unto me for a people, and I will be unto you for a God.
23 Se, HERRENs Stormvejr, Vreden er brudt løs, et hvirvlende Stormvejr; det hvirvler hen over de gudløses Hoved.
Behold, the storm-wind of the Lord goeth forth with fury, an abiding storm-wind: upon the head of the wicked shall it fall.
24 HERRENs glødende Vrede lægger sig ikke, før han har udført og fuldbyrdet sit Hjertes Tanker; i de sidste dage skal I forstå det.
The fierceness of the anger of the Lord will not turn back, until he have done, and until he have fulfilled the purposes of his heart: in the latter days shall ye understand this.
