Jeremias 36
1 I Josiases søn kong Jojakim af Judas fjerde regeringsår kom dette Ord til Jeremias fra HERREN:
In the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying,
2 "Tag dig en Bogrulle og skriv deri alle de Ord, jeg har talet til dig om Jerusalem og Juda og om alle Folkene, fra den Dag jeg først talede til dig, fra Josiass dage og til den Dag i Dag.
“Take a scroll of a book, and write in it all the words that I have spoken to you against Israel, against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spoke to you, from the days of Josiah even to this day.
3 Måske vil Judas Hus mærke sig al den Ulykke, jeg har i Sinde at gøre dem, for at de må omvende sig hver fra sin onde Vej, så jeg kan tilgive deres Brøde og Synd."
It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I intend to do to them, that they may each return from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.”
4 Så tilkaldte Jeremias Baruk, Nerijas Søn, og Baruk optegnede i Bogrullen efter Jeremiass Mund alle de Ord, HERREN havde talet til ham.
Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah; and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all Yahweh’s words, which he had spoken to him, on a scroll of a book.
5 Derpå sagde Jeremias til Baruk: "Jeg er hindret i at gå ind i HERRENs Hus;
Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, “I am restricted. I can’t go into Yahweh’s house.
6 men gå du ind og læs HERRENs Ord op af Bogrullen, som du skrev efter min Mund, for Folket i HERRENs Hus på en Fastedag; også for alle Judæere, der kommer ind fra deres Byer, skal du læse dem.
Therefore you go, and read from the scroll which you have written from my mouth, Yahweh’s words, in the ears of the people in Yahweh’s house on the fast day. Also you shall read them in the ears of all Judah who come out of their cities.
7 Måske når deres klage HERRENs Åsyn, måske omvender de sig hver fra sin onde Vej; thi stor er Vreden og Harmen, som HERREN har udtalt mod dette Folk."
It may be they will present their supplication before Yahweh, and will each return from his evil way; for Yahweh has pronounced great anger and wrath against this people.”
8 Og Baruk, Nerijas Søn, gjorde ganske som Profeten Jeremias pålagde ham, og oplæste HERRENs Ord af Bogen i HERRENs Hus.
Baruch the son of Neriah did according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, reading in the book Yahweh’s words in Yahweh’s house.
9 I Josiass Søns, Kong Jojakim af Judas, femte Regeringsår i den niende Måned udråbte alt Folket i Jerusalem og alt Folket, der fra Judas Byer kom ind til Jerusalem, en Faste for HERREN.
Now in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, in the ninth month, all the people in Jerusalem and all the people who came from the cities of Judah to Jerusalem, proclaimed a fast before Yahweh.
10 Da oplæste Baruk for alt Folket Jeremiass Ord af Bogen i HERRENs Hus, i Gemarjahus, Statsskriveren Sjafans Søns, Kammer i den øvre Forgård ved Indgangen til HERRENs Huss nye Port.
Then Baruch read the words of Jeremiah from the book in Yahweh’s house, in the room of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the upper court, at the entry of the new gate of Yahweh’s house, in the ears of all the people.
11 Da nu Mika, en Søn af Sjatans Søn Gemarjahu, havde hørt HERRENs Ord oplæse af Bogen,
When Micaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard out of the book all Yahweh’s words,
12 gik han ned i Kongens Hus til Statsskriverens Kammer, hvor han traf alle Fyrsterne siddende, Statsskriveren Elisjama, Delaja Sjemajas Søn, Elnatan Akbors Søn, Gemarjahu Sjafans Søn, Zidkija Hananjas Søn og alle de andre Fyrster;
he went down into the king’s house, into the scribe’s room; and behold, all the princes were sitting there, Elishama the scribe, Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, Elnathan the son of Achbor, Gemariah the son of Shaphan, Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.
13 og Mika meldte dem alt, had han havde hørt, da Baruk læste Bogen op for Folket.
Then Micaiah declared to them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read the book in the ears of the people.
14 Da sendte alle Fyrsterne Jehudi, en Søn af Netanja, en Søn af Sjelemja, en Søn af Kusji, til Baruk og lod sige: "Tag Bogrullen, du læste op for Folket, og kom her ned!" Så tog Baruk, Nerijas Søn, Bogrullen og kom til dem.
Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, “Take in your hand the scroll in which you have read in the ears of the people, and come.” So Baruch the son of Neriah took the scroll in his hand, and came to them.
15 De sagde til ham: "Sæt dig og læs den for os!" Og Baruk læste for dem.
They said to him, “Sit down now, and read it in our hearing.” So Baruch read it in their hearing.
16 Men da de havde hørt alle disse Ord, så de rædselslagne på hverandre og sagde: "Alt det må vi sige Kongen."
Now when they had heard all the words, they turned in fear one toward another, and said to Baruch, “We will surely tell the king of all these words.”
17 Og de spurgte Baruk: "Sig os, hvorledes du kom til at optegne alle disse Ord!"
They asked Baruch, saying, “Tell us now, how did you write all these words at his mouth?”
18 Baruk svarede: "Jeremias foresagde mig alle Ordene, og jeg optegnede dem i Bogen med Blæk."
Then Baruch answered them, “He dictated all these words to me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ink in the book.”
19 Så sagde Fyrsterne til Baruk: "Gå hen og gem eder, du og Jeremias, og lad ingen vide, hvor I er!"
Then the princes said to Baruch, “You and Jeremiah go hide. Don’t let anyone know where you are.”
20 Efter så at have lagt Bogrullen til Side i Statsskriveren Elisjamas Kammer kom de til Kongen i hans Stue og sagde ham alt.
They went in to the king into the court, but they had laid up the scroll in the room of Elishama the scribe. Then they told all the words in the hearing of the king.
21 Så sendte Kongen Jehudi hen at hente Bogrullen i Statsskriveren Elisjamas Kammer; og Jehudi læste den op for Kongen og alle Fyrsterne, der stod om Kongen.
So the king sent Jehudi to get the scroll, and he took it out of the room of Elishama the scribe. Jehudi read it in the hearing of the king, and in the hearing of all the princes who stood beside the king.
22 Kongen sad i Vinterhuset med et brændende Kulbækken foran sig;
Now the king was sitting in the winter house in the ninth month, and there was a fire in the brazier burning before him.
23 og hver Gang Jehudi havde læst tre fire Spalter, skar Kongen dem af med Statsskriverens Pennekniv og kastede dem på Ilden i Bækkenet, indtil hele Bogrullen var fortæret af Ilden i Bækkenet.
When Jehudi had read three or four columns, the king cut it with the penknife, and cast it into the fire that was in the brazier, until all the scroll was consumed in the fire that was in the brazier.
24 Og hverken Kongen eller nogen af hans Folk blev rædselslagen eller sønderrev deres Klæder, da de hørte alle disse Ord;
The king and his servants who heard all these words were not afraid, and didn’t tear their garments.
25 men skønt Elnafan, Delaja og Gemarjahu bad Kongen ikke brænde Bogrullen, hørte han dem ikke.
Moreover Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the scroll; but he would not listen to them.
26 Derpå bød Kongen Kongesønnen Jerameel, Seraja Azriels Søn og Sjelemja Abdeels Søn at gribe Skriveren Baruk og Profeten Jeremias; men HERREN skjulte dem.
The king commanded Jerahmeel the king’s son, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to arrest Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet; but Yahweh hid them.
27 Men da Kongen havde brændt Bogrullen med de Ord, Baruk havde optegnet efter Jeremiass Mund, kom HERRENs Ord til Jeremias således:
Then Yahweh’s word came to Jeremiah, after the king had burned the scroll, and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, saying,
28 "Tag dig en anden Bogrulle og optegn i den alle de Ord, som stod i den første Bogrulle, den, Kong Jojakim af Juda brændte.
“Take again another scroll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first scroll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah has burned.
29 Og til Kong Jojakim af Juda skal du sige: Så siger HERREN: Du brændte denne Bogrulle og sagde: Hvorfor skrev du i den: Babels Konge skal komme og ødelægge dette Land og udrydde både Folk og Fæ?
Concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah you shall say, ‘Yahweh says: “You have burned this scroll, saying, ‘Why have you written therein, saying, “The king of Babylon will certainly come and destroy this land, and will cause to cease from there man and animal”?’”
30 Derfor, så siger HERREN om Kong Jojakim af Juda: Han skal ikke have nogen Mand til at sidde på Davids Trone, og hans Lig skal slænges hen og gives Dagens Hede og Nattens Kulde i Vold;
Therefore Yahweh says concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah: “He will have no one to sit on David’s throne. His dead body will be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.
31 jeg vil hjemsøge ham, hans Afkom og hans Tjenere for deres Brøde og bringe over dem og Jerusalems Borgere og Judas Mænd al den Ulykke, jeg har udtalt over dem, uden at de vilde høre."
I will punish him, his offspring, and his servants for their iniquity. I will bring on them, on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and on the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them, but they didn’t listen.”’”
32 Så tog Jeremias en anden Bogrulle og gav den til Skriveren Baruk, Nerijas Søn; og han optegnede i den efter Jeremiass Mund alle Ordene fra den Bog, Kong Jojakim af Juda havde brændt. Og flere lignende Ord lagdes til.
Then Jeremiah took another scroll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah, who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire; and many similar words were added to them.
