< Jeremiah 49 >
1 About the children of Ammon. These are the words of the Lord: Has Israel no sons? has he no one to take the heritage? why then has Milcom taken Gad for himself, putting his people in its towns?
Glede Amóncev tako govori Gospod: »Mar Izrael nima sinov? Mar nima dediča? Zakaj potem njihovi kralji podedujejo Gad in njegovo ljudstvo prebiva v njegovih mestih.
2 Because of this, see, the days are coming when I will have a cry of war sounded against Rabbah, the town of the children of Ammon; it will become a waste of broken walls, and her daughter-towns will be burned with fire: then Israel will take the heritage of those who took his heritage, says the Lord.
Zatorej, glejte, pridejo dnevi, ‹ govori Gospod, ›ko bom povzročil alarm vojne, da se bo slišal v Rabi Amóncev in ta bo zapuščen kup in njene hčere bodo požgane z ognjem. Potem bo Izrael dedič tistim, ki so bili njegovi dediči, ‹ govori Gospod.
3 Make sounds of grief, O Heshbon, for Ai is wasted; give loud cries, O daughters of Rabbah, and put haircloth round you: give yourselves to weeping, running here and there and wounding yourselves; for Milcom will be taken prisoner together with his rulers and his priests.
Tuli, oh Hešbón, kajti Aj je oplenjen. Jokajte ve Rabine hčere, opašite se z vrečevino; objokujte in tecite sem ter tja pri ograjah; kajti njihov kralj bo šel v ujetništvo skupaj z njegovimi duhovniki in njegovimi princi.
4 Why are you lifted up in pride on account of your valleys, your flowing valley, O daughter ever turning away? who puts her faith in her wealth, saying, Who will come against me?
Zakaj se ponašaš z dolinami, tvoji tekoči dolini, oh odpadla hči, ki si zaupala v svoje zaklade, rekoč: ›Kdo bo prišel k meni?‹
5 See, I will send fear on you, says the Lord, the Lord of armies, from those who are round you on every side; you will be forced out, every man straight before him, and there will be no one to get together the wanderers.
Glej, nadte bom privedel strah, ‹ govori Gospod Bog nad bojevniki, ›od vseh teh, ki bodo okoli tebe. Izgnani boste, vsak človek naravnost naprej in nihče ne bo zbral tistega, ki tava.
6 But after these things, I will let the fate of the children of Ammon be changed, says the Lord.
Potem bom ponovno privedel ujetništvo Amónovih otrok, ‹ govori Gospod.
7 About Edom. This is what the Lord of armies has said. Is there no more wisdom in Teman? have wise suggestions come to an end among men of good sense? has their wisdom completely gone?
Glede Edóma tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki: › Mar v Temánu ni več modrosti? Je nasvet izginil pred razsodnim? Je njihova modrost izginila?
8 Go in flight, go back, take cover in deep places, you who are living in Dedan; for I will send the fate of Edom on him, even the time of his punishment.
Pobegnite, obrnite se nazaj, prebivajte globoko, oh prebivalci Dedána; kajti nadenj bom privedel Ezavovo katastrofo, čas, ko ga bom obiskal.
9 If men came to get your grapes, would they not let some be uncut on the vines? if thieves came by night, would they not make waste till they had enough?
Če pridejo k tebi obiralci grozdja, ali ne bodo pustili nekaj paberkovalnih grozdov? Če tatovi ponoči, bodo uničevali, dokler ne bodo imeli dovolj.
10 I have had Esau searched out, uncovering his secret places, so that he may not keep himself covered: his seed is wasted and has come to an end, and there is no help from his neighbours.
Toda jaz sem naredil Ezava razgaljenega, jaz sem odkril njegove skrite kraje in se ne bo mogel skriti. Njegovo seme je oplenjeno in njegovih bratov, njegovih sosedov in njega ni.
11 Put in my care your children who have no father, and I will keep them safe; and let your widows put their faith in me.
Pusti svoje osirotele otroke, jaz jih bom ohranil žive; in tvoje vdove naj zaupajo vame.‹
12 For the Lord has said, Those for whom the cup was not made ready will certainly be forced to take of it; and are you to go without punishment? you will not be without punishment, but will certainly be forced to take from the cup.
Kajti tako govori Gospod: ›Glej, tisti, katerih sodba ni bila, da pijejo iz čaše, so zagotovo pijani; in ali si ti tisti, ki naj bi odšel čisto nekaznovan? Ne boš odšel nekaznovan, temveč boš zagotovo pil od tega.
13 For I have taken an oath by myself, says the Lord, that Bozrah will become a cause of wonder, a name of shame, a waste and a curse; and all its towns will be waste places for ever.
Kajti prisegel sem sam pri sebi, ‹ govori Gospod, ›da bo Bocra postala opustošenje, graja, opustošenost in prekletstvo in vsa njena mesta bodo neprestane opustošenosti.‹«
14 Word has come to me from the Lord, and a representative has been sent to the nations, to say, Come together and go up against her, and take your places for the fight.
Slišal sem govorico od Gospoda in predstavnik je poslan k poganom, rekoč: »Zberite se skupaj in pridite zoper njo in se vzdignite k bitki.«
15 For see, I have made you small among the nations, looked down on by men.
›Kajti glej, naredil te bom majhnega med pogani in preziranega med ljudmi.
16 ... the pride of your heart has been a false hope, O you who are living in the cracks of the rock, keeping your place on the top of the hill: even if you made your living-place as high as the eagle, I would make you come down, says the Lord.
Tvoja strašnost te je zavedla in ponos tvojega srca, oh ti, ki prebivaš v skalnih razpokah, ki držiš višino hriba. Čeprav bi si svoje gnezdo naredil tako visoko kakor orel, te bom od tam privedel dol, ‹ govori Gospod.
17 And Edom will become a cause of wonder: everyone who goes by will be overcome with wonder, and make sounds of fear at all her punishments.
›Tudi Edóm bo opustošenje. Vsak, kdor gre mimo, bo osupel in sikal bo nad vsemi njegovimi nadlogami.
18 As at the downfall of Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighbouring towns, says the Lord, no man will be living in it, no son of man will have a resting-place there.
Kakor v razdejanju Sódome in Gomóre in njunih sosednjih mest, ‹ govori Gospod, ›noben človek ne bo vzdržal tam niti človeški sin ne bo prebival v tem.
19 See, he will come up like a lion from the thick growth of Jordan against the resting-place of Teman: but I will suddenly make him go in flight from her; and I will put over her the man of my selection: for who is like me? and who will put forward his cause against me? and what keeper of sheep will be able to keep his place before me?
Glej, vzpel se bo kakor lev iz naraščanja Jordana zoper prebivališče močnega. Toda naredil bom, da bo nenadoma pobegnil pred njo. In kdo je izbran mož, da bi ga lahko določil nad njo? Kajti kdo je podoben meni? In kdo mi bo določil čas? In kdo je tisti pastir, ki bo stal pred menoj?
20 For this cause give ear to the decision of the Lord which he has made against Edom, and to his purposes designed against the people of Teman: Truly, they will be pulled away by the smallest of the flock; truly, he will make waste their fields with them.
Zato prisluhnite Gospodovemu nasvetu, ki ga je svetoval zoper Edóm; in njegove namene, ki jih je namenil zoper prebivalce Temána: ›Zagotovo jih bo najmanjši iz tropa izvlekel ven. Zagotovo bo naredil njihova prebivališča opustela z njimi [vred].
21 The earth is shaking with the noise of their fall; their cry is sounding in the Red Sea.
Zemlja je stresena ob hrupu njihovega padca, ob hrupu njihovega krika, ki ga je bilo slišati na Rdečem morju.
22 See, he will come up like an eagle in flight, stretching out his wings against Bozrah: and the hearts of Edom's men of war on that day will be like the heart of a woman in birth-pains.
Glej, prišel bo gor in letel kakor orel in svoji peruti razširil nad Bocro in na ta dan bo srce mogočnih mož iz Edóma kakor srce ženske v njenih ostrih bolečinah.
23 About Damascus. Hamath is put to shame, and Arpad; for the word of evil has come to their ears, their heart in its fear is turned to water, it will not be quiet.
Glede Damaska. Hamát je zbegan in Arpád, kajti slišala sta zle novice. Boječa sta. Tam je bridkost na morju; ta ne more biti utišana.
24 Damascus has become feeble, she is turned to flight, fear has taken her in its grip: pain and sorrows have come on her, as on a woman in birth-pains.
Damask je postal slaboten in se obrača, da pobegne in strah se ga je polastil. Tesnoba in bridkosti so ga prevzele kakor žensko v porodnih mukah.
25 How has the town of praise been wasted, the place of joy!
Kako mesto hvale ni zapuščeno, mesto moje radosti!
26 So her young men will be falling in her streets, and all the men of war will be cut off in that day, says the Lord of armies.
Zato bodo njegovi mladeniči padli na njegovih ulicah in vsi bojevniki bodo iztrebljeni na ta dan, ‹ govori Gospod nad bojevniki.
27 And I will have a fire lighted on the wall of Damascus, burning up the great houses of Ben-hadad.
›Zanetil bom ogenj v zidu Damaska in ta bo použil palače Ben Hadáda.‹
28 About Kedar and the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, overcame. This is what the Lord has said: Up! go against Kedar, and make an attack on the children of the east.
Glede Kedárja in glede Hacórjevih kraljestev, ki jih bo babilonski kralj Nebukadnezar udaril, tako govori Gospod: ›Vstanite, pojdite gor v Kedár in oplenite može vzhoda.
29 Their tents and their flocks they will take; they will take away for themselves their curtains and all their vessels and their camels: they will give a cry to them, Fear on every side.
Njihove šotore in njihove trope bodo odvzeli. K sebi bodo vzeli njihove zavese in vse njihove posode in njihove kamele; in vpili jim bodo: ›Strah je na vsaki strani.‹
30 Go in flight, go wandering far off, take cover in deep places, O people of Hazor, says the Lord; for Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, has made a design against you, he has a purpose against you in mind.
Pobegnite, odpravite se daleč proč, prebivajte globoko, oh vi prebivalci Hacórja, ‹ govori Gospod; ›kajti babilonski kralj Nebukadnezar je zoper vas sprejel nasvet in je zoper vas spočel namen.
31 Up! go against a nation which is living in comfort and without fear of danger, says the Lord, without doors or locks, living by themselves.
Vstani, spravi se gor k premožnemu narodu, ki prebiva brez skrbi, ‹ govori Gospod, ›ki nima niti velikih vrat niti zapahov, ki prebiva sam.
32 And their camels will be taken from them by force, and their great herds will come into the hands of their attackers: those who have the ends of their hair cut I will send in flight to all the winds; and I will send their fate on them from every side, says the Lord.
In njihove kamele bodo plen in množica njihove živine plen, in razkropil jih bom na vse vetrove, tiste, ki so na skrajnih vogalih; in jaz bom privedel njihovo katastrofo od vseh njihovih strani, ‹ govori Gospod.
33 And Hazor will be a hole for jackals, a waste for ever: no one will be living in it, and no son of man will have a resting-place there.
Hacór bo prebivališče za zmaje in opustošenje na veke. Tam ne bo prebival noben človek niti noben človeški sin ne prebiva v njem.‹«
34 The word of the Lord which came to Jeremiah the prophet about Elam, when Zedekiah first became king of Judah, saying,
Beseda od Gospoda, ki je prišla preroku Jeremiju zoper Elám v začetku kraljevanja Judovega kralja Sedekíja, rekoč:
35 This is what the Lord of armies has said: See, I will have the bow of Elam, their chief strength, broken.
»Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki: ›Glej, jaz bom zlomil Elámov lok, njihovo glavno moč.
36 And I will send on Elam four winds from the four quarters of heaven, driving them out to all those winds; there will be no nation into which the wanderers from Elam do not come.
Nad Elám bom privedel štiri vetrove iz štirih četrtin neba in razkropil jih bom proti vsem tem vetrovom; in tam ne bo nobenega naroda, kamor ne bi prišli pregnanci Eláma.
37 And I will let Elam be broken before their haters, and before those who are making designs against their lives: I will send evil on them, even my burning wrath, says the Lord; and I will send the sword after them till I have put an end to them:
Kajti Elámu bom povzročil, da bo zaprepaden pred svojimi sovražniki in pred tistimi, ki jim strežejo po življenju, in nanje bom privedel zlo, celó svojo kruto jezo, ‹ govori Gospod: ›in za njimi bom poslal meč, dokler jih ne bom použil.
38 I will put the seat of my power in Elam, and in Elam I will put an end to kings and rulers, says the Lord.
Svoj prestol bom postavil v Elámu in od tam bom uničil kralja in prince, ‹ govori Gospod.
39 But it will come about that, in the last days, I will let the fate of Elam be changed, says the Lord.
›Toda to se bo zgodilo v zadnjih dneh, da bom ponovno privedel ujetništvo Eláma, ‹ govori Gospod.«
