< Jeremiah 36 >

1 And it happened in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, the king of Judah: it happened that this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying:
I Josias's Søns, Kong Jojakim af Judas, fjerde Regeringsaar kom dette Ord til Jeremias fra HERREN:
2 “Take the volume of a book, and you shall write in it all the words that I have spoken to you against Israel and Judah, and against all the nations, from the day when I first spoke to you, from the days of Josiah, even to this day.
»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 Josias's Dage og til den Dag i Dag.
3 Perhaps it may be that the house of Judah, upon hearing all the evils that I have decided to do to them, may return, each one from his wicked way, and then I will forgive their iniquity and their sin.”
Maaske vil Judas Hus mærke sig al den Ulykke, jeg har i Sinde at gøre dem, for at de maa omvende sig hver fra sin onde Vej, saa jeg kan tilgive deres Brøde og Synd.«
4 Therefore, Jeremiah called Baruch, the son of Neriah, and Baruch wrote, from the mouth of Jeremiah, all the words of the Lord, which he had spoken to him, in the volume of a book.
Saa tilkaldte Jeremias Baruk, Nerijas Søn, og Baruk optegnede i Bogrullen efter Jeremias's Mund alle de Ord, HERREN havde talet til ham.
5 And Jeremiah instructed Baruch, saying: “I am confined, and so I am unable to enter into the house of the Lord.
Derpaa sagde Jeremias til Baruk: »Jeg er hindret i at gaa ind i HERRENS Hus;
6 Therefore, you shall enter and read from the volume, in which you have written from my mouth the words of the Lord, in the hearing of the people in the house of the Lord on the day of the fast. Moreover, you shall also read them in the hearing of all those of Judah who are arriving from their cities.
men gaa du ind og læs HERRENS Ord op af Bogrullen, som du skrev efter min Mund, for Folket i HERRENS Hus paa en Fastedag; ogsaa for alle Judæere, der kommer ind fra deres Byer, skal du læse dem.
7 Perhaps it may happen that they pray in the sight of the Lord, and each one may return from his wicked way. For great is the fury and indignation that the Lord has declared against this people.”
Maaske naar deres klage HERRENS Aasyn, maaske omvender de sig hver fra sin onde Vej; thi stor er Vreden og Harmen, som HERREN har udtalt mod dette Folk.«
8 And Baruch, the son of Neriah, acted in accord with all that Jeremiah, the prophet, had instructed him, reading from the volume the words of the Lord, in the house of the Lord.
Og Baruk, Nerijas Søn, gjorde ganske som Profeten Jeremias paalagde ham, og oplæste HERRENS Ord af Bogen i HERRENS Hus.
9 And it happened that, in the fifth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, in the ninth month, they proclaimed a fast, in the sight of the Lord, to all the people in Jerusalem, and to the entire multitude which had flowed together, from the cities of Judah, into Jerusalem.
I Josias's Søns, Kong Jojakim af Judas, femte Regeringsaar i den niende Maaned udraabte alt Folket i Jerusalem og alt Folket, der fra Judas Byer kom ind til Jerusalem, en Faste for HERREN.
10 And Baruch read from the volume the words of Jeremiah in the house of the Lord, at the treasury of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, the scribe, in the upper vestibule, at the entrance to the new gate of the house of the Lord, in the hearing of all the people.
Da oplæste Baruk for alt Folket Jeremias's Ord af Bogen i HERRENS Hus, i Gemarjahus, Statsskriveren Sjafans Søns, Kammer i den øvre Forgaard ved Indgangen til HERRENS Hus's nye Port.
11 And when Micaiah, the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard all the words of the Lord from the book,
Da nu Mika, en Søn af Sjafans Søn Gemarjahu, havde hørt HERRENS Ord oplæse af Bogen,
12 he descended to the house of the king, to the treasury of the scribe. And behold, all the leaders were sitting there: Elishama, the scribe, and Delaiah, the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan, the son of Achbor, and Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah, the son of Hananiah, and all the leaders.
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;
13 And Micaiah announced to them all the words that he had heard when Baruch read from the volume to the ears of the people.
og Mika meldte dem alt, hvad han havde hørt, da Baruk læste Bogen op for Folket.
14 And so, all the leaders sent Jehudi, the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, “Take in your hand the volume, from which you have read in the hearing of the people, and come.” Therefore, Baruch, the son of Neriah, took the volume in his hand, and he went to them.
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!« Saa tog Baruk, Nerijas Søn, Bogrullen og kom til dem.
15 And they said to him, “Sit and read these things in our hearing.” And Baruch read in their hearing.
De sagde til ham: »Sæt dig og læs den for os!« Og Baruk læste for dem.
16 Therefore, when they had heard all the words, each one looked at his neighbor in astonishment, and they said to Baruch: “We ought to report all these words to the king.”
Men da de havde hørt alle disse Ord, saa de rædselsslagne paa hverandre og sagde: »Alt det maa vi sige Kongen.«
17 And they questioned him, saying, “Describe to us how you wrote all these words from his mouth.”
Og de spurgte Baruk: »Sig os, hvorledes du kom til at optegne alle disse Ord!«
18 Then Baruch said to them: “He was speaking with his mouth, as if reading to me. And I wrote in a volume with ink.”
Baruk svarede: »Jeremias foresagde mig alle Ordene, og jeg optegnede dem i Bogen med Blæk.«
19 And the leaders said to Baruch: “Go away and hide, you and Jeremiah, and let no one know where you are.”
Saa sagde Fyrsterne til Baruk: »Gaa hen og gem eder, du og Jeremias, og lad ingen vide, hvor I er!«
20 And they entered to the king, in the court. Furthermore, they stored the volume in the treasury of Elishama, the scribe. And they announced all the words in the hearing of the king.
Efter saa at have lagt Bogrullen til Side i Statsskriveren Elisjamas Kammer kom de til Kongen i hans Stue og sagde ham alt.
21 And the king sent Jehudi to take the volume. And bringing it from the treasury of Elishama, the scribe, he read it in the hearing of the king and of all the leaders who were standing around the king.
Saa 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.
22 Now the king was sitting in the winter house, in the ninth month. And there was a hearth placed before him, filled with burning coals.
Kongen sad i Vinterhuset med et brændende Kulbækken foran sig;
23 And when Jehudi had read three or four pages, he cut it with a small knife, and he threw it into the fire which was upon the hearth, until the entire volume was consumed by the fire which was upon the hearth.
og hver Gang Jehudi havde læst tre fire Spalter, skar Kongen dem af med Statsskriverens Pennekniv og kastede dem paa Ilden i Bækkenet, indtil hele Bogrullen var fortæret af Ilden i Bækkenet.
24 And the king and all his servants, who had heard all these words, were not afraid, and they did not rend their garments.
Og hverken Kongen eller nogen af hans Folk blev rædselsslagen eller sønderrev deres Klæder, da de hørte alle disse Ord;
25 Yet truly, Elnathan, and Delaiah, and Gemariah contradicted the king, so that he might not burn the book. But he did not listen to them.
men skønt Elnatan, Delaja og Gemarjahu bad Kongen ikke brænde Bogrullen, hørte han dem ikke.
26 And the king instructed Jerahmeel, the son of Amelech, and Seraiah, the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah, the son of Abdeel, so that they would apprehend Baruch, the scribe, and Jeremiah, the prophet. But the Lord concealed them.
Derpaa bød Kongen Kongesønnen Jerame'el, Seraja Azriels Søn og Sjelemja Abde'els Søn at gribe Skriveren Baruk og Profeten Jeremias; men HERREN skjulte dem.
27 And after the king had burned the volume and the words that Baruch had written from the mouth of Jeremiah, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, the prophet, saying:
Men da Kongen havde brændt Bogrullen med de Ord, Baruk havde optegnet efter Jeremias's Mund, kom HERRENS Ord til Jeremias saaledes:
28 “Again, take another volume and write in it all the former words, which were in the first volume that Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, has burned.
»Tag dig en anden Bogrulle og optegn i den alle de Ord, som stod i den første Bogrulle, den, Kong Jojakim af Juda brændte.
29 And you shall say to Jehoiakim, the king of Judah: Thus says the Lord: You have burned that volume, saying: ‘Why have you written in it, announcing that the king of Babylon will advance quickly, and will devastate this land, and will cause both man and beast to cease from it?’
Og til Kong Jojakim af Juda skal du sige: Saa siger HERREN: Du brændte denne Bogrulle og sagde: Hvorfor skrev du i den: Babels Konge skal komme og ødelægge dette Land og udrydde baade Folk og Fæ?
30 Because of this, thus says the Lord against Jehoiakim, the king of Judah: There will be, from him, no one who may sit upon the throne of David. And his dead body shall be cast out: to the heat by day, and to the frost by night.
Derfor, saa siger HERREN om Kong Jojakim af Juda: Han skal ikke have nogen Mand til at sidde paa Davids Trone, og hans Lig skal slænges hen og gives Dagens Hede og Nattens Kulde i Vold;
31 And I will visit against him, and against his offspring, and against his servants for their iniquities. And I will lead over them, and over the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and over the men of Judah, all the evil that I have declared against them, for they have not listened.”
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.«
32 Then Jeremiah took up another volume, and he gave it to Baruch, the son of Neriah, the scribe, who wrote in it, from the mouth of Jeremiah, all the words of the book that Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, had burned with fire. And moreover, there were many more words added than there had been before.
Saa tog Jeremias en anden Bogrulle og gav den til Skriveren Baruk, Nerijas Søn; og han optegnede i den efter Jeremias's Mund alle Ordene fra den Bog, Kong Jojakim af Juda havde brændt. Og flere lignende Ord lagdes til.
