< Jeremiah 36 >

1 And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, [that] this word came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,
Og det skete i Judas Konge Jojakims, Josias's Søns, fjerde Aar, at dette Ord kom til Jeremias fra Herren:
2 Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spoke unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even unto this day.
Tag din Bogrulle og skriv i den alle de Ord, som jeg har talt til dig om Israel og om Juda og om alle Hedningerne, fra den Dag af, da jeg har talt til dig, fra Josias's Dage og indtil denne Dag.
3 It may be the house of Judah will hear all the evil that I purpose to do unto them, that they may return every man from his evil way, and that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.
Maaske Judas Hus vilde høre al den Ulykke, som jeg tænker at gøre imod dem, for at de kunde omvende sig, hver fra sin onde Vej, og jeg kunde forlade dem deres Misgerninger og deres Synd.
4 And Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Nerijah; and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of Jehovah, which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a book.
Da kaldte Jeremias ad Baruk, Nerias Søn; og Baruk skrev efter Jeremias's Mund alle Herrens Ord, som han havde talt til ham, i Bogrullen.
5 And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut up, I cannot go into the house of Jehovah; but go thou in,
Og Jeremias befalede Baruk og sagde: Jeg er forhindret, jeg kan ikke komme til Herrens Hus.
6 and read in the roll, which thou hast written from my mouth, the words of Jehovah in the ears of the people in the house of Jehovah upon the fast day; and thou shalt also read them in the ears of all Judah that come from their cities.
Men gak du og læs op af Rullen, som du har skrevet efter min Mund, Herrens Ord for Folkets Øren i Herrens Hus paa Fastedagen; ogsaa for Ørene af alle Judas Folk, som ere komne op fra deres Stæder, skal du læse dem.
7 It may be they will present their supplication before Jehovah, and that they will return every one from his evil way; for great is the anger and the fury that Jehovah hath pronounced against this people.
Maaske deres ydmyge Begæring kunde komme ind for Herrens Ansigt, og de maatte omvende sig, hver fra sin onde Vej; thi stor er Vreden og Fortørnelsen, som Herren har udtalt imod dette Folk.
8 And Baruch the son of Nerijah did according to all that the prophet Jeremiah commanded him, reading in the book the words of Jehovah in Jehovah's house.
Og Baruk, Nerias Søn, gjorde efter alt det, som Profeten Jeremias havde befalet ham, om at han skulde læse af Bogen Herrens Ord i Herrens Hus.
9 And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, in the ninth month, [that] they proclaimed a fast before Jehovah, for all the people in Jerusalem, and for all the people that came from the cities of Judah to Jerusalem.
Og det skete i Judas Konge Jojakims, Josias's Søns, femte Aar, i den niende Maaned, at alt Folket i Jerusalem og alt Folket, som var kommet fra Judas Stæder til Jerusalem, udraabte en Faste for Herrens Ansigt.
10 And Baruch read in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of Jehovah, in the chamber of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the upper court, at the entry of the new gate of the house of Jehovah, in the ears of all the people.
Og Baruk læste Jeremias's Ord op af Bogen, i Herrens Hus, i Skriveren Gemarjas, Safans Søns, Kammer, i den øverste Forgaard, ved Indgangen igennem den nye Port paa Herrens Hus, for hele Folkets Øren.
11 And Micah the son of Gemariah the son of Shaphan heard out of the book all the words of Jehovah;
Og Mikaja, Gemarjas Søn, Safans Sønnesøn, hørte alle Herrens Ord i Bogen.
12 and he went down to the king's house, into the scribe's chamber, and behold, all the princes 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 princes.
Og han gik ned til Kongens Hus til Skriverens Kammer, og se, der sade alle Fyrsterne: Skriveren Elisama og Delaja, Semajas Søn, og Elnatan, Akbors Søn, og Gemarja, Safans Søn, og Zedekias, Hananjas Søn, ja, alle Fyrsterne.
13 And Micah declared unto them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read in the book in the ears of the people.
Og Mikaja forkyndte dem alle Ordene, som han havde hørt, der Baruk læste op af Bogen for Folkets øren.
14 And all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, unto Baruch, saying, Take in thy hand the roll in which thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come. And Baruch the son of Nerijah took the roll in his hand, and came unto them.
Da sendte alle Fyrsterne Judi, en Søn af Netanja, der var en Søn af Selemja, der var en Søn af Kusi, til Baruk, og lode sige: Tag den Rulle, af hvilken du læste op for Folkets Øren, i din Haand og kom hid; og Baruk, Nerias Søn, tog Rullen i sin Haand og kom til dem.
15 And they said unto him, Sit down now, and read it in our ears. And Baruch read [it] in their ears.
Og de sagde til ham: Sæt dig nu og læs den for vore Øren; og Baruk læste den for deres Øren.
16 And it came to pass, when they heard all the words, they turned in fear one toward another, and said unto Baruch, We will certainly report to the king all these words.
Og det skete, der de hørte alle disse Ord, forfærdedes de, den ene for den anden; og de sagde til Baruk: Vi maa forkynde Kongen alle disse Ord.
17 And they asked Baruch, saying, Tell us now, How didst thou write all these words from his mouth?
Og de spurgte Baruk og sagde: Giv os dog til Kende, hvorledes du skrev alle disse Ord efter hans Mund?
18 And Baruch said unto them, He pronounced all these words unto me with his mouth, and I wrote [them] with ink in the book.
Og Baruk sagde til dem: Han foresagde mig alle disse Ord af sin Mund, medens jeg skrev dem i Bogen med Blæk.
19 And the princes said unto Baruch, Go, hide thee, thou and Jeremiah; that none may know where ye are.
Da sagde Fyrsterne til Baruk: Gak hen, skjul dig, du og Jeremias, og lad ingen vide, hvor I ere.
20 And they went in unto the king into the court, but they laid up the roll in the chamber of Elishama the scribe; and they told all the words in the ears of the king.
Og de kom til Kongen i Forgaarden, da de havde henlagt Rullen i Skriveren Elisamas Kammer, og de forkyndte alle Ordene for Kongens Øren.
21 And the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll, and he fetched it out of the chamber of Elishama the scribe. And Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the princes that stood beside the king.
Da sendte Kongen Judi for at hente Rullen, og han tog den fra Skriveren Elisamas Kammer; og Judi læste den op for Kongens Øren og for alle de Fyrsters Øren, som stode hos Kongen.
22 Now the king was sitting in the winter-house in the ninth month, and with the fire-pan burning before him.
Og Kongen sad i Vinterhuset, i den niende Maaned, medens Ildbækkenet stod med Gløder for hans Ansigt.
23 And it came to pass, that when Jehudi had read three or four columns, he cut it with the scribe's knife, and cast it into the fire that was in the pan until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was in the pan.
Og det skete, der Judi havde læst tre eller fire Stykker, skar han dem af med Skriverens Kniv og kastede dem i Ilden, som var paa Bækkenet, indtil den hele Rulle blev opbrændt i Ilden, som var paa Bækkenet.
24 And they were not afraid, nor rent their garments, [neither] the king nor any of his servants that heard all these words.
Og de forfærdedes ikke og sønderreve ikke deres Klæder, hverken Kongen eller nogen af hans Tjenere, da de hørte alle disse Ord;
25 Moreover, Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the roll; but he would not hear them.
og uagtet Elnatan og Delaja og Gemarja bade Kongen, at han ikke maatte opbrænde Rullen, hørte han dem dog ikke.
26 And the king commanded Jerahmeel the son of Hammelech, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet; but Jehovah hid them.
Og Kongen bød Jerameel, Meleks Søn, og Seraja, Afriels Søn, og Selemja, Abdeels Søn, at gribe Skriveren Baruk og Profeten Jeremias; men Herren skjulte dem.
27 And after that the king had burned the roll, and the words that Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, saying,
Og Herrens Ord kom til Jeremias, efter at Kongen havde opbrændt Rullen med Ordene, som Baruk havde skrevet efter Jeremias's Mund; det lød saaledes:
28 Take thee again another roll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first roll which Jehoiakim the king of Judah hath burned.
Tag dig igen en anden Rulle, og skriv i den alle de forrige Ord, som stode i den forrige Rulle, hvilken Jojakim, Judas Konge, har opbrændt.
29 And thou shalt say to Jehoiakim king of Judah, Thus saith Jehovah: Thou hast burned this roll, saying, Why hast thou written therein, saying, The king of Babylon shall certainly come and destroy this land, and shall cause to cease from it man and beast?
Og om Jojakim, Judas Konge skal du sige: Saa siger Herren: Du opbrændte denne Rulle og sagde: Hvorfor skrev du saaledes deri: Kongen af Babel skal komme og ødelægge dette Land og udrydde baade Folk og Fæ deraf?
30 Therefore thus saith Jehovah concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah: He shall have none to sit upon the throne of David; and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.
Derfor, saa siger Herren om Jojakim, Judas Konge: For ham skal der ingen være, som sidder paa Davids Trone, og hans døde Krop skal være henkastet for Heden om Dagen og for Frosten om Natten.
31 And I will visit their iniquity upon him, and upon his seed, and upon his servants; and I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them; and they have not hearkened.
Og jeg vil hjemsøge ham og hans Sæd og hans Tjenere for deres Misgerning, og jeg vil bringe over dem og over Jerusalems Indbyggere og over Judas Mænd al den Ulykke, som jeg har udtalt over dem, uden at de vilde høre.
32 And Jeremiah took another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Nerijah; and he wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah, all the words of the book that Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire; and there were added besides unto them many like words.
Da tog Jeremias en anden Rulle og gav Skriveren Baruk, Nerias Søn, den, og han skrev i den efter Jeremias's Mund alle Ordene fra den Bog, som Jojakim, Kongen i Juda, havde opbrændt i Ilden; og der blev desuden endnu tillagte mange lignende Ord.
