Jeremiah 30
1 This is the message that came to Jeremiah from the Lord:
Beseda, ki je prišla Jeremiju od Gospoda, rekoč:
2 This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Write down in a book everything I've told you.
»Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog, rekoč: ›V knjigo si zapiši vse besede, ki sem ti jih govoril.
3 Look, the time is coming, declares the Lord, when I will bring back my people Israel and Judah from captivity, declares the Lord. I will bring them back to the country I gave to their forefathers, and they will own it again.
Kajti glej, prihajajo dnevi, ‹ govori Gospod, ›da bom ponovno privedel ujetništvo svojega ljudstva Izraela in Juda, ‹ govori Gospod ›in povzročil jim bom, da se vrnejo v deželo, ki sem jo dal njihovim očetom in oni jo bodo vzeli v last.‹«
4 This what the Lord said about Israel and Judah.
To so besede, ki jih je Gospod govoril glede Izraela in glede Juda.
5 This is what the Lord says: Hear the cries of panic, cries of fear, not peace.
Kajti tako govori Gospod: »Slišali smo glas trepetanja, strahu in ne miru.
6 Think about it! Can men give birth? No. So why do I see every man holding his stomach with his hands like a woman in labor. Why is every face white as a sheet?
Vprašajte torej in poglejte, ali je mož v porodnih mukah z otrokom? Zakaj vidim vsakega moža s svojimi rokami na svojih ledjih, kakor žensko v porodnih mukah in so vsi obrazi postali bledi?
7 What a terrible day it will be—a day like never before! This is the time of trouble for Jacob's descendants, but they will be rescued from it.
Ojoj! Kajti ta dan je velik, tako da mu ni nobeden podoben. To je celo čas Jakobove stiske, toda rešen bo iz nje.
8 On that day, declares the Lord Almighty, I will break the yoke from their necks and tear off their chains. Foreigners won't make them slaves anymore.
Kajti to se bo zgodilo na ta dan, « govori Gospod nad bojevniki, » da bom zlomil njegov jarem s tvojega vratu in raztrgal tvoje vezi in tujcem ne bo več sužnjeval,
9 They will serve the Lord their God, and their king, David's descendant whom I will give them.
temveč bodo služili Gospodu, svojemu Bogu in Davidu, svojemu kralju, ki jim ga bom vzdignil.
10 As far as you're concerned, my servant Jacob, don't be afraid, declares the Lord, Israel, don't be discouraged. I promise to save you from your distant places of exile, your descendants from the countries where they're being held captive. The descendants of Jacob will go home to a quiet and comfortable life, free from any threats.
Zato se ne boj, oh moj služabnik Jakob, ‹ govori Gospod; ›niti ne bodi zaprepaden, oh Izrael, kajti, glej, rešil te bom od daleč in tvoje seme iz dežele njihovega ujetništva. Jakob se bo vrnil in bo v miru in bo tiho in nihče ga ne bo prestrašil.
11 I am with you and I will save you, declares the Lord. Even though I'm going to completely destroy all the nations where I scattered you, I won't completely destroy you. However, I will discipline you as you deserve, and you can be sure I won't leave you unpunished.
Kajti jaz sem s teboj, ‹ govori Gospod, ›da te rešim. Čeprav naredim poln konec vsem narodom, kamor sem te razkropil, vendar iz tebe ne bom naredil polnega konca, temveč te bom grajal po meri in te ne bom pustil povsem nekaznovanega.‹
12 This is what the Lord says: You have a wound that cannot be healed, you have a terrible injury.
Kajti tako govori Gospod: ›Tvoja poškodba je nezaceljiva in tvoja rana je boleča.
13 There's no one to take care of your case, no cure for your sores, no healing for you.
Nobenega ni, da zagovarja tvoj primer, da bi bil lahko obvezan. Nobenih zdravilnih zdravil nimaš.
14 All your lovers have forgotten about you; they don't bother looking for you anymore, because I have beaten you as if I were your enemy, the discipline of a cruel person, because of how wicked you are, because of your many sins.
Vsi tvoji ljubimci so te pozabili. Ne iščejo te; kajti ranil sem te z rano sovražnika, s kaznovanjem krutega, zaradi množice tvojih krivičnosti, ker so tvoji grehi narasli.
15 Why are you crying over your wound? You pain can't be cured. I did this to you because of how wicked you are, because of your many sins.
Zakaj vpiješ zaradi svoje stiske? Tvoja bridkost je neozdravljiva zaradi množice tvoje krivičnosti. Ker so tvoji grehi narasli, sem ti jaz storil te stvari.
16 Even so, everyone who destroys you will be destroyed. All your enemies, every last one, will be sent into exile. Those who plundered you will be plundered, and all who robbed you will be robbed.
Zatorej bodo vsi, ki te požirajo, požrti, in vsi tvoji nasprotniki, vsak izmed njih, bodo šli v ujetništvo, in tisti, ki te plenijo, bodo plen in vse to ukradeno blago na tebi bom dal za plen.
17 But I will give you back your health and heal your wounds, declares the Lord, because people say you've been abandoned and that no one cares about you, Zion.
Kajti jaz ti bom obnovil zdravje in jaz te bom ozdravil tvojih ran, ‹ govori Gospod, ›ker so te imenovali Izobčenec, rekoč: ›To je Sion, ki ga noben človek ne išče.‹
18 This is what the Lord says: I will bring Jacob's descendants back to their homes and have mercy on their families. The city will be rebuilt on top of its ruins, and the palace once again stand where it should.
Tako govori Gospod: ›Glej, ponovno bom privedel ujetništvo Jakobovih šotorov in se usmilil njegovih bivališč, in mesto bo zgrajeno na svojem lastnem kupu in palača bo ostala po svoji lastni navadi.
19 People will be singing songs of thanks, the sounds of celebration. I will increase their number—they will not become less. I will honor them—they will not be treated as insignificant.
Iz njih bo izšlo zahvaljevanje in glas tistih, ki se veselijo. Pomnožil jih bom in ne bo jih malo; prav tako jih bom proslavil in ne bodo majhni.
20 Their children will be looked after like they used to be. I will make their nation strong again, and punish anyone who attacks them.
Tudi njihovi otroci bodo kakor poprej in njihova skupnost bo utrjena pred menoj, kaznoval pa bom vse, ki jih zatirajo.
21 Their leader will be from their own country, their ruler will be chosen from among them. I will invite him to come close to me, and he will do so, for would anyone dare to approach me without being asked? declares the Lord.
Njihovi plemiči bodo izmed njih in njihov voditelj bo izšel iz njihove srede. Povzročil mu bom, da se približa in pristopil bo k meni, kajti kdo je ta, ki daje svojemu srcu jamstvo, da se mi približa?‹ govori Gospod.
22 You will be my people, and I will be your God.
›Vi boste moje ljudstvo in jaz bom vaš Bog.‹«
23 Watch out! The Lord has sent out a furious storm, a tornado swirling around the heads of the wicked.
Glej, vrtinčast veter od Gospoda gre naprej z razjarjenostjo, nenehen vrtinčast veter; boleče bo padel na glavo zlobnih.
24 The Lord's anger won't fade until he's finished doing everything he wants. Only then will you really understand.
Gospodova kruta jeza se ne bo vrnila, dokler ne bo tega storil in dokler ne izpolni namene svojega srca. V zadnjih dneh boste to preudarili.
