Jeremiah 19
1 Thus sayth the Lord, Goe, and buy an earthen bottel of a potter, and take of the ancients of the people, and of the ancients of the Priests,
Tako govori Gospod: »Pojdi in dobi si lončarjev vrč in vzemi od starcev izmed ljudstva in od starcev izmed duhovnikov;
2 And goe forth vnto the valley of Ben-hinnom, which is by the entrie of the East gate: and thou shalt preache there the wordes, that I shall tell thee,
in pojdi naprej v dolino sina Hinómovega, ki je pri vhodu vzhodnih velikih vrat in tam razglasi besede, ki ti jih bom povedal
3 And shalt say, Heare yee the worde of the Lord, O Kings of Iudah, and inhabitantes of Ierusalem, Thus sayth the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, Behold, I will bring a plague vpon this place, the which whosoeuer heareth, his eares shall tingle.
in reci: ›Poslušajte besedo od Gospoda, oh Judovi kralji in prebivalci Jeruzalema: ›Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Glejte, privedel bom zlo nad ta kraj, kdorkoli bo slišal o njem, mu bo v ušesih zvenelo.
4 Because they haue forsaken me, and prophaned this place, and haue burnt incense in it vnto other gods, whome neyther they, nor their fathers haue knowen, nor the Kings of Iudah (they haue filled this place also with the blood of innocents,
Ker so me zapustili in odtujili ta kraj in na njem zažigali kadilo drugim bogovom, ki jih niti oni niti njihovi očetje niti Judovi kralji niso poznali in so ta kraj napolnili s krvjo nedolžnih;
5 And they haue built the hie places of Baal, to burne their sonnes with fire for burnt offrings vnto Baal, which I commanded not, nor spake it, neither came it into my minde)
zgradili so tudi Báalove visoke kraje, da svoje sinove sežigajo z ognjem za žgalne daritve Báalu, kar jim nisem zapovedal niti tega nisem govoril niti mi to ni prišlo na um.
6 Therefore behold, the dayes come, sayth the Lord, that this place shall no more be called Topheth, nor ye valley of Ben-hinnom, but the valley of slaughter.
Zato, glejte, pridejo dnevi, ‹ govori Gospod, ›ko ta kraj ne bo več imenovan Tofet niti Dolina sina Hinómovega, temveč Dolina pokola.
7 And I will bring the counsell of Iudah and Ierusalem to nought in this place, and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of them that seeke their liues: and their carkeises will I giue to be meate for ye foules of the heauen, and to the beastes of the fielde.
Nasvet Juda in Jeruzalema bom na tem kraju naredil prazen in povzročil jim bom, da padejo pod mečem pred svojimi sovražniki in po rokah tistih, ki jim strežejo po življenju. Njihova trupla bom izročil, da bodo hrana perjadi neba in zemeljskim zverem.
8 And I will make this citie desolate and an hissing, so that euery one that passeth thereby, shalbe astonished and hisse because of all ye plagues thereof.
To mesto bom naredil zapuščeno in sikanje. Vsak, kdor bo šel mimo, bo osupel in sikal zaradi vseh njegovih nadlog.
9 And I will feede the with the flesh of their sonnes and with the flesh of their daughters, and euery one shall eate the flesh of his friende in the siege and straitnesse, wherewith their enemies that seeke their liues, shall hold them strait.
Povzročil jim bom, da jedo meso svojih sinov in meso svojih hčera in vsak bo jedel meso svojega prijatelja, v obleganju in strogosti, s katero jih bodo stisnili njihovi sovražniki in tisti, ki jim strežejo po življenju.
10 Then shalt thou breake the bottell in the sight of the men that go with thee,
Potem boš razbil vrč pred očmi mož, ki gredo s teboj
11 And shalt say vnto them, Thus saith ye Lord of hostes, Euen so will I breake this people and this citie, as one breaketh a potters vessell, that cannot be made whole againe, and they shall bury them in Topheth till there be no place to bury.
in jim boš rekel: ›Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki: ›Celo tako bom zlomil to ljudstvo in to mesto, kakor nekdo razbija lončarjevo posodo, da ne more biti narejena ponovno cela. Pokopavali jih bodo v Tofetu, dokler ne bo nobenega prostora za pokop.
12 Thus will I doe vnto this place, sayth the Lord, and to the inhabitantes thereof, and I will make this citie like Topheth.
Tako bom storil temu kraju, ‹ govori Gospod ›in njegovim prebivalcem in to mesto bom naredil celó kot Tofet.
13 For the houses of Ierusalem, and the houses of the Kings of Iudah shalbe defiled as the place of Topheth, because of al the houses vpon whose roofes they haue burnt incense vnto all the host of heauen, and haue powred out drinke offerings vnto other gods.
Hiše Jeruzalema in hiše Judovih kraljev bodo omadeževane kakor kraj Tofet, zaradi vseh hiš, na čigar strehah so zažigali kadilo vsej vojski neba in izlivali pitne daritve drugim bogovom.‹«
14 Then came Ieremiah from Topheth, where the Lord had sent him to prophecie, and he stood in the court of the Lordes house, and sayde to all the people,
Potem je iz Tofeta prišel Jeremija, kamor ga je poslal Gospod, da prerokuje. Stopil je na dvor Gospodove hiše in vsemu ljudstvu rekel:
15 Thus saith the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, Beholde, I will bring vpon this citie, and vpon all her townes, all the plagues that I haue pronounced against it, because they haue hardened their neckes, and would not heare my wordes.
»Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Glejte, nad to mesto in nad vse njegove kraje bom privedel vse zlo, ki sem ga proglasil zoper njega, ker so otrdili svoje vratove, da ne bi slišali mojih besed.«
