< Jeremiah 44 >
1 The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews which dwell in the land of Egypt, which dwell at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Noph, and in the country of Pathros, saying,
Beseda, ki je prišla Jeremiju glede vseh Judov, ki prebivajo v egiptovski deželi, ki prebivajo v Migdólu, v Tahpanhésu, v Nofu in v deželi Patrós, rekoč:
2 Thus saith Yhwh of Armies, the God of Israel; Ye have seen all the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of Judah; and, behold, this day they are a desolation, and no man dwelleth therein,
»Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Videli ste vse zlo, ki sem ga privedel nad Jeruzalem in nad vsa Judova mesta, in glejte, ta dan so ta opustošenje in noben človek ne prebiva tam
3 Because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in that they went to burn incense, and to serve other gods, whom they knew not, neither they, ye, nor your fathers.
zaradi njihove zlobnosti, ki so jo zagrešili, da me dražijo do jeze v tem, da so odšli zažigat kadilo in da služijo drugim bogovom, ki jih niso poznali niti oni, da, niti vaši očetje.
4 Howbeit I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, rising early and sending them, saying, Oh, do not this abominable thing that I hate.
Vendar sem vam pošiljal vse svoje služabnike preroke, vzdigujoče zgodaj in jih pošiljal, rekoč: ›O ne storite te gnusne stvari, ki jo sovražim.‹
5 But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear to turn from their wickedness, to burn no incense unto other gods.
Toda niso prisluhnili niti nagnili svojega ušesa, da se odvrnejo od svoje zlobnosti, da ne bi zažigali kadila drugim bogovom.
6 Wherefore my fury and mine anger was poured forth, and was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are wasted and desolate, as at this day.
Zato sta bila moj bes in moja jeza izlita naprej in vžgana v Judovih mestih in na ulicah Jeruzalema; in ta so opustošena in zapuščena kakor ta dan.‹
7 Therefore now thus saith Yhwh, the God of Armies, the God of Israel; Wherefore commit ye this great evil against your souls, to cut off from you man and woman, child and suckling, out of Judah, to leave you none to remain;
Zaradi tega sedaj tako govori Gospod, Bog nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Zakaj ste zagrešili to veliko zlo zoper svoje duše, da izmed sebe iztrebite moškega in žensko, otroka in dojenčka, ven iz Juda, da nikogar ne pustite, da preostane.
8 In that ye provoke me unto wrath with the works of your hands, burning incense unto other gods in the land of Egypt, whither ye be gone to dwell, that ye might cut yourselves off, and that ye might be a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth?
V čem ste me dražili do besa z deli svojih rok, zažigajoč kadilo drugim bogovom v egiptovski deželi, kamor ste odšli, da prebivate, da se lahko sami odrežete in da ste lahko prekletstvo in graja med vsemi narodi zemlje?‹
9 Have ye forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives, which they have committed in the land of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
Mar ste pozabili zlobnost svojih očetov, zlobnost Judovih kraljev, zlobnost njihovih žena, svojo lastno zlobnost in zlobnost svojih žena, ki so jo zagrešili v Judovi deželi in na ulicah Jeruzalema?
10 They are not humbled even unto this day, neither have they feared, nor walked in my law, nor in my statutes, that I set before you and before your fathers.
Niso se ponižali celó do tega dne, niti se niso bali, niti hodili po moji postavi, niti po mojih zakonih, ki sem jih postavil pred vas in vaše očete.
11 Therefore thus saith Yhwh of Armies, the God of Israel; Behold, I will set my face against you for evil, and to cut off all Judah.
Zato tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Glejte, svoj obraz bom naravnal zoper vas za zlo in da iztrebim vsega Juda.
12 And I will take the remnant of Judah, that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, and they shall all be consumed, and fall in the land of Egypt; they shall even be consumed by the sword and by the famine: they shall die, from the least even unto the greatest, by the sword and by the famine: and they shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach.
Vzel bom preostanek Juda, ki so svoje obraze naravnali, da gredo v egiptovsko deželo, da začasno prebivajo tam in vsi bodo použiti in padli v egiptovski deželi; torej použiti bodo z mečem in z lakoto. Umrli bodo, od najmanjših celo do največjih, z mečem in z lakoto, in bodo preziranje in osuplost, prekletstvo in graja.
13 For I will punish them that dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have punished Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence:
Kajti kaznoval bom tiste, ki prebivajo v egiptovski deželi, kakor sem kaznoval Jeruzalem, z mečem, z lakoto in s kužno boleznijo,
14 So that none of the remnant of Judah, which are gone into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall escape or remain, that they should return into the land of Judah, to the which they have a desire to return to dwell there: for none shall return but such as shall escape.
tako da ne bo nihče izmed Judovega preostanka, ki so odšli v egiptovsko deželo, da začasno prebivajo tam, ušel ali preostal, da bi se vrnil v Judovo deželo, h kateri so imeli željo, da se vrnejo, da prebivajo tam. Kajti nihče se ne bo vrnil, razen tistih, ki bodo pobegnili.‹«
15 Then all the men which knew that their wives had burned incense unto other gods, and all the women that stood by, a great multitude, even all the people that dwelt in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying,
Potem so vsi možje, ki so vedeli, da so njihove žene zažigale kadilo drugim bogovom in vse ženske, ki so stale poleg, velika množica, celo vse ljudstvo, ki prebiva v egiptovski deželi, v Patrósu, odgovorili Jeremiju, rekoč:
16 As for the word that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of Yhwh, we will not hearken unto thee.
» Glede na besedo, ki si nam jo govoril v imenu Gospoda, ti ne bomo prisluhnili,
17 But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth out of our own mouth, to burn incense unto the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, as we have done, we, and our fathers, our kings, and our princes, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then had we plenty of victuals, and were well, and saw no evil.
temveč bomo zagotovo počeli katerokoli stvar, izhajajočo iz naših lastnih ust, da zažigamo kadilo kraljici neba in da ji izlivamo pitne daritve, kakor smo počeli mi in naši očetje, naši kralji in naši princi v Judovih mestih in na ulicah Jeruzalema, kajti tedaj smo imeli obilico živeža in smo bili dobro in nismo videli zla.
18 But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine.
Toda odkar smo prenehali zažigati kadilo kraljici neba in ji izlivati pitne daritve, smo bili v potrebi vseh stvari in smo použiti z mečem in z lakoto.«
19 And when we burned incense to the queen of heaven, and poured out drink offerings unto her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink offerings unto her, without our men?
»In ko smo zažigale kadilo kraljici neba in ji izlivale pitne daritve, mar smo ji naredile kolačke, da jo obožujemo in ji izlivale pitne daritve, brez naših moških?«
20 Then Jeremiah said unto all the people, to the men, and to the women, and to all the people which had given him that answer, saying,
Potem je Jeremija rekel vsemu ljudstvu, moškim in ženskam in vsemu ljudstvu, ki mu je dalo ta odgovor, rekoč:
21 The incense that ye burned in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, ye, and your fathers, your kings, and your princes, and the people of the land, did not Yhwh remember them, and came it not into his mind?
»Kadilo, ki ste ga zažigali po Judovih mestih in po ulicah Jeruzalema, vi in vaši očetje, vaši kralji, vaši princi in ljudstvo dežele, ali se jih ni Gospod spomnil in ali to ni prišlo v njegov um?
22 So that Yhwh could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which ye have committed; therefore is your land a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without an inhabitant, as at this day.
Tako da Gospod ni mogel več trpeti zaradi zla vaših početij in zaradi ogabnosti, ki ste jih zagrešili; zato je vaša dežela opustošenje, osuplost in prekletstvo, brez prebivalca, kakor na ta dan.
23 Because ye have burned incense, and because ye have sinned against Yhwh, and have not obeyed the voice of Yhwh, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil is happened unto you, as at this day.
Ker ste zažigali kadilo in ker ste grešili zoper Gospoda in niste ubogali Gospodovega glasu, niti hodili po njegovi postavi, niti po njegovih zakonih, niti po njegovih pričevanjih, zato se vam je zgodilo to zlo, kakor na ta dan.«
24 Moreover Jeremiah said unto all the people, and to all the women, Hear the word of Yhwh, all Judah that are in the land of Egypt:
Poleg tega je Jeremija rekel vsemu ljudstvu in vsem ženskam: »Poslušajte besedo od Gospoda, ves Juda, ki ste v egiptovski deželi:
25 Thus saith Yhwh of Armies, the God of Israel, saying; Ye and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your hand, saying, We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her: ye will surely accomplish your vows, and surely perform your vows.
›Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog, rekoč: ›Vi in vaše žene ste tako govorili s svojimi usti in s svojo roko izpolnili, rekoč: ›Zagotovo bomo izvajali svoje zaobljube, ki smo se jih zaobljubili, da zažigamo kadilo kraljici neba in da ji izlivamo pitne daritve.‹ Zagotovo boste dokončali svoje zaobljube in zagotovo boste izvedli svoje zaobljube.
26 Therefore hear ye the word of Yhwh, all Judah that dwell in the land of Egypt; Behold, I have sworn by my great name, saith Yhwh, that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, The Lord Yhwh liveth.
Zato poslušajte besedo od Gospoda, ves Juda, ki prebiva v egiptovski deželi: ›Glejte, prisegel sem pri svojem velikem imenu, ‹ govori Gospod, ›da moje ime ne bo več imenovano v ustih kateregakoli moškega iz Juda in po vsej egiptovski deželi, rekoč: ›Gospod Bog živi.‹
27 Behold, I will watch over them for evil, and not for good: and all the men of Judah that are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until there be an end of them.
Glej, bedel bom nad njimi za zlo in ne za dobro; in vsi Judovi možje, ki so v egiptovski deželi, bodo použiti z mečem in z lakoto, dokler jih ne bo konec.
28 Yet a small number that escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah, and all the remnant of Judah, that are gone into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall know whose words shall stand, mine, or theirs.
Vendar se bo malo število, ki pobegne meču, vrnilo iz egiptovske dežele v Judovo deželo in ves preostanek Juda, ki so odšli v egiptovsko deželo, da tam začasno prebiva, bo vedel čigave besede bodo obstale, moje ali njihove.
29 And this shall be a sign unto you, saith Yhwh, that I will punish you in this place, that ye may know that my words shall surely stand against you for evil:
To vam bo znamenje, ‹ govori Gospod, ›da vas bom kaznoval na tem kraju, da boste lahko vedeli, da bodo moje besede zagotovo obstale zoper vas v zlo.‹
30 Thus saith Yhwh; Behold, I will give Pharaoh–hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of them that seek his life; as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, his enemy, and that sought his life.
Tako govori Gospod: ›Glejte, izročil bom faraona Hofrája, egiptovskega kralja, v roko njegovih sovražnikov in v roko tistih, ki strežejo po njegovem življenju, kakor sem Judovega kralja Sedekíja izročil v roko babilonskega kralja Nebukadnezarja, njegovega sovražnika in ki je stregel po njegovem življenju.‹«
