Jeremiah 44
1 The word that came to Jeremiah for all the Jews who dwell in the land of Egypt, who dwell at Migdol, and at Thachpanches, 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 hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, You yourselves have seen all the evil that I have brought over Jerusalem, and over all the cities of Judah; and, behold, they are ruins this day, and no man is dwelling in them;
»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 had committed to provoke me to anger, by going to burn incense, to serve other gods, whom they did not know, either they, you, or 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 And I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, making them rise early and sending them, saying, Oh, do not commit this abominable thing which 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, and inclined not their ear to turn away from their wickedness, so as not to burn 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 Whereupon my fury and my anger were poured forth, and were enkindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem: and they are become ruins, a desert, 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 And now thus hath said the Lord, the God of hosts, the God of Israel, Wherefore do ye commit so great an evil against your souls, so as to cut off unto you man and woman, child and suckling, out of the midst of Judah, so as not to leave you any remainder,
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 By provoking me unto wrath with the works of your hands, in burning incense unto other gods in the land of Egypt, whither ye are come to sojourn there, in order to cut yourselves off, and in order that ye might become a curse and a disgrace 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 had 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 up to this day, and they are not afraid, and they walk not in my law, nor in my statutes, that I have 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 hath said the Lord of hosts, 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 come to their end, and in the land of Egypt shall they fall: by the sword [and] by the famine shall they come to their end; from the least even unto the greatest, by the sword and by the famine shall they die; and they shall become an oath, an astonishment, and a curse, and a disgrace.
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 And I will inflict punishment on those that dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have inflicted punishment on Jerusalem, through the sword, through the famine, and through 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 there shall be no one that escapeth or remaineth of the remnant of Judah, who are gone into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, that they should return into the land of Judah, to which they direct [the desire of] their soul to return thither to dwell there; for they shall not 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 did all the men who knew that their wives were burning incense unto other gods, and all the women that stood by, a great multitude, and all the people that dwelt in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answer 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 Respecting the word that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of the Lord, we will not hearken unto thee.
» Glede na besedo, ki si nam jo govoril v imenu Gospoda, ti ne bomo prisluhnili,
17 For to a surety we will do all the word that is gone 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: when we had plenty of food, and fared 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 the time we have left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink-offerings unto her, have we had a lack of every thing; and we have come to our end through the sword and through 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 burnt incense to the queen of heaven, and poured out drink-offerings unto her, —was this without [the consent of] our husbands, that we did make cakes for her to make her image, and pour out drink-offerings unto her?
»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 said Jeremiah unto all the people, to the men, and to the women, and to all the people who had answered him [with that] word, saying,
Potem je Jeremija rekel vsemu ljudstvu, moškim in ženskam in vsemu ljudstvu, ki mu je dalo ta odgovor, rekoč:
21 Behold, it was the incense that ye burnt 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, which the Lord remembered, and which came 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 the Lord could no longer endure it, because of the evil of your doings, because of the abominations which ye had committed: therefore is your land become a ruin, and an [object of] 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 that ye had burnt incense, and because ye had sinned against the Lord, and had not hearkened to the voice of the Lord, and had not walked in his law, in his statutes, and in his testimonies: therefore did this evil befall you, as it is 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 And Jeremiah said [farther] to all the people, and to all the women, Hear the word of the Lord, 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 hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, Ye and your wives have both spoken with your mouth, and fulfilled with your hands, 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 fully accomplish your vows, and fully 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 the Lord, all Judah that dwell in the land of Egypt, Behold, I have sworn by my great name, saith the Lord, that my name shall no more be called by the mouth of any man of Judah, saying, “As the Lord Eternal liveth,” in all the land of Egypt.
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 come to their end through the sword and through the famine, until they be destroyed.
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 some that escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah, but few in number; and all the remnant of Judah, that are come into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall know whose words shall stand firm, 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 unto you the sign, saith the Lord, that I will inflict punishment on you in this place, in order that ye may know that my words shall surely stand firm 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 hath said the Lord, Behold, I will give Pharaoh-chophra' the king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of those that seek his life, as I gave Zedekiah the king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, his enemy, and who had 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.‹«
