Jeremiah 28

1 And it comes to pass, in that year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, Hananiah son of Azur the prophet, who [is] of Gibeon, has spoken to me in the house of YHWH, before the eyes of the priests, and all the people, saying,

Kong Zedekias af Judas fjerde regeringsår i den femte måned sagde Profeten Hananja, Azzurs Søn, fra Gibeon til mig i HERRENs Hus i Præsternes og alt Folkets Nærværelse:

2 “Thus spoke YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel, saying, I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon;

"Så siger Hærskarers HERRE, Israels Gud: Jeg har sønderbrudt Babels Konges Åg.

3 within two years of days I am bringing back to this place all the vessels of the house of YHWH that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has taken from this place, and carries to Babylon,

Om to År fører jeg tilbage hertil alle HERRENs Huss Kar, som Kong Nebukadnezar af Babel tog herfra og førte til Babel;

4 and Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and all the expulsion of Judah, who are entering Babylon, I am bringing back to this place—a declaration of YHWH; for I break the yoke of the king of Babylon.”

og Jojakims Søn, Kong Jekonja af Juda, og alle de landflygtige fra Juda, som kom til Babel, fører jeg tilbage hertil, lyder det fra HERREN; thi jeg sønderbryder Babels Konges Åg."

5 And Jeremiah the prophet says to Hananiah the prophet, before the eyes of the priests, and before the eyes of all the people who are standing in the house of YHWH,

Profeten Jeremias svarede Profeten Hananja i Nærværelse af Præsterne og alt Folket, som stod i HERRENs Hus,

6 indeed, Jeremiah the prophet says, “Amen! So may YHWH do; YHWH establish your words that you have prophesied, to bring back the vessels of the house of YHWH and all the expulsion from Babylon, to this place.

således: "Amen! Måtte HERREN gøre således og stadfæste, hvad du har profeteret, og føre HERRENs Huss Kar og alle de landflygtige fra Babel tilbage hertil!

7 Only, please hear this word that I am speaking in your ears, and in the ears of all the people.

Men hør dog dette Ord, som jeg vil tale til dig og alt Folket:

8 The prophets who have been before me, and before you, from of old, even they prophesy concerning many lands, and concerning great kingdoms, of battle, and of calamity, and of pestilence.

De Profeter, som levede før mig og dig fra Fortids Dage, profeterede mod mange Lande og mægtige Riger om krig, Hunger og Pest;

9 The prophet who prophesies of peace, by the word of the prophet coming to pass, the prophet is known [as] one whom YHWH has truly sent.”

men når en Profet profeterer om Fred, kendes den Profet, HERREN virkelig har sendt, på at hans Ord går i Opfyldelse."

10 And Hananiah the prophet takes the yoke from off the neck of Jeremiah the prophet, and breaks it,

Så rev Profeten Hananja Ågstængerne af Profeten Jeremiass Hals og sønderbrød dem;

11 and Hananiah speaks before the eyes of all the people, saying, “Thus said YHWH: Thus I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, within two years of days, from off the neck of all the nations”; and Jeremiah the prophet goes on his way.

og Hananja sagde i alt Folkets Nærværelse: "Så siger HERREN: Således sønderbryder jeg om to År Kong Nebukadnezar af Babels Åg og tager det fra alle Folkenes Hals." Men Profeten Jeremias gik sin Vej.

12 And there is a word of YHWH to Jeremiah after the breaking, by Hananiah the prophet, of the yoke from off the neck of Jeremiah the prophet, saying,

Men efter at Profeten Hananja havde sønderbrudt Ågstængerne og revet dem af Profeten Jeremiass Hals, kom HERRENs Ord til Jeremias således:

13 “Go, and you have spoken to Hananiah, saying, Thus said YHWH: You have broken yokes of wood, and I have made yokes of iron instead of them.

"Gå hen og sig til Hananja: Så siger HERREN: Du har sønderbrudt Ågstænger af Træ, men jeg vil lave Ågstænger af Jern i Stedet.

14 For thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: I have put a yoke of iron on the neck of all these nations to serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and they have served him, and I have also given the beast of the field to him.”

Thi så siger Hærskarers HERRE, Israels Gud: Et Jernåg lægger jeg på alle disse Folks Hals, at de må trælle for Kong Nebukadnezar af Babel; de skal trælle for ham, selv Markens Vildt har jeg givet ham."

15 And Jeremiah the prophet says to Hananiah the prophet, “Now hear, O Hananiah; YHWH has not sent you, and you have caused this people to trust on falsehood.

Så sagde Profeten Jeremias til Profeten Hananja: "Hør, Hananja! HERREN har ikke sendt dig, og du har fået dette Folk til at slå Lid til Løgn.

16 Therefore, thus said YHWH: Behold, I am casting you from off the face of the ground; you die this year, for you have spoken apostasy concerning YHWH.”

Derfor, så siger HERREN: Se, jeg slænger dig bort fra Jordens Flade; du skal dø i År, thi du har prædiket Frafald fra HERREN."

17 And Hananiah the prophet dies in that year, in the seventh month.

Og Profeten Hananja døde samme År i den syvende Måned.
