Jeremiah 42
1 And they come near—all the heads of the forces, and Johanan son of Kareah, and Jezaniah son of Hoshaiah, and all the people from the least even to the greatest—
Potem so se vsi poveljniki sil, Karéahov sin Johanán, Hošajájev sin Jaazanjá in vse ljudstvo, od najmanjših celo do največjih, približali
2 and they say to Jeremiah the prophet, “Please let our supplication fall before you, and pray for us to your God YHWH for all this remnant; for we have been left a few out of many, as your eyes see us;
in rekli preroku Jeremiju: »Rotimo te, naj bo naša ponižna prošnja sprejeta pred teboj in prosi za nas h Gospodu, svojemu Bogu, celó za ves ta preostanek; (kajti nas je ostalo samo malo od mnogih, kakor nas tvoje oči gledajo),
3 and your God YHWH declares to us the way in which we walk, and the thing that we do.”
da nam Gospod, tvoj Bog, lahko pokaže pot, po kateri lahko hodimo in stvar, ki jo lahko delamo.«
4 And Jeremiah the prophet says to them, “I have heard: behold, I am praying to your God YHWH according to your words, and it has come to pass, the whole word that YHWH answers you, I declare to you—I do not withhold a word from you.”
Potem jim je prerok Jeremija rekel: »Slišal sem vas. Glejte, molil bom za vas h Gospodu, svojemu Bogu, glede vaših besed, in zgodilo se bo, da katerokoli stvar vam bo Gospod odgovoril, vam bom to oznanil. Ničesar ne bom zadržal pred vami.«
5 And they have said to Jeremiah, “YHWH is against us for a true and faithful witness, if—according to all the word with which your God YHWH sends you to us—we do not do so.
Potem so rekli Jeremiju: » Gospod bodi resnična in zvesta priča med nami, če ne storimo celo glede vseh stvari, zaradi katerih te je Gospod, tvoj Bog, poslal k nam.
6 Whether [it is] good or evil, to the voice of our God YHWH, to whom we are sending you, we listen; because it is good for us when we listen to the voice of our God YHWH.”
Bodisi je to dobro ali če je to zlo, ubogali bomo glas Gospoda, svojega Boga, h kateremu smo te poslali, da bo lahko dobro z nami, ko ubogamo glas Gospoda, svojega Boga.«
7 And it comes to pass, at the end of ten days, that there is a word of YHWH to Jeremiah,
Po desetih dneh se je pripetilo, da je beseda od Gospoda prišla k Jeremiju.
8 and he calls to Johanan son of Kareah, and to all the heads of the forces that [are] with him, and to all the people, from the least even to the greatest,
Potem je poklical Karéahovega sina Johanána in vse poveljnike sil, ki so bili z njim in vse ljudstvo, od najmanjšega, celo do največjega
9 and he says to them, “Thus said YHWH, God of Israel, to whom you sent me, to cause your supplication to fall before Him:
in jim rekel: »Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog, h kateremu ste me poslali, da pred njim predložim vašo ponižno prošnjo:
10 If you certainly dwell in this land, then I have built you up, and I do not throw down; and I have planted you, and I do not pluck up; for I have relented concerning the calamity that I have done to you.
›Če boste mirno ostali v tej deželi, potem vas bom gradil in vas ne bom podiral, sadil vas bom in vas ne bom ruval, kajti pokesal sem se zla, ki sem vam ga storil.
11 Do not be afraid of the king of Babylon, whom you are afraid of; do not be afraid of him—a declaration of YHWH—for I [am] with you, to save you, and to deliver you from his hand.
Ne bojte se babilonskega kralja, ki se ga bojite. Ne bojte se ga, ‹ govori Gospod. ›kajti jaz sem z vami, da vas rešim in da vas osvobodim iz njegove roke.
12 And I give mercies to you, and he has pitied you, and caused you to return to your own ground.
Pokazal vam bom usmiljenja, da bo lahko imel usmiljenje nad vami in vam povzroči, da se vrnete k svoji lastni deželi.
13 And if you are saying, We do not dwell in this land—not to listen to the voice of your God YHWH,
Toda če rečete: ›Ne bomo prebivali v tej deželi niti ne bomo ubogali glasu Gospoda, tvojega Boga,
14 saying, No; but we enter the land of Egypt, that we see no war, and do not hear the sound of a horn, and are not hungry for bread; and we dwell there—
rekoč: ›Ne, temveč bomo šli v egiptovsko deželo, kjer ne bomo videli nobene vojne niti slišali zvoka šofarja niti ne imeli lakote kruha in bomo tam prebivali.‹‹
15 And now, therefore, hear a word of YHWH, O remnant of Judah! Thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: If you really set your faces to enter Egypt, and have gone to sojourn there,
Sedaj torej poslušajte Gospodovo besedo, vi, Judov ostanek: ›Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Če v celoti naravnate svoje obraze, da vstopite v Egipt in greste, da začasno prebivate tam,
16 then it has come to pass, the sword that you are afraid of, overtakes you there, in the land of Egypt; and the hunger, because of which you are sorrowful, cleaves after you there in Egypt, and there you die.
potem se bo zgodilo, da vas bo meč, ki ste se ga bali, tam, v egiptovski deželi, dohitel in lakota, ki ste se je bali, bo tesno sledila za vami tja v Egipt, in tam boste umrli.
17 Thus are all the men who have set their faces to enter Egypt to sojourn there; they die—by sword, by hunger, and by pestilence, and there is not a remnant and an escaped one to them, because of the calamity that I am bringing in on them;
Tako bo z vsemi ljudmi, ki bodo svoje obraze naravnali, da gredo v Egipt, da začasno prebivajo tam. Umrli bodo pod mečem, od lakote, od kužne bolezni in nihče izmed njih ne bo preostal ali pobegnil pred zlom, ki ga bom privedel nadnje.‹
18 for thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: As My anger and My fury have been poured out on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so My fury is poured out on you in your entering Egypt, and you have been for an execration, and for an astonishment, and for a reviling, and for a reproach, and you do not see this place anymore.
Kajti tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Kakor je bila moja jeza in moja razjarjenost izlita nad prebivalce Jeruzalema, tako bo moja razjarjenost izlita nad vas, ko boste vstopili v Egipt, in vi boste preziranje, osuplost, prekletstvo in graja; in ne boste več videli tega kraja.‹«
19 YHWH has spoken against you, O remnant of Judah, do not enter Egypt: certainly know that I have testified against you today;
Gospod je glede vas rekel: »Oh vi, Judov preostanek: ›Ne pojdite v Egipt. Zagotovo vedite, da sem vas ta dan opomnil.
20 for you have showed yourselves perverse in your souls, for you sent me to your God YHWH, saying, Pray for us to our God YHWH, and according to all that our God YHWH says, so declare to us, and we have done [it];
Kajti pretvarjali ste se v svojih srcih, ko ste me poslali h Gospodu, svojemu Bogu, rekoč: ›Moli za nas h Gospodu, našemu Bogu in glede na vse to, kar ti bo Gospod, naš Bog, rekel, tako nam razglasi in bomo to storili.‹
21 and I declare to you today, and you have not listened to the voice of your God YHWH, and to anything with which He has sent me to you.
Sedaj sem vam ta dan to razglasil, toda vi niste ubogali glasu Gospoda, svojega Boga niti nobene stvari, za katero me je poslal k vam.
22 And now, certainly know that by sword, by famine, and by pestilence you die, in the place that you have desired to go to sojourn there.”
Zdaj torej zagotovo vedite, da boste umrli pod mečem, od lakote in od kužne bolezni na kraju, kamor želite iti in začasno prebivati.«
