Jeremiah 43
1 And it comes to pass, when Jeremiah finishes speaking to all the people all the words of their God YHWH, with which their God YHWH has sent him to them—all these words—
Men da Jeremias var til ende med at forkynde alle de Ord, med hvilke HERREN deres Gud havde sendt ham til dem, alle de nævnte Ord,
2 that Azariah son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan son of Kareah, and all the proud men, speak to Jeremiah, saying, “You are speaking falsehood; our God YHWH has not sent you to say, Do not enter Egypt to sojourn there;
sagde Azarja, Ma'asejas Søn, og Johanan, Kareas Søn, og alle de andre overmodige Mænd til Jeremias: »Du lyver! HERREN vor Gud har ikke sendt dig for at sige, at vi ikke skal drage til Ægypten for at bo der som fremmede;
3 for Baruch son of Neriah is moving you against us, in order to give us up into the hand of the Chaldeans, to put us to death, and to remove us to Babylon.”
nej, Baruk, Nerijas Søn, har ophidset dig imod os, for at vi skal gives i Kaldæernes Haand, saa de dræber os eller fører os bort til Babel.«
4 And Johanan son of Kareah, and all the heads of the forces, and all the people, have not listened to the voice of YHWH, to dwell in the land of Judah;
Og Johanan, Kareas Søn, alle Hærførerne og alt Folket adlød ikke HERRENS Røst om at blive i Judas Land;
5 and Johanan son of Kareah, and all the heads of the forces, take all the remnant of Judah who have turned from all the nations to where they were driven to sojourn in the land of Judah,
men Johanan, Kareas Søn, og alle Hærførerne tog hele Judas Rest, som var vendt tilbage for at bo i Judas Land,
6 the men, and the women, and the infant, and the daughters of the king, and every person that Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, had left with Gedaliah son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch son of Neriah,
Mænd, Kvinder og Børn, Kongedøtrene og enhver, som Livvagtsøversten Nebuzar'adan havde ladet blive hos Gedalja, Sjafans Søn Ahikams Søn, ogsaa Profeten Jeremias og Baruk, Nerijas Søn,
7 and they enter the land of Egypt, for they have not listened to the voice of YHWH, and they come as far as Tahpanhes.
og drog til Ægypten; thi de adlød ikke HERRENS Røst. Og de kom til Takpankes.
8 And there is a word of YHWH to Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,
Men HERRENS Ord kom til Jeremias i Takpankes saaledes:
9 “Take great stones in your hand, and you have hidden them in the clay in the brick-kiln, that [is] at the opening of the house of Pharaoh in Tahpanhes, before the eyes of the men of Judah,
Tag dig nogle store Sten og grav dem ned i Teglstensgulvets Underlag ved Indgangen til Faraos Hus i Takpankes i de judæiske Mænds Paasyn
10 and you have said to them, Thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: Behold, I am sending, and I have taken Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, My servant, and I have set his throne above these stones that I have hid, and he has stretched out his pavilion over them,
og sig til dem: Saa siger Hærskarers HERRE, Israels Gud: Jeg lader min Tjener Kong Nebukadrezar af Babel hente, og han skal rejse sin Trone oven over de Sten, du gravede ned, og brede sit Trontæppe derover.
11 and he has come, and struck the land of Egypt—those who [are] for death to death, and those who [are] for captivity to captivity, and those who [are] for the sword to the sword.
Han skal komme og slaa Ægypten; dem, der hører Døden til, skal han overgive til Død, dem, der hører Fangenskabet til, til Fangenskab og dem, der hører Sværdet til, til Sværd.
12 And I have kindled a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt, and it has burned them, and he has taken them captive, and covered himself with the land of Egypt, as the shepherd covers himself with his garment, and he has gone forth there in peace;
Han skal sætte Ild paa Ægyptens Gudehuse og afbrænde dem og bortføre Guderne som Fanger, og han skal svøbe Ægypten om sig som en Hyrde sin Kappe; derpaa skal han drage bort derfra i Fred.
13 and he has broken the standing pillars of the house of the sun, that [is] in the land of Egypt, and he burns the houses of the gods of Egypt with fire.”
Han skal nedbryde Stenstøtterne i Bet-Sjemesj og afbrænde Ægyptens Gudehuse.
