Jeremiah 30

1 The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,

Beseda, ki je prišla Jeremiju od Gospoda, rekoč:

2 "Thus speaks the LORD, the God of Israel, saying, 'Write all the words that I have spoken to you in a scroll.

»Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog, rekoč: ›V knjigo si zapiši vse besede, ki sem ti jih govoril.

3 For, look, the days come, says the LORD, that I will turn again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah,' says the LORD; 'and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.'"

Kajti glej, prihajajo dnevi, ‹ govori Gospod, ›da bom ponovno privedel ujetništvo svojega ljudstva Izraela in Juda, ‹ govori Gospod ›in povzročil jim bom, da se vrnejo v deželo, ki sem jo dal njihovim očetom in oni jo bodo vzeli v last.‹«

4 These are the words that the LORD spoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah.

To so besede, ki jih je Gospod govoril glede Izraela in glede Juda.

5 For thus says the LORD: "We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace.

Kajti tako govori Gospod: »Slišali smo glas trepetanja, strahu in ne miru.

6 Ask now, and see whether a man does travail with child: why do I see every man with his hands on his waist, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness?

Vprašajte torej in poglejte, ali je mož v porodnih mukah z otrokom? Zakaj vidim vsakega moža s svojimi rokami na svojih ledjih, kakor žensko v porodnih mukah in so vsi obrazi postali bledi?

7 Alas, for that day is great, so that none is like it. It is even the time of Jacob's trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.

Ojoj! Kajti ta dan je velik, tako da mu ni nobeden podoben. To je celo čas Jakobove stiske, toda rešen bo iz nje.

8 It shall come to pass in that day," says the LORD of hosts, "that I will break his yoke from off your neck, and will burst your bonds; and strangers shall no more make him their bondservant;

Kajti to se bo zgodilo na ta dan, « govori Gospod nad bojevniki, » da bom zlomil njegov jarem s tvojega vratu in raztrgal tvoje vezi in tujcem ne bo več sužnjeval,

9 but they shall serve the LORD their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up to them.

temveč bodo služili Gospodu, svojemu Bogu in Davidu, svojemu kralju, ki jim ga bom vzdignil.

10 Therefore do not be afraid, O Jacob my servant, says the LORD; neither be dismayed, Israel: for, look, I will save you from afar, and your descendants from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be quiet and at ease, and none shall make him afraid.

Zato se ne boj, oh moj služabnik Jakob, ‹ govori Gospod; ›niti ne bodi zaprepaden, oh Izrael, kajti, glej, rešil te bom od daleč in tvoje seme iz dežele njihovega ujetništva. Jakob se bo vrnil in bo v miru in bo tiho in nihče ga ne bo prestrašil.

11 For I am with you, says the LORD, to save you: for I will make a full end of all the nations where I have scattered you, but I will not make a full end of you; but I will correct you in measure, and will in no way leave you unpunished."

Kajti jaz sem s teboj, ‹ govori Gospod, ›da te rešim. Čeprav naredim poln konec vsem narodom, kamor sem te razkropil, vendar iz tebe ne bom naredil polnega konca, temveč te bom grajal po meri in te ne bom pustil povsem nekaznovanega.‹

12 For thus says the LORD, "Your hurt is incurable, and your wound grievous.

Kajti tako govori Gospod: ›Tvoja poškodba je nezaceljiva in tvoja rana je boleča.

13 There is none to plead your cause, that you may be bound up: you have no healing medicines.

Nobenega ni, da zagovarja tvoj primer, da bi bil lahko obvezan. Nobenih zdravilnih zdravil nimaš.

14 All your lovers have forgotten you; they do not seek you: for I have wounded you with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the greatness of your iniquity, because your sins were increased.

Vsi tvoji ljubimci so te pozabili. Ne iščejo te; kajti ranil sem te z rano sovražnika, s kaznovanjem krutega, zaradi množice tvojih krivičnosti, ker so tvoji grehi narasli.

15 Why do you cry for your hurt? Your pain is incurable: for the greatness of your iniquity, because your sins were increased, I have done these things to you.

Zakaj vpiješ zaradi svoje stiske? Tvoja bridkost je neozdravljiva zaradi množice tvoje krivičnosti. Ker so tvoji grehi narasli, sem ti jaz storil te stvari.

16 Therefore all those who devour you shall be devoured; and all your adversaries, everyone of them, shall go into captivity; and those who plunder you shall be plundered, and all who prey on you I will make a prey.

Zatorej bodo vsi, ki te požirajo, požrti, in vsi tvoji nasprotniki, vsak izmed njih, bodo šli v ujetništvo, in tisti, ki te plenijo, bodo plen in vse to ukradeno blago na tebi bom dal za plen.

17 For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds," says the LORD; "because they have called you an outcast, saying, 'It is Zion, whom no man seeks after.'"

Kajti jaz ti bom obnovil zdravje in jaz te bom ozdravil tvojih ran, ‹ govori Gospod, ›ker so te imenovali Izobčenec, rekoč: ›To je Sion, ki ga noben človek ne išče.‹

18 Thus says the LORD: "Look, I will turn again the captivity of Jacob's tents, and have compassion on his dwelling places; and the city shall be built on its own hill, and the palace shall be inhabited in its own way.

Tako govori Gospod: ›Glej, ponovno bom privedel ujetništvo Jakobovih šotorov in se usmilil njegovih bivališč, in mesto bo zgrajeno na svojem lastnem kupu in palača bo ostala po svoji lastni navadi.

19 Out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of those who make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small.

Iz njih bo izšlo zahvaljevanje in glas tistih, ki se veselijo. Pomnožil jih bom in ne bo jih malo; prav tako jih bom proslavil in ne bodo majhni.

20 Their children also shall be as before, and their congregation shall be established before me; and I will punish all who oppress them.

Tudi njihovi otroci bodo kakor poprej in njihova skupnost bo utrjena pred menoj, kaznoval pa bom vse, ki jih zatirajo.

21 Their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from their midst; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach to me: for who is he who has had boldness to approach to me? says the LORD.

Njihovi plemiči bodo izmed njih in njihov voditelj bo izšel iz njihove srede. Povzročil mu bom, da se približa in pristopil bo k meni, kajti kdo je ta, ki daje svojemu srcu jamstvo, da se mi približa?‹ govori Gospod.

22 You shall be my people, and I will be your God.

›Vi boste moje ljudstvo in jaz bom vaš Bog.‹«

23 Look, the storm of the LORD, his wrath, has gone forth, a sweeping storm: it shall burst on the head of the wicked.

Glej, vrtinčast veter od Gospoda gre naprej z razjarjenostjo, nenehen vrtinčast veter; boleče bo padel na glavo zlobnih.

24 The fierce anger of the LORD will not return, until he has executed, and until he has performed the intentions of his heart. In the latter days you will understand it.

Gospodova kruta jeza se ne bo vrnila, dokler ne bo tega storil in dokler ne izpolni namene svojega srca. V zadnjih dneh boste to preudarili.
