Jeremiah 24
1 Jehovah showed me, and look, two baskets of figs set before Jehovah's temple, after that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and the officials of Judah, with the craftsmen and smiths, from Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon.
Gospod mi je pokazal in glej, dve košari fig sta bili postavljeni pred Gospodovim templjem, potem ko je babilonski kralj Nebukadnezar odvedel ujetništvo Jehoníja, sina Jojakíma, Judovega kralja in Judove prince s tesarji in kovači iz Jeruzalema in jih privedel v Babilon.
2 One basket had very good figs, like the figs that are first-ripe; and the other basket had very bad figs, which could not be eaten, they were so bad.
Ena košara je imela zelo dobre fige, celó kakor fige, ki so najprej zrele, druga košara pa je imela zelo nespodobne fige, ki se niso mogle jesti, tako slabe so bile.
3 Then Jehovah said to me, "What do you see, Jeremiah?" I said, "Figs; the good figs, very good; and the bad, very bad, that can't be eaten, they are so bad."
Potem mi je Gospod rekel: »Kaj vidiš Jeremija?« Rekel sem: »Fige, dobre fige, zelo dobre in slabe ter zelo slabe, ki ne morejo biti pojedene, tako slabe so.«
4 The word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
Ponovno je prišla k meni Gospodova beseda, rekoč:
5 "Thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel: 'Like these good figs, so will I regard the captives of Judah, whom I have sent out of this place into the land of the Chaldeans, for good.
»Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog: ›Podobno kot te dobre fige, tako bom priznal tiste, ki so odvedeni v ujetništvo od Juda, ki sem jih poslal ven iz tega kraja, v deželo Kaldejcev, v njihovo dobro.
6 For I will set my eyes on them for good, and I will bring them again to this land: and I will build them, and not pull them down; and I will plant them, and not pluck them up.
Kajti svoje oči bom naravnal nanje v dobro in jih ponovno privedel v to deželo. Pozidal jih bom in jih ne podiral, jih sadil in ne ruval.
7 I will give them a heart to know me, that I am Jehovah: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God; for they shall return to me with their whole heart.'
Dal jim bom srce, da me spoznajo, da jaz sem Gospod. In oni bodo moje ljudstvo in jaz bom njihov Bog, kajti k meni se bodo vrnili s svojim celotnim srcem.
8 As the bad figs, which can't be eaten, they are so bad, surely thus says Jehovah, 'So will I give up Zedekiah the king of Judah, and his officials, and the remnant of Jerusalem, who remain in this land, and those who dwell in the land of Egypt,
Kakor slabe fige, ki se ne morejo jesti, tako so slabe; ‹ zagotovo tako govori Gospod: ›Tako bom izročil Judovega kralja Sedekíja, njegove prince in Jeruzalemov preostanek, ki preostane v tej deželi in tiste, ki prebivajo v egiptovski deželi.
9 I will make them a horror, an evil thing, to all the kingdoms of the earth, as a reproach and a proverb, a taunt and a curse, in all places where I shall drive them.
Izročil jih bom, da bodo odstranjeni v vsa zemeljska kraljestva, v njihovo škodo, da bodo graja in pregovor, zbadljivka in prekletstvo, na vseh krajih, kamor jih bom pognal.
10 I will send the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, among them, until they be consumed from off the land that I gave to them and to their fathers.'"
Mednje bom poslal meč, lakoto in kužno bolezen, dokler ne bodo použiti iz dežele, ki sem jo dal njim in njihovim očetom.‹«
