Jeremiah 15
1 Then the LORD said to me, "Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind would not be toward this people: cast them out of my sight, and let them go forth.
Potem mi je Gospod rekel: »Čeprav bi pred menoj stala Mojzes in Samuel, vendar moj um ne bi mogel biti k temu ljudstvu. Vrzi jih iz mojega pogleda in naj gredo naprej.
2 It shall happen, when they tell you, 'Where shall we go forth?' Then you shall tell them, 'Thus says the LORD: "Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as are for captivity, to captivity.
Zgodilo se bo, če ti rečejo: ›Kam naj gremo naprej?‹ Potem jim boš rekel: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Tisti, ki ste za smrt, k smrti; tisti, ki ste za meč, k meču; tisti, ki ste za lakoto, k lakoti in tisti, ki ste za ujetništvo, k ujetništvu.‹
3 I will appoint over them four kinds, says the LORD: the sword to kill, and the dogs to tear, and the birds of the sky, and the animals of the earth, to devour and to destroy.
Nad njimi bom določil štiri vrste, ‹ govori Gospod: ›meč, da ubija in pse, da trgajo ter perjad neba in zemeljske živali, da požirajo in uničujejo.
4 I will cause them to be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh, the son of Hezekiah, king of Judah, for that which he did in Jerusalem.
Povzročil jim bom, da bodo odstranjeni v vsa kraljestva zemlje, zaradi Manáseja, sina Ezekíja, Judovega kralja, za to, kar je storil v Jeruzalemu.
5 For who will have pity on you, Jerusalem? Or who will bemoan you? Or who will turn aside to ask of your welfare?
Kajti kdo bo imel usmiljenje nad teboj, oh [prestolnica] Jeruzalem? Kdo te bo obžaloval? Kdo bo šel vstran, da te vpraša, kako si?
6 'You have rejected me,' says the LORD, 'you have gone backward:' therefore have I stretched out my hand against you, and destroyed you; I am weary with repenting.
Zapustila si me, ‹ govori Gospod, ›umaknila si se nazaj. Zato bom zoper tebe iztegnil svojo roko in te uničil; izmučen sem od kesanja.
7 I have winnowed them with a fan in the gates of the land; I have bereaved them of children, I have destroyed my people; they did not return from their ways.
Vejál jih bom z vejálnikom v velikih vratih dežele; oropal jih bom otrok, uničil bom svoje ljudstvo, ker se niso vrnili iz svojih poti.
8 Their widows are increased to me above the sand of the seas; I have brought on them against the mother of the young men a destroyer at noonday; I have made anguish and terror to fall on them suddenly.
Njihove vdove so mi [številčno] narasle nad peskom morja. Zoper mater mladeničev sem nadnje opoldan privedel plenitelja. Storil sem mu, da je nenadoma padel nanjo in strahote so padle nad mesto.
9 She who has borne seven languishes; she has given up the spirit; her sun is gone down while it was yet day; she has been disappointed and confounded: and their residue will I deliver to the sword before their enemies," says the LORD.
Tista, ki jih je rodila sedem, peša. Izročila je duha. Njeno sonce je zašlo, medtem ko je bil še dan. Bila je osramočena in zmedena. Preostanek izmed njih bom izročil meču pred njihovimi sovražniki, ‹« govori Gospod.
10 "Woe is me, my mother, that you have borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth. I have not lent, neither have men lent to me; yet everyone of them curses me."
»Gorje meni, moja mati, da si me rodila, človeka prepira in človeka spora celotni zemlji! Niti nisem posojal za obresti niti mi ljudje niso posojali za obresti, vendar me vsakdo izmed njih preklinja.«
11 The LORD said, "Most certainly I will strengthen you for good; most certainly I will cause the enemy to make petition to you in the time of evil and in the time of distress.
Gospod je rekel: »Resnično, dobro bo s tvojim preostankom. Resnično, povzročil bom, da bo sovražnik dobro ravnal s teboj v času zla in v času stiske.
12 Can one break iron, even iron from the north, and bronze?
Se bo železo zlomilo, severno železo in jeklo?
13 Your substance and your treasures will I give for a spoil without price, and that for all your sins, even in all your borders.
Tvoje imetje in tvoje zaklade bom izročil v plen brez cene in to za vse tvoje grehe, celo v vseh tvojih mejah.
14 I will make you serve your enemies in a land which you do not know; for a fire is kindled in my anger, which shall burn on you."
Storil ti bom, da v deželo, ki je ne poznaš, preideš s svojimi sovražniki. Kajti ogenj je vnet v moji jezi, ki bo gorel na vas.«
15 "LORD, you know; remember me, and visit me, and avenge me of my persecutors; do not take me away in your longsuffering: know that for your sake I have suffered reproach.
Oh Gospod, ti veš. Spomni se me in me obišči in me maščuj nad mojimi preganjalci. V svoji potrpežljivosti me ne odvzemi proč. Vedi, da sem zaradi tebe trpel grajo.
16 Your words were found, and I ate them; and your words were to me a joy and the rejoicing of my heart: for I am called by your name, LORD, God of hosts.
Tvoje besede so bile najdene in sem jih jedel, in tvoja beseda mi je bila radost in veselje mojega srca, kajti imenovan sem po tvojem imenu, oh Gospod, Bog nad bojevniki.
17 I did not sit in the assembly of those who make merry, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of your hand; for you have filled me with indignation.
Nisem sedel v zboru zasmehovalcev niti se nisem razveseljeval; sam sem sedel zaradi tvoje roke, kajti napolnil si me z ogorčenjem.
18 Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, which refuses to be healed? Will you indeed be to me as a deceitful brook, as waters that fail?"
Zakaj je moja bolečina neprestana in moja rana, ki odklanja biti ozdravljena, nezaceljiva? Ali mi hočete biti vsi skupaj kakor lažnivec in kakor vode, ki odpovedo?
19 Therefore thus says the LORD, "If you return, then will I bring you again, that you may stand before me; and if you take forth the precious from the vile, you shall be as my mouth: they shall return to you, but you shall not return to them.
Zato tako govori Gospod: »Če se spreobrneš, potem te bom ponovno privedel in boš stal pred menoj. Če odvzameš dragoceno iz hudobnega, boš kakor moja usta. Oni naj se vrnejo k tebi, toda ti se ne vrni k njim.
20 I will make you to this people a fortified bronze wall; and they shall fight against you, but they shall not prevail against you; for I am with you to save you and to deliver you," says the LORD.
Temu ljudstvu te bom naredil za ograjen bronast zid. Borili se bodo zoper tebe, toda ne bodo prevladali zoper tebe, kajti jaz sem s teboj, da te rešim in da te osvobodim, ‹ govori Gospod.
21 "I will deliver you out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem you out of the hand of the terrible."
›Rešil te bom iz roke zlobnih in odkupil te bom iz roke strašnih.‹«
