< Jeremiah 27 >
1 In the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, came this word to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
Uti Jojakims rikes begynnelse, Josia sons, Juda Konungs, skedde detta ordet af Herranom till Jeremia, och sade:
2 "Thus says the LORD to me: Make bonds and bars, and put them on your neck;
Detta säger Herren till mig: Gör dig ett ok, och häng det på din hals;
3 and send them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the people of Ammon, and to the king of Tyre, and to the king of Sidon, by the hand of the messengers who come to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah;
Och sänd det till Konungen i Edom, till Konungen i Moab, till Konungen öfver Ammons barn, till Konungen i Tyro, och till Konungen i Zidon, med de sändningabåd, som till Zedekia, Juda Konung, till Jerusalem komne äro;
4 and give them a command to their masters, saying, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, You shall tell your masters:
Och befall dem, att de säga sina herrar: Detta säger Herren Zebaoth, Israels Gud: Så skolen I säga edra herrar:
5 "I have made the earth, the men and the animals that are on the surface of the earth, by my great power and by my outstretched arm; and I give it to whom it seems right to me.
Jag hafvet gjort jordena, och menniskona, och djuren, som på jordene äro, genom mina stora kraft och uträcktom arm, och gifver henne hvem jag vill.
6 Now have I given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant; and the animals of the field also have I given him to serve him.
Men nu hafver jag gifvit all denna landen uti mins tjenares hand, NebucadNezars, Konungens i Babel, och hafver desslikes gifvit honom de vilddjur på markene, att de honom tjena skola.
7 All the nations shall serve him, and his son, and his son's son, until the time of his own land come: and then many nations and great kings shall make him their bondservant.
Och all folk skola tjena honom, hans sone, och hans sonasone, tilldess hans lands tid ock kommer; då mång folk och stora Konungar skola låta tjena sig af honom.
8 It shall happen, that the nation and the kingdom which will not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and that will not put their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, that nation will I punish, says the LORD, with the sword, and with the famine, and with the pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand.
Men hvilket folk och rike icke vill tjena Konungenom af Babel, NebucadNezar, och hvilken som icke gifver sin hals under Konungens ok af Babel, det folket skall jag hemsöka med svärd, hunger och pestilentie, säger Herren, tilldess jag förgör dem genom hans hand.
9 But as for you, do not listen to your prophets, nor to your diviners, nor to your dreams, nor to your soothsayers, nor to your sorcerers, who speak to you, saying, 'You shall not serve the king of Babylon':
Derföre hörer intet edra Propheter, spåmän, drömtydare, dagsväljare och trollkarlar, som säga eder: I varden intet tjenande Konungenom af Babel.
10 for they prophesy a lie to you, to remove you far from your land, and that I should drive you out, and you should perish.
Förty de spå eder lögn, på det de skola draga eder långt bort utur edart land, och jag då utdrifver eder, och I förgåns.
11 But the nation that shall bring their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him, that nation will I let remain in their own land, says the LORD; and they shall till it, and dwell in it."'"
Ty hvilket folk, som böjer sin hals under Konungens ok i Babel, och tjenar honom, dem skall jag låta blifva uti sitt land, att de måga der bygga och bo, säger Herren.
12 I spoke to Zedekiah king of Judah according to all these words, saying, "Bring your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people, and live.
Och jag talade allt detta, till Zedekia, Juda Konung, och sade: Böjer edar hals under Konungens ok i Babel, och tjener honom och hans folke, så skolen I blifva lefvande.
13 Why will you die, you and your people, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, as the LORD has spoken concerning the nation that will not serve the king of Babylon?
Hvi viljen I dö, du och ditt folk, genom svärd, hunger och pestilentie; såsom Herren sagt hafver öfver det folk, som Konungenom i Babel icke tjena, vill?
14 Do not listen to the words of the prophets who speak to you, saying, 'You shall not serve the king of Babylon'; for they prophesy a lie to you.
Derföre hörer de Propheters ord intet, som säga eder: I varden intet tjenande Konungenom af Babel; ty de prophetera eder lögn.
15 'For I have not sent them,' says the LORD, 'but they prophesy falsely in my name; that I may drive you out, and that you may perish, you, and the prophets who prophesy to you.'"
Och jag hafver intet sändt dem, säger Herren, utan de prophetera lögn i mitt Namn på det jag skall utdrifva eder, och I förgås samt med Propheterna, som eder prophetera.
16 Also I spoke to the priests and to all this people, saying, "Thus says the LORD: 'Do not listen to the words of your prophets who prophesy to you, saying, Look, the vessels of the LORD's house shall now shortly be brought again from Babylon; for they prophesy a lie to you.
Och till Presterna, och till allt detta folket talade jag, och sade: Detta säger Herren: Hörer edra Propheters ord intet, som eder prophetera, och säga: Si, de kärile af Herrans hus komma nu snart ifrå Babel hem igen; förty de prophetera eder lögn.
17 Do not listen to them; serve the king of Babylon, and live: why should this city become a desolation?'
Hörer dem intet; utan tjener Konungenom af Babel, så blifven I lefvande. Hvi skulle dock denna staden varda till ett öde?
18 But if they are prophets and if the word of the LORD is with them, let them now make intercession with the LORD of hosts, that the vessels which are left in the house of the LORD, and in the house of the king of Judah and at Jerusalem may not go to Babylon.
Äro de Propheter, och hafva Herrans ord, så låt dem det Herranom Zebaoth afbedja, att de qvarblefne kärilen i Herrans hus och Juda Konungs hus, och i Jerusalem, icke också till Babel förde varda.
19 For thus says the LORD of hosts concerning the pillars, and concerning the sea, and concerning the bases, and concerning the rest of the vessels that are left in this city,
Ty så säger Herren Zebaoth om stodarna, och om hafvet, och om stolarna, och om de tyg, som ännu qvarblefna äro i denna staden,
20 which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon did not take, when he carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, from Jerusalem to Babylon, and all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem;
De NebucadNezar, Konungen i Babel, icke borttog, då han bortförde Jechonia, Jojakims son, Juda Konung, ifrå Jerusalem till Babel, samt med alla Förstarna i Juda och Jerusalem;
21 yes, thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, concerning the vessels that are left in the house of the LORD, and in the house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem:
Ty så säger Herren Zebaoth, Israels Gud, om de tyg som ännu qvarblefne äro i Herrans hus, och i Juda Konungs hus, och i Jerusalem:
22 'They shall be carried to Babylon, and there shall they be, until the day that I visit them,' says the LORD; 'then will I bring them up, and restore them to this place.'"
De skola till Babel förde varda, och der blifva intill den dagen, jag söker dem, säger Herren; och jag låter dem åter här uppkomma till detta rummet igen.
