Jeremiah 40

1 The word which it came to Jeremiah from with Yahweh after - set free him Nebuzaradan [the] chief of [the] bodyguards from Ramah when took he him and he [was] bound with chains in among all [the] exile[s] of Jerusalem and Judah who were being taken into exile Babylon towards.

Detta är det ord, som af Herranom skedde till Jeremia, då NebuzarAdan, höfvitsmannen, gaf honom lös i Rama; ty han var ock bunden med kedjor ibland alla dem som i Jerusalem och Juda fångne voro, att man dem till Babel bortföra skulle.

2 And he took [the] chief of [the] bodyguards Jeremiah and he said to him Yahweh God your he spoke the harm this against the place this.

Då nu höfvitsmannen hade låtit hemta Jeremia till sig, sade han till honom: Herren din Gud hafver talat denna olyckona öfver detta rummet;

3 And he has brought [it] and he has done Yahweh just as he said for you sinned to Yahweh and not you listened to voice his and it has happened to you (the thing *Q(K)*) this.

Och Herren hafver också låtit kommat, och gjort som han det sagt hafver; ty I hafven syndat emot Herran, och icke lydt hans röst, derföre är eder sådant vederfaret.

4 And now here! I have set free you this day from the chains which [are] on hand your if it is good in view your to come with me Babylon come so I may set eye my on you and if [is] displeasing in view your to come with me Babylon refrain see all the land [is] before you to [the place] good and to the [place] right in view your to go there towards go.

Nu si, jag hafver i dag gjort dig lös utu kedjorna, der dina händer med bundna voro; lyster dig draga med mig till Babel, så kom, jag vill veta ditt bästa; lyster dig ock icke draga med mig till Babel, så låt det blifva; Si, der hafver du hela landet för dig; hvar dig tycker godt vara och dig behagar, dit gack.

5 And still he not he will return and return! to Gedaliah [the] son of Ahikam [the] son of Shaphan whom he has appointed [the] king of Babylon over [the] cities of Judah and remain with him in among the people or to any [place] right in view your to go go and he gave to him [the] chief of [the] bodyguards a food allowance and a present and he let go him.

Ty fram länger varder ingen omvändning mer; derföre må du vända om igen till Gedalia, Ahikams son, Saphans sons, den Konungen i Babel öfver Juda städer satt hafver, och blifva när honom ibland folket, eller gå bort, dit dig bäst täckes. Och höfvitsmannen gaf honom täring och skänker, och lät honom gå.

6 And he went Jeremiah to Gedaliah [the] son of Ahikam Mizpah towards and he remained with him in among the people who remained in the land.

Alltså kom Jeremia till Gedalia, Ahikams son, i Mizpa, och blef när honom ibland folket, som ännu i landena qvart blifvet var.

7 And they heard all [the] commanders of the armies which [were] in the open country they and men their that he had appointed [the] king of Babylon Gedaliah [the] son of Ahikam over the land and that - he had appointed with him men and women and little one[s] and some of [the] poor people of the land from [those] who not they had been taken into exile Babylon towards.

Då nu de höfvitsmän, som i markene lågo, samt med deras folk, fingo veta, att Konungen i Babel hade satt Gedalia, Ahikams son, öfver landet, och både öfver män och qvinnor, barn och de ringesta i landena, som till Babel icke förde voro,

8 And they came to Gedaliah Mizpah towards and Ishmael [the] son Nethaniah and Johanan and Jonathan [the] sons of Kareah and Seraiah [the] son of Tanhumeth and [the] sons of - (Ephai *Q(K)*) the Netophathite and Jezaniah [the] son of the Maacathite they and men their.

Kommo de till Gedalia i Mizpa, nämliga: Ismael, Nethanja son, Johanan och Jonathan, Kareahs söner, och Seraja, Thanhumeths son, och Ephai söner af Nethophat, och Jesania, Mahachati son, samt med deras män.

9 And he swore an oath to them Gedaliah [the] son of Ahikam [the] son of Shaphan and to men their saying may not you be afraid from serving the Chaldeans remain in the land and serve [the] king of Babylon so it may go well for you.

Och Gedalia, Ahikams son, Saphans sons, gjorde dem och deras män en ed, och sade: Frukter eder intet att vara de Chaldeer underdånige; blifver i landena, och varer Konungenom i Babel underdånige, så varder eder väl gåendes.

10 And I here I [will be] dwelling at Mizpah to stand before the Chaldeans who they will come to us and you gather wine and summer fruit and oil and put [them] in vessels your and dwell in cities your which you have taken hold of.

Si, jag bor här i Mizpa, på det jag skall tjena de Chaldeer, som till oss komma; derföre församler in vin, och fikon, och oljo, och låter det uti edor fat, och bor uti edra städer, som I fått hafven.

11 And also all the Jews who [were] in Moab - and among [the] people of Ammon and in Edom and who [were] in all the lands they heard that he had given [the] king of Babylon a remnant to Judah and that he had appointed over them Gedaliah [the] son of Ahikam [the] son of Shaphan.

Och alle de Judar, som i Moabs land voro, och Ammons barnas, och i Edom, och i all land, då de hörde att Konungen i Babel hade låtit somliga qvara blifva i Juda, och satt Gedalia, Ahikams son, Saphans sons, öfver dem,

12 And they returned all the Jews from all the places where they had been driven away there and they came [the] land of Judah to Gedaliah Mizpah towards and they gathered wine and summer fruit much exceedingly.

Kommo de alle igen ifrån all rum, dit de hade fördrefne varit, in uti Juda land, till Gedalia i Mizpa, och församlade in ganska mycket vin och fikon.

13 And Johanan [the] son of Kareah and all [the] commanders of the armies which [were] in the open country they came to Gedaliah Mizpah towards.

Men Johanan, Kareahs son, samt med alla höfvitsmännerna, som i markene legat hade, kommo till Gedalia i Mizpa;

14 And they said to him ¿ really do you know that Baalis - [the] king of [the] people of Ammon he has sent Ishmael [the] son of Nethaniah to strike you life and not he believed them Gedaliah [the] son of Ahikam.

Och sade till honom: Vetst du ock, att Baalis, Ammons barnas Konung, hafver sändt hit Ismael, Nethanja son, att han skall slå dig ihjäl. Så ville Gedalia, Ahikans son, icke tro dem.

15 And Johanan [the] son of Kareah he said to Gedaliah in secrecy at Mizpah saying let me go please and let me strike down Ishmael [the] son of Nethaniah and anyone not he will know why? will he strike you life and will they be scattered all Jews who have gathered to you and will it perish [the] remnant of Judah.

Då sade Johanan, Kareahs son, till Gedalia hemliga i Mizpa: Käre, jag vill gå bort, och slå Ismael, Nethanja son, ihjäl, så att ingen skall få vetat; hvi skall han slå dig, att alle de Judar, som till dig församlade äro, skola förströdde varda, och de som ännu af Juda qvare blefne äro, förgås?

16 And he said Gedaliah [the] son of Ahikam to Johanan [the] son of Kareah may not (you do *Q(k)*) the thing this for falsehood you [are] speaking concerning Ishmael.

Men Gedalia, Ahikams son, sade till Johanan, Kareahs son: Det skall du icke göra; det är intet sant, som du om Ismael säger.
