Jeremiah 28
1 When Zedekiah had been the King of Judah for more than three years, late in the (summer/hot season), Azzur’s son Hananiah, a prophet from Gibeon [city], spoke to me in the [courtyard of the] temple, while [all] the priests and other people were listening. He said,
Og det skete i dette Aar, i Begyndelsen af Judas Konge Zedekias's Regering, i det fjerde Aar, i den femte Maaned, at Profeten Hananias, Assurs Søn, som var fra Gibeon, sagde saaledes til mig i Herrens Hus, for Præsterne og alt Folkets Øjne:
2 “This is what the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom [we] Israelis [worship], says: ‘I will cause the king of Babylon to stop ruling/controlling [MET] [all of you].
Saa siger den Herre Zebaoth, Israels Gud: Jeg har sønderbrudt Kongen af Babels Aag.
3 (Within two years/Before two years have ended), I will cause to be brought bring back to this temple all the valuable things that King Nebuchadnezzar’s [soldiers] took from this temple and took to Babylon.
Inden et Par Aars Tid er omme, vil jeg føre tilbage til dette Sted alle Herrens Hus's Kar, som Nebukadnezar, Kongen af Babel, tog fra dette Sted og førte til Babel.
4 And I will also cause King Jehoiachin to be brought back here, and all the [other] people who were captured and taken to Babylon. The king of Babylon has [forced you to do what he wants, like someone] puts a yoke [on the neck of an ox to force it to do what he] wants [MET] it to do. But I will cause that to end. [That will happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.’”
Og Jekonias, Jojakims Søn, Judas Konge og alle bortførte af Juda, som ere komne til Babel, vil jeg føre tilbage til dette Sted, siger Herren; thi jeg vil sønderbryde Kongen af Babels Aag.
5 I replied to Hananiah in front of [all] the priests and other people who were standing outside the temple.
Og Profeten Jeremias sagde til Profeten Hananias for Præsternes Øjne og for alt Folkets Øjne, medens de stode i Herrens Hus,
6 I said, “(Amen/May that happen)! I desire/hope that what you have predicted will happen. I hope/desire that Yahweh will do everything that you have said! I hope/desire that he will cause [men from Babylon] to bring back from Babylon [all] the valuable things that were in this temple, and all the people who were taken [to Babylon].
ja, Profeten Jeremias sagde: Amen! Herren gøre saa, Herren stadfæste dine Ord, som du har spaaet om, at han vil lade Herrens Hus's Kar og alle bortførte komme tilbage fra Babel til dette Sted!
7 But now listen to what I say to you while all these people are listening.
Men hør kun dette Ord, som jeg taler for dine Øren og for alt Folkets Øren:
8 Many years ago, those who were prophets before you and I [became prophets] spoke messages about many nations and great kingdoms. They predicted/prophesied that wars and disasters and plagues/diseases would occur in those nations.
Profeterne, som have været før mig og før dig af fordums Tid, spaaede imod mange Lande og imod store Riger om Krig og om Ulykke og om Pest.
9 [So now you or] any other prophet who predicts that things will go well [for us must show that your message is correct. Only] if what you predict actually happens will we know that you were truly appointed by Yahweh.”
Men naar Profeten spaar om Fred, saa vil han, naar Profetens Ord gaar i Opfyldelse, erkendes som den Profet, Herren i Sandhed har sendt.
10 Then Hananiah took the yoke off my neck and broke it.
Da tog Profeten Hananias Aaget af Profeten Jeremias's Hals og sønderbrød det.
11 Then he said this to all the people who were there: “This is what Yahweh says: ‘Just like Hananiah has broken this yoke, within two years I will cause King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon to [stop forcing the people to do what he wants, which has been like] a heavy yoke on all their necks [MET].’” After Hananiah said that, I left the temple area.
Og Hananias sagde saaledes for alt Folkets Øjne: Saa siger Herren: Saaledes vil jeg inden et Par Aars Tid er omme, bryde Nebukadnezar, Kongen af Babels Aag af alle Folkenes Hals; og Profeten Jeremias gik sin Vej.
12 [Soon] after Hananiah had broken the yoke that was around my neck, Yahweh gave this message to me:
Men Herrens Ord kom til Jeremias, efter at Profeten Hananias havde brudt Aaget af Profeten Jeremias's Hals, og han sagde:
13 “Go and say this to Hananiah: ‘Yahweh says that you have broken a wooden yoke, but that he will replace it with an iron yoke.
Gak og sig saaledes til Hananias: Saa siger Herren: Du har sønderbrudt Træaag, men du har gjort Jernaag i Stedet for.
14 I have forced the people of all these nations to [become slaves of] King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. That is [like] [MET] an iron yoke around their necks. I have put everything, even wild animals, under his control.’”
Thi saa siger den Herre Zebaoth, Israels Gud: Jeg har lagt et Jernaag paa alle disse Folks Hals, at de maa tjene Nebukadnezar, Kongen af Babel, og de skulle tjene ham; ogsaa de vilde Dyr paa Marken har jeg givet ham.
15 Then I [went to] Hananiah and said to him, “Hananiah, listen [to this]: Yahweh has not appointed you; instead, [you have told] lies to the people, and they have believed your lies.
Og Profeten Jeremias sagde til Profeten Hananias: Hør dog, Hananias! Herren har ikke sendt dig, og du har faaet dette Folk til at forlade sig paa Løgn.
16 Therefore, this is what Yahweh says: ‘You will [soon] die. Before the end of this year, you will die, because you have rebelled against Yahweh.’”
Derfor, saa siger Herren: Se, jeg vil sende dig bort fra Jordens Kreds; i dette Aar skal du dø, thi du har prædiket Frafald fra Herren.
17 Hananiah died two months later.
Saa døde Profeten Hananias i det samme Aar, i den syvende Maaned.
