Jeremiah 36
1 When Jehoiakim had been the king of Judah for almost four years, Yahweh gave this message to me:
I Josiases søn kong Jojakim af Judas fjerde regeringsår kom dette Ord til Jeremias fra HERREN:
2 “Get a scroll, and write on it the messages that I have given to you regarding Israel, Judah, and the other nations. Write all of the messages, starting from the time that I gave you the first message, when Josiah was the king, up until now.
"Tag dig en Bogrulle og skriv deri alle de Ord, jeg har talet til dig om Jerusalem og Juda og om alle Folkene, fra den Dag jeg først talede til dig, fra Josiass dage og til den Dag i Dag.
3 When the people of Judah hear [again] about all the disasters that I plan to cause them to experience, perhaps each one of them will repent. If they do that, I will be able to forgive them for the wrong/evil things that they have done.”
Måske vil Judas Hus mærke sig al den Ulykke, jeg har i Sinde at gøre dem, for at de må omvende sig hver fra sin onde Vej, så jeg kan tilgive deres Brøde og Synd."
4 [So] I summoned Baruch, the son of Neraiah. Then, as I dictated to him all the messages that Yahweh had spoken to me, he wrote them on a scroll.
Så tilkaldte Jeremias Baruk, Nerijas Søn, og Baruk optegnede i Bogrullen efter Jeremiass Mund alle de Ord, HERREN havde talet til ham.
5 Then I said to him, “I am not allowed to [leave here and] go to the temple.
Derpå sagde Jeremias til Baruk: "Jeg er hindret i at gå ind i HERRENs Hus;
6 So, you go [to the temple] on the [next] day when the people are (fasting/abstaining from food), and read to them the messages from Yahweh that you wrote while I dictated them to you. Read them [aloud] to all the people [who are there, including] the people of Judah who come [there] from their towns.
men gå du ind og læs HERRENs Ord op af Bogrullen, som du skrev efter min Mund, for Folket i HERRENs Hus på en Fastedag; også for alle Judæere, der kommer ind fra deres Byer, skal du læse dem.
7 Perhaps they will turn from their evil behavior and request Yahweh [to act mercifully toward them]. [They must do that, ] because Yahweh is very angry with them and has threatened to punish them severely.”
Måske når deres klage HERRENs Åsyn, måske omvender de sig hver fra sin onde Vej; thi stor er Vreden og Harmen, som HERREN har udtalt mod dette Folk."
8 Baruch did what I told him to do. He [went to the temple and] read [to the people] all those messages from Yahweh.
Og Baruk, Nerijas Søn, gjorde ganske som Profeten Jeremias pålagde ham, og oplæste HERRENs Ord af Bogen i HERRENs Hus.
9 He did it in December on a day when their leaders had proclaimed that all the people in Jerusalem and the people who had come there from [other] towns in Judah should fast to [please/honor] Yahweh. [It was when] Jehoiakim had been king for almost five years.
I Josiass Søns, Kong Jojakim af Judas, femte Regeringsår i den niende Måned udråbte alt Folket i Jerusalem og alt Folket, der fra Judas Byer kom ind til Jerusalem, en Faste for HERREN.
10 Baruch read to all the people the messages [that he had written] on the scroll. [He read them while he was] in the temple, in the room where Gemariah stayed. He was the son of Shaphan, [who had previously been the king’s] secretary. That room was close to the upper courtyard [of the temple], near the entrance to the temple that is [called] the New Gate.
Da oplæste Baruk for alt Folket Jeremiass Ord af Bogen i HERRENs Hus, i Gemarjahus, Statsskriveren Sjafans Søns, Kammer i den øvre Forgård ved Indgangen til HERRENs Huss nye Port.
11 When Micaiah, who was the son of Gemariah and grandson of Shaphan, heard those messages from Yahweh,
Da nu Mika, en Søn af Sjatans Søn Gemarjahu, havde hørt HERRENs Ord oplæse af Bogen,
12 he went down to the secretary’s room in the palace, where all the king’s officials were meeting. Elishama the [king’s] secretary [was there]. Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, Elnathan the son of Acbor, Gemariah, Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the [other] officials [of the king were also there].
gik han ned i Kongens Hus til Statsskriverens Kammer, hvor han traf alle Fyrsterne siddende, Statsskriveren Elisjama, Delaja Sjemajas Søn, Elnatan Akbors Søn, Gemarjahu Sjafans Søn, Zidkija Hananjas Søn og alle de andre Fyrster;
13 When Micaiah told them about the messages that Baruch had been reading to the people,
og Mika meldte dem alt, had han havde hørt, da Baruk læste Bogen op for Folket.
14 the officials sent Jehudi, who was the son of Nethaniah and grandson of Shelemiah and great-grandson of Cushi, to tell Baruch to come [and read the messages to them, also]. So Baruch took the scroll and went to them.
Da sendte alle Fyrsterne Jehudi, en Søn af Netanja, en Søn af Sjelemja, en Søn af Kusji, til Baruk og lod sige: "Tag Bogrullen, du læste op for Folket, og kom her ned!" Så tog Baruk, Nerijas Søn, Bogrullen og kom til dem.
15 They said to him, “Please sit down and read it [to us].” So Baruch did what they requested.
De sagde til ham: "Sæt dig og læs den for os!" Og Baruk læste for dem.
16 After they had heard all the messages, they were afraid. They looked at each other and [then] they said, “We must tell these messages to the king!”
Men da de havde hørt alle disse Ord, så de rædselslagne på hverandre og sagde: "Alt det må vi sige Kongen."
17 Then they asked Baruch, “How did you get this scroll? Did Jeremiah dictate to you all the messages on this scroll?”
Og de spurgte Baruk: "Sig os, hvorledes du kom til at optegne alle disse Ord!"
18 Baruch replied, “[Yes], Jeremiah dictated them to me, and I wrote them with ink on this scroll.”
Baruk svarede: "Jeremias foresagde mig alle Ordene, og jeg optegnede dem i Bogen med Blæk."
19 Then the officials told Baruch, “You and Jeremiah must both hide. Do not tell anyone where you are!”
Så sagde Fyrsterne til Baruk: "Gå hen og gem eder, du og Jeremias, og lad ingen vide, hvor I er!"
20 They put the scroll in the room of Elishama, the king’s secretary. Then they went to the king, who was in the courtyard, and reported to him everything [that Baruch had read to them].
Efter så at have lagt Bogrullen til Side i Statsskriveren Elisjamas Kammer kom de til Kongen i hans Stue og sagde ham alt.
21 Then the king sent Jehudi to get the scroll. Jehudi brought it from Elishama’s room and read it to the king, while all the [king’s] officials were standing there.
Så sendte Kongen Jehudi hen at hente Bogrullen i Statsskriveren Elisjamas Kammer; og Jehudi læste den op for Kongen og alle Fyrsterne, der stod om Kongen.
22 It was in the cold season, and the king was in a part of the palace where he stayed when it was cold. He was sitting in front of a fire [to keep/be warm].
Kongen sad i Vinterhuset med et brændende Kulbækken foran sig;
23 Each time Jehudi finished reading three or four columns, the king cut off that section of the scroll with a knife and threw it into the fire. He did that, section by section, until the entire scroll was burned up.
og hver Gang Jehudi havde læst tre fire Spalter, skar Kongen dem af med Statsskriverens Pennekniv og kastede dem på Ilden i Bækkenet, indtil hele Bogrullen var fortæret af Ilden i Bækkenet.
24 Neither the king nor his officials showed that they were afraid [that God would punish them]. They did not tear their clothes [to show that they were sorry for what they had done].
Og hverken Kongen eller nogen af hans Folk blev rædselslagen eller sønderrev deres Klæder, da de hørte alle disse Ord;
25 Elnathan, Delaiah, and Gemariah pleaded with the king not to burn the scroll, but he did not pay any attention.
men skønt Elnafan, Delaja og Gemarjahu bad Kongen ikke brænde Bogrullen, hørte han dem ikke.
26 Then the king commanded his son Jerahmeel, Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel to arrest Baruch and me. But [they were unable to do that because] Yahweh had hidden us.
Derpå bød Kongen Kongesønnen Jerameel, Seraja Azriels Søn og Sjelemja Abdeels Søn at gribe Skriveren Baruk og Profeten Jeremias; men HERREN skjulte dem.
27 After the king had burned the scroll on which were written the messages that I had dictated to Baruch, Yahweh said this to me:
Men da Kongen havde brændt Bogrullen med de Ord, Baruk havde optegnet efter Jeremiass Mund, kom HERRENs Ord til Jeremias således:
28 “Get another scroll, and [tell Baruch to] write everything again, the same messages that he had written on the scroll that the king burned.
"Tag dig en anden Bogrulle og optegn i den alle de Ord, som stod i den første Bogrulle, den, Kong Jojakim af Juda brændte.
29 [Then go to] the king and say to him, ‘Yahweh says this: “You burned the scroll [because you did not like] what was written on it, that the king of Babylon would surely [RHQ] come [with his army] and destroy this land and get rid of all the people and the animals.
Og til Kong Jojakim af Juda skal du sige: Så siger HERREN: Du brændte denne Bogrulle og sagde: Hvorfor skrev du i den: Babels Konge skal komme og ødelægge dette Land og udrydde både Folk og Fæ?
30 Now this is what [I], Yahweh, say about [you], Jehoiakim: 'None of your descendants will rule this kingdom [MTY]. Your corpse will be thrown out [on the ground and not be buried]; it will be under the hot [sun] during the days and [struck by] frost during the nights.
Derfor, så siger HERREN om Kong Jojakim af Juda: Han skal ikke have nogen Mand til at sidde på Davids Trone, og hans Lig skal slænges hen og gives Dagens Hede og Nattens Kulde i Vold;
31 I will punish you and your family and your officials for their sins. And I will cause the people of Jerusalem and the people of the [other] towns in Judah to experience all the disasters that I promised, because you all would not pay attention [to what I said]!'” '”
jeg vil hjemsøge ham, hans Afkom og hans Tjenere for deres Brøde og bringe over dem og Jerusalems Borgere og Judas Mænd al den Ulykke, jeg har udtalt over dem, uden at de vilde høre."
32 So I took another scroll, and again I dictated the messages to Baruch. He wrote everything that had been written on the [other] scroll, the one that King Jehoiakim had burned in the fire. [But this time, I] added more messages.
Så tog Jeremias en anden Bogrulle og gav den til Skriveren Baruk, Nerijas Søn; og han optegnede i den efter Jeremiass Mund alle Ordene fra den Bog, Kong Jojakim af Juda havde brændt. Og flere lignende Ord lagdes til.
