Jeremiah 11
1 The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying,
Beseda, ki je prišla k Jeremiju od Gospoda, rekoč:
2 “Listen to the words of this covenant, and declare them to each man in Judah and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
»Poslušaj besede te zaveze in govori možem iz Juda in prebivalcem [prestolnice] Jeruzalem
3 Say to them, 'Yahweh, God of Israel says this: Cursed is anyone who does not listen to the words of this covenant.
in jim reci: ›Tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog: ›Preklet bodi mož, ki ne uboga besed te zaveze,
4 This is the covenant that I commanded your ancestors to keep the day I brought them out from the land of Egypt, from the furnace for smelting iron. I said, “Listen to my voice and do all of these things just as I have commanded you, for you will be my people and I will be your God.”
ki sem jo zapovedal vašim očetom na dan, ko sem jih izpeljal iz egiptovske dežele, iz železne talilne peči, rekoč: ›Ubogajte moj glas in jih izvršujte, glede na vse, kar vam zapovedujem. Tako boste moje ljudstvo in jaz bom vaš Bog,
5 Obey me so that I may confirm the oath that I swore to your ancestors, the oath that I would give them the land flowing with milk and honey, where you live today.'” Then I, Jeremiah, answered and said, “Yes, Yahweh!”
da bom lahko izpolnil prisego, ki sem jo prisegel vašim očetom, da jim dam deželo, kjer tečeta mleko in med, kakor je to ta dan.‹« Potem sem odgovoril in rekel: »Tako naj bo, oh Gospod.«
6 Yahweh said to me, “Proclaim all these things in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. Say, 'Listen to the words of this covenant and carry them out.
Potem mi je Gospod rekel: »Razglasi vse te besede po Judovih mestih in ulicah Jeruzalema, rekoč: ›Poslušajte besede te zaveze in jih izpolnjujte.
7 For I have been giving solemn commands to your ancestors from the day I brought them up from the land of Egypt until this present time, persistently warning them and saying, “Listen to my voice.”'
Kajti iskreno sem izpričal vašim očetom na dan, ko sem jih privedel gor iz egiptovske dežele, celó do današnjega dne, [jih] zgodaj vzdigoval in izjavljal, rekoč: ›Ubogajte moj glas.‹
8 But they did not listen or pay attention. Each person has been walking in the stubbornness of his wicked heart. So I brought all the curses in this covenant that I commanded to come against them. But the people still did not obey.”
Vendar niso ubogali niti nagnili svojega ušesa, temveč so vsi hodili v zamisli svojega zlega srca. Zato bom nanje privedel vse besede te zaveze, ki sem jim jo zapovedal izpolnjevati, toda oni jih niso izpolnjevali.
9 Next Yahweh said to me, “A conspiracy has been discovered among the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Gospod mi je rekel: »Zarota je najdena med Judovimi možmi in med prebivalci Jeruzalema.
10 They have turned to the iniquities of their earliest ancestors, who refused to listen to my word, who instead walked after other gods to worship them. The house of Israel and the house of Judah broke my covenant that I established with their ancestors.
Obrnili so se nazaj h krivičnostim svojih pradedov, ki so odklanjali poslušati moje besede; in šli za drugimi bogovi, da jim služijo. Izraelova hiša in Judova hiša sta prelomili mojo zavezo, ki sem jo sklenil z njihovimi očeti.
11 Therefore Yahweh says this, 'See, I am about to bring disaster on them, disaster from which they will not be able to escape. Then they will call out to me, but I will not listen to them.
Zato tako govori Gospod: ›Glej, nanje bom privedel zlo, ki mu ne bodo mogli pobegniti. Čeprav bodo klicali k meni, jim ne bom prisluhnil.
12 The cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem will go and call out to the gods to which they had given offerings, but they will certainly not be saved by them at the time of their disaster.
Potem bodo Judova mesta in prebivalci Jeruzalema šli in klicali k bogovom, katerim darujejo kadilo. Toda sploh jih ne bodo rešili v času njihove stiske.
13 For you Judah, the number of your gods has increased to equal the number of your cities. You have made the number of shameful altars in Jerusalem, incense altars for Baal, equal to the number of her streets.
Kajti glede na število tvojih mest so bili tvoji bogovi, oh Juda; in glede na število ulic [prestolnice] Jeruzalem ste postavili oltarje tisti sramotni stvari, celó oltarje, da zažigate kadilo Báalu.
14 So you yourself, Jeremiah, must not pray for this people. You must not wail or pray on their behalf. For I will not be listening when they call on me in their disaster.
Zatorej ne moli za to ljudstvo niti ne povzdiguj vpitja ali molitve zanje, kajti jaz jih ne bom poslušal ob času, ko zaradi svoje stiske vpijejo k meni.
15 Why is my beloved one, the one who has had so many wicked intentions, in my house? The meat of your sacrifices cannot help you. You rejoice because of your evil actions.
Kaj ima moj ljubljeni za početi v moji hiši, ko vidi, da je ona izvrševala nespodobnost s številnimi in je sveto meso odšlo od tebe? Ko počneš zlo, potem se razveseljuješ.
16 In the past Yahweh called you a leafy olive tree, beautiful with lovely fruit. But he will light a fire on it that will sound like the roar of a storm; its branches will be broken.
Gospod je tvoje ime imenoval: ›Zelena oljka, čeden in lep sad.‹ Z zvokom velikega hrupa je na njej vžgal ogenj in njene mladike so polomljene.
17 For Yahweh of hosts, the one who planted you, has decreed disaster against you because of the wicked acts that the house of Israel and the house of Judah have committed—they have angered me by giving offerings to Baal.'”
Kajti Gospod nad bojevniki, ki te je zasadil, je zoper tebe proglasil zlo, zaradi zla Izraelove hiše in Judove hiše, ki so ga storili zoper sebe, da bi me dražili do jeze v darovanju kadila Báalu.
18 Yahweh made me know these things, so I know them. You, Yahweh, made me see their deeds.
Gospod mi je dal spoznanje o tem in jaz sem to spoznal; takrat si mi kazal njihova dejanja.
19 I was like a gentle lamb being led to a butcher. I did not know that they had formed plans against me, “Let us destroy the tree with its fruit! Let us cut him off from the land of the living so his name will be no longer remembered.”
Toda jaz sem bil podoben jagnjetu ali volu, ki je priveden h klanju in nisem vedel, da so zoper mene snovali naklepe, rekoč: »Uničimo drevo skupaj z njegovim sadom in odsekajmo ga iz dežele živih, da se njegovega imena ne bo več spominjalo.«
20 Yet Yahweh of hosts is the righteous judge who examines the heart and the mind. I will witness your vengeance against them, for I have presented my case to you.
Toda, oh Gospod nad bojevniki, ki sodiš pravično, ki preizkušaš notranjost in srce, naj vidim tvoje maščevanje na njih, kajti tebi sem razodel svoj primer.
21 Therefore Yahweh says this concerning the people of Anathoth who are seeking your life, “They say, 'You must not prophesy in the name of Yahweh, or you will die by our hand.'
»Zato tako govori Gospod o možeh iz Anatóta, ki ti strežejo po življenju, rekoč: ›Ne prerokuj v Gospodovem imenu, da ne umreš po naši roki.‹
22 Therefore Yahweh of hosts says this, 'See, I am about to punish them. Their vigorous young men will die by the sword. Their sons and their daughters will die by famine.
Zato tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki: ›Glej, kaznoval jih bom; mladenič bo umrl pod mečem, njihovi sinovi in njihove hčere bodo umrli od lakote.
23 None of them will be left, because I am bringing disaster against the people of Anathoth, a year of their punishment.'”
Tam ne bo nobenega ostanka izmed njih, kajti nad ljudi iz Anatóta bom privedel zlo, celó leto njihovega obiskanja.‹«
