< Jeremiah 36 >
1 And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, that this word came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
I Josiases søn kong Jojakim af Judas fjerde regeringsår kom dette Ord til Jeremias fra HERREN:
2 Take thee a scroll of a book, and write in it all the words that I have spoken to thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spoke to thee, from the days of Josiah, even to this day.
"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 It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do to them; that they may return every man from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.
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 Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah: and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the LORD, which he had spoken to him, upon a scroll of a book.
Så tilkaldte Jeremias Baruk, Nerijas Søn, og Baruk optegnede i Bogrullen efter Jeremiass Mund alle de Ord, HERREN havde talet til ham.
5 And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut up; I cannot go into the house of the LORD:
Derpå sagde Jeremias til Baruk: "Jeg er hindret i at gå ind i HERRENs Hus;
6 Therefore go thou, and read in the scroll, which thou hast written from my mouth, the words of the LORD in the ears of the people in the LORD’S house upon the day of fasting: and also thou shalt read them in the ears of all Judah that come out of their cities.
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 It may be they will present their supplication before the LORD, and will return every one from his evil way: for great is the anger and the fury that the LORD hath pronounced against this people.
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 And Baruch the son of Neriah did according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, reading in the book the words of the LORD in the LORD’S house.
Og Baruk, Nerijas Søn, gjorde ganske som Profeten Jeremias pålagde ham, og oplæste HERRENs Ord af Bogen i HERRENs Hus.
9 And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, in the ninth month, that they proclaimed a fast before the LORD to all the people in Jerusalem, and to all the people that came from the cities of Judah to Jerusalem.
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 Then Baruch read in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of the LORD, in the chamber of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the higher court, at the entrance of the new gate of the LORD’S house, in the ears of all the people.
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 Michaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard out of the book all the words of the LORD,
Da nu Mika, en Søn af Sjatans Søn Gemarjahu, havde hørt HERRENs Ord oplæse af Bogen,
12 Then he went down into the king’s house, into the scribe’s chamber: and, lo, all the princes sat there, even Elishama the scribe, and Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan the son of Achbor, and Gemariah the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.
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 Then Michaiah declared to them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read the book in the ears of the people.
og Mika meldte dem alt, had han havde hørt, da Baruk læste Bogen op for Folket.
14 Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, Take in thy hand the scroll in which thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come. So Baruch the son of Neriah took the scroll in his hand, and came 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 And they said to him, Sit down now, and read it in our ears. So Baruch read it in their ears.
De sagde til ham: "Sæt dig og læs den for os!" Og Baruk læste for dem.
16 Now it came to pass, when they had heard all the words, they were afraid both one and another, and said to Baruch, We will surely tell the king of all these words.
Men da de havde hørt alle disse Ord, så de rædselslagne på hverandre og sagde: "Alt det må vi sige Kongen."
17 And they asked Baruch, saying, Tell us now, How didst thou write all these words at his mouth?
Og de spurgte Baruk: "Sig os, hvorledes du kom til at optegne alle disse Ord!"
18 Then Baruch answered them, He pronounced all these words to me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ink in the book.
Baruk svarede: "Jeremias foresagde mig alle Ordene, og jeg optegnede dem i Bogen med Blæk."
19 Then said the princes to Baruch, Go, hide thyself, thou and Jeremiah; and let no man know where ye are.
Så sagde Fyrsterne til Baruk: "Gå hen og gem eder, du og Jeremias, og lad ingen vide, hvor I er!"
20 And they went in to the king into the court, but they laid up the scroll in the chamber of Elishama the scribe, and told all the words in the ears of the king.
Efter så at have lagt Bogrullen til Side i Statsskriveren Elisjamas Kammer kom de til Kongen i hans Stue og sagde ham alt.
21 So the king sent Jehudi to bring the scroll: and he took it out of the chamber of Elishama the scribe. And Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the princes who stood beside the king.
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 Now the king sat in the winterhouse in the ninth month: and there was a fire on the hearth burning before him.
Kongen sad i Vinterhuset med et brændende Kulbækken foran sig;
23 And it came to pass, that when Jehudi had read three or four leaves, he cut it with the scribe’s penknife, and cast it into the fire that was on the hearth, until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was on the hearth.
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 Yet they were not afraid, nor tore their garments, neither the king, nor any of his servants that heard all these words.
Og hverken Kongen eller nogen af hans Folk blev rædselslagen eller sønderrev deres Klæder, da de hørte alle disse Ord;
25 Nevertheless Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the scroll: but he would not hear them.
men skønt Elnafan, Delaja og Gemarjahu bad Kongen ikke brænde Bogrullen, hørte han dem ikke.
26 But the king commanded Jerahmeel the son of Hammelech, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet: but the LORD hid them.
Derpå bød Kongen Kongesønnen Jerameel, Seraja Azriels Søn og Sjelemja Abdeels Søn at gribe Skriveren Baruk og Profeten Jeremias; men HERREN skjulte dem.
27 Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, after that the king had burned the scroll, and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, saying,
Men da Kongen havde brændt Bogrullen med de Ord, Baruk havde optegnet efter Jeremiass Mund, kom HERRENs Ord til Jeremias således:
28 Take thee again another scroll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first scroll, which Jehoiakim king of Judah hath 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 And thou shalt say to Jehoiakim king of Judah, Thus saith the LORD; Thou hast burned this scroll, saying, Why hast thou written in it, saying, The king of Babylon shall certainly come and destroy this land, and shall cause to cease from there man and beast?
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 Therefore thus saith the LORD concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah; He shall have none to sit upon the throne of David: and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.
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 And I will punish him and his seed and his servants for their iniquity; and I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them; but they hearkened not.
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 Then Jeremiah took another scroll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah; who wrote in it from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire: and there were besides added to them many like words.
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.
