Jeremiah 50
1 The word that Jehovah hath spoken concerning Babylon, concerning the land of the Chaldeans, by the hand of Jeremiah the prophet:
Beseda, ki jo je Gospod govoril zoper Babilon in zoper deželo Kaldejcev po preroku Jeremiju.
2 'Declare ye among nations, and sound, And lift up an ensign, sound, do not hide, Say ye: Captured hath been Babylon, Put to shame hath been Bel, Broken hath been Merodach, Put to shame have been her grievous things, Broken have been her idols.
Razglašajte med narodi in objavite in postavite prapor; objavite in ne prikrivajte. Recite: ›Babilon je zajet, Bel je zbegan, Merodáh je zlomljen na koščke; njegovi maliki so zbegani, njegove podobe so zlomljene na koščke.
3 For come up against her hath a nation from the north, It maketh her land become a desolation, And there is not an inhabitant in it. From man even unto beast, They have moved, they have gone.
Kajti iz severa prihaja narod zoper njega, ki bo njegovo deželo naredil zapuščeno in nihče ne bo prebival tam. Odstranjeni bodo, odšli bodo, tako človek kakor žival.
4 In those days, and at that time, An affirmation of Jehovah, Come in do sons of Israel, They and sons of Judah together, Going on and weeping they go, And Jehovah their God they seek.
V tistih dneh in v tistem času, ‹ govori Gospod, ›bodo prišli Izraelovi otroci, oni in Judovi otroci skupaj, šli bodo in jokali. Šli bodo in iskali Gospoda, svojega Boga.
5 [To] Zion they ask the way, Thitherward [are] their faces: Come in, and we are joined unto Jehovah, A covenant age-during — not forgotten.
Povpraševali bodo o poti na Sion, s svojimi obrazi tja, rekoč: ›Pridite, pridružimo se Gospodu z večno zavezo, ki ne bo pozabljena.‹
6 A perishing flock hath My people been, Their shepherds have caused them to err, [To] the mountains causing them to go back, From mountain unto hill they have gone, They have forgotten their crouching-place.
Moje ljudstvo so bile izgubljene ovce. Njihovi pastirji so jim povzročili, da zaidejo, obrnili so jih proč na gore. Tavali so od gore do hriba, pozabili so svoj kraj počitka.
7 All finding them have devoured them, And their adversaries have said: We are not guilty, Because that they sinned against Jehovah, The habitation of righteousness, And the hope of their fathers — Jehovah.
Vsi, ki so jih našli, so jih požrli, in njihovi nasprotniki so rekli: ›Ne delamo prestopka, ker so grešili zoper Gospoda, prebivališče pravice, celo Gospoda, upanje njihovih očetov.
8 Move ye from the midst of Babylon, And from the land of the Chaldeans go out. And be as he-goats before a flock.
Odstranite se iz srede Babilona in pojdite naprej, ven iz dežele Kaldejcev in bodite kakor kozli pred tropi.
9 For, lo, I am stirring up, And am causing to come up against Babylon, An assembly of great nations from a land of the north, And they have set in array against her, From thence she is captured, Its arrow — as a skilful hero — returneth not empty,
Kajti glejte, vzdignil se bom in povzročim, da pride proti Babilonu zbor velikih narodov iz severne dežele, in postrojili se bodo zoper njega; od tam bo zavzet. Njihove puščice bodo kakor od mogočnega, izkušenega človeka; nihče se ne bo vračal zaman.
10 And Chaldea hath been for a spoil, All her spoilers are satisfied, An affirmation of Jehovah.
In Kaldeja bo plen; vsi, ki jo plenijo, bodo nasičeni, ‹ ›govori Gospod.
11 Because thou rejoicest, because thou exultest, O spoilers of Mine inheritance, Because thou increasest as a heifer [at] the tender grass, And dost cry aloud as bulls,
›Ker ste bili veseli, ker ste se razveseljevali, oh vi uničevalci moje dediščine, ker ste postali debeli kakor telica ob travi in mukate kakor biki;
12 Ashamed hath been your mother greatly, Confounded hath she been that bare you, Lo, the hindermost of nations [is] a wilderness, A dry land, and a desert.
vaša mati bo silno zbegana; tista, ki vas je nosila, bo osramočena. Glejte, najbolj zadnji izmed narodov bodo divjina, suha dežela in puščava.
13 Because of the wrath of Jehovah it is not inhabited, And it hath been a desolation — all of it. Every passer by at Babylon is astonished, And doth hiss because of all her plagues.
Zaradi Gospodovega besa ta ne bo naseljena, temveč bo v celoti zapuščena. Vsak, kdor gre mimo Babilona, bo osupel in sikal bo ob vseh njegovih nadlogah.
14 Set yourselves in array against Babylon round about, All ye treading a bow, Shoot at her, have no pity on the arrow, For against Jehovah she hath sinned.
Postrojite se naokrog zoper Babilon. Vsi vi, ki upogibate lok, streljajte nanj. Ne varčujte puščic, kajti grešil je zoper Gospoda.
15 Shout against her round about, She hath given forth her hand, Fallen have her foundations, Thrown down have been her walls, For it [is] the vengeance of Jehovah, Be avenged of her, as she did — do ye to her.
Vpijte zoper njega vsenaokrog. Dal je svojo roko. Njegovi temelji so padli, njegovi zidovi so zrušeni, kajti to je maščevanje od Gospoda. Maščujte se nad njim, kajti kakor je storil on, storite njemu.
16 Cut off the sower from Babylon, And him handling the sickle in the time of harvest, Because of the oppressing sword, Each unto his people — they turn, And each to his land — they flee.
Iztrebi sejalca iz Babilona in tistega, ki ravna s srpom ob času žetve. Zaradi strahu pred zatiralskim mečem se bodo obrnili vsakdo k svojemu ljudstvu in bežali bodo vsakdo k svoji lastni deželi.
17 A scattered sheep is Israel, lions have driven away, At first, devour him did the king of Asshur, And now, at last, broken his bone Hath Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon.
Izrael je razkropljena ovca; levi so jo odgnali proč. Najprej jo je požrl kralj Asirije in nazadnje je ta babilonski kralj Nebukadnezar zlomil njene kosti.‹
18 Therefore thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel: Lo, I am seeing after the king of Babylon, And after his land, As I have seen after the king of Asshur;
Zato tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Glej, kaznoval bom babilonskega kralja in njegovo deželo, kakor sem kaznoval asirskega kralja.
19 And I have brought back Israel unto his habitation, And he hath fed on Carmel, and on Bashan. And in mount Ephraim, and on Gilead is his soul satisfied.
Izrael bom ponovno privedel k njegovemu prebivališču in pasel se bo na Karmelu in Bašánu in njegova duša bo nasičena na gori Efrájim in Gileád.
20 In those days, and at that time, An affirmation of Jehovah, Sought is the iniquity of Israel, and it is not, And the sin of Judah, and it is not found, For I am propitious to those whom I leave!
V tistih dneh in v tistem času, ‹ govori Gospod, ›bo iskana krivičnost Izraela, tam pa ne bo nobene; in Judovi grehi in le-ti ne bodo najdeni, kajti jaz bom oprostil tiste, ki sem jih prihranil.
21 Against the land of Merathaim: Go up against it, and unto the inhabitants of Pekod, Waste and devote their posterity, An affirmation of Jehovah, And do according to all that I have commanded thee.
Pojdi gor zoper deželo Meratájim, celó zoper njo in zoper prebivalce Pekóda. Pustoši in popolnoma uniči za njimi, ‹ govori Gospod ›in stori glede na vse, kar sem ti zapovedal.
22 A noise of battle [is] in the land, and of great destruction.
Zvok bitke in velikega uničenja je v deželi.
23 How hath it been cut and broken, The hammer of the whole earth! How hath Babylon been for a desolation among nations!
Kako je kladivo celotne zemlje razklano in zlomljeno! Kako je Babilon postal opustošenje med narodi!
24 I have laid a snare for thee, And also — thou art captured, O Babylon, And thou — thou hast known, Thou hast been found, and also art caught, For against Jehovah thou hast stirred thyself up.
Zate sem položil zanko in ti si prav tako zajet, oh Babilon in se nisi zavedal. Najden si in prav tako ujet, ker si se prepiral zoper Gospoda.
25 Jehovah hath opened His treasury, And He bringeth out the weapons of His indignation, For a work [is] to the Lord Jehovah of Hosts, In the land of the Chaldeans.
Gospod je odprl svojo orožarno in privedel orožja svojega ogorčenja, kajti to je delo od Gospoda Boga nad bojevniki v deželi Kaldejcev.
26 Come ye in to her from the extremity, Open ye her storehouses, Raise her up as heaps, and devote her, Let her have no remnant.
Pridite zoper njega od skrajne meje, odprite njegova skladišča. Nagrmadite ga kakor kupe in ga popolnoma uničite. Nič naj ne ostane od njega.
27 Slay all her kine, they go down to slaughter, Woe [is] on them, for come hath their day, The time of their inspection.
Zakoljite vse njegove bikce; naj gredo dol k zakolu. Gorje jim! Kajti prišel je njihov dan, čas njihovega obiskanja.
28 A voice of fugitives and escaped ones [Is] from the land of Babylon, To declare in Zion the vengeance of Jehovah our God, The vengeance of His temple.
Glas tistih, ki bežijo in pobegnejo iz babilonske dežele, da razglasijo na Sionu maščevanje Gospoda, našega Boga, maščevanje njegovega templja.
29 Summon unto Babylon archers, all treading the bow, Encamp against her round about, Let [her] have no escape; Recompense to her according to her work, According to all that she did — do to her, For unto Jehovah she hath been proud, Unto the Holy One of Israel.
Skliči skupaj lokostrelce zoper Babilon in vse, ki upogibajo lok, utabori se zoper njega vsenaokrog; naj nihče od njega ne pobegne. Poplačajte mu glede na njegovo delo; glede na vse, kar je storil, storite vi njemu; kajti ponosen je bil zoper Gospoda, zoper Svetega Izraelovega.
30 Therefore fall do her young men in her broad places, And all her men of war are cut off in that day, An affirmation of Jehovah.
Zato bodo njegovi mladeniči padli na ulicah in vsi njegovi bojevniki bodo na tisti dan odrezani, ‹ govori Gospod.
31 Lo, I [am] against thee, O pride, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah of Hosts, For thy day hath come, the time of thy inspection.
›Glej, jaz sem zoper tebe, oh ti, najponosnejši, govori Gospod Bog nad bojevniki, kajti tvoj dan je prišel, čas, da te obiščem.
32 And stumbled hath pride, And he hath fallen, and hath no raiser up, And I have kindled a fire in his cities, And it hath devoured all round about him.
Najponosnejši se bo spotaknil in padel in nihče ga ne bo dvignil. Prižgal bom ogenj v njegovih mestih in ta bo požrl vse naokoli njega.‹
33 Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Oppressed are the sons of Israel, And the sons of Judah together, And all their captors have kept hold on them, They have refused to send them away.
Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki: ›Izraelovi otroci in Judovi otroci so bili skupaj zatirani, in vsi, ki so jih vzeli [za] ujetnike, so jih trdno držali; odklonili so, da jih izpustijo.
34 Their Redeemer [is] strong, Jehovah of Hosts [is] His name, He doth thoroughly plead their cause, So as to cause the land to rest, And He hath given trouble to the inhabitants of Babylon.
Njihov Odkupitelj je močan; Gospod nad bojevniki je njegovo ime. Temeljito bo zagovarjal njihovo pravdo, da bi lahko dal počitek deželi in vznemiril babilonske prebivalce.
35 A sword [is] for the Chaldeans, An affirmation of Jehovah, And it [is] on the inhabitants of Babylon, And on her heads, and on her wise men;
Meč je nad Kaldejci, ‹ govori Gospod ›in nad prebivalci Babilona in nad njegovimi princi in nad njegovimi modrimi možmi.
36 A sword [is] on the princes, And they have become foolish; A sword [is] on her mighty ones, And they have been broken down;
Meč je na lažnivcih; in oni bodo nori. Meč je nad njegovimi mogočnimi možmi; in oni bodo zaprepadeni.
37 A sword [is] on his horses and on his chariot, And on all the rabble who [are] in her midst, And they have become women; A sword [is] on her treasuries, And they have been spoiled;
Meč je nad njihovimi konji in nad njihovimi bojnimi vozovi in nad vsemi pomešanimi ljudstvi, ki so v njegovi sredi; in postali bodo kakor ženske. Meč je nad njegovimi zakladi; in oni bodo oropani.
38 A sword [is] on her waters, and they have been dried up, For it [is] a land of graven images, And in idols they do boast themselves.
Suša je nad njegovimi vodami; in posušene bodo, kajti to je dežela rezanih podob in oni so usekani na svoje malike.
39 Therefore dwell do Ziim with Iim, Yea, dwelt in her have daughters of the ostrich, And it is not inhabited any more for ever, Nor dwelt in unto all generations.
Zato bodo tam živele divje živali iz puščave z divjimi živalmi z otokov in sove bodo prebivale tam, in ta ne bo več naseljen na veke; niti ne bo od roda do roda naseljen.
40 As overthrown by God with Sodom, And with Gomorrah, and with its neighbours, An affirmation of Jehovah, none doth dwell there, Nor sojourn in her doth a son of man.
Kakor je Bog razdejal Sódomo in Gomóro in njuna sosednja mesta, ‹ govori Gospod; › tako noben človek ne bo ostajal tam niti človeški sin ne bo prebival tam.
41 Lo, a people hath come from the north, Even a great nation, And many kings are stirred up from the sides of the earth.
Glej, ljudstvo bo prišlo iz severa in velik narod in številni kralji bodo vzdignjeni od obal zemlje.
42 Bow and halbert they seize, Cruel [are] they, and they have no mercy, Their voice as a sea soundeth, and on horses they ride, Set in array as a man for battle, Against thee, O daughter of Babylon.
Držali bodo lok in sulico. Kruti so in ne bodo pokazali usmiljenja. Njihov glas bo rjovel kakor morje in jahali bodo na konjih, vsakdo postrojen, kakor mož k bitki, zoper tebe, oh babilonska hči.
43 Heard hath the king of Babylon their report, And feeble have been his hands, Distress hath seized him; pain as a travailing woman.
Babilonski kralj je slišal poročilo o njih in njegovi roki sta oslabeli. Tesnoba se ga je polastila in ostre bolečine, kakor žensko v porodnih mukah.
44 Lo, as a lion he cometh up, Because of the rising of the Jordan, Unto the enduring habitation, But I cause to rest, I cause them to run from off her. And who is chosen? on her I lay a charge, For who [is] like Me? And who doth convene Me? And who [is] this shepherd who standeth before Me?
Glej, prišel bo gor kakor lev iz naraščanja Jordana k prebivališču močnega, toda storil bom, da bodo nenadoma pobegnili proč pred njim. In kdo je izbran mož, da bi ga lahko določil čezenj? Kajti kdo je podoben meni? In kdo mi bo določil čas? In kdo je tisti pastir, ki bo stal pred menoj?
45 Therefore, hear ye the counsel of Jehovah, That He counselled concerning Babylon, And His devices that He hath devised Concerning the land of the Chaldeans; Drag them out do not little ones of the flock, Doth He not make desolate over them the habitation?
Zato prisluhnite Gospodovemu nasvetu, ki ga je sprejel zoper Babilon; in njegovim namenom, ki jih je namenil zoper deželo Kaldejcev: ›Zagotovo bodo najmanjše izmed tropa potegnili ven. Zagotovo bo njihovo prebivališče naredil zapuščeno.
46 From the voice: Captured was Babylon, Hath the earth been shaken, And a cry among nations hath been heard!
Ob hrupu zajetja Babilona je zemlja stresena in krik je slišati med narodi.‹«
