Jeremija 17
1 »Judov greh je zapisan z železnim peresom in z diamantno konico. Ta je vrezan na ploščo njihovega srca in na rogove njihovih oltarjev,
“The sin of Judah is written with an iron stylus, engraved with a diamond point on the tablets of their hearts and on the horns of their altars.
2 medtem ko se njihovi otroci spominjajo njihovih oltarjev in njihovih ašer pri zelenih drevesih na visokih hribih.
Even their children remember their altars and Asherah poles by the green trees and on the high hills.
3 Oh moja gora na polju, tvoje imetje in vse tvoje zaklade bom izročil v plen in tvoje visoke kraje zaradi greha, po vseh tvojih mejah.
O My mountain in the countryside, I will give over your wealth and all your treasures as plunder, because of the sin of your high places, within all your borders.
4 Ti pa, celo ti sam, boš odpravljen od svoje dediščine, ki sem ti jo dal in povzročil ti bom, da služiš svojim sovražnikom v deželi, ki je ne poznaš, kajti zanetili ste ogenj v moji jezi, ki bo gorel na veke.«
And you yourself will relinquish the inheritance that I gave you. I will enslave you to your enemies in a land that you do not know, for you have kindled My anger; it will burn forever.”
5 Tako govori Gospod: »Preklet bodi človek, ki zaupa v moža in postavlja osebo [za] svoj laket in katerega srce odhaja od Gospoda.
This is what the LORD says: “Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind, who makes the flesh his strength and turns his heart from the LORD.
6 Kajti podoben bo brinu v puščavi in ne bo videl, ko prihaja dobro, temveč bo naselil izsušene kraje v divjini, v slani in nenaseljeni deželi.
He will be like a shrub in the desert; he will not see when prosperity comes. He will dwell in the parched places of the desert, in a salt land where no one lives.
7 Blagoslovljen je človek, ki zaupa v Gospoda in čigar upanje je v Gospodu.
But blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, whose confidence is in Him.
8 Kajti on bo kakor drevo, posajeno ob vodah in ki razširja svoje korenine ob reki in ne bo videlo, ko prihaja vročina, temveč bo njegovo listje zeleno; v sušnem letu ne bo zaskrbljeno niti ne bo prenehalo rojevati sadu.
He is like a tree planted by the waters that sends out its roots toward the stream. It does not fear when the heat comes, and its leaves are always green. It does not worry in a year of drought, nor does it cease to produce fruit.
9 Srce je varljivo nad vsemi stvarmi in obupno zlobno. Kdo ga lahko spozna?
The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?
10 Jaz, Gospod, preiskujem srce, jaz preizkušam notranjost, celó da vsakemu človeku dam glede na njegove poti in glede na sad njegovih dejanj.
I, the LORD, search the heart; I examine the mind to reward a man according to his way, by what his deeds deserve.
11 Kakor jerebica sedi na jajcih, ki jih ni znesla, tako tisti, ki pridobiva bogastva, pa ne po pravici, jih bo zapustil v sredi svojih dni in ob svojem koncu bo bedak.«
Like a partridge hatching eggs it did not lay is the man who makes a fortune unjustly. In the middle of his days his riches will desert him, and in the end he will be the fool.”
12 Veličasten visok prestol od začetka je prostor našega svetišča.
A glorious throne, exalted from the beginning, is the place of our sanctuary.
13 Oh Gospod, Izraelovo upanje, vsi, ki te zapustijo, bodo osramočeni in tisti, ki odidejo od mene, bodo zapisani v zemljo, ker so zapustili Gospoda, studenec živih vodá.
O LORD, the hope of Israel, all who abandon You will be put to shame. All who turn away will be written in the dust, for they have abandoned the LORD, the fountain of living water.
14 Ozdravi me, oh Gospod in jaz bom ozdravljen, reši me in jaz bom rešen, kajti ti si moja hvala.
Heal me, O LORD, and I will be healed; save me, and I will be saved, for You are my praise.
15 Glej, pravijo mi: »Kje je beseda od Gospoda? Naj ta sedaj pride.«
Behold, they keep saying to me, “Where is the word of the LORD? Let it come now!”
16 Kar se mene tiče, nisem hitel pred tem, da bi bil pastir, da ti sledim. Niti si nisem želel dneva, polnega gorja; ti veš. To, kar je prišlo iz mojih ustnic, je bilo pred teboj pravilno.
But I have not run away from being Your shepherd; I have not desired the day of despair. You know that the utterance of my lips was spoken in Your presence.
17 Ne bodi mi strahota. Ti si moje upanje v dnevu zla.
Do not become a terror to me; You are my refuge in the day of disaster.
18 Naj bodo zbegani [tisti], ki me preganjajo, toda jaz naj ne bom zbegan. Naj bodo zaprepadeni, toda jaz naj ne bom zaprepaden. Nanje privedi dan zla in jih uniči z dvojnim uničenjem.
Let my persecutors be put to shame, but do not let me be put to shame. Let them be terrified, but do not let me be terrified. Bring upon them the day of disaster and shatter them with double destruction.
19 Tako mi je rekel Gospod: »Pojdi in stoj v velikih vratih otrok ljudstva, pri katerih Judovi kralji vstopajo in pri katerih gredo ven in v vseh jeruzalemskih velikih vratih
This is what the LORD said to me: “Go and stand at the gate of the people, through which the kings of Judah go in and out; and stand at all the other gates of Jerusalem.
20 in jim reci: ›Poslušajte Gospodovo besedo, vi Judovi kralji in ves Juda in vsi prebivalci Jeruzalema, ki vstopate pri teh velikih vratih.
Say to them, ‘Hear the word of the LORD, O kings of Judah, all people of Judah and Jerusalem who enter through these gates.
21 Tako govori Gospod: ›Pazite nase in na šabatni dan ne prenašajte nobenega bremena niti tega ne prinašajte noter pri jeruzalemskih velikih vratih.
This is what the LORD says: Take heed for yourselves; do not carry a load or bring it through the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day.
22 Niti ne prinašajte bremena iz svojih hiš na šabatni dan niti ne počnite nobenega dela, temveč posvečujte šabatni dan, kakor sem zapovedal vašim očetom.
You must not carry a load out of your houses or do any work on the Sabbath day, but you must keep the Sabbath day holy, just as I commanded your forefathers.
23 Toda niso ubogali niti niso nagnili svojega ušesa, temveč so otrdili svoj vrat, da ne bi niti slišali niti prejeli poučevanja.
Yet they would not listen or incline their ear, but they stiffened their necks and would not listen or receive My discipline.
24 In zgodilo se bo, če mi boste marljivo prisluhnili, ‹ govori Gospod, ›da ne prinašate nobenega bremena skozi velika vrata tega mesta na šabatni dan, temveč posvečujete šabatni dan, da v tem [dnevu] ne delate nobenega dela,
If, however, you listen carefully to Me, says the LORD, and bring no load through the gates of this city on the Sabbath day, and keep the Sabbath day holy, and do no work on it,
25 potem bodo tam, v velika vrata tega mesta, vstopali kralji in princi, sedeč na Davidovem prestolu, jahajoč na bojnih vozovih in konjih, oni in njihovi princi, Judovi možje in prebivalci Jeruzalema; in to mesto bo ostalo na veke.
then kings and princes will enter through the gates of this city. They will sit on the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses with their officials, along with the men of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem, and this city will be inhabited forever.
26 Prišli bodo iz Judovih mest in iz krajev okoli Jeruzalema in iz Benjaminove dežele in ravnine in z gora in iz juga, prinašajoč žgalne daritve, klavne daritve, jedilne daritve in kadilo ter prinašajoč daritve hvale v Gospodovo hišo.
And people will come from the cities of Judah and the places around Jerusalem, from the land of Benjamin, and from the foothills, the hill country, and the Negev, bringing burnt offerings and sacrifices, grain offerings and frankincense, and thank offerings to the house of the LORD.
27 Toda če mi ne boste prisluhnili, da posvečujete šabatni dan in da ne nosite bremena, celo ko vstopate pri jeruzalemskih velikih vratih na šabatni dan, potem bom zanetil ogenj v njegovih velikih vratih in ta bo požrl jeruzalemske palače in ne bo pogašen.‹«
But if you do not listen to Me to keep the Sabbath day holy by not carrying a load while entering the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day, then I will kindle an unquenchable fire in its gates to consume the citadels of Jerusalem.’”
