< Jeremija 19 >

1 Tako govori Gospod: »Pojdi in dobi si lončarjev vrč in vzemi od starcev izmed ljudstva in od starcev izmed duhovnikov;
Thus saith YHWH, Go and get a potter's earthen bottle, and take of the ancients of the people, and of the ancients of the priests;
2 in pojdi naprej v dolino sina Hinómovega, ki je pri vhodu vzhodnih velikih vrat in tam razglasi besede, ki ti jih bom povedal
And go forth unto the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is by the entry of the east gate, and proclaim there the words that I shall tell thee,
3 in reci: ›Poslušajte besedo od Gospoda, oh Judovi kralji in prebivalci Jeruzalema: ›Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Glejte, privedel bom zlo nad ta kraj, kdorkoli bo slišal o njem, mu bo v ušesih zvenelo.
And say, Hear ye the word of YHWH, O kings of Judah, and inhabitants of Jerusalem; Thus saith YHWH of hosts, the Elohim of Israel; Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, the which whosoever heareth, his ears shall tingle.
4 Ker so me zapustili in odtujili ta kraj in na njem zažigali kadilo drugim bogovom, ki jih niti oni niti njihovi očetje niti Judovi kralji niso poznali in so ta kraj napolnili s krvjo nedolžnih;
Because they have forsaken me, and have estranged this place, and have burned incense in it unto other elohim, whom neither they nor their fathers have known, nor the kings of Judah, and have filled this place with the blood of innocents;
5 zgradili so tudi Báalove visoke kraje, da svoje sinove sežigajo z ognjem za žgalne daritve Báalu, kar jim nisem zapovedal niti tega nisem govoril niti mi to ni prišlo na um.
They have built also the high places of Baal, to burn their sons with fire for burnt offerings unto Baal, which I commanded not, nor spake it, neither came it into my mind:
6 Zato, glejte, pridejo dnevi, ‹ govori Gospod, ›ko ta kraj ne bo več imenovan Tofet niti Dolina sina Hinómovega, temveč Dolina pokola.
Therefore, behold, the days come, saith YHWH, that this place shall no more be called Tophet, nor The valley of the son of Hinnom, but The valley of slaughter.
7 Nasvet Juda in Jeruzalema bom na tem kraju naredil prazen in povzročil jim bom, da padejo pod mečem pred svojimi sovražniki in po rokah tistih, ki jim strežejo po življenju. Njihova trupla bom izročil, da bodo hrana perjadi neba in zemeljskim zverem.
And I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hands of them that seek their lives: and their carcases will I give to be meat for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth.
8 To mesto bom naredil zapuščeno in sikanje. Vsak, kdor bo šel mimo, bo osupel in sikal zaradi vseh njegovih nadlog.
And I will make this city desolate, and an hissing; every one that passeth thereby shall be astonished and hiss because of all the plagues thereof.
9 Povzročil jim bom, da jedo meso svojih sinov in meso svojih hčera in vsak bo jedel meso svojega prijatelja, v obleganju in strogosti, s katero jih bodo stisnili njihovi sovražniki in tisti, ki jim strežejo po življenju.
And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and they shall eat every one the flesh of his friend in the siege and straitness, wherewith their enemies, and they that seek their lives, shall straiten them
10 Potem boš razbil vrč pred očmi mož, ki gredo s teboj
Then shalt thou break the bottle in the sight of the men that go with thee,
11 in jim boš rekel: ›Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki: ›Celo tako bom zlomil to ljudstvo in to mesto, kakor nekdo razbija lončarjevo posodo, da ne more biti narejena ponovno cela. Pokopavali jih bodo v Tofetu, dokler ne bo nobenega prostora za pokop.
And shalt say unto them, Thus saith YHWH of hosts; Even so will I break this people and this city, as one breaketh a potter's vessel, that cannot be made whole again: and they shall bury them in Tophet, till there be no place to bury.
12 Tako bom storil temu kraju, ‹ govori Gospod ›in njegovim prebivalcem in to mesto bom naredil celó kot Tofet.
Thus will I do unto this place, saith YHWH, and to the inhabitants thereof, and even make this city as Tophet:
13 Hiše Jeruzalema in hiše Judovih kraljev bodo omadeževane kakor kraj Tofet, zaradi vseh hiš, na čigar strehah so zažigali kadilo vsej vojski neba in izlivali pitne daritve drugim bogovom.‹«
And the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of Judah, shall be defiled as the place of Tophet, because of all the houses upon whose roofs they have burned incense unto all the host of heaven, and have poured out drink offerings unto other elohim.
14 Potem je iz Tofeta prišel Jeremija, kamor ga je poslal Gospod, da prerokuje. Stopil je na dvor Gospodove hiše in vsemu ljudstvu rekel:
Then came Jeremiah from Tophet, whither YHWH had sent him to prophesy; and he stood in the court of YHWH 's house; and said to all the people,
15 »Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Glejte, nad to mesto in nad vse njegove kraje bom privedel vse zlo, ki sem ga proglasil zoper njega, ker so otrdili svoje vratove, da ne bi slišali mojih besed.«
Thus saith YHWH of hosts, the Elohim of Israel; Behold, I will bring upon this city and upon all her towns all the evil that I have pronounced against it, because they have hardened their necks, that they might not hear my words.
