Jeremija 28
1 Pripetilo se je isto leto, v začetku kraljevanja Judovega kralja Sedekíja, v četrtem letu in v petem mesecu, da mi je spregovoril Hananjá, sin preroka Azúrja, ki je bil iz Gibeóna, v Gospodovi hiši, v prisotnosti duhovnikov in vsega ljudstva, rekoč:
When Zedekiah had been the King of Judah for more than three years, late in the (summer/hot season), Azzur’s son Hananiah, a prophet from Gibeon [city], spoke to me in the [courtyard of the] temple, while [all] the priests and other people were listening. He said,
2 »Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog, rekoč: ›Zlomil sem jarem babilonskega kralja.
“This is what the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom [we] Israelis [worship], says: ‘I will cause the king of Babylon to stop ruling/controlling [MET] [all of you].
3 V dveh letih bom ponovno na ta kraj privedel vse posode Gospodove hiše, ki jih je babilonski kralj Nebukadnezar vzel iz tega kraja in jih odnesel v Babilon.
(Within two years/Before two years have ended), I will cause to be brought bring back to this temple all the valuable things that King Nebuchadnezzar’s [soldiers] took from this temple and took to Babylon.
4 Ponovno bom na ta kraj privedel Jehoníja, sina Jojakíma, Judovega kralja, z vsemi Judovimi ujetniki, ki so šli v Babilon, ‹ govori Gospod, ›kajti jaz bom zlomil jarem babilonskega kralja.‹«
And I will also cause King Jehoiachin to be brought back here, and all the [other] people who were captured and taken to Babylon. The king of Babylon has [forced you to do what he wants, like someone] puts a yoke [on the neck of an ox to force it to do what he] wants [MET] it to do. But I will cause that to end. [That will happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.’”
5 Potem je prerok Jeremija rekel preroku Hananjáju, v prisotnosti duhovnikov in v prisotnosti vsega ljudstva, ki je stalo v Gospodovi hiši,
I replied to Hananiah in front of [all] the priests and other people who were standing outside the temple.
6 celo prerok Jeremija je rekel: »Amen. Gospod naj tako stori. Gospod naj izpolni tvoje besede, ki si jih prerokoval, da ponovno privede posode Gospodove hiše in vse, kar je odvedeno ujeto, iz Babilona na ta kraj.
I said, “(Amen/May that happen)! I desire/hope that what you have predicted will happen. I hope/desire that Yahweh will do everything that you have said! I hope/desire that he will cause [men from Babylon] to bring back from Babylon [all] the valuable things that were in this temple, and all the people who were taken [to Babylon].
7 Kljub temu poslušaj sedaj te besede, ki jih govorim v tvoja ušesa in v ušesa vsega ljudstva.
But now listen to what I say to you while all these people are listening.
8 Preroki, ki so bili pred menoj in pred teboj od davnine, so prerokovali tako zoper mnoge dežele kakor zoper velika kraljestva, o vojni in o zlu in o kužni bolezni.
Many years ago, those who were prophets before you and I [became prophets] spoke messages about many nations and great kingdoms. They predicted/prophesied that wars and disasters and plagues/diseases would occur in those nations.
9 Prerok, ki prerokuje o miru, ko se bo zgodila prerokova beseda, potem bo prerok znan, da ga je resnično poslal Gospod.«
[So now you or] any other prophet who predicts that things will go well [for us must show that your message is correct. Only] if what you predict actually happens will we know that you were truly appointed by Yahweh.”
10 Potem je prerok Hananjá snel jarem iz vratu preroka Jeremija in ga zlomil.
Then Hananiah took the yoke off my neck and broke it.
11 Hananjá je spregovoril v prisotnosti vsega ljudstva, rekoč: »Tako govori Gospod: ›Celo tako bom zlomil jarem babilonskega kralja Nebukadnezarja iz vratu vseh narodov, v času dveh polnih let.‹« In prerok Jeremija je odšel svojo pot.
Then he said this to all the people who were there: “This is what Yahweh says: ‘Just like Hananiah has broken this yoke, within two years I will cause King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon to [stop forcing the people to do what he wants, which has been like] a heavy yoke on all their necks [MET].’” After Hananiah said that, I left the temple area.
12 Potem je Gospodova beseda prišla preroku Jeremiju, potem ko je prerok Hananjá zlomil jarem iz vratu preroka Jeremija, rekoč:
[Soon] after Hananiah had broken the yoke that was around my neck, Yahweh gave this message to me:
13 »Pojdi in povej Hananjáju, rekoč: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Zlomil si lesene jarme, toda zanje boš naredil železne jarme.‹
“Go and say this to Hananiah: ‘Yahweh says that you have broken a wooden yoke, but that he will replace it with an iron yoke.
14 Kajti tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Železen jarem sem položil na vrat vseh teh narodov, da bodo lahko služili babilonskemu kralju Nebukadnezarju; in služili mu bodo in dal sem mu tudi poljske živali.‹«
I have forced the people of all these nations to [become slaves of] King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. That is [like] [MET] an iron yoke around their necks. I have put everything, even wild animals, under his control.’”
15 Potem je prerok Jeremija rekel preroku Hananjáju: »Prisluhni sedaj Hananjá: › Gospod te ni poslal, temveč ti zavajaš to ljudstvo, da zaupa v laž.‹
Then I [went to] Hananiah and said to him, “Hananiah, listen [to this]: Yahweh has not appointed you; instead, [you have told] lies to the people, and they have believed your lies.
16 Zato tako govori Gospod: ›Glej, vrgel te bom iz obličja zemlje. To leto boš umrl, ker si učil upor zoper Gospoda.‹«
Therefore, this is what Yahweh says: ‘You will [soon] die. Before the end of this year, you will die, because you have rebelled against Yahweh.’”
17 Tako je prerok Hananjá to isto leto umrl, v sedmem mesecu.
Hananiah died two months later.
