Jeremija 31
1 »›Isti čas, ‹ govori Gospod, ›bom jaz Bog vsem Izraelovim družinam in oni bodo moje ljudstvo.‹
At the same time, saith the LORD, I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be my people.
2 Tako govori Gospod: ›Ljudstvo, ki je preostalo od meča, je našlo milost v divjini; celó Izrael, ko sem odšel, da mu povzročim, da počiva.‹«
Thus saith the LORD, The people who were left by the sword found grace in the wilderness; even Israel, when I went to cause him to rest.
3 Gospod se mi je prikazal od davnine, rekoč: »Da, ljubil sem te z večno ljubeznijo, zato sem te pritegnil z ljubečo skrbnostjo.
The LORD appeared of old to me, saying, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.
4 Ponovno te bom zgradil in boš zgrajena, oh devica Izraelova. Ponovno boš okrašena s svojimi bobniči in šla naprej na plese tistih, ki se veselijo.
Again I will build thee, and thou shalt be built, O virgin of Israel: thou shalt again be adorned with thy tabrets, and shalt go forth in the dances of them that make merry.
5 Še boš sadila trte na gorah Samarije. Sadilci bodo sadili in jih bodo jedli kakor običajne stvari.
Thou shalt yet plant vines upon the mountains of Samaria: the planters shall plant, and shall eat them as common things.
6 Kajti dan bo, da bodo stražarji na gori Efrájim klicali: ›Vstanite in pojdimo gor na Sion h Gospodu, svojemu Bogu.‹
For there shall be a day, that the watchmen upon the mount Ephraim shall cry, Arise ye, and let us go up to Zion to the LORD our God.
7 Kajti tako govori Gospod: ›Prepevajte z veseljem zaradi Jakoba in vzklikajte med vodjem narodov. Razglašajte, hvalite in recite: ›Oh Gospod, reši svoje ljudstvo, Izraelov ostanek.‹
For thus saith the LORD; Sing with gladness for Jacob, and shout among the chief of the nations: proclaim ye, praise ye, and say, O LORD, save thy people, the remnant of Israel.
8 Glej, privedel jih bom iz severne dežele in jih skupaj zbral iz obal zemlje in z njimi slepe ter hrome, skupaj nosečnico in tisto, ki je v porodnih mukah skupaj z otrokom, velika skupina se bo vrnila tja.
Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the ends of the earth, and with them the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her that travaileth with child together: a great company shall return there.
9 Prišli bodo z jokanjem in s ponižnimi prošnjami jih bom vodil. Povzročil jim bom, da hodijo po ravni poti ob rekah vodá, na kateri se ne bodo spotaknili, kajti jaz sem oče Izraelu in Efrájim je moj prvorojenec.‹
They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters in a straight way, in which they shall not stumble: for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn.
10 Poslušajte Gospodovo besedo: ›Oh vi narodi‹ in razglasite jo na oddaljenih otokih ter recite: ›Kdor je razkropil Izraela, ga bo zbral in ga varoval, kakor pastir stori svojemu tropu.‹
Hear the word of the LORD, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, He that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.
11 Kajti Gospod je odkupil Jakoba in ga izpustil proti odkupnini iz roke tistega, ki je bil močnejši od njega.
For the LORD hath redeemed Jacob, and ransomed him from the hand of him that was stronger than he.
12 Zato bodo prišli in prepevali na višini Siona in skupaj bodo tekli h Gospodovi dobroti zaradi pšenice, zaradi vina, zaradi olja in zaradi mladičev izmed tropa in od črede. Njihova duša bo kakor namakan vrt in sploh ne bodo več žalovali.
Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow together to the goodness of the LORD, for grain, and for wine, and for oil, and for the young of the flock and of the herd: and their soul shall be as a watered garden; and they shall not sorrow any more at all.
13 Potem se bo devica veselila na plesu, tako mladeniči in stari skupaj, kajti njihovo žalovanje bom obrnil v radost in jaz jih bom potolažil in jim dal, da se veselijo od njihove bridkosti.
Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, both young men and old together: for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.
14 Dušo duhovnikov bom nasitil z obiljem in moje ljudstvo bo nasičeno z mojo dobroto, ‹ govori Gospod.
And I will abundantly satisfy the soul of the priests with fatness, and my people shall be satisfied with my goodness, saith the LORD.
15 Tako govori Gospod: ›Glas je bil slišan v Rami, žalovanje in grenko jokanje. Rahela, jokajoč za svojimi otroki, je odklanjala biti potolažena zaradi svojih otrok, ker jih ni bilo.‹
Thus saith the LORD; A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, and bitter weeping; Rachel weeping for her children refused to be comforted for her children, because they were not.
16 Tako govori Gospod: ›Svoj glas zadrži pred jokanjem in svoje oči pred solzami, kajti tvoje delo bo nagrajeno, ‹ govori Gospod ›in ponovno bodo prišli iz sovražnikove dežele.
Thus saith the LORD; Restrain thy voice from weeping, and thy eyes from tears: for thy work shall be rewarded, saith the LORD; and they shall come again from the land of the enemy.
17 Upanje je v tvojem koncu, ‹ govori Gospod, ›da bodo tvoji otroci ponovno prišli k svoji lastni meji.
And there is hope in thy end, saith the LORD, that thy children shall come again to their own border.
18 Zagotovo sem slišal Efrájima tako žalovati: ›Kaznoval si me in bil sem kaznovan, kakor bikec nenavajen jarma. Obrni me in bom obrnjen, kajti ti si Gospod, moj Bog.
I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself thus; Thou hast chastised me, and I was chastised, as a bull unaccustomed to the yoke: turn thou me, and I shall be turned; for thou art the LORD my God.
19 Zagotovo sem se pokesal, potem ko sem bil obrnjen; in potem ko sem bil poučen, sem udaril na svoje stegno. Osramočen sem bil, da, celo zbegan, ker sem nosil grajo svoje mladosti.‹
Surely after I was turned, I repented; and after I was instructed, I smote upon my thigh: I was ashamed, and even confounded, because I bore the reproach of my youth.
20 Ali je Efrájim moj dragi sin? Je on prijeten otrok? Kajti odkar sem govoril zoper njega, se ga še vedno iskreno spominjam, zato je moja notranjost zaskrbljena zanj; zagotovo se ga bom usmilil, ‹ govori Gospod.
Is Ephraim my dear son? is he a pleasant child? for since I spoke against him, I do earnestly remember him still: therefore my heart is troubled for him; I will surely have mercy upon him, saith the LORD.
21 Postavi kažipote, naredi si visoke kupe. Svoje srce naravnaj proti glavni cesti, poti, po kateri si hodila. Ponovno se obrni, oh devica Izraelova, ponovno se obrni k tem svojim mestom.‹«
Set thee up waymarks, make thee high heaps: set thy heart toward the highway, even the way which thou wentest: turn again, O virgin of Israel, turn again to these thy cities.
22 Doklej boš hodila okoli, oh ti odpadla hči? Kajti Gospod je ustvaril novo stvar na zemlji: »Ženska bo obdajala moškega.«
How long wilt thou wander about, O thou backsliding daughter? for the LORD hath created a new thing in the earth, A woman shall encompass a man.
23 Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: »›Še bodo uporabljali ta govor v Judovi deželi in njenih mestih, ko bom ponovno privedel njihovo ujetništvo; ‹ Gospod [naj] te blagoslovi, oh prebivališče pravice in gora svetosti.
Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; As yet they shall use this speech in the land of Judah and in its cities, when I shall bring again their captives; The LORD bless thee, O habitation of justice, mountain of holiness.
24 In tam bodo skupaj prebivali v samem Judu in v vseh njihovih mestih, poljedelci in tisti, ki gredo naprej s tropi.
And there shall dwell in Judah itself, and in all its cities together, farmers, and they that go forth with flocks.
25 Kajti nasitil sem izmučeno dušo in na novo napolnil vsako žalostno dušo.‹«
For I have abundantly satisfied the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul.
26 Ob tem sem se prebudil in pogledal, in spanje mi je bilo sladko.
Upon this I awoke, and beheld; and my sleep was sweet to me.
27 »›Glej, prihajajo dnevi, ‹ govori Gospod, ›da bom Izraelovo hišo in Judovo hišo posejal s človeškim semenom in s semenom živali.
Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man, and with the seed of beast.
28 In zgodilo se bo, da kakor sem stražil nad njimi, da izrujem, da zlomim, da zrušim, da uničim in da prizadenem, tako bom stražil nad njimi, da gradim in da sadim, ‹ govori Gospod.
And it shall come to pass, that as I have watched over them, to pluck up, and to break down, and to throw down, and to destroy, and to afflict; so will I watch over them, to build, and to plant, saith the LORD.
29 V tistih dneh ne bodo več rekli: ›Očetje so jedli kisel grozd, zobje otrok pa so skominasti.‹
In those days they shall say no more, The fathers have eaten a sour grape, and the children’s teeth are set on edge.
30 Temveč bo vsak umrl zaradi svoje lastne krivičnosti. Vsak človek, ki jé kisel grozd, bodo njegovi zobje skominasti.
But every one shall die for his own iniquity: every man that eateth the sour grape, his teeth shall be set on edge.
31 Glej, prihajajo dnevi, ‹ govori Gospod, ›da bom sklenil novo zavezo z Izraelovo hišo in z Judovo hišo.
Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
32 Ne glede na zavezo, ki sem jo sklenil z njihovimi očeti na dan, ko sem jih prijel za roko, da jih privedem ven iz egiptovske dežele. Tisto mojo zavezo so prelomili, čeprav sem jim bil soprog, ‹ govori Gospod.
Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they broke, although I was an husband to them, saith the LORD:
33 Toda to bo zaveza, ki jo bom sklenil z Izraelovo hišo: ›Po tistih dneh, ‹ govori Gospod, ›bom svojo postavo položil v njihove notranje dele in jo zapisal v njihova srca in bom njihov Bog in oni bodo moje ljudstvo.‹
But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
34 Ne bodo več učili vsak svojega soseda in vsak svojega brata, rekoč: ›Spoznajte Gospoda, ‹ kajti vsi me bodo poznali, od najmanjšega izmed njih, do največjega izmed njih, ‹ govori Gospod, ›kajti odpustil bom njihovo krivičnost in njihovega greha se ne bom več spominjal.‹
And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
35 Tako govori Gospod, ki daje sonce za svetlobo podnevi in odredbe o luni in zvezdah za svetlobo ponoči, ki razdeljuje morje, ko njegovi valovi rjovijo; Gospod nad bojevniki je njegovo ime.
Thus saith the LORD, who giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, who divideth the sea when its waves roar; The LORD of hosts is his name:
36 ›Če te odredbe odidejo izpred mene, ‹ govori Gospod, › potem bo tudi Izraelovo seme prenehalo biti narod pred menoj na veke.‹
If those ordinances depart from before me, saith the LORD, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever.
37 Tako govori Gospod: ›Če se lahko izmeri nebo zgoraj in se raziščejo temelji zemlje spodaj, bom prav tako zavrgel Izraelovo seme zaradi vsega tega, kar so storili, ‹ govori Gospod.
Thus saith the LORD; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith the LORD.
38 ›Glej, prihajajo dnevi, ‹ govori Gospod, ›da bo mesto zgrajeno Gospodu, od Hananélovega stolpa do vogalnih velikih vrat.
Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that the city shall be built to the LORD from the tower of Hananeel to the gate of the corner.
39 Merilna vrvica bo šla še naprej, vodila bo na hrib Garéb in ga obkrožila do Goe.
And the measuring line shall yet go forth straight forward over the hill Gareb, and shall turn toward Goath.
40 In celotna dolina trupel in pepela in vsa polja do potoka Kidrona, do vogala konjskih velikih vrat proti vzhodu, bodo sveta Gospodu; ta ne bo več izruvana niti razrušena na veke.‹«
And the whole valley of the dead bodies, and of the ashes, and all the fields to the brook of Kidron, to the corner of the horse gate toward the east, shall be holy to the LORD; it shall not be plucked up, nor thrown down any more for ever.
