Jeremija 39
1 V devetem letu Judovega kralja Sedekíja, v desetem mesecu, je prišel babilonski kralj Nebukadnezar in vsa njegova vojska, zoper Jeruzalem in ga oblegal.
In the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and all his army came against Jerusalem, and besieged it.
2 In v enajstem letu Sedekíja, v četrtem mesecu, devetega dne meseca, je bilo mesto predrto.
In the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, a breach was made in the city.
3 Vsi princi babilonskega kralja so vstopili in sedli v srednja velika vrata, celó Nergál Sarécer, Samgár Nebú, Sar Sehím, Rab-saris, Nergál Sarécer, Rab–mag, z vsem preostankom princev babilonskega kralja.
All the princes of the king of Babylon came in, and sat in the middle gate: Nergal Sharezer, Samgarnebo, Sarsechim the Rabsaris, Nergal Sharezer the Rabmag, with all the rest of the princes of the king of Babylon.
4 Pripetilo se je, da ko so jih Judov kralj Sedekíja in vsi bojevniki zagledali, potem so zbežali in odšli naprej iz mesta ponoči po poti kraljevega vrta, ob velikih vratih med obema zidovoma, in odšel je ven po poti ravnine.
When Zedekiah the king of Judah and all the men of war saw them, then they fled and went out of the city by night, by the way of the king’s garden, through the gate between the two walls; and he went out toward the Arabah.
5 Toda kaldejska vojska jih je zasledovala in Sedekíja dohitela na ravninah Jerihe. Ko so ga prijeli, so ga privedli gor k babilonskemu kralju Nebukadnezarju v Riblo, v Hamátovo deželo, kjer je ta podal razsodbo nad njim.
But the army of the Chaldeans pursued them, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho. When they had taken him, they brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he pronounced judgment on him.
6 Potem je babilonski kralj usmrtil Sedekíjeve sinove v Ribli, pred njegovimi očmi. Prav tako je babilonski kraj usmrtil vse Judove plemiče.
Then the king of Babylon killed Zedekiah’s sons in Riblah before his eyes. The king of Babylon also killed all the nobles of Judah.
7 Poleg tega je iztaknil Sedekíjeve oči in ga zvezal z verigami, da ga odvede v Babilon.
Moreover he put out Zedekiah’s eyes and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon.
8 Kaldejci so požgali kraljevo hišo in hiše ljudi z ognjem in porušili zidove Jeruzalema.
The Chaldeans burned the king’s house and the people’s houses with fire and broke down the walls of Jerusalem.
9 Potem je Nebuzaradán, poveljnik straže odvedel ujetništvo v Babilon, preostanek ljudstva, ki je ostal v mestu in tiste, ki so pobegnili proč, ki so prebegnili k njemu, s preostankom ljudstva, ki je preostalo.
Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive into Babylon the rest of the people who remained in the city, the deserters also who fell away to him, and the rest of the people who remained.
10 Toda Nebuzaradán, poveljnik straže je pustil revne izmed ljudstva, ki niso imeli ničesar, v Judovi deželi in jim obenem dal vinograde in polja.
But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poor of the people, who had nothing, in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and fields at the same time.
11 Torej babilonski kralj Nebukadnezar je dal naročilo glede Jeremija Nebuzaradánu, poveljniku straže, rekoč:
Now Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon commanded Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard concerning Jeremiah, saying,
12 »Vzemi ga in dobro glej nanj in ne stori mu ničesar hudega, temveč mu stori celo tako, kakor ti bo rekel.«
“Take him and take care of him. Do him no harm; but do to him even as he tells you.”
13 Tako je poslal Nebuzaradána, poveljnika straže, Nebušazbána, Rab-sarisa, Nergál Sarécerja, Rab-maga in vse kralje babilonskih princev;
So Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, Nebushazban, Rabsaris, and Nergal Sharezer, Rabmag, and all the chief officers of the king of Babylon
14 celo oni so poslali in vzeli Jeremija z dvorišča ječe ter ga predali Gedaljáju, sinu Ahikáma, sinu Šafána, da bi ga odvedel domov. Tako je prebival med ljudstvom.
sent and took Jeremiah out of the court of the guard, and committed him to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, that he should bring him home. So he lived among the people.
15 Torej beseda od Gospoda je prišla Jeremiju, medtem ko je bil zaprt na dvorišču ječe, rekoč:
Now the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah while he was shut up in the court of the guard, saying,
16 »Pojdi in spregovori Etiopijcu Ebed Melehu, rekoč: ›Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Glej, svoje besede bom privedel nad to mesto v zlo in ne v dobro in le-te bodo na ta dan dovršene pred teboj.
“Go, and speak to Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, saying, ‘The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: “Behold, I will bring my words on this city for evil, and not for good; and they will be accomplished before you in that day.
17 Toda tebe bom na ta dan osvobodil, ‹ govori Gospod: ›in ne boš izročen v roko mož, ki se jih bojiš.
But I will deliver you in that day,” says the LORD; “and you will not be given into the hand of the men of whom you are afraid.
18 Kajti jaz te bom zagotovo osvobodil in ne boš padel pod mečem, temveč ti bo tvoje življenje za plen, ker si svoje zaupanje položil vame, ‹ govori Gospod.«
For I will surely save you. You will not fall by the sword, but you will escape with your life, because you have put your trust in me,” says the LORD.’”
