Jeremias 41
1 The word that came to Jeremias from the Lord (now Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, and all his army, and all the country of his dominion, were warring against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Juda, ) saying,
Pripetilo se je torej v sedmem mesecu, da je Netanjájev sin Jišmaél, sin Elišamá, iz kraljevega semena in kraljevi princi, celo deset mož z njim, prišlo k Ahikámovemu sinu Gedaljáju v Micpo; in tam so skupaj jedli kruh v Micpi.
2 Thus has the Lord said; Go to Sedekias king of Juda, and you shall say to him, Thus has the Lord said, This city shall certainly be delivered into the hands of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it, and shall burn it with fire:
Potem se je dvignil Netanjájev sin Jišmaél in deset mož, ki so bili z njim in z mečem udarili Gedaljája, sina Ahikáma, sina Šafána in ga usmrtili, ki ga je babilonski kralj naredil voditelja nad deželo.
3 and you shall not escape out of his hand, but shall certainly be taken, and shall be given into his hands; and your eyes shall see his eyes, and you shall enter into Babylon.
Jišmaél je usmrtil tudi vse Jude, ki so bili z njim, torej z Gedaljájem pri Micpi in Kaldejce, ki so bili najdeni tam in bojevnike.
4 But hear the word of the Lord, O Sedekias king of Juda; Thus says the Lord,
Drugega dne se je pripetilo, potem ko je umoril Gedaljája in noben človek tega ni vedel,
5 You shall die in peace: and as they wept for your fathers that reigned before you, they shall weep also for you, [saying], Ah lord! and they shall lament for you down to the grave: for I have spoken the word, said the Lord.
da so tja prišli nekateri iz Sihema, iz Šila in iz Samarije, celó osemdeset mož, ki so imeli svoje brade obrite, svoja oblačila pretrgana in razpraskani, z daritvami in kadilom v svoji roki, da jih prinesejo h Gospodovi hiši.
6 And Jeremias spoke to king Sedekias all these words in Jerusalem.
Netanjájev sin Jišmaél je odšel naprej iz Micpe, da jih sreča, jokajoč vso pot, medtem ko je šel. Pripetilo se je, ko jih je srečal, da jim je rekel: »Pridite k Ahikámovemu sinu Gedaljáju.
7 And the host of the king of Babylon warred against Jerusalem, and against the cities of Juda, and against Lachis, and against Azeca: for these strong cities were left amongst the cities of Juda.
Bilo je tako, da ko so prišli v sredo mesta, da jih je Netanjájev sin Jišmaél usmrtil in jih vrgel v sredo jame, on in možje, ki so bili z njim.
8 The word that came from the Lord to Jeremias, after king Sedekias had concluded a covenant with the people, to proclaim a release;
Toda med njimi je bilo najdenih deset mož, ki so Jišmaélu rekli: »Ne ubij nas, kajti zaklade imamo na polju, od pšenice, od ječmena, od olja in od medu.« Tako je potrpel in jih ni ubil med njihovimi brati.
9 That every one should set at liberty his servant, and every one has handmaid, the Hebrew man and Hebrew woman, that no man of Juda should be a bondman.
Torej jama, kamor je Jišmaél vrgel vsa trupla mož, ki jih je umoril zaradi Gedaljája, je bila tista, ki jo je kralj Asá naredil zaradi strahu pred Bašájem, Izraelovim kraljem, in Netanjájev sin Jišmaél jo je napolnil s tistimi, ki so bili umorjeni.
10 Then all the nobles, and all the people who had entered into the covenant, [engaging] to set free every one his man-servant, and every one his maid, turned,
Potem je Jišmaél odvedel proč ujetništvo, ves preostanek ljudstva, ki so bili v Micpi, celó kraljeve hčere in vse ljudstvo, ki je ostalo v Micpi, ki jih je Nebuzaradán, poveljnik straže, predal Ahikámovemu sinu Gedaljáju in Netanjájev sin Jišmaél jih je ujete odvedel in odšel, da bi prešel k Amóncem.
11 and gave them over to be menservants and maidservants.
Toda ko so Karéahov sin Johanán in vsi poveljniki sil, ki so bili z njim, slišali o vsem zlu, ki ga je storil Netanjájev sin Jišmaél,
12 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, saying,
so potem vzeli vse može in odšli, da se bojujejo z Netanjájevim sinom Jišmaélom in ga našli pri velikih vodah, ki so v Gibeónu.
13 Thus says the Lord; I made a covenant with your fathers in the day wherein I took them out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying,
Pripetilo se je torej, da ko je vse ljudstvo, ki je bilo z Jišmaélom, videlo Karéahovega sina Johanána in vse poveljnike sil, ki so bili z njim, da so bili potem veseli.
14 When six years are accomplished, you shall set free your brother the Hebrew, who shall be sold to you: for he shall serve you six years, and [then] you shall let him go free: but they listened not to me, and inclined not their ear.
Tako se je vse ljudstvo, ki ga je Jišmaél odvedel proč ujete iz Micpe, obrnilo okrog in se vrnilo in šlo h Karéahovemu sinu Johanánu.
15 And this day they turned to do that which was right in my sight, to proclaim every one the release of his neighbour; and they had concluded a covenant before me, in the house whereon my name is called.
Toda Netanjájev sin Jišmaél je od Johanána pobegnil z osmimi možmi in odšel k Amóncem.
16 But you turned and profaned my name, to bring back every one his servant, and every one his handmaid, whom you had sent forth free [and] at their own disposal, to be to you menservants and maidservants.
Potem so Karéahov sin Johanán in vsi poveljniki sil, ki so bili z njim, vzeli ves preostanek ljudstva, ki jih je povrnil od Netanjájevega sina Jišmaéla iz Micpe, potem, ko je umoril Ahikámovega sina Gedaljája, celó mogočne bojevnike, ženske, otroke in evnuhe, ki jih je ponovno privedel iz Gibeóna.
17 Therefore thus said the Lord; You have not listened to me, to proclaim a release every one to his neighbour: behold, I proclaim a release to you, to the sword, and to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will give you up to dispersion [amongst] all the kingdoms of the earth.
Odrinili so in prebivali v prebivališču Kimhám, ki je pri Betlehemu, da gredo, da vstopijo v Egipt
18 And I will give the men that have transgressed my covenant, who have not kept my covenant, which they made before me, the calf which they prepared to sacrifice with it,
zaradi Kaldejcev, kajti bali so se jih, ker je Netanjájev sin Jišmaél umoril Ahikámovega sina Gedaljája, ki ga je babilonski kralj postavil za voditelja v deželi.
19 the princes of Juda, and the men in power, and the priests, and the people;
20 I will even give them to their enemies, and their carcases shall be food for the birds of the sky and for the wild beasts of the earth.
21 And I will give Sedekias king of Judea, and their princes, into the hands of their enemies, and the host of the king of Babylon [shall come upon] them that run away from them.
22 Behold, I [will] give command, says the Lord, and will bring them back to this land; and they shall fight against it, and take it, and burn it with fire, and the cities of Juda; and I will make them desolate without inhabitants.
