< Jeremiah 36 >

1 And it happened in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, the king of Judah: it happened that this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying:
Pripetilo se je v četrtem letu Jojakíma, Jošíjevega sina, Judovega kralja, da je ta beseda prišla Jeremiju od Gospoda, rekoč:
2 “Take the volume of a book, and you shall write in it all the words that I have spoken to you against Israel and Judah, and against all the nations, from the day when I first spoke to you, from the days of Josiah, even to this day.
»Vzemi zvitek knjige in zapiši vanjo vse besede, ki sem ti jih govoril zoper Izrael in zoper Juda in zoper vse narode, od dneva, ko sem ti spregovoril, od Jošíjevih dni, celo do tega dne.
3 Perhaps it may be that the house of Judah, upon hearing all the evils that I have decided to do to them, may return, each one from his wicked way, and then I will forgive their iniquity and their sin.”
Morda bo Judova hiša prisluhnila vsemu zlu, ki jim ga nameravam storiti, da se bodo lahko vrnili vsak človek iz svoje zle poti, da bi lahko odpustil njihovo krivičnost in njihov greh.«
4 Therefore, Jeremiah called Baruch, the son of Neriah, and Baruch wrote, from the mouth of Jeremiah, all the words of the Lord, which he had spoken to him, in the volume of a book.
Potem je Jeremija poklical Nerijájevega sina Baruha in Baruh je iz Jeremijevih ust zapisal vse besede od Gospoda, ki mu jih je povedal, v zvitek knjige.
5 And Jeremiah instructed Baruch, saying: “I am confined, and so I am unable to enter into the house of the Lord.
Jeremija je zapovedal Baruhu, rekoč: »Jaz sem zaprt; ne morem iti v Gospodovo hišo.
6 Therefore, you shall enter and read from the volume, in which you have written from my mouth the words of the Lord, in the hearing of the people in the house of the Lord on the day of the fast. Moreover, you shall also read them in the hearing of all those of Judah who are arriving from their cities.
Zato pojdi ti in beri iz zvitka, ki si ga zapisal iz mojih ust, besede od Gospoda v ušesa ljudstva, v Gospodovi hiši, na dan posta, in bral jih boš tudi v ušesa vsega Juda, ki pride iz njihovih mest.
7 Perhaps it may happen that they pray in the sight of the Lord, and each one may return from his wicked way. For great is the fury and indignation that the Lord has declared against this people.”
Morda bodo predstavili svojo ponižno prošnjo pred Gospodom in se bodo vrnili vsak iz svoje zle poti, kajti velika je jeza in razjarjenost, ki jo je Gospod proglasil zoper to ljudstvo.«
8 And Baruch, the son of Neriah, acted in accord with all that Jeremiah, the prophet, had instructed him, reading from the volume the words of the Lord, in the house of the Lord.
Nerijájev sin Baruh je storil glede na vse, kar mu je prerok Jeremija zapovedal, ko je iz knjige bral besede od Gospoda v Gospodovi hiši.
9 And it happened that, in the fifth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, the king of Judah, in the ninth month, they proclaimed a fast, in the sight of the Lord, to all the people in Jerusalem, and to the entire multitude which had flowed together, from the cities of Judah, into Jerusalem.
Pripetilo se je v petem letu Jojakíma, Jošíjevega sina, Judovega kralja, v devetem mesecu, da so razglasili post pred Gospodom vsemu ljudstvu v Jeruzalemu in vsemu ljudstvu, ki je iz Judovih mest prišlo v Jeruzalem.
10 And Baruch read from the volume the words of Jeremiah in the house of the Lord, at the treasury of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, the scribe, in the upper vestibule, at the entrance to the new gate of the house of the Lord, in the hearing of all the people.
Potem je Baruh v knjigi bral Jeremijeve besede v Gospodovi hiši, v sobi Gemarjája, Šafánovega sina, pisarja, na višjem dvoru, ob vhodu novih velikih vrat Gospodove hiše, v ušesa vsega ljudstva.
11 And when Micaiah, the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard all the words of the Lord from the book,
Ko je Mihajá, sin Gemarjája, sin Šafána, iz knjige slišal vse Gospodove besede,
12 he descended to the house of the king, to the treasury of the scribe. And behold, all the leaders were sitting there: Elishama, the scribe, and Delaiah, the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan, the son of Achbor, and Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah, the son of Hananiah, and all the leaders.
je potem odšel dol v kraljevo hišo, v pisarjevo sobo. Glej, vsi princi so sedeli tam, celó pisar Elišamá in Šemajájev sin Delajája in Ahbórjev sin Elnatána, Šafánov sin Gemarjá in Hananjájev sin Sedekíja in vsi princi.
13 And Micaiah announced to them all the words that he had heard when Baruch read from the volume to the ears of the people.
Potem jim je Mihajá naznanil vse besede, ki jih je slišal, ko je Baruh bral knjigo v ušesa ljudstva.
14 And so, all the leaders sent Jehudi, the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, “Take in your hand the volume, from which you have read in the hearing of the people, and come.” Therefore, Baruch, the son of Neriah, took the volume in his hand, and he went to them.
Zatorej so vsi princi k Baruhu poslali Jehudíja, sina Netanjája, sina Šelemjája, sina Kušíja, rekoč: »V svojo roko vzemi zvitek, ki si ga prebral v ušesa ljudstva in pridi.« Tako je Nerijájev sin Baruh vzel zvitek v svojo roko in prišel k njim.
15 And they said to him, “Sit and read these things in our hearing.” And Baruch read in their hearing.
Rekli so mu: »Usedi se sedaj in preberi to v naša ušesa.« Tako je Baruh to prebral v njihova ušesa.
16 Therefore, when they had heard all the words, each one looked at his neighbor in astonishment, and they said to Baruch: “We ought to report all these words to the king.”
Pripetilo se je torej, ko so slišali vse besede, da so bili prestrašeni, tako eni kakor drugi in rekli Baruhu: »Zagotovo bomo o vseh teh besedah povedali kralju.«
17 And they questioned him, saying, “Describe to us how you wrote all these words from his mouth.”
Baruha pa so vprašali, rekoč: »Sedaj nam povej: ›Kako si zapisal vse te besede pri njegovih ustih?‹«
18 Then Baruch said to them: “He was speaking with his mouth, as if reading to me. And I wrote in a volume with ink.”
Potem jim je Baruh odgovoril: »On mi je vse te besede proglasil s svojimi usti, jaz pa sem jih s črnilom zapisal v knjigo.«
19 And the leaders said to Baruch: “Go away and hide, you and Jeremiah, and let no one know where you are.”
Potem so princi rekli Baruhu: »Pojdi, skrij se, ti in Jeremija. Naj noben človek ne ve, kje sta.«
20 And they entered to the king, in the court. Furthermore, they stored the volume in the treasury of Elishama, the scribe. And they announced all the words in the hearing of the king.
Vstopili so h kralju na dvor, toda zvitek so položili v sobo pisarja Elišamá in vse besede povedali kralju v ušesa.
21 And the king sent Jehudi to take the volume. And bringing it from the treasury of Elishama, the scribe, he read it in the hearing of the king and of all the leaders who were standing around the king.
Tako je kralj poslal Jehudíja, da prinese zvitek in ta ga je vzel iz sobe pisarja Elišamája. In Jehudí ga je prebral v ušesa kralja in v ušesa vseh princev, ki so stali poleg kralja.
22 Now the king was sitting in the winter house, in the ninth month. And there was a hearth placed before him, filled with burning coals.
Torej kralj je sedel v zimski hiši, v devetem mesecu in tam je bil ogenj, ki je pred njim gorel na ognjišču.
23 And when Jehudi had read three or four pages, he cut it with a small knife, and he threw it into the fire which was upon the hearth, until the entire volume was consumed by the fire which was upon the hearth.
Pripetilo se je, da ko je Jehudí prebral tri ali štiri stolpce, je on to odrezal z nožkom in to vrgel v ogenj, ki je bil na ognjišču, dokler ni bil ves zvitek použit v ognju, ki je bil na ognjišču.
24 And the king and all his servants, who had heard all these words, were not afraid, and they did not rend their garments.
Vendar niso bili prestrašeni, niti pretrgali svojih oblek niti kralj, niti katerikoli izmed njegovih služabnikov, ki so slišali vse te besede.
25 Yet truly, Elnathan, and Delaiah, and Gemariah contradicted the king, so that he might not burn the book. But he did not listen to them.
Kljub temu so Elnatán, Delajá in Gemarjá posredovali h kralju, da ne bi zažgal zvitka, toda ni jih hotel poslušati.
26 And the king instructed Jerahmeel, the son of Amelech, and Seraiah, the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah, the son of Abdeel, so that they would apprehend Baruch, the scribe, and Jeremiah, the prophet. But the Lord concealed them.
Toda kralj je zapovedal Jerahmeélu, sinu Hameleha in Serajáju, sinu Azriéla in Šelemjájevemu sinu Abdeélu, da primejo pisarja Baruha in preroka Jeremija, toda Gospod ju je skril.
27 And after the king had burned the volume and the words that Baruch had written from the mouth of Jeremiah, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah, the prophet, saying:
Potem je Jeremiju prišla beseda od Gospoda, potem ko je kralj sežgal zvitek in besede, ki jih je Baruh zapisal pri Jeremijevih ustih, rekoč:
28 “Again, take another volume and write in it all the former words, which were in the first volume that Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, has burned.
»Ponovno si vzemi drug zvitek in nanj zapiši vse prejšnje besede, ki so bile na prvem zvitku, ki ga je Judov kralj Jojakím sežgal.
29 And you shall say to Jehoiakim, the king of Judah: Thus says the Lord: You have burned that volume, saying: ‘Why have you written in it, announcing that the king of Babylon will advance quickly, and will devastate this land, and will cause both man and beast to cease from it?’
Judovemu kralju Jojakímu pa boš rekel: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Ti si sežgal ta zvitek, rekoč: ›Zakaj si pisal tja noter, rekoč: ›Babilonski kralj bo zagotovo prišel in uničil to deželo in bo povzročil, da sta od tam odvzeta človek in žival?‹‹
30 Because of this, thus says the Lord against Jehoiakim, the king of Judah: There will be, from him, no one who may sit upon the throne of David. And his dead body shall be cast out: to the heat by day, and to the frost by night.
Zato tako govori Gospod o Judovem kralju Jojakímu: ›Nikogar ne bo imel, da sedi na Davidovem prestolu, in njegovo truplo bo vrženo ven, podnevi v vročino in ponoči v zmrzal.
31 And I will visit against him, and against his offspring, and against his servants for their iniquities. And I will lead over them, and over the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and over the men of Judah, all the evil that I have declared against them, for they have not listened.”
Kaznoval ga bom, njegovo seme in njegove služabnike zaradi njihove krivičnosti in jaz bom privedel nadnje, nad prebivalce Jeruzalema in nad Judove može, vse zlo, ki sem ga proglasil zoper njih; toda niso mi prisluhnili.‹«
32 Then Jeremiah took up another volume, and he gave it to Baruch, the son of Neriah, the scribe, who wrote in it, from the mouth of Jeremiah, all the words of the book that Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, had burned with fire. And moreover, there were many more words added than there had been before.
Potem je Jeremija vzel drug zvitek in ga izročil pisarju Baruhu, Nerijájevemu sinu, ki je iz Jeremijevih ust nanj zapisal vse besede iz knjige, ki jo je Judov kralj Jojakím sežgal v ognju. Poleg teh so jim bile dodane mnoge druge podobne besede.
