Jeremias 28

1 Kong Zedekias af Judas fjerde regeringsår i den femte måned sagde Profeten Hananja, Azzurs Søn, fra Gibeon til mig i HERRENs Hus i Præsternes og alt Folkets Nærværelse:

It happened the same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, that Hananiah the son of Azzur, the prophet, who was of Gibeon, spoke to me in the house of the LORD, in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,

2 "Så siger Hærskarers HERRE, Israels Gud: Jeg har sønderbrudt Babels Konges Åg.

"Thus speaks the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, 'I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.

3 Om to År fører jeg tilbage hertil alle HERRENs Huss Kar, som Kong Nebukadnezar af Babel tog herfra og førte til Babel;

Within two full years will I bring again into this place all the vessels of the LORD's house, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place, and carried to Babylon:

4 og Jojakims Søn, Kong Jekonja af Juda, og alle de landflygtige fra Juda, som kom til Babel, fører jeg tilbage hertil, lyder det fra HERREN; thi jeg sønderbryder Babels Konges Åg."

and I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, with all the captives of Judah, who went to Babylon,' says the LORD; 'for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.'"

5 Profeten Jeremias svarede Profeten Hananja i Nærværelse af Præsterne og alt Folket, som stod i HERRENs Hus,

Then the prophet Jeremiah said to the prophet Hananiah in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people who stood in the house of the LORD,

6 således: "Amen! Måtte HERREN gøre således og stadfæste, hvad du har profeteret, og føre HERRENs Huss Kar og alle de landflygtige fra Babel tilbage hertil!

even the prophet Jeremiah said, "Amen: LORD do so; the LORD perform your words which you have prophesied, to bring back the vessels of the LORD's house, and all them of the captivity, from Babylon to this place.

7 Men hør dog dette Ord, som jeg vil tale til dig og alt Folket:

Nevertheless hear you now this word that I speak in your ears, and in the ears of all the people:

8 De Profeter, som levede før mig og dig fra Fortids Dage, profeterede mod mange Lande og mægtige Riger om krig, Hunger og Pest;

The prophets who have been before me and before you of old prophesied against many countries, and against great kingdoms, of war, and of evil, and of pestilence.

9 men når en Profet profeterer om Fred, kendes den Profet, HERREN virkelig har sendt, på at hans Ord går i Opfyldelse."

The prophet who prophesies of peace, when the word of the prophet shall happen, then shall the prophet be known, that the LORD has truly sent him."

10 Så rev Profeten Hananja Ågstængerne af Profeten Jeremiass Hals og sønderbrød dem;

Then Hananiah the prophet took the bar from off the prophet Jeremiah's neck, and broke it.

11 og Hananja sagde i alt Folkets Nærværelse: "Så siger HERREN: Således sønderbryder jeg om to År Kong Nebukadnezar af Babels Åg og tager det fra alle Folkenes Hals." Men Profeten Jeremias gik sin Vej.

Hananiah spoke in the presence of all the people, saying, "Thus says the LORD: 'Even so will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon within two full years from off the neck of all the nations.'" The prophet Jeremiah went his way.

12 Men efter at Profeten Hananja havde sønderbrudt Ågstængerne og revet dem af Profeten Jeremiass Hals, kom HERRENs Ord til Jeremias således:

Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, after that Hananiah the prophet had broken the bar from off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying,

13 "Gå hen og sig til Hananja: Så siger HERREN: Du har sønderbrudt Ågstænger af Træ, men jeg vil lave Ågstænger af Jern i Stedet.

"Go, and tell Hananiah, saying, 'Thus says the LORD: You have broken the bars of wood; but you have made in their place bars of iron.

14 Thi så siger Hærskarers HERRE, Israels Gud: Et Jernåg lægger jeg på alle disse Folks Hals, at de må trælle for Kong Nebukadnezar af Babel; de skal trælle for ham, selv Markens Vildt har jeg givet ham."

For thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: "I have put a yoke of iron on the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and they shall serve him: and I have given him the animals of the field also."'"

15 Så sagde Profeten Jeremias til Profeten Hananja: "Hør, Hananja! HERREN har ikke sendt dig, og du har fået dette Folk til at slå Lid til Løgn.

Then the prophet Jeremiah said to Hananiah the prophet, "Hear now, Hananiah: the LORD has not sent you; but you make this people to trust in a lie.

16 Derfor, så siger HERREN: Se, jeg slænger dig bort fra Jordens Flade; du skal dø i År, thi du har prædiket Frafald fra HERREN."

Therefore thus says the LORD, 'Look, I will send you away from off the surface of the earth: this year you shall die, because you have spoken rebellion against the LORD.'"

17 Og Profeten Hananja døde samme År i den syvende Måned.

So Hananiah the prophet died the same year in the seventh month.
