< Jeremiah 19 >

1 This is another message that Yahweh gave [to me]: “Go and buy a clay jar from a man who makes them. Then take with you some of the elders of the people and leaders of the priests.
Tako govori Gospod: »Pojdi in dobi si lončarjev vrč in vzemi od starcev izmed ljudstva in od starcev izmed duhovnikov;
2 Go out [of the city] past the Gate of Broken Pots, to the place [overlooking the dump for broken pottery in] the Ben-Hinnom Valley. Then give them a message.
in pojdi naprej v dolino sina Hinómovega, ki je pri vhodu vzhodnih velikih vrat in tam razglasi besede, ki ti jih bom povedal
3 Say to them, ‘[This message is for] you kings of Judah and [other] people of Jerusalem. Listen to what Yahweh is saying! The Commander of the armies of angels says that he will cause there to be a terrible disaster in [Jerusalem]. Those who hear about it will be stunned/shocked [IDM].
in reci: ›Poslušajte besedo od Gospoda, oh Judovi kralji in prebivalci Jeruzalema: ›Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Glejte, privedel bom zlo nad ta kraj, kdorkoli bo slišal o njem, mu bo v ušesih zvenelo.
4 [That will happen] because [you Israeli] people have stopped worshiping me, and have caused this place to be a place where [you worship] foreign gods. You burn sacrifices to gods that neither you nor your ancestors nor [even] the kings of Judah ever heard about. And you have filled this place with the blood of innocent people [whom you have killed].
Ker so me zapustili in odtujili ta kraj in na njem zažigali kadilo drugim bogovom, ki jih niti oni niti njihovi očetje niti Judovi kralji niso poznali in so ta kraj napolnili s krvjo nedolžnih;
5 You have built shrines to honor [your god] Baal, and at those shrines you have [killed] your own children and offered them to be sacrifices to Baal. I never commanded you to do that, I never spoke about doing that, I never even thought about anyone doing that.
zgradili so tudi Báalove visoke kraje, da svoje sinove sežigajo z ognjem za žgalne daritve Báalu, kar jim nisem zapovedal niti tega nisem govoril niti mi to ni prišlo na um.
6 So, beware, [because I, ] Yahweh, say that there will be a time when this garbage dump will no longer be called Topheth or Ben-Hinnom Valley; it will be called Slaughter Valley.
Zato, glejte, pridejo dnevi, ‹ govori Gospod, ›ko ta kraj ne bo več imenovan Tofet niti Dolina sina Hinómovega, temveč Dolina pokola.
7 In this place I will ruin the plans of [you people who live in] Jerusalem and in [other places in] Judah. I will allow your enemies who want to kill you to kill [many of] you with their swords. [Then] I will allow your corpses to remain on the ground to be food for vultures and wild animals.
Nasvet Juda in Jeruzalema bom na tem kraju naredil prazen in povzročil jim bom, da padejo pod mečem pred svojimi sovražniki in po rokah tistih, ki jim strežejo po življenju. Njihova trupla bom izročil, da bodo hrana perjadi neba in zemeljskim zverem.
8 I will [completely destroy] Jerusalem and cause it to become a heap of ruins that people will despise. All the people who pass by will be appalled, and they will be shocked when they see that the city has been destroyed.
To mesto bom naredil zapuščeno in sikanje. Vsak, kdor bo šel mimo, bo osupel in sikal zaradi vseh njegovih nadlog.
9 I will enable your enemies who want to kill you to surround the city for a long time. [Then the food will be all gone, and you people will be extremely hungry, with the result that] you people in the city will eat the flesh of your own children and your neighbors’ children.’
Povzročil jim bom, da jedo meso svojih sinov in meso svojih hčera in vsak bo jedel meso svojega prijatelja, v obleganju in strogosti, s katero jih bodo stisnili njihovi sovražniki in tisti, ki jim strežejo po življenju.
10 [Jeremiah, after you tell that to them], while the people who are with you are watching, smash the jar [that you brought].
Potem boš razbil vrč pred očmi mož, ki gredo s teboj
11 Then say to them, ‘This is what the Commander of the armies of angels says: “Just like this jar has been smashed and cannot be repaired, I will smash this city of Jerusalem and other places in Judah. You will bury some of your corpses here in this dump, until there is no more space to bury any more corpses.
in jim boš rekel: ›Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki: ›Celo tako bom zlomil to ljudstvo in to mesto, kakor nekdo razbija lončarjevo posodo, da ne more biti narejena ponovno cela. Pokopavali jih bodo v Tofetu, dokler ne bo nobenega prostora za pokop.
12 That is what I will do to this city and to you people who live here. I will cause this city to be desecrated, like [King Josiah caused Topheth to be] a place that was unfit for people to worship me there.
Tako bom storil temu kraju, ‹ govori Gospod ›in njegovim prebivalcem in to mesto bom naredil celó kot Tofet.
13 The houses in Jerusalem and the palaces of the kings of Judah will be desecrated like this place will be. All the houses where you burned incense on the rooftops to honor the stars [that you worshiped], and where you poured out wine [to be an offering] to your gods, will become (desecrated/unacceptable places for people to worship me).”’”
Hiše Jeruzalema in hiše Judovih kraljev bodo omadeževane kakor kraj Tofet, zaradi vseh hiš, na čigar strehah so zažigali kadilo vsej vojski neba in izlivali pitne daritve drugim bogovom.‹«
14 Then I returned from the garbage dump where Yahweh had sent me to tell them that message. Then I stood in the courtyard of Yahweh’s temple and said this to all the people [who were there]:
Potem je iz Tofeta prišel Jeremija, kamor ga je poslal Gospod, da prerokuje. Stopil je na dvor Gospodove hiše in vsemu ljudstvu rekel:
15 “This is what the Commander of the armies of angels says: ‘I will cause there to be a disaster in this city and in the villages around it like I promised, because you people have stubbornly [IDM] refused to pay attention to what I said to you.’”
»Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog: ›Glejte, nad to mesto in nad vse njegove kraje bom privedel vse zlo, ki sem ga proglasil zoper njega, ker so otrdili svoje vratove, da ne bi slišali mojih besed.«
