Jeremiah 33

1 While I was still being guarded in the courtyard of the palace, Yahweh gave me this second message:

Poleg tega je beseda od Gospoda drugič prišla Jeremiju, medtem ko je bil še zaprt na dvorišču ječe, rekoč:

2 “This is what I, the one who made the earth, who formed/shaped it and put it in its place, say [to the people of Jerusalem]: ‘My name is Yahweh.

»Tako govori Gospod, ki to dela, Gospod, ki je to oblikoval, da to osnuje, Gospod je njegovo ime.

3 Call out to me, and [then] I will tell you great and wonderful things that you have not known [before].’

›Kliči k meni in ti bom odgovoril in ti pokazal velike in mogočne stvari, ki jih ne poznaš.‹

4 This is what [I, ] Yahweh, the God whom [you] Israeli people [say you belong to], say: ‘[The men in this city] have torn down [some of] their houses, and [even parts of] the king’s palace, to get materials to strengthen the walls around the city, in order that [the soldiers of Babylonia will not be able to break through the walls after they climb up] the ramps that they have built against the walls, and [kill the inhabitants with] their swords.

Kajti tako govori Gospod, Izraelov Bog, glede hiš tega mesta in glede hiš Judovih kraljev, ki so zrušene z okopi in z mečem:

5 You are expecting to fight against the army from Babylonia, but [what will happen is that] the houses of this city will be filled with the corpses of the men of this city whom I will [allow to be killed] because I am extremely angry [DOU] with them. I have abandoned them because of all the wicked things that they have done.

›Prišli so, da se borijo s Kaldejci, toda to je, da jih napolnijo s trupli mož, ki sem jih umoril v svoji jezi in v svoji razjarjenosti in svoj obraz sem zaradi vse zlobnosti skril pred tem mestom.

6 However, [there will be a time when] I will cause the people in this city to be healthy and strong again. I will enable them to be prosperous and have peace.

Glej, privedel bom zdravje in zdravilo, jih ozdravil in jim razodel obilje miru in resnice.

7 I will bring the people of Judah and Israel back from the lands to which they were exiled. I will enable them to rebuild their towns.

Povzročil bom Judovemu ujetništvu in Izraelovemu ujetništvu, da se vrnejo in jih bom zgradil kakor poprej.

8 I will get rid of their guilt for all the sins that they have committed against me, and I will forgive them for their sin of rebelling against me.

Očistil jih bom pred vso njihovo krivičnostjo, s katero so grešili zoper mene, in oprostil jim bom vse njihove krivičnosti, s katerimi so grešili in s katerimi so se pregrešili zoper mene.

9 [When that happens], all the nations of the world will rejoice, and they will praise me and honor me. They will hear about all the good things that I have done for this city and, because of that, they will revere me, and they will tremble because I have caused [the people in this city] to have peace and to prosper.’

To mi bo ime radosti, hvala in čast pred vsemi narodi zemlje, ki bodo slišali vse dobro, ki jim ga storim. Bali se bodo in trepetali zaradi vse dobrote in zaradi vsega uspevanja, ki sem ga priskrbel.‹

10 And this is also what [I], Yahweh, say: ‘You people have said that this is a land where there are no [longer] any people or animals. But in the streets of Jerusalem that are now completely empty [DOU], and in the [other] towns in Judah,

Tako govori Gospod: ›Ponovno se bo na tem kraju, za katerega pravite, [da] bo zapuščen, brez človeka in brez živali, torej v Judovih mestih in na ulicah Jeruzalema, ki so zapuščene, brez človeka in brez naseljenca in brez živali, slišal

11 [some day] people will again be happy and laugh. Brides and bridegrooms will [again] sing [joyfully]. And many other people will also sing joyfully as they bring their offerings to me to thank me [for what I have done for them]. [They will sing this song]: “[We] thank you, the Commander of the armies of angels, because you are good [to us]. You faithfully love [us] forever.” [They will sing that] because I will cause [the people of] land to be as prosperous as they were before.’

glas radosti in glas veselja, glas ženina in glas neveste, glas tistih, ki bodo rekli: ›Hvalite Gospoda nad bojevniki, kajti Gospod je dober, kajti njegovo usmiljenje vztraja na veke, ‹ in od teh, ki bodo prinašali žrtev hvale v Gospodovo hišo. Kajti povzročil bom vrnitev ujetništva dežele, kakor na začetku, ‹ govori Gospod.

12 This land is [now] desolate. There are no people or animals living here. But [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, say this: ‘In this land there will again be pastures/fields where shepherds will lead their sheep.

Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki: ›Ponovno bo na tem kraju, ki je zapuščen, brez človeka in brez živali in v vseh njegovih mestih, prebivališče pastirjev, ki bodo svojim tropom povzročali, da se uležejo.

13 Shepherds will again count their sheep as the sheep walk by, outside the towns in the hilly area, in the western foothills, in the southern desert area, in the land [where the descendants] of Benjamin live, around Jerusalem, and outside [all] the [other] towns in Judah.’ [That will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.

V gorskih mestih, v dolinskih mestih, v mestih na jugu, v Benjaminovi deželi, v krajih okoli Jeruzalema in v Judovih mestih bodo tropi ponovno prehajali pod rokama tistega, ki jih prešteva, ‹ govori Gospod.

14 Listen to this! [I], Yahweh, say that there will be a time when I will do for the people of Israel and Judah [all the good things that] I promised to do [for them].

›Glej, prihajajo dnevi, ‹ govori Gospod, ›da bom izpolnil to dobro stvar, ki sem jo obljubil Izraelovi hiši in Judovi hiši.

15 At that time [DOU] I will appoint a righteous man who will be a descendant [MET] of King David. Throughout the land, he will do what is just and right.

V tistih dneh in v tistem času, bom povzročil, da Davidu zraste Mladika pravičnosti, in on bo izvršil sodbo in pravičnost v deželi.

16 At that time, [the people of] Judah will be rescued [from their enemies], and [the people of] Jerusalem will be safe. And people will say that the name of the city is ‘Yahweh [is the one who] vindicates/defends us’.

V tistih dneh bo Juda rešen in [prestolnica] Jeruzalem bo varno prebivala, in to je ime, s katerim bo imenovana: › Gospod, naša pravičnost.‹

17 And this is [also] what [I], Yahweh, say: ‘There will be descendants of King David ruling [MTY] Israel forever.

Kajti tako govori Gospod: ›Davidu nikoli ne bo manjkalo moža, da sedi na prestolu Izraelove hiše,

18 And there will always be priests who are descendants of Levi who [stand] in front of me and offer sacrifices that will be completely burned [on the altar] and who will burn grain offerings and [other] sacrifices.’”

niti ne bo duhovnikom Lévijevcem manjkal mož pred menoj, da daruje žgalne daritve in da vžiga jedilne daritve in da opravlja nenehno klavno daritev.‹«

19 [Then] Yahweh gave me this message:

Gospodova beseda je prišla Jeremiju, rekoč:

20 “This is what [I], Yahweh, say: ‘[You] certainly cannot annul my promise/agreement to cause nighttime to follow daytime each day.

»Tako govori Gospod: ›Če lahko prelomite mojo zavezo dneva in mojo zavezo noči in da ne bo več dneva in noči v njunem obdobju,

21 Similarly, you cannot annul the promise/agreement [that I made] with King David, who served me [well], that there will always be descendants of his who will rule [Judah]. The same is true for my agreement with the descendants of Levi who are priests who do work for me.

potem bo lahko tudi moja zaveza z Davidom, mojim služabnikom, prelomljena, da ne bi imel sina, da kraljuje na njegovem prestolu, in z duhovniki Lévijevci, mojimi služabniki.

22 No one can count the stars in the sky, and no one can count the grains of sand at the seashore. Similarly, I will cause there to be a huge number of priests who are descendants of David and descendants of Levi who will work for me.’”

Kakor vojska neba ne more biti prešteta niti morski pesek izmerjen, tako bom pomnožil seme Davida, svojega služabnika in Lévijevce, ki mi služijo.‹«

23 Yahweh gave another message to me. He said,

Poleg tega je Gospodova beseda prišla Jeremiju, rekoč:

24 “Have you noticed/heard that some people are saying, ‘Yahweh chose two groups, the people [of Judah] and the people [of Israel], and [later] abandoned them.’ They are despising my people and saying that Israel no longer deserves to be considered a nation.

»Mar ne preudarjaš tega, kar je to ljudstvo govorilo, rekoč: ›Dve družini, ki ju je Gospod izbral, je celó zavrgel?‹ Tako so prezirali moje ljudstvo, da ne bi bilo več narod pred njimi.‹

25 But this is what I say: ‘I will not change my laws that control the day and the night, the sky and the earth.

Tako govori Gospod: ›Če ne bi bilo moje zaveze z dnevom in nočjo in če ne bi določil odredb o nebu in zemlji,

26 Similarly, I will never abandon the descendants of David or the [other] descendants of Jacob, and I will always allow descendants of David to rule the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. I will bring my people back to their land, and I will act mercifully toward them.’”

potem bom zavrgel Jakobovo seme in Davida, svojega služabnika, tako da ne bom vzel nobenega iz njegovega semena, da bi bili vladarji nad semenom Abrahama, Izaka in Jakoba, kajti njihovemu ujetništvu bom povzročil, da se vrnejo in se jih bom usmilil.‹«
