2 Dengang belejrede Babels Konges Hær Jerusalem, og Profeten Jeremas sad fængslet i Vagtforgården i Judas Konges Palads,
2 Now at that time the army of the king of Babylon was besieging Jerusalem, and Jeremiah the prophet was shut up in the court of the guard, which was in the house of the king of Judah,
3 hvor Kong Zedekias af Juda havde ladet ham fængsle med de Ord: "Hvor tør du profetere og sige: Så siger HERREN: Se, jeg giver denne By i Babels Konges Hånd, og han skal indtage den;
3 because Zedekiah king of Judah had shut him up, saying, “Why do you prophesy, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord, “Behold, I am about to give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will take it;
4 og Kong Zedekias af Juda skal ikke undslippe Kaldæernes Hånd, men overgives i Babels Konges Hånd, og han skal tale med ham Mund til Mund og se ham Øje i Øje;
4 and Zedekiah king of Judah will not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans, but he will surely be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will speak with him face to face and see him eye to eye;
5 og han skal føre Zedekias til Babel, og der skal han blive, til jeg ser til ham, lyder det fra HERREN; når I kæmper med Kaldæerne, får I ikke Lykke!"
5 and he will take Zedekiah to Babylon, and he will be there until I visit him,” declares the Lord. “If you fight against the Chaldeans, you will not succeed”’?”
8 Så kom Hanamel, min Farbroders Søn, til mig i Vagtforgården, som HERREN havde sagt, og sagde til mig: "Køb min Mark i Anatot i Benjamins Land, thi du har Arveretten, og indløsningsretten er din; køb dig den!" Da forstod jeg, at det var HERRENs Ord.
8 Then Hanamel my uncle’s son came to me in the court of the guard according to the word of the Lord and said to me, ‘Buy my field, please, that is at Anathoth, which is in the land of Benjamin; for you have the right of possession and the redemption is yours; buy it for yourself.’ Then I knew that this was the word of the Lord.
12 og overgav Skødet til Baruk, Masejas Søn Nerijas Søn, i Nærværelse af Hanamel, min Farbroders Søn, og Vidnerne, som havde underskrevet Skødet, og alle de Judæee, som var til Stede i Vagtforgården;
12 and I gave the deed of purchase to Baruch the son of Neriah, the son of Mahseiah, in the sight of Hanamel my uncle’s son and in the sight of the witnesses who signed the deed of purchase, before all the Jews who were sitting in the court of the guard.
14 "Så siger Hærskarers HERRE, Israels Gud: Tag disse Skøder, både det forseglede og det åbne, og læg dem i en Lerkrukke, for at de kan holde sig i lange Tider.
14 ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, “Take these deeds, this sealed deed of purchase and this open deed, and put them in an earthenware jar, that they may last a long time.”
18 du, som øver Miskundhed mod Tusinder og gengælder Fædres Misgerning på deres Sønner efter dem; du store, vældige Gud, hvis Navn er Hærskarers HERRE,
18 who shows lovingkindness to thousands, but repays the iniquity of fathers into the bosom of their children after them, O great and mighty God. The Lord of hosts is His name;
19 rig på Råd og stor i Dåd, hvis Øjne er åbne over alle Menneskebørnenes Veje, for at du kan give enhver efter hans Vej og hans Gerningers Frugt;
19 great in counsel and mighty in deed, whose eyes are open to all the ways of the sons of men, giving to everyone according to his ways and according to the fruit of his deeds;
20 du, som gjorde Tegn og Undere i Ægypten og gør det den Dag i Dag både i Israel og blandt andre Mennesker og skabte dig det Navn, du har i Dag,
20 who has set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, and even to this day both in Israel and among mankind; and You have made a name for Yourself, as at this day.
23 og de kom og tog det i Eje; men de hørte ikke din Røst og adlød ikke din Lov; de gjorde intet af, hvad du havde pålagt dem; så lod du al denne Ulykke ramme dem.
23 They came in and took possession of it, but they did not obey Your voice or walk in Your law; they have done nothing of all that You commanded them to do; therefore You have made all this calamity come upon them.
24 Se, Stormvoldene har nået Byen, så den er ved at blive indtaget, og med Sværd, Hunger og Pest er Byen givet i de angribende Kaldæeres Hånd; had du talede, er sket, og du ser det selv.
24 Behold, the siege ramps have reached the city to take it; and the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans who fight against it, because of the sword, the famine and the pestilence; and what You have spoken has come to pass; and behold, You see it.
28 Derfor, så siger HERREN: Se, jeg giver denne By i kaldæernes og Kong Nebukadrezar af Babels Hånd, og han skal idtage den;
28 Therefore thus says the Lord, “Behold, I am about to give this city into the hand of the Chaldeans and into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and he will take it.
29 og Kaldæerne, der angriber denne By, skal komme og sætte Ild på den og afbrænde Husene, på hvis Tage man tændte Offerild for Baal og udgød Drikofre for andre Guder for at krænke mig.
29 The Chaldeans who are fighting against this city will enter and set this city on fire and burn it, with the houses where people have offered incense to Baal on their roofs and poured out drink offerings to other gods to provoke Me to anger.
30 Thi fra deres Ungdom af har Israeliterne og Judæerne kun gjort, hvad der var ondt i mine Øjne; thi Israeliterne gør ikke andet end krænke mig ved deres Hænders Værk, lyder det fra HERREN.
30 Indeed the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah have been doing only evil in My sight from their youth; for the sons of Israel have been only provoking Me to anger by the work of their hands,” declares the Lord.
31 Ja, en Kilde til Vrede og Harme har denne By været mig, lige fra den Dag de byggede den og til i Dag, så at jeg må fjerne den fra mit Åsyn
31 “Indeed this city has been to Me a provocation of My anger and My wrath from the day that they built it, even to this day, so that it should be removed from before My face,
32 for alt det ondes Skyld, som Israeliterne og Judæerne gjorde for at krænke mig, de deres Konger, Fyrster, Præster og Profefer, Judas Mænd og Jerusalems Borgere.
32 because of all the evil of the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah which they have done to provoke Me to anger—they, their kings, their leaders, their priests, their prophets, the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
35 og de byggede Baals Offerhøje i Hinnoms Søns Dal for at ofre deres Sønner og Døtre til Molok, hvad jeg ikke havde budt dem, og hvad aldrig var i min Tanke, at man skulde gøre så vederstyggelig en Ting for derved at lokke Juda til Synd.
35 They built the high places of Baal that are in the valley of Ben-hinnom to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire to Molech, which I had not commanded them nor had it entered My mind that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.
36 Men nu, så siger HERREN, Israels Gud, om denne By, som I siger er givet i Babels Konges Hånd med Sværd, Hunger og Pest:
36 “Now therefore thus says the Lord God of Israel concerning this city of which you say, ‘It is given into the hand of the king of Babylon by sword, by famine and by pestilence.’
37 Se, jeg vil samle dem fra alle de Lande, som jeg har bortstødt dem til i min Vrede og Harme og i stor Fortørnelse, og føre dem hjem til dette Sted og lade dem bo trygt.
37 Behold, I will gather them out of all the lands to which I have driven them in My anger, in My wrath and in great indignation; and I will bring them back to this place and make them dwell in safety.
40 Jeg slutter en evig Pagt med dem, at jeg ikke vil drage mig tilbage fra dem, men gøre vel itnod dem; og min Frygt lægger jeg i deres Hjerter, så de ikke viger fra mig.
40 I will make an everlasting covenant with them that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; and I will put the fear of Me in their hearts so that they will not turn away from Me.
42 Thi så siger HERREN: Som jeg bragte al denne store Ulykke over dette Folk, således vil jeg bringe over dem alt det gode, jeg taler til dem om.
42 For thus says the Lord, ‘Just as I brought all this great disaster on this people, so I am going to bring on them all the good that I am promising them.
44 man skal købe Marker for Penge og skrive Skøder og forsegle dem og tilkalde Vidner i Benjamins Land, i Jerusalems Omegn, i Judas Byer, i Bjerglandets, Lavlandets og Sydlandets Byer; thi jeg vender deres Skæbne, lyder det fra HERREN.
44 Men will buy fields for money, sign and seal deeds, and call in witnesses in the land of Benjamin, in the environs of Jerusalem, in the cities of Judah, in the cities of the hill country, in the cities of the lowland and in the cities of the Negev; for I will restore their fortunes,’ declares the Lord.”
