¹Now Pashur the son of Immer the priest, who was also chief governor in the house of the LORD, heard that Jeremiah prophesied these things.

¹Ko je pa Pashur, Imerjev sin, duhovnik, ki je bil višji glavar v hiši GOSPODOVI, slišal Jeremija, prorokujočega te besede,

²Then Pashur smote Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the stocks that were in the high gate of Benjamin, which was by the house of the LORD.

²udari Pashur Jeremija proroka in ga dene v klado, ki je bila v zgornjih vratih Benjaminovih pri hiši GOSPODOVI.

³And it came to pass on the morrow, that Pashur brought forth Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then said Jeremiah unto him, The LORD hath not called thy name Pashur, but Magormissabib.

³Bilo je pa drugi dan, ko je bil Pashur Jeremija potegnil iz klade, da mu reče Jeremija: Ne Pashur kliče GOSPOD ime tvoje, ampak Magor misabib [T. j. strah od vseh strani.].

⁴For thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will make thee a terror to thyself, and to all thy friends: and they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and thine eyes shall behold it: and I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall carry them captive into Babylon, and shall slay them with the sword.

⁴Kajti tako pravi GOSPOD: Glej, jaz te hočem navdati s strahom, tebe in vse prijatelje tvoje; in zgrudijo se od meča sovražnikov svojih, in tvoje oči bodo videle to; in izdam vsega Judo v roko kralja babilonskega, ki jih ujete odpelje v Babilon in jih udari z mečem.

⁵Moreover I will deliver all the strength of this city, and all the labours thereof, and all the precious things thereof, and all the treasures of the kings of Judah will I give into the hand of their enemies, which shall spoil them, and take them, and carry them to Babylon.

⁵Dam tudi vse bogastvo tega mesta in ves pridelek njegov in karkoli ima dragega, sploh vse zaklade kraljev Judovih izdam v roko njih sovražnikov: in jih oplenijo in ujemó in jih odpeljejo v Babilon.

⁶And thou, Pashur, and all that dwell in thine house shall go into captivity: and thou shalt come to Babylon, and there thou shalt die, and shalt be buried there, thou, and all thy friends, to whom thou hast prophesied lies.

⁶Tudi ti, Pashur, in vsi domačini tvoji pojdete v sužnost; in prideš v Babilon in tam umreš, in ondi boš pokopan ti in vsi prijatelji tvoji, ki si jim prorokoval lažnivo.

⁷O LORD, thou hast deceived me, and I was deceived; thou art stronger than I, and hast prevailed: I am in derision daily, every one mocketh me.

⁷Pregovarjal si me, GOSPOD, in dal sem se pregovoriti; močnejši si od mene, zato si zmagal. V posmeh sem ves dan, vsak me zasmehuje.

⁸For since I spake, I cried out, I cried violence and spoil; because the word of the LORD was made a reproach unto me, and a derision, daily.

⁸Kajti kadarkoli izpregovorim, moram vpiti, ‚Silovitost in razdejanje‘ kričati; tako mi je beseda GOSPODOVA v sramoto in v zasmeh ves dan.

⁹Then I said, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name. But his word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary with forbearing, and I could not stay.

⁹Ko pa rečem: Ne bom Ga omenjal, ne govori več v imenu Njegovem, tedaj je to srcu mojemu kakor goreč ogenj, zaprt v mojih kosteh, in pešam od prenašanja in strpeti ne morem več.

¹⁰For I heard the defaming of many, fear on every side. Report, say they, and we will report it. All my familiars watched for my halting, saying, Peradventure he will be enticed, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on him.

¹⁰Kajti slišal sem pregrešni govor mnogih, strašenje od vseh strani: „Ovadite, pa ga ovadimo!“ Vsi zaupni prijatelji moji strežejo na padec moj, govoreč: „Morda se da pregovoriti in ga zmagamo, in maščevali se bomo nad njim!“

¹¹But the LORD is with me as a mighty terrible one: therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail: they shall be greatly ashamed; for they shall not prosper: their everlasting confusion shall never be forgotten.

¹¹Ali GOSPOD je z menoj, podoben junaku strašnemu, zato se bodo oni, ki me preganjajo, spoteknili in ne zmagali; sram jih bode silno, ker se jim ne posreči; večna njih sramota se ne bo mogla pozabiti.

¹²But, O LORD of hosts, that triest the righteous, and seest the reins and the heart, let me see thy vengeance on them: for unto thee have I opened my cause.

¹²Torej, GOSPOD nad vojskami, ki izkušaš pravičnega, pregleduješ obisti in srce, vidim naj maščevanje tvoje nad njimi, ker sem tebi razodel pravdo svojo.

¹³Sing unto the LORD, praise ye the LORD: for he hath delivered the soul of the poor from the hand of evildoers.

¹³Prepevajte GOSPODU, hvalite GOSPODA, ker je otel dušo siromakovo iz roke hudobnikov!

¹⁴Cursed be the day wherein I was born: let not the day wherein my mother bare me be blessed.

¹⁴Proklet dan, ko sem se rodil; dan, ko me je povila mati moja, ne bodi blagoslovljen!

¹⁵Cursed be the man who brought tidings to my father, saying, A man child is born unto thee; making him very glad.

¹⁵Proklet tisti mož, ki je sporočil očetu mojemu, rekoč: Rodil se ti je sin, in silno ga je razveselil!

¹⁶And let that man be as the cities which the LORD overthrew, and repented not: and let him hear the cry in the morning, and the shouting at noontide;

¹⁶In tisti mož bodi podoben mestom, ki jih je razdejal GOSPOD, in ni se kesal, in sliši naj zjutraj vpitje in bojno kričanje v času opoldanskem:

¹⁷Because he slew me not from the womb; or that my mother might have been my grave, and her womb to be always great with me.

¹⁷ker me ni usmrtil že v maternici; in bila bi mati moja moj grob in nje maternica vedno noseča!Zakaj sem prišel iz maternice, da bi videl preglavico in žalost in bi v sramoti ginili dnevi moji?

¹⁸Wherefore came I forth out of the womb to see labour and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?

¹⁸Zakaj sem prišel iz maternice, da bi videl preglavico in žalost in bi v sramoti ginili dnevi moji?
