¹The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, that was the first year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon;

¹Beseda, ki je prišla Jeremiju zoper vse ljudstvo Judovo v četrtem letu Jojakima, sinú Josijevega, kralja Judovega, ki je bilo prvo leto Nebukadnezarja, kralja babilonskega,

²The which Jeremiah the prophet spake unto all the people of Judah, and to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying,

²katero je govoril prorok Jeremiju vsemu ljudstvu Judovemu in vsem prebivalcem jeruzalemskim, rekoč:

³From the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon king of Judah, even unto this day, that is the three and twentieth year, the word of the LORD hath come unto me, and I have spoken unto you, rising early and speaking; but ye have not hearkened.

³Od trinajstega leta Josija, sinu Amonovega, kralja Judovega, do tega dne, to je triindvajset let, je govoril GOSPOD k meni, in govoril sem vam od ranega jutra in neprenehoma, pa niste poslušali.

⁴And the LORD hath sent unto you all his servants the prophets, rising early and sending them; but ye have not hearkened, nor inclined your ear to hear.

⁴Pošiljal je tudi GOSPOD k vam vse hlapce svoje, proroke, od ranega jutra in neprenehoma, pa niste poslušali in še ušesa svojega niste nagnili, da bi poslušali.

⁵They said, Turn ye again now every one from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that the LORD hath given unto you and to your fathers for ever and ever:

⁵In je govoril: Povrnite se vendar vsak s svojega hudobnega pota in od hudobnosti dejanj svojih, in ostanete v deželi, ki vam jo je podelil GOSPOD in očetom vašim, od veka do veka;

⁶And go not after other gods to serve them, and to worship them, and provoke me not to anger with the works of your hands; and I will do you no hurt.

⁶in ne hodite za tujimi bogovi, da bi jih častili in se jim klanjali, in ne dražite me z delom svojih rok, in ne storim vam hudega.

⁷Yet ye have not hearkened unto me, saith the LORD; that ye might provoke me to anger with the works of your hands to your own hurt.

⁷Ali niste me poslušali, govori GOSPOD, da bi me dražili z delom svojih rok, sebi v nesrečo.

⁸Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts; Because ye have not heard my words,

⁸Zatorej pravi tako GOSPOD nad vojskami: Zato ker niste poslušali besed mojih,

⁹Behold, I will send and take all the families of the north, saith the LORD, and Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants thereof, and against all these nations round about, and will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and an hissing, and perpetual desolations.

⁹glejte, pošljem in zberem vse severne rodovine, govori GOSPOD, pošljem tudi k Nebukadnezarju, kralju babilonskemu, in jih pripeljem zoper to deželo in zoper prebivalce njene in zoper vse te okolne narode; in jih s prokletjem pokončam in jih dam v strmenje in posmehovanje in razdejanje brez konca.

¹⁰Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the candle.

¹⁰In storim, da izgine izmed njih glas veselja in radosti glas, glas ženina in glas neveste, ropot mlinov in svetilnice luč.

¹¹And this whole land shall be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.

¹¹In vsa ta dežela bo razdejana in opustošena, in ti narodi bodo služili kralju babilonskemu sedemdeset let.

¹²And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon, and that nation, saith the LORD, for their iniquity, and the land of the Chaldeans, and will make it perpetual desolations.

¹²In zgodi se, ko se izpolni sedemdeset let, da bom kaznoval kralja babilonskega in oni narod, govori GOSPOD, za njih krivičnost, tudi deželo Kaldejsko, in jo premenim v puščavo večno.

¹³And I will bring upon that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah hath prophesied against all the nations.

¹³In nad ono deželo izpolnim vse besede svoje, ki sem jih govoril zoper njo; karkoli je pisano v tej knjigi, kar je prorokoval Jeremija zoper vse narode.

¹⁴For many nations and great kings shall serve themselves of them also: and I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the works of their own hands.

¹⁴Kajti tudi nje bodo zasužnjili mnogi narodi in veliki kralji; tedaj jim povrnem po njih delih in po tem, kar so storile njih roke.

¹⁵For thus saith the LORD God of Israel unto me; Take the wine cup of this fury at my hand, and cause all the nations, to whom I send thee, to drink it.

¹⁵Kajti tako mi je rekel GOSPOD, Bog Izraelov: Vzemi to čašo vina srdú iz roke moje ter jo daj piti vsem narodom, h katerim te pošiljam,

¹⁶And they shall drink, and be moved, and be mad, because of the sword that I will send among them.

¹⁶da naj pijo in tavajo in divjajo, zavoljo meča, ki ga jaz pošljem mednje.

¹⁷Then took I the cup at the LORD's hand, and made all the nations to drink, unto whom the LORD had sent me:

¹⁷Torej sem vzel čašo iz roke GOSPODOVE in jo dal piti vsem tistim narodom, h katerim me je poslal GOSPOD:

¹⁸To wit, Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, and the kings thereof, and the princes thereof, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, an hissing, and a curse; as it is this day;

¹⁸Jeruzalemu in mestom Judovim in njih kraljem in njih knezom, izdavši jih v opustošenje, strmenje, zasmehovanje in preklinjanje, kakor je današnji dan;

¹⁹Pharaoh king of Egypt, and his servants, and his princes, and all his people;

¹⁹Faraonu, kralju egiptovskemu, in hlapcem njegovim in knezom njegovim in vsemu njegovemu ljudstvu,

²⁰And all the mingled people, and all the kings of the land of Uz, and all the kings of the land of the Philistines, and Ashkelon, and Azzah, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod,

²⁰in vsej tisti mešanici in vsem kraljem v deželi Uzovi in vsem kraljem v deželi Filistejcev, Askelonu in Gazi in Ekronu in ostanku v Asdodu,

²¹Edom, and Moab, and the children of Ammon,

²¹Edomu in Moabu in sinom Amonovim,

²²And all the kings of Tyrus, and all the kings of Zidon, and the kings of the isles which are beyond the sea,

²²in vsem kraljem tirskim in vsem kraljem sidonskim in kraljem na otokih, ki so onkraj morja,

²³Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, and all that are in the utmost corners,

²³Dedanu in Temi in Buzu in vsem ob strani glave ostriženim,

²⁴And all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the mingled people that dwell in the desert,

²⁴in vsem kraljem arabskim in vsem kraljem mešanega ljudstva, ki prebiva v puščavi,

²⁵And all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes,

²⁵in vsem kraljem v Zimri in vsem kraljem v Elamu in vsem kraljem medskim,

²⁶And all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another, and all the kingdoms of the world, which are upon the face of the earth: and the king of Sheshach shall drink after them.

²⁶in vsem kraljem na severu, bližnjim in daljnim, zaporedoma, in vsem kraljestvom sveta, kar jih je na površju zemlje; in kralj v Šešaku [T. j. Babel.] bo pil za njimi.

²⁷Therefore thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Drink ye, and be drunken, and spue, and fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.

²⁷In porečeš jim: Tako pravi GOSPOD nad vojskami, Bog Izraelov: Pijte in upijanite se; tudi bljujte in padite tako, da ne vstanete več, zavoljo meča, ki ga jaz pošljem med vas.

²⁸And it shall be, if they refuse to take the cup at thine hand to drink, then shalt thou say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Ye shall certainly drink.

²⁸Ako se pa bodo branili prejeti čašo iz roke tvoje, da pijo, jim reci: Tako pravi GOSPOD nad vojskami: Vsekakor boste pili.

²⁹For, lo, I begin to bring evil on the city which is called by my name, and should ye be utterly unpunished? Ye shall not be unpunished: for I will call for a sword upon all the inhabitants of the earth, saith the LORD of hosts.

²⁹Kajti glejte, v tistem mestu, ki se kliče po mojem imenu, sem jaz začel tepsti z nesrečami, in vi bi bili čisto brez kazni? Ne bodete brez kazni, kajti meč pokličem jaz zoper vse prebivalce zemlje, govori GOSPOD nad vojskami.

³⁰Therefore prophesy thou against them all these words, and say unto them, The LORD shall roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation; he shall mightily roar upon his habitation; he shall give a shout, as they that tread the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.

³⁰Ti torej jim prorokuj vse tiste besede in jim reci: GOSPOD bo rjovel z višave in iz prebivališča svetosti svoje bo zagnal svoj glas, močno bo rjovel zoper stajo svojo, zažene vpitje, kakršno je mastilcev, zoper vse prebivalce na zemlji.

³¹A noise shall come even to the ends of the earth; for the LORD hath a controversy with the nations, he will plead with all flesh; he will give them that are wicked to the sword, saith the LORD.

³¹Šum pride prav do kraja zemlje; zakaj GOSPOD ima prepir z narodi, pravdal se bo z vsem mesom; brezbožnike izroči meču, govori GOSPOD.

³²Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.

³²Tako pravi GOSPOD nad vojskami: Glej, nesreča pojde od naroda do naroda, in silen vihar se vzdigne od skrajnih strani zemeljskih.

³³And the slain of the LORD shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the ground.

³³In ubitih od GOSPODA bo tisti dan ležalo od enega konca zemlje do drugega; ne bo se žalovalo po njih, ne bodo jih pobirali, ne pokopavali; za gnoj bodo na površju zemlje.

³⁴Howl, ye shepherds, and cry; and wallow yourselves in the ashes, ye principal of the flock: for the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions are accomplished; and ye shall fall like a pleasant vessel.

³⁴Tulite, pastirji, in vpijte in valjajte se po pepelu, vi prvaki črede! kajti dopolnjeni so dnevi vaši, da boste poklani; in razkropim vas, ko popadate kakor drage posode.

³⁵And the shepherds shall have no way to flee, nor the principal of the flock to escape.

³⁵In pribežališče premine pastirjem in prilika rešiti se prvakom črede.

³⁶A voice of the cry of the shepherds, and an howling of the principal of the flock, shall be heard: for the LORD hath spoiled their pasture.

³⁶Čuj! vpijte pastirjev in tuljenje prvakov črede; kajti GOSPOD pustoši njih pašnik.

³⁷And the peaceable habitations are cut down because of the fierce anger of the LORD.

³⁷In podero se staje, ki imajo mir, zavoljo srdite jeze GOSPODOVE.Zapustil je kakor mlad lev brlog svoj; kajti njih dežela je postala puščava pod ostrino pokončevalnega meča in od togote jeze Njegove.

³⁸He hath forsaken his covert, as the lion: for their land is desolate because of the fierceness of the oppressor, and because of his fierce anger.

³⁸Zapustil je kakor mlad lev brlog svoj; kajti njih dežela je postala puščava pod ostrino pokončevalnega meča in od togote jeze Njegove.
