Jeremiah

38

1And Shephatiah the son of Mattan, and Gedaliah the son of Pashhur, and Jucal the son of Shelemiah, and Pashhur the son of Malchijah, heard the words that Jeremiah spake unto all the people, saying,
1Aga Sefatja, Mattani poeg, ja Gedalja, Pashuri poeg, ja Juukal, Selemja poeg, ja Pashur, Malkija poeg, kuulsid neid sõnu, mis Jeremija rääkis kogu rahvale, öeldes:
2Thus saith Jehovah, He that abideth in this city shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence; but he that goeth forth to the Chaldeans shall live, and his life shall be unto him for a prey, and he shall live.
2'Nõnda ütleb Issand: Kes jääb siia linna, see sureb mõõga läbi, nälja ja katku kätte; aga kes läheb välja kaldealaste juurde, see jääb elama, temale jääb alles ta hing ja ta võib elada.
3Thus saith Jehovah, This city shall surely be given into the hand of the army of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it.
3Nõnda ütleb Issand: See linn antakse kindlasti Paabeli kuninga sõjaväe kätte ja ta vallutab selle.'
4Then the princes said unto the king, Let this man, we pray thee, be put to death; forasmuch as he weakeneth the hands of the men of war that remain in this city, and the hands of all the people, in speaking such words unto them: for this man seeketh not the welfare of this people, but the hurt.
4Siis ütlesid vürstid kuningale: 'Surmatagu ometi see mees, sest ta teeb lõdvaks nende sõjameeste käed, kes siia linna on alles jäänud, ja kogu rahva käed, rääkides neile seesuguseid sõnu; sest see mees ei otsi sellele rahvale rahu, küll aga õnnetust!'
5And Zedekiah the king said, Behold, he is in your hand; for the king is not he that can do anything against you.
5Ja kuningas Sidkija vastas: 'Vaata, ta on teie käes, kuningas ei saa ju teha midagi teie vastu!'
6Then took they Jeremiah, and cast him into the dungeon of Malchijah the king's son, that was in the court of the guard: and they let down Jeremiah with cords. And in the dungeon there was no water, but mire; and Jeremiah sank in the mire.
6Siis nad võtsid Jeremija ja viskasid ta kuningapoja Malkija kaevu, mis oli vahtkonnaõues; nad lasksid Jeremija köitega alla, aga kaevus ei olnud vett, vaid oli muda, ja Jeremija vajus mudasse.
7Now when Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, a eunuch, who was in the king's house, heard that they had put Jeremiah in the dungeon (the king then sitting in the gate of Benjamin,)
7Kui etiooplane Ebed-Melek, hoovkondlane, kes viibis kuningakojas, kuulis, et nad olid Jeremija pannud kaevu - kuningas istus parajasti Benjamini väravas -,
8Ebed-melech went forth out of the king's house, and spake to the king, saying,
8siis Ebed-Melek läks kuningakojast ja rääkis kuningaga, öeldes:
9My lord the king, these men have done evil in all that they have done to Jeremiah the prophet, whom they have cast into the dungeon; and he is like to die in the place where he is, because of the famine; for there is no more bread in the city.
9'Mu isand kuningas! Need mehed on talitanud kurjasti kõiges, mis nad on teinud prohvet Jeremijale, et nad viskasid ta kaevu. Seal sureb ta nälga, sest linnas ei ole enam leiba.'
10Then the king commanded Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, saying, Take from hence thirty men with thee, and take up Jeremiah the prophet out of the dungeon, before he die.
10Siis kuningas andis etiooplasele Ebed-Melekile käsu, öeldes: 'Võta siit kolmkümmend meest enesele appi ja tõmba prohvet Jeremija kaevust üles, enne kui ta sureb!'
11So Ebed-melech took the men with him, and went into the house of the king under the treasury, and took thence rags and worn-out garments, and let them down by cords into the dungeon to Jeremiah.
11Ja Ebed-Melek võttis mehed enesele appi ning läks kuningakotta, varakambri all olevasse ruumi, võttis sealt räbalaid ja kaltse ja laskis need köitega kaevu Jeremijale.
12And Ebed-melech the Ethiopian said unto Jeremiah, Put now these rags and worn-out garments under thine armholes under the cords. And Jeremiah did so.
12Ja etiooplane Ebed-Melek ütles Jeremijale: 'Pane nüüd need räbalad ja kaltsud enesele kaenlaaluseisse köite alla!' Ja Jeremija tegi nõnda.
13So they drew up Jeremiah with the cords, and took him up out of the dungeon: and Jeremiah remained in the court of the guard.
13Siis nad tõmbasid Jeremija köitega üles ja võtsid ta kaevust välja; ja Jeremija jäi vahtkonnaõue.
14Then Zedekiah the king sent, and took Jeremiah the prophet unto him into the third entry that is in the house of Jehovah: and the king said unto Jeremiah, I will ask thee a thing; hide nothing from me.
14Ja kuningas Sidkija läkitas sõna ning laskis tuua prohvet Jeremija enese juurde, Issanda koja kolmanda sissekäigu juurde; ja kuningas ütles Jeremijale: 'Ma tahan sinult küsida ühte asja, ära salga mulle midagi!'
15Then Jeremiah said unto Zedekiah, If I declare it unto thee, wilt thou not surely put me to death? and if I give thee counsel, thou wilt not hearken unto me.
15Aga Jeremija vastas Sidkijale: 'Kui ma sulle midagi avaldan, kas sa siis tõesti mind ei tapa? Aga kuigi ma sulle nõu annaksin, sa ei kuulaks mind!'
16So Zedekiah the king sware secretly unto Jeremiah, saying, As Jehovah liveth, that made us this soul, I will not put thee to death, neither will I give thee into the hand of these men that seek thy life.
16Siis kuningas Sidkija vandus Jeremijale salaja ja ütles: 'Nii tõesti kui elab Issand, kes meile hinge on loonud, mina ei tapa sind ega anna sind nende meeste kätte, kes püüavad su hinge.'
17Then said Jeremiah unto Zedekiah, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of hosts, the God of Israel: If thou wilt go forth unto the king of Babylon's princes, then thy soul shall live, and this city shall not be burned with fire; and thou shalt live, and thy house.
17Siis Jeremija ütles Sidkijale: 'Nõnda ütleb Issand, vägede Jumal, Iisraeli Jumal: Kui sa lähed vabatahtlikult välja Paabeli kuninga vürstide juurde, siis su hing jääb elama ja seda linna ei põletata tulega ning sina ja su sugu jääte elama.
18But if thou wilt not go forth to the king of Babylon's princes, then shall this city be given into the hand of the Chaldeans, and they shall burn it with fire, and thou shalt not escape out of their hand.
18Aga kui sa ei lähe välja Paabeli kuninga vürstide juurde, siis antakse see linn kaldealaste kätte ja nad põletavad selle tulega ja sina ei pääse nende käest.'
19And Zedekiah the king said unto Jeremiah, I am afraid of the Jews that are fallen away to the Chaldeans, lest they deliver me into their hand, and they mock me.
19Siis kuningas Sidkija ütles Jeremijale: 'Mina kardan neid juute, kes on põgenenud kaldealaste juurde; vahest antakse mind nende kätte ja nad teevad minuga halba nalja.'
20But Jeremiah said, They shall not deliver thee. Obey, I beseech thee, the voice of Jehovah, in that which I speak unto thee: so it shall be well with thee, and thy soul shall live.
20Aga Jeremija ütles: 'Ei anta! Kuule ometi Issanda häält selles, mis mina sulle räägin, siis su käsi käib hästi ja su hing jääb elama!
21But if thou refuse to go forth, this is the word that Jehovah hath showed me:
21Aga kui sa tõrgud välja minemast, siis see on sõna, mille Issand mulle ilmutas:
22behold, all the women that are left in the king of Judah's house shall be brought forth to the king of Babylon's princes, and those women shall say, Thy familiar friends have set thee on, and have prevailed over thee: [now that] thy feet are sunk in the mire, they are turned away back.
22Vaata, kõik naised, kes on jäänud Juuda kuningakotta, viiakse välja Paabeli kuninga vürstide juurde ja nad ütlevad: 'Sinu ustavad sõbrad on sind ahvatlenud ja on sinust jagu saanud: su jalad vajusid mudasse, aga nemad tõmbusid tagasi.'
23And they shall bring out all thy wives and thy children to the Chaldeans; and thou shalt not escape out of their hand, but shalt be taken by the hand of the king of Babylon: and thou shalt cause this city to be burned with fire.
23Kõik su naised ja lapsed viiakse kaldealaste juurde ja sa ei pääse nende käest, vaid Paabeli kuninga käsi tabab sind ja sinu pärast põletatakse see linn tulega.'
24Then said Zedekiah unto Jeremiah, Let no man know of these words, and thou shalt not die.
24Siis Sidkija ütles Jeremijale: 'Keegi ärgu saagu teada neid sõnu, muidu sa sured!
25But if the princes hear that I have talked with thee, and they come unto thee, and say unto thee, Declare unto us now what thou hast said unto the king; hide it not from us, and we will not put thee to death; also what the king said unto thee:
25Ja kui vürstid kuulevad, et ma sinuga olen rääkinud, ja nad tulevad su juurde ning ütlevad sulle: Kõnele ometi meile, mida sa rääkisid kuningale, muidu me surmame sinu, ära meile salga, ja mida kuningas sulle rääkis,
26then thou shalt say unto them, I presented my supplication before the king, that he would not cause me to return to Jonathan's house, to die there.
26siis ütle neile: Ma lasksin langeda kuninga ette oma alandliku palve, et ta ei saadaks mind tagasi Joonatani kotta surema.'
27Then came all the princes unto Jeremiah, and asked him; and he told them according to all these words that the king had commanded. So they left off speaking with him; for the matter was not perceived.
27Kõik vürstid tulidki Jeremija juurde ja küsisid temalt; aga ta vastas neile just nende sõnadega, nagu kuningas oli käskinud. Siis nad läksid vaikides ära ta juurest, ja asi jäi saladusse.
28So Jeremiah abode in the court of the guard until the day that Jerusalem was taken.
28Ja Jeremija jäi vahtkonnaõue kuni päevani, mil Jeruusalemm vallutati.
