¹And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,

¹A stalo sa slovo Hospodinovo ku mne povediac:

²Thou shalt not take thee a wife, and thou shalt not have sons nor daughters in this place.

²Neber si ženy ani nemaj synov ani dcér na tomto mieste!

³For thus saith Jehovah concerning the sons and concerning the daughters that are born in this place, and concerning their mothers that bear them, and concerning their fathers that beget them in this land:

³Lebo takto hovorí Hospodin o synoch a o dcérach, splodených na tomto mieste, jako aj o ich materiach, ktoré ich porodily, a o ich otcoch, ktorí ich splodili v tejto zemi:

⁴They shall die of painful deaths; they shall not be lamented, neither shall they be buried; they shall be as dung upon the face of the ground, and they shall be consumed by the sword, and by famine, and their carcases shall be food for the fowl of the heavens and for the beasts of the earth.

⁴Pomrú prebolestnými smrťami, nebudú oplakávaní ani nebudú pochovaní, budú za hnojivo na tvári zeme, a pohynú mečom a hladom, a ich mŕtve telo bude za pokrm nebeskému vtáctvu a zemskej zveri.

⁵For thus saith Jehovah: Enter not into the house of wailing, neither go to lament or bemoan them; for I have taken away my peace from this people, saith Jehovah, the loving-kindness and the tender mercies.

⁵Lebo takto hovorí Hospodin: Nevojdeš do domu smútku ani nepojdeš oplakávať ani ich nepoľutuješ! Lebo som odpratal svoj pokoj od tohoto ľudu, hovorí Hospodin, milosť a zľutovanie.

⁶Both great and small shall die in this land: they shall not be buried; and none shall lament for them, or cut themselves, nor make themselves bald for them.

⁶A pomrú veľkí i malí v tejto zemi, nebudú pochovaní, ani ich nebudú oplakávať ani sa nenarežú ani si nespravia za nich plešiny,

⁷Nor shall they break [bread] for them in mourning, to comfort them for the dead; neither shall they give them the cup of consolations to drink for their father or for their mother.

⁷ani im nebudú lámať chleba pre smútok, aby potešili niektorého nad mŕtvym, ani ich nenapoja pohárom potešenia v smútku nad jeho otcom alebo nad jeho materou.

⁸And thou shalt not go into the house of feasting, to sit with them, to eat and to drink.

⁸Ani nevojdeš do domu hodovania, aby si sadol s nimi jesť a piť.

⁹For thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will cause to cease out of this place, before your eyes, and in your days, the voice of mirth and the voice of joy, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride.

⁹Lebo takto hovorí Hospodin Zástupov, Bôh Izraelov: Hľa, spôsobím to, aby umĺkol z tohoto miesta, pred vašimi očima a vo vašich dňoch, hlas veselosti a hlas radosti, hlas ženícha a hlas nevesty.

¹⁰And it shall come to pass, when thou shalt declare unto this people all these words, and they shall say unto thee, Wherefore hath Jehovah pronounced all this great evil against us? and what is our iniquity? and what is our sin which we have committed against Jehovah our God?

¹⁰A stane sa, keď oznámiš tomuto ľudu všetky tieto slová, že ti povedia: Prečo hovoril Hospodin proti nám všetko toto veľké zlé? A čo je naša neprávosť, alebo čo náš hriech, ktorým by sme zhrešili proti Hospodinovi, svojmu Bohu?

¹¹then shalt thou say unto them, Because your fathers have forsaken me, saith Jehovah, and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have worshipped them, and have forsaken me, and have not kept my law;

¹¹A povieš im: Preto, že mňa opustili vaši otcovia, hovorí Hospodin, a odišli za inými bohmi a slúžili im a klaňali sa im a mňa opustili a neostríhali môjho zákona.

¹²and you, ye have done still worse than your fathers; and there ye are walking every one after the stubbornness of his evil heart, not to hearken unto me:

¹²Ale vy ste robili ešte horšie ako vaši otcovia, lebo hľa, každý chodíte za umienenosťou svojho zlého srdca nepočúvajúc na mňa.

¹³and I will cast you forth out of this land, into a land that ye know not, ye nor your fathers; and there shall ye serve other gods day and night: because I will shew you no favour.

¹³Preto vás šmarím s tejto zeme na zem, ktorej ste neznali ani vy ani vaši otcovia, a tam budete slúžiť iným bohom vodne i vnoci, pretože vám nedám milosrdenstva.

¹⁴Therefore, behold, days are coming, saith Jehovah, that it shall no more be said, [As] Jehovah liveth, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;

¹⁴Preto hľa, idú dni, hovorí Hospodin, že sa už nebude viacej hovoriť: Ako že žije Hospodin, ktorý vyviedol synov Izraelových hore z Egyptskej zeme,

¹⁵but, [As] Jehovah liveth, who brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands whither he had driven them. For I will bring them again into their land, which I gave unto their fathers.

¹⁵ale: Jako že žije Hospodin, ktorý vyviedol synov Izraelových hore zo zeme severa a zo všetkých zemí, do ktorých ich bol rozohnal. A dovediem ich zpät do ich zeme, ktorú som dal ich otcom.

¹⁶Behold, I will send for many fishers, saith Jehovah, and they shall fish them; and afterwards will I send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them, from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.

¹⁶Hľa, pošlem po mnohých rybárov, hovorí Hospodin, a vylovia ich, a potom pošlem po mnohých lovcov, a zlapajú ich so všetkých vrchov a so všetkých brehov a z rozsadlín skál.

¹⁷For mine eyes are upon all their ways; they are not concealed from my face, neither is their iniquity hidden from before mine eyes.

¹⁷Lebo moje oči hľadia na všetky ich cesty, nie sú ukryté predo mnou, ani ich neprávosť nie je skrytá pred mojimi očima.

¹⁸But first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double, because they have profaned my land with the carcases of their detestable things, and with their abominations have they filled mine inheritance.

¹⁸Ale najprv im zaplatím dvojnásobne za ich neprávosť a za ich hriech, pretože poškvrnili moju zem mrcinou svojich hnusôb a svojimi ohavnosťami naplnili moje dedičstvo.-

¹⁹Jehovah, my strength and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of distress, unto thee shall the nations come from the ends of the earth, and they shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited falsehood [and] vanity; and in these things there is no profit.

¹⁹Hospodine, moja silo a moja pevnosť a moje útočište v deň súženia, k tebe prijdú národy od končín zeme a povedia: Naši otcovia zdedili iba lož a márnosť, a neni medzi tým niktoré, ktoré by prospelo.

²⁰Shall a man make gods unto himself, and they are no-gods?

²⁰Či si má človek spraviť bohov, ktorí predsa nie sú bohmi?

²¹Therefore, behold, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them to know my hand and my might; and they shall know that my name is Jehovah.

²¹Preto hľa, spôsobím to, aby už poznali tento raz, spôsobím to, aby poznali moju ruku a moju hrdinskú silu, a poznajú, že moje meno je Hospodin.
