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

¹Now Pashhur, the son of Immer the priest, who was chief officer in the house of Yahweh, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things.

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

²Then Pashhur struck Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the stocks that were in the upper gate of Benjamin, which was in the house of Yahweh.

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.].

³It happened on the next day, that Pashhur brought forth Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then Jeremiah said to him, Yahweh has not called your name Pashhur, but Magormissabib.

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.

⁴For thus says Yahweh, Behold, I will make you a terror to yourself, and to all your friends; and they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes shall see it; and I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall carry them captive to Babylon, and shall kill them with the sword.

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.

⁵Moreover I will give all the riches of this city, and all its gains, and all the precious things of it, yes, all the treasures of the kings of Judah will I give into the hand of their enemies; and they shall make them a prey, and take them, and carry them to Babylon.

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.

⁶You, Pashhur, and all who dwell in your house shall go into captivity; and you shall come to Babylon, and there you shall die, and there you shall be buried, you, and all your friends, to whom you have prophesied falsely.

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

⁷Yahweh, you have persuaded me, and I was persuaded; you are stronger than I, and have prevailed: I am become a laughing-stock all the day, every one mocks me.

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

⁸For as often as I speak, I cry out; I cry, Violence and destruction! because the word of Yahweh is made a reproach to me, and a derision, all the day.

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.

⁹If I say, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name, then there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with forbearing, and I can’t.

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!“

¹⁰For I have heard the defaming of many, terror on every side. Denounce, and we will denounce him, say all my familiar friends, those who watch for my fall; perhaps he will be persuaded, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on him.

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.

¹¹But Yahweh is with me as an awesome mighty one: therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail; they shall be utterly disappointed, because they have not dealt wisely, even with an everlasting dishonor which shall never be forgotten.

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

¹²But, Yahweh of Armies, who tests the righteous, who sees the heart and the mind, let me see your vengeance on them; for to you have I revealed my cause.

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

¹³Sing to Yahweh, praise Yahweh; for he has delivered the soul of the needy from the hand of evildoers.

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

¹⁴Cursed is the day in which I was born: don’t let the day in which my mother bore me be blessed.

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

¹⁵Cursed is the man who brought news to my father, saying, A boy is born to you; making him very glad.

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:

¹⁶Let that man be as the cities which Yahweh overthrew, and didn’t repent: and let him hear a cry in the morning, and shouting at noontime;

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?

¹⁷because he didn’t kill me from the womb; and so my mother would have been my grave, and her womb always great.

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

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