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

¹Imam Pasyhur anak Imer adalah kepala pengawas Rumah TUHAN. Ketika ia mendengar aku mengumumkan semua hal itu,

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.

²ia memerintahkan supaya aku dipukul dan dipasung di Pintu Gerbang Benyamin, gerbang bagian atas di Rumah TUHAN.

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.

³Pagi berikutnya setelah Pasyhur melepaskan aku dari pasungan, aku berkata kepadanya, "Nama yang akan diberikan TUHAN kepadamu bukan Pasyhur, tetapi 'Teror di mana-mana'.

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.

⁴TUHAN sendiri berkata, 'Engkau akan Kujadikan teror bagi dirimu sendiri dan bagi kawan-kawanmu. Kau akan melihat mereka dibunuh oleh musuh mereka. Semua orang Yehuda akan Kubiarkan dikuasai oleh raja Babel; sebagian dari mereka akan diangkutnya sebagai tawanan ke Babel, dan sisanya akan dibunuh.

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.

⁵Musuh mereka akan Kubiarkan juga menjarahi dan mengangkut ke Babel semua kekayaan kota ini, serta semua harta miliknya, bahkan barang-barang pusaka raja-raja Yehuda.

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.

⁶Dan engkau, Pasyhur, bersama seluruh keluargamu juga akan ditangkap dan diangkut ke Babel. Di sana engkau akan mati dan dikuburkan; begitu pula semua kawanmu yang telah mendengarkan kebohongan-kebohonganmu.'"

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.

⁷TUHAN, Engkau membujuk aku dan aku telah terbujuk. Engkau lebih kuat dari aku dan telah menundukkan aku. Aku diolok setiap orang, dihina dari pagi sampai petang.

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.

⁸Setiap kali aku berbicara, aku harus berteriak sekuat tenaga, "Kekejaman! Bencana!" TUHAN, aku diejek dan dihina setiap waktu, karena menyampaikan pesan-Mu.

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.

⁹Tapi bila dalam hatiku aku berkata, "Biarlah TUHAN kulupakan saja, tak mau lagi aku berbicara atas nama-Nya," maka pesan-Mu bagaikan api yang membara di hati sanubari. Telah kucoba menahannya, tapi ternyata aku tak kuasa.

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.

¹⁰Terdengar orang berbisik di mana-mana, "Ketakutan merajalela! Mari laporkan dia kepada yang berkuasa!" Bahkan semua sahabat karibku menantikan kejatuhanku. Kata mereka, "Barangkali dengan bujukan, ia dapat kita kalahkan, supaya dapatlah kita membalas dendam kepadanya."

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.

¹¹Tetapi Engkau, ya TUHAN, di pihakku; Engkau sangat kuat lagi perkasa. Mereka yang mengejar dan menindas aku akan jatuh dan tak berdaya. Mereka akan malu selamanya, gagallah semua rencana mereka. Kehinaan mereka itu akan diingat selalu.

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.

¹²Tetapi, ya TUHAN Yang Mahakuasa, dengan adil Kauuji manusia; Kau tahu hati dan pikiran mereka. Karena itu perkenankanlah aku melihat Engkau membalas kejahatan musuh sebab kepada-Mu kuserahkan perkaraku.

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

¹³Menyanyilah bagi TUHAN dan pujilah Dia sebab Ia melepaskan orang tertekan dari kuasa orang durhaka.

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

¹⁴Terkutuklah hari kelahiranku! Biarlah terhina saat aku dilahirkan ibu.

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

¹⁵Terkutuklah juga pembawa berita yang membuat ayahku sangat gembira, ketika diberitahukan kepadanya, "Engkau mendapat seorang putra!"

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;

¹⁶Biarlah si pembawa berita itu serupa kota-kota yang dihancurkan TUHAN tanpa iba. Biarlah ia mendengar jerit kesakitan di waktu pagi, dan pekik pertempuran di tengah hari.

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

¹⁷Sebab ia tidak membunuh aku ketika aku masih dalam kandungan, supaya aku tetap dikandung ibuku dan rahimnya menjadi bagiku sebagai kuburan.

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

¹⁸Mengapa aku harus dilahirkan? Hanyakah untuk derita dan kesukaran? Dan supaya hidupku berlalu semata-mata dalam malu?
