¹The word of Yahweh came also to me, saying,

¹A stalo sa slovo Hospodinovo ku mne povediac:

²You shall not take a wife, neither shall you have sons or daughters, in this place.

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

³For thus says Yahweh concerning the sons and concerning the daughters who are born in this place, and concerning their mothers who bore them, and concerning their fathers who became their father 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 grievous deaths: they shall not be lamented, neither shall they be buried; they shall be as dung on the surface of the ground; and they shall be consumed by the sword, and by famine; and their dead bodies shall be food for the birds of the sky, and for the animals 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 says Yahweh, Don’t enter into the house of mourning, neither go to lament, neither bemoan them; for I have taken away my peace from this people, says Yahweh, even loving kindness and 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, neither shall men lament for them, nor 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,

⁷neither shall men break bread for them in mourning, to comfort them for the dead; neither shall men give them the cup of consolation 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.

⁸You shall 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 says Yahweh of Armies, 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 gladness, 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.

¹⁰It shall happen, when you shall show this people all these words, and they shall tell you, Why has Yahweh pronounced all this great evil against us? or what is our iniquity? or what is our sin that we have committed against Yahweh 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 you shall tell them, Because your fathers have forsaken me, says Yahweh, and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have worshiped 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 have done evil more than your fathers; for, behold, you walk every one after the stubbornness of his evil heart, so that you don’t listen to me:

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

¹³therefore will I cast you forth out of this land into the land that you have not known, neither you nor your fathers; and there you shall serve other gods day and night; for I will show you no favor.

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, the days come, says Yahweh, that it shall no more be said, As Yahweh lives, 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 Yahweh lives, who brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the countries where he had driven them. I will bring them again into their land that I gave to 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 fishermen, says Yahweh, and they shall fish them up; and afterward I will send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the clefts 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 my eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from my face, neither is their iniquity concealed from my eyes.

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

¹⁸First I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double, because they have polluted my land with the carcasses of their detestable things, and have filled my inheritance with their abominations.

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.-

¹⁹Yahweh, my strength, and my stronghold, and my refuge in the day of affliction, to you shall the nations come from the ends of the earth, and shall say, Our fathers have inherited nothing but lies, vanity and things in which 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 to himself gods, which yet are no gods?

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

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

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.
