Jeremiah 39

In the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, came Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon and all his army against Jerusalem, and they besieged it.

Efter at Jerusalem var indtaget, i kong Zedekias af Judas niene regeringsår i den tiende Måned, kom Kong Nebudkadrezar af Babel med hele sin Hær til Jerusalem og belejrede det;

And in the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, the city was broken up.

i Zedekiass ellevte År på den niende Dag i den fjerde Måned blev Byen stormet

And all the princes of the king of Babylon came in, and sat in the middle gate, even Nergal–sharezer, Samgar–nebo, Sarsechim, Rab–saris, Nergal–sharezer, Rab–mag, with all the residue of the princes of the king of Babylon.

da kom alle Babels konges Fyrster og satte sig i Midterporten: Overhofmanden Nebusjazban, Magernes Øverste Nergal-Sarezer og alle Babels Konges andre Fyrster.

And it came to pass, that when Zedekiah the king of Judah saw them, and all the men of war, then they fled, and went forth out of the city by night, by the way of the king's garden, by the gate betwixt the two walls: and he went out the way of the plain.

Da Kong Zedekias af Juda og alle hans Krigsmænd så dem, flygtede de om Natten fra Byen ad Vejen til Kongens Have gennem Porten mellem de to Mure og tog Vejen ad Araba til.

But the Chaldeans' army pursued after them, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho: and when they had taken him, they brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he gave judgment upon him.

Men Kaldæernes Hær satte efter dem og indhentede Zedekias på Jerikos Lavslette; og de tog ham med og bragte ham op til Kong Nebukadnezar af Babel i Ribla i Hamats Land; og han fældede hans Dom.

Then the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah in Riblah before his eyes: also the king of Babylon slew all the nobles of Judah.

Babels Konge lod i Ribla Zedekiass Sønner dræbe i hans Påsyn; også alle de ypperste i Juda lod Babels Konge dræbe;

Moreover he put out Zedekiah's eyes, and bound him with chains, to carry him to Babylon.

derpå lod han Øjnene stikke ud på Zedekias og lod ham lægge i Kobberlænker for at føre ham til Babel.

And the Chaldeans burned the king's house, and the houses of the people, with fire, and brake down the walls of Jerusalem.

kaldæerne satte Ild på Kongens Palads og Folkets Huse og nedbrød Jerusalems Mure.

Then Nebuzar–adan the captain of the guard carried away captive into Babylon the remnant of the people that remained in the city, and those that fell away, that fell to him, with the rest of the people that remained.

Resten af Folket, der var levnet i Byen, Overløberne, der var løbet over til ham, og Resten af Håndværkerne førte Livvagtens øverste Nebuzaradan som Fanger til Babel,

But Nebuzar–adan the captain of the guard left of the poor of the people, which had nothing, in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and fields at the same time.

og kun nogle af den fattigste Befolkning, der intet ejede, lod Livvagts øverste Nebuzaradan blive tilbage i Judas Land, idet han samtidig gav dem Vingårde og Agre.

Now Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon gave charge concerning Jeremiah to Nebuzar–adan the captain of the guard, saying,

Men om Jeremias bød Kong Nebukadrezar af Babel Livvagts øverste Nebuzaradan:

Take him, and look well to him, and do him no harm; but do unto him even as he shall say unto thee.

"Tag ham og hav Øje med ham og gør ham ingen Men; gør med ham, som han selv ønsker!"

So Nebuzar–adan the captain of the guard sent, and Nebushasban, Rab–saris, and Nergal–sharezer, Rab–mag, and all the king of Babylon's princes;

Så sendte Livvagts øverste Nebuzaradan, Overhofmanden Nebusjazban og Magernes Øverste Nergal-Sarezer og alle Babels Konges andre Stormænd

Even they sent, and took Jeremiah out of the court of the prison, and committed him unto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, that he should carry him home: so he dwelt among the people.

Bud og, lod Jeremias hente i Vagtforgården og overgav ham til Gedalja, en Søn af Sjafans Søn Ahikam, for at han skulde føre ham til hans Hjem; og han boede iblandt Folket.

Now the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah, while he was shut up in the court of the prison, saying,

Medens Jeremias sad fængslet i Vagtforgården, kom HERRENs Ord til ham således:

Go and speak to Ebed–melech the Ethiopian, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring my words upon this city for evil, and not for good; and they shall be accomplished in that day before thee.

Gå hen og sig til Ætioperen Ebed-Melek: Så siger Hærskarers HERRE, Israels Gud: Se, jeg lader mine Ord gå i Opfyldelse på denne By til Ulykke og ikke til Lykke, og du skal have dem i Tankerne på hin Dag.

But I will deliver thee in that day, saith the LORD: and thou shalt not be given into the hand of the men of whom thou art afraid.

Men på hin Dag redder jeg dig, lyder det fra HERREN, og du skal ikke gives i de Mænds Hånd, for hvem du frygter;

For I will surely deliver thee, and thou shalt not fall by the sword, but thy life shall be for a prey unto thee: because thou hast put thy trust in me, saith the LORD.

thi jeg vil frelse dig, så du ikke falder for Sværdet, og du skal vinde dit Liv som Bytte, fordi du stolede på mig, lyder det fra HERREN
