Jeremiah Buys a Field During the Siege
The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar.
The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar.
At that time the army of the king of Babylon was besieging Jerusalem, and Jeremiah the prophet was shut up in the court of the guard that was in the palace of the king of Judah.
For Zedekiah king of Judah had imprisoned him, saying, “Why do you prophesy and say, ‘Thus says the Lord: Behold, I am giving this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall capture it;
Zedekiah king of Judah shall not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans, but shall surely be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and shall speak with him face to face and see him eye to eye.
And he shall take Zedekiah to Babylon, and there he shall remain until I visit him, declares the Lord. Though you fight against the Chaldeans, you shall not succeed’?”
Jeremiah said, “The word of the Lord came to me:
Behold, Hanamel the son of Shallum your uncle will come to you and say, ‘Buy my field that is at Anathoth, for the right of redemption by purchase is yours.’
Then Hanamel my cousin came to me in the court of the guard, in accordance with the word of the Lord, and said to me, ‘Buy my field that is at Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, for the right of possession and redemption is yours; buy it for yourself.’ Then I knew that this was the word of the Lord.
“And I bought the field at Anathoth from Hanamel my cousin, and weighed out the money to him, seventeen shekels of silver.
I signed the deed, sealed it, got witnesses, and weighed the money on scales.
Then I took the sealed deed of purchase, containing the terms and conditions and the open copy.
And I gave the deed of purchase to Baruch the son of Neriah son of Mahseiah, in the presence of Hanamel my cousin, in the presence of the witnesses who signed the deed of purchase, and in the presence of all the Judeans who were sitting in the court of the guard.
I charged Baruch in their presence, saying,
‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Take these deeds, both this sealed deed of purchase and this open deed, and put them in an earthenware vessel, that they may last for a long time.
For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Houses and fields and vineyards shall again be bought in this land.’
(1) Так сказав Господь, Бог Ізраїля: Візьми чашу цього нерозбавленого вина з Моєї руки і напоїш усі народи, до яких Я тебе до них посилаю,
Jeremiah Prays for Understanding
“After I had given the deed of purchase to Baruch the son of Neriah, I prayed to the Lord, saying:
“After I had given the deed of purchase to Baruch the son of Neriah, I prayed to the Lord, saying:
(2) і виблюють, і стануть безумні від лиця меча, який Я посилаю посеред них.
‘Ah, Lord God! It is you who have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and by your outstretched arm! Nothing is too hard for you.
(3) І я взяв чашу з Господньої руки, і я напоїв народи, до яких мене Господь послав до них:
You show steadfast love to thousands, but you repay the guilt of fathers to their children after them, O great and mighty God, whose name is the Lord of hosts,
(4) Єрусалим, міста Юди, його царів і його володарів, щоб поставити їх на спустошення, на непрохідність і на освистання,
great in counsel and mighty in deed, whose eyes are open to all the ways of the children of man, rewarding each one according to his ways and according to the fruit of his deeds.
(5) і фараона, царя Єгипту, і його рабів, і його вельмож, і весь його народ,
You have shown signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, and to this day in Israel and among all mankind, and have made a name for yourself, as at this day.
(6) і всіх змішаних, і всіх царів чужинців, Аскалон, Ґазу, Аккарон, останок Азоту,
You brought your people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signs and wonders, with a strong hand and outstretched arm, and with great terror.
(7) Ідумею, Моавітську землю, синів Аммона,
And you gave them this land, which you swore to their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey.
(8) царів Тиру, царів Сидону, царів, що на другому боці моря,
And they entered and took possession of it. But they did not obey your voice or walk in your law. They did nothing of all you commanded them to do. Therefore you have made all this disaster come upon them.
(9) Дедан, Теман, Рос і кожного обстриженого на своєму обличчі,
Behold, the siege mounds have come up to the city to take it, and because of sword and famine and pestilence the city is given into the hands of the Chaldeans who are fighting against it. What you spoke has come to pass, and behold, you see it.
(10) і всіх змішаних, що осіли в пустелі,
Yet you, O Lord God, have said to me, “Buy the field for money and get witnesses” — though the city is given into the hands of the Chaldeans.’”
(11) і всіх царів Елама, і всіх царів персів,
The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah:
(12) і всіх царів зі сходу, тих, що далеко, і тих, що близько, — кожного до свого брата, і всі царства, що на обличчі землі.
“Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is anything too hard for me?
(13) І ти скажеш їм: Так сказав Господь Вседержитель: Пийте і сп’янійте! І виблюєте, і впадете, і не встанете від лиця меча, який Я посилаю посеред вас.
Therefore, thus says the Lord: Behold, I am giving this city into the hands of the Chaldeans and into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and he shall capture it.
(14) І буде, коли не схочуть прийняти чашу з твоєї руки, щоб пити, то скажеш: Так сказав Господь: Неодмінно питимете [1]!
The Chaldeans who are fighting against this city shall come and set this city on fire and burn it, with the houses on whose roofs offerings have been made to Baal and drink offerings have been poured out to other gods, to provoke me to anger.
(15) Бо в місті, в якому названо на ньому Моє Ім’я, Я починаю чинити зло, і ви жодним чином не очиститеся [2] , бо Я закличу меча на тих, що сидять на землі.
For the children of Israel and the children of Judah have done nothing but evil in my sight from their youth. The children of Israel have done nothing but provoke me to anger by the work of their hands, declares the Lord.
(16) І ти пророкуватимеш проти них ці слова, і скажеш: Господь заговорить з гори, Він видасть Свій голос зі Своєї святині. Він скаже слово проти місця Свого, і дадуть відповідь, наче збирачі винограду. І на тих, що сидять на землі,
This city has aroused my anger and wrath, from the day it was built to this day, so that I will remove it from my sight
(17) приходить вигублення, на частину землі, бо в Господа суд з народами, Він судиться з кожним тілом, тож безбожні були видані під меч, — говорить Господь.
because of all the evil of the children of Israel and the children of Judah that they did to provoke me to anger — their kings and their officials, their priests and their prophets, the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
(18) Так сказав Господь: Ось приходить зло від народів на народ, і велика буря виходить з краю землі.
They have turned to me their back and not their face. And though I have taught them persistently, they have not listened to receive instruction.
(19) І будуть ранені Господом Господнього дня від краю землі й аж до краю землі. Не будуть поховані, будуть за гній на обличчі землі.
They set up their abominations in the house that is called by my name, to defile it.
(20) Закричіть, пастирі, і закличте! І бийтеся, овечі барани, бо виповнилися ваші дні до зарізу, і впадете так, як вибрані барани.
They built the high places of Baal in the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, to offer up their sons and daughters to Molech, though I did not command them, nor did it enter into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.
(21) І пропаде втеча від пастирів і спасіння від овечих баранів.
They Shall Be My People; I Will Be Their God
“Now therefore thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, concerning this city of which you say, ‘It is given into the hand of the king of Babylon by sword, by famine, and by pestilence’:
“Now therefore thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, concerning this city of which you say, ‘It is given into the hand of the king of Babylon by sword, by famine, and by pestilence’:
(22) Голос крику пастирів і крик овечих баранів, бо Господь вигубив їхні пасовиська,
Behold, I will gather them from all the countries to which I drove them in my anger and my wrath and in great indignation. I will bring them back to this place, and I will make them dwell in safety.
(23) і оселя миру пропаде з-перед обличчя гніву Мого обурення.
