1Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoon, Bumaba ka sa bahay ng hari sa Juda, at iyong salitain doon ang salitang ito, 2At iyong sabihin, Dinggin mo ang salita ng Panginoon, Oh hari sa Juda, na nauupo sa luklukan ni David, ikaw at ang iyong mga lingkod, at ang iyong bayan na pumapasok sa mga pintuang ito. 3Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoon, Mangagsagawa kayo ng kahatulan at ng katuwiran, at iligtas ninyo ang nanakawan sa kamay ng mamimighati: at huwag kayong magsigawa ng kamalian, huwag kayong magsigawa ng pangdadahas sa mga nakikipamayan, sa ulila, o sa babaing bao man; o mangagbubo man ng walang salang dugo sa dakong ito. 4Sapagka't kung tunay na inyong gawin ang bagay na ito, magsisipasok nga sa mga pintuang-daan ng bahay na ito ang mga hari na nangauupo sa luklukan ni David, na nakasakay sa mga karo at sa mga kabayo, siya at ang kaniyang mga lingkod, at ang kaniyang bayan. 5Nguni't kung hindi ninyo didinggin ang mga salitang ito, ako'y susumpa sa aking sarili, sabi ng Panginoon, na ang bahay na ito ay masisira. 6Sapagka't ganito ang sabi ng Panginoon tungkol sa sangbahayan ng hari sa Juda, Ikaw ay Galaad sa akin, at ulo ng Libano; gayon ma'y tunay na gagawin kitang isang ilang, at mga bayang hindi tinatahanan. 7At ako'y maghahanda ng mga manglilipol laban sa iyo, bawa't isa'y may kaniyang mga almas; at kanilang puputulin ang iyong mga piling cedro, at ipaghahagis sa apoy. 8At maraming bansa'y magsisipagdaan sa bayang ito, at mangagsasabi bawa't isa sa kanila sa kaniyang kapuwa, Ano't gumawa ang Panginoon ng ganito sa dakilang bayang ito? 9Kung magkagayo'y magsisisagot sila, Sapagka't kanilang pinabayaan ang tipan ng Panginoon na kanilang Dios, at nagsisamba sa ibang mga dios, at mga pinaglingkuran. 10Huwag ninyong iyakan ang patay, o panaghuyan man ninyo siya; kundi iyakan ninyong mainam ang yumayaon; sapagka't hindi na siya babalik, o makikita man niya ang kaniyang lupaing tinubuan. 11Sapagka't ganito ang sabi ng Panginoon tungkol kay Sallum na anak ni Josias, na hari sa Juda, na nagharing kahalili ni Josias na kaniyang ama, na lumabas sa dakong ito. Siya'y hindi na babalik pa rito: 12Kundi sa dakong pinagdalhan sa kaniyang bihag, doon siya mamamatay, at hindi na niya makikita ang lupaing ito. 13Sa aba niya na nagtatayo ng kaniyang bahay sa pamamagitan ng kalikuan, at ng kaniyang mga silid sa pamamagitan ng kalisyaan; na pinapaglilingkod ng kaniyang kapuwa na walang upa, at hindi niya binibigyan ng kaniyang kabayaran; 14Na nagsasabi, Ako'y magtatayo ng maluwang na bahay at maluwang na mga silid, at nabubuksan ng mga dungawan; at nakikisamihan ng cedro, at nakukulayan ng pula. 15Ikaw baga'y maghahari, sapagka't ikaw ay mayroong lalong maraming cedro? hindi ba ang iyong ama ay kumain at uminom, at naglapat ng kahatulan at kaganapan? nang magkagayo'y ikinabuti niya. 16Kaniyang hinatulan ang usap ng dukha at mapagkailangan; nang magkagayo'y ikinabuti nga. Hindi baga ito ang pagkilala sa akin? sabi ng Panginoon. 17Nguni't ang iyong mga mata at ang iyong puso ay sa kasakiman lamang, at upang magbubo ng walang salang dugo, at sa kapighatian, at sa karahasan, upang gawin. 18Kaya't ganito ang sabi ng Panginoon tungkol kay Joacim na anak ni Josias, na hari sa Juda, Hindi nila tataghuyan siya, na sasabihin, Ah kapatid kong lalake! o, Ah kapatid na babae! hindi nila tataghuyan siya, na sasabihin, Ah panginoon! o, Ah kaniyang kaluwalhatian! 19Siya'y malilibing ng libing asno, na hihilahin at itatapon sa labas ng mga pintuang-bayan ng Jerusalem. 20Ikaw ay sumampa sa Libano, at humiyaw; at ilakas mo ang iyong tinig sa Basan, at ikaw ay humiyaw mula sa Abarim; sapagka't lahat ng mangingibig sa iyo ay nalipol. 21Ako'y nagsalita sa iyo sa iyong kaginhawahan; nguni't iyong sinabi, Hindi ko didinggin. Ito ang naging iyong paraan mula sa iyong kabataan, na hindi mo dininig ang aking tinig. 22Lahat mong pastor ay pakakanin ng hangin, at ang mga mangingibig sa iyo ay mapapapasok sa pagkabihag; kung magkagayon ikaw ay mapapahiya at malilito dahil sa lahat mong kasamaan. 23Oh nananahan sa Libano, na ginagawa mo ang iyong pugad sa mga cedro, kahabaghabag ka nga pagka ang mga pagdaramdam ay dumating sa iyo, ang hirap na gaya ng sa babae sa pagdaramdam! 24Buhay ako, sabi ng Panginoon, bagaman si Conias na anak ni Joacim na hari sa Juda ay maging singsing na panatak sa aking kanang kamay, akin ngang huhugutin ka mula roon; 25At aking ibibigay ka sa kamay ng nagsisiusig ng iyong buhay, at sa kamay nila na iyong kinatatakutan, sa kamay ni Nabucodonosor na hari sa Babilonia, at sa kamay ng mga Caldeo. 26At itataboy ka, at ang iyong ina na nanganak sa iyo, sa ibang lupain, na hindi pinapanganakan sa inyo; at doon kayo mangamamatay. 27Nguni't sa lupain na pinagnanasaan ng kanilang kaluluwa na pagbalikan, doon hindi sila mababalik. 28Ito bagang lalaking si Conias ay isang sisidlang basag na walang kabuluhan? siya baga'y sisidlan na hindi kinaluluguran? bakit kanilang itinataboy, siya at ang kaniyang angkan, at itinapon sa lupain na hindi nila kilala? 29Oh lupa, lupa, lupa, iyong pakinggan ang salita ng Panginoon. 30Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoon, Isulat ninyo ang lalaking ito na walang anak, ang lalake na hindi giginhawa sa kaniyang mga kaarawan; sapagka't walang tao sa kaniyang angkan na giginhawa pa, na nauupo sa luklukan ni David, hindi na magpupuno pa sa Juda.
1Thus said Yahweh: Go down to the house of the king of Judah, and speak there this word, 2Say, Hear Yahweh’s word, king of Judah, who sits on the throne of David, you, and your servants, and your people who enter in by these gates. 3Thus says Yahweh: Execute justice and righteousness, and deliver him who is robbed out of the hand of the oppressor: and do no wrong, do no violence, to the foreigner, the fatherless, nor the widow; neither shed innocent blood in this place. 4For if you do this thing indeed, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting on the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, he, and his servants, and his people. 5But if you will not hear these words, I swear by myself, says Yahweh, that this house shall become a desolation. 6For thus says Yahweh concerning the house of the king of Judah: You are Gilead to me, the head of Lebanon. Yet surely I will make you a wilderness, cities which are not inhabited. 7I will prepare destroyers against you, everyone with his weapons; and they shall cut down your choice cedars, and cast them into the fire. 8Many nations shall pass by this city, and they shall say every man to his neighbor, Why has Yahweh done thus to this great city? 9Then they shall answer, Because they abandoned the covenant of Yahweh their God, and worshiped other gods, and served them. 10Don’t weep for the dead, neither bemoan him; but weep bitterly for him who goes away; for he shall return no more, nor see his native country. 11For thus says Yahweh touching Shallum the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who reigned instead of Josiah his father, and who went out of this place: He shall not return there any more. 12But in the place where they have led him captive, there shall he die, and he shall see this land no more. 13Woe to him who builds his house by unrighteousness, and his rooms by injustice; who uses his neighbor’s service without wages, and doesn’t give him his hire; 14who says, I will build me a wide house and spacious rooms, and cuts him out windows; and it is ceiling with cedar, and painted with vermilion. 15Shall you reign, because you strive to excel in cedar? Didn’t your father eat and drink, and do justice and righteousness? then it was well with him. 16He judged the cause of the poor and needy; then it was well. Wasn’t this to know me? says Yahweh. 17But your eyes and your heart are not but for your covetousness, and for shedding innocent blood, and for oppression, and for violence, to do it. 18Therefore thus says Yahweh concerning Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah: they shall not lament for him, saying, Ah my brother! or, Ah sister! They shall not lament for him, saying Ah lord! or, Ah his glory! 19He shall be buried with the burial of a donkey, drawn and cast out beyond the gates of Jerusalem. 20Go up to Lebanon, and cry; and lift up your voice in Bashan, and cry from Abarim; for all your lovers are destroyed. 21I spoke to you in your prosperity; but you said, I will not hear. This has been your way from your youth, that you didn’t obey my voice. 22The wind shall feed all your shepherds, and your lovers shall go into captivity: surely then you will be ashamed and confounded for all your wickedness. 23Inhabitant of Lebanon, who makes your nest in the cedars, how greatly to be pitied you will be when pangs come on you, the pain as of a woman in travail! 24As I live, says Yahweh, though Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were the signet on my right hand, yet would I pluck you there; 25and I will give you into the hand of those who seek your life, and into the hand of them of whom you are afraid, even into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans. 26I will cast you out, and your mother who bore you, into another country, where you were not born; and there you will die. 27But to the land t which their soul longs to return, there shall they not return. 28Is this man Coniah a despised broken vessel? is he a vessel in which no one delights? why are they cast out, he and his seed, and are cast into the land which they don’t know? 29O earth, earth, earth, hear Yahweh’s word. 30Thus says Yahweh, Write you this man childless, a man who shall not prosper in his days; for no more shall a man of his seed prosper, sitting on the throne of David, and ruling in Judah.
1Alzo zegt de HEERE: Ga af in het huis des konings van Juda, en spreek aldaar dit woord. 2En zeg: Hoor het woord des HEEREN, gij koning van Juda, gij, die zit op Davids troon, gij, en uw knechten, en uw volk, die door deze poorten ingaan! 3Zo zegt de HEERE: Doet recht en gerechtigheid, en redt den beroofde uit de hand des verdrukkers; en onderdrukt den vreemdeling niet, den wees noch de weduwe; doet geen geweld en vergiet geen onschuldig bloed in deze plaats. 4Want indien gijlieden deze zaak ernstiglijk zult doen, zo zullen door de poorten van dit huis koningen ingaan, zittende den David op zijn troon, rijdende op wagens en op paarden, hij, en zijn knechten, en zijn volk. 5Indien gij daarentegen deze woorden niet zult horen, zo heb Ik bij Mij gezworen, spreekt de HEERE, dat dit huis tot een woestheid worden zal. 6Want zo zegt de HEERE van het huis des konings van Juda: Gij zijt Mij een Gilead, een hoogte van Libanon; maar zo Ik u niet zette als een woestijn en onbewoonde steden! 7Want Ik zal verdervers tegen u heiligen, elk met zijn gereedschap, die zullen uw uitgelezen cederen omhouwen, en in het vuur werpen. 8Dan zullen veel heidenen voorbij deze stad gaan, en zullen zeggen, een ieder tot zijn naaste: Waarom heeft de HEERE alzo gedaan aan deze grote stad? 9En zij zullen zeggen: Omdat zij het verbond des HEEREN, huns Gods, hebben verlaten, en hebben zich voor andere goden nedergebogen, en die gediend. 10Weent niet over den dode, en beklaagt hem niet; weent vrij over dien, die weggegaan is, want hij zal nimmermeer wederkomen, dat hij het land zijner geboorte zie. 11Want zo zegt de HEERE van Sallum, den zoon van Josia, koning van Juda, die in de plaats van zijn vader Josia regeerde, die uit deze plaats is uitgegaan: Hij zal daar nimmermeer wederkomen. 12Maar in de plaats, waarhenen zij hem gevankelijk hebben weggevoerd, zal hij sterven, en dit land zal hij niet meer zien. 13Wee dien, die zijn huis bouwt met ongerechtigheid, en zijn opperzalen met onrecht; die zijns naasten dienst om niet gebruikt, en geeft hen zijn arbeidsloon niet! 14Die daar zegt: Ik zal mij een zeer hoog huis bouwen, en doorluchtige opperzalen; en hij houwt zich vensteren uit, en het is bedekt met ceder, en aangestreken met menie. 15Zoudt gij regeren, omdat gij u mengt met den ceder? Heeft niet uw vader gegeten en gedronken, en recht en gerechtigheid gedaan, en het ging hem toen wel? 16Hij heeft de rechtzaak des ellendigen en nooddruftigen gericht, toen ging het hem wel; is dat niet Mij te kennen? spreekt de HEERE. 17Maar uw ogen en uw hart zijn niet dan op uw gierigheid, en op onschuldig bloed, om dat te vergieten, en op verdrukking en overlast, om die te doen. 18Daarom zegt de HEERE alzo van Jojakim, zoon van Josia, koning van Juda: Zij zullen hem niet beklagen: Och mijn broeder! of, och zuster! Zij zullen hem niet beklagen: Och, heer! of, och zijn majesteit! 19Met een ezelsbegrafenis zal hij begraven worden; men zal hem slepen en daarhenen werpen, verre weg van de poorten van Jeruzalem. 20Klim op den Libanon en roep, en verhef uw stem op den Basan; roep ook van de veren; maar al uw liefhebbers zijn verbroken. 21Ik sprak u aan in uw groten voorspoed, maar gij zeidet: Ik zal niet horen. Dit is uw weg van uw jeugd af, dat gij Mijner stem niet hebt gehoorzaamd. 22De wind zal al uw herders weiden, en uw liefhebbers zullen in de gevangenis gaan; dan zult gij zekerlijk beschaamd en te schande worden, vanwege al uw boosheid. 23O gij, die nu op den Libanon woont, en in de cederen nestelt! hoe begenadigd zult gij zijn, als u de smarten zullen aankomen, het wee als ener barende vrouw! 24Zo waarachtig als Ik leef, spreekt de HEERE, ofschoon Chonia, de zoon van Jojakim, den koning van Juda, een zegelring ware aan Mijn rechterhand, zo zal Ik u toch van daar wegrukken. 25En Ik zal u geven in de hand dergenen, die uw ziel zoeken, en in de hand dergenen, voor welker aangezicht gij schrikt, namelijk in de hand van Nebukadrezar, den koning van Babel, en in de hand der Chaldeen. 26En Ik zal u, en uw moeder, die u gebaard heeft, uitwerpen in een ander land, waarin gijlieden niet geboren zijt, en daar zult gij sterven. 27En in het land, naar hetwelk hun ziel verlangt om daar weder te komen, daarhenen zullen zij niet wederkomen. 28Is dan deze man Chonia een veracht, verstrooid, afgodisch beeld? Of is hij een vat, waaraan men geen lust heeft? Waarom zijn hij en zijn zaad uitgeworpen, ja, weggeworpen in een land, dat zij niet kennen? 29O land, land, land! hoor des HEEREN woord! 30Zo zegt de HEERE: Schrijft dezen zelfden man kinderloos, een man, die niet voorspoedig zal zijn in zijn dagen; want er zal niemand van zijn zaad voorspoedig zijn, zittende op den troon Davids, en heersende meer in Juda.
