Jeremian 7
Raamattu 1933/38
7 Tämä on sana, joka tuli Jeremialle Herralta:
2 "Asetu Herran huoneen portille ja julista siellä tämä sana ja sano: Kuulkaa Herran sana, koko Juuda, te jotka tulette näistä porteista kumartaen rukoilemaan Herraa.
3 Näin sanoo Herra Sebaot, Israelin Jumala: Vaeltakaa hyvin ja tehkää hyviä tekoja, niin minä annan teidän asua tässä paikassa.
4 Älkää luottako valheen sanoihin, kun sanotaan: 'Tämä on Herran temppeli, Herran temppeli, Herran temppeli!'
5 Vaan jos te todella parannatte vaelluksenne ja tekonne, jos te todella teette oikeuden niin toiselle kuin toisellekin,
6 ette sorra muukalaista, orpoa ja leskeä, ette vuodata viatonta verta tässä paikassa ettekä seuraa muita jumalia turmioksenne,
7 niin minä annan teidän asua tässä paikassa, maassa, jonka minä olen antanut teidän isillenne, iankaikkisesta iankaikkiseen.
8 Mutta katso, te luotatte valheen sanoihin, joista ei ole hyötyä.
9 Miten on? Te varastatte, tapatte, rikotte avion, vannotte väärin, poltatte uhreja Baalille ja seuraatte vieraita jumalia, joita te ette tunne.
10 Ja te tulette ja astutte minun eteeni tähän huoneeseen, joka on otettu minun nimiini, ja sanotte: 'Me kyllä pelastumme' - tehdäksenne yhä kaikkia näitä kauhistuksia!
11 Ryövärien luolaksiko te katsotte tämän huoneen, joka on otettu minun nimiini? Katso, sellaiseksi minäkin olen sen havainnut, sanoo Herra.
12 Menkääpä minun asuinpaikkaani, joka oli Siilossa, jossa minä ensin annoin nimeni asua, ja katsokaa, mitä minä olen sille tehnyt kansani Israelin pahuuden tähden!
13 Ja koska te nyt olette kaikkia näitä tekoja tehneet, sanoo Herra, ettekä ole kuulleet, vaikka minä varhaisesta alkaen olen teille puhunut, koska ette vastanneet, vaikka minä teille huusin,
14 niin minä teen tälle huoneelle, joka on otettu minun nimiini, johon te luotatte, ja tälle paikalle, jonka minä olen antanut teille ja teidän isillenne, samoin kuin olen tehnyt Siilolle,
15 ja heitän teidät pois kasvojeni edestä, niinkuin olen heittänyt pois kaikki teidän veljenne, kaikki Efraimin jälkeläiset.
16 Mutta sinä älä rukoile tämän kansan puolesta, älä kohota heidän puolestaan huutoa ja rukousta äläkä niillä minua ahdista; sillä en minä sinua kuule.
17 Etkö näe, mitä he tekevät Juudan kaupungeissa ja Jerusalemin kaduilla?
18 Lapset kokoavat puita, isät sytyttävät tulen, ja vaimot sotkevat taikinaa valmistaaksensa uhrikakkuja taivaan kuningattarelle, ja he vuodattavat juomauhreja muille jumalille, minulle mielikarvaudeksi.
19 Minulleko he tuottavat mielikarvautta, sanoo Herra, eivätkö pikemmin itselleen, omaksi häpeäksensä?
20 Sentähden, näin sanoo Herra, Herra: Katso, minun vihani ja kiivauteni on vuotava tämän paikan ylitse, ihmisten, eläinten, kedon puitten ja maan hedelmän ylitse, ja se palaa sammumatta."
21 Näin sanoo Herra Sebaot, Israelin Jumala: "Lisätkää polttouhrinne teurasuhreihinne ja syökää lihaa.
22 Sillä en minä puhunut enkä antanut käskyä teidän isillenne poltto- ja teurasuhrista silloin, kun minä vein heidät pois Egyptin maasta,
23 vaan näin minä käskin heitä ja sanoin: Kuulkaa minun ääntäni, niin minä olen teidän Jumalanne ja te olette minun kansani; ja vaeltakaa aina sitä tietä, jota minä käsken teidän vaeltaa, että menestyisitte.
24 Mutta he eivät kuulleet, eivät korvaansa kallistaneet, vaan vaelsivat oman neuvonsa mukaan, pahan sydämensä paatumuksessa, ja käänsivät minulle selkänsä eivätkä kasvojansa.
25 Siitä päivästä, jona teidän isänne lähtivät Egyptin maasta, aina tähän päivään asti olen minä lähettänyt teidän tykönne kaikki palvelijani, profeetat - lähettänyt varhaisesta alkaen, päivä päivältä.
26 Mutta kukaan ei kuullut minua, ei kallistanut korvaansa, vaan he olivat niskureita, tekivät enemmän pahaa kuin heidän isänsä.
27 Ja kun sinä puhut heille kaiken tämän, niin he eivät kuule sinua, ja kun sinä heille huudat, niin he eivät sinulle vastaa.
28 Sentähden sano heille: Tämä on kansa, joka ei kuullut Herran, Jumalansa, ääntä eikä ottanut kuritusta varteen. Kadonnut on totuus ja hävinnyt heidän suustansa.
29 Leikkaa hiuksesi ja heitä ne pois ja viritä kalliokukkuloilla itkuvirsi, sillä Herra on hyljännyt ja sysännyt pois vihansa alaisen sukupolven.
30 Sillä Juudan miehet ovat tehneet sen, mikä on pahaa minun silmissäni, sanoo Herra. He ovat asettaneet iljetyksensä temppeliin, joka on otettu minun nimiini, ja saastuttaneet sen.
31 Ja he ovat rakentaneet Toofet-uhrikukkulat Ben-Hinnomin laaksoon, polttaakseen tulessa poikiansa ja tyttäriänsä, mitä minä en ole käskenyt ja mikä ei ole minun mieleeni tullut.
32 Sentähden, katso, päivät tulevat, sanoo Herra, jolloin ei enää sanota 'Toofet' ja 'Ben-Hinnomin laakso', vaan 'Murha-laakso', ja Toofetiin haudataan, kun ei ole muualla tilaa.
33 Ja tämän kansan ruumiit joutuvat taivaan lintujen ja maan eläinten ruuaksi, eikä näitä kukaan karkoita.
34 Ja minä lopetan Juudan kaupungeista ja Jerusalemin kaduilta riemun ja ilon huudon, huudon yljälle ja huudon morsiamelle, sillä maa on tuleva raunioiksi."

False Religion Worthless
7 This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord: 2 “Stand(A) at the gate of the Lord’s house and there proclaim this message:
“‘Hear the word of the Lord, all you people of Judah who come through these gates to worship the Lord. 3 This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Reform your ways(B) and your actions, and I will let you live(C) in this place. 4 Do not trust(D) in deceptive(E) words and say, “This is the temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord!” 5 If you really change(F) your ways and your actions and deal with each other justly,(G) 6 if you do not oppress(H) the foreigner, the fatherless or the widow and do not shed innocent blood(I) in this place, and if you do not follow other gods(J) to your own harm, 7 then I will let you live in this place, in the land(K) I gave your ancestors(L) for ever and ever. 8 But look, you are trusting(M) in deceptive(N) words that are worthless.
9 “‘Will you steal(O) and murder,(P) commit adultery(Q) and perjury,[a](R) burn incense to Baal(S) and follow other gods(T) you have not known, 10 and then come and stand(U) before me in this house,(V) which bears my Name, and say, “We are safe”—safe to do all these detestable things?(W) 11 Has this house,(X) which bears my Name, become a den of robbers(Y) to you? But I have been watching!(Z) declares the Lord.
12 “‘Go now to the place in Shiloh(AA) where I first made a dwelling(AB) for my Name,(AC) and see what I did(AD) to it because of the wickedness of my people Israel. 13 While you were doing all these things, declares the Lord, I spoke(AE) to you again and again,(AF) but you did not listen;(AG) I called(AH) you, but you did not answer.(AI) 14 Therefore, what I did to Shiloh(AJ) I will now do to the house that bears my Name,(AK) the temple(AL) you trust in, the place I gave to you and your ancestors. 15 I will thrust you from my presence,(AM) just as I did all your fellow Israelites, the people of Ephraim.’(AN)
16 “So do not pray for this people nor offer any plea(AO) or petition for them; do not plead with me, for I will not listen(AP) to you. 17 Do you not see what they are doing in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem? 18 The children gather wood, the fathers light the fire, and the women knead the dough and make cakes to offer to the Queen of Heaven.(AQ) They pour out drink offerings(AR) to other gods to arouse(AS) my anger. 19 But am I the one they are provoking?(AT) declares the Lord. Are they not rather harming themselves, to their own shame?(AU)
20 “‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign(AV) Lord says: My anger(AW) and my wrath will be poured(AX) out on this place—on man and beast, on the trees of the field and on the crops of your land—and it will burn and not be quenched.(AY)
21 “‘This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Go ahead, add your burnt offerings to your other sacrifices(AZ) and eat(BA) the meat yourselves! 22 For when I brought your ancestors out of Egypt and spoke to them, I did not just give them commands(BB) about burnt offerings and sacrifices,(BC) 23 but I gave them this command:(BD) Obey(BE) me, and I will be your God and you will be my people.(BF) Walk in obedience to all(BG) I command you, that it may go well(BH) with you. 24 But they did not listen(BI) or pay attention;(BJ) instead, they followed the stubborn inclinations of their evil hearts.(BK) They went backward(BL) and not forward. 25 From the time your ancestors left Egypt until now, day after day, again and again(BM) I sent you my servants(BN) the prophets.(BO) 26 But they did not listen to me or pay attention.(BP) They were stiff-necked(BQ) and did more evil than their ancestors.’(BR)
27 “When you tell(BS) them all this, they will not listen(BT) to you; when you call to them, they will not answer.(BU) 28 Therefore say to them, ‘This is the nation that has not obeyed the Lord its God or responded to correction.(BV) Truth(BW) has perished; it has vanished from their lips.
29 “‘Cut off(BX) your hair and throw it away; take up a lament(BY) on the barren heights, for the Lord has rejected and abandoned(BZ) this generation that is under his wrath.
The Valley of Slaughter
30 “‘The people of Judah have done evil(CA) in my eyes, declares the Lord. They have set up their detestable idols(CB) in the house that bears my Name and have defiled(CC) it. 31 They have built the high places of Topheth(CD) in the Valley of Ben Hinnom(CE) to burn their sons and daughters(CF) in the fire—something I did not command, nor did it enter my mind.(CG) 32 So beware, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when people will no longer call it Topheth or the Valley of Ben Hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter,(CH) for they will bury(CI) the dead in Topheth until there is no more room. 33 Then the carcasses(CJ) of this people will become food(CK) for the birds and the wild animals, and there will be no one to frighten them away.(CL) 34 I will bring an end to the sounds(CM) of joy and gladness and to the voices of bride and bridegroom(CN) in the towns of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem,(CO) for the land will become desolate.(CP)

King James Version
7 The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,
2 Stand in the gate of the Lord's house, and proclaim there this word, and say, Hear the word of the Lord, all ye of Judah, that enter in at these gates to worship the Lord.
3 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.
4 Trust ye not in lying words, saying, The temple of the Lord, The temple of the Lord, The temple of the Lord, are these.
5 For if ye throughly amend your ways and your doings; if ye throughly execute judgment between a man and his neighbour;
6 If ye oppress not the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, neither walk after other gods to your hurt:
7 Then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, for ever and ever.
8 Behold, ye trust in lying words, that cannot profit.
9 Will ye steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense unto Baal, and walk after other gods whom ye know not;
10 And come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, We are delivered to do all these abominations?
11 Is this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, even I have seen it, saith the Lord.
12 But go ye now unto my place which was in Shiloh, where I set my name at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.
13 And now, because ye have done all these works, saith the Lord, and I spake unto you, rising up early and speaking, but ye heard not; and I called you, but ye answered not;
14 Therefore will I do unto this house, which is called by my name, wherein ye trust, and unto the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.
15 And I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brethren, even the whole seed of Ephraim.
16 Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up cry nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to me: for I will not hear thee.
17 Seest thou not what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.
19 Do they provoke me to anger? saith the Lord: do they not provoke themselves to the confusion of their own faces?
20 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, mine anger and my fury shall be poured out upon this place, upon man, and upon beast, and upon the trees of the field, and upon the fruit of the ground; and it shall burn, and shall not be quenched.
21 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; Put your burnt offerings unto your sacrifices, and eat flesh.
22 For I spake not unto your fathers, nor commanded them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices:
23 But this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people: and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well unto you.
24 But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.
25 Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt unto this day I have even sent unto you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them:
26 Yet they hearkened not unto me, nor inclined their ear, but hardened their neck: they did worse than their fathers.
27 Therefore thou shalt speak all these words unto them; but they will not hearken to thee: thou shalt also call unto them; but they will not answer thee.
28 But thou shalt say unto them, This is a nation that obeyeth not the voice of the Lord their God, nor receiveth correction: truth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth.
29 Cut off thine hair, O Jerusalem, and cast it away, and take up a lamentation on high places; for the Lord hath rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath.
30 For the children of Judah have done evil in my sight, saith the Lord: they have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to pollute it.
31 And they have built the high places of Tophet, which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire; which I commanded them not, neither came it into my heart.
32 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that it shall no more be called Tophet, nor the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of slaughter: for they shall bury in Tophet, till there be no place.
33 And the carcases of this people shall be meat for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth; and none shall fray them away.
34 Then will I cause to cease from the cities of Judah, and from the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride: for the land shall be desolate.
