Йеремия 8
Библия, нов превод от оригиналните езици (с неканоничните книги)
8 (A)„В онова време – казва Господ – ще изхвърлят от гробниците костите на царете на Юдея и костите на техните сановници, и костите на свещениците, и костите на пророците, и костите на жителите на Йерусалим. 2 (B)И ще ги разпръснат пред слънцето и луната и пред цялото небесно войнство, които те са обичали и на които са служели, и които са следвали, и които са търсели, и на които са се покланяли. Няма да ги съберат и няма да ги погребат. Ще бъдат за тор на земята. 3 И смъртта ще бъде предпочитана пред живота от всички останали, които са оцелели от този злодеен род по всички останали места, където ги изгоня“ – казва Господ Вседържител.
Незачитането на Божията воля води към разруха
4 Тогава им кажи: „Така казва Господ: ‘Онези, които паднат, няма ли да станат? И който се отклони, няма ли да се върне? 5 Защо се отклони този народ – Йерусалим – в упорито отстъпничество? Те здраво се придържат към измамата, така че отказват да се върнат. 6 Заслушах се и чух, че не говорят право, никой не се разкайва за злините си, казвайки: «Какво сторих?» Всеки се впуска по своя път като кон, който се втурва в битка. 7 (C)Дори щъркелът в небето знае своите определени сезони и гургулицата, лястовицата и жеравът спазват времето на идването си, а Моят народ не познава закона на Господа. 8 Как казвате: «Ние сме мъдри и законът на Господа е с нас»? А ето лъжливото перо на книжовниците го е обърнало в лъжа. 9 Мъдрите ще бъдат посрамени, ще бъдат уплашени и хванати в мрежа. Ето те отхвърлиха словото на Господа, тогава в какво е мъдростта им? 10 (D)Затова ще отдам жените им на други, полята им – на други собственици. Защото всеки, от малък до голям, се е предал на користолюбие. От пророк до свещеник – всеки постъпва лъжливо. 11 (E)И лекуват раната на дъщерята на народа Ми повърхностно, като казват: «Мир, мир!», а мир няма. 12 Срамуват ли се, когато вършат отвратителни неща? Не, никак не ги е срам и не знаят да се изчервяват. Затова ще паднат между падналите, ще бъдат повалени по време на посещението Ми. 13 Ще ги изтребя докрай – казва Господ. Няма да останат гроздове на лозата, нито смокини на смоковницата. И шумата ще повехне, и което съм им дал, ще си отиде.’“
Пророк Йеремия оплаква настъпващата разруха
14 (F)Народът казва: „Защо седим ние? Съберете се и да отидем в укрепените градове и да загинем там, тъй като Господ, нашият Бог, ни е определил за гибел и ни е напоил с горчива вода, понеже сме съгрешили пред Господа.“ 15 (G)Надяваме се за мир, а няма добро, на време за изцеление, а има ужас. 16 От Дан се чува пръхтенето на конете му към врага, цялата земя се разтресе от цвиленията на силните му коне. Те идват и ще опустошат страната и всичко по нея, града и онези, които живеят в него. 17 (H)„Защото ето Аз изпращам срещу вас змии, усойници, които не могат да се омаят и ще ви хапят“ – казва Господ.
18 (I)Тогава аз казах: „Кога бих се утешил в скръбта, сърцето ми е изнемощяло.“ 19 „Ето гласа на дъщерята на Моя народ от далечна страна“ – говори Господ: „Не е ли Господ на Сион? Неговият Цар не е ли в него? Защо Ме гневят с техните идоли, с чуждите нищожества?“ 20 „Премина жътвата, свърши лятото, но ние не сме спасени – си казвам. 21 Поради съкрушението на моя народ съм съкрушен, ходя мрачен, ужас ме обзе. 22 Няма ли балсам в Галаад? Няма ли лекар там? Защо не идва изцеление за дъщерята на моя народ?“
23 [a] О, ако моята глава бе пълна с вода, очите ми биха били извор на сълзи! Тогава бих плакал ден и нощ за убитите от своя народ.
Jeremiah 8
American Standard Version
8 At that time, saith Jehovah, they shall bring out the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of his princes, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves; 2 and they shall spread them before the sun, and the moon, and all the host of heaven, which they have loved, and which they have served, and after which they have walked, and which they have sought, and which they have worshipped: they shall not be gathered, nor be buried, they shall be for dung upon the face of the earth. 3 And death shall be chosen rather than life by all the residue that remain of this evil family, that remain in all the places whither I have driven them, saith Jehovah of hosts.
4 Moreover thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith Jehovah: Shall men fall, and not rise up again? Shall one turn away, and not return? 5 Why then is this people of Jerusalem slidden back by a perpetual backsliding? they hold fast deceit, they refuse to return. 6 I hearkened and heard, but they spake not aright: no man repenteth him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? every one [a]turneth to his course, as a horse that rusheth headlong in the battle. 7 Yea, the stork in the heavens knoweth her appointed times; and the turtle-dove and the swallow and the crane observe the time of their coming; but my people know not the law of Jehovah.
8 How do ye say, We are wise, and the law of Jehovah is with us? But, behold, the false pen of the scribes hath [b]wrought falsely. 9 The wise men are put to shame, they are dismayed and taken: lo, they have rejected the word of Jehovah; and what manner of wisdom is in them? 10 Therefore will I give their wives unto others, and their fields to them that shall possess them: for every one from the least even unto the greatest is given to covetousness; from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely. 11 And they have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace. 12 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore shall they fall among them that fall; in the time of their visitation they shall be cast down, saith Jehovah. 13 I will utterly consume them, saith Jehovah: there shall be no grapes on the vine, nor figs on the fig-tree, and the leaf shall fade; and [c]the things that I have given them shall pass away from them.
14 Why do we sit still? assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the fortified cities, and let us [d]be silent there; for Jehovah our God hath [e]put us to silence, and given us water of [f]gall to drink, because we have sinned against Jehovah. 15 We looked for peace, but no good came; and for a time of healing, and, behold, dismay! 16 The snorting of his horses is heard from Dan: at the sound of the neighing of his strong ones the whole land trembleth; for they are come, and have devoured the land and all that is in it; the city and those that dwell therein. 17 For, behold, I will send serpents, adders, among you, which will not be charmed; and they shall bite you, saith Jehovah.
18 Oh that I could comfort myself against sorrow! my heart is faint within me. 19 Behold, the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people [g]from a land that is very far off: Is not Jehovah in Zion? is not her King in her? Why have they provoked me to anger with their graven images, and with foreign vanities? 20 The harvest is past, the [h]summer is ended, and we are not saved. 21 For the hurt of the daughter of my people am I hurt: I mourn; dismay hath taken hold on me. 22 Is there no balm in Gilead? is there no physician there? why then is not the [i]health of the daughter of my people [j]recovered?

Jeremiah 8
New International Version
8 “‘At that time, declares the Lord, the bones of the kings and officials of Judah, the bones of the priests and prophets, and the bones(A) of the people of Jerusalem will be removed(B) from their graves. 2 They will be exposed to the sun and the moon and all the stars of the heavens, which they have loved and served(C) and which they have followed and consulted and worshiped.(D) They will not be gathered up or buried,(E) but will be like dung lying on the ground.(F) 3 Wherever I banish them,(G) all the survivors of this evil nation will prefer death to life,(H) declares the Lord Almighty.’
Sin and Punishment
4 “Say to them, ‘This is what the Lord says:
“‘When people fall down, do they not get up?(I)
When someone turns away,(J) do they not return?
5 Why then have these people turned away?
Why does Jerusalem always turn away?
They cling to deceit;(K)
they refuse to return.(L)
6 I have listened(M) attentively,
but they do not say what is right.
None of them repent(N) of their wickedness,
saying, “What have I done?”
Each pursues their own course(O)
like a horse charging into battle.
7 Even the stork in the sky
knows her appointed seasons,
and the dove, the swift and the thrush
observe the time of their migration.
But my people do not know(P)
the requirements of the Lord.
8 “‘How can you say, “We are wise,
for we have the law(Q) of the Lord,”
when actually the lying pen of the scribes
has handled it falsely?
9 The wise(R) will be put to shame;
they will be dismayed(S) and trapped.(T)
Since they have rejected the word(U) of the Lord,
what kind of wisdom(V) do they have?
10 Therefore I will give their wives to other men
and their fields to new owners.(W)
From the least to the greatest,
all are greedy for gain;(X)
prophets(Y) and priests alike,
all practice deceit.(Z)
11 They dress the wound of my people
as though it were not serious.
“Peace, peace,” they say,
when there is no peace.(AA)
12 Are they ashamed of their detestable conduct?
No, they have no shame(AB) at all;
they do not even know how to blush.
So they will fall among the fallen;
they will be brought down when they are punished,(AC)
says the Lord.(AD)
13 “‘I will take away their harvest,
declares the Lord.
There will be no grapes on the vine.(AE)
There will be no figs(AF) on the tree,
and their leaves will wither.(AG)
What I have given them
will be taken(AH) from them.[a]’”
14 Why are we sitting here?
Gather together!
Let us flee to the fortified cities(AI)
and perish there!
For the Lord our God has doomed us to perish
and given us poisoned water(AJ) to drink,
because we have sinned(AK) against him.
15 We hoped for peace(AL)
but no good has come,
for a time of healing
but there is only terror.(AM)
16 The snorting of the enemy’s horses(AN)
is heard from Dan;(AO)
at the neighing of their stallions
the whole land trembles.(AP)
They have come to devour(AQ)
the land and everything in it,
the city and all who live there.
17 “See, I will send venomous snakes(AR) among you,
vipers that cannot be charmed,(AS)
and they will bite you,”
declares the Lord.
18 You who are my Comforter[b] in sorrow,
my heart is faint(AT) within me.
19 Listen to the cry of my people
from a land far away:(AU)
“Is the Lord not in Zion?
Is her King(AV) no longer there?”
20 “The harvest is past,
the summer has ended,
and we are not saved.”
