Jeremiah 26
New King James Version
Jeremiah Saved from Death(A)
26 In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word came from the Lord, saying, 2 “Thus says the Lord: ‘Stand in (B)the court of the Lord’s house, and speak to all the cities of Judah, which come to worship in the Lord’s house, (C)all the words that I command you to speak to them. (D)Do not diminish a word. 3 (E)Perhaps everyone will listen and turn from his evil way, that I may (F)relent concerning the calamity which I purpose to bring on them because of the evil of their doings.’ 4 And you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord: (G)“If you will not listen to Me, to walk in My law which I have set before you, 5 to heed the words of My servants the prophets (H)whom I sent to you, both rising up early and sending them (but you have not heeded), 6 then I will make this house like (I)Shiloh, and will make this city (J)a curse to all the nations of the earth.” ’ ”
7 So the priests and the prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah speaking these words in the house of the Lord. 8 Now it happened, when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking all that the Lord had commanded him to speak to all the people, that the priests and the prophets and all the people seized him, saying, “You will surely die! 9 Why have you prophesied in the name of the Lord, saying, ‘This house shall be like Shiloh, and this city shall be (K)desolate, without an inhabitant’?” And all the people were gathered against Jeremiah in the house of the Lord.
10 When the princes of Judah heard these things, they came up from the king’s house to the house of the Lord and sat down in the entry of the New Gate of the Lord’s house. 11 And the priests and the prophets spoke to the princes and all the people, saying, [a]“This man deserves to (L)die! For he has prophesied against this city, as you have heard with your ears.”
12 Then Jeremiah spoke to all the princes and all the people, saying: “The Lord sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city with all the words that you have heard. 13 Now therefore, (M)amend your ways and your doings, and obey the voice of the Lord your God; then the Lord will relent concerning the doom that He has pronounced against you. 14 As for me, here (N)I am, in your hand; do with me as seems good and [b]proper to you. 15 But know for certain that if you put me to death, you will surely bring innocent blood on yourselves, on this city, and on its inhabitants; for truly the Lord has sent me to you to speak all these words in your hearing.”
16 So the princes and all the people said to the priests and the prophets, “This man does not deserve to die. For he has spoken to us in the name of the Lord our God.”
17 (O)Then certain of the elders of the land rose up and spoke to all the assembly of the people, saying: 18 (P)“Micah of Moresheth prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and spoke to all the people of Judah, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts:
(Q)“Zion shall be plowed like a field,
Jerusalem shall become (R)heaps of ruins,
And the mountain of the [c]temple
Like the [d]bare hills of the forest.” ’
19 Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah ever put him to death? (S)Did he not fear the Lord and (T)seek the Lord’s favor? And the Lord (U)relented concerning the doom which He had pronounced against them. (V)But we are doing great evil against ourselves.”
20 Now there was also a man who prophesied in the name of the Lord, Urijah the son of Shemaiah of Kirjath Jearim, who prophesied against this city and against this land according to all the words of Jeremiah. 21 And when Jehoiakim the king, with all his mighty men and all the princes, heard his words, the king sought to put him to death; but when Urijah heard it, he was afraid and fled, and went to Egypt. 22 Then Jehoiakim the king sent men to Egypt: Elnathan the son of Achbor, and other men who went with him to Egypt. 23 And they brought Urijah from Egypt and brought him to Jehoiakim the king, who killed him with the sword and cast his dead body into the graves of the [e]common people.
24 Nevertheless (W)the hand of Ahikam the son of Shaphan was with Jeremiah, so that they should not give him into the hand of the people to put him to death.

Иеремии угрожает смерть
26 В начале правления иудейского царя Иоакима, сына Иосии,[a] было слово от Вечного:
2 – Так говорит Вечный: Встань во дворе храма Вечного и обратись к жителям всех городов Иудеи, которые приходят совершить поклонение в доме Вечного. Скажи им всё, что Я тебе повелю; не пропусти ни слова. 3 Может быть, они послушают и каждый оставит свои злые пути. Тогда Я передумаю и не нашлю беду, которую задумал обрушить на них за их злодеяния. 4 Скажи им: Так говорит Вечный: «Если вы не будете слушать Меня и исполнять Мой Закон, который Я дал вам, 5 если не будете слушаться слов Моих рабов пророков, которых Я посылал к вам снова и снова (хотя вы и не слушали), 6 то Я сделаю с этим домом то же, что Я сделал с Шило,[b] а этот город будет проклят всеми народами земли».
7 Священнослужители, пророки и весь народ слушали, как Иеремия говорил эти слова в доме Вечного. 8 Но едва Иеремия закончил говорить народу всё, что повелел ему сказать Вечный, как священнослужители, пророки и народ схватили его, говоря:
– Ты умрёшь! 9 Зачем ты пророчествуешь во имя Вечного, что этот дом станет, как Шило, а этот город будет разорён и оставлен?
И весь народ столпился вокруг Иеремии в доме Вечного. 10 Когда об этом услышали вожди Иудеи, они пришли из царского дворца в дом Вечного и встали на свои места у входа в Новые ворота дома Вечного. 11 И священнослужители с пророками сказали вождям и всему народу:
– Этого человека следует приговорить к смерти за то, что он пророчествовал против этого города. Вы это слышали своими ушами!
12 Тогда Иеремия сказал всем вождям и всему народу:
– Вечный послал меня пророчествовать против этого дома и города обо всём том, что вы слышали. 13 Исправьте же ныне свои пути, оставьте свои злые деяния и слушайтесь Вечного, вашего Бога. Тогда Вечный передумает и не нашлёт беды, которую Он вам определил. 14 Что же до меня, то я в ваших руках; делайте со мной всё, что покажется вам правильным и справедливым. 15 Но знайте одно: если вы предадите меня смерти, то за невинную кровь ответите и вы сами, и этот город, и его жители, ведь истинно Вечный послал меня сказать вам все эти слова.
16 Тогда вожди и весь народ сказали священнослужителям и пророкам:
– Этого человека не за что приговаривать к смерти! Он говорил нам во имя Вечного, нашего Бога.
17 Некоторые из старейшин страны вышли вперёд и обратились ко всему собранию народа со словами:
18 – Во дни Езекии, царя Иудеи,[c] пророчествовал Михей из Морешета. Он говорил всему народу Иудеи: «Так говорит Вечный, Повелитель Сил:
Сион будет распахан, как поле,
Иерусалим станет грудой развалин,
а храмовая гора зарастёт лесом».[d]
19 Но разве Езекия, царь Иудеи, или кто-то другой в Иудее, предал его смерти? Разве Езекия не убоялся Вечного и не стал искать Его милости? И разве Вечный не передумал насылать беду, которую Он предрёк им? Мы навлекаем на себя страшную беду!
20 (Некто Урия, сын Шемаи, из Кириат-Иеарима тоже пророчествовал во имя Вечного; он предрекал этому городу и стране то же самое, что и Иеремия. 21 Когда царь Иоаким со всеми своими военачальниками и приближёнными услышал его слова, то он хотел казнить Урию. Но Урия услышал об этом и в страхе бежал в Египет. 22 Тогда царь Иоаким снарядил в Египет Элнафана, сына Ахбора, с людьми. 23 Они увели Урию из Египта и доставили к царю Иоакиму, который велел сразить его мечом и бросить тело на общенародном кладбище.)
24 Но Ахикам, сын Шафана,[e] вступился за Иеремию, чтобы его не отдали народу на растерзание.

Jeremiah 26
New International Version
Jeremiah Threatened With Death
26 Early in the reign of Jehoiakim(A) son of Josiah king of Judah, this word came from the Lord: 2 “This is what the Lord says: Stand in the courtyard(B) of the Lord’s house and speak to all the people of the towns of Judah who come to worship in the house of the Lord.(C) Tell(D) them everything I command you; do not omit(E) a word. 3 Perhaps they will listen and each will turn(F) from their evil ways. Then I will relent(G) and not inflict on them the disaster I was planning because of the evil they have done. 4 Say to them, ‘This is what the Lord says: If you do not listen(H) to me and follow my law,(I) which I have set before you, 5 and if you do not listen to the words of my servants the prophets, whom I have sent to you again and again (though you have not listened(J)), 6 then I will make this house like Shiloh(K) and this city a curse[a](L) among all the nations of the earth.’”
7 The priests, the prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah speak these words in the house of the Lord. 8 But as soon as Jeremiah finished telling all the people everything the Lord had commanded(M) him to say, the priests, the prophets and all the people seized(N) him and said, “You must die!(O) 9 Why do you prophesy in the Lord’s name that this house will be like Shiloh and this city will be desolate and deserted?”(P) And all the people crowded(Q) around Jeremiah in the house of the Lord.
10 When the officials(R) of Judah heard about these things, they went up from the royal palace to the house of the Lord and took their places at the entrance of the New Gate(S) of the Lord’s house. 11 Then the priests and the prophets said to the officials and all the people, “This man should be sentenced to death(T) because he has prophesied against this city. You have heard it with your own ears!”(U)
12 Then Jeremiah said to all the officials(V) and all the people: “The Lord sent me to prophesy(W) against this house and this city all the things you have heard.(X) 13 Now reform(Y) your ways and your actions and obey(Z) the Lord your God. Then the Lord will relent(AA) and not bring the disaster he has pronounced against you. 14 As for me, I am in your hands;(AB) do with me whatever you think is good and right. 15 Be assured, however, that if you put me to death, you will bring the guilt of innocent blood(AC) on yourselves and on this city and on those who live in it, for in truth the Lord has sent me to you to speak all these words(AD) in your hearing.”
16 Then the officials(AE) and all the people said to the priests and the prophets, “This man should not be sentenced to death!(AF) He has spoken to us in the name of the Lord our God.”
17 Some of the elders of the land stepped forward and said to the entire assembly of people, 18 “Micah(AG) of Moresheth prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah. He told all the people of Judah, ‘This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“‘Zion(AH) will be plowed like a field,
Jerusalem will become a heap of rubble,(AI)
the temple hill(AJ) a mound overgrown with thickets.’[b](AK)
19 “Did Hezekiah king of Judah or anyone else in Judah put him to death? Did not Hezekiah(AL) fear the Lord and seek(AM) his favor? And did not the Lord relent,(AN) so that he did not bring the disaster(AO) he pronounced against them? We are about to bring a terrible disaster(AP) on ourselves!”
20 (Now Uriah son of Shemaiah from Kiriath Jearim(AQ) was another man who prophesied in the name of the Lord; he prophesied the same things against this city and this land as Jeremiah did. 21 When King Jehoiakim(AR) and all his officers and officials(AS) heard his words, the king was determined to put him to death.(AT) But Uriah heard of it and fled(AU) in fear to Egypt. 22 King Jehoiakim, however, sent Elnathan(AV) son of Akbor to Egypt, along with some other men. 23 They brought Uriah out of Egypt and took him to King Jehoiakim, who had him struck down with a sword(AW) and his body thrown into the burial place of the common people.)(AX)
24 Furthermore, Ahikam(AY) son of Shaphan supported Jeremiah, and so he was not handed over to the people to be put to death.
