1 I Darius', Ahasverus' sønns første regjeringsår - han som var av medisk ætt og var blitt konge over kaldeerriket

2 i det første år av hans regjering la jeg, Daniel, i bøkene merke til tallet på de år som Herren hadde talt om til profeten Jeremias - at han vilde la fulle sytti år gå til ende mens Jerusalem lå i ruiner.

3 Da vendte jeg mitt ansikt til Gud Herren for å søke ham med bønn og ydmyke begjæringer under faste og i sekk og aske.

4 Og jeg bad til Herren min Gud og bekjente og sa: Akk, Herre, du store og forferdelige Gud, som holder din pakt og bevarer miskunnhet mot dem som elsker dig og holder dine bud!

5 Vi har syndet og gjort ille og vært ugudelige og satt oss op imot dig; vi har veket av fra dine bud og dine lover.

6 Vi hørte ikke på dine tjenere, profetene, som talte i ditt navn til våre konger, våre fyrster og våre fedre og til alt folket i landet.

7 Dig, Herre, hører rettferdigheten til, men oss vårt ansikts blygsel, som det sees på denne dag - oss, Judas menn og Jerusalems innbyggere og hele Israel, både dem som er nær, og dem som er langt borte, i alle de land som du har drevet dem bort til for den troløshets skyld som de har vist mot dig.

8 Herre! Oss hører vårt ansikts blygsel til, våre konger, våre fyrster og våre fedre, fordi vi har syndet mot dig.

9 Hos Herren vår Gud er barmhjertighet og forlatelse. For vi har satt oss op imot ham,

10 og vi hørte ikke på Herrens, vår Guds røst og fulgte ikke hans lover, som han forela oss ved sine tjenere, profetene;

11 men hele Israel overtrådte din lov og vek av fra dig og hørte ikke på din røst; derfor blev den utøst over oss den forbannelse som han hadde svoret å sende, og som står skrevet i Mose, Guds tjeners lov; for vi hadde syndet mot ham,

12 og han opfylte de ord som han hadde talt mot oss og mot våre dommere, som dømte oss, og han lot så stor en ulykke komme over oss at det ikke under hele himmelen har hendt noget sådant som det som har hendt i Jerusalem.

13 Efter det som skrevet står i Mose lov, kom all denne ulykke over oss; men vi bønnfalt ikke Herren vår Gud og vendte ikke om fra våre misgjerninger og aktet ikke på din sannhet.

14 Derfor hadde Herren ulykken stadig for øie og lot den komme over oss; for Herren vår Gud er rettferdig i alt det han gjør, men vi hørte ikke på hans røst.

15 Og nu, Herre vår Gud, du som førte ditt folk ut av Egyptens land med sterk hånd og gjorde dig et navn, som det er på denne dag! Vi har syndet, vi har vært ugudelige.

16 Herre! La efter alle dine rettferdige gjerninger din vrede og harme vende sig bort fra din stad Jerusalem, ditt hellige berg! For på grunn av våre synder og våre fedres misgjerninger er Jerusalem og ditt folk blitt til spott for alle dem som bor omkring oss.

17 Hør nu, vår Gud, på din tjeners bønn og hans ydmyke begjæringer og la ditt åsyn lyse over din ødelagte helligdom - for din egen skyld, Herre!

18 Vend, min Gud, ditt øre hit og hør! Oplat dine øine og se våre ruiner og staden som er kalt med ditt navn! For ikke på våre rettferdige gjerninger grunner vi våre ydmyke begjæringer, som vi bærer frem for ditt åsyn, men på din store barmhjertighet.

19 Herre, hør! Herre, forlat! Herre, gi akt og gjør det og dryg ikke - for din egen skyld, min Gud! For din stad og ditt folk er kalt med ditt navn.

20 Mens jeg ennu talte og bad og bekjente min synd og mitt folk Israels synd og bar min bønn for min Guds hellige berg frem for Herrens, min Guds åsyn -

21 mens jeg ennu talte i bønnen, da kom Gabriel, den mann som jeg før hadde sett i synet, dengang jeg blev så rent avmektig, og rørte ved mig - det var på aftenofferets tid.

22 Og han lærte mig og talte til mig og sa: Daniel! Nu er jeg kommet hit for å lære dig å forstå.

23 Med det samme du begynte å frembære dine ydmyke bønner, kom det et ord, og nu er jeg kommet for å kunngjøre dig det; for du er høit elsket; så merk dig nu ordet og gi akt på synet!

24 Sytti uker* er tilmålt ditt folk og din hellige stad til å innelukke frafallet og til å forsegle synder og til å dekke over misgjerning og til å føre frem en evig rettferdighet** og til å besegle syn og profet*** og til å salve et Aller-helligste****. / {* Med uke menes her et tidsrum av syv år.} / {** om 3, 21 fg.} / {*** MTT 5, 17. APO 3, 18.} / {**** Kristus; M K 1, 24. LUK 1, 35.}

25 Og du skal vite og forstå: Fra den tid ordet utgår om å gjenreise og ombygge Jerusalem, inntil en salvet*, en fyrste, står frem, skal det gå syv uker og to og seksti uker; det skal igjen settes i stand og opbygges med gater og vollgraver, men under tidenes trengsel**. / {* Kristus.} / {** NEH 2, 7-9; 3, 1 fg. 4, 9 fg.}

26 Og efter de to og seksti uker skal den salvede utryddes* og intet ha**, og staden og helligdommen skal en kommende fyrstes folk ødelegge, og enden på det er oversvømmelse, og inntil enden er det krig; ødeleggelse er fast besluttet. / {* JES 53, 8.} / {** intet herredømme; MTT 26, 56.}

27 Og én uke skal gjøre pakten* fast for de mange; og i midten av uken skal slaktoffer og matoffer ophøre**, og på vederstyggelighetenes vinger skal ødeleggeren komme***, og det inntil tilintetgjørelse og fast besluttet straffedom strømmer ned over den som ødelegges. / {* HEB 7, 22; 8, 6. MTT 26, 28.} / {** HEB 10, 9.} / {*** DNL 8, 13. MTT 24, 15.}

9680. 'And let the veil be for you a divider between the holy place and the holy of holies' means between spiritual good - which is the good of charity towards the neighbour and the good of faith in the Lord - and celestial good, which is the good of love to the Lord and the good of mutual love. This is clear from the meaning of 'the holy place' as the good reigning in the middle heaven; and from the meaning of 'the holy of holies' as the good reigning in the inmost heaven. The fact that the latter good is the good of love to the Lord and the good of mutual love, and that the former good - the good reigning in the middle heaven - is the good of charity towards the neighbour and the good of faith in the Lord, is evident from all that has been shown in the places referred to in 9670 regarding both kinds of good, celestial and spiritual. The good of love to the Lord in the inmost heaven is the internal good there, while the good of mutual love is the external good there; but the good of charity towards the neighbour is the internal good in the middle heaven, and the good of faith in the Lord is the external good there. In both heavens there is an internal and an external, as there is in the Church. Regarding the Church, that this is internal and external, see 409, 1083, 1098, 1238, 1242, 4899, 6380, 6587, 7840, 8762, 9375.

[2] All good is holy, and so is all truth to the extent that it has good within it. Good is said to be holy and from the Lord because the Lord alone is holy and He it is from whom all good and all truth come, 9229, 9479. From this it is evident why the dwelling-place is called the holy place and the ark containing the Testimony is called the holy of holies. For the Testimony is the Lord Himself in respect of Divine Truth, 9503, and the ark is the inmost heaven where the Lord is, 9485. The Lord is indeed present in the middle heaven, but more immediately so in the inmost heaven. For those who have been joined to the Lord through the good of love are with Him, whereas those who have been joined to the Lord through the truth of faith are indeed with Him, but more remotely. In the middle heaven they are joined to the Lord through faith implanted in the good of charity towards the neighbour. From all this it evident why the dwelling-place outside the veil is called the holy place and the dwelling-place inside the veil is called the holy of holies.

[3] The fact that the Lord is the Source of everything holy and that He is the real 'Holy of Holies' is clear in Daniel,

Seventy weeks have been decreed concerning your 1 people, to anoint the Holy of Holies. 2 Daniel 9:24.

And in the Book of Revelation,

Who is not going to fear You, O Lord, and glorify Your name? For You alone are holy. Revelation 15:4.

Therefore also the Lord is called the Holy One of Israel in Isaiah 1:4; 5:19, 24; 10:20; 12:6; 17:7; 29:19; 30:11-12, 15; 31:1; 37:23; 41:14, 16, 20; 43:3, 14; 45:11; 60:9, 14; Jeremiah 50:29; 51:5; Ezekiel 39:7; Psalms 71:22; 78:41; 89:18; 2 Kings 19:22; and elsewhere. Anything whatever therefore among the children of Israel which represented the Lord, or the goodness and truth that emanate from Him, was called holy once it had been dedicated, because the Lord alone is holy. The Holy Spirit in the Word is also that which is holy, emanating from the Lord.

Jeremiah 44

पढाई करना

   

1 The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews who lived in the land of Egypt, who lived at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Memphis, and in the country of Pathros, saying,

2 Thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel: You have seen all the evil that I have brought on Jerusalem, and on all the cities of Judah; and behold, this day they are a desolation, and no man dwells therein,

3 because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in that they went to burn incense, [and] to serve other gods, that they didn't know, neither they, nor you, nor your fathers.

4 However I sent to you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, Oh, don't do this abominable thing that I hate.

5 But they didn't listen, nor inclined their ear to turn from their wickedness, to burn no incense to other gods.

6 Therefore my wrath and my anger was poured forth, and was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are wasted and desolate, as it is this day.

7 Therefore now thus says Yahweh, the God of Armies, the God of Israel: Why do you commit great evil against your own souls, to cut off from yourselves man and woman, infant and nursing child out of the midst of Judah, to leave yourselves none remaining;

8 in that you provoke me to anger with the works of your hands, burning incense to other gods in the land of Egypt, where you have gone to live; that you may be cut off, and that you may be a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth?

9 Have you forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives which they committed in the land of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem?

10 They are not humbled even to this day, neither have they feared, nor walked in my law, nor in my statutes, that I set before you and before your fathers.

11 Therefore thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel: Behold, I will set my face against you for evil, even to cut off all Judah.

12 I will take the remnant of Judah, that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt to live there, and they shall all be consumed; in the land of Egypt shall they fall; they shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine; they shall die, from the least even to the greatest, by the sword and by the famine; and they shall be an object of horror, [and] an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach.

13 For I will punish those who dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have punished Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence;

14 so that none of the remnant of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt to live there, shall escape or be left, to return into the land of Judah, to which they have a desire to return to dwell there: for none shall return save such as shall escape.

15 Then all the men who knew that their wives burned incense to other gods, and all the women who stood by, a great assembly, even all the people who lived in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying,

16 As for the word that you have spoken to us in the name of Yahweh, we will not listen to you.

17 But we will certainly perform every word that is gone forth out of our mouth, to burn incense to the queen of the sky, and to pour out drink offerings to her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings and our princes, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem; for then had we plenty of food, and were well, and saw no evil.

18 But since we left off burning incense to the queen of the sky, and pouring out drink offerings to her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine.

19 When we burned incense to the queen of the sky, and poured out drink offerings to her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink offerings to her, without our husbands?

20 Then Jeremiah said to all the people, to the men, and to the women, even to all the people who had given him an answer, saying,

21 The incense that you burned in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and your fathers, your kings and your princes, and the people of the land, didn't Yahweh remember them, and didn't it come into his mind?

22 so that Yahweh could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which you have committed; therefore your land has become a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without inhabitant, as it is this day.

23 Because you have burned incense, and because you have sinned against Yahweh, and have not obeyed the voice of Yahweh, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil has happened to you, as it is this day.

24 Moreover Jeremiah said to all the people, and to all the women, Hear the word of Yahweh, all Judah who are in the land of Egypt:

25 Thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, saying, You and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and with your hands have fulfilled it, saying, We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of the sky, and to pour out drink offerings to her: establish then your vows, and perform your vows.

26 Therefore hear the word of Yahweh, all Judah who dwell in the land of Egypt: Behold, I have sworn by my great name, says Yahweh, that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, As the Lord Yahweh lives.

27 Behold, I watch over them for evil, and not for good; and all the men of Judah who are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until there be an end of them.

28 Those who escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah, few in number; and all the remnant of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt to live there, shall know whose word shall stand, mine, or theirs.

29 This shall be the sign to you, says Yahweh, that I will punish you in this place, that you may know that my words shall surely stand against you for evil:

30 Thus says Yahweh, Behold, I will give Pharaoh Hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of those who seek his life; as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, who was his enemy, and sought his life.
