Jeremía 1
Icelandic Bible
1 Ræður Jeremía Hilkíasonar, er var einn af prestunum í Anatót í Benjamínslandi,
2 en til hans kom orð Drottins á dögum Jósía Amónssonar, konungs í Júda, á þrettánda ríkisári hans.
3 Og það kom enn fremur á dögum Jójakíms Jósíasonar, konungs í Júda, allt til ársloka hins ellefta árs Sedekía Jósíasonar, konungs í Júda, allt til herleiðingar Jerúsalembúa í fimmta mánuðinum.
4 Orð Drottins kom til mín:
5 Áður en ég myndaði þig í móðurlífi, útvaldi ég þig, og áður en þú komst af móðurkviði, helgaði ég þig. Ég hefi ákvarðað þig til að vera spámann þjóðanna!
6 Þá sagði ég: Æ, herra Drottinn! Sjá, ég kann ekki að tala, því að ég er enn svo ungur.
7 En Drottinn sagði við mig: Seg ekki: "Ég er enn svo ungur!" heldur skalt þú fara til allra, sem ég sendi þig til, og tala allt það, er ég býð þér.
8 Þú skalt ekki óttast þá, því að ég er með þér til þess að frelsa þig! _ segir Drottinn.
9 Því næst rétti Drottinn út hönd sína og snart munn minn. Og Drottinn sagði við mig: Sjá, ég legg orð mín þér í munn.
10 Sjá þú, ég set þig í dag yfir þjóðirnar og yfir konungsríkin til þess að uppræta og umturna, eyða og rífa niður, byggja og gróðursetja!
11 Orð Drottins kom til mín: Hvað sér þú, Jeremía? Ég svaraði: Ég sé möndluviðargrein.
12 En Drottinn sagði við mig: Þú hefir séð rétt, því að ég vaki yfir orði mínu til þess að framkvæma það.
13 Þá kom orð Drottins til mín annað sinn: Hvað sér þú? Ég svaraði: Ég sé sjóðandi pott, og snýr hann framhliðinni að oss úr norðri.
14 Þá sagði Drottinn við mig: Úr norðri mun ógæfan koma sjóðandi yfir alla íbúa landsins.
15 Því sjá, ég kalla allar ættkvíslir ríkjanna í norðri _ Drottinn segir það _, til þess að þeir komi og reisi hver og einn upp hásæti sitt úti fyrir hliðum Jerúsalem og gegn öllum múrum hennar hringinn í kring og gegn öllum borgum í Júda.
16 Og ég mun kveða upp dóma mína yfir þeim, vegna allrar illsku þeirra, að þeir hafa yfirgefið mig og fært öðrum guðum reykelsisfórnir og fallið fram fyrir handaverkum sínum.
17 En gyrð þú lendar þínar, statt upp og tala til þeirra allt, sem ég býð þér. Vertu ekki hræddur við þá, til þess að ég gjöri þig ekki hræddan frammi fyrir þeim.
18 Sjá, ég gjöri þig í dag að rammbyggðri borg og að járnsúlu og að eirveggjum gegn öllu landinu, gegn Júdakonungunum, gegn höfðingjum þess, gegn prestum þess og gegn öllum landslýðnum,
19 og þótt þeir berjist gegn þér, þá munu þeir eigi fá yfirstigið þig, því að ég er með þér til þess að frelsa þig _ Drottinn segir það.

Jeremiah 1
New International Version
1 The words of Jeremiah son of Hilkiah, one of the priests at Anathoth(A) in the territory of Benjamin. 2 The word of the Lord came(B) to him in the thirteenth year of the reign of Josiah(C) son of Amon king of Judah, 3 and through the reign of Jehoiakim(D) son of Josiah king of Judah, down to the fifth month of the eleventh year of Zedekiah(E) son of Josiah king of Judah, when the people of Jerusalem went into exile.(F)
The Call of Jeremiah
4 The word of the Lord came to me, saying,
5 “Before I formed you in the womb(G) I knew[a](H) you,
before you were born(I) I set you apart;(J)
I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.(K)”
6 “Alas, Sovereign Lord,” I said, “I do not know how to speak;(L) I am too young.”(M)
7 But the Lord said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am too young.’ You must go to everyone I send you to and say whatever I command you. 8 Do not be afraid(N) of them, for I am with you(O) and will rescue(P) you,” declares the Lord.(Q)
9 Then the Lord reached out his hand and touched(R) my mouth and said to me, “I have put my words in your mouth.(S) 10 See, today I appoint you over nations(T) and kingdoms to uproot(U) and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant.”(V)
11 The word of the Lord came to me: “What do you see, Jeremiah?”(W)
“I see the branch of an almond tree,” I replied.
12 The Lord said to me, “You have seen correctly, for I am watching[b](X) to see that my word is fulfilled.”
13 The word of the Lord came to me again: “What do you see?”(Y)
“I see a pot that is boiling,” I answered. “It is tilting toward us from the north.”
14 The Lord said to me, “From the north(Z) disaster will be poured out on all who live in the land. 15 I am about to summon all the peoples of the northern kingdoms,” declares the Lord.
“Their kings will come and set up their thrones
in the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem;
they will come against all her surrounding walls
and against all the towns of Judah.(AA)
16 I will pronounce my judgments(AB) on my people
because of their wickedness(AC) in forsaking me,(AD)
in burning incense to other gods(AE)
and in worshiping(AF) what their hands have made.(AG)
17 “Get yourself ready! Stand up and say(AH) to them whatever I command you. Do not be terrified(AI) by them, or I will terrify you before them. 18 Today I have made you(AJ) a fortified city, an iron pillar and a bronze wall to stand against the whole land—against the kings of Judah, its officials, its priests and the people of the land. 19 They will fight against you but will not overcome(AK) you, for I am with you(AL) and will rescue(AM) you,” declares the Lord.

1 The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests that were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin:
2 To whom the word of the Lord came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign.
3 It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, unto the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah king of Judah, unto the carrying away of Jerusalem captive in the fifth month.
4 Then the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
6 Then said I, Ah, Lord God! behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child.
7 But the Lord said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak.
8 Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the Lord.
9 Then the Lord put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the Lord said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth.
10 See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.
11 Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, Jeremiah, what seest thou? And I said, I see a rod of an almond tree.
12 Then said the Lord unto me, Thou hast well seen: for I will hasten my word to perform it.
13 And the word of the Lord came unto me the second time, saying, What seest thou? And I said, I see a seething pot; and the face thereof is toward the north.
14 Then the Lord said unto me, Out of the north an evil shall break forth upon all the inhabitants of the land.
15 For, lo, I will call all the families of the kingdoms of the north, saith the Lord; and they shall come, and they shall set every one his throne at the entering of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all the walls thereof round about, and against all the cities of Judah.
16 And I will utter my judgments against them touching all their wickedness, who have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, and worshipped the works of their own hands.
17 Thou therefore gird up thy loins, and arise, and speak unto them all that I command thee: be not dismayed at their faces, lest I confound thee before them.
18 For, behold, I have made thee this day a defenced city, and an iron pillar, and brasen walls against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, against the princes thereof, against the priests thereof, and against the people of the land.
19 And they shall fight against thee; but they shall not prevail against thee; for I am with thee, saith the Lord, to deliver thee.
