Bybel in Afrikaans (1983-vertaling)

Vra na die ou paaie. Vra watter pad die beste is en loop dit, dan sal julle rus vind.

Jeremia 6:16

Jesus sê:

Kom na My toe, almal wat uitgeput en oorlaai is, en Ek sal julle rus gee.

Matteus 11:28

Jeremia 6 (Bybel in Afrikaans (1983-vertaling))

13 Almal, klein en groot, wil hulleself net verryk, almal, selfs profete en priesters, is uit op bedrog.
14 Hulle het 'n goedkoop raat vir die wonde van my volk. Hulle sê net: "Alles is reg! Alles is reg!" Maar niks is reg nie.
15 Wanneer hulle aan die kaak gestel word oor die gruwelike dinge wat hulle gedoen het, skaam hulle hulle nie eens nie, hulle weet nie van skaamte nie. Daarom sal hulle tot 'n val kom soos al die ander voor hulle; wanneer Ek hulle straf, sal hulle omkom, sê die Here.
16 So sê die Here: Staan by die kruispaaie en kyk, en vra na die ou paaie. Vra watter pad die beste is en loop dit, dan sal julle rus vind. Maar hulle het gesê: "Ons sal nie daardie pad loop nie."
17 Toe het Ek wagte oor julle aangestel en gesê: Luister na die ramshoring! Maar hulle het geantwoord: "Ons sal nie luister nie."
18 Daarom moet julle luister, nasies, en kyk wat met hulle gaan gebeur.
19 Luister, aarde! Ek bring onheil oor hierdie volk, hulle sal die vrugte pluk van hulle planne, want hulle het hulle nie aan my woorde gesteur nie, hulle het verwerp wat Ek hulle geleer het.

Matteus 11 (Bybel in Afrikaans (1983-vertaling))

25 Daardie tyd het Jesus gesê: "Ek prys U, Vader, Here van hemel en aarde, dat U hierdie dinge vir slim en geleerde mense verberg het en dit aan eenvoudiges bekend gemaak het.
26 Ja, Vader, so was dit u genadige bedoeling.
27 "My Vader het alles aan My toevertrou, en niemand ken die Seun nie, behalwe die Vader; en ook ken niemand die Vader nie, behalwe die Seun en elkeen aan wie die Seun Hom wil bekend maak.
28 "Kom na My toe, almal wat uitgeput en oorlaai is, en Ek sal julle rus gee.
29 Neem my juk op julle en leer van My, want Ek is sagmoedig en nederig van hart, en julle sal rus kry vir julle gemoed.
30 My juk is sag en my las is lig."

English Standard Version

Ask for the ancient paths, where the good way is; and walk in it, and find rest for your souls.

Jeremiah 6:16

Jesus says:

Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Matthew 11:28

Jeremia 6 (English Standard Version)

13 “For from the least to the greatest of them,
everyone is greedy for unjust gain;
and from prophet to priest,
everyone deals falsely.
14 They have healed the wound of my people lightly,
saying, ‘Peace, peace,’
when there is no peace.
15 Were they ashamed when they committed abomination?
No, they were not at all ashamed;
they did not know how to blush.
Therefore they shall fall among those who fall;
at the time that I punish them, they shall be overthrown,”
says the Lord.
16 Thus says the Lord:
“Stand by the roads, and look,
and ask for the ancient paths,
where the good way is; and walk in it,
and find rest for your souls.
But they said, ‘We will not walk in it.’
17 I set watchmen over you, saying,
‘Pay attention to the sound of the trumpet!’
But they said, ‘We will not pay attention.’
18 Therefore hear, O nations,
and know, O congregation, what will happen to them.
19 Hear, O earth; behold, I am bringing disaster upon this people,
the fruit of their devices,
because they have not paid attention to my words;
and as for my law, they have rejected it.

Matteus 11 (English Standard Version)

25 At that time Jesus declared,
“I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to little children;
26 yes, Father, for such was your gracious will.
27 All things have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.
28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
