2 Mosebog 15
1 Da sang Mose og Israels Børn denne Sang for Herren og sagde: Jeg vil synge for Herren; thi han er højt ophøjet; Hesten og den, som red derpaa, har han nedstyrtet i Havet.
Then Moses and the children of Israel sang this song to the LORD, and said, “I will sing to the LORD, for he has triumphed gloriously. He has thrown the horse and his rider into the sea.
2 Herren er min Styrke og Lovsang, og han blev mig til Frelse; denne er min Gud, og jeg vil prise ham, min Faders Gud, og jeg vil ophøje ham.
The LORD is my strength and song. He has become my salvation [yeshu`ah]. This is my God, and I will praise him; my father’s God, and I will exalt him.
3 Herren er en Krigsmand, „Herre‟ er hans Navn.
The LORD is a man of war. The LORD is his name.
4 Han kastede Faraos Vogne og hans Hær i Havet, og hans udvalgte Høvedsmænd bleve druknede i det røde Hav.
He has cast Pharaoh’s chariots and his army into the sea. His chosen captains are sunk in the Sea of Suf.
5 Afgrundene skjulte dem; de sank ned i de dybe Vande som en Sten.
The deeps cover them. They went down into the depths like a stone.
6 Herre! din højre Haand har vist sig at være herlig med Styrke; Herre! du knuser Fjenden med din højre Haand.
Your right hand, LORD, is glorious in power. Your right hand, LORD, dashes the enemy in pieces.
7 Og du nedstøder dine Modstandere med din store Højhed; du udsender din Vrede, den fortærer dem som Straa.
In the greatness of your excellency, you overthrow those who rise up against you. You send out your wrath. It consumes them as stubble.
8 Og ved din Vredes Vejr ophobedes Vandene, Strømmene stode som en Dynge; Bølgerne stivnede midt i Havet.
With the blast of your nostrils, the waters were piled up. The floods stood upright as a heap. The deeps were congealed in the heart of the sea.
9 Fjenden sagde: Jeg vil forfølge, gribe, dele Rovet; min Sjæl skal stille sin Lyst paa dem, jeg vil uddrage mit Sværd, min Haand skal udrydde dem.
The enemy said, ‘I will pursue. I will overtake. I will divide the plunder. My desire will be satisfied on them. I will draw my sword. My hand will destroy them.’
10 Du blæste med dit Vejr, Havet skjulte dem; de sank som Bly i de mægtige Vande.
You blew with your wind. The sea covered them. They sank like lead in the mighty waters.
11 Hvo er som du iblandt Guderne, Herre? hvo er som du, herlig bevist i Hellighed, forfærdelig at berømme, underfuld i Gerning!
Who is like you, LORD, among the gods? Who is like you, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?
12 Du udrakte din højre Haand, Jorden opslugte dem.
You stretched out your right hand. The earth swallowed them.
13 Du har ved din Miskundhed ført dette Folk, som du har genløst; du ledsagede dem med din Kraft til din Helligheds Bolig.
“You, in your loving kindness, have led the people that you have redeemed. You have guided them in your strength to your holy habitation.
14 Folkene hørte det, de bævede; Angest betog dem, som bo i Palæstina.
The peoples have heard. They tremble. Pangs have taken hold of the inhabitants of Philistia.
15 Da forfærdedes Edoms Fyrster, Bæven betog de vældige i Moab, alle Indbyggere i Kanaan bleve mistrøstige.
Then the chiefs of Edom were dismayed. Trembling takes hold of the mighty men of Moab. All the inhabitants of Canaan have melted away.
16 Forfærdelse og Frygt skal falde over dem, ved din Arms Magt skulle de blive tavse som en Sten, indtil dit Folk, Herre! kommer over, til det Folk kommer over, som du har forhvervet.
Terror and dread falls on them. By the greatness of your arm they are as still as a stone, until your people pass over, LORD, until the people you have purchased pass over.
17 Du skal føre dem ind og plante dem paa din Arvs Bjerg; du har gjort en Bolig, hvori du vil bo, o Herre! en Helligdom, Herre! har dine Hænder beredt.
You will bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of your inheritance, the place, LORD, which you have made for yourself to dwell in: the sanctuary, Lord, which your hands have established.
18 Herren skal regere evindelig og altid.
The LORD will reign forever and ever.”
19 Thi Faraos Heste droge ind med hans Vogne og hans Ryttere i Havet, og Herren lod Havets Vande komme tilbage over dem; men Israels Børn gik paa det tørre midt igennem Havet.
For the horses of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the LORD brought back the waters of the sea on them; but the children of Israel walked on dry land in the middle of the sea.
20 Og Maria, den Profetinde, Arons Søster, tog en Pauke i sin Haand; og alle Kvinder gik ud efter hende med Pauker og Dans.
Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a tambourine in her hand; and all the women went out after her with tambourines and with dances.
21 Og Maria svarede dem: Synger for Herren, thi han er højt ophøjet; Hesten og den, som red derpaa, har han nedstyrtet i Havet.
Miriam answered them, “Sing to the LORD, for he has triumphed gloriously. He has thrown the horse and his rider into the sea.”
22 Og Mose lod Israel drage frem fra det røde Hav, og de droge ud til den Ørk Sur, og de vandrede tre Dage i Ørkenen og fandt ikke Vand.
Moses led Israel onward from the Sea of Suf, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.
23 Saa kom de til Mara; men de kunde ikke drikke Vandet i Mara, thi det var besk; derfor kaldte han dens Navn Mara.
When they came to Marah, they couldn’t drink from the waters of Marah, for they were bitter. Therefore its name was called Marah.
24 Da knurrede Folket imod Mose og sagde: Hvad skulle vi drikke?
The people murmured against Moses, saying, “What shall we drink?”
25 Saa raabte han til Herren, og Herren viste ham et Træ, og han kastede det i Vandet, og saa blev Vandet sødt. Der satte han dem Lov og Ret, og der forsøgte han dem.
Then he cried to the LORD. The LORD showed him a tree, and he threw it into the waters, and the waters were made sweet. There he made a statute and an ordinance for them, and there he tested them.
26 Og han sagde: Om du flitteligen hører Herren din Guds Røst, og gør det, som Ret er for hans Øjne, og vender dine Øren til hans Bud og holder alle hans Befalinger, da vil jeg ikke lægge paa dig nogen af de Sygdomme, som jeg lagde paa Ægypterne; thi jeg er Herren, som læger dig.
He said, “If you will diligently listen to the LORD your God’s voice, and will do that which is right in his eyes, and will pay attention to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have put on the Egyptians; for I am the LORD who heals you.”
27 Og de kom til Elim, og der var tolv Vandkilder og halvfjerdsindstyve Palmetræer; og der lejrede de sig ved Vandet.
They came to Elim, where there were twelve springs of water and seventy palm trees. They encamped there by the waters.
