Ezekiel 12
1 Og Herrens Ord kom til mig saaledes:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 Du Menneskesøn! du bor midt i det genstridige Hus, hos dem, som have Øjne at se med og se ikke, have Øren at høre med og høre ikke; thi de ere et genstridigt Hus.
“Son of man, you live in the midst of a provoking house. They have eyes to see, and they do not see; and ears to hear, and they do not hear. For they are a provoking house.
3 Derfor, du Menneskesøn! skaf dig Rejsetøj, og flyt ud om Dagen for deres Øjne; og flyt fra dit Sted til et andet Sted for deres Øjne, om de maaske vilde se det; thi de ere et genstridigt Hus.
As for you, then, son of man, prepare for yourself the supplies for traveling far away, and travel away in the daytime in their sight. And you shall travel from your place to another place in their sight, so that perhaps they may consider it. For they are a provoking house.
4 Og du skal bringe dit Tøj ud som Rejsetøj om Dagen for deres Øjne; og du skal drage ud om Aftenen for deres Øjne, ligesom man drager ud, naar man vil udvandre.
And you shall carry your supplies outside, like the supplies of one who is traveling far away, in the daytime in their sight. Then you shall go forth in the evening in their presence, just as one goes forth who is moving far away.
5 Du skal bryde dig Hul igennem Væggen for deres Øjne og føre det ud der igennem.
Dig for yourself through the wall, before their eyes. And you shall go out through it.
6 Du skal tage det paa Skulderen for deres Øjne og føre det ud, naar det er mørkt; Du skal tilhylle dit Ansigt og ikke se Landet; thi jeg har sat dig til et Undertegn for Israels Hus.
In their sight, you shall be carried on shoulders, you shall be carried in the dark. You shall cover your face, and you shall not see the ground. For I have appointed you as a portent for the house of Israel.”
7 Og jeg gjorde saaledes, som mig var befalet; jeg bar mit Tøj ud som Rejsetøj om Dagen; og om Aftenen brød jeg mig Hul igennem Væggen med Haanden; i Mørket førte jeg det ud, jeg tog det paa Skulderen for deres Øjne.
Therefore, I did just as he had instructed me. I brought out my supplies in the daytime, like the supplies of one who is moving far away. And in the evening, I dug myself through the wall by hand. And I went out in the dark, and I was carried on shoulders, in their sight.
8 Og Herrens Ord kom til mig om Morgenen, saaledes:
And the word of the Lord came to me, in the morning, saying:
9 Du Menneskesøn! har ikke Israels Hus, det genstridige Hus, sagt til dig, hvad gør du?
“Son of man, has not the house of Israel, the provoking house, said to you: ‘What are you doing?’
10 Sig til dem: Saa siger den Herre. Herre: Denne Byrde gælder Fyrsten i Jerusalem og hele Israels Hus, iblandt hvilke disse ere.
Say to them: Thus says the Lord God: This is the burden concerning my leader who is in Jerusalem, and concerning the entire house of Israel, who are in their midst.
11 Sig: Jeg er et Undertegn for eder; som jeg har gjort, saaledes skal der gøres ved dem: De skulle bortføres, de skulle gaa i Fangenskab.
Say: I am your portent. Just as I have done, so shall it be done to them. They will be taken captive and moved far away.
12 Og Fyrsten, som er midt iblandt dem, skal læsse paa Skulderen i Mørket og vandre ud; igennem Væggen skulle de bryde Hul for at føre det ud der igennem; han skal tilhylle sit Ansigt, paa det han ikke skal se Landet med sine Øjne.
And the leader who is in their midst will be carried on shoulders; he will go forth in darkness. They will dig through the wall, so that they may lead him away. His face will be covered, so that he may not see the land with his eye.
13 Og jeg vil udbrede mit Garn over ham, og han skal fanges i mit Net; og jeg vil føre ham til Babel, til Kaldæernes Land; men dette skal han ikke skue, og han skal dø der.
And I will extend my net over him, and he will be captured in my dragnet. And I will lead him to Babylon, into the land of the Chaldeans, but he himself will not see it. And there he shall die.
14 Og alt, hvad der er trindt omkring ham, hans Hjælp og alle hans Hære, vil jeg sprede for alle Vinde og uddrage Sværdet efter dem.
And all who are around him, his guards and his companies, I will scatter into every wind. And I will unsheathe the sword after them.
15 Saa skulle de fornemme, at jeg er Herren, naar jeg adspreder dem iblandt Hedningerne og udstrør dem over Landene.
And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have dispersed them among the Gentiles, and will have sowed them among the lands.
16 Men jeg vil lade nogle faa Folk af dem blive tilovers fra Sværd, fra Hunger og fra Pest, for at de skulle fortælle alle deres Vederstyggeligheder iblandt Hedningerne, hvor de komme hen, og de skulle fornemme, at jeg er Herren.
And I will leave behind a few men of them, apart from the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence, so that they may declare all their wicked deeds among the Gentiles, to whom they will go. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”
17 Og Herrens Ord kom til mig saaledes:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
18 Du Menneskesøn! du skal æde dit Brød med Bæven og drikke Vand med Uro og med Bekymring.
“Son of man, eat your bread in consternation. Moreover, drink your water hurriedly and in sorrow.
19 Og du skal sige til Folket i Landet: Saa siger den Herre, Herre til Jerusalems Indbyggere i Israels Land: De skulle æde deres Brød med Bekymring og drikke Vand med Forskrækkelse, fordi deres Land bliver øde og mister sin Fylde, formedelst alle dets Indbyggeres Voldsgerning.
And say to the people of the land: Thus says the Lord God, to those who are living in Jerusalem, in the land of Israel: They shall eat their bread in anxiety, and drink their water in desolation, so that the land may be desolate before its multitude, because of the iniquity of all who are living in it.
20 Og Stæderne, som ere beboede, skulle ødelægges, og Landet vorde øde; og I skulle fornemme, at jeg er Herren.
And cities that are now inhabited will become desolate, and the land will be forsaken. And you shall know that I am the Lord.”
21 Og Herrens Ord kom til mig saaledes:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
22 Du Menneskesøn! hvad er dette for et Ordsprog, I have i Israels Land, naar der siges: Dagene trække ud, og ethvert Syn bliver til intet?
“Son of man, what is this proverb that you have in the land of Israel? saying: ‘The days shall be extended in length, and every vision shall perish.’
23 Derfor sig til dem: Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Jeg vil lade dette Ordsprog høre op, og de skulle ikke ydermere bruge det som et Ordsprog i Israel; men sig til dem: Dagene ere nær, og hvad hvert Syn udsiger.
Therefore, say to them: Thus says the Lord God: I will cause this proverb to cease, and it shall no longer be a common saying in Israel. And tell them that the days are approaching, and the word of every vision.
24 Thi der skal ikke ydermere være noget tomt Syn eller nogen falsk Spaadom i Israels Hus.
For there shall no longer be any empty visions, nor any ambiguous divination in the midst of the sons of Israel.
25 Thi jeg er Herren, jeg taler det Ord, som jeg taler, og det skal ske, det skal ej forhales længere; thi i eders Dage, du genstridige Hus! taler jeg et Ord og fuldkommer det, siger den Herre, Herre.
For I, the Lord, will speak. And whatever word I will speak, it shall be done, and it shall not be delayed any more. Instead, in your days, O provoking house, I will speak a word and do it, says the Lord God.”
26 Og Herrens Ord kom til mig saaledes:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
27 Du Menneskesøn! se, Israels Hus siger: Det Syn, som denne ser, skal ske efter mange Aar, og han spaar om Tider, som ere langt borte.
“Son of man, behold the house of Israel, those who are saying: ‘The visions that this one sees is many days away,’ and, ‘This man prophesies about times that are far away.’
28 Derfor sig til dem: Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Der skal ikke eet af alle mine Ord forhales længere; det Ord, som jeg taler, det skal og ske, siger den Herre, Herre.
Because of this, say to them: Thus says the Lord God: No word of mine will be delayed any longer. The word that I will speak will be fulfilled, says the Lord God.”
