Ezekiel 2
1 Og han sagde til mig: Du Menneskesøn! staa paa dine Fødder, at jeg kan tale med dig.
He said to me, “You human, stand up while I speak to you.”
2 Og der kom Aand i mig, der han talte til mig, og den rejste mig op paa mine Fødder; og jeg hørte den, der talte til mig.
While he spoke to me, [God’s] Spirit entered me and enabled me to stand up. Then I heard him speak to me.
3 Og han sagde til mig: Du Menneskesøn! jeg sender dig til Israels Børn, til de frafaldne Folk, som ere faldne fra mig; de og deres Fædre, de have gjort Overtrædelse imod mig indtil denne Dag.
He said, “You human, I will send you to the Israeli people. They are people who have turned away from me and rebelled against me. Their ancestors rebelled against me, and they themselves are still rebelling against me.
4 Og disse Børn, haarde af Ansigt og stive af Hjerte — til dem sender jeg dig; og du skal sige til dem: Saa siger den Herre, Herre:
The people to whom I will send you are very stubborn [DOU]. But say to them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says to you.’
5 Og de, hvad enten de lyde eller lade være (thi de ere et genstridigt Hus), skulle dog vide, at der har været en Profet midt iblandt dem.
[when you tell them my messages], perhaps those rebellious people will heed those messages and perhaps they will not heed them, but they will know [you are] a prophet who has been among them.
6 Og du Menneskesøn! frygt ej for dem, og frygt ej for deres Ord; thi de ere vel Nælder og Torne for dig, og du bor hos Skorpioner, men frygt ej for deres Ord, og lad dig ej forfærde for deres Ansigt; thi de ere et genstridigt Hus.
And you human, you must not be afraid of them or afraid of what they say. [Living among them will be like] living in the midst of briers or scorpions, but do not be afraid of them. They are rebellious people [MTY], but do not allow them to cause you to become afraid.
7 Og du skal tale mine Ord til dem, hvad enten de lyde eller lade være; thi de ere genstridige.
Tell them my message, but do not expect them to pay attention to it, because they [very] rebellious.
8 Men du Menneskesøn! hør, hvad jeg taler til dig: Vær ikke genstridig som det genstridige Hus; oplad din Mund, og æd det, som jeg giver dig.
But human, you must pay attention to what I say. Do not be rebellious like they are. [Now] open your mouth and eat what I give to you.”
9 Og jeg saa, og se, der var en Haand udrakt til mig, og se, der var en Bogrulle i den.
Then, as I watched, I saw his hand that was stretched toward me. In his hand was a scroll.
10 Og han udbredte den for mit Ansigt, og den var beskreven paa begge Sider, og derudi var skrevet Klagemaal og Suk og Ve.
He unrolled the scroll. On both sides of it were written words that expressed sorrow and mourning and words about trouble/disaster.
