Ezekiel 3

1 Og han sagde til mig: Du Menneskesøn! æd det, som du her modtager; æd denne Rulle, og gak hen, tal til Israels Hus.

And He says to me, “Son of man, eat that which you find, eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel.”

2 Og jeg oplod min Mund, og han gav mig denne Rulle at æde.

And I open my mouth, and He causes me to eat this scroll.

3 Og han sagde til mig: Du Menneskesøn! Du skal bespise din Bug og fylde dine Indvolde med denne Rulle, som jeg giver dig; og jeg aad, og den var sød i min Mund som Honning.

And He says to me, “Son of man, feed your belly, and fill your bowels with this scroll that I am giving to you”; and I eat it, and it is as honey for sweetness in my mouth.

4 Og han sagde til mig: Du Menneskesøn! gak hen, kom til Israels Hus, og tal mine Ord til dem!

And He says to me, “Son of man, go forth, go to the house of Israel, and you have spoken to them with My words.

5 Thi du er ikke sendt til et Folk med et uforstaaeligt og vanskeligt Tungemaal, men til Israels Hus;

For you [are] not sent to a people deep of lip and heavy of tongue—to the house of Israel;

6 ikke til mange Folk med et uforstaaeligt og vanskeligt Tungemaal, hvis Ord du ikke kan forstaa; men jeg sender dig til dem, som kunne forstaa dig.

not to many peoples, deep of lip and heavy of tongue, whose words you do not understand. If I had not sent you to them—they listen to you,

7 Men Israels Hus skal ikke ville høre dig; thi de ville ikke høre mig; thi hele Israels Hus har haarde Pander og stive Hjerter.

but the house of Israel are not willing to listen to you, for they are not willing to listen to Me, for all the house of Israel are brazen-faced and strong-hearted.

8 Se, jeg gør dit Ansigt haardt imod deres Ansigt og din Pande haard imod deres Pande.

Behold, I have made your face strong against their face, and your forehead strong against their forehead.

9 Jeg gør din Pande som en Demant, haardere end en Klippe; du skal ikke frygte for dem og ej forfærdes for deres Ansigt; thi de ere et genstridigt Hus.

As an adamant, harder than a rock, I have made your forehead; do not fear them, nor are you frightened before them, for they [are] a house of rebellion.”

10 Og han sagde til mig: Du Menneskesøn! alle mine Ord, som jeg taler til dig, annam dem i dit Hjerte, og hør dem med dine Øren!

And He says to me, “Son of man, all My words that I speak to you, receive with your heart, and hear with your ears;

11 Og gak hen, kom til de bortførte, til dit Folks Børn, og tal til dem, og sig til dem: Saa siger den Herre, Herre — hvad enten de lyde eller lade være.

and go forth, go to the expulsion, to the sons of your people, and you have spoken to them, and have said to them: Thus said Lord YHWH; whether they hear, or whether they refrain.”

12 Da løftede Aanden mig op, og jeg hørte bag mig et stort Bulders Røst: „Lovet være Herrens Herlighed‟, fra dens Sted;

And a spirit lifts me up, and I hear a noise behind me, a great rushing—“Blessed [is] the glory of YHWH from His place!”

13 og Lyden af hine levende Væseners Vinger, som berørte den ene den anden, og Lyden af Hjulene ved Siden af dem og et stort Bulders Lyd.

Even a noise of the wings of the living creatures touching one another, and a noise of the wheels alongside them, even a noise of a great rushing.

14 Og en Aand opløftede mig og tog mig bort, og jeg for hen, bitter i min Aands Harme; men Herrens Haand var stærk over mig.

And [the] Spirit has lifted me up, and takes me away, and I go bitterly, in the heat of my spirit, and the hand of YHWH [is] strong on me.

15 Og jeg kom til de bortførte til Tel-Abib, til dem, som boede ved Floden Kebar, og der, hvor de boede, blev jeg siddende i syv Dage, stum midt iblandt dem.

And I come to the expulsion, at Tel-Ahib, who are dwelling at the river Chebar, and where they are dwelling I also dwell [for] seven days, causing astonishment in their midst.

16 Og det skete, der syv Dage vare til Ende, da kom Herrens Ord til mig saaledes:

And it comes to pass, at the end of seven days,

17 Du Menneskesøn! jeg har sat dig til en Vægter for Israels Hus, og du skal høre Ord af min Mund og advare dem paa mine Vegne.

that there is a word of YHWH to me, saying, “Son of man, I have given you [as] a watchman to the house of Israel, and you have heard a word from My mouth, and have warned them from Me.

18 Naar jeg siger til den ugudelige: Du skal visselig dø, og du ikke advarer ham og ikke taler for at advare den ugudelige for hans ugudelige Vej, for at frelse hans Liv: Da skal den ugudelige selv dø i sin Misgerning, og jeg vil kræve hans Blod af din Haand.

In My saying to the wicked: You surely die; and you have not warned him, nor have spoken to warn the wicked from his wicked way, so that he lives; he—the wicked—dies in his iniquity, and I require his blood from your hand.

19 Men naar du har advaret den ugudelige, og han dog ikke omvender sig fra sin Ugudelighed og fra sin ugudelige Vej, da skal han dø i sin Misgerning, men du har din Sjæl frelst.

And you, because you have warned the wicked, and he has not turned back from his wickedness, and from his wicked way, he dies in his iniquity, and you have delivered your soul.

20 Og naar en retfærdig vender sig bort fra sin Retfærdighed og gør Uret, og jeg lægger Anstød for hans Ansigt, skal han dø; fordi du ikke har advaret ham, skal han dø i sin Synd, og hans retfærdige Gerninger, som han har gjort, skulle ikke ihukommes; og hans Blod vil jeg kræve af din Haand.

And in the turning back of the righteous from his righteousness, and he has done perversity, and I have put a stumbling-block before him, he dies; because you have not warned him, he dies in his sin, and his righteousness that he has done is not remembered, and I require his blood from your hand.

21 Men naar du har advaret den retfærdige, at den retfærdige ikke maa synde, og han ikke synder, da skal han visselig leve; thi han lod sig advare, og du har din Sjæl frelst.

And you, because you have warned him—the righteous—that the righteous does not sin, and he has not sinned, he surely lives, because he has been warned; and you have delivered your soul.”

22 Og Herrens Haand var over mig der, og han sagde til mig: Staa op, gak ud i Dalen, og der vil jeg tale med dig.

And there is a hand of YHWH on me there, and He says to me, “Rise, go forth to the valley, and there I speak with you.”

23 Og jeg stod op og gik ud i Dalen, og se, der stod Herrens Herlighed ligesom den Herlighed, hvilken jeg havde set ved Floden Kebar; og jeg faldt paa mit Ansigt.

And I rise and go forth to the valley, and behold, there the glory of YHWH is standing as the glory that I had seen by the river Chebar, and I fall on my face.

24 Og der kom Aand i mig og rejste mig op paa mine Fødder, og han talte med mig og sagde til mig: Gak hen, luk dig inde i dit Hus!

And [the] Spirit comes into me, and causes me to stand on my feet, and He speaks with me, and says to me, “Go in, be shut up in the midst of your house.

25 Og du Menneskesøn! se, de skulle lægge Reb paa dig og binde dig med dem, at du ikke kan gaa ud midt iblandt dem.

And you, son of man, behold, they have put thick bands on you, and have bound you with them, and you do not go forth in their midst;

26 Og jeg vil lade din Tunge hænge ved din Gane, at du skal være stum og ikke være dem en Mand, som straffer; thi de ere et genstridigt Hus.

and I cause your tongue to cleave to your palate, and you have been mute, and are not for a reprover to them, for they [are] a house of rebellion.

27 Men naar jeg taler til dig, vil jeg aabne din Mund, og du skal sige til dem: Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Hvo, der vil høre, han høre! og hvo, der vil lade være, han lade være! thi de ere et genstridigt Hus.

And in My speaking with you, I open your mouth, and you have said to them: Thus said Lord YHWH; the hearer hears, and the refrainer refrains; for they [are] a house of rebellion.”
