< Ezekiel 32 >
1 Og det skete i det tolvte Aar, i den tolvte Maaned, paa den første Dag i Maaneden, at Herrens Ord kom til mig saaledes:
And it happened that, in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, on the first of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 Du Menneskesøn! opløft et Klagemaal over Farao, Kongen af Ægypten, og sig til ham: Du blev lignet med en ung Løve iblandt Folkene, men du var som en Drage i Havet, du brød frem i dine Strømme, og plumrede Vandene med dine Fødder og trampede i deres Strømme.
“Son of man, take up a lamentation over Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and you shall say to him: You are like the lion of the Gentiles, and like the dragon that is in the sea. And you brandished a horn among your rivers, and you disturbed the waters with your feet, and you trampled upon their rivers.
3 Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Derfor vil jeg udbrede mit Garn over dig ved en Forsamling af mange Folkeslag, og de skulle trække dig op i mit Vod.
Because of this, thus says the Lord God: I will spread my net over you, with the multitude of many peoples, and I will draw you into my dragnet.
4 Og jeg vil kaste dig op paa Landet og slænge dig hen oven paa Marken; og jeg vil lade alle Himmelens Fugle sætte sig paa dig og mætte de vride Dyr paa hele Jorden af dig.
And I will throw you upon the land. I will cast you upon the surface of the field. And I will cause all the birds of the air to live upon you. And I will satiate the beasts of the entire earth with you.
5 Og jeg vil kaste dit Kød paa Bjergene og fylde Dalene med din store Krop.
And I will place your flesh upon the mountains. And I will fill up your hills with your decaying flesh.
6 Og jeg vil væde Landet med, hvad der udstrømmer af dig, med dit Blod, indtil Bjergene, og Flodsengene skulle blive fulde af dig.
And I will irrigate the earth with your rotting blood upon the mountains. And the valleys will be filled with you.
7 Og naar jeg udslukker dig, vil jeg bedække Himmelen og formørke dens Stjerner; Solen vil jeg bedække med en Sky, og Maanen skal ikke lade sit Lys skinne.
And I will cover heaven, when you will have been extinguished. And I will cause its stars to grow dark. I will shroud the sun with gloom, and the moon will not give her light.
8 Jeg vil lade alle klare Lys paa Himmelen formørkes for din Skyld, og jeg vil lægge Mørke over dit Land, siger den Herre, Herre.
I will cause all the lights of heaven to grieve over you. And I will bring darkness upon your land, says the Lord God, when your wounded will have fallen in the midst of the land, says the Lord God.
9 Og jeg vil bedrøve mange Folks Hjerter, naar jeg bringer dit Fald ud iblandt Folkene, i de Lande, som du ikke har kendt.
And I will provoke the heart of many peoples to anger, when I will have led in your destruction among the Gentiles, over the lands that you have not known.
10 Og jeg vil gøre, at mange Folk skulle forfærdes over dig, og deres Konger skulle gyse saare over dig, naar jeg lader mit Sværd blinke for deres Ansigt; og de skulle bæve alle Øjeblikke, hver for sit Liv, paa dit Falds Dag.
And I will cause many peoples to be stupefied over you. And their kings will be afraid, with great horror, over you, when my sword will begin to fly above their faces. And suddenly, they will be struck with astonishment, each one concerning his own life, on the day of their ruination.
11 Thi saa siger den Herre, Herre: Kongen af Babels Sværd skal komme over dig.
For thus says the Lord God: The sword of the king of Babylon will come to you.
12 Jeg vil lade din Hob falde for de vældiges Sværd, for dem, som alle sammen ere de forfærdelige iblandt Folkene; og de skulle ødelægge Ægyptens Stolthed, at al dets Hob skal gaa til Grunde.
By the swords of the strong, I will cast down your multitude. All these nations are invincible, and they will lay waste to the arrogance of Egypt, and so its multitude will be destroyed.
13 Og jeg vil ødelægge alt dets Kvæg, at det ej bliver ved de mange Vande, og dem skal intet Menneskes Fod mere plumre; og heller intet Dyrs Klove skulle plumre dem.
And I will perish all its cattle, which were above the many waters. And the foot of man will no longer disturb them, and the hoof of cattle will no longer trouble them.
14 Da vil jeg lade deres Vande klare sig og lade deres Floder flyde som Olie, siger den Herre, Herre,
Then I will cause their waters to be very pure, and their rivers to be like oil, says the Lord God,
15 naar jeg gør Ægyptens Land til en Ødelæggelse, og Landet bliver øde for det, som det er fuldt af, naar jeg slaar alle dets Indbyggere; og de skulle fornemme, at jeg er Herren.
when I will have set the land of Egypt in desolation. And the land will be deprived of her plenitude, when I will have struck all its inhabitants. And they shall know that I am the Lord.
16 Det er et Klagemaal, og man skal synge det, Hedningernes Døtre skulle synge det; over Ægypten og over al dets Hob skulle de synge det, siger den Herre, Herre.
This is the lamentation. And they shall lament it. The daughters of the Gentiles shall lament it. They shall lament it over Egypt and over its multitude, says the Lord God.”
17 Og det skete i det tolvte Aar, paa den femtende Dag i Maaneden, da kom Herrens Ord til mig, saaledes:
And it happened that, in the twelfth year, on the fifteenth of the month, the word of the Lord came to me saying:
18 Du Menneskesøn! istem en Sørgesang over Ægyptens Hob, og lad den fare ned, den og Døtrene af herlige Folkefærd, til Underverdenens Land, til dem, som nedfare i Hulen.
“Son of man, sing mournfully over the multitude of Egypt. And cast her down, both her and the daughters of the robust nations, to the lowest part of the earth, with those who descend into the pit.
19 Hvem overgaar du i Dejlighed? far ned, læg dig ved de uomskaarne!
Whom do you exceed in beauty? Descend and sleep with the uncircumcised!
20 Midt iblandt dem, som ere ihjelslagne ved Sværd, skulle de falde; Sværdet er givet, trækker det ned med alle dets Hobe!
They will fall by the sword in the midst of the slain. The sword has been given. They have dragged her down, with all her people.
21 De vældiges Fyrster tale om ham midt fra Dødsriget, med hans Hjælpere; de ere nedfarne, de ligge der, de uomskaarne, ihjelslagne med Sværd. (Sheol )
The most powerful among the strong will speak to him from the midst of hell, those who descended with his helpers and who went to sleep uncircumcised, slain by the sword. (Sheol )
22 Der er Assur og al dets Forsamling, trindt omkring ham ere deres Grave, alle sammen ere de ihjelslagne, de, som faldt ved Sværd;
Assur is in that place, with all his multitude. Their graves are all around him: all of the slain and those who fell by the sword.
23 dets Grave ere lagte i Hulens nederste Dyb, og dets Forsamling er trindt omkring dets Grav; de ere alle ihjelslagne, faldne ved Sværd, de, som voldte Forskrækkelse i de levendes Land.
Their graves have been placed in the lowest parts of the pit. And his multitude was stationed on all sides of his grave: all of the slain, and those who fell by the sword, who formerly spread terror in the land of the living.
24 Der er Elam og al dets Hob trindt omkring i dets Grav; alle sammen ere de ihjelslagne, de, som faldt ved Sværd, hvilke som uomskaarne fore ned til Underverdenens Land og havde voldt Forskrækkelse for sig i de levendes Land, og de bære deres Skændsel iblandt dem, som fare ned i Hulen.
Elam is in that place, with all his multitude, on all sides of his grave, all those who were slain or who fell by the sword, who descended uncircumcised to the lowest part of the earth, who caused their terror in the land of the living. And they have borne their disgrace, with those who descend into the pit.
25 Man har givet det Leje midt iblandt de ihjelslagne, iblandt al dets Hob, trindt omkring ham ere deres Grave; alle ere de uomskaarne, ihjelslagne ved Sværd; thi Forskrækkelse for dem var udbredt i de levendes Land, og de bære deres Skændsel iblandt dem, som fare ned i Hulen, midt iblandt de ihjelslagne er han lagt.
They have appointed him a place to lie among all his people, in the midst of the slain. Their graves are all around him. All these are uncircumcised and were slain by the sword. For they spread their terror in the land of the living, and they have borne their disgrace, with those who descend into the pit. They have been stationed in the midst of the slain.
26 Der er Mesek, Tubal og al dets Hob, trindt omkring ham ere deres Grave; alle ere de uomskaarne, ihjelslagne med Sværd, thi de have voldet Forskrækkelse for sig i de levendes Land.
Meshech and Tubal are in that place, with all their multitude. Their graves are all around him: all these are uncircumcised, and they were slain and fell by the sword. For they spread their terror in the land of the living.
27 Men de ligge ikke ved de Helte, som ere faldne af de uomskaarne, hvilke nedfore til Dødsriget med deres Krigsvaaben og fik deres Sværd lagte under deres Hoveder; deres Misgerninger ere komne over deres Ben; thi de vare en Forskrækkelse for Heltene i de levendes Land. (Sheol )
But they shall not sleep with the strong, and with those who also fell uncircumcised, who descended to hell with their weapons, and who placed their swords under their heads, while their iniquities were in their bones. For they were the terror of the strong in the land of the living. (Sheol )
28 Og du! du skal sønderknuses midt iblandt de uomskaarne og ligge ved dem, som ere ihjelslagne ved Sværd.
Therefore, you also will be broken in the midst of the uncircumcised, and you will sleep with those who were slain by the sword.
29 Derhen kom Edom, dets Konger og alle dets Fyrster, som trods deres Styrke ere lagte hos dem, som ere ihjelslagne med Sværd; de ligge ved de uomskaarne og ved dem, som nedfare i Hulen.
Idumea is in that place, with her kings and all her commanders, who with their army have been given to those who were slain by the sword. And they have slept with the uncircumcised and with those who descend into the pit.
30 Derhen kom alle de ypperste Mænd af Norden og alle Zidonier, som fore ned til de ihjelslagne og bleve beskæmmede, uagtet de havde voldet Forskrækkelse formedelst deres Styrke, og de ligge som uomskaarne ved dem, som ere ihjelslagne ved Sværd, og bære deres Skændsel iblandt dem, som nedfare i Hulen.
All the leaders of the north are in that place, with all the hunters, who were brought down with the slain, fearful and confounded in their strength, who have gone to sleep uncircumcised, with those who were slain by the sword. And they have borne their disgrace, with those who descend into the pit.
31 Dem skal Farao se og trøste sig over hele sin Hob; ihjelslagen med Sværd er Farao og al hans Hær, siger den Herre, Herre.
Pharaoh saw them, and he was consoled over all his multitude, which was slain by the sword, even Pharaoh and all his army, says the Lord God.
32 Thi jeg har ladet ham volde Forskrækkelse i de levendes Land; saa skal Farao og al hans Hob lægges midt iblandt de uomskaarne, iblandt dem, som ere ihjelslagne med Sværd, siger den Herre, Herre.
For I have spread my terror in the land of the living, and he has gone to sleep in the midst of the uncircumcised, with those who were slain by the sword, even Pharaoh and all his multitude, says the Lord God.”
