Ezekiel 35
1 Og Herrens Ord kom til mig saaledes:
Moreover the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
2 Du Menneskesøn! vend dit Ansigt imod Seirs Bjerg og spaa imod det!
“Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir, and prophesy against it,
3 Og du skal sige til det: Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Se, jeg kommer imod dig, Seirs Bjerg! og jeg vil udrække min Haand imod dig og gøre dig til en Ødelæggelse og en Ørk.
and tell it, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Behold, I am against you, Mount Seir, and I will stretch out my hand against you. I will make you a desolation and an astonishment.
4 Dine Stæder vil jeg gøre øde, og du selv skal vorde en Ødelæggelse; og du skal fornemme, at jeg er Herren.
I will lay your cities waste, and you will be desolate. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
5 Fordi du nærer et evigt Fjendskab og overgav Israels Børn i Sværdets Vold, i deres Trængsels Tid, den Tid, da Misgerningen medførte Enden:
“‘“Because you have had a perpetual hostility, and have given over the children of Israel to the power of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time of the iniquity of the end,
6 Derfor, saa sandt jeg lever, siger den Herre, Herre, vil jeg gøre dig til Blod, og Blod skal forfølge dig, efterdi du ikke har hadet Blod, skal Blod forfølge dig.
therefore, as I live,” says the Lord GOD, “I will prepare you for blood, and blood will pursue you. Since you have not hated blood, therefore blood will pursue you.
7 Og jeg vil gøre Seirs Bjerg til en Ødelæggelse og en Ørk; og jeg vil udrydde deraf enhver, som drager frem og tilbage.
Thus I will make Mount Seir an astonishment and a desolation. I will cut off from it him who passes through and him who returns.
8 Og jeg vil fylde Bjergene der med deres ihjelslagne; paa dine Høje og i dine Dale og i alle dine Flodlejer, der falde de, som ere ihjelslagne med Sværd.
I will fill its mountains with its slain. The slain with the sword will fall in your hills and in your valleys and in all your watercourses.
9 Jeg vil gøre dig til evige Ørkener, og dine Stæder skulle ikke bebos; og I skulle fornemme, at jeg er Herren.
I will make you a perpetual desolation, and your cities will not be inhabited. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
10 Fordi du siger: De tvende Folk og de tvende Lande skulle være mine, og vi ville tage dem i Eje, da dog Herren var der:
“‘“Because you have said, ‘These two nations and these two countries will be mine, and we will possess it,’ although the LORD was there,
11 Derfor, saa sandt jeg lever, siger den Herre, Herre, vil jeg gøre efter din Vrede og efter din Nid, som du har udvist formedelst dit Had imod dem, og jeg vil give mig til Kende hos dem, naar jeg dømmer dig.
therefore, as I live,” says the Lord GOD, “I will do according to your anger, and according to your envy which you have shown out of your hatred against them; and I will make myself known amongst them when I judge you.
12 Og du skal fornemme, at jeg er Herren, jeg har hørt alle dine Bespottelser, som du har sagt imod Israels Bjerge, idet du sagde: De ere ødelagte, os ere de givne til Føde.
You will know that I, the LORD, have heard all your insults which you have spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, ‘They have been laid desolate. They have been given to us to devour.’
13 Og I have gjort eder store imod mig med eders Mund og brugt mange overflødige Ord imod mig; jeg har hørt det.
You have magnified yourselves against me with your mouth, and have multiplied your words against me. I have heard it.”
14 Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Naar hele Jorden glæder sig, vil jeg gøre dig øde.
The Lord GOD says: “When the whole earth rejoices, I will make you desolate.
15 Ligesom du har glædet dig over Israels Hus's Arv, fordi den blev ødelagt, saaledes vil jeg gøre imod dig; du Seirs Bjerg og hele Edom alt sammen skal vorde øde; og de skulle fornemme, at jeg er Herren.
As you rejoiced over the inheritance of the house of Israel because it was desolate, so I will do to you. You will be desolate, Mount Seir, and all Edom, even all of it. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’”
