Ezekiel 47

1 Og han førte mig tilbage til Husets Dør, og se, der gik Vand ud under Husets Dørtærskel, imod Østen hen; thi Husets Forside vendte imod Øst; og Vandet løb ned forneden, ud fra den højre Side af Indgangen til Huset, Syd om Alteret.

And he brought me back again unto the door of the house: and, behold, water was issuing out from under the threshold of the house eastward; for the front of the house stood toward the east; and the water came down from under [the threshold], from the right side of the house, to the south of the altar.

2 Og han førte mig ud ad Vejen gennem den nordre Port og førte mig omkring udenom hen til den ydre Port, den, som vender imod Øst; og se, der rislede Vand ud fra den højre Side af Indgangen.

Then did he bring me out by the way of the gate northwards and led me about the way without unto the outer gate by the way that looked eastward: and, behold, the water was running on the right side.

3 Der Manden gik ud imod Østen, da havde han en Maalesnor i sin Haand; og han maalte tusinde Alen, og han førte mig igennem Vandet, Vand til Anklerne.

When the man went forth eastward, having the measuring-line in his hand, he measured a thousand cubits, and he led me through the water, the water reaching to the ankles.

4 Og han maalte atter tusinde Alen og førte mig igennem Vandet, Vand til Knæerne; og han maalte atter tusinde og førte mig over, Vand til Hofterne.

Again he measured a thousand [cubits], and led me through the water, the water reaching to the knees. Again he measured a thousand [cubits], and led me through, the water reaching to the loins.

5 Og han maalte atter tusinde, da var det blevet en Bæk, hvilken jeg ikke kunde gaa igennem; thi Vandet gik højt, Vand til at svømme i, en Bæk, som man ikke kunde gaa igennem.

And he measured again a thousand [cubits], it being a stream that I could not wade through; for the water was increased, being water fit to swim in, a stream that could not be waded through.

6 Og han sagde til mig: Har du set det, du Menneskesøn! og han ledte mig og førte mig tilbage langs Bækkens Bred.

And he said unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen this: Then did he lead me, and caused me to return to the bank of the stream.

7 Idet han førte mig tilbage, se, da stod der saare mange Træer ved Bredden af Bækken, paa denne og paa den anden Side.

Now when I returned, behold, there were at the banks of the stream very many trees, on the one side and on the other.

8 Og han sagde til mig: Dette Vand gaar ud imod det østre Grænseland og strømmer ned over den slette Mark og gaar ud i Havet; naar det er ført ud i Havet, da blive Vandene friske.

Then said he unto me, These waters issue out toward the eastern district, and go down into the plain, and fall into the sea, [the waters] being carried forth into the sea, so that the waters shall be healed.

9 Og det skal ske, at alt levende, som vrimler over alt, hvor Bækken kommer hen, skal leve op, og at der skal være saare mange Fisk; thi naar disse Vande ere komne derhen, blive hine friske, og der bliver Liv over alt, hvor Bækken kommer hen,

And it shall come to pass, that every thing that liveth, which moveth, whithersoever the double-stream shall come, shall live: and the fish shall be [therein] in great abundance; for when this water shall have come thither, [the waters of the sea] shall be healed, and every thing shall live whither the stream cometh.

10 Og det skal ske, at der skal stak Fiskere ved Siden deraf, fra En-Gedi og indtil En-Eglaim skal der udbredes Fiskegarn, der skal være Fisk der efter sit Slags, som Fisk i det store Hav, saare mange.

And it shall come to pass, that the fishers shall stand by it; from 'En-gedi even unto 'En-'eglayim, there shall be places for the spreading out of nets: after their various kinds shall the fish thereof be, like the fish of the great sea, exceedingly many.

11 Men Sumpene derved og Grøfterne derved, de skulle ikke blive friske, de ere givne hen til Salt.

But its swamps and its lagoons shall not be healed, for [the production of] salt are they destined.

12 Og ved Bækken, ved dens Bred, paa denne og paa den anden Side skal der opvokse alle Haande Træer med spiselig Frugt, der skal ikke falde et Blad af noget, og Frugten derpaa skal ikke faa Ende, hver Maaned skulle de bære ny Frugt, thi deres Vande gaa ud fra Helligdommen; og Frugten deraf skal være til Spise og Bladene deraf til Lægedom.

And by the stream upon its banks, on this side and on that side, shall grow up all kinds of trees for food, the leaves of which shall not fade, and the fruit of which shall not come to an end, every month shall they bring forth new ripe fruit; because its water is that which issueth out of the sanctuary; and their fruit shall serve for food, and their leaves for remedies.

13 Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Dette er Landemærket, efter hvilket I skulle tage Landet til Arv, for de tolv Israels Stammer; Josef skal have tvende Parter.

Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, This shall be the boundary, whereby ye shall divide out the land unto the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph shall have two portions.

14 Og I skulle tage det til Arv, den ene som den anden, efterdi jeg har opløftet min Haand paa at ville give eders Fædre det; og dette Land skal tilfalde eder som Arv.

And ye shall inherit it, every one like the other, [the land] concerning which I lifted up my hand to give it unto your fathers: and this land shall fall unto you for an inheritance.

15 Og dette er Landets Grænse: Paa Nordsiden, fra det store Hav Vejen til Hethlon i Retning ad Zedad.

And this shall be the boundary of the land: On the north side, from the great sea, the road to Chethlon, as far as to Zedad;

16 Hamath, Berotha, Sibraim, som ligger imellem Damaskus's Landemærke og imellem Hamaths Landemærke, Hazer-Tikon, som ligger op til Havrans Landemærke;

Chamath, Berothah, Sibrayim, which is between the boundary of Damascus and the boundary of Chamath; Chazar-hattichon, which is by the boundary of Chavran.

17 og Landemærket fra Havet af skal være Hazar-Enon, Damaskus's Landemærke, og i Nord imod Nord til er det Hamaths Landemærke; og dette er Nordsiden.

And the boundary shall be from the sea to Chazar-'enon, the boundary of Damascus, and the northern part on the north, and the boundary of Chamath. And this is the north side.

18 Men paa Østsiden, imellem Havran og Damaskus og Gilead paa den ene og imellem Israels Land paa den anden Side, er Jordanen, fra Landemærket skulle I maale indtil det østre Hav; og dette er Østsiden.

And the east side shall ye measure between Chavran and Damascus [on the one side], and between Gil'ad and the land of Israel [on the other side] by the Jordan, from the [north] boundary unto the east sea. And this is the east side.

19 Og Sydsiden imod Sønden skal være fra Tamar til Kivevandet ved Kades, til Bækken ud imod det store Hav; og dette er Sydsiden imod Sønden.

And the south side; on the south, from Thamar even to the waters of contention at Kadesh, toward the brook [flowing] into the Great Sea. And this is the south side on the south.

20 Og Vestsiden skal være det store Hav fra Landemærket indtil tværs over for Hamath; dette er Vestsiden.

And the west side shall be the great sea from the [southern] boundary, as far as straight up to Chamath. This is the west side.

21 Og I skulle dele dette Land imellem eder, imellem Israels Stammer.

And ye shall divide this land among yourselves according to the tribes of Israel.

22 Og det skal ske, at I skulle udlodde det til Arv for eder og for de fremmede, som opholde sig midt iblandt eder, og som have avlet Børn midt iblandt eder; og de skulle være eder som den indfødte iblandt Israels Børn, de skulle tage i Arv med eder midt iblandt Israels Stammer.

And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inheritance among yourselves, and to the strangers that sojourn in the midst of you, who shall have begotten children in the midst of you; and they shall be unto you as the native born among the children of Israel: with you shall they obtain an inheritance in the midst of the tribes of Israel.

23 Og det skal ske i den Stamme, hvor den fremmede opholder sig, der skulle I give ham Arv, siger den Herre, Herre.

And it shall come to pass that in whatever tribe the stranger sojourneth, there shall ye give him his inheritance, saith the Lord Eternal.
