Ezekiel 6

1 Og Herrens Ord kom til mig, og han sagde:

Yahweh gave me another message. He said,

2 Du Menneskesøn! ret dit Ansigt imod Israels Bjerge, og spaa imod dem,

“You human, turn toward the mountains of Israel, and prophesy [what will happen to] them, and say,

3 og sig: Israels Bjerge! hører den Herre, Herres Ord: Saa siger den Herre, Herre til Bjergene og til Højene, til Strømmene og til Dalene: Se, jeg vil føre Sværd over eder og ødelægge eders Høje.

‘You mountains and hills of Israel [APO], listen to what Yahweh the Lord says to you: “I am about to [enemy soldiers with] swords to come and destroy [the shrines on] your hilltops.

4 Og eders Altre skulle ødelægges, og eders Solbilleder sønderknuses, og jeg vil lade eders saarede falde foran eders Afguder.

They will smash all the [for worshiping idols] and the altars for burning incense. And they will [many Israeli] people in front of those idols.

5 Og jeg vil lægge Israels Børns døde Kroppe foran deres Afguder og adsprede eders Ben trindt omkring eders Altre.

Their corpses will lie in front of their idols, and their bones will be scattered around their altars.

6 Overalt, hvor I bo, skulle Stæderne ødelægges og Højene blive øde, paa det at eders Altre kunne ødelægges og blive øde og eders Afguder sønderknuses og forsvinde og eders Solbilleder omhugges og eders Gerninger udslettes.

Wherever the Israelis live, their towns will be ruined, and the shrines where they worship idols will be smashed. Their altars will be completely smashed [DOU], their idols will be completely smashed [DOU], and everything that they own will become a pile of ruins.

7 Og saarede skulle falde midt iblandt eder, og I skulle fornemme, at jeg er Herren.

Many of their people will be killed; and then they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do the things that I say that I will do].

8 Men jeg vil lade en Levning blive tilovers, idet der iblandt Hedningerne skulle være nogle af eder, som ere undkomne fra Sværdet, naar I blive adspredte i Landene.

But I will allow some of the Israelis to remain alive. They will escape being killed when their enemies scatter them among many other nations.

9 Og de undkomne af eder skulle komme mig i Hu iblandt Hedningerne, hvorhen de ere bortførte som Fanger, naar jeg faar knækket deres bolerske Hjerte, som var afveget fra mig, og deres bolerske Øjne, som saa efter deres Afguder; og de skulle væmmes ved sig selv over de onde Ting, som de have gjort efter alle deres Vederstyggeligheder.

When that happens, in those nations to which they have been forced to go, those who have escaped from being killed will think about me. They will remember that I was very grieved because of their turning away from me [IDM] with their inner beings, and because they very much desired [IDM] to worship their idols. They will (hate/be very displeased with) themselves because of the evil and detestable things that they have done.

10 Og de skulle fornemme, at jeg er Herren; jeg har ikke talt uden Grund om at paaføre dem denne Ulykke.

[they will realize that] I, Yahweh, [have punished them. They will realize that] when I threatened to punish them, I surely intended [LIT] to do that.

11 Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Slaa i din Haand og stamp med din Fod, og sig ak over alle Israels Hus's slemme Vederstyggeligheder, at de maa falde ved Sværdet, ved Hungeren og ved Pesten.

So this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, [to you, Ezekiel]: ‘Wring your hands and stamp your feet and cry [to show that you are distressed], and [about what will happen to] your Israeli people [MTY] because of all their wicked and detestable behavior. They will be killed [their enemies’] swords, they will die from hunger, and they will die from plagues.

12 Den, som er langt borte, skal dø ved Pesten, og den, som er nær, skal falde for Sværdet, men den overblevne og bevarede skal dø af Hungeren; og jeg vil fuldkomme min Harme imod dem.

Those who are far [from Jerusalem] will die from plagues, those who are close [to Jerusalem] will be killed by [their enemies’] swords, and those who are still alive will die from hunger. That is how I will punish [MTY] them.

13 Og I skulle fornemme, at jeg er Herren, naar deres saarede ligge midt iblandt deres Afguder, trindt omkring deres Altre, paa alle fremragende Høje, paa alle Bjergenes Toppe og under alle grønne Træer og under alle løvrige Terebinther, hvor de ofrede Vellugt til alle deres Afguder.

[Some of] your people’s corpses will lie among their idols around their altars, on every high hilltop and on all the mountaintops, under every big tree [DOU]—at all the places where they burned incense [honor] their idols. Then they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].

14 Og jeg vil udrække min Haand over dem og gøre Landet til en Ødelæggelse og et Øde fremfor Dibla's Ørk, overalt hvor de bo; og de skulle fornemme, at jeg er Herren.

And I will stretch out my arm and cause your entire country to become an empty wasteland, from the [in the far south] to [town in the far north]. Then they will realize that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do the things that I say that I will do].’”
