Draw near O nations to hear and O peoples pay attention let it hear the earth and what fills it [the] world and all produce its.
2 Thi Herrens Vrede er over alle Hedningerne og hans Fortørnelse over al deres Hær; han har sat dem i Band, giver dem hen at slagtes.
For wrath [belongs] to Yahweh towards all the nations and rage towards every army their he will totally destroy them he will deliver up them to slaughter.
3 Og deres ihjelslagne skulle henkastes, og Stanken af deres døde Kroppe skal stige op, og Bjergene skulle flyde af deres Blod.
And slain [ones] their they will be thrown out and corpses their it will go up stench their and they will melt away mountains from blood their.
4 Og Himmelens Hær skal svinde hen, og Himlene skulle rulles sammen som en Bog; og al deres Hær skal visne som et vissent Blad af et Vintræ og ligesom vissent Løv af et Figentræ.
And they will rot away all [the] host of the heavens and they will be rolled up like scroll the heavens and all host their it will wither as withers leafage from a vine and like withered fruit from a fig tree.
5 Thi mit Sværd er vædet i Himlene; se, til Dom skal det fare ned over Edom og over det Folk, som jeg har sat i Band.
If it has drunk its fill in the heavens sword my there! on Edom it will come down and on [the] people of total destruction my for judgment.
6 Herrens Sværd er fuldt af Blod, er mættet af Fedme, af Lams og Bukkes Blod, af Vædres Nyrers Fedme; thi Herren har Slagtoffer i Bozra og en stor Slagtning i Edoms Land.
A sword [belongs] to Yahweh it is full blood it has fattened itself from fat from [the] blood of lambs and goats from [the] fat of [the] kidneys of rams for a sacrifice [belongs] to Yahweh in Bozrah and a slaughter great in [the] land of Edom.
7 Og Bøfler fældes tillige med dem, og Ungkvæg tillige med Tyre; og deres Land skal blive vædet af Blod og deres Jordbund mættes med Fedme.
And they will go down wild oxen with them and young bulls with mighty [bulls] and it will drink its fill land their from blood and dust their from fat it will be fattened.
8 Thi det er Herrens Hævns Dag, Gengældelsens Aar for Zions Retssag.
For a day of vengeance [belongs] to Yahweh a year of retribution for [the] cause of Zion.
9 Og dets Bække skulle forvandles til Beg og dets Jordbund til Svovl, og dets Land skal blive til brændende Beg.
And they will be changed torrents its into pitch and dust its into sulfur and it will become land its pitch burning.
10 Det skal ikke slukkes Dag eller Nat, Røgen deraf skal stige op evindelig; det skal være øde fra Slægt til Slægt, fra Evighed til Evighed skal ingen gaa igennem det.
Night and by day not it will be extinguished for ever it will go up smoke its from generation to generation it will be desolate to perpetuity of perpetuities there not [will be one who] passes in it.
11 Men Rørdrum og Pindsvin skulle eje det, og Hornuglen og Ravnen skulle bo i det; thi han skal udstrække Maalesnoren over det, at det bliver øde, og veje det ud, at det skal blive Ørk.
And they will take possession of it desert owl and hedgehog and great owl and raven they will dwell in it and he will stretch out over it a measuring-line of formlessness and stones of emptiness.
12 Af dets ædle er der ingen, man kan kalde til Konge; og alle dets Fyrster skulle blive til intet.
Nobles its and there not there [will be that which] a kingship people will call and all princes its they will be nothing.
13 Og der skal opvokse Tjørn; paa dets Paladser, Nælder og Tidsler i dets Befæstninger; og det skal være Dragers Bolig, Strudsungers Gaard.
And it will grow up fortresses its thorns nettle[s] and thornbush[es] [will be] on fortifications its and it will be a habitation of jackals grass for daughters of an ostrich.
14 Og Ørkens Vildt og Ulve skulle møde hverandre, og den ene Skovtrold skal raabe til den anden, kun Vætter skulle slaa sig til Ro der og finde Hvile for sig.
And they will meet desert-dwellers hyenas and goat to companion its it will call surely there it will rest [the] night-creature and it will find for itself a resting place.
15 Pilslangen skal bygge Rede der og lægge Æg og udklække Unger og samle dem under sin Skygge; kun Glenter flokkes der, den ene hos den anden.
There it will make a nest owl[s] and it laid eggs and it will hatch and it will gather a brood in shadow its surely there they will be gathered black kites each companion its.
16 Søger i Herrens Bog og læser, der fattes ikke een af disse Ting, det ene savner ikke det andet; thi hans Mund har budet det, og hans Aand har sanket dem.
Seek from on [the] scroll of Yahweh and read one of them not it will be missing each companion its not they will miss for mouth my it it has commanded and spirit his it it will gather them.
17 Og han har kastet Lod for dem, og hans Haand har delt det ud iblandt dem ved Maalesnoren; de skulle eje det evindelig, fra Slægt til Slægt skulle de bo deri.
And he he has cast for them a lot and hand his it has distributed it to them by the measuring-line until perpetuity they will possess it to a generation and a generation they will dwell in it.
