Esajas 36
1 Og det skete i Kong Ezekias's fjortende Aar, at Senakerib, Kongen af Assyrien, drog op imod alle Judas faste Stæder og indtog dem.
And it was in four-teen year of the king Hezekiah he went up Sennacherib [the] king of Assyria on all [the] cities of Judah fortified and he seized them.
2 Og Kongen af Assyrien sendte Rabsake fra Lakis til Jerusalem til Kong Ezekias med en svar Hær; og han stod ved den øverste Dams Vandledning, som er ved den alfare Vej til Blegerens Ager.
And he sent [the] king of Assyria - [the] chief commander from Lachish Jerusalem towards to the king Hezekiah with an army massive and he stood at [the] conduit of the pool upper on [the] highway of [the] field of [the] washer.
3 Da gik Eliakim, Hilkias Søn, som var Hofmester, og Sebna, Kansleren, og Joa, Asafs Søn, Historieskriveren, ud til ham.
And he went out to him Eliakim [the] son of Hilkiah who [was] over the house and Shebna the scribe and Joah [the] son of Asaph the recorder.
4 Og Rabsake sagde til dem: Siger til Ezekias: Saa siger den store Konge, Kongen af Assyrien: Hvad er det for en Tillid, som du forlader dig paa?
And he said to them [the] chief commander say please to Hezekiah thus he says the king great [the] king of Assyria what? [is] the trust this which you trust.
5 Jeg siger — dog det er ikkun Læbers Ord — at der er Klogskab og Styrke til Krigen; nu, paa hvem forlader du dig, eftersom du er affalden fra mig?
I say only a word of lips [are] a plan and strength for war now on whom? do you rely that you have rebelled against me.
6 Se, du forlader dig paa denne brudte Rørkæp, paa Ægypten; støtter nogen sig paa den, da gaar den ind i hans Haand og borer den igennem; saaledes er Farao, Kongen i Ægypten, for alle dem, som forlade sig paa ham.
Here! you rely on [the] staff of reed crushed this on Egypt which he will support himself anyone on it and it will go in palm his and it will pierce it [is] thus Pharaoh [the] king of Egypt to all those [who] rely on him.
7 Og om du vil sige til mig: Vi forlade os paa Herren vor Gud, er det da ikke ham, hvis Høje og hvis Altre Ezekias har borttaget, idet han sagde til Juda og til Jerusalem: For dette Alter skulle I tilbede?
And if you will say to me to Yahweh God our we trust ¿ not [is] he [the one] whom he has removed Hezekiah high places his and altars his and he has said to Judah and to Jerusalem before the altar this you will bow down.
8 Og nu, indgaa Væddemaal med min Herre, Kongen af Assyrien, saa vil jeg give dig to Tusinde Heste, om du kan skaffe dig Ryttere til dem.
And now make a wager please with master my the king of Assyria so let me give to you two thousand horses if you will be able to put for yourself riders on them.
9 Hvorledes vilde du da drive en Fyrstes Magt tilbage, hørte han end til min Herres ringeste Tjenere? men du forlader dig paa Ægypten, for Vognes og for Rytteres Skyld.
And how? will you turn back [the] face of [the] governor one of [the] servants of master my little and you have been relying yourself on Egypt for chariotry and for horsemen.
10 Og nu, mon jeg vel uden Herren er dragen op imod dette Land for at ødelægge det? Herren sagde til mig: Drag op imod dette Land og ødelæg det!
And now ¿ without Yahweh have I come up on the land this to destroy it Yahweh he said to me go up to the land this and destroy it.
11 Da sagde Eliakim og Sebna og Joa til Rabsake: Kære, tal til dine Tjenere paa Syrisk, thi vi forstaa det; og tal ikke til os paa jødisk for Folkets Øren, som er paa Muren.
And he said Eliakim and Shebna and Joah to [the] chief commander speak please to servants your Aramaic for [are] understanding we and may not you speak to us [in] Judean in [the] ears of the people which [is] on the city wall.
12 Men Rabsake sagde: Har min Herre sendt mig til din Herre eller til dig for at tale disse Ord? mon ikke til de Mænd, som sidde paa Muren, og som skulle komme til at æde deres eget Skarn og drikke deres eget Vand med eder?
And he said [the] chief commander ¿ to master your and to you has he sent me master my to speak the words these ¿ not to the people who sit on the city wall to eat (own excrement their *Q(K)*) and to drink ([the] water of feet their *Q(K)*) with you.
13 Saa stod Rabsake og raabte med høj Røst paa jødisk og sagde: Hører den store Konges Ord, Kongens af Assyrien!
And he stood [the] chief commander and he called out with a voice great [in] Judean and he said hear [the] words of the king great [the] king of Assyria.
14 Saa sagde Kongen: Lader ikke Ezekias bedrage eder! thi han formaar ikke at redde eder.
Thus he says the king may not he deceive you Hezekiah for not he will be able to deliver you.
15 Og lader ikke Ezekias faa eder til at forlade eder paa Herren, idet han siger: Herren skal visselig fri os; denne Stad skal ikke gives i Kongen af Assyriens Haand.
And may not he make trust you Hezekiah to Yahweh saying certainly he will deliver us Yahweh not it will be given the city this in [the] hand of [the] king of Assyria.
16 Lyder ikke Ezekias ad; thi saa sagde Kongen af Assyrien: Slutter Fred med mig, og gaar ud til mig og æder, hver af sit Vintræ og hver af sit Figentræ, og drikker hver Vand af sin Brønd,
May not you listen to Hezekiah. For thus he says the king of Assyria make with me a blessing and come out to me and eat everyone own vine his and everyone own fig tree his and drink everyone [the] water of own cistern his.
17 indtil jeg kommer og henter eder til et Land som eders Land, et Land, i hvilket der er Korn og Vin, et Land, i hvilket der er Brød og Vingaarde.
Until come I and I will take you to a land like own land your a land of grain and new wine a land of bread and vineyards.
18 Lader ikke Ezekias tilskynde eder, idet han siger: Herren skal fri os; have Hedningernes Guder vel friet hver sit Land af Kongen af Assyriens Haand?
Lest he should mislead you Hezekiah saying Yahweh he will deliver us ¿ have they delivered [the] gods of the nations anyone land its from [the] hand of [the] king of Assyria.
19 Hvo ere de Guder af Hamat og Arfad? hvo ere de Guder af Sefarvajm? og mon de have reddet Samaria af min Haand?
Where? [were] [the] gods of Hamath and Arpad where? [were] [the] gods of Sepharvaim and if they have delivered Samaria from hand my.
20 Hvo iblandt alle disse Landes Guder er der, som have friet deres Land af min Haand, og Herren skulde redde Jerusalem af min Haand?
Who? among all [the] gods of the lands these [are those] which they have delivered land their from hand my that he will deliver Yahweh Jerusalem from hand my.
21 Og de tav og svarede ham ikke et Ord; thi det var Kongens Befaling, som havde sagt: Svar ham intet!
And they kept silent and not they answered him anything for [was] [the] commandment of the king it saying not you must answer him.
22 Da kom Eliakim, Hilkias Søn, som var Hofmester, og Sebna, Kansleren, og Joa, Asafs Søn, Historieskriveren, til Ezekias med sønderrevne Klæder; og de gave ham Rabsakes Ord til Kende.
And he went Eliakim [the] son of Hilkiah who [was] over the house and Shebna the scribe and Joah [the] son of Asaph the recorder to Hezekiah torn of garments and they told to him [the] words of [the] chief commander.
