< Esajas 38 >
1 I de Dage blev Ezekias dødssyg, og Esajas, Amoz's Søn, Profeten, kom til ham og sagde til ham: Saa sagde Herren: Beskik dit Hus, thi du skal dø og ikke leve.
In the days those he became sick Hezekiah to die and he went to him Isaiah [the] son of Amoz the prophet and he said to him thus he says Yahweh command to household your for [are] about to die you and not you will live.
2 Og Ezekias vendte sit Ansigt til Væggen og bad til Herren
And he turned Hezekiah face his to the wall and he prayed to Yahweh.
3 og sagde: Ak, Herre! kom dog i Hu, at jeg har trolig og med et retskaffent Hjerte vandret for dit Ansigt og gjort det, som er godt for dine Øjne; og Ezekias græd bitterligt.
And he said I beg you O Yahweh remember please this: I have walked about before you in faithfulness and with a heart complete and the good in view your I have done and he wept Hezekiah weeping great.
4 Og Herrens Ord skete til Esajas, sigende:
And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Isaiah saying.
5 Gak og sig til Ezekias: Saa siger Herren, din Fader Davids Gud: Jeg har hørt din Bøn, jeg har set din Graad; se, jeg lægger femten Aar til dine Dage.
Go and you will say to Hezekiah thus he says Yahweh [the] God of David ancestor your I have heard prayer your I have seen tear[s] your here I he will add to days your fif-teen year[s].
6 Og jeg vil fri dig og denne Stad fra Kongen af Assyriens Haand og beskærme denne Stad.
And from [the] hand of [the] king of Assyria I will deliver you and the city this and I will defend the city this.
7 Og du skal have dette Tegn af Herren paa, at Herren skal gøre denne Gerning, som han har sagt:
And this for you [will be] the sign from with Yahweh that he will do Yahweh the thing this which he has spoken.
8 Se, jeg vil lade Solskivens Skygge, som med Solen er gaaet nedad paa Akas's Solskive, gaa ti Streger tilbage; og Solen gik ti Streger tilbage af de Streger, som den var gaaet ned.
Here I [am] about to turn back [the] shadow of the steps which it had gone down on [the] steps of Ahaz with the sun backwards ten steps and it went back the sun ten steps on the steps which it had gone down.
9 Et Skrift af Ezekias, Judas Konge, der han havde været syg og var bleven helbredet af sin Sygdom:
A writing of Hezekiah [the] king of Judah when was sick he and he lived from sickness his.
10 Jeg sagde: Nu, da jeg har faaet rolige Dage, maa jeg vandre ind ad Dødsrigets Porte; jeg maa savne det øvrige af mine Aar. (Sheol )
I I said in [the] half of days my let me go in [the] gates of Sheol I have been caused to miss [the] remainder of years my. (Sheol )
11 Jeg sagde: Jeg skal ikke se Herren, Herren i de levendes Land; jeg skal ikke skue Mennesker mere, naar jeg er iblandt dem, som bo i Skyggeriget.
I said not I will see Yahweh Yahweh in [the] land of the living not I will look at humankind again with [the] inhabitants of cessation.
12 Min Levetid er afbrudt og flyttet fra mig som en Hyrdes Telt; jeg har sammenrullet mit Liv som en Væver sin Væv, fra Traadene afskæres jeg; fra Dag til Nat gør du Ende paa mig.
Dwelling-place my it has been pulled up and it has been removed from me like [the] tent of shepherd my I have rolled up like weaver life my from [the] loom he cuts off me from day unto night you make an end of me.
13 Jeg holdt mig stille indtil om Morgenen som en Løve; saa sønderbrydes alle mine Ben; fra Dag til Nat gør du Ende paa mig.
I have lain down until morning like lion so he breaks all bones my from day unto night you make an end of me.
14 Jeg klagede som en Trane, som en Svale, jeg kurrede som en Due; matte opløftede sig mine Øjne til det høje: Herre! jeg er beklemt, vær Borgen for mig!
Like a swallow a crane so I chirp I moan like dove they are cast down eyes my to the height[s] O Lord oppression [belongs] to me stand surety for me.
15 Hvad skal jeg sige? han har sagt mig det, og han har fuldkommet det; jeg skal vandre sagtelig alle mine Aar for min Sjæls Bitterheds Skyld.
What? will I say and he has spoken to me and he he has acted I will walk deliberately all years my on [the] bitterness of self my.
16 Herre! ved disse Ting lever man, og ved dem alle faar min Aand Liv; du gøre mig stærk og holde mig i Live!
O Lord on them people live and to all in them [the] life of spirit my and may you restore to health me and preserve alive me.
17 Se til Fred blev mig Bitterhed; ja, Bitterhed; men du har kærligt annammet min Sjæl fra Fordærvelsens Grav; thi du kastede alle mine Synder bag din Ryg.
Here! for welfare it was bitter to me bitterly and you you loved life my from [the] pit of destruction for you threw away behind back your all sins my.
18 Thi Dødsriget takker dig ej, Døden lover dig ej; de, som nedfare i Graven, vente ikke paa din Trofasthed. (Sheol )
For not Sheol it gives thanks to you death it praises you not they hope [those who] go down of [the] pit to faithfulness your. (Sheol )
19 Den, som lever, ja den, som lever, han takker dig som jeg i Dag; en Fader underviser sine Børn om din Trofasthed.
[the] living [the] living He he gives thanks to you as I this day a father to children he makes known concerning faithfulness your.
20 Herren er rede til at frelse mig, og med mine Harpetoner ville vi lege alle vort Livs Dage i Herrens Hus.
Yahweh [is] to save me and songs my we will play all [the] days of lives our at [the] house of Yahweh.
21 Men Esajas sagde, at de skulde tage en Klump af Figen og gøre den til et Plaster paa hans Byld, saa skulde han leve.
And he said Isaiah let them take a cake of figs and let them rub [it] on the boil so he may live.
22 Og Ezekias sagde: Hvad Tegn er der paa, at jeg skal gaa op til Herrens Hus?
And he said Hezekiah what? [will be the] sign that I will go up [the] house of Yahweh.
