Ezekiel 12
1 HERRENS Ord kom til mig saaledes:
The word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
2 Menneskesøn! Du bor midt i den genstridige Slægt, som har Øjne at se med, men ikke ser, og Ører at høre med, men ikke hører, thi de er en genstridig Slægt.
Son of man, in the midst of a rebellious family art thou dwelling, who have eyes to see, and see not; who have ears to hear, and hear not; for they are a rebellious family.
3 Men du, Menneskesøn, udrust dig ved højlys Dag i deres Paasyn som en, der drager i Landflygtighed, og drag saa i deres Paasyn fra Stedet, hvor du bor, til et andet Sted! Maaske de saa faar Øjnene op; thi de er en genstridig Slægt.
But thou, O son of man, prepare for thyself vessels for going into exile, and wander away by day before their eyes; and thou shalt wander away from thy place to another place before their eyes: perhaps they may become aware that they are a rebellious family.
4 Bær ved højlys Dag i deres Paasyn dine Sager udenfor, som om du skal i Landflygtighed, men selv skal du drage bort om Aftenen i deres Paasyn som en, der drager i Landflygtighed.
Then shalt thou carry forth thy vessels, like vessels of exile, by day before their eyes: and thou shalt go forth at evening before their eyes, as they do that go forth into exile.
5 Slaa i deres Paasyn Hul i Væggen og drag ud derigennem;
Before their eyes break a hole through the wall, and carry [them] through it.
6 tag Sagerne paa Skulderen og drag ud i Bælgmørke med tilhyllet Ansigt uden at se Landet; thi jeg gør dig til et Tegn for Israels Hus!
Before their [eyes] shalt thou bear them upon thy shoulders, in the dark shalt thou carry them forth: thy face shalt thou cover, that thou mayest not see the ground; for as a token have I set thee unto the house of Israel.
7 Og jeg gjorde, som der bødes mig: Jeg bar ved højlys Dag mine Sager udenfor, som om jeg skulde i Landflygtighed, og om Aftenen slog jeg med Haanden Hul i Væggen, og i Bælgmørke drog jeg ud; jeg tog det paa Skulderen i deres Paasyn.
And I did so as I had been commanded; my vessels I carried forth by day, like vessels of exile, and in the evening I broke a hole for myself through the wall with my hand: in the dark I brought them forth, and I bore them upon my shoulder before their eyes.
8 Næste Morgen kom HERRENS Ord til mig saaledes:
And the word of the Lord came unto me in the morning, saying,
9 Menneskesøn! Har Israels Hus, den genstridige Slægt, ikke spurgt dig: »Hvad gør du der?«
Son of man, have not the house of Israel, the rebellious family, said unto thee, What doest thou?
10 Sig til dem: Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Saaledes skal det være med Fyrsten, denne Byrde i Jerusalem, og hele Israels Hus derinde.
Say thou unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, For the prince in Jerusalem is the doom, and for all the house of Israel, [and those] that are in the midst of them.
11 Sig: Jeg er eder et Tegn; som jeg har gjort, skal der gøres med dem: I Landflygtighed og Fangenskab skal de drage.
Say, I am your token; just as I have done, so shall it be done unto them: into exile, into captivity, shall they wander.
12 Og Fyrsten i deres Midte skal tage sine Sager paa Skulderen, og i Bælgmørke skal han drage ud, han skal slaa Hul i Væggen for at drage ud derigennem, og han skal tilhylle sit Ansigt for ikke at se Landet.
And the prince that is among them shall bear upon his shoulder in the dark, and shall go forth; through the wall shall they break a hole to carry [things] through it: his face shall he cover up, that he may not see the ground with his eyes.
13 Men jeg breder mit Net over ham, og han skal fanges i mit Garn; og jeg bringer ham til Babel i Kaldæernes Land, som han dog ikke skal se; og der skal han dø.
And I will spread out my net over him, and he shall be caught in my snare: and I will bring him to Babylon into the land of the Chaldeans; yet shall he not see it, and there shall he die.
14 Og alle hans Omgivelser, hans Hjælpere og alle hans Hærskarer vil jeg udstrø for alle Vinde og drage Sværdet bag dem.
And all that are round about him, those who assist him, and all the wings of his armies will I disperse toward every wind; and the sword will I draw out after them.
15 Da skal de kende, at jeg er HERREN, naar jeg spreder dem: blandt Folkene og udstrør dem i Landene.
And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I scatter them among the nations, and disperse them in the countries.
16 Kun nogle faa af dem levner jeg fra Sværd, Hunger og Pest, for at de kan fortælle om alle deres Vederstyggeligheder blandt de Folk, de kommer til; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
But I will leave of them men few in number from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence: in order that they may relate all their abominations among the nations whither they shall have come; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
17 HERRENS Ord kom til mig saaledes:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
18 Menneskesøn, spis Brød i Angst og drik Vand i Frygt og Bæven;
Son of man, thy bread shalt thou eat with quaking, and thy water shalt thou drink with trembling and with anxious care.
19 og sig til Landets Folk: Saa siger den Herre HERREN om Jerusalems Indbyggere i Israels Land: Brød skal de spise med Bæven, og Vand skal de drikke med Rædsel, for at deres Land og alt deri maa ligge øde til Straf for alle dets Indbyggeres Voldsfærd;
And thou shalt say unto the people of the land, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem, [and] concerning the land of Israel, Their bread shall they eat with anxious care, and their water shall they drink with confusion, for the cause that her land will be desolate, deprived of its plenteousness because of the violence of all those that dwell therein.
20 og Byerne, der nu er beboet, skal ligge øde, og Landet skal blive til Ørk; og I skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
And the cities that are inhabited shall be laid in ruins, and the land shall be made desolate: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
21 HERRENS Ord kom til mig saaledes:
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
22 Menneskesøn! Hvad er det for et Mundheld, I har om Israels Land: »Det trækker i Langdrag, og alle Syner slaar fejl!«
Son of man, what sort of proverb is that which ye have in the land of Israel, saying, The days are lasting long, and lost is every vision?
23 Sig derfor til dem: Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Jeg vil bringe dette Mundheld til at forstumme, saa de ikke mere bruger det i Israel. Sig tværtimod til dem: »Tiden er nær, og alle Syner træffer ind!«
Therefore say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will cause this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; but speak unto them, The days are coming nigh, and the word of every vision.
24 Thi der skal ikke mere være noget Løgnesyn eller nogen falsk Spaadom i Israels Hus,
For there shall be no more any false vision and a deceptive divination within the house of Israel.
25 men jeg, HERREN taler, hvad jeg vil, og det skal ske. Det skal ikke længer trække i Langdrag; men i eders Dage, du genstridige Slægt, vil jeg tale et Ord og fuldbyrde det, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
For I am the Lord, —I do speak, and whatever word I do speak shall be done; it shall not be delayed any more; for in your days, O rebellious family, will I speak the word, and I will execute it, saith the Lord Eternal.
26 HERRENS Ord kom til mig saaledes:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
27 Menneskesøn! Se, Israels Hus siger: »Synet, han skuer, gælder sene Dage, og han profeterer om fjerne Tider!«
Son of man, behold, the house of Israel say, The vision that he foreseeth is for distant days, and for times that are far off doth he prophesy.
28 Sig derfor til dem: Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Intet af mine Ord skal lade vente paa sig mere; hvad jeg taler, skal ske, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
Therefore say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, There shall not be delayed any more one of all my words; but whatever word I do speak shall be done, saith the Lord Eternal.
