< Ezekiel 2 >

1 Han sagde til mig: »Menneskesøn staa op paa dine Fødder saa jeg kan tale med dig!«
He said to me, "Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak with you."
2 Og som han talede til mig, kom Aanden i mig og rejste mig paa mine Fødder, og jeg hørte ham tale til mig.
The Spirit entered into me when he spoke to me, and set me on my feet; and I heard him who spoke to me.
3 Han sagde: »Menneskesøn! Jeg sender dig til Israeliterne, de genstridige, der har sat sig op imod mig; de og deres Fædre har forbrudt sig imod mig til den Dag i Dag.
He said to me, "Son of man, I send you to the house of Israel, to a nation of rebels who have rebelled against me. They and their fathers have transgressed against me even to this very day.
4 Og Sønnerne har stive Ansigter og haarde Hjerter; jeg sender dig til dem, og du skal sige: Saa siger den Herre HERREN!
The children are obstinate and hardhearted. I am sending you to them, and you shall tell them, 'Thus says Jehovah.'
5 Hvad enten de hører eller ej — thi de er en genstridig Slægt — skal de kende, at en Profet er kommet iblandt dem.
They, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear, (for they are a rebellious house), yet shall know that there has been a prophet among them.
6 Men du, Menneskesøn frygt ikke for dem og vær ikke ræd for deres Ord, naar du færdes mellem Nælder og Tidsler og bor blandt Skorpioner; frygt ikke for deres Ord og vær ikke ræd for deres Ansigter, thi de er en genstridig Slægt.
You, son of man, do not be afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns are with you, and you do dwell among scorpions: do not be afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.
7 Du skal tale mine Ord til dem, hvad enten de hører eller ej, thi de er en genstridig Slægt.
You shall speak my words to them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear; for they are most rebellious.
8 Og du, Menneskesøn, hør, hvad jeg taler til dig! Vær ikke genstridig som den genstridige Slægt, men luk din Mund op og slug, hvad jeg her giver dig!«
But you, son of man, hear what I tell you; do not be rebellious like that rebellious house: open your mouth, and eat that which I give you."
9 Og jeg skuede, og se, en Haand var udrakt imod mig, og i den laa en Bogrulle;
When I looked, look, a hand was put forth to me; and, look, a written scroll was in it.
10 og han rullede den op for mig, og der var skrevet paa den baade for og bag; og hvad der stod skrevet, var Klage, Suk og Ve.
He spread it before me: and it was written within and without; and there were written in it lamentations, and mourning, and woe.
