Ezekiel 26
1 I det ellevte Aar paa den første Dag i ... Maaned kom HERRENS Ord til mig saaledes:
And it came to pass in the eleventh year, on the first of the month, [that] the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
2 Menneskesøn! Fordi Tyrus siger om Jerusalem: »Ha, ha! Folkeslagenes Port er knust; den staar mig aaben; den var rig, men er nu øde!«
Son of man, because Tyre hath said against Jerusalem, Aha, she is broken, the gate of the peoples! she is turned unto me: I shall be replenished [now] she is laid waste;
3 derfor, saa siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg kommer over dig, Tyrus, og fører mange Folk imod dig, som naar Havet rejser sine Bølger.
therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I am against thee, Tyre, and will cause many nations to come up against thee, as the sea causeth its waves to come up.
4 De skal ødelægge Tyrus's Mure og nedbryde Taarnene. Jeg fejer Muldet bort og gør Tyrus til nøgen Klippe;
And they shall destroy the walls of Tyre, and break down her towers. And I will scrape her dust from her, and make her a bare rock.
5 en Tørreplads for Net skal det være ude i Havet, saa sandt jeg har talet, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN; og det skal blive et Bytte for Folkene.
She shall be [a place] for the spreading of nets in the midst of the sea; for I have spoken [it], saith the Lord Jehovah; and she shall become a spoil for the nations.
6 Dets Døtre paa Land skal hugges ned med Sværd; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
And her daughters that are in the field shall be slain by the sword; and they shall know that I [am] Jehovah.
7 Thi saa siger den Herre HERREN: Se, nordenfra fører jeg mod Tyrus Kong Nebukadrezar af Babel, Kongernes Konge, med Heste, Vogne og Ryttere og en vældig Hærskare.
For thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I will bring from the north, against Tyre, Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, the king of kings, with horses, and with chariots, and with horsemen, and an assemblage, and much people.
8 Dine Døtre paa Land skal han hugge ned med Sværd; han skal bygge Belejringstaarne, opkaste Stormvold og rejse Skjoldtag imod dig;
He shall slay with the sword thy daughters in the field, and he shall make forts against thee, and cast up a mound against thee, and lift up the target against thee;
9 sin Murbrækkers Stød skal han rette imod dine Mure og nedbryde dine Taarne med sine Sværd.
and he shall set his engines of attack against thy walls, and with his spikes he shall break down thy towers.
10 Hans Heste skal myldre, saa Støvet, de rejser, skjuler dig; Ryttere, Hjul og Vogne skal larme, saa dine Mure ryster, naar han drager igennem dine Porte, som naar man trænger ind i en stormet By.
By reason of the abundance of his horses their dust shall cover thee; thy walls shall shake at the noise of the horsemen, and of the wheels, and of the chariots, when he shall enter through thy gates, as a city is entered into, wherein is made a breach.
11 Med sine Hestes Hove skal han nedtrampe alle dine Gader; dit Folk skal han hugge ned med Sværdet og styrte dine stolte Støtter til Jorden.
With the hoofs of his horses shall he tread down all thy streets; he shall slay thy people by the sword, and the pillars of thy strength shall go down to the ground.
12 De skal rane din Rigdom og gøre dine Handelsvarer til Bytte; de skal nedbryde dine Mure og nedrive dine herlige Huse: Sten, Tømmer og Ler skal de kaste i Vandet.
And they shall make a spoil of thy riches, and make a prey of thy wares; and they shall break down thy walls, and destroy thy pleasant houses; and they shall lay thy stones and thy timber and thy dust in the midst of the waters.
13 Jeg gør Ende paa dine brusende Sange, og dine Citres Klang skal ikke mere høres.
And I will cause the noise of thy songs to cease; and the sound of thy harps shall be no more heard.
14 Jeg gør dig til nøgen Klippe, en Tørreplads for Net skal du være. Aldrig mere skal du bygges, saa sandt jeg, HERREN, har talet, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
And I will make thee a bare rock; thou shalt be [a place] for the spreading of nets; thou shalt be built no more: for I Jehovah have spoken [it], saith the Lord Jehovah.
15 Saa siger den Herre HERREN til Tyrus: For sandt, ved dit drønende Fald, ved de saaredes Stønnen, naar Sværd hugger løs i din Midte, skal Strandene skælve.
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah to Tyre: Shall not the isles shake at the sound of thy fall, when the wounded groan, when the slaughter is made in the midst of thee?
16 Ned fra sin Trone stiger hver Fyrste ved Havet, Kapperne lægger de bort, aflægger de brogede Klæder og klæder sig i Sorg; de sidder paa Jorden og skælver uafbrudt, slagne af Rædsel over dig.
And all the princes of the sea shall come down from their thrones, and lay aside their robes, and put off their broidered garments: they shall clothe themselves with trembling, they shall sit upon the ground, and shall tremble [every] moment, and be astonied because of thee.
17 De synger en Klagesang om dig og siger til dig: Ak, du gik under, forsvandt fra Havet, du fejrede By, du, som var vældig paa Havet, du og dine Borgere, du, der jog Rædsel i alle, som boede der!
And they shall take up a lamentation for thee, and say to thee, How hast thou perished, that wast inhabited from the seas, O renowned city, which wast strong in the sea, — she and her inhabitants, who caused their terror to be on all them that dwell therein!
18 Nu gribes Strandene af Skælven, den Dag du falder, og Havets Øer forfærdes over din Udgang!
Now shall the isles tremble in the day of thy fall; and the isles that are in the sea shall be troubled at thy departure.
19 Thi saa siger den Herre HERREN: Naar jeg gør dig til en øde By og lige med affolkede Byer, naar jeg fører Verdensdybet over dig, og de vældige Vande skjuler dig,
For thus saith the Lord Jehovah: When I shall make thee a desolate city, like the cities that are not inhabited; when I bring up the deep upon thee, and the great waters cover thee:
20 saa støder jeg dig ned iblandt dem, der steg ned i Dybet, blandt Fortidens Folk, og lader dig ligge i Underverdenen som ældgamle Ruiner blandt dem, der steg ned i Dybet, for at du aldrig mere skal bebos eller rejse dig i de levendes Land;
then will I bring thee down, with them that go down to the pit, to the people of old time, and will cause thee to dwell in the lower parts of the earth, in places desolate of old, with them that go down to the pit, that thou be not inhabited; and I will set glory in the land of the living.
21 jeg giver dig hen til brat Undergang, og det skal være ude med dig; selv om der søges efter dig, skal du aldrig i Evighed findes, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
And I will make thee a terror, and thou shalt be no [more]; and thou shalt be sought for, and shalt never be found again, for ever, saith the Lord Jehovah.
