Ezekiel 32

1 I det tolvte Aar paa den første Dag i den tolvte Maaned kom HERRENS Ord til mig saaledes:

And it came to pass in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, on the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

2 Menneskesøn, istem en Klagesang over Farao, Ægyptens Konge, og sig til ham: Du Folkenes Løve, det er ude med dig! Du var som en Drage i Havet med prustende Næse, med Fødderne plumred du Vandet, oproded dets Strømme.

Son of man, take up a lamentation for Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and say unto him, Thou didst deem thyself like a young lion among the nations: while thou art as a crocodile in the seas; and thou issuedst forth with thy rivers, and madest turbid the waters with thy feet, and didst stir up their rivers.

3 Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Jeg breder mit Garn over dig ved en Sværm af mange Folk, de skal drage dig op i mit Net.

Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will therefore spread out my net over thee through the assemblage of many people, and they shall draw thee up in my net.

4 Jeg kaster dig paa Land og slænger dig hen paa Marken, lader alle Himlens Fugle slaa sig ned paa dig og al Jordens Dyr blive mætte ved dig.

Then will I cast thee upon the land, upon the open field will I hurl thee, and will cause all the fowls of the heaven to dwell upon thee, and I will satisfy off thee the beasts of all the earth.

5 Jeg lægger dit Kød paa Bjergene, fylder Dalene op med dit Aadsel,

And I will lay thy flesh upon the mountains, and fill the valleys with thy carcass.

6 vander med dit Udflaad Jorden lige til Bjergene, Kløfterne skal fyldes af dit Blod.

I will also saturate the land wherein thou swimmest with thy blood, even to the mountains; and the ravines shall be full of thee.

7 Jeg skjuler Himlen, naar du slukkes, klæder dens Stjerner i Sorg, jeg skjuler Solen i Skyer, og Maanen skinner ej mer.

And I will cover up the heavens, when thou art quenched, and make their stars obscure: the sun will I cover up with a cloud, and the moon shall not let shine her light.

8 Alle Himmellys klæder jeg i Sorg for dig, hyller dit Land i Mørke, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.

All the light-dispensing lights of the heavens—these will I make obscure because of thee, and I will lay darkness upon thy land, saith the Lord Eternal.

9 Jeg volder mange Folkeslags Hjerter Kvide, naar jeg bringer dine Fanger til Folkene, til Lande du ikke kender;

And I will aggrieve the heart of many people, when I bring those who are broken off from thee among the nations, into countries which thou hast not known.

10 jeg lader mange Folkeslag stivne af Rædsel over dig, og deres Konger skal gyse over dig, naar jeg svinger mit Sværd for deres Ansigter; de skal ængstes uafbrudt, hver for sit Liv, den Dag du falder.

Yea, I will make many people amazed at thee, and on their kings the hair shall stand on end because of thee, when I brandish my sword before their faces: and they shall tremble at every moment, every man for his own life, on the day of thy downfall.

11 Thi saa siger den Herre HERREN: Babels Konges Sværd skal komme over dig.

For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, The sword of the king of Babylon shall come over thee.

12 Jeg styrter din Hob ved Heltes Sværd, de grummeste af alle Folkene; de hærger Ægyptens Pragt, og al dets Hob lægges øde.

By the swords of the mighty will I cause thy multitude to fall, the fiercest of nations are all of them: and they shall destroy the pride of Egypt, and all her multitude shall be annihilated.

13 Jeg udrydder alt dets Kvæg ved de mange Vande, Menneskefod skal ej plumre dem mer, ej Dyreklov rode dem op;

And I will cause to vanish all her beasts from beside the great waters; and the foot of man shall not make them turbid any more, nor shall the hoofs of beasts make them turbid.

14 saa lader jeg Vandene klares og Strømmene flyde som Olie — lyder det fra den Herre HERREN —

Then will I make clear their waters, and cause their rivers to flow like oil, saith the Lord Eternal;

15 naar jeg gør Ægypten til Ørk, saa Landet og dets Fylde er øde, naar jeg nedhugger alle, som bor der, saa de kender, at jeg er HERREN.

When I render the land of Egypt desolate and wasted, the country bereft of what now filleth it, when I smite all those that dwell therein: and they shall know that I am the Lord.

16 Dette er en Klagesang, som du skal kvæde; Folkenes Kvinder skal kvæde den; over Ægypten og al dets larmende Hob skal de kvæde den, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.

This is the lamentation wherewith they shall lament for her; the daughters of the nations shall lament for her: for Egypt, and for all her multitude, shall they lament with it, saith the Lord Eternal.

17 I det tolvte Aar paa den femtende Dag i ... Maaned kom HERRENS Ord til mig saaledes:

And it came to pass in the twelfth year, on the fifteenth day of the month, that the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

18 Menneskesøn, klag over Ægyptens larmende Hob; syng Klagesang over den, du og Folkenes Kvinder! Far ned i Underverdenen blandt dem, der steg ned i Dybet!

Son of man, moan for the multitude of Egypt, and say that it shall go down, yea, she, and the daughters of powerful nations, unto the land of the nether world, with those that go down to the pit.

19 Er du lifligere end nogen anden? Stig ned og lig blandt de uomskaarne!

Whom dost thou surpass in loveliness? go down [then], and be thou laid with the [other] uncircumcised.

20 Midt iblandt sværdslagne skal han segne, og al hans larmende Hob skal ligge hos ham.

In the midst of those that are slain by the sword shall they fall: to the sword is she given up; drag her away and all her multitudes.

21 Heltenes Førere skal tale til ham midt i Dødsriget: »Er du mægtigere end nogen anden? Stig ned og lig blandt de uomskaarne!« (Sheol h7585)

Then will speak of him the strongest among the mighty out of the midst of the nether world with those that once helped him, They are gone down, there lie the uncircumcised, —slain by the sword. (Sheol h7585)

22 Der er Assur og hele hans Flok rundt om hans Grav; alle er de dræbt, faldet for Sværd;

There is Asshur and all his assemblage; round about him are his graves; all of them the slain that are fallen by the sword;

23 han fik sin Grav i en Krog af Dybet, og hans Flok ligger rundt om hans Grav; alle er de dræbt, faldet for Sværd, de, som spredte Rædsel i de levendes Land.

Whose graves are placed in the lowest depth of the pit, and his assemblage is round about his grave; all of them are slain, fallen by the sword, who once spread terror in the land of the living.

24 Der er Elam med al sin larmende Hob rundt om sin Grav; alle er de dræbt, faldet før Sværd, og de for uomskaarne ned i Underverdenen, de, som spredte Rædsel i de levendes Land; nu bærer de deres Skændsel blandt dem, der steg ned i Dybet.

There is 'Elam and all her multitude round about her grave, all of them the slain, that are fallen by the sword, who are gone down uncircumcised into the land of the nether world, who once spread their terror in the land of the living; and they have borne their confusion with those that go down to the pit.

25 Iblandt dræbte fik han et Leje med al sin larmende Hob rundt om sin Grav; alle er de uomskaarne, sværdslagne; thi Rædsel for dem bredte sig i de levendes Land; nu bærer de deres Skændsel blandt dem, der steg ned i Dybet; de lagdes blandt dræbte.

In the midst of the slain have they set a couch for her with all her multitude; all round about are her graves; all of them are uncircumcised, slain by the sword; because their terror was once spread in the land of the living; and they have borne their confusion with those that go down to the pit: in the midst of the slain was she placed.

26 Der er Mesjek og Tubal med al deres larmende Hob rundt om deres Grave; alle er de uomskaarne, sværdslagne; thi de spredte Rædsel i de levendes Land;

There is Meshech, Thubal, and all her multitude; all round about her are her graves: all of them are the uncircumcised, slain by the sword; because they once spread their terror in the land of the living.

27 de kom ikke til at ligge hos Heltene, Fortidens Kæmper, som for til Dødsriget i deres Rustninger, hvis Sværd blev lagt under deres Hoveder, og hvis Skjolde dækkede deres Knogler; thi Rædsel for Heltene raadede i de levendes Land. (Sheol h7585)

And those who are fallen of the uncircumcised shall not lie with the mighty, who are gone down to the nether world with their weapons of war, while men laid their swords under their heads, and the [instruments of] their iniquities were upon their bones; for the terror of the mighty was in the land of the living. (Sheol h7585)

28 Ogsaa du skal ligge knust imellem de uomskaarne, blandt de sværdslagne.

But thou shalt be broken in the midst of the uncircumcised, and shalt lie with those that are slain by the sword.

29 Der er Edom med sine Konger og alle sine Fyrster, som fik deres Grave hos de sværdslagne; hos de uomskaarne ligger de, hos dem, der steg ned i Dybet.

There are Edom, her kings, and all her princes, who are laid despite their prowess by those that are slain by the sword: they shall lie with the uncircumcised, and with those that go down to the pit.

30 Der er Nordens Herskere alle sammen og alle Zidoniere, som for ned til de dræbte, beskæmmede trods den Rædsel, de spredte ved deres Heltekraft; de ligger uomskaarne blandt de sværdslagne, de bærer deres Skændsel blandt dem, der steg ned i Dybet.

There are the chieftains of the north, all of them, and all the Zidonians, who are gone down with the slain: despite the terror they excited through their prowess are they made ashamed; and they lie uncircumcised with those that are slain by the sword, and bear their confusion with those that go down to the pit.

31 Dem ser Farao og trøster sig over al sin larmende Hob, lyder det fra HERREN.

These shall Pharaoh see, and he shall be comforted over all his multitude: slain by the sword are Pharaoh and all his army, saith the Lord Eternal.

32 Thi han spredte Rædsel i de levendes Land, men nu ligger han imellem uomskaarne, blandt de sværdslagne, Farao med al sin larmende Hob, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.

For I spread my terror in the land of the living; and he shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised with those that are slain by the sword, —yea, Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord Eternal.
