Ezekiel 32
1 I det tolvte Aar paa den første Dag i den tolvte Maaned kom HERRENS Ord til mig saaledes:
In the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, in the first day of the month, “the LORD’s word came to 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 over Pharaoh king of Egypt, and tell him, “You were likened to a young lion of the nations; yet you are as a monster in the seas. You broke out with your rivers, and troubled the waters with your feet, and fouled 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.
The Lord GOD says: “I will spread out my net on you with a company of many peoples. They will bring you 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.
I will leave you on the land. I will cast you out on the open field, and will cause all the birds of the sky to settle on you. I will satisfy the animals of the whole earth with you.
5 Jeg lægger dit Kød paa Bjergene, fylder Dalene op med dit Aadsel,
I will lay your flesh on the mountains, and fill the valleys with your height.
6 vander med dit Udflaad Jorden lige til Bjergene, Kløfterne skal fyldes af dit Blod.
I will also water the land in which you swim with your blood, even to the mountains. The watercourses will be full of you.
7 Jeg skjuler Himlen, naar du slukkes, klæder dens Stjerner i Sorg, jeg skjuler Solen i Skyer, og Maanen skinner ej mer.
When I extinguish you, I will cover the heavens and make its stars dark. I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon won’t give its light.
8 Alle Himmellys klæder jeg i Sorg for dig, hyller dit Land i Mørke, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
I will make all the bright lights of the sky dark over you, and set darkness on your land,” says the Lord GOD.
9 Jeg volder mange Folkeslags Hjerter Kvide, naar jeg bringer dine Fanger til Folkene, til Lande du ikke kender;
“I will also trouble the hearts of many peoples, when I bring your destruction amongst the nations, into the countries which you have 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.
Yes, I will make many peoples amazed at you, and their kings will be horribly afraid for you, when I brandish my sword before them. They will tremble at every moment, every man for his own life, in the day of your fall.”
11 Thi saa siger den Herre HERREN: Babels Konges Sværd skal komme over dig.
For the Lord GOD says: “The sword of the king of Babylon will come on you.
12 Jeg styrter din Hob ved Heltes Sværd, de grummeste af alle Folkene; de hærger Ægyptens Pragt, og al dets Hob lægges øde.
I will cause your multitude to fall by the swords of the mighty. They are all the ruthless of the nations. They will bring the pride of Egypt to nothing, and all its multitude will be destroyed.
13 Jeg udrydder alt dets Kvæg ved de mange Vande, Menneskefod skal ej plumre dem mer, ej Dyreklov rode dem op;
I will destroy also all its animals from beside many waters. The foot of man won’t trouble them any more, nor will the hoofs of animals trouble them.
14 saa lader jeg Vandene klares og Strømmene flyde som Olie — lyder det fra den Herre HERREN —
Then I will make their waters clear, and cause their rivers to run like oil,” says the Lord GOD.
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 make the land of Egypt desolate and waste, a land destitute of that of which it was full, when I strike all those who dwell therein, then they will 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 with which they will lament. The daughters of the nations will lament with this. They will lament with it over Egypt, and over all her multitude,” says the Lord GOD.’”
17 I det tolvte Aar paa den femtende Dag i ... Maaned kom HERRENS Ord til mig saaledes:
Also in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth day of the month, the LORD’s word came to 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, wail for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them down, even her and the daughters of the famous nations, to the lower parts of the earth, with those who go down into the pit.
19 Er du lifligere end nogen anden? Stig ned og lig blandt de uomskaarne!
Whom do you pass in beauty? Go down, and be laid with the uncircumcised.
20 Midt iblandt sværdslagne skal han segne, og al hans larmende Hob skal ligge hos ham.
They will fall amongst those who are slain by the sword. She is delivered to the sword. Draw her away with 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)
The strong amongst the mighty will speak to him out of the middle of Sheol with those who help him. They have gone down. The uncircumcised lie still, 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;
“Asshur is there with all her company. Her graves are all around her. All of them are slain, 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 set in the uttermost parts of the pit, and her company is around her grave, all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who caused 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 around her grave; all of them slain, fallen by the sword, who have gone down uncircumcised into the lower parts of the earth, who caused their terror in the land of the living, and have borne their shame with those who 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.
They have made Elam a bed amongst the slain with all her multitude. Her graves are around her, all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword; for their terror was caused in the land of the living, and they have borne their shame with those who go down to the pit. He is put amongst those who are slain.
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, Tubal, and all their multitude. Their graves are around them, all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword; for they caused 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)
They will not lie with the mighty who are fallen of the uncircumcised, who have gone down to Sheol with their weapons of war and have laid their swords under their heads. Their iniquities are on their bones; for they were the terror of the mighty in the land of the living. (Sheol h7585)
28 Ogsaa du skal ligge knust imellem de uomskaarne, blandt de sværdslagne.
“But you will be broken amongst the uncircumcised, and will lie with those who 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 is Edom, her kings, and all her princes, who in their might are laid with those who are slain by the sword. They will lie with the uncircumcised, and with those who 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 princes of the north, all of them, and all the Sidonians, who have gone down with the slain. They are put to shame in the terror which they caused by their might. They lie uncircumcised with those who are slain by the sword, and bear their shame with those who go down to the pit.
31 Dem ser Farao og trøster sig over al sin larmende Hob, lyder det fra HERREN.
“Pharaoh will see them and will be comforted over all his multitude, even Pharaoh and all his army, slain by the sword,” says the Lord GOD.
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 have put his terror in the land of the living. He will be laid amongst the uncircumcised, with those who are slain by the sword, even Pharaoh and all his multitude,” says the Lord GOD.
