Ezekiel 35
1 HERRENS Ord kom til mig saaledes:
Moreover, the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 Menneskesøn, vend dit Ansigt mod Se'irs Bjergland og profeter imod det
“Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir and prophesy against it,
3 og sig til det: Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg kommer over dig, Se'irs Bjergland, og løfter min Haand imod dig; jeg gør dig til Ørk og Ødemark,
and declare that this is what the Lord GOD says: Behold, I am against you, O Mount Seir. I will stretch out My hand against you and make you a desolate waste.
4 dine Byer lægger jeg i Grus. Du selv skal blive til Ørk og kende, at jeg er HERREN.
I will turn your cities into ruins, and you will become a desolation. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
5 Fordi du nærede evigt Had og i Nødens Stund overgav Israeliterne til Sværdet, da deres Misgerning var fuldmoden,
Because you harbored an ancient hatred and delivered the Israelites over to the sword in the time of their disaster at the final stage of their punishment,
6 derfor, saa sandt jeg lever, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN: Jeg gør dig til Blod, og Blod skal forfølge dig; sandelig, du forbrød dig ved Blod, og Blod skal forfølge dig.
therefore as surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, I will give you over to bloodshed and it will pursue you. Since you did not hate bloodshed, it will pursue you.
7 Jeg gør Se'irs Bjergland til Ørk og Ødemark og udrydder deraf enhver, som kommer og gaar;
I will make Mount Seir a desolate waste and will cut off from it those who come and go.
8 jeg fylder dets Bjerge med dræbte; paa dine Høje og i dine Dale og Kløfter skal de sværdslagne falde.
I will fill its mountains with the slain; those killed by the sword will fall on your hills, in your valleys, and in all your ravines.
9 Jeg gør dig til Ørk for evigt, dine Byer skal ikke bebos; og du skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
I will make you a perpetual desolation, and your cities will not be inhabited. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
10 Fordi du sagde: »De tvende Folk og de tvende Lande skal tilhøre mig, jeg vil tage dem i Eje!« skønt HERREN var der,
Because you have said, ‘These two nations and countries will be ours, and we will possess them,’ even though the LORD was there,
11 derfor, saa sandt jeg lever, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN: Jeg vil gøre med dig efter den Vrede og det Nid, du hadefuldt udviste imod dem, og jeg vil give mig til Hende for dig, naar jeg dømmer dig;
therefore as surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, I will treat you according to the anger and jealousy you showed in your hatred against them, and I will make Myself known among them when I judge you.
12 og du skal kende, at jeg er HERREN. Jeg har hørt al den Spot, du udslyngede mod Israels Bjerge: »De er ødelagt, os er de givet til Føde!«
Then you will know that I, the LORD, have heard every contemptuous word you uttered against the mountains of Israel when you said, ‘They are desolate; they are given to us to devour!’
13 Du gjorde dig stor imod mig med din Mund og overfusede mig med Ord; jeg hørte det.
You boasted against Me with your mouth and multiplied your words against Me. I heard it Myself!
14 Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Som det var din Glæde, at mit Land blev Ørk, saaledes vil jeg gøre med dig;
This is what the Lord GOD says: While the whole earth rejoices, I will make you desolate.
15 som det var din Glæde, at Israels Hus's Arvelod blev Ørk, saaledes vil jeg gøre med dig. Ørk skal du blive, Se'irs Bjergland og hele Edom med; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
As you rejoiced when the inheritance of the house of Israel became desolate, so will I do to you. You will become a desolation, O Mount Seir, and so will all of Edom. Then they will know that I am the LORD.
