Ezekiel 47
1 Derpaa førte han mig tilbage til Tempelets Indgang, og se, Vand sprang ud under Tempelets Tærskel i østlig Retning, thi Templets Forside vendte mod Øst; og Vandet løb ned under Templets Sydside sønden for Alteret.
He brought me back to the door of the temple; and behold, waters flowed out from under the threshold of the temple eastward, for the front of the temple faced toward the east. The waters came down from underneath, from the right side of the temple, on the south of the altar.
2 Saa førte han mig ud gennem Nordporten og rundt udenom til den ydre Østport, og se, Vand rislede frem fra Sydsiden.
Then he brought me out by the way of the gate northward, and led me around by the way outside to the outer gate, by the way of the gate that looks toward the east. Behold, waters ran out on the right side.
3 Derpaa gik Manden ud mod Øst med en Maalesnor i Haanden, og da han havde maalt 1000 Alen, lod han mig gaa gennem Vandet, Vand til Anklerne.
When the man went out eastward with the line in his hand, he measured one thousand cubits, and he caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the ankles.
4 Da han atter havde maalt 1000 Alen, lod han mig paa ny gaa gennem Vandet, Vand til Knæene; og da han atter havde maalt 1000 Alen, lod han mig paa ny gaa gennem Vandet, som der naaede til Hoften.
Again he measured one thousand, and caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the knees. Again he measured one thousand, and caused me to pass through waters that were to the waist.
5 Da han atter havde maalt 1000 Alen, var det en Strøm, som jeg ikke kunde vade over, thi Vandet gik saa højt, at man maatte svømme over; det var en Strøm, man ikke kunde vade over,
Afterward he measured one thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass through, for the waters had risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be walked through.
6 Da sagde han til mig: »Har du set det, Menneskesøn?« Og han førte mig tilbage langs Strømmens Bred.
He said to me, “Son of man, have you seen this?” Then he brought me and caused me to return to the bank of the river.
7 Da jeg kom tilbage, se, da var der ved Strømmens Bred en stor Mængde Træer paa begge Sider;
Now when I had returned, behold, on the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other.
8 og han sagde til mig: »Dette Vand løber ud i Østerkredsen og ned i Araba, og naar det falder ud i Havet, Salthavet, bliver Vandet der sundt;
Then he said to me, “These waters flow out toward the eastern region and will go down into the Arabah. Then they will go toward the sea and flow into the sea which will be made to flow out; and the waters will be healed.
9 alle de levende Væsener, hvoraf det vrimler, skal leve, overalt hvor Strømmen kommer hen, og der skal være en stor Mængde Fisk; thi naar dette Vand kommer derhen, bliver Havvandet sundt, og alt skal leve, hvor Strømmen kommer hen.
It will happen that every living creature which swarms, in every place where the rivers come, will live. Then there will be a very great multitude of fish; for these waters have come there, and the waters of the sea will be healed, and everything will live wherever the river comes.
10 Fiskere skal staa ved det fra En-Gedi til En-Eglajim; et Sted til at udspænde Fiskegarn skal det være; dets Fisk skal være som det store Havs Fisk, saare mange.
It will happen that fishermen will stand by it. From En Gedi even to En Eglaim will be a place for the spreading of nets. Their fish will be after their kinds, as the fish of the great sea, exceedingly many.
11 Men dets Sumpe og Vandhuller skal ikke blive sunde; af dem skal udvindes Salt.
But its swamps and marshes will not be healed. They will be given up to salt.
12 Paa begge Flodens Bredder skal der vokse alle Haande Frugttræer, hvis Blade ikke falder af, og hvis Frugter aldrig faar Ende; hver Maaned bærer de nye Frugter; thi dens Vand udspringer i Helligdommen. Frugterne skal tjene til Føde og Bladene til Lægedom.«
By the river banks, on both sides, will grow every tree for food, whose leaf won’t wither, neither will its fruit fail. It will produce new fruit every month, because its waters issue out of the sanctuary. Its fruit will be for food, and its leaf for healing.”
13 Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Dette er den Grænse, inden for hvilken I skal udskifte Landet imellem eder efter Israels tolv Stammer; Josef skal have to Lodder.
The Lord GOD says: “This shall be the border by which you shall divide the land for inheritance according to the twelve tribes of Israel. Joseph shall have two portions.
14 I skal alle uden Undtagelse tage det Land i Eje, som jeg med løftet Haand svor at give eders Fædre; det skal nu tilfalde eder som Arvelod.
You shall inherit it, one as well as another; for I swore to give it to your fathers. This land will fall to you for inheritance.
15 Saaledes skal Landets Nordgrænse være: Fra det store Hav i Retning af Hetlon til det Sted, hvor Vejen gaar til Zedad,
“This shall be the border of the land: “On the north side, from the great sea, by the way of Hethlon, to the entrance of Zedad;
16 Hamat, Berota, Sibrajim, mellem Damaskus's og Hamats Omraader, Hazar-Enon ved Haurans Grænse.
Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim (which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath), to Hazer Hatticon, which is by the border of Hauran.
17 Grænsen gaar fra det store Hav til Hazar-Enon, saaledes at Damaskus's Omraade ligger norden for ved Siden af Hamat. Det er Nordgrænsen.
The border from the sea shall be Hazar Enon at the border of Damascus; and on the north northward is the border of Hamath. This is the north side.
18 Østgrænsen: Fra Hazar-Enon mellem Hauran og Damaskus danner Jordan Grænse mellem Gilead og Israels Land til Havet i Øst, hen til Tamar. Det er Østgrænsen.
“The east side, between Hauran, Damascus, Gilead, and Eretz-Israel, shall be the Jordan; from the north border to the east sea you shall measure. This is the east side.
19 Sydgrænsen: Fra Tamar over Meribas Vand ved Kadesj til Bækken, ud til det store Hav. Det er Sydgrænsen.
“The south side southward shall be from Tamar as far as the waters of Meriboth Kadesh, to the brook, to the great sea. This is the south side southward.
20 Vestgrænsen: Det store Hav danner Grænse til tværs over for det Sted, hvor Vejen gaar til Hamat. Det er Vestgrænsen.
“The west side shall be the great sea, from the south border as far as opposite the entrance of Hamath. This is the west side.
21 Dette Land skal I udskifte iblandt eder efter Israels Stammer;
“So you shall divide this land to yourselves according to the tribes of Israel.
22 I skal ved Lodkastning udskifte det som Arvelod mellem eder og de fremmede, som bor iblandt eder og der har avlet Sønner og Døtre; de skal være eder som ind fødte Israeliter og kaste Lod med eder om Arvelod blandt Israels Stammer.
You shall divide it by lot for an inheritance to you and to the aliens who live among you, who will father children among you. Then they shall be to you as the native-born among the children of Israel. They shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.
23 I den Stamme, hvor den fremmede bor, skal I give ham hans Arvelod, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
In whatever tribe the stranger lives, there you shall give him his inheritance,” says the Lord GOD.
