Ezekiel 6
1 Og HERRENS Ord kom til mig saaledes:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 Menneskesøn, vend dit Ansigt mod Israels Bjerge, profeter imod dem
Son of man, let your face be turned to the mountains of Israel, and be a prophet to them, and say,
3 og sig: Israels Bjerge, hør den Herre HERRENS Ord! Saa siger den Herre HERREN til Bjergene og Højene, til Kløfterne og Dalene: Se, jeg sender Sværd over eder og tilintetgør eders Offerhøje.
You mountains of Israel, give ear to the words of the Lord: this is what the Lord has said to the mountains and the hills, to the waterways and the valleys: See, I, even I, am sending on you a sword for the destruction of your high places.
4 Eders Altre skal ødelægges, eders Solstøtter sønderbrydes, og eders dræbte lader jeg segne foran eders Afgudsbilleder;
And your altars will be made waste, and your sun-images will be broken: and I will have your dead men placed before your images.
5 jeg kaster Israeliternes Lig hen for deres Afgudsbilleder og strør eders Ben rundt om eders Altre.
And I will put the dead bodies of the children of Israel in front of their images, sending your bones in all directions about your altars.
6 Overalt hvor I bor, skal Byerne lægges øde og Offerhøjene gaa til Grunde, for at eders Altre kan lægges øde og gaa til Grunde, eders Afgudsbilleder sønderbrydes og udryddes, eders Solstøtter hugges om og eders Værker tilintetgøres.
In all your living-places the towns will become broken walls, and the high places made waste; so that your altars may be broken down and made waste, and your images broken and ended, and so that your sun-images may be cut down and your works rubbed out.
7 Mandefald skal ske iblandt eder, og I skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
And the dead will be falling down among you, and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
8 Men en Rest lader jeg blive tilbage, idet nogle af eder undslipper fra Sværdet blandt Folkene, naar I spredes i Landene,
But still, I will keep a small band safe from the sword among the nations, when you are sent wandering among the countries.
9 og de undslupne skal komme mig i Hu blandt Folkene, hvor de er Fanger; jeg sønderbryder deres bolerske Hjerter, som faldt fra mig, og deres bolerske Øjne, som hang ved deres Afgudsbilleder; og de skal væmmes ved sig selv over alt det onde, de har gjort, over alle deres Vederstyggeligheder.
And those of you who are kept safe will have me in mind among the nations where they have been taken away as prisoners, how I sent punishment on their hearts which were untrue to me, and on their eyes which were turned to their false gods: and they will be full of hate for themselves because of the evil things which they have done in all their disgusting ways.
10 Og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN; det var ikke tomme Ord, naar jeg talede om at gøre den Ulykke paa dem.
And they will be certain that I am the Lord: not for nothing did I say that I would do this evil to them.
11 Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Slaa Hænderne sammen, stamp med Foden og raab Ve over alle Israels Hus's grimme Vederstyggeligheder! De skal falde for Sværd, Hunger og Pest.
This is what the Lord has said: Give blows with your hand, stamping with your foot, and say, O sorrow! because of all the evil and disgusting ways of the children of Israel: for death will overtake them by the sword and through need of food and by disease.
12 Den, som er langt borte, skal dø af Pest; den, som er nær, skal falde for Sværd; og den, som levnes og reddes, skal dø af Hunger; saaledes udtømmer jeg min Vrede over dem.
He who is far away will come to his death by disease; he who is near will be put to the sword; he who is shut up will come to his death through need of food; and I will give full effect to my passion against them.
13 De skal kende, at jeg er HERREN, naar deres dræbte ligger midt iblandt deres Afgudsbilleder rundt om deres Altre paa hver høj Bakke, paa alle Bjergenes Tinder, under hvert grønt Træ og hver løvrig Eg, der, hvor de opsendte liflig Duft til deres Afgudsbilleder.
And you will be certain that I am the Lord, when their dead men are stretched among their images round about their altars on every high hill, on all the tops of the mountains, and under every branching tree, and under every thick oak-tree, the places where they made sweet smells to all their images.
14 Jeg udrækker Haanden imod dem og gør Landet øde og tomt lige fra Ørkenen til Ribla, overalt hvor de bor; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
And my hand will be stretched out against them, making the land waste and unpeopled, from the waste land to Riblah, through all their living-places: and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
