Ezekiel 6

1 Og HERRENS Ord kom til mig saaledes:

A message from the Lord came to me that said,

2 Menneskesøn, vend dit Ansigt mod Israels Bjerge, profeter imod dem

“Son of man, face towards of Israel's mountains and prophesy against them.

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.

Tell them: Mountains of Israel, listen to the message from the Lord God! This is what the Lord God says to the mountains and the hills, to the gorges and the valleys: I'm going to attack you and destroy your high places.

4 Eders Altre skal ødelægges, eders Solstøtter sønderbrydes, og eders dræbte lader jeg segne foran eders Afgudsbilleder;

Your pagan altars will be torn down, and your incense altars will be smashed to pieces. I will kill your idol worshipers right in front of their idols.

5 jeg kaster Israeliternes Lig hen for deres Afgudsbilleder og strør eders Ben rundt om eders Altre.

I will put the dead bodies of you Israelites in front of your idols and scatter your bones around 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.

Everywhere you live, the towns will be turned into rubble and the high places torn down. Your altars will be demolished and defiled. Your idols will be smashed and completely destroyed. Your incense altars will be knocked down, and all that you made will be ruined.

7 Mandefald skal ske iblandt eder, og I skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.

People will be killed all throughout your country. Then you will know 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,

However, I will let some of you survive and scatter you among the different nations and 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.

Once they are they are there as prisoners in the nations, then the survivors will remember me. They will realize how sad they made me by their spiritual adultery as they deserted me with their eyes full of lust as they worshiped idols. They will hate themselves for the evil things they did, for all their disgusting sins.

10 Og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN; det var ikke tomme Ord, naar jeg talede om at gøre den Ulykke paa dem.

Then they will know that I am the Lord, and that I was not pretending when I warned them about bringing this disaster upon 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 God says: Hit yourself with your hands, stomp your feet, and shout out ‘Oh no!’ Do this because of all the terrible wickedness of the people of Israel. They are going to die by the sword and famine and 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.

Those living far away will die from of disease, those who are close by will be killed by the sword, and those who are left will die of starvation. This is how I will express my anger towards 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.

Then you will know that I am the Lord—when the idol worshipers lie dead among their idols and altars on the top of every hill and mountain, and under every green tree and large oak. These were the pagan shrines where they offered sweet-smelling incense to all their idols.

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.

I'm going to lift up my hand to punish them. In every place they live I will make their country a wasteland, all the way from the desert in the south to Diblah in the north. Then they will know that I am the Lord.”
