Ezekiel 7
1 Og HERRENS Ord kom til mig saaledes:
The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
2 Du, Menneskesøn, sig: Saa siger den Herre HERREN til Israels Land: Enden kommer, Enden kommer over Landet vidt og bredt!
“You, son of man—the Lord Yahweh says this to the land of Israel.” 'An end! An end has come to the four borders of the land.
3 Nu kommer Enden over dig, og jeg sender min Vrede imod dig og dømmer dig efter dine Veje og gengælder dig alle dine Vederstyggeligheder.
Now the end is upon you, for I am sending out my wrath on you, and I will judge you according to your ways; then I will bring all your abominations upon you.
4 Jeg viser dig ingen Medynk eller Skaansel, men gengælder dig dine Veje, og dine Vederstyggeligheder skal blive i din Midte; og du skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
For my eyes will not pity you, and I will not spare you. Instead, I will bring your ways upon you, and your abominations will be in your midst, so you will know that I am Yahweh.
5 Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Ulykke følger paa Ulykke; se, det kommer!
The Lord Yahweh says this: Disaster! A unique disaster! Behold, it is coming.
6 Enden kommer, Enden kommer; den er vaagnet og tager Sigte paa dig; se, det kommer!
An end is surely coming. The end has woken up against you. Behold, it is coming!
7 Turen kommer til dig, som bor i Landet; Tiden er inde, Dagen er nær, en Dag med Rædsel og ikke med Frydeskrig paa Bjergene.
Your doom is coming to you who inhabit the land. The time has come; the day of destruction is near, and the mountains will no longer be joyful.
8 Nu udøser jeg snart min Harme over dig og udtømmer min Vrede paa dig, dømmer dig efter dine Veje og gengælder dig alle dine Vederstyggeligheder.
Now before long I will pour out my fury against you and fill up my wrath upon you when I judge you according to your ways and bring all your abominations upon you.
9 Jeg viser dig ingen Medynk eller Skaansel, men gengælder dig dine Veje, og dine Vederstyggeligheder skal blive i din Midte; og I skal kende, at jeg, HERREN, er den, som slaar.
For my eye will not look compassionately, and I will not spare you. As you have done, I will do to you; and your abominations will be in your midst so you will know that I am Yahweh, the one punishing you.
10 Se, Dagen! Se, det kommer; Turen kommer til dig! Riset blomstrer, Overmodet grønnes.
Behold, the day! Behold, it is coming! Doom has gone out! The rod has blossomed, arrogance has budded!
11 Vold rejser sig til et Ris over Gudløshed; der bliver intet tilbage af dem, intet af deres larmende Hob, intet af deres Gods, og der er ingen Herlighed iblandt dem.
Violence has grown up into a rod of wickedness— none of them, and none of their multitude, none of their wealth, and none of their importance will last!
12 Tiden er inde, Dagen er nær; Køberen skal ikke glæde sig og Sælgeren ikke sørge, thi Vrede kommer over al den larmende Hob derinde.
The time is coming; the day has come close. Do not let the buyer rejoice, nor the seller mourn, since my anger is on the entire multitude!
13 Thi Sælgeren skal ikke vende tilbage til det solgte, om han end bliver i Live; thi Synet om al den larmende Hob derinde tages ikke tilbage, og ingen skal styrke sit Liv ved sin Misgerning.
For the seller will not return to the land he sold as long as they both live, because the vision concerning the entire multitude will not be reversed; and because of their sins, none of them will be strengthened!
14 Man støder i Hornet og gør alt rede, men ingen drager i krig; thi min Vrede kommer over al den larmende Hob derinde.
They have blown the trumpet and made everything ready, but there is no one marching to battle; since my anger is on the entire multitude.
15 Sværd ude og Pest og Hunger inde! De, der er i Marken, omkommer for Sværd, og dem, der er i Byen, fortærer Hunger og Pest.
The sword is on the outside, and plague and famine are inside the building. Those who are in the field will die by the sword, while famine and plague will consume those in the city.
16 Og selv om nogle af dem undslipper og naar op i Bjergene som Kløfternes Duer, skal de alle dø, hver for sin Misgerning.
But some survivors will escape from among them, and they will go to the mountains. Like doves of the valleys, all of them will moan—each man for his iniquity.
17 Alle Hænder er slappe, alle Knæ flyder som Vand.
Every hand will falter and every knee will be weak as water,
18 De klæder sig i Sæk, og Rædsel omhyller dem; alle Ansigter er skamfulde, alle Hoveder skaldede.
and they will wear sackcloth, and terror will cover them; and shame will be on every face, and baldness on all of their heads.
19 Deres Sølv kaster de ud paa Gaden, deres Guld regnes for Snavs; deres Sølv og Guld kan ikke redde dem paa HERRENS Vredes Dag; de kan ikke stille deres Hunger eller fylde deres Bug dermed, thi det var dem Aarsag til Skyld.
They will throw their silver into the streets and their gold will be like refuse. Their silver and their gold will not be able to rescue them in the day of Yahweh's rage. Their lives will not be saved, and their hunger will not be satisfied, because their iniquity has become a stumbling block.
20 I dets straalende Pragt satte de deres Stolthed, og deres vederstyggelige Billeder, deres væmmelige Guder, lavede de deraf: derfor gør jeg det til Snavs for dem.
In their pride they took the beauty of his jeweled ornaments, and with them they made their idolatrous figures, and their detestable things. Therefore, I am turning these into an unclean thing to them.
21 Jeg giver det som Bytte i de fremmedes Haand og som Rov til de mest gudløse paa Jorden, og de skal vanhellige det.
Then I will give those things into the hand of strangers as plunder and to the wicked of the earth as plunder, and they will defile them.
22 Jeg vender mit Aasyn fra dem og man skal vanhellige mit Klenodie, Ransmænd skal trænge ind og vanhellige det.
Then I will turn my face away from them when they defile my cherished place; bandits will enter it and defile it.
23 Gør Lænkerne rede! Thi Landet er fuldt af Blodskyld og Byen af Vold.
Make a chain, because the land is filled with the judgment of blood, and the city is full of violence.
24 Jeg henter de værste af Folkene, og de skal tage Husene i Eje; jeg gør Ende paa de mægtiges Stolthed, og deres Helligdomme skal vanhelliges.
So I will bring the most wicked of the nations, and they will possess their houses, and I will bring an end to the pride of the mighty, for their holy places will be defiled!
25 Der opstaar Angst; man søger Redning, men finder den ikke.
Fear will come! They will seek peace, but there will be none.
26 Uheld følger paa Uheld, Rygte paa Rygte; man skal tigge Profeten om et Syn, Præsten kommer til kort med Vejledning og de Ældste med Raad.
Disaster upon disaster will come, and there will be rumor after rumor. Then they will seek a vision from the prophet, but the law will perish from the priest and advice from the elders.
27 Kongen sørger, Fyrsten hyller sig i Rædsel, og Landboernes Hænder lammes af Forfærdelse. Jeg gør med dem efter deres Færd og dømmer dem, som de fortjener; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
The king will mourn and the prince will dress in despair, while the hands of the people of the land will tremble in fear. According to their own ways I will do this to them! I will judge them with their own standards until they know that I am Yahweh.'”
