5 Mosebog 32
1 Lyt til, I Himle, lad mig tale, Jorden høre mine Ord!
Sh'ma ·Hear obey·, oh heavens, and I will speak! Let the earth hear the words of my mouth!
2 Lad dryppe som Regn min Lære, lad flyde som Dug mit Ord, som Regnskyl på unge Spirer, som Regnens Dråber på Græs.
My doctrine will drop as the rain. My speech will condense as the dew, as the misty rain on the tender grass, as the showers on the herb.
3 Thi HERRENs Navn vil jeg forkynde, Ære skal I give vor Gud!
For I will proclaim Adonai’s name. Ascribe greatness to our God!
4 Han er Klippen, fuldkomment hans Værk, thi alle hans Veje er Retfærd! En trofast Gud, uden Svig, retfærdig og sanddru er Han.
The Rock, his work is perfect, for all his ways are mishpat ·just·. A God of faithfulness who does no wrong, just and right is he.
5 Skændselsmennesker sveg ham, en forvent og vanartet Slægt.
They have dealt corruptly with him. They are not his children, because of their defect. They are a perverse and crooked generation.
6 Er det sådan, I lønner HERREN? Du tåbelige, uvise Folk! Er han ej din Fader og Skaber, den, som gjorde og danned dig?
Is this the way you repay Adonai, foolish and unwise people? Is not he your father who has bought you? He has made you and established you.
7 Kom Fortidens Dage i Hu, agt på henfarne Slægters År; spørg din Fader, han skal berette, dine gamle, de skal fortælle dig!
Remember the days of old. Consider the years of many generations. Ask your father, and he will show you; your elders, and they will tell you.
8 Da den Højeste gav Folkene Eje, satte Skel mellem Menneskenes Børn, bestemte han Folkenes Grænser efter Tallet på Guds Sønner,
When haElyon [the Most High] gave to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the children of men, he set the bounds of the peoples according to the number of the children of Israel [God prevails].
9 men HERRENs Del blev Jakob, Israel hans tilmålte Lod.
For Adonai’s portion is his people. Jacob [Supplanter] is the lot of his inheritance.
10 Han fandt det i Ørkenlandet, i Ødemarken, blandt Ørkenens Hyl; han værnede det med vågent Øje og vogtede det som sin Øjesten.
He found him in a desert land, in the waste howling wilderness. He surrounded him. He cared for him. He kept him as the apple of his eye.
11 Som Ørnen, der purrer sin Yngel ud og svæver over sine Unger, løftede han det på sit Vingefang og bar det på sine Vinger.
As an eagle that stirs up her nest, that flutters over her young, he spread abroad his wings, he took them, he bore them on his feathers.
12 HERREN var dets eneste Fører, ingen fremmed Gud var hos ham.
Adonai alone led him. There was no foreign deity with him.
13 Han lod det færdes over Landets Høje, nærede det med Markens Frugter, lod det suge Honning af Klippen og Olie af Bjergets Flint,
He made him ride on the high places of the earth. He ate the increase of the field. He caused him to suck honey out of the rock, oil out of the flinty rock;
14 Surmælk fra Køer, Mælk fra Småkvæg, dertil Fedt af Lam og Vædre, af Tyre fra Basan og Bukke og Hvedens Fedme tillige, og Drueblod drak du, Vin.
butter from the herd, and milk from the flock, with fat of lambs, rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the finest of the wheat. From the blood of the grape, you drank wine.
15 Men da Jesjurun blev fed, slog han bagud, du blev fed, du blev tyk, du blev mæsket; da forskød han Gud, sin Skaber, lod hånt om sin Frelses Klippe.
But Jeshurun [Upright one] grew fat, and kicked. You have grown fat. You have grown thick. You have become sleek. Then he abandoned God who made him, and rejected the Rock of his yishu'ah ·salvation·.
16 De æggede ham med fremmede, med Vederstyggeligheder tirrede de ham;
They moved him to jealousy with strange deities. They provoked him to anger with abominations.
17 de ofred til Dæmoner, der ej er Guder, til Guder, de ej før kendte til; til nye, der nys var kommet frem, og som ej eders Fædre frygtede.
They sacrificed to demons, not God, to deities that they didn’t know, to new deities that came up recently, which your fathers didn’t dread.
18 Klippen, der avled dig, slog du af Tanke og glemte den Gud, der fødte dig!
Of the Rock who became your father, you are unmindful, and have forgotten God who gave you birth.
19 Da HERREN så det, forstødte han dem af Græmmelse over sine Børn
Adonai saw and abhorred, because of the provocation of his sons and his daughters.
20 og sagde: "Jeg vil skjule mit Åsyn for dem og se, hvad Ende det tager med dem; thi de er en bundfalsk Slægt, Børn, som er uden Troskab;
He said, “I will hide my face from them. I will see what their end will be; for they are a very perverse generation, children in whom is no faithfulness.
21 de ægged mig med det der ikke er Gud, tirrede mig ved deres tomme Gøgl: Jeg vil ægge dem med det, der ikke er et Folk, tirre dem ved et Folk af Dårer.
They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God. They have provoked me to anger with their vanities. I will provoke them to jealousy with those who are not a people. I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.
22 Thi der flammer en Ild i min Vrede, som brænder til Dødsrigets Dyb; den fortærer Jorden med dens Grøde og antænder Bjergenes Grunde. (Sheol h7585)
For a fire is kindled in my anger, that burns to the lowest Sheol ·Place of the dead·, devours the earth with its increase, and sets the foundations of the mountains on fire. (Sheol h7585)
23 Jeg hober Ulykker over dem og opbruger mine Pile imod dem.
“I will heap evils on them. I will spend my arrows on them.
24 De udmagres af Sult og hentæres af Pestglød og giftig Sot; så sender jeg Vilddyrs Tænder og Slangers Gift imod dem.
They shall be wasted with hunger, and devoured with burning heat and bitter destruction. I will send the teeth of animals on them, with the venom of vipers that glide in the dust.
25 Ude slår Sværdet Børnene ned og inde i Kamrene Rædselen både Yngling og Jomfru, diende Børn og grånende Mænd.
Outside the sword will bereave, and in the rooms, terror; on both young man and virgin, the nursing infant with the gray-haired man.
26 Jeg satte mig for at blæse dem bort og slette deres Minde blandt Mennesker ud,
I said that I would scatter them afar. I would make their memory to cease from among men;
27 men jeg frygtede, at Fjenden skulde volde mig Græmmelse, deres Avindsmænd tage fejl og tænke: Det var vor egen Hånd, der var stærk, ej HERREN, der gjorde alt dette.
were it not that I feared the provocation of the enemy, lest their adversaries should judge wrongly, lest they should say, ‘Our hand is exalted, Adonai has not done all this.’”
28 Thi de er et rådvildt Folk, og i dem er der ikke Forstand.
For they are a nation void of counsel. There is no understanding in them.
29 Var de vise, forstod de det og indså, hvad der venter dem selv!
Oh that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!
30 Hvor skulde een kunne forfølge tusind, og to slå ti Tusind på Flugt, hvis ikke deres klippe havde solgt dem og HERREN givet dem til Pris!
How could one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, and Adonai had delivered them up?
31 Thi deres Klippe er ikke som vor, det ved vore Fjender bedst selv!
For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves concede.
32 Thi fra Sodoma stammer deres Vinstok og fra Gomorras Marker; deres Druer er giftige Druer, og beske er deres Klaser;
For their vine is of the vine of Sodom [Burning], of the fields of Gomorrah [Rebellious people, Tyrants]. Their grapes are poison grapes. Their clusters are bitter.
33 som Dragegift er deres Vin, som Øglers gruelige Edder.
Their wine is the poison of serpents, the cruel venom of asps.
34 Er ej dette forvaret hos mig, forseglet i mine Gemmer
“Is not this laid up in store with me, sealed up among my treasures?
35 til Hævnens og Regnskabets Dag, den Stund, deres Fod skal vakle? Thi deres Undergangs Dag stunder til; hvad der venter dem, kommer i Hast."
Vengeance and recompense is mine, at the time when their foot slides; for the day of their calamity is at hand. Their doom rushes at them.”
36 Thi Ret skaffer HERREN sit Folk og forbarmer sig over sine Tjenere, thi han ser, deres kraft er brudt, det er ude med hver og en.
For Adonai will judge his people, and have compassion on his servants, when he sees that their power is gone; that there is no one remaining, shut up or left at large.
37 Da spørger han: "Hvor er nu deres Gud, Klippen, på hvem de forlod, sig,
He will say, “Where are their deities, the rock in which they took refuge;
38 som åd deres, Slagtofres Fedme og drak deres Drikofres Vin? Lad dem rejse sig og hjælpe eder, lad dem være eder et Skjul!
which ate the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink offering? Let them rise up and help you! Let them be your protection.
39 Erkend nu, at jeg, jeg er Gud uden anden Gud ved min Side. Jeg døder, jeg gør levende, jeg sårer, og jeg læger, "g ingen kan frelse fra min Hånd.
“See now that I myself am he. There is no elohim ·deity· with me. I kill and I make alive. I wound and I heal. There is no one who can deliver out of my hand.
40 Thi jeg løfter min Hånd mod Himlen og siger: Så sandt jeg lever evindelig,
For I lift up my hand to heaven and declare, as I live forever,
41 jeg hvæsser mit lynende Sværd, og min Hånd tager fat på Dommen, jeg hævner mig på mine Fjender, øver Gengæld mod mine Avindsmænd.
if I sharpen my glittering sword, my hand grasps it in judgment; I will take vengeance on my adversaries, and will repay those who hate me.
42 Mine Pile gør jeg drukne af Blod, og mit Sværd skal svælge i Kød, i faldnes og fangnes Blod og fjendtlige Høvdingers Hoveder!"
I will make my arrows drunk with blood. My sword shall devour flesh with the blood of the slain and the captives, from the head of the leaders of the enemy.”
43 I Folkeslag, pris hans Folk, thi han hævner sine Tjeneres Blod; han hævner sig på sine Fjender, og skaffer sit Folks Land Soning!
Rejoice, you nations, with his people, for he will avenge the blood of his servants. He will take vengeance on his adversaries, and will make atonement for his land and for his people.
44 Og Moses kom og fremsagde hele denne Sang for Folket, han og Josua, Nuns Søn.
Moses [Drawn out] came and spoke all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he and Joshua [Salvation Yah] the son of Nun.
45 Og da Moses var færdig med at fremsige alle disse Ord for hele Israel,
Moses [Drawn out] finished reciting all these words to all Israel [God prevails].
46 sagde han til dem: "Læg eder alle de Ord på Sinde, som jeg i Dag har vidnet imod eder, for at du kan pålægge dine Sønner dem, at de omhyggeligt må handle efter alle denne Lovs Bud;
He said to them, “Set your heart to all the words which I testify to you today, which you shall enjoin your children to observe to do, all the words of this Torah ·Teaching·.
47 thi det er ikke tomme Ord uden Betydning for eder, men af dem afhænger eders Liv, og ved at følge det Ord skal I få et langt Liv i det Land, som l skal ind og tage i Besiddelse efter at være gået over Jordan."
For it is no vain thing for you; because it is your life, and through this thing you shall prolong your days in the land, where you go over the Jordan [Descender] to possess it.”
48 Selv samme Dag talede HERREN til Moses og sagde:
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out] that same day, saying,
49 "Stig op på Abarimbjerget der, Nebobjerget i Moabs Land over for Jeriko, og se ud over Kana'ans Land, som jeg vil give Israelitterne i Eje!
“Go up into this mountain of Abarim, to Mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab [From father], that is across from Jericho [Fragrant, Moon]; and see the land of Canaan [Humbled], which I give to the children of Israel [God prevails] for a possession.
50 Og så skal du dø på det Bjerg, du bestiger, og samles til din Slægt, ligesom din Broder Aron døde på Bjerget Hor og samledes til sin Slægt,
Die on the mountain where you go up, and be gathered to your people, as Aaron [Light-bringer] your brother died on Mount Hor, and was gathered to his people;
51 fordi I handlede troløst imod mig iblandt Israelitterne ved Merihat Kadesjs Vand i Zins Ørken, fordi I ikke helligede mig iblandt Israelitterne.
because you trespassed against me among the children of Israel [God prevails] at the waters of Meribah [Quarreling] of Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because you didn’t uphold my holiness among the children of Israel [God prevails].
52 Thi her ovre fra skal du se ud over Landet, men du skal ikke komme derind, ind i det Land, jeg vil give Israelitterne!
For you shall see the land from a distance; but you shall not go there into the land which I give the children of Israel [God prevails].”
