Ezekiel 12
1 HERRENs Ord kom til mig således:
The word of the LORD also came to me, saying,
2 Menneskesøn! Du bor midt i den genstridige Slægt, som har Øjne at se med, men ikke ser, og Ører at høre med, men ikke hører, thi de er en genstridig Slægt.
"Son of man, you dwell in the midst of the rebellious house, who have eyes to see, and do not see, who have ears to hear, and do not hear; for they are a rebellious house.
3 Men du, Menneskesøn, udrust dig ved højlys Dag i deres Påsyn som en, der drager i Landflygtighed, og drag så i deres Påsyn fra Stedet, hvor du bor, til et andet Sted! Måske de så får Øjnene op; thi de er en genstridig Slægt.
Therefore, you son of man, prepare your stuff for moving, and move by day in their sight; and you shall move from your place to another place in their sight: it may be they will consider, though they are a rebellious house.
4 Bær ved højlys dag i deres Påsyn dine Sager udenfor, som om du skal i Landflygtighed, men selv skal du drage bort om Aftenen i deres Påsyn som en, der drager i Landflygtighed.
You shall bring forth your baggage by day in their sight, as baggage for exile; and you shall go forth yourself at even in their sight, as when men go forth into exile.
5 Slå i deres Påsyn Hul i Væggen og drag ud derigennem;
Dig through the wall in their sight, and carry your stuff out that way.
6 tag Sagerne på Skulderen og drag ud i Bælgmørke med tilhyllet Ansigt uden at se Landet; thi jeg gør dig til et Tegn for Israels Hus!
In their sight you shall bear it on your shoulder, and carry it forth in the dark; you shall cover your face, so that you do not see the land: for I have set you for a sign to the house of Israel."
7 Og jeg gjorde, som der bødes mig: Jeg bar ved højlys Dag mine Sager udenfor, som om jeg skulde i Landflygtighed, og om Aftenen slog jeg med Hånden Hul i Væggen, og i Bælgmørke drog jeg ud; jeg tog det på Skulderen i deres Påsyn.
I did so as I was commanded: I brought forth my stuff by day, as stuff for removing, and in the even I dug through the wall with my hand; I brought it forth in the dark, and bore it on my shoulder in their sight.
8 Næste Morgen kom HERRENs Ord til mig således:
In the morning came the word of the LORD to me, saying,
9 Menneskesøn! Har Israels Hus, den genstridige Slægt, ikke spurgt dig: "Hvad gør du der?"
"Son of man, has not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said to you, 'What are you doing?'
10 Sig til dem: Så siger den Herre HERREN: Således skal det være med Fyrsten, denne Byrde i Jerusalem, og hele Israels Hus derinde.
Say to them, 'Thus says the LORD: This burden concerns the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel among whom they are.'
11 Sig: Jeg er eder et Tegn; som jeg har gjort, skal der gøres med dem: I Landflygtighed og Fangenskab skal de drage.
Say, 'I am your sign: like as I have done, so shall it be done to them; they shall go into exile, into captivity.'
12 Og Fyrsten i deres Midte skal tage sine Sager på Skulderen, og i Bælgmørke skal han drage ud, han skal slå Hul i Væggen for at drage ud derigennem, og han skal tilhylle sit Ansigt for ikke at se Landet.
"The prince who is among them shall bear on his shoulder in the dark, and shall go forth. He shall dig through the wall and carry it through: he shall cover his face, because he shall not see the land with his eyes.
13 Men jeg breder mit Net over ham, og han skal fanges i mit Garn; og jeg bringer ham til Bael i kaldæernes Land, som han dog ikke skal se; og der skal han dø.
My net also will I spread on him, and he shall be taken in my snare; and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; yet shall he not see it, though he shall die there.
14 Og alle hans Omgivelser, hans Hjælpere og alle hans Hærskarer vil jeg udstrø for alle Vinde og drage Sværdet bag dem.
I will scatter toward every wind all who are around him to help him, and all his bands; and I will draw out the sword after them.
15 Da skal de kende, at jeg er HERREN, når jeg spreder dem: blandt Folkene og udstrør dem i Landene.
They shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall disperse them among the nations, and scatter them through the countries.
16 Kun nogle få af dem levner jeg fra Sværd, Hunger og Pest, for at de kan fortælle om alle deres Vederstyggeligheder blandt de Folk, de kommer til; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
But I will leave a few men of them from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence; that they may declare all their abominations among the nations where they come; and they shall know that I am the LORD."
17 HERRENs Ord kom til mig således:
Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
18 Menneskesøn, spis Brød i Angst og drik Vand i Frygt og Bæven;
"Son of man, eat your bread with quaking, and drink your water with trembling and with fearfulness;
19 og sig til Landets Folk: Så siger den Herre HERREN om Jerusalems Indbyggere i Israels Land: Brød skal de spise med Bæven, og Vand skal de drikke med Rædsel, for at deres Land og alt deri må ligge øde til Straf for alle dets Indbyggeres Voldsfærd; ,
and tell the people of the land, 'Thus says the LORD concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the land of Israel: They shall eat their bread with fearfulness, and drink their water in dismay, that her land may be desolate, and all that is in it, because of the violence of all those who dwell in it.
20 og Byerne, der nu er beboet, skal ligge øde, og Landet skal blive til Ørk; og I skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
The cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be a desolation; and you shall know that I am the LORD.'"
21 HERRENs Ord kom til mig således:
The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
22 Menneskesøn! Hvad er det for et Mundheld, I har om Israels Land: "Det trækker i Langdrag, og alle Syner slår fejl!"
"Son of man, what is this proverb that you have in the land of Israel, saying, 'The days are prolonged, and every vision fails?'
23 Sig derfor til dem: Så siger den Herre HERREN: Jeg vil bringe dette Mundheld til at forstumme, så de ikke mere bruger det i Israel. Sig tværtimod til dem: "Tiden er nær, og alle Syner træffer ind!"
Tell them therefore, 'Thus says the LORD: I will make this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel'; but tell them, 'The days are at hand, and the fulfillment of every vision.
24 Thi der skal ikke mere være noget Løgnesyn eller nogen falsk Spådom i Israels Hus,
For there shall be no more any false vision nor flattering divination within the house of Israel.
25 men jeg, HERREN taler, hvad jeg vil, og det skal ske. Det skal ikke længer trække i Langdrag; men i eders Dage, du genstridige Slægt, vil jeg tale et Ord og fuldbyrde det, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
For I am the LORD; I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall be performed; it shall be no more deferred: for in your days, rebellious house, will I speak the word, and will perform it,' says the LORD."
26 HERRENs Ord kom til mig således:
Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
27 Menneskesøn! Se, Israels Hus siger: "Synet, han skuer, gælder sene Dage, og han profeterer om fjerne Tider!"
"Son of man, look, they of the house of Israel say, 'The vision that he sees is for many day to come, and he prophesies of times that are far off.'
28 Sig derfor til dem: Så siger den Herre HERREN: Intet af mine Ord skal lade vente på sig mere; hvad jeg taler, skal ske, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
Therefore tell them, 'Thus says the LORD: None of my words shall be deferred any more, but the word which I shall speak shall be performed, says the LORD.'"
