Ezekiel 32

1 I det tolvte År på den første dag i den tolvte måned kom HERRENs Ord til mig således:

And it came to pass in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, on the first day of the month, that the word of Jehovah came to me, saying:

2 Menneskesøn, istem en Klagesang over Farao, Ægyptens Konge, og sig til ham: Du Folkenes Løve, det er ude med dig! Du var som en Drage i Havet med prustende Næse, med Fødderne plumred du Vandet, oproded dets Strømme.

Son of man, take up a lamentation over Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and say to him: —Thou art like a young lion among the nations; Thou art like a dragon in the seas; And thou camest forth into thy rivers, And troubledst the waters with thy feet, And didst disturb their rivers.

3 Så siger den Herre HERREN: Jeg breder mit Garn over dig ved en Sværm af mange Folk, de skal drage dig op i mit Net.

Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I will therefore spread my net over thee, Amidst an assembly of many nations; And they shall draw thee up in my net.

4 Jeg kaster dig på Land og slænger dig hen på Marken, lader alle Himlens Fugle slå sig ned på dig og al Jordens Dyr blive mætte ved dig.

And I will throw thee upon the land, I will cast thee forth upon the open field, And I will cause all the birds of heaven to remain upon thee. And I will fill the beasts of the whole earth with thee;

5 Jeg lægger dit Kød på Bjergene, fylder Dalene op med dit Ådsel,

And I will lay thy flesh upon the mountains, And fill the valleys with thy heaps.

6 vander med dit Udflåd Jorden lige til Bjergene, Kløfterne skal fyldes af dit Blod.

And I will water the land in which thou swimmest with thy blood, even to the mountains, And the streams shall be full of thee.

7 Jeg skjuler Himlen, når du slukkes, klæder dens Stjerner i Sorg, jeg skjuler Solen i Skyer, og Månen skinner ej mer.

And I will cover the heavens, when I quench thee, And make the stars thereof dark; I will cover the sun with a cloud, And the moon shall not give her light.

8 Alle Himmellys klæder jeg i Sorg for dig, hyller dit Land i Mørke, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.

All the bright lights of heaven will I make dark over thee, And bring darkness upon thy land, Saith the Lord Jehovah.

9 Jeg volder mange Folkeslags Hjerter Kvide, når jeg bringer dine Fanger til Folkene, til Lande du ikke kender;

And I will grieve the hearts of many nations, When I bring thy destruction among the nations, In lands which thou knowest not.

10 jeg lader mange Folkeslag stivne af Rædsel over dig, og deres Konger skal gyse over dig, når jeg svinger mit Sværd for deres Ansigter; de skal ængstes uafbrudt, hver for sit Liv, den Dag du falder.

Yea, I will make many people amazed at thee, And their kings shall shudder on account of thee, When I brandish my sword before them; And they shall tremble every moment, every one for his life, in the day of thy fall.

11 Thi så siger den Herre HERREN: Babels Konges Sværd skal komme over dig.

For thus saith the Lord Jehovah: The sword of the king of Babylon shall come upon thee;

12 Jeg styrter din Hob ved Heltes Sværd, de grummeste af alle Folkene; de hærger Ægyptens Pragt, og al dets Hob lægges øde.

By the swords of the mighty will I cause thy multitude to fall, All of them the terrible of the nations. And they shall bring to nothing the pride of Egypt, And all her multitude shall be destroyed.

13 Jeg udrydder alt dets kvæg ved de mange Vande, Menneskefod skal ej plumre dem mer, ej Dyreklov rode dem op;

I will also destroy all her beasts From beside the great waters; Neither shall the foot of man trouble them any more, Nor shall the hoofs of beasts trouble them.

14 så lader jeg Vandene klares og Strømmene flyde som Olie - lyder det fra den Herre HERREN -

Then will I make their waters clear, And cause their rivers to run like oil, Saith the Lord Jehovah,

15 når jeg gør Ægypten til Ørk, så Landet og dets Fylde er øde, når jeg nedhugger alle, som bor der, så de kender, at jeg er HERREN.

When I shall make the land of Egypt desolate, And the country shall be destitute of all that was therein, When I shall smite all that dwell therein, That they may know that I am Jehovah.

16 Dette er en Klagesang, som du skal kvæde; Folkenes Kvinder skal kvæde den; over Ægypten og al dets larmende Hob skal de kvæde den, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.

This is the lamentation which they shall utter; the daughters of the nations shall utter it. For Egypt and for all her multitude shall they utter it, saith the Lord Jehovah.

17 I det tolvte År på den femtende Dag i..." Måned kom HERRENs Ord til mig således:

It came to pass also in the twelfth year, [[in the twelfth month, ]] on the fifteenth day of the month, that the word of Jehovah came to me, saying:

18 Menneskesøn, klag over Ægyptens larmende Hob; syng Klagesang over den, du og Folkenes Kvinder! Far ned i Underverdenen blandt dem, der steg ned i Dybet!

Son of man, wail for the multitude of Egypt, and cast her down, even her and the daughters of the famous nations, to the lower parts of the earth, to them that have gone down to the pit.

19 Er du lifligere end nogen anden? Stig ned og lig blandt de uomskårne!

Art thou more beautiful than another? Come down and be laid with the uncircumcised!

20 Midt iblandt sværdslagne skal han segne, og al hans larmende Hob skal ligge hos ham.

They shall fall in the midst of them that are slain by the sword. The sword is given; drag her away and all her multitudes!

21 Heltenes Førere skal tale til ham midt i Dødsriget: "Er du mægtigere end nogen anden? Stig ned og lig blandt de uomskårne!" (Sheol h7585)

The mightiest heroes from the midst of the pit shall speak to him and his helpers; For they are gone down, they lie uncircumcised, slain by the sword. (Sheol h7585)

22 Der er Assur og hele hans Flok rundt om hans Grav; alle er de dræbt, faldet for Sværd;

There is Assyria and all her company; Her graves are round about her; All of them are slain, fallen by the sword;

23 han fik sin Grav i en krog af Dybet, og hans Flok ligger rundt om hans Grav; alle er de dræbt, faldet for Sværd, de, som spredte Rædsel i de levendes Land.

Her grave is made in the depths of the pit, And her company is round about her grave, All of them slain, fallen by the sword, They who caused terror in the land of the living.

24 Der er Elam med al sin larmende Hob rundt om sin Grav; alle er de dræbt, faldet før Sværd, og de for uomskårne ned i Underverdenen, de, som spredte Rædsel i de levendes Land; nu bærer de deres Skændsel blandt dem, der steg ned i Dybet.

There is Elam and all her company round about her grave, All of them slain, fallen by the sword; They are gone down uncircumcised to the lower parts of the earth, Who caused terror in the land of the living; They bear their shame with them that have gone down to the pit.

25 Iblandt dræbte fik han et Leje med al sin larmende Hob rundt om sin Grav; alle er de uomskårne, sværdslagne; thi Rædsel for dem bredte sig i de levendes Land; nu bærer de deres Skændsel blandt dem, der steg ned i Dybet; de lagdes blandt dræbte.

Among the slain have they set her a bed with all her multitude; Her graves are round about her, All of them slain, uncircumcised, by the sword. Though they caused terror in the land of the living, Yet they bear their shame with them that have gone down to the pit; They are laid in the midst of the slain.

26 Der er Mesjek og, Tubal med al deres larmende Hob rundt om deres Grave; alle er de uomskårne, sværdslagne; thi de spredte Rædsel i de levendes Land;

There is Meshech, Tubal, and all their multitude; Their graves are around them; All of them slain, uncircumcised, by the sword, Though they caused terror in the land of the living.

27 de kom ikke til at ligge hos Heltene, Fortidens Kæmper, som for til Dødsriget i deres Rustninger, hvis Sværd blev lagt under deres Hoveder, og hvis Skjolde dækkede deres knogler; thi Rædsel for Heltene rådede i de levendes Land. (Sheol h7585)

Shall they not lie with the mighty of the uncircumcised that are fallen, Who have gone down to the pit with their weapons of war, Having their swords laid under their heads, And their iniquity resting upon their bones, Though they were the terror of the mighty in the land of the living? (Sheol h7585)

28 Også du skal ligge knust imellem de uomskårne, blandt de sværdslagne.

And thou also shalt be broken in the midst of the uncircumcised, And shalt lie down with them that are slain by the sword.

29 Der er Edom med sine Konger og alle sine Fyrster, som fik deres Grave hos de sværdslagne; hos de uomskårne ligger de, hos dem, der steg ned i Dybet.

There is Edom, her kings and all her princes, Who in their might are laid with them that are slain by the sword; They lie down with the uncircumcised, With them that have gone down to the pit.

30 Der er Nordens Herskere alle sammen og alle Zidoniere, som for ned til de dræbte, beskæmmede trods den Rædsel, de spredte ved deres Heltekraft; de ligger uomskårne blandt de sværdslagne, de bærer deres Skændsel blandt dem, der steg ned i Dybet.

There are the princes of the North, All of them, and all the Sidonians, Who have gone down to the slain; In the midst of the terror of their might they are put to shame; They lie down uncircumcised with them that are slain by the sword, And bear their shame with them that have gone down to the pit.

31 Dem ser Farao og trøster sig over al sin larmende Hob, lyder det fra HERREN.

Pharaoh shall see them, And shall comfort himself over all his multitude; Even Pharaoh and all his army are slain by the sword, Saith the Lord Jehovah.

32 Thi han spredte Rædsel i de levendes Land, men nu ligger han imellem uomskårne, blandt de sværdslagne, Farao med al sin larmende Hob, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.

Though I suffered him to spread terror in the land of the living, Yet is he laid in the midst of the uncircumcised, With them that are slain by the sword, Even Pharaoh and all his multitude, Saith the Lord Jehovah.
