Ezekiel 35
1 HERRENs Ord kom til mig således:
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
2 Menneskesøn, vend dit Ansigt mod Seirs Bjergland og profeter imod det
Son of man, set thy face against the mountain of Se'ir, and prophecy against it,
3 og sig til det: Så siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg kommer over dig, Seirs Bjergland, og løfter min Hånd imod dig; jeg gør dig til Ørk og Ødemark,
And say unto it, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will be against thee, O mountain of Se'ir, and I will stretch out my hand over thee, and I will render thee desolate and wasted.
4 dine Byer lægger jeg i Grus. Du selv skal blive til Ørk og kende, at jeg er HERREN.
Thy cities will I lay in ruins, and thou thyself shalt be desolate, and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.
5 Fordi du nærede evigt Had og i Nødens Stund overgav Israeliterne til Sværdet, da deres Misgerning var fuldmoden,
Because thou hast had an undying hatred, and didst surrender the children of Israel to the power of the sword, at the time of their calamity, at the time of the iniquity of the end:
6 derfor, så sandt jeg lever, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN: Jeg gør dig til Blod, og Blod skal forfølge dig; sandelig, du forbrød dig ved Blod, og Blod skal forfølge dig.
Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord Eternal, I will surely let thy blood flow, and blood shall pursue thee; since thou didst not hate blood-shedding, so shall blood pursue thee.
7 Jeg gør Seirs Bjergland til Ørk og Ødemark og udrydder deraf enhver, som kommer og går;
Thus will I change the mountain of Se'ir into a desolate land and a waste, and I will cut off from it him that travelleth forward and backward.
8 jeg fylder dets Bjerge med dræbte; på dine Høje og i dine Dale og Kløfter skal de sværdslagne falde.
And I will fill his mountains with his slain: as regardeth thy hills, and thy valleys, and all thy ravines, in them shall fall those that are slain by the sword.
9 Jeg gør dig til Ørk for evigt, dine Byer skal ikke bebos; og du skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
Into perpetual desolations will I change thee, and thy cities shall not be restored: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
10 Fordi du sagde: "De tvende Folk og de tvende Lande skal tilhøre mig, jeg vil tage dem i Eje!" skønt HERREN var der,
Because thou hast said, These two nations and these two countries shall indeed be mine, and we will take possession thereof; whereas the Lord was there:
11 derfor, så sandt jeg lever, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN: Jeg vil gøre med dig efter den Vrede og det Nid, du hadefuldt udviste imod dem, og jeg vil give mig til Hende for dig, når jeg dømmer dig;
Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord God, I will even do according to thy anger, and according to thy envy which thou didst use out of thy hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I judge thee.
12 og du skal kende, at jeg er HERREN. Jeg har hørt al den Spot, du udslyngede mod Israels Bjerge: "De er ødelagt, os er de givet til Føde!"
And thou shalt know that I am the Lord: I have heard all thy blasphemies which thou hast spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they are given unto us to consume them.
13 Du gjorde dig stor imod mig med din Mund og overfusede mig med Ord; jeg hørte det.
And ye boasted greatly against me with your mouth, and have multiplied against me your words: I have indeed heard them.
14 Så siger den Herre HERREN: Som det var din Glæde, at mit Land blev Ørk, således vil jeg gøre med dig;
Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, When the whole earth rejoiceth, I will make thee desolate.
15 som det var din Glæde, at Israels Huss Arvelod blev Ørk, således vil jeg gøre med dig. Ørk skal du blive, Seirs Bjergland og hele Edom med; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
As thou didst rejoice over the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was made desolate: so will I do unto thee; desolate shalt thou be, O mountain of Se'ir, and all Idumea—altogether; and they shall know that I am the Lord.
