Ezekiel 35
1 HERRENs Ord kom til mig således:
Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
2 Menneskesøn, vend dit Ansigt mod Seirs Bjergland og profeter imod det
“Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir and prophesy 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,
Say to it, 'The Lord Yahweh says this: Behold! I am against you, Mount Seir, and I will strike you with my hand and make you a desolation and a waste.
4 dine Byer lægger jeg i Grus. Du selv skal blive til Ørk og kende, at jeg er HERREN.
I will make your cities ruins, and you yourself will become desolate; then you will know that I am Yahweh.
5 Fordi du nærede evigt Had og i Nødens Stund overgav Israeliterne til Sværdet, da deres Misgerning var fuldmoden,
Because you have always been hostile to the people of Israel, and because you poured them out into the hands of the sword at the time of their distress, at the time their punishment was at its greatest.
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—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—I will prepare you for bloodshed, and bloodshed will pursue you! Since you did not hate bloodshed, bloodshed will pursue you.
7 Jeg gør Seirs Bjergland til Ørk og Ødemark og udrydder deraf enhver, som kommer og går;
I will make Mount Seir a complete desolation when I cut off from it anyone who passes through and returns again.
8 jeg fylder dets Bjerge med dræbte; på dine Høje og i dine Dale og Kløfter skal de sværdslagne falde.
I will fill its mountains with those who were killed; on your high hills and valleys and in all your streams those who were killed by the sword will fall.
9 Jeg gør dig til Ørk for evigt, dine Byer skal ikke bebos; og du skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
I will make you a perpetual desolation. Your cities will not be inhabited, but you will know that I am Yahweh.
10 Fordi du sagde: "De tvende Folk og de tvende Lande skal tilhøre mig, jeg vil tage dem i Eje!" skønt HERREN var der,
You have said, “These two nations and these two lands will become mine, and we will possess them,” even when Yahweh was present with them.
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—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—so I will do according to your anger and according to your jealousy that you had in your hatred of Israel, and I will show myself to them when I judge you.
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!"
So you will know that I am Yahweh. I have heard all the insults you spoke against the mountains of Israel, when you said, “They have been destroyed; they have been given over to us to devour.”
13 Du gjorde dig stor imod mig med din Mund og overfusede mig med Ord; jeg hørte det.
You exalted yourselves against me with what you said, and you multiplied the words you said against me; and I heard it all.
14 Så siger den Herre HERREN: Som det var din Glæde, at mit Land blev Ørk, således vil jeg gøre med dig;
The Lord Yahweh says this: I will make you a desolation, while the entire earth rejoices.
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 you rejoiced over the inheritance of the people of Israel because of its desolation, I will do the same to you. You will become a desolation, Mount Seir, and all of Edom—all of it! Then they will know that I am Yahweh.'”
