Ezekiel 35
1 HERRENs Ord kom til mig således:
Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 Menneskesøn, vend dit Ansigt mod Seirs Bjergland og profeter imod det
Son of man, set thy 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,
And say to it, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O mount Seir, I am against thee, and I will stretch out my hand against thee, and I will make thee most desolate.
4 dine Byer lægger jeg i Grus. Du selv skal blive til Ørk og kende, at jeg er HERREN.
I will lay thy cities waste, and thou 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 a perpetual hatred, and hast shed the blood of the children of Israel by the force of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time that their iniquity had an 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 GOD, I will prepare thee to blood, and blood shall pursue thee: since thou hast not hated blood, even blood shall pursue thee.
7 Jeg gør Seirs Bjergland til Ørk og Ødemark og udrydder deraf enhver, som kommer og går;
Thus will I make mount Seir most desolate, and cut off from it him that passeth out and him that returneth.
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 men: in thy hills, and in thy valleys, and in all thy rivers, shall they fall that are slain with the sword.
9 Jeg gør dig til Ørk for evigt, dine Byer skal ikke bebos; og du skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
I will make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not return: 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 be mine, and we will possess it; though 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 hast used out of thy hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I have judged 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, and that I have heard all thy blasphemies which thou hast spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they are given us to consume.
13 Du gjorde dig stor imod mig med din Mund og overfusede mig med Ord; jeg hørte det.
Thus with your mouth ye have boasted against me, and have multiplied your words against me: I have 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 saith the Lord GOD; 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 at the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolate, so will I do to thee: thou shalt be desolate, O mount Seir, and all Edom, even all of it: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
