< Ezekiel 6 >

1 Og Herrens ord kom til mig således:
And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 Menneskesøn, vend dit Ansigt mod Israels Bjerge, profeter imod dem
Son of man, set thy face toward the mountains of Israel, and prophesy unto them,
3 og sig: Israels Bjerge, hør den Herre HERRENs Ord! Så siger den Herre HERREN til Bjergene og Højene, til Kløfterne og Dalene: Se, jeg sender Sværd over eder og tilintetgør eders Offerhøje.
and say, Ye mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD: Thus saith the Lord GOD to the mountains and to the hills, to the watercourses and to the valleys: Behold, I, even I, will bring a sword upon you, and I will destroy your high places.
4 Eders Altre skal ødelægges, eders Solstøtter sønderbrydes, og eders dræbte lader jeg segne foran eders Afgudsbilleder;
your altars shall become desolate, and your sun-images shall be broken: and I will cast down your slain men before your idols.
5 jeg kaster Israeliternes Lig hen for deres Afgudsbilleder og strør eders Ben rundt om eders Altre.
And I will lay the carcases of the children of Israel before their idols; and I will scatter your bones round about your altars.
6 Overalt hvor I bor, skal Byerne lægges øde og Offerhøjene gå til Grunde, for at eders Altre kan lægges øde og gå til Grunde, eders Afudsbilleder sønderbrydes og udryddes, eders Solstøtter hugges om og eders Værker tilintetgøres.
In all your dwelling places the cities shall be laid waste, and the high places shall be desolate; that your altars may be laid waste and made desolate, and your idols may be broken and cease, and your sun-images may be hewn down, and your works may be abolished.
7 Mandefald skal ske iblandt eder, og I skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
And the slain shall fall in the midst of you, and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
8 Men en Rest lader jeg blive tilbage, idet nogle af eder undslipper fra Sværdet blandt Folkene, når I spredes i Landene,
Yet will I leave a remnant, in that ye shall have some that escape the sword among the nations, when ye shall be scattered through the countries.
9 og de undslupne skal komme mig i Hu blandt Folkene, hvor de er Fanger; jeg sønderbryder deres bolerske Hjerter, som faldt fra mig, og deres bolerske Øjne, som hang ved deres Afgudsbilleder; og de skal væmmes ved sig selv over alt det onde, de har gjort, over alle deres Vederstyggeligheder.
And they that escape of you shall remember me among the nations whither they shall be carried captives, how that I have been broken with their whorish heart, which hath departed from me, and with their eyes, which go a whoring after their idols: and they shall loathe themselves in their own sight for the evils which they have committed in all their abominations.
10 Og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN; det var ikke tomme Ord, når jeg talede om at gøre den Ulykke på dem.
And they shall know that I am the LORD: I have not said in vain that I would do this evil unto them.
11 Så siger den Herre HERREN: Slå Hænderne sammen, stamp med Foden og råb Ve over alle Israels Huses grimme Vederstyggeligheder! De skal falde for Sværd, Hunger og Pest.
Thus saith the Lord GOD: Smite with thine hand, and stamp with thy foot, and say, Alas! because of all the evil abominations of the house of Israel: for they shall fall by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence.
12 Den, som er langt borte, skal dø af Pest; den, som er nær, skal falde for Sværd; og den, som levnes og reddes, skal dø af Hunger; således udtømmer jeg min Vrede over dem.
He that is far off shall die of the pestilence; and he that is near shall fall by the sword; and he that remaineth and is besieged shall die by the famine: thus will I accomplish my fury upon them.
13 De skal kende, at jeg er HERREN, når deres dræbte ligger midt iblandt deres Afgudsbilleder rundt om deres Altre på hver høj Bakke, på alle Bjergenes Tinder, under hvert grønt Træ og hver løvrig Eg, der, hvor de opsendte liflig Duft til deres Afgudsbilleder.
And ye shall know that I am the LORD, when their slain men shall be among their idols round about their altars, upon every high hill, in all the tops of the mountains, and under every green tree, and under every thick oak, the place where they did offer sweet savour to all their idols.
14 Jeg udrækker Hånden imod dem og gør Landet øde og tomt lige fra Ørkenen til Ribla, overalt hvor de bor; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
And I will stretch out my hand upon them, and make the land desolate and waste, from the wilderness toward Diblah, throughout all their habitations: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
