Ezekiel 28
1 The word of Jehovah came again to me, saying,
Og Herrens Ord kom til mig saalunde:
2 Son of man, say to the ruler of Tyre, Thus says the lord Jehovah: Because thy heart is lifted up, and thou have said, I am a god. I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas. Yet thou are man, and not God, though thou did set thy heart as the heart of God.
Du Menneskesøn! sig til Tyrus's Fyrste: Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Fordi dit Hjerte ophøjede sig, og du sagde: Jeg er en Gud, jeg sidder paa Guds Sæde midt i Havet, medens du er et Menneske og ikke Gud og dog agtede dit Hjerte som Guds Hjerte;
3 Behold, thou are wiser than Daniel. There is no secret that is hidden from thee.
— se, du er visere end Daniel; intet lønligt er skjult for dig;
4 By thy wisdom and by thine understanding thou have gotten thee riches, and have gotten gold and silver into thy treasures.
du har forhvervet dig Formue ved din Visdom og ved din Forstand og bragt Guld og Sølv i dine Skatkamre;
5 By thy great wisdom and by thy traffic thou have increased thy riches. And thy heart is lifted up because of thy riches.
du har formeret din Formue ved din megen Visdom i dit Købmandsskab, og dit Hjerte har ophøjet sig for din Formues Skyld: —
6 Therefore thus says the lord Jehovah: Because thou have set thy heart as the heart of God,
Derfor, saa siger den Herre, Herre: Efterdi du agtede dit Hjerte som Guds Hjerte,
7 therefore, behold, I will bring strangers upon thee, the terrible of the nations, and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness.
se, derfor vil jeg lade fremmede, de forfærdelige iblandt Folkene, komme over dig, og de skulle uddrage deres Sværd imod din Visdoms skønne Værk og vanhellige din Herlighed.
8 They shall bring thee down to the pit, and thou shall die the death of those who are slain, in the heart of the seas.
De skulle kaste dig ned i Hulen, og du skal dø, som de gennemstungne dø midt i Havet.
9 Will thou yet say before him who slays thee, I am God? But thou are man, and not God, in the hand of him who wounds thee.
Mon du vel kan sige over for den, som ihjelslaar dig: Jeg er en Gud? medens du dog er et Menneske og ikke en Gud i hans Haand, som ihjelslaar dig.
10 Thou shall die the death of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers. For I have spoken it, says the lord Jehovah.
Du skal dø, som de uomskaarne dø, ved fremmedes Haand; thi jeg har talt det, siger den Herre, Herre.
11 Moreover the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
Og Herrens Ord kom til mig saaledes:
12 Son of man, take up a lamentation over the king of Tyre, and say to him, Thus says the lord Jehovah: Thou seal up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.
Du Menneskesøn! opløft et Klagemaal over Kongen af Tyrus, og sig til ham: Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Du, som paatrykker den afpassede Ordning Seglet, du, som er fuld af Visdom og fuldkommen i Skønhed,
13 Thou were in Eden, the garden of God. Every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, the topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold. The workmanship of thy tambourine and of thy pipes was in thee. In the day that thou were created they were prepared.
du var i Eden, i Guds Have, alle Haande kostbare Stene bedækkede dig: Karneol, Topas og Demant, Krysolith, Onyks og Jaspis, Safir, Karbunkel og Smaragd og Guld; dine Trommer og dine Piber vare til Tjeneste hos dig, de vare beredte paa den Dag, du blev skabt.
14 Thou were the anointed cherub who covers. And I set thee, so that thou were upon the holy mountain of God. Thou have walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
Du var en salvet Kerub, som skærmede; og jeg havde sat dig dertil, du var paa Guds hellige Bjerg, du vandrede midt imellem gloende Stene.
15 Thou were perfect in thy ways from the day that thou were created, till unrighteousness was found in thee.
Du var fuldkommen i dine Veje fra den Dag af, du blev skabt, indtil Uretfærdighed blev funden i dig.
16 By the abundance of thy commerce they filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou have sinned. Therefore I have cast thee out of the mountain of God as profane, and I have destroyed thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
Formedelst din store Handel fyldtes dit Indre af Uret, og du syndede; derfor fjernede jeg dig som vanhelliget fra Guds Bjerg og lod dig omkomme, du skærmende Kerub, at du ikke forblev imellem de gloende Stene.
17 Thy heart was lifted up because of thy beauty. Thou have corrupted thy wisdom because of thy brightness. I have cast thee to the ground. I have laid thee before kings, that they may behold thee.
Dit Hjerte ophøjede sig for din Skønheds Skyld, du ødelagde din Visdom tillige med din Herlighed! jeg henkastede dig paa Jorden, gav dig hen for Kongers Ansigt, at de skulle se paa dig.
18 By the multitude of thine iniquities, in the unrighteousness of thy commerce, thou have profaned thy sanctuaries. Therefore I have brought forth a fire from the midst of thee. It has devoured thee, and I have turned thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all those who behold thee.
Ved dine Misgerningers Mangfoldighed under din uretfærdige Handel vanhelligede du dine Helligdomme, og jeg lod en Ild gaa ud fra din Midte, den fortærede dig, og jeg gjorde dig til Aske paa Jorden for alles Øjne, som se dig.
19 All those who know thee among the peoples shall be astonished at thee. Thou have become a horror, and thou shall nevermore have any being.
Alle som dig kendte iblandt Folkene, forfærdes over dig; du er bleven til Gru og skal i Evighed ikke være mere.
20 And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
Og Herrens Ord kom til mig saaledes:
21 Son of man, set thy face toward Sidon, and prophesy against it,
Du Menneskesøn! vend dit Ansigt imod Zidon, og spaa imod den,
22 and say, Thus says the lord Jehovah: Behold, I am against thee, O Sidon. And I will be glorified in the midst of thee. And they shall know that I am Jehovah, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her.
og sig: Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Se, jeg kommer imod dig, Zidon! og jeg vil herliggøre mig i din Midte; og de skulle fornemme, at jeg er Herren, naar jeg holder Ret over den og helliggør mig ved den.
23 For I will send pestilence into her, and blood into her streets. And the wounded shall fall in the midst of her, with the sword upon her on every side. And they shall know that I am Jehovah.
Og jeg vil sende Pest i den og Blod paa dens Gader, og der skal falde ihjelslagne i dens Midte for Sværdet, som skal komme over den trindt omkring fra; og de skulle fornemme, at jeg er Herren.
24 And there shall no more be a pricking brier to the house of Israel, nor a hurting thorn of any who are round about them, who did spite to them. And they shall know that I am the lord Jehovah.
Og for Israels Hus skal der ikke ydermere være en Torn, som stikker, eller en Tidsel, som smerter, af alle dem, som ere trindt omkring dem, som haane dem, og de skulle fornemme, at jeg er den Herre, Herre.
25 Thus says the lord Jehovah: When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the nations, then they shall dwell in their own land which I gave to my servant Jacob.
Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Naar jeg samler Israels Hus hjem fra Folkene, iblandt hvilke de ere adspredte, da vil jeg helliggøre mig ved dem for Hedningernes Øjne, og de skulle bo i deres Land, som jeg har givet min Tjener Jakob.
26 And they shall dwell securely therein. Yea, they shall build houses, and plant vineyards, and shall dwell securely, when I have executed judgments upon all those who do them spite round about them. And they shall know that I am Jehovah their God.
Og de skulle bo tryggelig derudi og bygge Huse og plante Vingaarde, ja, bo tryggelig; naar jeg holder Ret over alle dem, som haanede dem trindt omkring dem; og de skulle fornemme, at jeg Herren er deres Gud.
