< Jezekiel 16 >
1 Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
HERRENS Ord kom til mig saaledes:
2 Son of man, testify to Jerusalem [of] her iniquities;
Menneskesøn, forehold Jerusalem dets Vederstyggeligheder
3 and you shall say, Thus says the Lord to Jerusalem; Your root and your birth are of the land of Chanaan: your father was an Amorite, and your mother a Chettite.
og sig: Saa siger den Herre HERREN til Jerusalem: Dit Udspring og din Oprindelse var i Kana'anæernes Land; din Fader var Amorit, din Moder Hetiterinde.
4 And [as for] your birth in the day wherein you were born, you did not bind your breasts, and you were not washed in water, neither was you salted with salt, neither was you swathed in swaddling-bands.
Og ved din Fødsel gik det saaledes til: Da du fødtes, blev din Navlestreng ikke skaaret over, ej heller blev du tvættet ren med Vand eller gnedet med Salt eller lagt i Svøb.
5 Nor did mine eye pity you, to do for you one of all these things, to feel at all for you; but you were cast out on the face of the field, because of the deformity of your person, in the day wherein you were born.
Ingen saa paa dig med saa megen Medynk, at han af Medlidenhed gjorde nogen af disse Ting for dig, men du henslængtes paa Marken, den Dag du fødtes; saaledes væmmedes man ved din Sjæl.
6 And I passed by to you, and saw you polluted in your blood; and I said to you, [Let there be] life out of your blood:
Men jeg kom forbi, og da jeg saa dig sprælle i Blod, sagde jeg til dig, som du laa der i Blodet: »Du skal leve
7 increase; I have made you as the springing grass of the field. So you did increase and grow, and did enter into great cities: your breasts were set, and your hair grew, whereas you were naked and bare.
og vokse som en Urt paa Marken!« Og du voksede, blev stor og traadte ind i din Skønheds Fylde; dine Bryster blev faste, og dit Haar voksede; men du var nøgen og bar.
8 And I passed by you and saw you, and, behold, [it was] your time and a time of resting; and I spread my wings over you, and covered your shame, and swear to you: and I entered into covenant with you, says the Lord, and you became mine.
Saa kom jeg forbi og saa dig, og se, din Tid var inde, din Elskovstid; og jeg bredte min Kappeflig over dig og tilhyllede din Blusel; saa tilsvor jeg dig Troskab og indgik Pagt med dig, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN, og du blev min.
9 And I washed you in water, and washed your blood from you, and anointed you with oil.
Saa tvættede jeg dig med Vand, skyllede Blodet af dig og salvede dig med Olie;
10 And I clothed you with embroidered [garments], and clothed you beneath with purple, and girded you with fine linen, and clothed you with silk,
jeg klædte dig i broget vævede Klæder, gav dig Sko af Tahasjskind paa, bandt Byssusklæde om dit Hoved og hyllede dig i Silke;
11 and decked you also with ornaments, and put bracelets on your hands, and a necklace on your neck.
jeg smykkede dig, lagde Spange om dine Arme og Kæde om din Hals,
12 And I put a pendant on your nostril, and rings in your ears, and a crown of glory on your head.
fæstede en Ring i din Næse, kugler i dine Ører og en herlig Krone paa dit Hoved;
13 So you were adorned with gold and silver; and your raiment was of fine linen, and silk, and variegated work: you did eat fine flour, and oil, and honey, and did become extremely beautiful.
du smykkedes med Guld og Sølv, din Klædning var Byssus, Silke og broget vævede Klæder; fint Hvedemel, Honning og Olie var din Mad, og du blev saare dejlig og drev det til at blive Dronning.
14 And your name went forth amongst the nations for your beauty: because it was perfected with elegance, [and] in the comeliness which I put upon you, says the Lord.
Dit Ry kom ud blandt Folkene for din Dejligheds Skyld; thi den var fuldendt ved de Smykker, jeg udstyrede dig med, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
15 You did trust in your beauty, and did go a-whoring because of your renown, and did pour out your fornication on every passer by.
Men du stolede paa din Dejlighed og bolede i Kraft af dit Ry; du udøste din bolerske Attraa over enhver, som kom forbi; du blev hans.
16 And you did take of your garments, and made to yourself idols of needlework, and did go a-whoring after them; therefore you shall never come in, nor shall [the like] take place.
Af dine Klæder tog du og gjorde dig spraglede Offerhøje og bolede paa dem ... .
17 And you took your fair ornaments of my gold and of my silver, of what I gave you, and you made to yourself male images, and you did commit whoredom with them.
Du tog dine Smykker af mit Guld og Sølv, som jeg havde givet dig, og gjorde dig Mandsbilleder og bolede med dem.
18 And you did take your variegated apparel and did clothe them, and you did set before them mine oil and mine incense.
Du tog dine broget vævede Klæder og hyllede dem deri, og min Olie og Røgelse satte du for dem.
19 And [you took] my bread which I gave you, ([yes] I fed you with fine flour and oil and honey) and did set them before them for a sweet smelling savour: yes, it was so, says the Lord.
Brødet, som jeg havde givet dig — fint Hvedemel, Olie og Honning gav jeg dig at spise — satte du for dem til en liflig Duft, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
20 And you took your sons and your daughters, whom you bore, and did sacrifice [these] to them to be destroyed. You did go a-whoring as [if that were] little,
Og du tog dine Sønner og Døtre, som du havde født mig, og slagtede dem til Føde for dem. Var det ikke nok med din Bolen,
21 and did kill your children, and gave them up in offering them to them for an expiation.
siden du slagtede mine Sønner og gav dem hen, idet du indviede dem til dem?
22 This is beyond all your fornication, and you did not remember your infancy, when you were naked and bare, [and] did live [though] defiled in your blood.
Og under alle dine Vederstyggeligheder og din Bolen kom du ikke din Ungdoms Dage i Hu, da du var nøgen og bar og laa og sprællede i Blod.
23 And it came to pass after all your wickedness, says the Lord,
Og efter al denne din Ondskab — ve dig, ve! lyder det fra den Herre HERREN —
24 that you did build yourself a house of fornication, and did make yourself a public place in every street;
byggede du dig en Alterfod og gjorde dig en Offerhøj paa alle Torve.
25 and on the head of every way you did set up your fornications, and did defile your beauty, and did open your feet to every passer by, and did multiply your fornication.
Ved hvert Gadehjørne byggede du dig en Offerhøj og vanærede din Dejlighed; du spredte Benene for enhver, som kom forbi, og drev din Bolen vidt.
26 And you did go a-whoring after the children of Egypt your neighbours, great of flesh; and did go a-whoring, often to provoke me to anger.
Du bolede med Ægypterne, dine sværlemmede Naboer, og drev din Bolen vidt og krænkede mig.
27 And if I stretch out my hand against you, then will I abolish your statutes, and deliver [you] up to the wills of them that hate you, [even to] the daughters of the Philistines that turned you aside from the way wherein you sinned.
Men se, jeg udrakte min Haand imod dig og unddrog dig, hvad der tilkom dig, og jeg gav dig dine Fjender Filisterindernes Gridskhed i Vold, de, som skammede sig over din utugtige Færd.
28 And you did go a-whoring to the daughters of Assur, and not even thus was you satisfied; yes, you did go a-whoring, and was not satisfied.
Siden bolede du med Assyrerne, umættelig som du var; du bolede med dem, men blev endda ikke mæt.
29 And you did multiply your covenants with the land of the Chaldeans; and not even with these was you satisfied.
Saa udstrakte du din Bolen til Kræmmerlandet, Kaldæernes Land, men blev endda ikke mæt.
30 Why should I make a covenant with your daughter, says the Lord, while you do all these things, the works of a harlot? and you have gone a-whoring in a threefold degree with your daughters.
Hvor vansmægtede dog dit Hjerte, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN, da du gjorde alt dette, som kun en arg Skøge kan gøre,
31 You have built a house of harlotry in every top of a way, and have set up your high place in every street; and you did become as a harlot gathering hires.
da du byggede dig en Alterfod ved hvert Gadehjørne og gjorde dig en Offerhøj paa hvert Torv. Men du lignede ikke Skøgen i at samle Skøgeløn;
32 An adulteress resembles you, taking rewards of her husband.
hvilken Horkvinde, der tager fremmede i sin Mands Sted! —
33 She has even given rewards to all that went a-whoring after her, and you have given rewards to all your lovers, yes, you did load them with rewards, that they should come to you from every side for your fornication.
ellers giver man Skøgen en Gave, men du gav alle dine Elskere Gaver og købte dem til at komme til dig rundt om fra og bole med dig.
34 And there has happened in you perverseness in your fornication beyond [other] women, and they have committed fornication with you, in that you give hires over and above, and hires were not given to you; and [thus] perverseness happened in you.
Hos dig var det modsat af, hvad Tilfældet ellers er med Kvinder; ingen løb efter dig for at bole, men du gav Skøgeløn og fik selv ingen; det var det modsatte.
35 Therefore, harlot, hear the word of the Lord:
Derfor, du Skøge, hør HERRENS Ord!
36 Thus says the Lord, Because you have poured forth your money, therefore your shame shall be discovered in your harlotry with your lovers, and [with] regard to all the imaginations of your iniquities, and for the blood of your children which you have given to them.
Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Fordi din Skam ødtes bort og din Blusel blottedes for dine Elskere ved din Boler, derfor og for alle dine vederstyggelige Afgudsbilleders Skyld og for dine Sønners Blods Skyld, som du gav dem,
37 Therefore, behold, I [will] gather all your lovers with whom you have consorted, and all whom you have loved, with all whom you did hate; and I will gather them against you round about, and will expose your wickedness to them, and they shall see all your shame.
se, derfor vil jeg samle alle dine Elskere, hvem du var til Glæde, baade alle dem, du elskede, og alle dem, du hadede; jeg vil samle dem imod dig trindt om fra og blotte din Blusel for dem, saa de ser den helt.
38 And I will be avenged on you with the vengeance of an adulteress, and I will bring upon you blood of fury and jealousy.
Jeg vil dømme dig efter Horkvinders og Morderskers Ret og lade Vrede og Nidkærhed ramme dig.
39 And I will deliver you into their hands, and they shall break down your house of harlotry, and destroy your high place; and they shall strip you of your garments, and shall take your proud ornaments, and leave you naked and bare.
Jeg giver dig i deres Haand, og de skal nedbryde din Alterfod, ødelægge dine Offerhøje, rive Klæderne af dig, tage dine Smykker og lade dig staa nøgen og bar.
40 And they shall bring multitudes upon you, and they shall stone you with stones, and pierce you with their swords.
De skal sammenkalde en Forsamling imod dig, stene dig og med deres Sværd hugge dig sønder og sammen;
41 And they shall burn your houses with fire, and shall execute vengeance on you in the sight of many women: and I will turn you back from harlotry, and I will no more give [you] rewards.
de skal sætte Ild paa dine Huse og fuldbyrde Dommen over dig i mange Kvinders Paasyn. Jeg gør Ende paa din Bolen, og du skal ikke mere komme til at give Skøgeløn.
42 So will I slacken my fury against you, and my jealousy shall be removed from you, and I will rest, and be no more careful [for you].
Jeg stiller min Vrede paa dig, til min Nidkærhed viger fra dig, saa jeg faar Ro og ikke mere er krænket.
43 Because you did not remember your infancy, and you did grieve me in all these things; therefore, behold, I have recompensed your ways upon your head, says the Lord: for thus have you wrought ungodliness above all your [other] iniquities.
Fordi du ikke kom dine Ungdoms Dage i Hu, men vakte min Vrede ved alt dette, se, derfor vil jeg gøre Gengæld og lade din Færd komme over dit Hoved, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN. Du skal ikke vedblive at føje Skændsel til alle dine Vederstyggeligheder.
44 These are all the things they have spoken against you in a proverb, saying,
Se, enhver, som ynder Ordsprog, skal bruge det Ordsprog om dig: »Som Moder saa Datter!«
45 As is the mother, so is your mother's daughter: you are she that has rejected her husband and her children; and the sisters of your sisters have rejected their husbands and their children: your mother was a Chettite, and [your] father an Amorite.
Du er din Moders Datter, hun lededes ved sin Mand og sine Børn; og du er dine Søstres Søster, de lededes ved deres Mænd og Børn. Eders Moder var Hetiterinde, eders Fader Amorit.
46 Your elder sister who dwells on your left hand is Samaria, she and her daughters: and your younger sister, that dwells on the right hand, is Sodom and her daughters.
Din store Søster var Samaria og hendes Døtre norden for dig, og din lille Søster sønden for dig var Sodoma og hendes Døtre.
47 Yet notwithstanding you have not walked in their ways, neither have you done according to their iniquities within a little, but you have exceeded them in all your ways.
Paa deres Veje vandrede du ikke, og Vederstyggeligheder som deres øvede du ikke; kun en liden Stund, saa handlede du endnu værre end de paa alle dine Veje.
48 [As] I live, says the Lord, this Sodom and her daughters have not done as you and your daughters have done.
Saa sandt jeg lever, lyder det fra den Herre HERRE, din Søster Sodoma og hendes Døtre handlede ikke som du og dine Døtre!
49 Moreover this was the sin of your sister Sodom, pride: she and her daughters lived in pleasure, in fullness of bread [and] in abundance: this belonged to her and her daughters, and they helped not the hand of the poor and needy.
Se, din Søster Sodomas Brøde var Overmod; Brød i Overflod og sorgløs Tryghed blev hende og hendes Døtre til Del, men de rakte ikke den arme og fattige en hjælpende Haand;
50 And they boasted, and wrought iniquities before me: so I cut them off as I saw [fit].
de blev hovmodige og øvede Vederstyggelighed for mine Øjne; derfor stødte jeg dem bort, saa snart jeg saa det.
51 Also Samaria has not sinned according to half of your sins; but you have multiplied your iniquities beyond them, and you have justified your sisters in all your iniquities which you have committed.
Heller ikke Samaria syndede halvt saa meget som du! Du har øvet flere Vederstyggeligheder end de og retfærdiggjort dine Søstre ved alle de Vederstyggeligheder, du øvede.
52 You therefore bear your punishment, for that you have corrupted your sisters by your sins which you have committed beyond them; and you have made them [appear] more righteous than yourself: you therefore be ashamed, and bear your dishonour, in that you have justified your sisters.
Saa bær da ogsaa du din Skændsel, du, som har skaffet dine Søstre Oprejsning; da dine Synder er vederstyggeligere end deres, staar de retfærdigere end du; saa skam da ogsaa du dig og bær din Skændsel, fordi du har retfærdiggjort dine Søstre.
53 And I will turn their captivity, [even] the captivity of Sodom and her daughters; and I will turn the captivity of Samaria and her daughters; and I will turn your captivity in the midst of them:
Og jeg vil vende deres Skæbne, Sodomas og hendes Døtres og Samarias og hendes Døtres, og jeg vil vende din Skæbne midt iblandt dem,
54 that you may bear your punishment, and be dishonoured for all that you have done in provoking me to anger.
for at du kan bære din Skændsel og blues ved alt, hvad du har gjort, idet du derved skaffede dem en Trøst.
55 And your sister Sodom and her daughters shall be restored as they were at the beginning, and you and your daughters shall be restored as you were at the beginning.
Dine Søstre Sodoma og hendes Døtre og Samaria og hendes Døtre skal blive, hvad de fordum var, og du og dine Døtre, hvad I fordum var.
56 And surely your sister Sodom was not mentioned by your mouth in the days of your pride:
Din Søster Sodomas Navn tog du ikke i din Mund i dit Overmods Dage,
57 before your wickedness was discovered, even now you are the reproach of the daughters of Syria, and of all that are round about her, [even] of the daughters of the Philistines that compass you round about.
da din Blusel endnu ikke var blottet som nu, du Spot for Edoms Kvinder, og alle Kvinder deromkring og for Filisternes Kvinder, som haanede dig fra alle Sider!
58 [As for] your ungodliness and your iniquities, you have borne them, says the Lord.
Du maa bære din Skændsel og dine Vederstyggeligheder, lyder det fra HERREN.
59 Thus says the Lord; I will even do to you as you have done, as you have dealt shamefully in these things to transgress my covenant.
Ja, saa siger den Herre HERREN: Jeg gør med dig, som du har gjort, du, som lod haant om Eden og brød Pagten.
60 And I will remember my covenant [made] with you in the days of your infancy, and I will establish to you an everlasting covenant.
Men jeg vil ihukomme min Pagt med dig i din Ungdoms Dage og oprette en evig Pagt med dig.
61 Then you shall remember your way, and shall be utterly dishonoured when you receive your elder sisters with your younger ones: and I will give them to you for building up, but not by your covenant.
Og du skal komme dine Veje i Hu og blues, naar jeg tager dine Søstre, baade dem, der er større, og dem, der er mindre end du, og giver dig dem til Døtre, men ikke fordi du var tro i Pagten.
62 And I will establish my covenant with you; and you shall know that I am the Lord:
Jeg opretter min Pagt med dig, og du skal kende, at jeg er HERREN,
63 that you may remember, and be ashamed, and may no more be able to open your mouth for your shame, when I am reconciled to you for all that you have done, says the Lord.
for at du skal komme det i Hu med Skam og ikke mere kunne aabne din Mund, fordi du blues, naar jeg tilgiver dig alt, hvad du har gjort, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
