Jezekiel 4
1 And you, son of man, take you a brick, and you shall set it before your face, and shall portray on it the city, [even] Jerusalem.
Du Menneskesøn tag dig en Teglsten, læg den for dig og indrids i den et Billede af en By, Jerusalem;
2 And you shall besiege it, and build works against it, and throw up a mound round about it, and pitch camps against it, and set up engines round about.
og kast en Vold op omkring den, byg Belejringstaarne, opkast Stormvold, lad Hære lejre sig imod den og rejs Stormbukke mod den fra alle Sider;
3 And take you to yourself an iron pan, and you shall set it [for] an iron wall between you and the city: and you shall set your face against it, and it shall be in a siege, and you shall besiege it. This is a sign to the children of Israel.
tag dig saa en Jernpande og sæt den som en Jernvæg op mellem dig og Byen og ret dit Ansigt imod den. Saaledes skal den være omringet, og du skal trænge den. Det skal være Israels Hus et Tegn.
4 And you shall lie upon your left side, and lay the iniquities of the house of Israel upon it, according to the number of the hundred and fifty days [during] which you shall lie upon it: and you shall bear their iniquities.
Og læg du dig paa din venstre Side og tag, Israels Hus's Misgerning paa dig; alle de Dage du ligger saaledes, skal du bære deres Misgerning.
5 For I have appointed you their iniquities for a number of days, for a hundred and ninety days: so you shall bear the iniquities of the house of Israel.
Deres Misgernings Aar gør jeg til lige saa mange Dage for dig, 190 Dage; saa længe skal du bære Israels Hus's Misgerning.
6 And you shall accomplish this, and [then] shall lie on your right side, and shall bear the iniquities of the house of Juda forty days: I have appointed you a day for a year.
Og naar de er til Ende, læg dig saa paa din højre Side og bær Judas Hus's Misgerning 40 Dage; for hvert Aar giver jeg dig en Dag.
7 So you shall set your face to the siege of Jerusalem, and shall strengthen your arm, and shall prophesy against it.
Og du skal rette dit Ansigt og din blottede Arm mod det omringede Jerusalem og profetere imod det.
8 And, behold, I have prepared bonds for you, land you may not turn from your one side to the other, until the days of your siege shall be accomplished.
Og se, jeg lægger Baand paa dig, saa du ikke kan vende dig fra den ene Side til den anden, før din Belejrings Dage er til Ende.
9 Take you also to you wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and bread-corn; and you shall cast them into one earthen vessel, and shall make them into loaves for yourself; and you shall eat them a hundred and ninety days, according to the number of the days [during] which you sleep on your side.
Og tag du dig Hvede, Byg, Bønner, Linser, Hirse og Spelt, kom det i et og samme Kar og lav dig Brød deraf; alle de Dage du ligger paa Siden, 190 Dage, skal det være din Mad;
10 And you shall eat your food by weight, twenty shekels a day: from time to time shall you eat them.
og Maden, du faar, skal være efter Vægt, tyve Sekel daglig; du skal spise den een Gang daglig.
11 And you shall drink water by measure, even from time to time you shall drink the sixth part of a hin.
Og Vand skal du drikke efter Maal, en Sjettedel Hin; du skal drikke een Gang daglig.
12 And you shall eat them [as] a barley cake: you shall bake them before their eyes in man's dung.
Og som Bygkager skal du spise det og bage det ved Menneskeskarn i deres Paasyn.
13 And you shall say, Thus says the Lord God of Israel; Thus shall the children of Israel eat unclean things amongst the Gentiles.
Og du skal sige: »Saa sige HERREN: Saaledes skal Israeliterne have urent Brød til Føde blandt de Folk, jeg bortstøder dem til!«
14 Then I said, Not so, Lord God of Israel: surely my soul has not been defiled with uncleanness; nor have I eaten, that which died of itself or was torn of beasts from my birth until now; neither has any corrupt flesh entered into my mouth.
Men jeg sagde: »Ak, Herre, HERRE, jeg har endnu aldrig været uren; noget selvdødt eller sønderrevet har jeg fra Barnsben aldrig spist, og urent Kød kom aldrig i min Mund!«
15 And he said to me, Behold, I have given you dung of oxen instead of man's dung, and you shall prepare your loaves upon it.
Da svarede han: »Vel, jeg tillader dig at tage Oksegødning i Stedet for Menneskeskarn og bage dit Brød derved.«
16 And he said to me, Son of man, behold, I break the support of bread in Jerusalem: and they shall eat bread by weight and in lack; and shall drink water by measure, and in a state of ruin:
Videre sagde han til mig: Menneskesøn! Se, jeg bryder Brødets Støttestav i Jerusalem; Brød skal de spise efter Vægt og i Angst, og Vand skal de drikke efter Maal og i Rædsel,
17 that they may lack bread and water; and a man and his brother shall be brought to ruin, and they shall pine away in their iniquities.
for at de maa mangle Brød og Vand og alle som een være slagne af Rædsel og hensmægte i deres Misgerning.
