Ezekiel 25

1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

HERRENs Ord kom til mig således:

2 “Son of man, set your face against the sons of Ammon, and you shall prophesy about them.

Mennesskesøn, vend dit Ansigt imod Ammoniterne, profeter imod dem

3 And you shall say to the sons of Ammon: Listen to the word of the Lord God: Thus says the Lord God: Because you have said, ‘Well, well!’ over my sanctuary, when it was profaned, and over the land of Israel, when it was desolated, and over the house of Judah, when they were led into captivity,

og sig til dem: Hør den Herre HERRENs Ord: Så siger den Herre HERREN: Fordi du råbte "Ha, ha!" over min Helligdom, da den vanhelligedes, og over Israels Land, da det lagdes øde, og over Judas Hus, da de vandrede i Landflygtighed,

4 therefore, I will deliver you to the sons of the East, as an inheritance. And they will arrange their fences within you, and they will place their tents within you. They will eat your crops, and they will drink your milk.

se, derfor giver jeg dig i Eje til Østens Sønner; de skal opslå deres Teltlejre og indrette deres Boliger i dig; de skal spise din Frugt og drikke din Mælk.

5 And I will make Rabbah into the habitation of camels, and the sons of Ammon into the resting place of cattle. And you shall know that I am the Lord.

Jeg gør Rabba til Græsgang for Kameler og Ammons Byer til Lejrsted for Småkvæg; og I skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.

6 For thus says the Lord God: Because you have clapped your hands and stomped your foot, and have rejoiced with all your heart against the land of Israel,

Thi så siger den Herre HERREN: Fordi du klappede i Hænderne og stampede med Fødderne og med dyb Ringeagt godtede dig af Hjertet over Israels Land,

7 therefore, behold, I will extend my hand over you, and I will deliver you as a spoil of the Gentiles. And I will destroy you from the peoples, and I will perish you from the lands, and I will crush you. And you shall know that I am the Lord.

se, derfor udrækker jeg Hånden imod dig og gør dig til Rov for Folkene; jeg udrydder dig af Folkeslagene, udsletter dig af Landene og tilintetgør dig; og du skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.

8 Thus says the Lord God: Because Moab and Seir have said, ‘Behold, the house of Judah is like all the Gentiles!’

Så siger den Herre HERREN: Fordi Moab siger: "Se, det er med Judas Hus som med alle de andre Folk!"

9 therefore, behold, I will open the shoulder of Moab from the cities, from his cities, I say, and from his borders, the famous cities of the land of Beth-Jesimoth, and Baal-meon, and Kiriathaim,

se, derfor lægger jeg Moabs Skrænter åbne, så Byerne går tabt fra dets ene Ende til den anden, Landets Pryd, Bet Jesjimot, Baal-Meon og Hirjatajim.

10 with the sons of Ammon, to the sons of the East, and I will give it to them as an inheritance, so that there may no longer be a remembrance of the sons of Ammon among the Gentiles.

Østens Sønner giver jeg det i Eje, for at det ikke mere skal ihukommes blandt Folkene.

11 And I will execute judgments in Moab. And they shall know that I am the Lord.

Jeg holder Dom over Moab; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.

12 Thus says the Lord God: Because Idumea has taken vengeance, so as to vindicate herself against the sons of Judah, and has sinned grievously, and has sought revenge against them,

Så siger den Herre HERREN: Fordi Edom optrådte hævngerrigt mod Judas Hus og pådrog sig svar Skyld ved at hævne sig på dem,

13 therefore, thus says the Lord God: I will extend my hand over Idumea, and I will take from it both man and beast, and I will make it desolate from the south. And those who are in Dedan will fall by the sword.

derfor, så siger den Herre HEEREN: Jeg udrækker Hånden mod Edom og udrydder Folk og Fæ deraf og gør det øde; fra Teman til Dedan skal de falde for Sværdet.

14 And I will issue my vengeance upon Idumea, by the hand of my people, Israel. And they shall act in Idumea in accord with my wrath and my fury. And they shall know my vengeance, says the Lord God.

Jeg fuldbyrder min Hævn på Edom ved mit Folk Israels Hånd, og de skal handle med Edom efter min Vrede og Harme, og Edom skal kende min Hævn, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.

15 Thus says the Lord God: Because the Philistines have taken vengeance, and have revenged themselves with all their soul, destroying, and fulfilling ancient hostilities,

Så siger den Herre HERREN: Fordi Filisterne optrådte hævngerrigt og med Foragt i Hjertet tog Hævn og hærgede i endeløst Had,

16 because of this, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will extend my hand over the Philistines, and I will destroy those who destroy, and I will perish the remnant of the maritime regions.

derfor, så siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg udrækker Hånden mod Filisterne og udrydder kreterne, og jeg tilintetgør, hvad der er levnet ved Havets Strand.

17 And I will execute great vengeance against them, reproving them in fury. And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I will send my vengeance upon them.”

Jeg tager vældig Hævn oer dem og revser dem i Vrede; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN, når jeg fuldbyrder min Hævn på dem.
