Ezekiel 5
1 “And as for you, son of man, obtain for yourself a sharp knife for shaving hair, and you shall take it and draw it across your head and across your beard. And you shall obtain for yourself a balance for weighing, and you shall divide the hair.
Og du Menneskesøn! tag dig et skarpt Sværd, som en Barbers Ragekniv skal du tage dig det, og lade det gaa over dit Hoved og over dit Skæg; og du skal tage dig Vægtskaale og dele dem.
2 A third part you shall burn with fire in the midst of the city, according to the completion of the days of the siege. And you shall take a third part, and you shall cut it with the knife all around. Yet truly, the other third, you shall scatter to the wind, for I will unsheathe the sword after them.
En Tredjedel skal du brænde i Ilden midt i Staden, naar Belejringens Dage ere udløbne; og den anden Tredjedel skal du tage og slaa med Sværdet trindt omkring den, og den sidste Tredjedel skal du sprede for Vinden; thi jeg vil uddrage Sværdet efter dem.
3 And you shall take from there a small number. And you shall bind them in the end of your cloak.
Og du skal tage et lidet Antal derfra og binde dem i dine Flige.
4 And again, you shall take from them, and you shall throw them into the midst of the fire, and you shall burn them with fire. And from it, there shall go forth a fire to the entire house of Israel.”
Men af dem skal du igen tage nogle og kaste dem midt i Ilden og opbrænde dem i Ilden; derfra skal udgaa en Ild imod hele Israels Hus.
5 Thus says the Lord God: “This is Jerusalem. I have placed her in the midst of the Gentiles and of the lands all around her.
Saa siger den Herre, Herre: Dette er Jerusalem; midt iblandt Folkene har jeg sat den og Landene trindt omkring den.
6 And she has despised my judgments, so as to be more impious than the Gentiles, and my precepts, more so than the lands that are all around her. For they have cast aside my judgments, and they have not walked in my precepts.”
Men den var genstridig imod mine Bud indtil Ugudelighed mere end Hedningerne, og imod mine Skikke mere end Landene, som ere trindt omkring den; thi de forkastede mine Bud og vandrede ikke efter mine Skikke.
7 For this reason, thus says the Lord God: “Since you have surpassed the Gentiles who are all around you, and have not walked in my precepts, and have not accomplished my judgments, and have not even acted in accord with the judgments of the Gentiles who are all around you:
Derfor, saa siger den Herre, Herre: Efterdi I gøre Uro mere end Hedningerne, som ere trindt omkring eder, og vandre ikke efter mine Skikke og gøre ikke efter mine Bud og gøre heller ikke efter de Hedningers Bud, som ere trindt omkring eder:
8 therefore, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, and I myself will accomplish judgments in your midst, in the sight of the Gentiles.
Derfor, saa siger den Herre, Herre: Se, jeg kommer over dig, ja, jeg, og jeg vil holde Ret i din Midte for Hedningernes Øjne.
9 And I will do in you what I have not done before, and the likes of which I will not do again, because of all your abominations.
Og jeg vil gøre ved dig saaledes, som jeg endnu ikke har gjort, og saadant, som jeg heller ikke skal gøre ydermere, formedelst alle dine Vederstyggeligheder.
10 Therefore, the fathers shall consume the sons in your midst, and the sons shall consume their fathers. And I will execute judgments in you, and I will winnow your entire remnant in every wind.
Derfor skulle Forældrene æde deres Børn i din Midte og Børnene æde deres Forældre; og jeg vil holde Ret hos dig og adsprede alt det overblevne af dig for alle Vinde.
11 Therefore, as I myself live says the Lord God, because you have violated my sanctuary with all your offenses and with all your abominations, I also will break into pieces, and my eye will not be lenient, and I will not take pity.
Derfor, saa sandt jeg lever, siger den Herre, Herre: Efterdi du har besmittet min Helligdom med alle dine Afskyeligheder og med alle dine Vederstyggeligheder: Da vil ogsaa jeg drage mig tilbage, og mit Øje skal ikke spare, og jeg vil heller ikke skaane.
12 One third part of you will die by pestilence or be consumed by famine in your midst. And one third part of you will fall by the sword all around you. Yet truly, one third part of you I will scatter to every wind, and I will unsheathe the sword after them.
En Tredjedel af dig skal dø i Pesten og fortæres ved Hungeren i din Midte, og den anden Tredjedel skal falde for Sværdet trindt omkring dig, og den sidste Tredjedel vil jeg sprede for alle Vinde og uddrage Sværdet efter dem.
13 And I will fulfill my fury, and I will cause my indignation to rest upon them, and I will be consoled. And they shall know that I, the Lord, have spoken in my zeal, when I will have fulfilled my indignation in them.
Saa skal min Vrede fuldkommes, og jeg vil køle min Harme paa dem og tage Hævn; og de skulle kende, at jeg Herren har talt i min Nidkærhed, naar jeg har fuldkommet min Harme paa dem.
14 And I will make you desolate, and a disgrace among the Gentiles, who are all around you, in the sight of all who pass by.
Og jeg vil gøre dig til et øde Sted og til Forhaanelse iblandt Hedningerne, som ere trindt omkring dig, for enhvers Øjne, som gaar forbi.
15 And you shall be a disgrace and a blasphemy, an example and an astonishment, among the Gentiles, who are all around you, when I will have executed judgments in you, in fury and in indignation and with rebukes of wrath.
Og dette skal vorde til Spot og Forhaanelse, til Advarsel og Forskrækkelse for Hedningerne, sop ere trindt omkring dig, naar jeg holder Ret over dig i Vrede og i Harme og med Harmens Tugtelse; jeg Herren, jeg har talt det;
16 I, the Lord, have spoken. At that time, I will send among them the most grievous arrows of famine, which shall bring death, and which I will send so that I may destroy you. And I will gather a famine over you, and I will crush the staff of bread among you.
naar jeg udsender iblandt dem Hungerens onde Pile, som skulle være til Ødelæggelse, hvilke jeg vil sende til at ødelægge eder, og naar jeg fremdeles bringer Hunger over eder og formindsker Brøds Forraad for eder.
17 And I will send among you famine and very harmful beasts, even unto utter ruin. And pestilence and blood shall pass through you. And I will bring the sword over you. I, the Lord, have spoken.”
Og jeg skal sende Hunger og vilde Dyr over eder, som skulle berøve dig dine Børn, og der skal gaa Pest og Blod over dig, og Sværd vil jeg føre over dig; jeg Herren, jeg har talt det.
