Isaiah 27
1 In that day, the Lord will visit, with his harsh and great and strong sword, against Leviathan, the barred serpent, and against Leviathan, the twisted serpent, and he will slay the whale that is in the sea.
På hin Dag hjemsøger HERREN med sit hårde, vældige, stærke Sværd Livjatan, Den flugtsnare Slange, og ihjelslår Dragen i Havet.
2 In that day, the vineyard of pure wine will sing to them.
På hin Dag skal man sige: Syng om en liflig Vingård!
3 I am the Lord, who watches over it. I will suddenly give drink to it. I will watch over it, night and day, lest perhaps someone visit against it.
Jeg, HERREN, jeg er dens Vogter, jeg vander den atter og atter. For at ingen skal hjemsøge den, vogter jeg den Nat og Dag.
4 Indignation is not mine. Who will be a thorn and a brier to me in battle? I will advance against them. I set them on fire together.
Vrede nærer jeg ikke. Fandt jeg kun Torn og Tidsel, gik jeg løs derpå i Kamp og satte det alt i Brand
5 Or will he, instead, take hold of my strength? Will he make peace with me? Will she make peace with me?
med mindre man tyr til mit Værn, slutter Fred med mig, slutter Fred med mig.
6 As they advance with violence against Jacob, Israel will flourish and spring forth, and they will fill the face of the world with offspring.
På hin Dag skal Jakob slå Rod, Israel skyde og blomstre og fylde Verden med Frugt.
7 Has he struck him with the scourge that he himself used to strike others? Or has he killed in the manner that he himself used to kill his victims?
Har han vel slået det, som de, der slog det, blev slagne, eller blev det myrdet, som deres Mordere myrdedes?
8 You will judge this by comparing one measure to another, when he has been cast out. He has decided this, by his stern spirit, for the day of heat.
Ved at støde det bort og sende det bort trættede han med det; han jog det bort med sin voldsomme Ånde på Østenstormens Dag.
9 Therefore, concerning this, the iniquity of the house of Jacob will be forgiven. And this is the reward of all: that their sin be taken away, when he will have made all the stones of the altar to be like crushed cinders. For the sacred groves and the shrines shall not stand.
Derfor sones Jakobs Brøde således, og dette er al Frugten af, at hans Synd tages bort: at han gør alle Altersten til sønderhuggede Kalksten, at Asjerastøtterne og Solstøtterne ikke mere rejser sig.
10 For the fortified city will be desolate. The shining city will be abandoned and will be left behind like a desert. In that place, the calf will pasture, and in that place, he will lie down, and he will feed from its summits.
Thi den faste Stad ligger ensom, et folketomt Sted, forladt som en Ørken. Der græsser Ungkvæget, der lejrer det sig og afgnaver Kvistene.
11 Its harvest will be crushed by dryness. Women will arrive and teach it, for it is not a wise people. Because of this, he who made it will not take pity on it, and he who formed it will not spare it.
Når Grenene er tørre, kommer Kvinderne og bryder dem af for at tænde Bål. Thi det er et Folk uden Indsigt; derfor kan dets Skaber ikke forbarme sig, dets Ophav ikke være det nådig.
12 And this shall be: in that day, the Lord will strike, from the channel of the river, even to the torrent of Egypt. And you shall be gathered together, one by one, O sons of Israel.
På hin Dag slår HERREN Frugten ned fra Flodens Strøm til Ægyptens Bæk, og I skal opsankes een for een, Israels Børn.
13 And this shall be: in that day, a noise will be made with a great trumpet. And those who had been lost will approach from the land of the Assyrians, with those who had been outcasts in the land of Egypt. And they will adore the Lord, on the holy mountain, in Jerusalem.
På hin Dag skal der stødes i det store Horn, og de tabte i Assyrien og de bortdrevne i Ægypten skal komme og tilbede HERREN på det hellige Bjerg i Jerusalem.
