Ezekiel 3
1 And he said unto me, Son of man, eat what thou findest; eat this roll, and go, speak unto the house of Israel.
Saa sagde han til mig: »Menneskesøn, slug hvad du her har for dig, slug denne Bogrulle og gaa saa hen og tal til Israels Hus!«
2 So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat that roll.
Saa aabnede jeg Munden, og han lod mig sluge Bogrullen
3 And he said unto me, Son of man, cause thy belly to eat, and fill thy bowels with this roll which I give thee. And I ate, and it was in my mouth as honey for sweetness.
og sagde til mig: »Menneskesøn! Lad din Bug fortære den Bogrulle, jeg her giver dig, og fyld dine Indvolde dermed!« Og jeg slugte den, og den var sød som Honning i min Mund.
4 And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them.
Saa sagde han til mig: »Menneskesøn, gaa til Israels Hus og tal mine Ord til dem!
5 For thou art not sent to a people of strange language, and of difficult speech, [but] to the house of Israel;
Thi du sendes til Israels Folk, ikke til et Folk med dybt Maal og tungt Mæle,
6 not to many peoples of strange language and of difficult speech, whose words thou canst not understand: had I sent thee to them, would they not hearken unto thee?
ikke til mange Haande Folkeslag med dybt Maal og tungt Mæle, hvis Tale du ikke fatter, hvis jeg sendte dig til dem, vilde de høre dig.
7 But the house of Israel will not hearken unto thee, for none of them will hearken unto me. For all the house of Israel are hard of forehead and stiff of heart.
Men Israels Hus vil ikke høre dig, thi de vil ikke høre mig; thi hele Israels Hus har haarde Pander og stive Hjerter.
8 Behold, I have made thy face hard against their faces, and thy forehead hard against their foreheads.
Se, jeg gør dit Ansigt haardt som deres Ansigter og din Pande haard som deres Pander;
9 As an adamant harder than flint have I made thy forehead. Fear them not, neither be dismayed at them, for they are a rebellious house.
som Diamant, haardere end Flint gør jeg din Pande. Frygt ikke for dem og vær ikke ræd for deres Ansigter, thi de er en genstridig Slægt!«
10 And he said unto me, Son of man, all my words which I shall speak unto thee, receive in thy heart, and hear with thine ears;
Videre sagde han til mig: »Menneskesøn, alle mine Ord, som jeg taler til dig, skal du optage i dit Hjerte og høre med dine Ører;
11 and go, get thee to them of the captivity, unto the children of thy people, and speak unto them, and tell them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah, — whether they will hear or whether they will forbear.
og gaa saa hen til dine landflygtige Landsmænd og tal til dem og sig: Saa siger den Herre HERREN! — hvad enten de saa hører eller ej!«
12 And the Spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me the sound of a great rushing, [saying, ] Blessed be the glory of Jehovah from his place!
Saa løftede Aanden mig, og jeg hørte bag mig Larmen af et vældigt Jordskælv, da HERRENS Herlighed hævede sig fra sit Sted,
13 — and the sound of the wings of the living creatures that touched one another, and the sound of the wheels beside them, and the sound of a great rushing.
og Suset af de levende Væseners Vinger, der rørte hverandre, og samtidig Lyden af Hjulene og Larmen af Jordskælvet.
14 And the Spirit lifted me up, and took me away; and I went in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit, and the hand of Jehovah was strong upon me.
Og Aanden løftede mig og førte mig bort, og jeg vandrede bitter og gram i Hu, idet HERRENS Haand var over mig med Vælde.
15 And I came to them of the captivity at Tel-abib, that dwelt by the river Chebar, and I sat where they sat; and I sat there astonied among them seven days.
Saa kom jeg til de landflygtige i Tel-Abib, de, som boede ved Floden Kebar, og der sad jeg syv Dage iblandt dem og stirrede hen for mig.
16 And it came to pass at the end of seven days, that the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,
Syv Dage senere kom HERRENS Ord til mig saaledes:
17 Son of man, I have appointed thee a watchman unto the house of Israel, and thou shalt hear the word from my mouth, and give them warning from me.
Menneskesøn! Jeg sætter dig til Vægter for Israels Hus; hører du et Ord af min Mund, skal du advare dem fra mig.
18 When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt certainly die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, that he may live: the same wicked [man] shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thy hand.
Naar jeg siger til den gudløse: »Du skal visselig dø!« og du ikke advarer ham eller for at bevare hans Liv taler til ham om at omvende sig fra sin gudløse Vej, saa skal samme gudløse dø for sin Misgerning, men hans Blod vil jeg kræve af din Haand.
19 But if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.
Advarer du derimod den gudløse, og han ikke omvender sig fra sin Gudløshed og sin Vej, saa skal samme gudløse dø for sin Misgerning, men du har reddet din Sjæl.
20 And when a righteous [man] doth turn from his righteousness, and do what is wrong, and I lay a stumbling-block before him, he shall die; because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteous acts which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thy hand.
Og naar en retfærdig vender sig fra sin Retfærdighed og gør Uret, og jeg lægger Anstød for ham, saa han dør, og du ikke har advaret ham, saa dør han for sin Synd, og den Retfærdighed, han har øvet, skal ikke tilregnes ham, men hans Blod vil jeg kræve af din Haand.
21 And if thou warn the righteous [man], that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall certainly live, for he hath taken warning; and thou hast delivered thy soul.
Har du derimod advaret den retfærdige mod at synde, og han ikke synder, saa skal samme retfærdige leve, fordi han lod sig advare, og du har reddet din Sjæl.
22 And the hand of Jehovah was there upon me; and he said unto me, Arise, go forth into the valley, and there I will talk with thee.
Siden kom HERRENS Haand over mig der, og han sagde til mig: »Staa op og gaa ud i Dalen, der vil jeg tale med dig!«
23 And I arose, and went forth into the valley, and behold, the glory of Jehovah stood there, like the glory which I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell on my face.
Saa stod jeg op og gik ud i Dalen, og se, der stod HERRENS Herlighed, som jeg havde set den ved Floden Kebar. Da faldt jeg paa mit Ansigt.
24 And the Spirit entered into me, and set me upon my feet; and he spoke with me, and said unto me, Go, shut thyself within thy house.
Men Aanden kom i mig og rejste mig paa mine Fødder. Saa talede han til mig og sagde: Gaa hjem og luk dig inde i dit Hus!
25 And thou, son of man, behold, they shall put bands upon thee, and shall bind thee therewith, and thou shalt not go out among them.
Og du, Menneskesøn, se, man skal lægge Baand paa dig og binde dig, saa du ikke kan gaa ud iblandt dem;
26 And I will make thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy mouth, that thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not be to them a reprover; for they are a rebellious house.
og din Tunge lader jeg hænge ved Ganen, saa du bliver stum og ikke kan være dem en Revser; thi de er en genstridig Slægt.
27 And when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: He that heareth, let him hear; and he that forbeareth, let him forbear: for they are a rebellious house.
Men naar jeg taler til dig, vil jeg aabne din Mund, og du skal sige til dem: Saa siger den Herre HERREN! Saa faar den, der vil høre, høre, og den, der ikke vil, faar lade være; thi de er en genstridig Slægt.
