Isaiah 27
1 In that day Jehovah, with his sore and great and strong sword, will visit leviathan the fleeing serpent, and leviathan the crooked serpent; and he will slay the monster 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 [there shall be] a vineyard of pure wine; sing concerning it:
På hin Dag skal man sige: Syng om en liflig Vingård!
3 I Jehovah keep it, I will water it every moment; lest any harm it, I will keep it night and day.
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 Fury is not in me. Oh that I had briars [and] thorns in battle against me! I would march against them, I would burn them 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 let him take hold of my strength; let him make peace with me: [yea, ] let him make peace with me.
med mindre man tyr til mit Værn, slutter Fred med mig, slutter Fred med mig.
6 In the future Jacob shall take root; Israel shall blossom and bud, and they shall fill the face of the world with fruit.
På hin Dag skal Jakob slå Rod, Israel skyde og blomstre og fylde Verden med Frugt.
7 Hath he smitten him according to the smiting of those that smote him? Is he slain according to the slaughter of those slain by him?
Har han vel slået det, som de, der slog det, blev slagne, eller blev det myrdet, som deres Mordere myrdedes?
8 In measure, when sending her away, didst thou contend with her: he hath taken [her] away with his rough wind in the day of the east wind.
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 By this, therefore, shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged; and this is all the fruit of the taking away of his sin: when he shall make all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are crumbled in pieces, — the Asherahs and the sun-images 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 is solitary, a habitation abandoned and forsaken like a wilderness; there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume its boughs.
Thi den faste Stad ligger ensom, et folketomt Sted, forladt som en Ørken. Der græsser Ungkvæget, der lejrer det sig og afgnaver Kvistene.
11 When its branches are withered they shall be broken off; women shall come [and] set them on fire. For it is a people of no intelligence; therefore he that made them will not have mercy on them, and he who formed them will shew them no favour.
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 it shall come to pass in that day, that Jehovah shall beat out from the flood of the river unto the torrent of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, [ye] children 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 it shall come to pass in that day, [that] the great trumpet shall be blown; and they shall come that were perishing in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and they shall worship Jehovah in the holy mountain at 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.
