< Ezekiel 34 >

1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
HERRENs Ord kom til mig således:
2 Son of man, prophesy concerning the shepherds of Israel: prophesy, and say to the shepherds: Thus saith the Lord God: Woe to the shepherds of Israel, that fed themselves: should not the hocks be fed by the shepherds?
Menneskesøn, profeter mod Israels Hyrder, profeter og sig til dem: Så siger den Herre HERREN: Ve Israels Hyrder, som røgtede sig selv! Skal Hyrderne ikke røgte Hjorden?
3 You ate the milk, and you clothed yourselves with the wool, and you killed that which was fat: but my flock you did not feed.
I fortærede Mælken, med Ulden klædte I eder, de fede Dyr slagtede I, men Hjorden røgtede I ikke;
4 The weak you have not strengthened, and that which was sick you have not healed, that which was broken you have not bound up, and that which was driven away you have not brought again, neither have you sought that which was lost: but you ruled over them with rigour, and with a high hand.
de svage Dyr styrkede I ikke, de syge lægte I ikke, de sårede forbandt I ikke, de adsplittede bragte I ikke tilbage, de vildfarende opsøgte I ikke, men I styrede dem med Hårdhed og Grumhed.
5 And my sheep were scattered, because there was no shepherd: and they became the prey of all the beasts of the field, and were scattered.
Derfor spredtes de, eftersom der ingen Hyrde var, og blev til Æde for alle Markens vilde Dyr; ja, de spredtes.
6 My sheep have wandered in every mountain, and in every high hill: and my flocks mere scattered upon the face of the earth, and there was none that sought them, there was none, I say, that sought them.
Min Hjord flakkede om på alle Bjerge og på hver en høj Banke, og over hele Jorden spredtes min Hjord, og ingen spurgte eller ledte efter dem.
7 Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the Lord:
Derfor, I Hyrder, hør HERRENs Ord!
8 As I live, saith the Lord God, forasmuch as my flocks have been made a spoil, and my sheep are become a prey to all the beasts of the field, because there was no shepherd: for my shepherds did not seek after my flock, but the shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flocks:
Så sandtjeg lever, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN: Fordi min Hjord blev til Rov, fordi min Hjord blev til Æde for alle Markens vilde Dyr, eftersom der ingen Hyrde var, og Hyrderne ikke spurgte efter min Hjord, og fordi Hyrderne røgtede sig selv og ikke min Hjord,
9 Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the Lord:
derfor, I Hyrder, hør HERRENs Ord!
10 Thus saith the Lord God: Behold I myself come upon the shepherds, I will require my hock at their hand, and I will cause them to cease from feeding the flock any more, neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more: and I will deliver my flock from their mouth, and it shall no more be meat for them.
Så siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg, kommer over Hyrderne og kræver min Hjord af deres Hånd, og jeg sætter dem fra at vogte min Hjord; Hyrderne skal ikke mere kunne røgte sig selv; jeg redder min Hjord af deres Gab, så den ikke skal tjene dem til Æde.
11 For thus saith the Lord God: Behold I myself will seek my sheep, and will visit them.
Thi så siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg vil selv spørge efter min Hjord og tage mig af den.
12 As the shepherd visiteth his hock in the day when he shall be in the midst of his sheep that were scattered, so will I visit my sheep, and will deliver them out of all the places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.
Som en Hyrde tager sig af sin Hjord på Stormvejrets Dag, således tager jeg mig af min Hjord og redder den fra de Steder, hvorhen de spredtes på Skyernes og Mulmets Dag;
13 And I will bring them out from the peoples, and will gather them out of the countries, and will bring them to their own land: and I will feed them in the mountains of Israel, by the rivers, and in all the habitations of the land.
jeg fører dem bort fra Folkeslagene, samler dem fra Landene og bringer dem til deres Land, og jeg, røgter dem på Israels Bjerge, i Kløfterne og på alle Landets beboede Steder.
14 I will feed them in the most fruitful pastures, and their pastures shall be in the high mountains of Israel: there shall they rest on the green grass, and be fed in fat pastures upon the mountains of Israel.
På gode Græsgange vil jeg vogte dem, og på Israels Bjerghøjder skal deres Græsmarker være; der skal de lejre sig på gode Græsmarker, og i fede Græsgange skal de græsse på Israels Bjerge.
15 I will feed my sheep: and I will cause them to lie down, saith the Lord God.
Jeg vil selv røgte min Hjord og selv lade dem lejre sig, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
16 I will seek that which was lost: and that which was driven away, I will bring again: and I will bind up that which was broken, and I will strengthen that which was weak, and that which was fat and strong I will preserve: and I will feed them in judgment.
De vildfarende Dyr vil jeg opsøge, de adsplittede vil jeg bringe tilbage, de sårede vil jeg forbinde de svage vil jeg styrke, og de fede og kraftige vil jeg vogte; jeg vil røgte dem, som det er ret.
17 And as for you, O my flocks, thus saith the Lord God: Behold I judge between cattle and cattle, of rams and of he goats.
Og I, min Hjord! Så siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg vil skifte. Ret mellem Får og Får, mellem Vædre og Bukke.
18 Was it not enough for you to feed upon good pastures? but you must also tread down with your feet the residue of your pastures: and when you drank the dearest water, you troubled the rest with your feet.
Er det eder ikke nok at græsse på den bedste Græsgang, siden I nedtramper, hvad der er levnet af eders Græsgange? Er det eder ikke nok at drikke det klare Vand, siden I med eders Fødder plumrer, hvad der er levnet?
19 And my sheep were fed with that which you had trodden with your feet: and they drank what your feet had troubled.
Min Hjord må græsse, hvad I har nedtrampet, og drikke, hvad I har plumret med eders Fødder!
20 Therefore thus saith the Lord God to you: Behold, I myself will judge between the fat cattle and the lean.
Derfor, så siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg kommer for at skifte Ret mellem de fede og de magre Får.
21 Because you thrusted with sides and shoulders, and struck all the weak cattle with your horns, till they were scattered abroad:
Fordi I med Side og Skulder skubbede alle de svage Dyr bort og stangede dem med eders Horn, til I fik dem drevet ud,
22 I will save my dock, and it shall be no more a spoil, and I will judge between cattle and cattle.
derfor vil jeg hjælpe min Hjord, så den ikke mere skal blive til Rov, og skifte Ret mellem Får og Får.
23 AND I WILL SET UP ONE SHEPHERD OVER THEM, and he shall feed them, even my servant David: he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd.
Jeg sætter een Hyrde over dem, min Tjener David, og han skal vogte dem; han skal vogte dem, og han skal være deres Hyrde.
24 And I the Lord will be their God: and my servant David the prince in the midst of them: I the Lord have spoken it.
Og jeg, HERREN, vil være deres Gud, og min Tjener David skal være Fyrste iblandt dem, så sandt jeg, HERREN, har talet.
25 And I will make a covenant of peace with them, and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land: and they that dwell in the wilderness shall sleep secure in the forests.
Jeg vil slutte en Fredspagt med dem og udrydde de vilde Dyr at Landet, så de trygt kan bo i Ørkenen og sove i Skovene.
26 And I will make them a blessing round about my hill: and I will send down the rain in its season, there shall be showers of blessing.
Og jeg gør dem og Landet rundt om min Høj til Velsignelse, og jeg sender Regn i rette Tid, mine Byger skal blive til Velsignelse.
27 And the tree of the field shall yield its fruit, and the earth shall yield her increase, and they shall be in their land without fear: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have broken the bonds of their yoke, and shall have delivered them out of the hand of those that rule over them.
Markens Træer skal give deres Frugt og Landet sin Afgrøde; trygt skal de bo på deres Jord, og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN, når jeg bryder Stængerne på deres Åg og frelser dem af deres Hånd, som gjorde dem til Trælle.
28 And they shall be no more for a spoil to the nations, neither shall the beasts of the earth devour them: but they shall dwell securely without any terror.
Ikke mere skal de blive til Rov for Folkene, og Landets vilde Dyr skal ikke æde dem; trygt skal de bo, uden at nogen skræmmer dem.
29 And I will raise up for them a bud of renown: and they shall be no more consumed with famine in the land, neither shall they bear any more the reproach of the Gentiles.
Jeg lader en Fredens Plantning vokse op for dem, og ingen skal rives bort af Hunger i Landet, og de skal ikke mere bære Folkenes Hån.
30 And they shall know that I the Lord their God am with them, and that they are my people the house of Israel: saith the Lord God.
De skal kende, at jeg, HERREN deres Gud, er med dem, og at de er mit Folk, Israels Hus, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN
31 And you my flocks, the flocks of my pasture are men: and I am the Lord your God, saith the Lord God.
I er min Hjord, I er den Hjord, jeg røgter, og jeg er eders Gud, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
