Ezekiel 34
1 A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
HERRENS Ord kom til mig saaledes:
2 “Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds who lead Israel. Prophesy and tell them that this is what the Lord God says: Disaster is coming to the shepherds of Israel, who only look after themselves, and not the sheep! Shouldn't shepherds make sure their flock is fed?
Menneskesøn, profeter mod Israels Hyrder, profeter og sig til dem: Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Ve Israels Hyrder, som røgtede sig selv! Skal Hyrderne ikke røgte Hjorden?
3 You eat the cream, you use the wool for clothes, and you slaughter the fattened sheep, but you don't feed the flock.
I fortærede Mælken, med Ulden klædte I eder, de fede Dyr slagtede I, men Hjorden røgtede I ikke;
4 You haven't taken care of the weak, healed the sick, bandaged the injured, brought home the strays, or looked for the lost. On the contrary, you ruled them using violence and cruelty.
de svage Dyr styrkede I ikke, de syge lægte I ikke, de saarede forbandt I ikke, de adsplittede bragte I ikke tilbage, de vildfarende opsøgte I ikke, men I styrede dem med Haardhed og Grumhed.
5 They were scattered because they didn't have a shepherd. When they scattered they were preyed on by all the wild animals for food.
Derfor spredtes de, eftersom der ingen Hyrde var, og blev til Æde for alle Markens vilde Dyr; ja, de spredtes.
6 My sheep strayed, going to all the mountains and high hills. They were scattered everywhere, and there was no one to go and look for them.
Min Hjord flakkede om paa alle Bjerge og paa hver en høj Banke, og over hele Jorden spredtes min Hjord, og ingen spurgte eller ledte efter dem.
7 So, you shepherds, listen to what the Lord has to say:
Derfor, I Hyrder, hør HERRENS Ord!
8 As I live, declares the Lord God, because my sheep didn't have a shepherd and were preyed on by all the wild animals for food, and because my shepherds didn't look after my sheep but instead only fed themselves,
Saa sandt jeg 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 so, you shepherds, you listen to what the Lord has to say!
derfor, I Hyrder, hør HERRENS Ord!
10 This is what the Lord God says: Watch out, because I'm condemning the shepherds, and I will take my sheep back and stop them looking after the sheep so they won't be able to feed themselves anymore. I will take away my sheep from them, and I won't let them eat the sheep anymore.
Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg, kommer over Hyrderne og kræver min Hjord af deres Haand, og jeg sætter dem fra at vogte min Hjord; Hyrderne skal ikke mere kunne røgte sig selv; jeg redder min Hjord af deres Gab, saa den ikke skal tjene dem til Æde.
11 For this is what the Lord God says: Watch as I myself will go looking for my sheep, searching to find them.
Thi saa siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg vil selv spørge efter min Hjord og tage mig af den.
12 Just like a shepherd goes looking for his lost sheep when he is with the flock, so I will look for my sheep. I will rescue them from everywhere they were scattered on a dark and dismal day.
Som en Hyrde tager sig af sin Hjord paa Stormvejrets Dag, saaledes tager jeg mig af min Hjord og redder den fra de Steder, hvorhen de spredtes paa Skyernes og Mulmets Dag;
13 I will take them out from among the other nations. I will gather them from the different countries, and bring them back to their own country. Like a shepherd I will have them feed them on the mountains of Israel, in the valleys and everywhere that people live in the country.
jeg fører dem bort fra Folkeslagene, samler dem fra Landene og bringer dem til deres Land, og jeg, røgter dem paa Israels Bjerge, i Kløfterne og paa alle Landets beboede Steder.
14 I will provide them with good pasture and places to graze in the high mountains of Israel. They will also be able to rest there in the good pasture and in the places to graze in mountains of Israel.
Paa gode Græsgange vil jeg vogte dem, og paa Israels Bjerghøjder skal deres Græsmarker være; der skal de lejre sig paa gode Græsmarker, og i fede Græsgange skal de græsse paa Israels Bjerge.
15 I myself will look after my sheep and give them a place to rest, declares the Lord God.
Jeg vil selv røgte min Hjord og selv lade dem lejre sig, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
16 I will go looking for the lost, bring home the strays, bandage the injured, and strengthen the weak. However, I will destroy those who are fat and strong. Because I do what's right, I will be sure to take care of them.
De vildfarende Dyr vil jeg opsøge, de adsplittede vil jeg bringe tilbage, de saarede 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 My flock, this is what the Lord God says to you: Watch, because I will judge between one sheep and the next, between the rams and the goats.
Og I, min Hjord! Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg vil skifte. Ret mellem Faar og Faar, mellem Vædre og Bukke.
18 Aren't you satisfied with feeding in good pasture? Do you have to trample down the rest of the pasture with your feet? Aren't you satisfied to drink the clear water? Do you have to muddy the rest of it with your feet?
Er det eder ikke nok at græsse paa 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 Why does my flock have to feed on what your feet have trampled down, and drink the water that your feet have muddied?
Min Hjord maa græsse, hvad I har nedtrampet, og drikke, hvad I har plumret med eders Fødder!
20 That's why the Lord God says to them: Watch, because I myself will judge between the fat sheep and the skinny sheep.
Derfor, saa siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg kommer for at skifte Ret mellem de fede og de magre Faar.
21 Since you push others around with your sides and your shoulders, and use your horns to attack all the weak ones until you have chased them away,
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 rescue my flock, and they will no longer be your victims. I will judge between one sheep and the next.
derfor vil jeg hjælpe min Hjord, saa den ikke mere skal blive til Rov, og skifte Ret mellem Faar og Faar.
23 I will put one shepherd in charge of them, my servant David, and he will take care of them. He will take care of them and 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 I the Lord will be their God, and my servant David will be their leader. I the Lord have spoken.
Og jeg, HERREN, vil være deres Gud, og min Tjener David skal være Fyrste iblandt dem, saa sandt jeg, HERREN, har talet.
25 I will make an agreement of peace with them, and get rid of the wild animals from the country, so that they can live safely in the wilderness and sleep securely in the forest.
Jeg vil slutte en Fredspagt med dem og udrydde de vilde Dyr at Landet, saa de trygt kan bo i Ørkenen og sove i Skovene.
26 I will bless them and everywhere around my hill. I will send rain at the right time. They will 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 The trees in the orchards will produce their fruit; the earth will grow its crops; and my flock will be live in safety in their country. Then they will know that I am the Lord, when I break their yokes of slavery, and set them free from those who made them slaves.
Markens Træer skal give deres Frugt og Landet sin Afgrøde; trygt skal de bo paa deres Jord, og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN, naar jeg bryder Stængerne paa deres Aag og frelser dem af deres Haand, som gjorde dem til Trælle.
28 They won't be the victims of other nations anymore, and wild animals won't eat them. They will live in safety, and no one will terrorize them.
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 I will make their fields produce remarkable harvests, and they won't suffer famine in their country again or be mocked by others.
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 Haan.
30 Then they will know that I am with them as the Lord their God, and that the people of Israel belong to me, declares 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 You are my sheep, the sheep that I feed. You are my people, and I am your God, declares the Lord God.”
I er min Hjord, I er den Hjord, jeg røgter, og jeg er eders Gud, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
