Micah 1
1 Here is the message that the Lord gave to Micah of Moresheth at the time when Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah were kings of Judah. This is what he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.
HERRENS Ord, som, i de Dage da Jotam, Akaz og Ezekias var Konger i Juda, kom til Mika fra Moresjet, og som han skuede om Samaria og Jerusalem.
2 Listen, all the nations! Pay attention, everyone on earth! The Lord God testifies against you from the Lord's holy Temple.
Alle I Folkeslag, hør, lyt til, du Jord, med din Fylde, at den Herre HERREN kan staa som Vidne blandt eder, Herren fra sit hellige Tempel.
3 Look! The Lord is coming, leaving his place and coming down, and is walking on the high places of the earth.
Thi se, fra sit Sted gaar HERREN ud, stiger ned, skrider frem over Jordens Høje;
4 The mountains melt beneath him, the valleys burst apart, like wax in front of a fire, like water rushing down a slope. All this is happening because of the rebellion of the descendants of Jacob, the sins of the people of Israel.
under ham smelter Bjerge, og Dale slaar dybe Revner, som Voks, der smelter i Ilden, som Vand, gydt ned ad en Skrænt —
5 What is the rebellion of the descendants of Jacob? Isn't it what is happening in Samaria? Where are the idolatrous high places of Judah? Aren't they right in Jerusalem?
alt dette for Jakobs Brøde, for Israels Huses Synder. Hvem voldte Jakobs Brøde? Mon ikke Samaria? Hvem voldte Judas Synd? Mon ikke Jerusalem?
6 Therefore I will make Samaria a pile of rubble in a field, a place for planting vineyards. I will roll its stones down into the valley; I will lay bare its foundations.
Samaria gør jeg til Grushob, dets Mark til Vingaardsjord; jeg styrter dets Sten i Dalen, dets Grundvolde bringer jeg for Lyset.
7 All their carved idols will be smashed to pieces. All that was earned by their temple prostitutes will be burned. All of their idols will be destroyed, for what she collected through the earnings of temple prostitutes will be taken away and used to pay other temple prostitutes.
Dets Billeder sønderslaas alle, dets Skøgeløn brændes i Ild; jeg tilintetgør alle dets Afguder; thi af Skøgeløn er de samlet, til Skøgeløn bliver de atter.
8 Because of this I will weep and wail, I will walk barefoot and naked, and will howl like jackals and mourn like owls.
Derfor vil jeg klage og jamre, gaa nøgen med bare Fødder, istemme Klage som Sjakaler, jamrende Skrig som Strudse:
9 Their wound cannot be healed, it has extended to Judah, and reached right to the gates of Jerusalem.
Ulægeligt er HERRENS Slag, thi det naar til Juda, til mit Folks Port rækker det hen, til Jerusalem.
10 Don't mention it in Gath; don't weep at all. People of Beth-le-aphrah, roll in the dust.
Forkynd det ikke i Gat, græd ikke i Bokim! Vælt jer i Støvet i Bet-Leafra!
11 Leave, people of Shaphir, naked and ashamed. People of Zanaan don't come out. People of Beth Ezel mourn, for you have lost your support.
Der stødes i Horn for eder, Sjafirs Borgere; ej gaar Za'anans Borgere ud af deres By. Bet-Ezels Lod bliver Klage, Hug og Ve;
12 The people of Maroth wait anxiously for relief, but disaster has come down from the Lord on the gate of Jerusalem.
og hvor kan Marots Indbyggere haabe paa Lykke? Thi Ulykke kom ned fra HERREN til Jerusalems Porte.
13 Harness the team of horses to the chariot, you people of Lachish, because the sins of the people of Jerusalem began with you, for the sins of Israel were first found in you.
Spænd Hestene for Vognen, I, som bor i Lakisj! Syndens Begyndelse var du for Zions Datter; ja, Israels Overtrædelser fandtes i dig.
14 Send your goodbye gifts to Moresheth. The town of Achzib is a deception to the kings of Israel.
Giv derfor Moresjet-Gat en Skilsmissegave! En svigtende Bæk er Akzibs Huse for Israels Konger.
15 I will bring a conqueror to attack you, people of Moresheth. The leaders of Israel will go to Adullam.
End sender jeg eder en Ransmand, Maresjas Borgere! Til Adullam skal Israels Herlighed komme.
16 Shave your heads, for the children you love will be taken away; make yourselves as bald as a vulture, for they will be exiled far away from you.
Klip dig skaldet over dine elskede Børn, bredskaldet som en Grib; thi de bortføres fra dig.
