Ezekiel 8
1 And in the sixt yere, in the sixt moneth, and in the fift day of the moneth, as I sate in mine house, and the Elders of Iudah sate before me, the hand of the Lord God fell there vpon me.
I det sjette Aar paa den femte Dag i den sjette Maaned da jeg sad i mit Hus og Judas Ældste sad hos mig, faldt den Herre HERRENS Haand paa mig.
2 Then I beheld, and lo, there was a likenesse, as the appearance of fire, to looke to, from his loynes downeward, and from his loynes vpward, as the appearance of brightnes, and like vnto amber.
Og jeg skuede, og se, der var noget ligesom en Mand; fra hans Hofter og nedefter var der Ild, og fra Hofterne og opefter saa det ud som straalende Lys, som funklende Malm.
3 And he stretched out the likenes of an had, and tooke me by an hearie locke of mine head, and the Spirit lift me vp betweene the earth, and the heauen, and brought mee by a Diuine vision to Ierusalem, into the entry of ye inner gate that lieth toward the North, where remained the idole of indignation, which prouoked indignation.
Han rakte noget som en Haand ud og greb mig ved en Lok af mit Hovedhaar, og Aanden løftede mig op mellem Himmel og Jord og førte mig i Guds Syner til Jerusalem, til Indgangen til den indre Forgaards Nordport, hvor Nidkærhedsbilledet, som vakte Nidkærhed, stod.
4 And beholde, the glorie of the God of Israel was there according to the vision, that I saw in the fielde.
Og se, der var Israels Guds Herlighed; at se til var den, som jeg saa den i Dalen.
5 Then saide he vnto mee, Sonne of man, lift vp thine eyes nowe towarde the North. So I lift vp mine eyes towarde the North, and beholde, Northward, at the gate of the altar, this idole of indignation was in the entrie.
Og han sagde til mig: »Menneskesøn, løft dit Blik mod Nord!« Jeg løftede mit Blik mod Nord, og se, norden for Alterporten stod Nidkærhedsbilledet, ved Indgangen.
6 He said furthermore vnto me, Sonne of man, seest thou not what they doe? euen the great abominations that the house of Israel committeth here to cause me to depart from my Sanctuarie? but yet turne thee and thou shalt see greater abominations.
Og han sagde til mig: »Menneskesøn, ser du, hvad de gør? Store er de Vederstyggeligheder, Israels Hus øver her, saa jeg maa vige langt bort fra min Helligdom. Men du skal faa endnu større Vederstyggeligheder at se!«
7 And he caused me to enter at the gate of the court: and when I looked, beholde, an hole was in the wall.
Saa førte han mig hen til Indgangen til Forgaarden.
8 Then said he vnto me, Sonne of man, digge nowe in the wall. And when I had digged in the wall, beholde, there was a doore.
Og han sagde til mig: »Menneskesøn, bryd igennem Væggen!« Og da jeg brød igennem Væggen, saa jeg en Indgang.
9 And he said vnto mee, Go in, and beholde the wicked abominations that they doe here.
Og han sagde til mig: »Gaa ind og se, hvilke grimme Vederstyggeligheder de øver der!«
10 So I went in, and sawe, and beholde, there was euery similitude of creeping thinges and abominable beasts and all the idoles of the house of Israel painted vpon the wall round about.
Og da jeg kom derind og skuede, se, da var alskens væmmelige Billeder af Kryb og Kvæg og alle Israels Hus's Afgudsbilleder indridset rundt om paa Væggen.
11 And there stoode before them seuentie men of the Ancients of the house of Israel, and in the middes of them stoode Iaazaniah, ye sonne of Shaphan, with euerie man his censour in his hand, and the vapour of the incense went vp like a cloude.
Og halvfjerdsindstyve af Israels Hus's Ældste med Ja'azanja, Sjafans Søn, i deres Midte stod foran dem, hver med sit Røgelsekar i Haanden, medens Røgelseskyens Duft steg op.
12 Then saide hee vnto mee, Sonne of man, hast thou seene what the Ancients of the house of Israel do in the darke, euery one in the chamber of his imagerie? for they say, The Lord seeth vs not, the Lord hath forsaken the earth.
Da sagde han til mig: »Ser du, Menneskesøn, hvad Israels Hus's Ældste øver i Mørke hver i sine Billedkamre? Thi de siger: HERREN ser intet, HERREN har forladt Landet!«
13 Againe he saide also vnto me, Turne thee againe, and thou shalt see greater abominations that they doe.
Og han sagde til mig: »Du skal faa endnu større Vederstyggeligheder at se, som de øver!«
14 And he caused me to enter into the entrie of the gate of the Lords house, which was toward the North: and beholde there sate women mourning for Tammuz.
Saa førte han mig hen til Indgangen til HERRENS Hus's Nordport, og se, der sad Kvinder og græd over Tammuz.
15 Then saide hee vnto me, Hast thou seene this, O sonne of man? Turne thee againe, and thou shalt see greater abominations then these.
Og han sagde til mig: »Ser du det, Menneskesøn? Men du skal faa endnu større Vederstyggeligheder at se!«
16 And he caused me to enter into the inner court of the Lordes house, and beholde, at the doore of the Temple of the Lord, betweene the porche and the altar were about fiue and twentie men with their backs toward the Temple of the Lord, and their faces towarde the East, and they worshipped the sunne, towarde the East.
Saa førte han mig hen til HERRENS Hus's indre Forgaard, og se, ved Indgangen til HERRENS Helligdom mellem Forhallen og Alteret var der omtrent fem og tyve Mænd; med Ryggen mod HERRENS Helligdom og Ansigtet mod Øst tilbad de Solen.
17 The he said vnto me, Hast thou seene this, O sonne of man? Is it a small thing to the house of Iudah to commit these abominations which they do here? for they haue filled the land with crueltie, and haue returned to prouoke mee: and loe, they haue cast out stinke before their noses.
Og han sagde til mig: »Ser du det, Menneskesøn? Har Judas Hus ikke nok i at øve de Vederstyggeligheder her, siden de fylder Landet med Vold og krænker mig endnu mere? Se, hvor de sender Stank op i Næsen paa mig!
18 Therefore will I also execute my wrath: mine eye shall not spare them, neither will I haue pitie, and though they crie in mine eares with a loude voyce, yet will I not heare them.
Men derfor vil ogsaa jeg handle med dem i Vrede; jeg viser dem ingen Medynk eller Skaansel, og selv om de højlydt raaber mig ind i Øret, vil jeg ikke høre dem.«
