< Ezekiel 47 >

1 Afterward he brought me again unto the door of the house; and, behold, waters issued out from under the threshold of the house eastward: for the forefront of the house stood toward the east, and the waters came down from under from the right side of the house, at the south side of the altar.
Derpå førte han mig tilbage til tempelets indgang, og se, vand sprang ud under tempelets Tærskel i østlig Retning, thi Templets Forside vendte mod Øst; og Vandet løb ned under Templets Sydside sønden for Alteret.
2 Then brought he me out of the way of the gate northward, and led me about the way without unto the utter gate by the way that looketh eastward; and, behold, there ran out waters on the right side.
Så førte han mig ud gennenm Nordporten og rundt udenom til den ydre Østport, og se, Vand rislede frem fra Sydsiden.
3 And when the man that had the line in his hand went forth eastward, he measured a thousand cubits, and he brought me through the waters; the waters were to the ankles.
Derpå gik Manden ud mod Øst med en Målesnor i Hånden, og da han havde målt 1000 Alen, lod han mig gå gennem Vandet, Vand til Anklerne.
4 Again he measured a thousand, and brought me through the waters; the waters were to the knees. Again he measured a thousand, and brought me through; the waters were to the loins.
Da han atter havde målt 1000 Alen, lod han mig på ny gå gennem Vandet, Vand til Knæene; og da han atter havde målt 1000 Alen, lod han mig på ny gå gennem Vandet, som der nåede til Hoften.
5 Afterward he measured a thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass over: for the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed over.
Da han atter havde målt 1000 Alen, var det en Strøm, som jeg ikke kunde vade over, thi Vandet gik så højt, at man måtte svømme over; det var en Strøm, man ikke kunde vade over,
6 And he said unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen this? Then he brought me, and caused me to return to the brink of the river.
Da sagde han til mig: "Har du set det, Menneskesøn?" Og han førte mig tilbage langs Strømmens Bred.
7 Now when I had returned, behold, at the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other.
Da jeg kom tilbage, se, da var der ved Strømmens Bred en stor Mængde Træer på begge Sider;
8 Then said he unto me, These waters issue out toward the east country, and go down into the desert, and go into the sea: which being brought forth into the sea, the waters shall be healed.
og han sagde til mig: "Dette Vand løber ud i Østerkredsen og ned i Araba, og når det falder ud i Havet, Salthavet, bliver Vandet der sundt;
9 And it shall come to pass, that every thing that liveth, which moveth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live: and there shall be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters shall come thither: for they shall be healed; and every thing shall live whither the river cometh.
alle de levende Væsener, hvoraf det vrimler, skal leve, overalt hvor Strømmen kommer hen, og der skal være en stor Mængde Fisk; thi når dette Vand kommer derhen, bliver Havvandet sundt, og alt skal leve, hvor Strømmen kommer hen.
10 And it shall come to pass, that the fishers shall stand upon it from En-gedi even unto En-eglaim; they shall be a place to spread forth nets; their fish shall be according to their kinds, as the fish of the great sea, exceeding many.
Fiskere skal stå ved det fra En-Gedi til En-Eglajim; et Sted til at udspænde Fiskegarn skal det være; dels Fisk skal være som det store Havs Fisk, såre mange.
11 But the miry places thereof and the marishes thereof shall not be healed; they shall be given to salt.
Men dets Sumpe og Vandhuller skal ikke blive sunde; af dem skal udvindes Salt.
12 And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine.
På begge Flodens Bredder skal der vokse alle Hånde Frugttræer, hvis Blade ikke falder af, og hvis Frugter aldrig får Ende; hver Måned bærer de nye Frugter; thi dens Vand udspringer i Helligdommen. Frugterne skal tjene til Føde og Bladene til Lægedom."
13 Thus saith the Sovereign YHWH; This shall be the border, whereby ye shall inherit the land according to the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph shall have two portions.
Så siger den Herre HERREN: Dette er den Grænse, inden for hvilken I skal udskifte Landet imellem eder efter Israels tolv Stammer; Josef skal have to Lodder.
14 And ye shall inherit it, one as well as another: concerning the which I lifted up mine hand to give it unto your fathers: and this land shall fall unto you for inheritance.
I skal alle uden Undtagelse tage det Land i Eje, som jeg med løftet Hånd svor at give eders Fædre; det skal nu tilfalde eder som Arvelod.
15 And this shall be the border of the land toward the north side, from the great sea, the way of Hethlon, as men go to Zedad;
Således skal Landets Nordgrænse være: Fra det store Hav i Retning af Hetlon til det Sted, hvor Vejen går til Zedad,
16 Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath; Hazar-hatticon, which is by the coast of Hauran.
Hamat, Berota, Sibrajim, mellem Damaskuss og Hamats Områder, Hazar-Enon ved Haurans Grænse.
17 And the border from the sea shall be Hazar-enan, the border of Damascus, and the north northward, and the border of Hamath. And this is the north side.
Grænsen går fra det store Hav til Hazar-Enon, således at Damaskuss Område ligger norden for ved Siden af Hamat. Det er Nordgrænsen.
18 And the east side ye shall measure from Hauran, and from Damascus, and from Gilead, and from the land of Israel by Jordan, from the border unto the east sea. And this is the east side.
Østgrænsen: Fra Hazar-Enon mellem Hauran og Damaskus danner Jordan Grænse mellem Gilead og Israels Land til Havet i Øst, hen til Tamar. Det er Øsfgrænsen.
19 And the south side southward, from Tamar even to the waters of strife in Kadesh, the river to the great sea. And this is the south side southward.
Sydgrænsen: Fra Tamar over Meribas Vand ved Kadesj til Bækken, ud til det store Hav. Det er Sydgrænsen.
20 The west side also shall be the great sea from the border, till a man come over against Hamath. This is the west side.
Vestgrænsen: Det store Hav danner Grænse til tværs over for det Sted, hvor Vejen går til Hamat. Det er Vestgrænsen.
21 So shall ye divide this land unto you according to the tribes of Israel.
Dette Land skal I udskifte iblandt eder efter Israels Stammer;
22 And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inheritance unto you, and to the strangers that sojourn among you, which shall beget children among you: and they shall be unto you as born in the country among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.
I skal ved Lodkastning udskifte det som Arvelod mellem eder og de fremmede, som bor iblandt eder og der har avlet Sønner og Døtre; de skal være eder som ind fødte Israeliter og kaste Lod med eder om Arvelod blandt Israels Stammer.
23 And it shall come to pass, that in what tribe the stranger sojourneth, there shall ye give him his inheritance, saith the Sovereign YHWH.
I den Stamme, hvor den fremmede bor, skal I give ham hans Arvelod, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
