< Ezekiel 30 >
1 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
HERRENs Ord kom til mig således:
2 Son of man, prophesy and say, Thus says the Lord GOD; Wail all of you, Full of anguish is the day!
Menneskesøn, profeter og sig: Så siger den Herre HERREN: Jamrer: Ak, hvilken Dag!
3 For the day is near, even the day of the LORD is near, a cloudy day; it shall be the time of the heathen.
Thi nær er Dagen, ja nær er HERRENs Dag; det bliver en Mulmets Dag, Hedningernes Tid.
4 And the sword shall come upon Egypt, and great pain shall be in Ethiopia, when the slain shall fall in Egypt, and they shall take away her multitude, and her foundations shall be broken down.
Et Sværd kommer over Ægypten, og Ætiopien gribes af Skælven, når de slagne segner i Ægypten, når dets Rigdom bortføres og dets Grundvolde nedbrydes.
5 Ethiopia, and Libya, and Lydia, and all the mingled people, and Chub, and the men of the land that is in league, shall fall with them by the sword.
Ætioperne, Put og Lud og alt Blandingsfolket, Kub og min Pagts Sønner" skal falde for Sværdet med dem.
6 Thus says the LORD; They also that uphold Egypt shall fall; and the pride of her power shall come down: from the tower of Syene shall they fall in it by the sword, says the Lord GOD.
Så siger HERREN: Alle, som støtter Ægypten, skal falde og dets stolte Herlighed synke sammen; fra Migdol til Syene skal de falde for Sværdet, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
7 And they shall be desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted.
Det skal lægges øde blandt øde Lande, og Byerne skal ligge hen blandt tilintetgjorte Byer;
8 And they shall know that I am the LORD, when I have set a fire in Egypt, and when all her helpers shall be destroyed.
og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN, når jeg sætter Ild på Ægypten og alle dets Hjælpere knuses.
9 In that day shall messengers go forth from me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid, and great pain shall come upon them, as in the day of Egypt: for, lo, it comes.
På hin Dag skal der udgå Sendebud fra mig på Skibe for at indjage det sorgløse Ætiopien Rædsel, og de skal gribes af Skælven over Ægyptens Dag; thi se, den kommer.
10 Thus says the Lord GOD; I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease by the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon.
Så siger den Herre HERREN: Jeg gør Ende på Ægyptens Herlighed ved kong Nebukadrezar af Babel.
11 He and his people with him, the terrible of the nations, shall be brought to destroy the land: and they shall draw their swords against Egypt, and fill the land with the slain.
Han og hans Folk med ham, de grummeste blandt Folkene, skal hentes for at ødelægge Landet; de skal drage deres Sværd mod Ægypten og fylde Landet med slagne.
12 And I will make the rivers dry, and sell the land into the hand of the wicked: and I will make the land waste, and all that is therein, by the hand of strangers: I the LORD have spoken it.
Jeg tørlægger Strømmene, sælger Landet til onde Folk, og ved fremmede ødelægger jeg det med alt, hvad der er deri. Jeg, HERREN, har talet.
13 Thus says the Lord GOD; I will also destroy the idols, and I will cause their images to cease out of Noph; and there shall be no more a prince of the land of Egypt: and I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.
Så siger den Herre HERREN: Jeg tilintetgør Afgudsbillederne og udrydder Høvdingerne af Nof og Fyrsterne af Ægypten; de skal ikke findes mere; og jeg indjager Ægypten Rædsel.
14 And I will make Pathros desolate, and will set fire in Zoan, and will execute judgments in No.
Jeg lægger Patros øde, sætter Ild på Zoan og holder Dom over No.
15 And I will pour my fury upon Sin, the strength of Egypt; and I will cut off the multitude of No.
Jeg udøser min Vrede over Sin, Ægyptens Bolværk, og udrydder Nos larmende Hob.
16 And I will set fire in Egypt: Sin shall have great pain, and No shall be rent asunder, and Noph shall have distresses daily.
Jeg sætter Ild på Ægypten, Syene skal skælve af Angst, der skal brydes Hul på No, og dets Mure skal nedrives.
17 The young men of Aven and of Pibeseth shall fall by the sword: and these cities shall go into captivity.
De unge Mænd i On og Pibeset skal falde for Sværdet og Kvinderne vandre i Fangenskab.
18 At Tehaphnehes also the day shall be darkened, when I shall break there the yokes of Egypt: and the pomp of her strength shall cease in her: as for her, a cloud shall cover her, and her daughters shall go into captivity.
I Takpankes sortner Dagen, når jeg der sønderbryder Ægyptens Herskerstav, og dets stolte Herlighed får Ende der. Selv skal det skjules af Skyer og dets Småbyer vandre i Fangenskab.
19 Thus will I execute judgments in Egypt: and they shall know that I am the LORD.
Jeg holder Dom over Ægypten; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
20 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
I det ellevte År på den syvende Dag i den første Måned kom HERRENs Ord til mig således:
21 Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and, lo, it shall not be bound up to be healed, to put a roller to bind it, to make it strong to hold the sword.
Menneskesøn! Ægypterkongen Faraos Arm har jeg brudt; og se den skal ikke forbindes, ikke læges ved at der lægges Bind om den, så den kunde få Kræfter til atter at gribe Sværdet.
22 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong, and that which was broken; and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.
Derfor, så siger den Herre HERREN: Se, jeg kommer over Farao, Ægyptens Konge, og bryder hans Arme, både den hele og den brudte, og lader Sværdet falde af hans Hånd.
23 And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
Jeg spreder Ægypterne blandt Folkene og udstrør dem i Landene.
24 And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put my sword in his hand: but I will break Pharaoh's arms, and he shall groan before him with the groanings of a deadly wounded man.
Men jeg styrker Babels Konges Arme og lægger mit Sværd i hans Hånd; og jeg bryder Faraos Arme, og han skal stønne for ham på såredes Vis.
25 But I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and the arms of Pharaoh shall fall down; and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall stretch it out upon the land of Egypt.
Jeg styrker Babels Konges Arme, men Faraos skal synke; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN, når jeg lægger mit Sværd i Babels Konges Hånd og han svinger det imod Ægypten.
26 And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and disperse them among the countries; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
Og jeg spreder Ægypterne blandt Folkene og udstrør dem i Landene; og de skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
