< Ezekiel 47 >

1 And he brought me back again unto the door of the house: and, behold, water was issuing out from under the threshold of the house eastward; for the front of the house stood toward the east; and the water came down from under [the threshold], from the right side of the house, to the south 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 did he bring me out by the way of the gate northwards and led me about the way without unto the outer gate by the way that looked eastward: and, behold, the water was running 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 When the man went forth eastward, having the measuring-line in his hand, he measured a thousand cubits, and he led me through the water, the water reaching 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 [cubits], and led me through the water, the water reaching to the knees. Again he measured a thousand [cubits], and led me through, the water reaching 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 And he measured again a thousand [cubits], it being a stream that I could not wade through; for the water was increased, being water fit to swim in, a stream that could not be waded through.
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 did he lead me, and caused me to return to the bank of the stream.
Da sagde han til mig: "Har du set det, Menneskesøn?" Og han førte mig tilbage langs Strømmens Bred.
7 Now when I returned, behold, there were at the banks of the stream 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 eastern district, and go down into the plain, and fall into the sea, [the waters] being carried forth into the sea, so that 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 double-stream shall come, shall live: and the fish shall be [therein] in great abundance; for when this water shall have come thither, [the waters of the sea] shall be healed, and every thing shall live whither the stream 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 by it; from 'En-gedi even unto 'En-'eglayim, there shall be places for the spreading out of nets: after their various kinds shall the fish thereof be, like the fish of the great sea, exceedingly 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 its swamps and its lagoons shall not be healed, for [the production of] salt are they destined.
Men dets Sumpe og Vandhuller skal ikke blive sunde; af dem skal udvindes Salt.
12 And by the stream upon its banks, on this side and on that side, shall grow up all kinds of trees for food, the leaves of which shall not fade, and the fruit of which shall not come to an end, every month shall they bring forth new ripe fruit; because its water is that which issueth out of the sanctuary; and their fruit shall serve for food, and their leaves for remedies.
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 hath said the Lord Eternal, This shall be the boundary, whereby ye shall divide out the land unto 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, every one like the other, [the land] concerning which I lifted up my hand to give it unto your fathers: and this land shall fall unto you for an 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 boundary of the land: On the north side, from the great sea, the road to Chethlon, as far as to Zedad;
Således skal Landets Nordgrænse være: Fra det store Hav i Retning af Hetlon til det Sted, hvor Vejen går til Zedad,
16 Chamath, Berothah, Sibrayim, which is between the boundary of Damascus and the boundary of Chamath; Chazar-hattichon, which is by the boundary of Chavran.
Hamat, Berota, Sibrajim, mellem Damaskuss og Hamats Områder, Hazar-Enon ved Haurans Grænse.
17 And the boundary shall be from the sea to Chazar-'enon, the boundary of Damascus, and the northern part on the north, and the boundary of Chamath. 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 shall ye measure between Chavran and Damascus [on the one side], and between Gil'ad and the land of Israel [on the other side] by the Jordan, from the [north] boundary 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; on the south, from Thamar even to the waters of contention at Kadesh, toward the brook [flowing] into the Great Sea. And this is the south side on the south.
Sydgrænsen: Fra Tamar over Meribas Vand ved Kadesj til Bækken, ud til det store Hav. Det er Sydgrænsen.
20 And the west side shall be the great sea from the [southern] boundary, as far as straight up to Chamath. 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 And ye shall divide this land among yourselves 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 among yourselves, and to the strangers that sojourn in the midst of you, who shall have begotten children in the midst of you; and they shall be unto you as the native born among the children of Israel: with you shall they obtain an inheritance in the midst of 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 whatever tribe the stranger sojourneth, there shall ye give him his inheritance, saith the Lord Eternal.
I den Stamme, hvor den fremmede bor, skal I give ham hans Arvelod, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
