< Ezekiel 14 >
1 And men from [the] elderly of Israel come to me, and sit before me.
Nogle af Israels ældste kom til mig og satte sig lige over for mig.
2 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
Saa kom HERRENS Ord til mig saaledes;
3 “Son of man, these men have caused their idols to go up on their heart, and they have put the stumbling-block of their iniquity before their faces; am I inquired of at all by them?
Menneskesøn! Disse Mænd har lukket deres Afgudsbilleder ind i deres Hjerte og stillet det, der blev dem Aarsag til Skyld, for deres Ansigt — skulde jeg lade mig raadspørge af dem?
4 Therefore, speak with them, and you have said to them, Thus said Lord YHWH: Everyone of the house of Israel who causes his idols to go up to his heart, and sets the stumbling-block of his iniquity before his face, and has gone to the prophet—I, YHWH, have given an answer to him for this, for the abundance of his idols,
Tal derfor med dem og sig: Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Hver den af Israels Hus, som lukker sine Afgudsbilleder ind i sit Hjerte og sættet det, der blev dem Aarsag til Skyld, for sit Ansigt og saa kommer til Profeten, ham vil jeg, HERREN, selv svare trods hans mange Afgudsbilleder
5 in order to catch the house of Israel by their heart, in that they have become estranged from off Me by their idols—all of them.
for at gribe Israels Hus i Hjertet, fordi de faldt fra mig med alle deres Afgudsbilleder.
6 Therefore say to the house of Israel, Thus said Lord YHWH: Turn back, indeed, turn back from your idols, and turn back your faces from all your abominations,
Sig derfor til Israels Hus: Saa siger den Herre HERREN: Vend om, vend eder bort fra eders Afgudsbilleder og vend eders Ansigt bort fra alle eders Vederstyggeligheder!
7 for everyone of the house of Israel, and of the sojourners who sojourn in Israel, who is separated from after Me, and causes his idols to go up to his heart, and sets the stumbling-block of his iniquity before his face, and has come to the prophet to inquire of him concerning Me, I, YHWH, have answered him for Myself;
Thi hver den af Israels Hus og af de fremmede, der bor i Israel, som skiller sig fra mig og lukker sine Afgudsbilleder ind i sit Hjerte og sætter det, der blev ham Aarsag til Skyld, for sit Ansigt og saa kommer til Profeten, for at denne skal raadspørge mig for ham, ham vil jeg, HERREN, selv svare;
8 and I have set My face against that man, and made him for a sign, and for allegories, and I have cut him off from the midst of My people, and you have known that I [am] YHWH.
jeg retter mit Aasyn mod den Mand og gør ham til Tegn og Mundheld og udrydder ham af mit Folk; og I skal kende, at jeg er HERREN.
9 And the prophet, when he is enticed, and has spoken a word—I, YHWH, have enticed that prophet, and have stretched out My hand against him, and have destroyed him from the midst of My people Israel.
Men lader Profeten sig lokke til at sige et Ord, saa er det mig, HERREN, der har lokket ham, og jeg udrækker min Haand imod ham og udrydder ham af mit Folk Israel.
10 And they have borne their iniquity: as the iniquity of the inquirer, so is the iniquity of the prophet;
De skal begge bære deres Skyld, Spørgeren og Profeten skal være lige skyldige,
11 so that the house of Israel does not wander from after Me anymore, nor are they defiled with all their transgressions anymore, and they have been to Me for a people, and I am to them for God—a declaration of Lord YHWH.”
for at Israels Hus ikke mere skal fare vild fra mig og blive urent ved alle sine Overtrædelser; da skal de være mit Folk, og jeg vil være deres Gud, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
12 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
HERRENS Ord kom til mig saaledes:
13 “Son of man, when the land sins against Me to commit a trespass, and I have stretched out My hand against it, and broken the staff of bread for it, and sent famine into it, and cut off man and beast from it—
Menneskesøn! Naar et Land troløst synder imod mig, og jeg udrækker min Haand imod det og bryder Brødets Støttestav for det og sender Hungersnød over det og udrydder Folk og Fæ,
14 and [despite] these three men [that] have been in its midst: Noah, Daniel, and Job—they [only] deliver their own soul by their righteousness,” a declaration of Lord YHWH.
og disse tre Mænd var i dets Midte: Noa, Daniel og Job, saa skulde kun de tre redde deres Liv ved deres Retfærdighed, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
15 “If I cause an evil beast to pass through the land, and it has bereaved, and it has been a desolation, without any passing through because of the beast—
Eller lader jeg Rovdyr fare igennem Landet og gøre det folketomt, saa det bliver øde og ingen tør gaa derigennem for de vilde Dyr,
16 [despite] these three men in its midst—[as] I live,” a declaration of Lord YHWH, “they deliver neither sons nor daughters; they alone are delivered, and the land is a desolation.
og disse tre Mænd var i dets Midte — saa sandt jeg lever, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN: De skulde ikke redde deres Sønner eller Døtre; de selv alene skulde reddes, men Landet maatte blive øde.
17 Or [if] I bring a sword in against that land, and I have said: Sword, pass over through the land, and I have cut off man and beast from it—
Eller lader jeg Sværdet komme over dette Land og siger: »Sværdet skal fare igennem Landet!« og udrydder Folk og Fæ deraf,
18 and [despite] these three men in its midst—[as] I live,” a declaration of Lord YHWH, “they do not deliver sons and daughters, for they alone are delivered.
og disse tre Mænd var i dets Midte — saa sandt jeg lever, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN: De skulde ikke redde deres Sønner eller Døtre; de selv alene skulde reddes.
19 Or [if] I send pestilence to that land, and I have poured out My fury against it in blood, to cut off man and beast from it—
Eller sender jeg Pest over dette Land og udgyder min Harme over det med Blod og udrydder Folk og Fæ deraf,
20 and [despite] Noah, Daniel, and Job, in its midst—[as] I live,” a declaration of Lord YHWH, “they deliver neither son nor daughter; they, by their righteousness, [only] deliver their own soul.”
og Noa, Daniel og Job var i dets Midte — saa sandt jeg lever, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN: De skulde ikke redde Søn eller Datter; de selv alene skulde redde deres Liv ved deres Retfærdighed.
21 For thus said Lord YHWH: “Although My four severe judgments—sword, and famine, and wild beast, and pestilence—I have sent to Jerusalem, to cut off man and beast from it,
Men saa siger den Herre HERREN: Og dog, naar jeg sender mine fire grumme Straffedomme, Sværd, Hunger, Rovdyr og Pest, over Jerusalem for at udrydde Folk og Fæ deraf,
22 yet, behold, there has been left an escape in it, who are brought forth, sons and daughters, behold, they are coming forth to you, and you have seen their way, and their doings, and have been comforted concerning the calamity that I have brought in against Jerusalem, all that which I have brought in against it.
se, da skal der levnes en Flok undslupne, som fører Sønner og Døtre ud derfra; se, de skal drage hid til eder, og I skal se deres Færd og Gerninger; da skal I trøste eder over den Ulykke, jeg har bragt over Jerusalem, alt det, jeg har bragt over det.
23 And they have comforted you, for you see their way and their doings, and you have known that I have not done all that which I have done in her for nothing,” a declaration of Lord YHWH.
De skal være eder en Trøst, naar I ser deres Færd og Gerninger, og I skal skønne, at jeg ikke uden Grund gjorde alt, hvad jeg lod det times, lyder det fra den Herre HERREN.
